Chapter 862: Legion of the Dead
It is undoubtedly more difficult to reach the Quadruple Saint King Realm from the Triple Saint King Realm, and the Heaven Killing Ancestor is not only helping Jiang Yuan to protect the Dharma every day, but also using the treasures sent by Ji Yun to depict the spirit array.
At the level of Heaven Slaying Ancestor, arranging the spirit array is just a casual matter, even if it is carved on the grass and trees, it will have great power. Only the kind of formation that is truly against the sky will use auxiliary things.
Three months later, as the Heaven Slaying Ancestor had expected, Jiang Yuan successfully stepped into the Fourfold Saint King Realm. There was still about half of the Nirvana spiritual liquid left, and the Heaven Killing Ancestor was not stingy, and all of them were given to Jiang Yuan.
These Nirvana Spiritual Liquids were no longer enough to support Jiang Yuan's ascension to another level of cultivation, but they could be used by Jiang Yuan's friends.
"It's strange, it stands to reason that it's already the agreed time, why hasn't Ji Yun shown up yet, this doesn't quite fit his character. Heaven Killing Ancestor said.
"Could it be that something is wrong, we have been closed for three months, maybe something really happened. Jiang Yuan said.
When the two walked out of the door, the housekeeper immediately greeted them, and said arrogantly: "You two are finally out of the customs, and if you delay any longer, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will lose patience." β
"Heh, are you a housekeeper? Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
The butler smiled disdainfully and said: "Of course I am still me, but you are no longer your previous identity, the Sword Emperor has endowed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with a powerful army, a powerful combat force that is enough to crush the Heavenly Sword Guard, and now the two of you have long lost their previous status." β
"What? There is still a force hidden in the Heavenly Sword Saint Dynasty that is comparable to the Heavenly Sword Guard? Wouldn't that be formed by gathering more than ninety percent of the powerhouses in the Imperial City. Jiang Yuan was surprised.
The Heaven Killing Ancestor patted Jiang Yuan on the shoulder and said, "He's just a small character, how can he know so much inside story, it's a waste of time to continue talking to him, let's go, go directly to the prince." β
Looking at the backs of Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Killing Ancestor, the housekeeper sneered and said, "Hmph, you dare to be so arrogant when you get to this point, I want to see what will happen to you if you can't take Ji Rong and Heavenly Sword Guard." β
When I came to the main hall of the East Palace, there was a gloomy and strange aura surrounding me, which made people very uncomfortable and had a feeling of lifelessness.
"This East Palace seems to be a little different from before. Heaven Killing Ancestor frowned and said.
At this moment, a person came from a distance, and when he looked at it, it was Zizhen beside the crown prince Ji Yun.
"Two, you still remember, there has been no news for three months, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to forget about you. Zizhen said angrily.
Heaven Killing Ancestor and Jiang Yuan glanced at each other, clasped their fists and said, "Three months ago, we explained to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that this retreat would take three months, could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince blamed the two of us for the time problem?"
"Two, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is benevolent and righteous, how can you live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Zizhen smiled: "The two of you have also heard that this imperial city is like a battlefield, and the fighter plane is fleeting. You've disappeared for three months all at once, and the situation has already changed in such a long time. β
"Oh, in other words, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now has the upper hand, and there is no need for us two brothers. Haha, that's fine, I'll say goodbye. The Heaven Killer Ancestor hugged his fists and laughed.
Sou!
Suddenly, a fishy wind blew in his face, and two black shadows quickly appeared in front of Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Killing Ancestor, blocking the way of the two.
Seeing what was in front of them, the two couldn't help but be taken aback, only to see two purple-skinned mysterious people blocking in front of them, with faint blood-colored lines outside the skin. These two people are blank, like walking corpses, almost exactly the same as Mu Yunzhan at the beginning.
"Okay, there is nowhere to find it when you step on the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, I didn't expect to encounter this kind of monster in the East Palace, Mu Yunzhan's change is no accident. Jiang Yuan said secretly in his heart.
The Heaven Slayer Ancestor looked solemn, turned around, and said, "What do you mean by this?"
"How dare I have my own meaning, it is completely to convey the meaning of the prince, three months ago, you opened your mouth and asked the prince for so many treasures, and now you have it in your pocket, and you want to pat your ass and leave? Zizhen smiled and said: "At the beginning, you promised to let Ji Rong suffer a catastrophe within three months, and the Heavenly Sword Guard became the prince's bag, and now the time is almost up, how are things going?"
"The prince already has such a powerful hole card, and he still cares about the Heavenly Sword Guard. Jiang Yuan said.
"I can't say that, even if I now have the power to surpass the Heavenly Sword Guard, but after all, it is Ji Rong's dependence, if I don't get rid of him, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no moths in the future. At this time, Ji Yun walked out of the main hall with his hands behind his back, compared to before, he was completely like two people.
At the beginning, he needed the help of Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Killing Ancestor, and his attitude was sincere, and he called him a brother. Now that he has the strength to surpass the Heavenly Sword Guard, Jiang Yuan and the Heavenly Ancestor have little effect on him, and his attitude has changed greatly.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what do you want?" asked the Heaven Slayer Ancestor.
Ji Yun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Huang, don't be so serious, let's be a brother, as long as you complete what you promised me, if you want to leave or stay, I won't force it." β
Heaven Killing Ancestor nodded and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, what I promised will naturally be completed, just tonight, there will be a lunar eclipse, and then the Yin Qi will climb to a peak." The Holy Array in the Land of the Hidden Sword suppressed the sword qi of the Supreme Gang and Yang, and this yin qi will have an impact on it, and the two of us took advantage of the weakness to enter and inject a change into the holy array, which will suppress the effect of the holy array for three days. In the past three days, I don't need to tell how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will do it. β
Hearing this, Ji Yun was quite surprised, and wondered: "You really have such an ability to influence the spirit array laid by my father?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince, to say something rebellious, the Sword Emperor's combat power is unparalleled in the world, but his attainments in the spirit array are indeed not flattering. Heaven Killing Ancestor said.
Ji Yun was stunned for a moment, laughed instead of being angry, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, okay, tonight I will mobilize the entire Underworld Legion to pick up the two of them outside the Heavenly Sword Guard Battalion, just in case." While it's still early, why don't you enter my main hall and let the three of us have a drink?"
"No need, tonight's action is crucial, I'm afraid I'll make a mistake if I drink. Heaven Killing Ancestor said.
Ji Yun sneered, waved his hand, turned around and walked into the main hall.
And the walking corpse behind Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Slayer Ancestor made a move, grabbed the two, and entered the main hall.
Listening to what Ji Yun said, this force is called the Legion of the Dead, and since it is called the Legion, there must be a lot of them.
Entering the main hall, under the leadership of Ji Yun, Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Slaying Ancestor were escorted by two walking corpses, and followed closely behind.
Behind the wall of the study, there is a secret passage, and under the secret passage, there is a huge underground martial arts arena, the area is large enough to join the entire East Palace.
Ji Yun waved his hand, and thousands of black shadows converged here, and the black pressed one.
All of them were walking corpses like Mu Yunzhan, and many of them were very powerful. The Heaven Slaying Ancestor even caught a trace of aura in it that was not much different from his own, and there was actually a monster that had reached the strength of the Nine Saint King Realm with just the strength of his physical body.
What a horror it is.
"See, this is my Legion of the Dead, stay here until nightfall, and don't try to play tricks on me. If you don't accomplish your goal by then, I'll turn you into a member of the Legion of the Dead. Ji Yun said.
Become a member of the Legion of the Dead? Could it be that the walking dead here are all made of living people?
Looking at the shocking scene around him, watching Ji Yun leave, Jiang Yuan wondered in his heart, how did these monsters come about, three months ago, Ji Yun definitely did not come into contact with these monsters, otherwise, he would not have agreed to the request of the Heaven Killing Ancestor and paid such a big price.
"Jiang Yuan, don't be surprised, tonight's plan is still the same. "Heaven Killing Ancestor Chuanyin said.
Jiang Yuan nodded, sat on the spot, ran the exercises, and adapted to the Quadruple Saint King Realm as much as possible.
At the same time, Jiang Yuan also thought about it a lot.
Now Ji Yun no longer regards Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Killing Ancestor as a reliance, but a stepping stone to climb up, he is afraid that Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Killing Ancestor will sneak away, so he is imprisoning them here.
In his opinion, no matter whether Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Killing Ancestor could complete the task, they would inevitably die.
He would lead the entire Legion of the Dead to guard outside the Heavenly Sword Guard Camp, these are the walking dead, empty shells, as long as they are not seen, no one can detect them.
If Jiang Yuan and the Heaven Slayer Ancestor missed and wanted to run away, he would immediately let this group of walking corpses out of the horse and arrest the two of them. If the two succeeded, he would still catch the two of them and present them to the Sword Emperor to win the appreciation of the Sword Emperor.
The emperor's family is deceitful, there is no emotion to speak of, Jiang Yuan and the Heavenly Ancestor are just victims in Ji Yun's eyes.
But for the Heaven Killing Ancestor, the battle between Ji Yun and Ji Rong was like a child playing at home, it was too naΓ―ve. Now that the entire Tian Yuan catastrophe is approaching, the Heavenly Sword Saint Dynasty is almost about to become the public enemy of the other three major realms and the Yanhuang Academy, and they still have their minds to fight.
This was an opportunity for him to take advantage of.
"Think of us as stepping stones, Ji Yun, I really want to see your surprise at the end. Jiang Yuan said secretly in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook up a touch of arc.
On the other hand, Jiang Yuan's relaxation, but the Heaven Killing Ancestor looked solemn, he always had a bad premonition, although in his plan, everything had been arranged, but this premonition made him very uncomfortable.
"In any case, as long as you take away the sword of gods and demons, everything will be calmed. "Heaven Killing Ancestor said secretly in his heart.
......
Gradually, night fell, and tonight was originally the night of the full moon, but because the lunar eclipse was coming, the yin qi was terrible. Even the Holy Array in the Land of Hidden Swords has lost its former brilliance.
Rumble!
The door of the secret room opened, and Ji Yun said with a smile: "Two, it's almost time, it's time to go." β
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the actions of the two of us tonight will definitely not disappoint you. Heaven Killing Ancestor said.
