Chapter Twenty-Three: The Four Jedi Swallowing Tombs
"Everyone find their place and sit down first!" Xing Zhiyan had other meanings.
"You are all worried about me and want to protect me, I am very grateful, but now although I am a demon emperor, I don't have enough strength at all, I need to temper myself, what I want to do is that one day, I, Chen Jueling, can protect everyone, instead of being cared for by everyone all the time. β
"After all, I, sitting here, my opinion, everyone still has to respect. β
Everyone was silent, for them, this choice was a little difficult, Jue Ling made their backbone, but as Jue Ling said, he needs to grow, so taken care of by everyone, it is indeed less of the overlord who looks down on the world, and some are just the mediocre monarchs who hide in the end.
"Why don't you go with Master!" Emperor Zhenwu suggested.
"The Emperor will have some things for you to do these days. Xingzhi said.
"Then, let me go!" Wu Muxi said.
"No, I'll go!" Akame shouted.
"Akame's God of War, Xingzhi has to go out once a few days, and he has to bother with the Akame's God of War. Xingzhi said again.
"Okay, then let Wu Muxi's God of War accompany me. Jue Ling said.
"That's very good!" Xingzhi decided directly.
Jue Ling was also curious about what kind of medicine this Xingzhi was selling, so he had to let Wu Muxi accompany him.
"Alone, I always feel uneasy!" Ao Lie was still worried.
"Don't worry, if I can't protect the safety of the Demon Emperor, I, Wu Muxi, will die to apologize!"
"I believe in the strength of the god of war!"
Emperor Zhenwu nodded seriously, and when the others saw that Zhenwu said this, they were silent.
"So it's decided, Xingzhi, when are we leaving?" asked Jueling.
"Tomorrow!"
"Tomorrow?so soon?"
"Yes. β
Jue Ling smiled very strangely, walked up to Xingzhi, and patted him on the shoulder, "You, you just don't want me to be idle!"
But Jue Ling was thinking in his heart, what exactly Xingzhi wanted to do, as if he was arranging a game of chess, Xingzhi knew that Jue Ling would see the clues, and Jue Ling was also very cooperative with Xingzhi.
After everyone dispersed, Jue Ling and Wu Muxi left together, and Jue Ling was still thinking about it on the way, who knew that Wu Muxi's words made Jue Ling startled!
"The military advisor has already discussed it with me, you don't have to think about it, come with me first, and I will tell you the reason!"
"What?" Jue Ling really guessed, Xingzhi really had something.
The two walked for a long time, and after making sure that there would be no one around, Wu Muxi signaled to stop.
"What the hell is going on?" Jue Ling couldn't help it.
"The advisor will test the spies among us. Wu Muxi replied.
"Who is Xingzhi referring to?" Jue Ling's face was serious.
"I am very grateful to the military advisor for trusting me, but I didn't tell me who the military advisor was, but the military advisor told us that we would know when we returned to Huaguo Mountain in three days. β
"Aren't we going to the Heaven Swallowing Tomb in three days?"
"Of course we have to go to the Heaven-Swallowing Tomb, but let's go now!
After speaking, Wu Muxi ignored Jueling's questions, so he urged Jueling to leave Huaguo Mountain together, or to take the secret road, the two walked for a long time, and Wu Muxi found a place to settle.
"Is there really an innate treasure in the Heaven Swallowing Tomb?"
"Hehe, this news is not from the outside world, but from our Demon Sect itself, and Yuan Hong is just cooperating with the military advisor. β
"So there's no treasure at all, so why should we go?"
"This, I don't know, the military advisor specially asked you and me to go, I think it is his idea, as for whether we listen to the military advisor now, or the demon emperor, you are the master. β
"Listen! I can trust Xingzhi, and I can trust you, I don't have this trust, how else can I, Chen Jueling, be the Demon Emperor?"
Jue Ling didn't think about it, and blurted out, Wu Muxi laughed rarely.
"However, what is this Heaven Swallowing Tomb, do you understand?"
"Swallowing the Sky Tomb, to put it bluntly, is a mass grave, is a terrifying battlefield that existed during the flood period, countless strong people died there, those strong people died after the resentment is too deep, turned into a yin spirit, all the life that has come here, will be killed by these resentful spirits, over time, there monstrous grievances turned into substance, straight to the sky, as if to swallow the sky, and the resentful spirits were destroyed everywhere, endangering the peace of the Three Realms, in desperation, many top powerhouses joined forces to create a tomb there, and sealed it with an enchantment, any resentful spirits had to escape, so it had the name of the Swallowing Heaven Tombγ β
"I see. Jue Ling was thoughtful.
"Moreover, before the Heaven-Swallowing Tomb was sealed, it was a place where the corpses were dumped in the name of a name, and there were many people who died in vain, either killed and thrown there, not allowed to be reborn, or more ruthlessly, they were thrown into it alive. β
After Wu Muxi finished speaking, Jue Ling couldn't help frowning, how cruel and hateful it was, so that the other party would be tortured like that.
"But how do I enter this Heaven Swallowing Tomb, isn't it sealed by an enchantment?"
"It's just the resentful spirits that are sealed, so naturally we can still enter!"
"Why don't you completely destroy the Heaven Swallowing Tomb?
"For various reasons, perhaps in response to that sentence, existence has its value. β
"Then let's go in, will it be a little dangerous!" Jue Ling was still a little worried.
"Demon Emperor, the military advisor secretly gave me something to protect you. β
"Hehe, then I know, in this case, let's hurry up, let's go!"
Wu Muxi led the way, and it seemed that he was no stranger, and the time spent by the two was not as long as expected.
As soon as the two of them came to the area where the Heaven Swallowing Tomb was located, just the periphery, the boundless resentment made Jue Ling very uncomfortable, and the ghost Ze was nothing compared to the periphery of the Heaven Swallowing Tomb.
The sky here is very dark, there is not the slightest aura, even the air is extremely thin, there is no living vegetation around, there is the breath of death everywhere, and the resentment that erupts from the ground from time to time is like a monster with teeth and claws, extremely eerie and terrifying!
It is said to be a tomb, but it cannot be seen from the appearance, there are four mountains here, which are northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest.
The purpose of this is twofold, under which are endless resentful spirits, which are evil, and are hereby obliquely positioned, and the terrain here is special, and the mountains are so ranked that they correspond to the four elephants and stars.
The four elephants of the stars are, the Vermilion Bird, the Xuanwu, the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, and the spirit of the gods, using the mountain as a medium, and the power to destroy evil is just to restrain the resentful spirits.
Jue Ling Shen could see that there were several enchantments, surrounding the four mountains in turn, and the power that flowed on these enchantments, Jue Ling asked himself if he had the ability to break any of them now!
With such a special focus on treatment, you can imagine what a terrifying existence buried under this is!
"Since it is a mountain array, it must be the most powerful in the five directions, if I am not mistaken, the entrance of this Heaven Devouring Tomb should be in the middle of the four mountains. β
After looking at it for a while, Jue Ling deduced, and Wu Muxi immediately nodded in agreement with Jue Ling's statement.
"I didn't expect the Demon Emperor to know so much about the formations?" Wu Muxi said.
Jue Ling pointed to his head, "I'm not the only one here. β
Jue Ling is right, whether it is the original Ao Lie, or the later Sun Dasheng, Su Beiyi, they all left a unique divine sense in Jue Ling's mind.
Ao Lie once said to Jue Ling that in the future, there will be a strong man in the formation to teach the cultivation of the Jue Ling formation, and he is talking about Sun Dasheng, and Jue Ling has now comprehended a lot of formations through the opportunity given by Sun Dasheng, these are priceless treasures!
Jue Ling tried to pass through the barriers, and found that these barriers were indeed not blocked, and the two quickly came to the middle position, and a huge sarcophagus appeared in front of them!
The sarcophagus was very large, equivalent to a small mountain, and Jue Ling looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see where the entrance was.
"Up there!" Wu Muxi said.
The two flew to the top of the sarcophagus, and a strange pattern was carved on the lid of the sarcophagus, and Jue Ling found that it was not one at the edge of the coffin lid, and it seemed that it did enter from under the lid of the coffin, so now it was just a matter of opening it.
Jue Ling urged the mana and pushed the coffin lid, but the coffin lid did not move at all, no matter how Jue Ling increased his mana.
It was not in this way that the lid was opened, but in relation to the bizarre pattern.
Wu Muxi had been standing aside, he didn't interrupt Jue Ling, in fact, he knew how to open it.
Jue Ling rubbed the patterns, felt the lines, and seemed to have a longing coming out.
The sarcophagus is used as an eye for the array, and it seems most suitable to suppress the evil spirits, and the coffin is the coffin that carries the soul to the underworld.
The more Jue Ling looked at this pattern, the more he felt as if he was attracted and his soul was about to go out of his body, he suddenly remembered something, looked at Wu Muxi, and asked in a little surprise.
"Do you have to give up your flesh before you can enter?"
Wu Muxi nodded tiredly, "Yes, the method of entering the Swallowing Heaven Burial is indeed this." β
Isn't it dangerous for Jue Ling to be a little embarrassed to abandon his physical body here like this?
"There's another way, though. Wu Muxi said.
"How?" asked Jueling.
"This pattern is the totem of an ancient tribe in our demon clan, which is essentially the embodiment of greed, it is used to absorb spiritual power, and later used to punish sinful people, sacrifice their souls, and devour souls. β
"Then if my soul enters, won't I be devoured?
"The totem must be equipped with a magic weapon to be able to devour, and the carving on the sarcophagus is only a partial effect of the totem. β
Suddenly, Jue Ling realized that something was wrong, "This is a trap, if I enter through the Divine Spirit, won't I be able to come out again?"
"That's right. Wu Muxi replied truthfully.
"Then this is looking for death, it seems that the person who designed this sarcophagus in the first place really had an idea. β
"But it's one way, but the other way I'm going to say is to satisfy the totem's greed. β
"Satisfy greed?"
Jue Ling thought that since the totem is the embodiment of greed, devouring spiritual power, then feed it, and the sarcophagus will definitely be opened, and the totem engraved on the sarcophagus....
Jue Ling sat down quietly and began to refine his own painstaking efforts, Wu Muxi nodded appreciatively, Jue Ling's comprehension was very high.
Three drops of essence blood appeared in Jue Ling's hand, and Jue Ling slowly dropped into one drop, wanting to see what would happen.
Seeing that the blood dripped on the lines and spread rapidly, Jue Ling couldn't imagine that such a drop of blood could actually dye the entire totem red.
Then the essence blood seemed to be absorbed, and it was submerged in the totem, "Boom!!"
The sarcophagus beneath Jueling's feet began to vibrate, and then the lid seemed to move.
"It's done!"
Jue Ling flew up, exerted all his strength to push the lid of the coffin, and finally pushed open a gap.
"Roar!!"
A powerful resentment gushed out, and with a roar, Jue Ling felt that a murderous and hungry wraith awaited them underneath.
"Wu God of War, let's go down!"
