The large whirlpool in the God Burial Abyss had never changed. More than half a year ago, when a gigantic eye suddenly appeared in the middle of the whirlpool, the center of the God Burial Abyss returned to silence. It was an eternal darkness that made people despair. It gave people the feeling that it was going to devour everything.
Another month passed after the Lin family left the God Burial Abyss.
Over this month, the Elders of the various large factions were waiting anxiously. They were worried that the final outcome would be the same as the Shen Tu family clan's, with a pile of corpses coming out.
Until one day, the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance flashed, as if the entrance was about to open again.
"Is it finally going to end!?"
The Elders of the various large family clans perked up. After nearly a year of waiting, they were finally going to reap the fruits of their labor.
The vibrations of the light became more and more intense. Finally, with a flash of red light, two figures were ejected from the Great Empress mystic realm.
The legendary figures of the Tian Yuan world, who were already prepared for battle, focused their eyes on them. What they saw made their expressions change. The two people that suddenly appeared looked extremely ferocious and terrifying!
Their bodies were wrapped in tattered gray robes. Their hair was so sparse that there were only about a dozen strands left, like weeds. The flesh on their faces was already in a half-rotten state. Their skin and flesh were curled up, and their bodies exuded the stench of a corpse.
These two people looked like they had crawled out of a coffin.
"Who are you!?"
Against these two living zombies that suddenly appeared, the legendary figures of the Tian Yuan world were on high alert. These two people did not look like cultivators that had entered the Great Empress mystic realm, but they had come out of the Great Empress mystic realm. Could they be monsters from the Great Empress mystic realm?
"Their bodies seem to be dead, but their souls are still alive. To think that such a thing could happen with two bodies that have lost all signs of life. If a typical person's body was like this, they would have long been dead."
A legendary figure from a faction said as he noticed the two people's tattered gray robes. On the gray robes, there were two red crescent moons embroidered on them.
Although the robes were tattered, the two crescent moons were as red as blood. It was shocking.
"It's the laws of time …"
A white-haired elder with a high cultivation level suddenly said. This person had a certain understanding of the laws of time.
The laws of time were profound and unfathomable. In the Tian Yuan world, there were very few martial legacies that could study the laws of time. Those that could understand the mysteries of time were all geniuses.
"Law of Time?"
Many people looked at the white-browed elder in confusion.
"These two people have traces of the Laws of Time on their bodies. If this old man's guess is correct, they should have been sealed in a time enchantment. In the enchantment, time passes at an accelerated rate. In the outside world, it might only be a few short months, but they have experienced tens of thousands of years. This has caused their bodies to rapidly age and rot. This is an extremely cruel method of killing people that can be used after cultivating the Laws of Time. This is because people who are struck by the Laws of Time will experience tens of thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years of loneliness. They will slowly die of old age.
"It's incredible that they're still alive and haven't died from a mental breakdown!"
Their bodies had become like this because they had been struck by the Laws of Time. If that was the case, then they really might be Trial Challengers!
For the Trial Challengers to become like this, it was equivalent to them being crippled. Many Elders were worried that they were disciples of their own family clans. Hence, they began to pay attention to their attire, in order to infer their origins.
However, the gray robes that were embroidered with a blood-colored crescent clearly did not belong to any of their factions.
Where did they come from? The Shen Tu family clan had invited such people for the Great Empress mystic realm's trials?
Many people noticed the expressions of the Shen Tu family clan's Elders, but they all looked confused. Clearly, they were confused about the two uninvited guests.
"Can you understand what I'm saying? Who are you? "
Shen Tu Jue asked. His voice was infused with Yuan Qi, so it had a powerful deterrent force. Ordinary juniors would feel their blood flow accelerate just by hearing Shen Tu Jue's voice. They could not withstand the power in his voice.
Shen Tu Jue was using this method to exert pressure on the two living zombies. However, the two of them did not seem to notice this voice. Their gloomy eyes had a heart-palpitating numbness in them, as if they had lost all signs of life.
"Do you know this person? Tell me, how did he die!? "
Shen Tu Jue pointed at Shen Tu Nantian's corpse. Although a month had passed, Shen Tu Nantian's cultivation level was profound. Furthermore, with the protection of relics and medicine, his corpse did not show any signs of decay. Instead, it looked lifelike.
From Shen Tu Jue's point of view, just the Lin family alone did not have the ability to kill Shen Tu Nantian. As for the other factions, due to their soul contracts with the Shen Tu family clan, they could not plot against Shen Tu Nantian.
Then, the sudden appearance of the two living zombies was a great suspect!
When the two gray-clothed people saw Shen Tu Nantian's corpse, they suddenly moved their eyeballs. In their sunken and withered eye sockets, the pale and bloodshot eyeballs moved in a very strange manner. It was as if a sealed zombie had suddenly come back to life.
Even though the people present were legendary figures of the Tian Yuan world, some of them still panicked when they saw the two living zombies.
The two gray-clothed people did not say a word as they suddenly walked towards Shen Tu Jue. To be precise, they floated over.
The torrent of the God Burial Abyss' whirlpool did not seem to affect them at all. The two gray-clothed people did not make any movements, but their bodies remained motionless. They floated forward in a straight line, as if they were ghosts.
Shen Tu Jue was after all a Grand Elder of the Shen Tu family clan. He had seen all sorts of strange scenes. He only had a sullen expression as his perception locked onto the two gray-clothed people. He did not say a word.
Only when the two gray-clothed people approached Shen Tu Jue did people realize that they were not coming for Shen Tu Jue, but for Shen Tu Nantian!
The two of them came in front of the already dead Shen Tu Nantian.
"The corpse … I want it …"
A gray-clothed person suddenly said. His voice was hoarse and unpleasant to the ears, like the cry of a dying owl.
"What!?"
Upon hearing that they wanted Shen Tu Nantian's corpse, the Thousand Hand Granny jumped in front of Shen Tu Nantian's corpse like an old cat that had its fur standing on end. "You are courting death!"
The two gray-clothed people did not say a word. One of them suddenly threw out a black beam of light. Shen Tu Jue used his Yuan Qi to envelop the black beam of light and received it.
On a closer look, it was a black jade scroll. On the front of the jade scroll, there was a complicated "Alliance" word.
As he sank his perception into it, Shen Tu Jue immediately knew what it was.
"The Martial Alliance's relic jade scroll?"
In the Tian Yuan world, there were many top ranked factions. These factions would not hesitate to kill each other in order to compete for wonderlands and resources. In order to obtain a more advantageous outcome in these battles, some factions would band together, forming alliances.
And among them, the largest and most important alliance was the Martial Alliance located in the center of the Tian Yuan world.
To dare use the Martial Alliance's name without any embellishments was proof of the alliance's strength.
The Martial Alliance usually only accepted sects, and rarely accepted family clans. The alliance used desolate bone relics and elixirs as its currency. As for the relic jade scroll, it was the currency code that recorded the number of relics.
With the relic jade scroll in hand, as long as one went to the Martial Alliance's headquarters, they could use the relic jade scroll to exchange for a corresponding number of relics.
This black relic jade scroll could be exchanged for ten eighth-grade relics or a ninth-grade relic.
A ninth-grade relic was extremely valuable. In the Martial Alliance's relic vault, there were even ninth-grade relics that could extend a warrior's lifespan by a small amount!
This was of course a great temptation for Shen Tu Jue.
For a Great Emperor, extending his lifespan by a few decades was an impressive matter.
Shen Tu Jue was immediately tempted. He thought highly of Shen Tu Nantian, but it was mostly because of benefits, and not because of feelings. Shen Tu Nantian was already dead, so his corpse was of no value to Shen Tu Jue. Using it to exchange for a ninth-grade relic from the Martial Alliance was definitely a great deal.
To exchange a ninth-grade relic for the corpse of a Dao Seed realm junior, these two mysterious people were too extravagant. This made their identities even more mysterious.
"What do you want the corpse for? Are you planning on possessing it? "
The two gray-clothed men's bodies were already dead, and only their souls were alive. To cure themselves, the only way was to possess someone else's body. And a well-preserved genius corpse that still had a sliver of vitality was most suitable.
Hearing that Shen Tu Jue was tempted, the Thousand Hand Granny's expression changed. However, her status was far lower than Shen Tu Jue's, so she was powerless to stop this matter.
One of the gray-clothed men nodded in a daze. With a flick of his finger, the black jade scroll landed in Shen Tu Jue's hand.
With a scan of his soul, Shen Tu Jue once again confirmed that there was no problem with the black jade scroll's authenticity. He was in a good mood as he handed Shen Tu Nantian's corpse to the two living zombies.
The two of them used their nearly rotting hands to grab Shen Tu Nantian. One of them pinched Shen Tu Nantian's chin, opening his mouth.
The two living zombies had blank expressions. If it was a timid person, even if they were already dead, they would probably come back to life from being grabbed by them.
The living zombie that pinched Shen Tu Nantian's chin began to emit wisps of black gas. This black gas was accompanied by the stench of a corpse. Even the layers of seawater could not isolate it. It was nauseating.
This black gas slowly seeped into Shen Tu Nantian's skin and began to occupy his body.
"It's a Yin specter!"
Many of the legendary Tian Yuan world figures present were knowledgeable people. They recognized that the souls of the two living zombies had already been refined into Yin specters.
Yin specters could no longer be considered humans. They lived in a half-human, half-ghost lifeform. The advantage was that they could live longer, and they could exist without a body.
The swarthy youth that had his body destroyed by the God Advent Tower's Item Spirit, but he was still able to sneak attack Yi Yun and Lin Xintong. He was also a Yin specter.
"So it's a Yin specter. No wonder their bodies are rotting without dying. Shen Tu Nantian's corpse will become the new vessel for their Yin specter bodies."
