Many experts had stood out to follow the rebel army not because they approved of them, but because they were forced by the situation!
The rebel army outnumbered Leng Ningshuang and the rest. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Leng Ningshuang and the rest were doomed. However, they did not expect Qin Yang to stand out at the crucial moment.
Following Qin Yang would increase their chances of survival!
Furthermore, Qin Yang had asked Leng Ningshuang to ensure their safety. If they became Qin Yang's bodyguards, the Frost City would be spared from punishment.
Under such circumstances, it was normal for many experts to choose to become Qin Yang's bodyguards.
In just a few seconds, the number of experts that had rushed to Qin Yang's side had reached 50,000.
"Stop! Divine Doctor Xiao only wants 50,000 people. Why are you still standing out?!"
"Divine Doctor Xiao, we can't exceed 50,000 people!"
The rebel army's leaders' faces darkened. If they did not step out to stop it, more than half of them would have chosen to become Qin Yang's bodyguards.
Qin Yang said, "I just said that I only want 50,000 bodyguards. Those who stood out, go back."
Instantly, the experts that were left behind felt their hearts being stabbed. They were depressed. They had only hesitated for a moment and the time limit was already full!
That was 50,000 people, and they did not manage to grab hold of it!
"Divine Doctor Xiao, you said that if we have the preventive medicine, we will take as many people as the Frost Corps!"
"With Divine Doctor Xiao's status, you won't go back on your words, right?"
One of the rebel army's leaders asked.
Qin Yang said indifferently, "Don't worry. Since I have made such a promise, I will not go back on my words! I will conduct research in the remaining time and provide some corpses to me. "
"Alright!"
Leng Ningshuang quickly provided Qin Yang with many corpses. They had lost more than 700,000 experts, and all of them were suffering from similar symptoms.
The corpses that Leng Ningshuang provided to Qin Yang were of different cultivation levels, ages, genders, and races. It was convenient for Qin Yang to conduct research on them.
"Don't act recklessly from now on. Otherwise, it will affect the progress of the research and many more people will die."
With that, Qin Yang entered the Grandmist Fortune Pagoda and entered the Time Array.
With the time acceleration of 30 million times, Qin Yang quickly began to study the corpses.
"There are no wounds, and everything seems to be normal inside his body."
Qin Yang was puzzled. He had examined more than ten corpses, and all of them were the same. There were no injuries on their bodies, and there were no injuries inside their bodies. Qin Yang was very familiar with plagues, and he immediately ruled out this possibility!
"If it's not a plague, then what is it?"
"In the Ancient Shura Realm, the Heavenly Dao shouldn't kill people like that. It's against the rules!"
Qin Yang thought to himself.
Exalted Celestial Asura was the original Heavenly Dao of the Eternal Realm. He had brought the Amber Annihilation Sword into the Ancient Asura Realm and negotiated with the other top powerhouses. He had used the Amber Heaven Cleaving Sword and some other items to lure a large number of powerhouses into the Ancient Asura Realm. The remaining powerhouses would die inside, and Exalted Celestial Asura would become stronger.
However, Exalted Celestial Asura absolutely couldn't kill indiscriminately. Otherwise, how could the top powerhouses who had made an agreement with Exalted Celestial Asura not have any objections?
They didn't let people enter the Ancient Asura Realm to die.
700,000 powerhouses had died. This wasn't a small matter. If Exalted Celestial Asura violated the rules, it would have a great impact on him.
"If there's no problem with their bodies, then it's very likely that there's a problem with their souls."
"But their souls have already perished."
Qin Yang muttered to himself. He focused his energy on searching for the remnants of the souls in these powerhouses' bodies.
"Something's not right."
Qin Yang frowned. If their souls were destroyed, even if they were completely destroyed, there should still be a trace of soul power left in their bodies!
However, Qin Yang didn't find such a thing!
One had to know that he was now a peak ten-star powerhouse, and he was also very skilled in alchemy. If others couldn't find any traces of soul power, they might think they weren't skilled enough. However, Qin Yang didn't find anything. He suspected that these people's souls might not have been destroyed.
"Ning Shuang, before they died, did they feel any special power?"
Qin Yang asked via voice transmission.
Leng Ning Shuang was also a peak late-stage ten-star powerhouse, and she was very concerned about this matter. She must have paid attention to this matter.
"Divine Doctor Xiao, no."
"I didn't feel any special power and they died one by one."
Leng Ning Shuang said bitterly.
Qin Yang's eyes flickered. With Leng Ning Shuang's strength, she didn't feel any special power at all. The souls of those powerhouses shouldn't have been summoned away!
"Ning Shuang, did they die at the same time? Was there a gap of one hundredth of a second, or even one ten-thousandth of a second?"
"Divine Doctor Xiao, no."
A thought suddenly appeared in Qin Yang's mind. Something might have entered their bodies and silently devoured their souls!
This would explain their strange deaths. Because their souls were directly devoured, there wouldn't be any soul power left!
'Ordinary beasts definitely don't have such strength.'
Qin Yang thought in his heart. If the beasts here had the strength to kill seven hundred thousand powerhouses without anyone noticing, then it would be meaningless for the powerhouses from the outside world to enter this place!
According to Qin Yang's understanding, the strongest of the beasts here should only have the strength of a peak ten-star powerhouse!
At most, they would have the strength of a perfect ten-star powerhouse!
Although a perfect ten-star powerhouse was much stronger than Leng Ning Shuang, it was impossible for Leng Ning Shuang to not notice anything. Moreover, Leng Ning Shuang and the others had lost so many powerhouses. Previously, they had formed a battle formation, but the powerhouses that formed the battle formation had also died!
"It's not a plague, and their souls weren't summoned away."
"It's also not because of the special environment here that they died. After eliminating all kinds of possibilities, the most likely explanation is that their souls were devoured! It's impossible for ordinary beasts to do so, and it's also impossible for Heavenly Sovereign Asura to do so. Could it be … "
Qin Yang's eyes lit up. He suddenly thought of a possibility.
The Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword!
According to the news, the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword was taken away by Heavenly Venerable Asura and brought to the Ancient Shura Realm. It should be in a sealed state. Normally, the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword wouldn't go out to kill, but what if it did?
Heavenly Venerable Asura definitely couldn't take action because of his oath, but the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword shouldn't have such restrictions!
"Prisoner Heaven, you should know about the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword."
"If this incident was caused by the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword, how do you think those people died?"
Qin Yang transmitted his voice to Prisoner Heaven. The Grandmist Fortune Pagoda and the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword were the two heaven-splitting treasures of the human race. Prisoner Heaven definitely knew about the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword.
"Master, Heavenly Venerable Asura is the original Heavenly Dao of the Immortal World. He took away the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword, but he shouldn't have the ability to make the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword recognize him as its master."
"Under such circumstances, the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword must be sealed."
Prisoner Heaven said.
Qin Yang nodded slightly. "I know, but even tigers have times when they doze off. Heavenly Venerable Asura didn't notice at the moment, so it's not impossible that the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword broke free of its seal."
Prisoner Heaven said, "Master, if the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword really broke free of its seal, then the souls of those cultivators might have been swallowed by the sword spirit of the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword. The Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword might not have completely broken free of its seal, and its main body might still be sealed. It's just that the sword spirit is now on the move!"
"Master, the Grandmist Fortune Pagoda is only at the peak of the second level of the God of Creation Stage. However, the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword might have already reached the third level of the God of Creation Stage. The sword spirit should be very powerful as well."
Qin Yang said, "What's the use of the sword spirit of the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword swallowing souls?"
"Prisoner Heaven, can you communicate with the sword spirit of the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword?"
Prisoner Heaven said seriously, "Master, if it was the original sword spirit of the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword, I could communicate with it, and it would even listen to me! However, after such a long time, its power has far surpassed mine. Whether it will listen to me is another question. In fact, it might even be a little corrupted.
"In the past, it wouldn't have swallowed so many cultivators' souls like this.
"Especially when there were humans among the dead!"
Qin Yang frowned. "Prisoner Heaven, do you mean that the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword might not be the original Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword?"
"Master, in essence, it's definitely still a top-tier heaven-splitting treasure of the human race. However, it has been without a master for a long time. Furthermore, its previous master died in battle, and it was imprisoned for a long time. It's normal for its thoughts to change and become a little extreme. It wants to become stronger and become its own master, so that's also normal."
Qin Yang pondered for a moment before nodding slightly.
"Master, I suggest that you don't contact it for now. If you stay here for 10,000 years, Heavenly Venerable Asura will definitely appear. At that time, with Heavenly Venerable Asura's power, he'll definitely be able to suppress the Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword. At that time, he'll pass the sealed Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword to you, and you can think of a way to make it recognize you as its master."
Qin Yang felt a headache coming on. "Prisoner Heaven, what if it continues to kill people?"
"The Heaven Splitting Yellow Sword's artifact spirit should be at the level of the God of Creation Stage, right? Even with my current power at the pinnacle of the 10-star, I'm far from its match. "
