"I have to thank you, Fellow Daoist Xu, for making things convenient for me." Feng Ang thanked the Empress.
The Empress peeled a mango. "You must want something from the Human Emperor's mausoleum. Since the Paragon allowed you to enter, I have nothing to say. However, I asked the Demon Emperor, and he only said that he would give you a chance to enter, but he didn't say that you would get what you want. Whether you can get what you want will depend on your own ability. I won't ask, but I won't be polite with you when the time comes."
Feng Ang smiled. "Fellow Daoist Xu is the Human Emperor's direct disciple, so it makes sense that you would have the treasures he left behind. However, the Human Emperor has been dead for many years, and Fellow Daoist Xu is his successor, so some things are not safe.
I believe that Fellow Daoist Chen doesn't plan to return empty-handed after entering the Human Emperor's mausoleum, right? When the time comes, Fellow Daoist Xu can join forces with me, and we can both get what we want. "
The Empress sipped the mango juice and said, "Worry about yourself."
As they spoke, Chen Luoyang arrived.
The Empress puffed up her cheeks. "Everyone is here. Let's go."
She paused, and with a flash of purple light, a circle of light appeared.
Two humans and one demon took a step forward and stepped into the circle. Then, their figures disappeared from where they were.
After they disappeared, a few people appeared in their place.
An old man and a woman looked at the fading circle of light, lost in thought.
Behind them were "Rain Master" Cheng Shuzhi, Prince Fengning Xu Qizhen, and other high-level experts of the Eastern Zhou.
"Elder Yun, what should we do next …" Xu Qizhen said softly.
The old man in the lead was the Sky River Sword Immortal.
After more than a year of recuperation, his injuries had gradually healed, and he no longer looked as weak as before.
However, at this moment, the old man's brow was furrowed with worry.
"This matter involves the Great Demons of the Mountain and Sea Realm," the Sword Immortal said Slowly. "We can't act rashly. The Paragon of the two Realms will make a decision."
Beside him, another Righteous Faction giant, Crane Deity Li Hushuang, also had a worried look on his face, "Emperor Zhou's trip is of great importance and will affect the long term. Perhaps Elder Yun, you should come along so that you can take care of him."
"It's hard to predict how the two Supremes of the two Realms will react if I go with them. If we're not careful, it might backfire." The old Sword Immortal sighed. "Now, Ruotong can only rely on herself."
Standing behind Chen Luoyang was Crimson Dust Autarch.
Standing behind Feng Ang was Supremacy of the Mountains and Seas.
This was the helplessness of Eastern Zhou.
The Empress herself was the direct descendant of the Human Emperor, but if she wanted to open the Mausoleum of the Human Emperor and inherit the orthodoxy, she had to be wary of the Demon Venerable and the Demon Venerable.
Otherwise, she could have gone to retrieve the emperor's relic by herself. Why would she need to invite Chen Luoyang and Feng Ang to go together?
The Demon Venerable and the Beast Venerable were Chen Luoyang's and Feng Ang's tickets.
To the Empress of the East Zhou Dynasty, the successor of the Human Emperor and the successor of the Human Emperor after a lifetime, the difference between these two words was like heaven and earth.
It was meaningless to complain about why the Demon Venerable was interested in something in the Mausoleum of the Human Emperor or envious of Chen Luoyang and Xian Tian Palace's luck in the Innate Tomb. Eastern Zhou could only face it and strive to do its best within the current framework to maximize its own benefits.
Crane Deity hesitated for a moment and said, "About the Demon Venerable …"
Obviously, because of the information provided by Jiang Yi, she had doubts about whether the Demon Venerable was still alive or not.
The old Sword Immortal understood the meaning behind her words and he said softly, "At times like this, the more important it is to stabilize the Demon Venerable. For the entire Human World, we are bound together for good or bad."
Crane Deity nodded.
Cheng Shuzhi and the others also remained silent.
"Though there are many forces under the Demon Sovereign, they are all tied to him. Now that he is gone, the Black Water Extreme Palace, Yan Ran Mountain and the Ancient God's Land are all empty, which may attract the attention of others," said the Eastern Zhou Old Lord, Xu Qizhen.
"It seems dangerous, but it is actually safe. On one hand, we have to worry about the Demon Sovereign's revenge. On the other hand, the Demon Sovereign is not without helpers. It's just that he wiped out the Black Water Extreme Palace, Yan Ran Mountain and Southern Chu all by himself, making everyone think that he will only do it alone." Cheng Shuzhi moved his sore joints, "Cang Long Island Lord and Fu Sang Island Lord may feel uneasy because of the Demon Sovereign's ambition and expansion, but Sword Master North Dark will not."
He pointed at the sky above him, "Besides, there is still a Mad Sovereign suppressed by the Demon Sovereign. Back then, he helped the Demon Sovereign outside the Xian Tian Palace.
Though it was just a fleeting moment, it's better not to overlook it. "
The Eastern Zhou Empire's people nodded silently.
An old general among the crowd said, "Mister Cheng is right, but the Demon Sovereign also has many worries."
He was one of the five pillars of the Eastern Zhou Empire, the Great General of Zhenyuan, Hu Gang, who led the army to invade the Western Qin.
"He swept through the Black Water Extreme Palace, Yan Ran Mountain and Southern Chu in a row. His momentum was terrifying, as if he could swallow the world. But to be honest, the only hard battle was at Yan Ran Mountain." The old commander said in a deep voice, "The whereabouts of Black Water Extreme Palace's' Demon Queen 'Ji Tianqiong and Southern Chu's Cheng Hui are still unknown. It's not impossible for them to make a comeback. Even the Ancient God Church that he started, Jiang Yi, who was replaced by him, might not be willing to give up if she didn't die.
Cheng Shuzhi smiled bitterly, "You are right, Elder Hu. But if these old men don't show up, it bodes ill rather than well …"
The crowd sighed.
If the three giants — Ji Tianqiong, Jiang Yi, and Cheng Hui — joined forces, Chen Luoyang would only be able to rely on the Ancient Formation of Emperor Xi to protect a piece of land. It would be difficult for him to protect the vast territory under his command. His rule could collapse at any time.
However, a year had passed, and none of the three had shown up in the mortal world. It was hard to have any hope for them.
On the contrary, Chen Luoyang was still doing well. Now he was enjoying the fruits of others' labor, reaching out to the Human Emperor's Mausoleum.
Then there was the Great Demon Feng Ang from the Mountain and Sea Realm. They could only hope that His Majesty could withstand it.
Everyone looked to the east, in the direction of the sea.
In the mortal world, all kinds of rumors were spreading.
Whether it was Chen Luoyang or the Eastern Zhou Empress, they were both influential figures in the mortal world. Any move they made could shake the entire mortal world.
Together with the Great Demon Feng Ang, they attracted even more attention.
However, whether it was the Eastern Zhou Empire or Chen Luoyang's subordinates, all news was strictly sealed. The outside world could only get limited information in a short time. It was limited to the three meeting in the Eastern Zhou Empire's capital, Heavenly Seal City.
The more it was so, the more curious people became.
The mortal world, which had been peaceful for a year and a half, was stirred up again.
Some sharp people immediately realized that the peace was over, and a storm was coming.
The person who caused the storm was now above the waves of the Eastern Sea.
Chen Luoyang and Feng Ang Silence sensed the waves of the boundless sea, but they could not find any obvious information.
With the help of the two Human Emperor's decrees, Chen Luoyang could vaguely sense something, but it was like a cloud, and it was difficult to find the exact trace.
The Eastern Zhou Empress seemed to be familiar with the way, and she walked forward on the waves. "In the depths of the distant sea, we have to continue forward."
The two people and the demon went deeper into the sea.
With their cultivation level, the horizon was very close.
But the boundless sea seemed endless.
"The space here, to a certain extent, is chaotic …" Chen Luoyang nodded to himself.
It was no wonder that this place was filled with danger even for powerhouses at the giant level.
Many times, the sea and the sea of stars seemed to overlap.
After walking for a long time, the Empress suddenly descended. "We're almost there."
She fell into the sea, and the waves naturally parted, and her body continued to descend.
Chen Luoyang and Feng Ang followed behind her, and they entered the sea together.
The Empress did not completely descend to the bottom of the sea, but stopped in the sea, and then reached out a palm.
In her palm, there was a faint flash of light, and then a mysterious and simple seal was outlined.
The seal extended and expanded in all directions, as if it had become one with the sea.
But then nothing happened.
It was as if the Eastern Zhou Empress was in the wrong place.
The Empress did not say a word, and only stood in the sea in Silence.
Chen Luoyang and Feng Ang did not rush her, and while waiting patiently, they observed carefully.
After a while, they gradually began to see some clues.
In the surrounding sea, there was a fine and unique Spiritual Qi, which gathered into small light spots, and came to Empress Xu Ruotong's side, and merged with the light that extended from the seal in her palm to the sea.
With this process, the originally purple light gradually turned azure, and the light was like silk, floating in the sea.
Then, the blue light returned to the Empress's palm.
At this time, the seal in the Empress's palm also turned blue, and the blue light flickered and fluttered.
The Empress raised her hand again, and the light of the seal shone in all directions. The originally illusory light gradually formed a scene in the sea that seemed real and illusory.
As time passed, everything here became more and more solid, and became solid.
But also during this process, Chen Luoyang and the other two gradually felt that the boundless sea began to shake violently.
Not only the sea around them, but the entire sea, everywhere, without exception, was shaking, and even the entire Mortal World seemed to be shaking.
At this time, the light and shadow in front of Chen Luoyang had become solid, and it looked like a large group of corals.
"Let's go." At this time, the Eastern Zhou Empress put away the seal in her palm, and her body moved forward, and her whole body merged into the corals.
After she entered, there was a faint flash of purple light on the corals.
Seeing this, Chen Luoyang and Feng Ang also chose the place where the purple light was, and merged into the corals.
After the light disappeared, they found that they were in a passage with the Eastern Zhou Empress.
Looking back, it was also a passage.
"There is no clear entrance here, and we don't know where we will land. But this place is one of the most convenient places to move forward, and this strange door will close soon." The Empress looked at them, and said as if nothing had happened, "After I leave, it will close very soon. If you have other companions, then please hurry."
Her eyes swept over Chen Luoyang and Feng Ang, "In fact, it seems that someone has entered now, and landed somewhere else."
Chen Luoyang didn't care, "As you wish."
Feng Ang smiled, "Then let's move forward as soon as possible, in case someone gets there first."
