looked at the four ancestors of the Xu family and coldly said: "Are you all here today to ruin my Qianyuan Auction House"Seeing the arrival of the two women, everyone understood that the Qiankun Auct...Upon hearing the sudden voice, Jiang Yun immediately recognized it as belonging to Zhu Shaoshao. Therefore, without hesitation, he swiftly retracted the Zhen Gu Gun and took a step to the side.
"
Bang!
"
Before Ginger Cloud's form could stabilize, a thunderous roar echoed in his ears.
...was even more forceful, slamming into him with tremendous power and sending him flying backwards.
The surrounding mist, too, was affected by this force, being blown apart in all directions and revealing vast areas of clear sky.
Ginger Yun, already on the ground, had no time to check her injuries. She hurriedly widened her eyes and looked in the direction of Gao Song and Huangfu Jing.
There, an extra figure had appeared, it was Zhu Shaoshao.
And figures of the young also stagger backward.
However, in his one hand, he was still clutching Gao Song's body! In front of him, the mist that had originally dissipated once again swirled, making it impossible for Jiang Yun to see Emperor Huofeng's condition.
Jiang Yun leaped from the ground, arriving beside Zhu Shaoshao in a single step. The latter had already stopped retreating, looking at Jiang Yun covered by the 極冥沙, a glimmer flashed in his eyes before he spoke in a deep voice: "You are quite clever, but your courage is too great!"
Although Ginger Cloud's evaluation of Shao Shao was simply that he was a greedy person, seeing him appear at this moment still brought a slight sense of relief to his heart.
Especially his powerful strength displayed when he fought against Huangfu Jing just now, and his identity as the city lord, also made Jiang Yun expect that some of his doubts could be answered.
Jiang Yun asked, "Is Gao Song alright"
As he spoke, Jiang Yun also reached out and pressed against Gao Song's brow. After confirming that he was still alive, he continued to ask, "What on earth... thing is it"
To be honest, Jiang Yun didn't know how to address Huangfu Jing at this moment.
Zhuo Shao also glanced at Gao Song and said, "He is naturally Huangfu Jing. Didn't you recognize him"
Jiang Yun shook his head and said, "Fellow City Lords, at this point in time, do you think it's still necessary to keep secrets from me"
"Huangpu Jing wanted to kill me, seize the whip, and silence me at the same time. To this end, he didn't hesitate to use the power of the formation he protected to unleash a massacre."
"Finally, as I was about to deliver the killing blow, he suddenly declared his intention to drag us down with him, causing a portal of illusion to erupt."
Then, this is what it became.
"And I still have confidence in my own abilities. I believe even if Huangpu Jing didn't die, he would definitely be seriously injured."
Therefore, that person just now was absolutely not Huangfu Jing, but rather some powerful being who emerged from the Emperor's Tomb beneath.
Listening to Jiang Yun's narration, Shao Shao's eyes suddenly flashed with intense killing intent.
He broke in here because he didn't know what was happening.
Now that Gingercloud had explained everything, he finally understood the confusion in his heart. He also knew that it was precisely because of Huangfu Jing's greed that he disregarded all consequences and triggered a catastrophic event.
Of course, what Emperor Huijing triggered was the Xiumen among the Eight Gates.
And Jiang Yun's speculation was entirely correct.
Although the gate wasn't completely destroyed, it did create a gap in the formation and attracted the attention of some powerful beings. They easily entered here through the opening.
"No wonder there was no movement inside, it was all thanks to Huangfu Jing's defense!"
Before this, Zhu Shao had thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected that as the defender, Huangfu Jing would be so shameless to this extent, truly disregarding the lives and deaths of all living beings! Thinking of this, the killing intent in Zhu Shao's eyes grew stronger, and he said hatefully: "Damn Huangfu Jing, I hope you really are dead."
"Otherwise, let me catch you, and I'll show you what it means to be worse than dead!"
After a couple of curses, Zhu Shao looked at Jiang Yun again and said, "You said you almost killed Huangfu Jing. How did you do it"
Many people don't quite believe that Jiang Yun severely wounded Huangfu Jing because they understand both the formation and Huangfu Jing's strength too well.
Ginger Cloud spoke frankly: "That whip!"
About the secrets within the whip, Ginger Cloud would tell no one. But the fact that the whip contained the power of an emperor was plain for all to see, so his words did not raise any suspicion among the young lords.
Jian Yun did not give Zhu Shaoshao a chance to continue asking questions, and immediately said: "Lord Zhu, can you tell me now what that Huangfu Jing is"
Zhu Shao's gaze swept across the surroundings ceaselessly. After a moment of silence, he said, "Actually, we don't know what it is either."
Jiang Yun raised an eyebrow, clearly not believing what Zhu Shao had said.
As one of the strongest four in the Four Desolations Realm, how could Zhu Shao not know what came out from the Emperor's Mausoleum! Zhu Shao waved his hand, stopping Jiang Yun's questioning and said: "I didn't lie to you, and I haven't entered the Imperial Tomb either."
Our understanding of the Imperial Tombs primarily comes from historical records left behind by previous generations.
A trace of surprise flashed across Jiang Yun's eyes.
A meager amount of strength, in Jiang Yun's view, should be that of a Great Celestial Venerable, or even a quasi-emperor level.
Could it be that he has never entered the imperial tomb out of fear of death
Looking at Ginger Cloud's gaze, Zhu Shao naturally knew what Ginger Cloud was thinking. He immediately put on a stern face and said: "Don't look at me like that. Inside the Imperial Tomb, countless emperors are buried. Even emperors who enter never return. Why would I go to die!"
"Alright, stop beating around the bush. Do you still want to know what it is!"
Jiang Yun chuckled wryly and said, "I don't think I said anything, did I"
Zhu Shao was stunned for a moment, but then he pointed at the spot where Huangfu Jing had appeared earlier and said, "Things like that, we call them Di You!"
"It means something similar to a soul, but different from a soul, born after the emperor's death, like a ghost."
"Di You, not only can he possess and control the corpses of other creatures, but he also possesses terrifying power comparable to that of an emperor."
Jiang Yun was truly taken aback! The thing born after the Emperor's death, could actually possess the Emperor's strength.
Then, once they possessed other beings, wouldn't that be equivalent to the emperor being reborn! Now, Jiang Yun finally had some intuitive impression of the horror of the Imperial Tomb.
Zhu Shao glanced at Jiang Yun again and said, "Is that surprising"
Let's not talk about how many Emperor Ghosts there are. Within the Imperial Tombs, there are not only Emperor Ghosts, but also Emperor Corpses, which are even more terrifying!
"Imperial corpse, that is the body of an emperor who has died and does not dissipate."
But for some reason, certain Emperor Corpses could move on their own and even possessed divine intelligence, much like they had become demons!
> "Even ignoring the Emperor's immense power, his body is incredibly strong and resilient, like unbreakable diamond. No matter how advanced our weapons are, it's very difficult to inflict any harm upon him."
Although Jiang Yun didn't expect there to be other things in the Emperor's Tomb, he wasn't too surprised by the birth of the Emperor Corpse.
As many have said, the Emperor's body was undoubtedly incredibly strong, even in death it was filled with spirit and power, much like a transformation into a demon. This gave rise to the new life form known as an Emperor's Corpse.
Even within the Netherworld, there are demons formed from corpses.
Zhu Shao continued, "Alright, about the Imperial Tombs, I'll give you a detailed explanation another time."
Now, the situation is that Huangfu Jing opened a formation gate, allowing this Di You to enter. Coincidentally, Huangfu Jing was beside it, so Di You seized his body effortlessly.
Now, we either kill it or send it back to the imperial tomb immediately.
Jiang Yun nodded and said, "Before the city lords resolve it, could you please send us out first"
Since knowing the strength of Di You and many young masters also came, Jiang Yun naturally didn't want to continue staying here.
However, Zhu Shao shook his head and said: "You think beautifully, but it can't be done!"
Remember, Huangfu Jing is a defender. No matter his current state, his life remains tethered to this formation!
Jiang Yun was taken aback, just about to speak when he suddenly heard a deep voice boom, "Young masters, why haven't you made a move yet!"
"What if another emperor breaks out if we keep this up!"fter the crack appeared. Instead, they huddled around the entrance, peering inside.Clear and visible, the cracks were like the arrival of the end of days. The sky collapsed, the earth split open, and...
