Chapter 1241: Grave King
The emperor's 'state', they couldn't be clearer.
On weekdays, no matter how urgent the matter is, no matter how close the courtiers are to the emperor, they also need to go through layers of inspections before they can go to the inner hall.
The same is true for Yan Shilang and the two brocade guards who followed.
They are well aware of how complicated the process will be to meet the emperor once...... But such a process is necessary.
The emperor sitting in the Taiji Hall is the core of the world itself, and if something goes wrong, the whole world will be difficult to operate.
But.
For Han Dong, who came to the palace for the first time, the emperor actually took the initiative to ask to omit the inspection steps, and directly asked Yan Shilang to lead Han Dong to the inner hall.
This not only made the Jinyi Wei who followed uneasy.
Even Yan Shilang, who was the introducer, was a little flustered, and the front foot that was just about to enter the threshold was retracted.
"Your Majesty, your body?"
"It's all right, come in."
This majestic dragon-like voice came from the corpse qi that was constantly spilling out.
There is an invisible pressure in the words themselves, as if there are countless corpses hanging around everyone, and at the same time conveying the emperor's words.
"Yes."
Yan Shilang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly admonished.
"Han Dong, you must follow me when you walk in the Taiji Hall, and you are not allowed to have any subjective actions.
The emperor's state is very special, to be precise, he is in a state of weakness...... So, if I find any 'abnormality' on your part, you will be suppressed. ”
"Understood."
"Come in."
Although Han Dong was a little puzzled, what was meant by a weak state, Yan Shilang had already stepped into the Taiji Hall, and he didn't have a chance to ask again...... Just follow in, and you'll see it when the time comes.
The moment of stepping into the threshold.
A field field quickly enveloped Han Dong.
Compared to the corpse aura that covered the entire palace area, the Taiji Hall was the truly terrifying area......
"A realm that can affect reality! Is it really a myth? ”
The expected golden inner hall of the palace is long gone, and it is all covered by the realm of 'intervening in reality', and the area where Han Dong has stepped is more like a [corpse hall].
The floor is covered with a layer of stiff skin that is harder than steel, and the leather is stitched together by needles and threads, and there are large amounts of black hair in some areas.
The pillars of the palace were made of a stiff body, with a large number of hands and feet hanging from the outside, and corpse oil dripping from the eerie and slender black nails.
The walls around the palace are covered with zombie heads, with expressions of extreme pain.
Some of the zombies' heads are cut horizontally, and as lampholders, there are several black candles that can burn indefinitely by squeezing corpse oil.
"As expected, it is really a mythical body...... "Tomb" is indeed unable to carry such a strong person.
Originally, there were only two paths left for the tomb king.
First? Accept recruitment from the high-ranking world? Travel to a whole new world and become a part of it.
Second, the ego world is elevated.
The Tomb King apparently rejected the first item.
Meantime? On the basis of the second item? Planning to strip your kingdom out of the world of "Tombs"? Create a new world of your own.'"
Walking in the palace of the realm, Han Dong faintly felt a kind of suction? An attraction that belongs only to the strong.
The ruler of this corpse country belongs to the same category of people as Han Dong in some ways.
Tai Chi Temple? centre
A large cloudy curtain, square in shape, envelops the central area.
A tidal wave of corpse qi continued to overflow from the lower end of the veil, obviously? The ruler of the Corpse Country? The root of the loss of control and the manipulators who cut the world apart are inside.
Even if he can't see the emperor's appearance clearly, he is already a [Face Saint] at present.
Ten meters away from the curtain, Yan Shilang knelt down on his knees and took off the wooden mask he wore on his face, revealing his elegant blue hair and a fresh and handsome face.
"Your Majesty, this young man's name is Han Dong? It's a wizard I met when I was dealing with the 'Corpse Gu Incident'.
Without the assistance of the Secret Ministry, he carried out research on the corpse Gu alone? I got a research manuscript that I thought was extremely valuable.
Hereby bring him over to meet the emperor and verify his identity? Coronation of the Secretary. ”
Immediately, the sound of a hundred corpses came from inside the curtain:
"I'll arrange the matter of the secretary.
Yan Shilang, are you concentrating on the study of corpse Gu? Save me a lot of trouble? You've worked hard all these years. ”
"Corpse Gu is the fortune of the country? The purpose of my existence is to run the national movement for His Majesty.
Compared to the sacrifices made by His Majesty for our country, this little thing of mine is nothing. If the research manuscript given by Han Dong can be implemented normally, the national fortune will be further stabilized. ”
"Okay, you can step down, I want to talk to this young man alone."
Yan Bowen was still immersed in the emperor's praise a second ago, and he was immediately stunned.
"Your Majesty, Han Dong and I have only met for the first time, and I brought him here because of my appreciation for his talent, but I don't know much about his temperament.
For security reasons, I ask to stay here. ”
Although Yan Bowen was completely worried about the emperor.
But as soon as he said this, his whole body was immediately restrained by an irresistible corpse qi, forcing it outward.
The next second.
Yan Shilang was sent out of the gate of the Taiji Palace, and almost fell down the steps, but he still remained kneeling and trembling as a whole, looking confused.
The Jinyi guard who was waiting at the door also hurriedly asked, "Yan Shilang, why did you come out?" What about the young man? ”
"I don't know...... The Holy One is quite abnormal today, and if he wants to summon that young man alone, even I will drive him out.
We can only wait at the door, and if there is any abnormality, we will immediately go to the Taiji Hall to help. ”
"Who is this young man you brought back?"
"I don't know......" Yan Shilang looked embarrassed.
……
Inside the Tai Chi Temple.
With Yan Shilang being forcibly removed, only Han Dong was left in front of the curtain.
"Come in."
"Okay."
When Han Dong reached out to touch the curtain in front of him, he felt a sense of carrying the weight of the corpse mountain, and even if he summoned Tuogu, it would be difficult to hold up the curtain.
Since brute force is difficult to break, he switched to skillful force.
Run the "Floating Corpse Inner Scripture", follow the direction of the corpse qi on the surface of the curtain, and flow the body into it.
In the next second, Han Dong had easily come to the inside of the curtain and reached the true sense of the [Face Saint].
The scene in front of him made Han Dong stunned.
Although many assumptions had been made in advance, such a picture was something Han Dong had never expected...... At the same time, I also understood what Yan Shilang meant by 'weakness'.
A black wooden dragon chair converted from some kind of thousand-year-old coffin.
The monarch of the corpse country is 'fixed' on it - [Tomb Monarch]
The black, scorched body was covered with finger-length silver needles.
The end of each silver needle is connected to a corpse oil catheter, and the high-purity cadaveric essence flows into the body along the silver needle.
(Refined corpse oil from the oil mill area, transported to the Imperial City, and then purified by an underground corpse refining unit)
The body of the Tomb King is the [Runaway Generator].
The continuous infusion of a large amount of corpse element, combined with the 'unique corpse collection - "Corpse Book of Extermination" cultivated by the Tomb King, generated a kind of "Death Qi" that can cut off the connection with the Black Tower and cause the corpses of the whole world to change.
And that's exactly what happened.
The Tomb King was in a state of weakness and could not leave the palace even half a step.
And that's exactly what happened.
The conditions for the face saint are extremely harsh, and even the henchmen of the tomb monarch have to be examined before they can set foot in the Taiji Palace.
And that's exactly what happened.
For the overall management of the Corpse Country, it is necessary to use [Corpse Gu] similar to enslavement, to ensure that during the world stripping period, there will be no transformative actions led by the zombie in the Corpse Country.
Today's tomb monarch is focused on the matter of world ascension, and he must ensure that the whole process is foolproof.
