The Xia Dynasty.
This was a dynasty that had realized its ambitions in the Eldritch World. It had gathered most of the human race's fortune. Now, it was facing an unprecedented crisis.
He remembered that it was a fine morning.
The palace maid was waiting for Zhou Yunwu to wake up as usual. However, after waiting for a long time, she did not hear any news from the monarch to change his clothes.
Seeing that the morning court was about to begin, the palace maid had no choice but to pass the news to Grand Tutor Meng Junliang.
When the ministers in the hall heard the news, they didn't blame him at all. Instead, they all smiled in relief.
"The monarch finally knows how to sleep in."
"He has been working hard for so long. If not for the medicine, his body would have collapsed."
"Sigh, the world has changed. The monarch is under a lot of pressure."
"Let him sleep more. We'll just wait here."
The atmosphere in the hall was relaxed and peaceful.
However, as time passed, this relaxed and peaceful atmosphere turned into shock and worry.
Something was not right.
No one dared to delay. They rushed to the palace and called for the imperial physician.
They then realized that the monarch had not woken up. However, there was nothing wrong with his body. He was extremely peaceful. His breathing was normal and there were no wounds. It was as if he was just sleeping normally.
The imperial physician was helpless. Even the immortal cultivators were at their wits' end.
Fortunately, the situation was still stable. They had time to think of a solution. However, the situation was getting worse.
The second person to fall into a coma was Grand Tutor Meng Junliang. The third was General Huo Da. Then, the fourth, the fifth …
Those who had fallen into a coma were all key figures in the Xia Dynasty. The once prosperous and huge national machine suddenly lost its system and entered a state of crash.
Everyone's heart was covered by a layer of dark clouds. They could feel that things were developing in a very bad direction. If they were not careful, the world would be in chaos!
"Clang, clang, clang —"
In the palace, melodious music came from the guqin. The sound was soft and gentle. It gradually turned into a high-pitched sound. It was like a mother's call. It came from afar and was very refreshing.
Inside the room, led by Zhou Yunwu, there was a line of sleeping ministers, peacefully receiving the baptism of the zither.
The ones playing the guqin were the disciples of the Linxian Palace. They were led by Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun, and they all looked serious.
They were trying to use the Divine Awakening Tune to wake up the unconscious people.
Now, there was really no other way. This matter was really too strange. It wasn't that they hadn't thought of using violence to wake him up.
Among the ministers lying on the bed, many of them were test subjects. Their faces were swollen like pig heads, but they were still sleeping soundly.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, an ear-piercing sound came about. Everyone's strings snapped. "Poof!" They all vomited blood.
His magic power was scattered and his aura was unstable.
Qin Manyun's eyes were filled with fear. She gasped and said, "This is caused by a very strong Resentful Spirit. This group of people should be imprisoned in the same dream!"
"Heh! Overconfident! A group of Tom, Dick, and Harry dares to destroy the beautiful dream I weaved. I don't care to target you, or else … you'll all die! "
On a nameless mountain peak, a Resentful Spirit in a black cloak slowly descended. Although he was standing there, he seemed to have no physical body. He gave off an ethereal and uncomfortable feeling.
He looked down at the secluded valley and showed a satisfied smile. "This place is beautiful, and the aura is restrained. Yet, it has a natural spiritual aura. It's a good place to hide. I'll choose to enter the dream here!"
After saying that, he appeared in the secluded valley in a flash.
Now that it was the critical moment of entering the dream, he chose to hide to avoid any accidents. As long as his real body was not discovered, no one could break the dream!
Not even the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortals!
Wahahaha …
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he sneered, "Hmm? Who's here? Come out! "
"Great Immortal, don't be agitated. We're harmless!"
The Great Demon led the remnants of the Demons out from the depths of the secluded valley. His face was full of bitterness, and his heart was twitching.
He followed the Demon Master, but the Demon Master died mysteriously. It was not easy for the Demon God to return. He had just woken up and was awesome for two days, but he was gone again.
Now that the world had changed, and everyone was moving. The Great Demon felt that the world was dangerous. He did not want to think about anything else. It was good enough that he was still alive.
But … damn it.
I was ready to hide. It was not easy to find this secluded valley suitable for living in seclusion. I just moved in for a few days, and someone came knocking on my door for no reason?
It seems like I'm being targeted?
That shouldn't be. The fortune-tellers said that I would bring good luck to the Lord.
The Resentful Spirit frowned and smiled evilly. "Fiendish Cultivator? What are you doing here? "
"Ascendant Immortal, to tell you the truth, we used to be a slightly powerful force. However, for some inexplicable reason, we began to decline rapidly. Feeling that we could no longer establish ourselves in this world, we decided to live in seclusion to avoid the terrifying world outside."
The Great Demon was very sincere. He said with tears in his eyes, "Since Great Immortal has taken a liking to this place, we'll just leave. We have absolutely no hostility."
"You're scared out of your wits." The Resentful Spirit smiled mockingly and said disdainfully, "You're too weak."
The Great Demon smiled apologetically and said, "Great Immortal, it's not that we're weak. It's just that this world is too dangerous."
"Hehe, dangerous? You can hide from danger by hiding? Let me tell you, the wisest way to hide is to hug a thick thigh! "
The Resentful Spirit smiled and said proudly, "Fine, we're both Fiendish Cultivators. I'll let you hug this thick thigh of mine. In the future, you won't have to be afraid when you follow me."
The Great Demon was very tactful. He had no choice but to bow and say, "The Great Demon and his clansmen greet Great Immortal."
"Hahaha, a wise choice. With your participation, great things can be expected!"
The Resentful Spirit smiled, "My name is Ancestor Yu. I'm the right-hand man of the Netherworld Ghost Emperor. The Netherworld Ghost Emperor is a Ghost Emperor who can ascend to the Heavenly Dao Realm at any time. Becoming the ruler of a world is just a matter of hooking his finger."
The Great Demon was shocked and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
Has the turning point of my life finally appeared?
Sure enough, a talent like me is a rare commodity no matter where I go.
"Alright, you guys guard around the valley. Unless it's an emergency, don't let anyone disturb me!"
The Great Demon patted his chest, "Great Immortal, don't worry. I guarantee that not even a fly can fly in."
"Very good!"
Ancestor Yu nodded and smiled, "What I'm going to do next will turn the entire Divine Realm upside down. Open your eyes wide and watch the show, hahaha …"
On the official road.
Li Nianfan and the others continued to rush towards the Xia Kingdom. Along the way, they encountered many Resentful Spirits, but they were all easily dealt with. The strange things that happened made Li Nianfan gain a new wave of knowledge.
Qin Chuyue looked at Li Nianfan eagerly and said embarrassedly, "Young Master Li, do you still have that lollipop? I still want it."
Li Nianfan smiled and said, "Yes, go ahead and eat it. But it's better to eat less lollipops. You have to control it."
Qin Chuyue nodded, "En, en, I'll try not to bite it. I'll just suck it."
She took Li Nianfan's lollipop and immediately felt as if she had received a treasure.
Since that night, she realized that some strange memories would appear in her mind from time to time. She didn't know if these memories were the ones that she had lost or were fake, but she could feel that these memories were very important to her.
Moreover, with the appearance of these memories, her cultivation was increasing in a very terrifying way. It was as if something was awakening. She didn't need to cultivate and had already reached the Out-of-Body Stage from the Nascent Soul Stage!
"Young Master Li's lollipop …"
She carefully stared at the lollipop in her hand. Her mind was in a mess. There were too many doubts and puzzles, but they were all hidden in her heart. "How mysterious."
"Wuwuwu —"
Just as the four of them were walking, a burst of crying suddenly came from the front. The sound came from afar and approached, as if countless people were crying at a funeral. It made one's heart flutter.
A gust of cold wind suddenly blew, and a group of people suddenly appeared at the end of the horizon.
They were all wearing white mourning clothes, and their faces were as pale as paper. The people in front held white flags high, and white ribbons fluttered in the wind. It was clearly broad daylight, but there was a chill that made one feel uneasy. It was indescribably strange.
On both sides of the group, there were people playing suona. In the middle, there was a coffin, and they were walking forward step by step.
Under the sunlight, the void in front of them seemed to be distorted. Their speed seemed to be extremely slow, but unknowingly, they were already not far away from the group, and were heading straight for them.
Qin Chuyue's face darkened. She took a deep breath and said solemnly, "What dense ghost energy! It's broad daylight, and they're carrying a coffin. They're not easy to deal with. "
However, at this moment, a bright light suddenly shone down from the sky. A vast golden halo lit up in the distance. "How dare you vengeful spirit, you dare to show off your slight skill in front of an expert? Watch out for my Mighty Heavenly Dragon!"
