Chapter 71: The Demon in the Ruined Temple
"It helped a lot."
In the carriage, Su Chen put away his bamboo umbrella and just walked in when it started to rain heavily outside.
Boom——
Thunder exploded.
The wind and rain came again, as violent as waves.
"Boy."
"Do you know whose carriage this is?"
"You are just a little eunuch, wearing a humble black robe, a lowly fellow, yet you dare to sit in there."
The female musicians of the King of Qi were quite domineering.
If Long Xuanjun had not agreed, she would have whipped this ignorant eunuch out of the car.
"It doesn't matter."
"He reminds me of an old friend."
"It's okay to give it a try along the way."
Long Xuanjun waved his hand and just looked at the black robe on Su Chen, becoming more and more dazed.
That man was extremely handsome and was also wearing a black robe.
The turmoil in the world and the change of imperial power are nothing but toys in his hands.
pity.
The person in front of me is not him.
He is just a normal little black eunuch.
Fortunately, it wasn't him.
"grateful."
Su Chen thanked Long Xuanjun.
Not seen for three years.
Long Xuanjun, the only one who survived the battle to destroy Liang, has become much calmer. The longevity fire in his body is strong, an unprecedented longevity fire of a master.
The Flame Emperor unified the world, but unexpectedly, he was the first master in the world.
I don’t know either.
The Flame Emperor knows.
How would he feel about having helped make Long Xuanjun, who was competing with him for the throne, successful?
"Boy, why are you going to the Imperial Mausoleum?"
Long Xuanjun was resting with his eyes closed, while the female musician of King Qi was interrogating Su Chen with dangerous eyes. She vaguely felt that the figure of the young eunuch in front of her was familiar.
But she couldn't say exactly where she had seen him.
"There is a little boy at home who is not very easy to take care of. I am afraid he has met with misfortune in the imperial mausoleum. Let's go and see if we can collect his body for him..."
Su Chen responded indifferently, and then he closed his eyes and rested.
"Your boy?"
"Haha, it seems that he is also a little eunuch in the palace. I am afraid he was taken to dig the imperial tomb."
The Queen of Qi was a little annoyed and couldn't figure out who the little eunuch was annoyed about.
After the imperial tomb collapsed.
Many of the most important people in the Great Zhou were buried there. The Crown Prince, who was in a hurry, sent more than 10,000 people to dig the imperial tomb.
There were eunuchs from the palace, imperial guards, monks from martial arts sects, all kinds of people.
If all the people in the imperial mausoleum died.
The Great Zhou is about to turn the world upside down.
"That's it."
"Like me, an ordinary eunuch."
"I once told him that he and I are both ordinary eunuchs. We should not have too many thoughts and just live a quiet and stable life."
"Unfortunately, he didn't listen..."
Su Chen was a little emotional.
Confirmed.
Xiao Xuanzi was indeed in the imperial mausoleum, but he did not rush there after the two Qi-cultivating immortals were born in the imperial mausoleum. Instead, he entered with the saint leader of the Black Abyss.
He was the one who helped dig the imperial tomb.
I'm afraid he was the one who released the Qigong Immortal as well.
He was one of the culprits behind the strange incident in the imperial mausoleum that shocked the whole world.
"Ah."
"really."
"It must be my illusion. Why do I feel that someone like you looks familiar..."
The female musicians of the King of Qi lost interest and ignored small characters like the black eunuch.
She gritted her teeth.
She found the abandoned house with the late emperor's will, but unfortunately it was already deserted. The mysterious first-class black-robed figure who took the late emperor's will disappeared.
I think he knew the seriousness of the matter and ran away.
"Let me find you."
"I will let Long Xuanjun teach you a lesson."
The King of Qi and his daughter Le were filled with resentment.
Completely unaware.
The mysterious first-grade black robe she had been searching for was sitting quietly before her.
Mr. Long Xuan might not dare to do anything.
Outside the carriage.
The rain is getting heavier.
The strong wind and the backwash of rain hit the carriage heavily like huge waves. Even though the carriage was sturdy and the horses were of different blood, it was still difficult for the carriage to move forward in the wind and rain.
The wind and rain are a bit too strong.
Even if it was of the second rank, there was a feeling that it would be torn apart in the wind and rain.
The closer you get to the imperial mausoleum, the bigger the waves caused by the wind and rain become. If you continue to go deeper, I'm afraid even a first-grade cultivator won't be able to move forward an inch.
"Strange, this wind and rain is a bit weird."
The Queen of Qi was muttering.
Shall not.
The carriage had to find a place to stop nearby, and coincidentally, there was a dilapidated temple of the mountain god ahead.
There happened to be a figure staying in the dilapidated temple.
They got off the bus.
Su Chen had met Prince Jie in this dilapidated temple of the mountain god before, but this time, this dilapidated temple was slightly different.
Su Chen stepped into the ruined temple one step ahead of Long Xuanjun.
“Was there this mountain god statue in the beginning?”
Su Chen was a little confused. He looked at the stone statue covered with spider webs, but he didn't think about it too much.
"There's something strange about this dilapidated temple."
"Be careful."
Lord Longxuan gave instructions to the Queen of Qi.
In the ruined temple.
There was a team of seven people, who looked like bodyguards, and were quite powerful. The leader was a first-rank one, and the rest were second or third ranks. They bowed to Su Chen and the others, without saying much, but guarding a coffin behind them with vigilance.
Su Chen and Long Xuanjun each found a corner, made a fire and sat down.
The ruined temple is silent.
The wind and rain are getting stronger.
The wind howls.
The night is getting darker.
Most of the people present were practitioners, but at this moment, they felt a little dizzy and wanted to fall asleep.
The fire went out.
The ruined temple fell into darkness.
Vaguely.
Gnawing sounds could be heard in the darkness, coming from the direction where the coffin was.
The next day, day broke.
The storm still did not stop.
"It's really troublesome."
The leader of the escort agency, looking at the three people beside him and the coffin, felt that the situation was a bit tricky.
"trouble."
"It's been delayed for a day."
"If I had known earlier, I would have brought seven people with me on this escort mission."
"When will this storm stop?"
far away.
Su Chen looked a little puzzled.
Last night, there were seven people, but today, there are only four left. And judging from their appearance, this escort leader had completely forgotten that the three people he brought with him were missing.
At the side, Lord Long Xuan, with a solemn expression, also sensed something was wrong. He turned his head to look at the female musician of King Qi and asked.
"How many of them were there last night?"
The female musicians of the King of Qi are a little strange.
"Four people."
"Aren't they all here?"
moment.
Long Xuanjun said nothing and closed his eyes, but his expression was quite solemn.
The wind and rain are still very strong.
The next night.
The feeling of drowsiness came over him again, the ruined temple fell into darkness, and the chewing sounds began again, but this time it was Long Xuanjun who took action.
however.
Useless.
The dignified and supreme first-class Lord Long Xuan, who had even stepped into the Grandmaster stage, had not made any achievements at all.
Its daybreak.
The dilapidated temple is empty.
The first-rank, second-rank and third-rank guards who were escorting the convoy were all nowhere to be seen. Where they were standing, there was only an empty coffin.
The wind and rain are still so strong.
In the ruined temple.
There were only three figures left, Su Chen, the Queen of Qi's female musician, and Long Xuanjun whose steps were a little unsteady.
"How many people are there in the ruined temple?"
Long Xuanjun asked.
"what?"
"Aren't there just three of us here to take shelter from the rain?"
"Long Xuanjun, what does this mean? Oh, that coffin, I remember it was in this dilapidated temple when I first stepped in."
moment.
Lord Longxuan, no longer had any chance, so he grabbed the King of Qi's female musicians and left.
Before leaving.
He looked over to the corner and saw Su Chen, who looked calm and composed.
"You, are you going to leave?"
"Don't leave now."
“Maybe I won’t be able to leave.”
A little eunuch, not worth mentioning. Long Xuanjun didn't know why he looked at him differently. Perhaps it was because of the black eunuch robe. "No."
"It's too windy and rainy outside."
"I am just an ordinary eunuch. I'd better avoid the rain before leaving."
"You go first..."
See this.
Mr. Longxuan, seemed to be hesitant to speak.
really.
Is he just an ordinary eunuch, so he is completely unaware of the danger in this dilapidated temple?
"Taking one person away is already the limit."
"I must retrieve the late emperor's will, change this chaotic world, and fulfill my promise to him."
"Walk."
Lord Longxuan left, and he took only one person with him, the Queen of Qi's daughter.
Even the carriage is no longer needed.
Lord Long Xuan, braving wind and rain, traveled far away with the Princess of Qi.
He didn't expect it either.
When going to the imperial mausoleum, I actually encountered the legendary "evil spirit".
There are two kinds of demons.
One is the "evil beast", which is like a beast in cultivation, corresponding to the cultivation in the human world, from the fifth grade to the first grade, and then there is the big demon, the upper big demon, which corresponds to the innate and acquired master.
another……
It is "evil spirit", starting from the first level, corresponding to... Qi training immortal...
Just like, although both are human beings, there is a huge difference between cultivators and qi-cultivating immortals; although both are monsters, "evil beasts" and "evil spirits" are almost two species.
The ruined temple is ten miles away from the mountains and rivers.
After hearing what Long Xuanjun said, the Queen of Qi's female musician turned pale.
It turned out to be an "evil spirit" that only circulated in stories?
When the world is in chaos, demons will appear, but they are all "evil beasts" causing trouble, and practitioners can destroy them. This is the first time that "evil spirits" have appeared.
"This world is really going to be different."
Long Xuanjun whispered.
The Queen of Qi looked towards the direction of the ruined temple of the mountain god with some pity.
Although this evil spirit is only of the first grade, it is completely different from the cultivation methods of the human world. Even the master Long Xuanjun cannot do anything about it.
I had to flee on a rainy night.
"This little eunuch is also unlucky."
"I actually failed to understand the deep meaning of Long Xuanjun's words and cut off my own chance of survival."
"He's dead!"
The ruined temple of the mountain god.
The night is getting darker.
In the temple.
into darkness.
Only Su Chen was left. He was in high spirits and stood in the corner, expectantly waiting for the coffin to attack him.
Time passed by little by little.
Nothing happened.
This coffin looks like it's dead.
"Weird."
"Why are you not responding?"
Su Chen walked forward, rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the coffin lid with both hands, and was about to open the coffin so that he could take a good look at what was inside.
however.
The coffin shook, as if someone was holding the lid tightly inside. Even though Su Chen had a great strength, he could not move it at all.
It's playing dead.
Also, he was afraid of Su Chen.
"It's weird."
"Last night, I saw Long Xuanjun was defeated by you. Why are you so afraid of me?"
"Let me be healthy."
The evil spirit is still pretending to be dead.
a long time.
Su Chen couldn't do anything with the coffin.
Obviously.
This coffin is also an evil treasure.
The soil on top was still fresh, and it was obviously dug out not long ago. The only thing that could be dug out nearby was...
"The Imperial Tomb."
Seeing that the evil spirit did not show up, Su Chen felt a little regretful. He ran out of the ruined temple in the wind and rain. Even this level felt that the wind and rain were so strong that it was difficult to move. Wherever Su Chen passed, they seemed to be avoiding him, not daring to get their clothes wet.
a long time.
The coffin in the ruined temple trembled slightly.
crunch--
The coffin lid opened.
A pale hand supported the coffin and sat up.
"This guy finally left."
"Among the more than ten people present, even the Grandmasters will be affected by my magic and become drowsy. Those below the Grandmaster level will have their memories completely changed. I am playing with them, but it has no effect on him. He has been watching me for two nights without blinking an eye..."
"He has a normal smell."
"But I have an inexplicable feeling that if I attack him, my soul will be torn to pieces..."
"A Qi-training immortal?"
"It should be, otherwise, it shouldn't be so scary."
The female ghost with dark pupils, an illusory figure, and a face full of black hair carried the coffin and prepared to leave, looking for the next place to make trouble.
At this time.
Outside the ruined temple.
A young man in black clothes came with an umbrella. He had a handsome face and was as beautiful as a demon. He looked like a stunning guest on earth or an immortal from heaven.
"The rain is too heavy."
"There is a dilapidated temple here, which is just right for taking shelter from the rain..."
The young man in black clothes, with just the right amount of surprise on his face, walked hurriedly over, as if he had just discovered this place.
"Hahaha."
"Yes, he came here through wind and rain, at least he is a first-class one."
"You can still get some blood food."
"That's wonderful!"
The evil female ghost, with her dark pupils shining, gave a hideous smile, put down the coffin, and crawled back into it.
In the ruined temple.
The young man in black seemed to be quite afraid of coffins and stayed away from them.
The night is getting darker.
crunch--
The coffin lid opened.
The coffins were densely packed with the skeletons of hundreds and thousands of practitioners.
"My delicious blood food, where are you?"
The evil female ghost looked greedily at the ruined temple.
Finally found the young man in black clothes who was sleeping soundly.
It turned out that he was hiding on the beam.
The female ghost climbed up the wooden pillar, went straight to the beam of the house, and opened her bloody mouth towards the young man in black clothes.
"I found you!"
She smiled grimly.
Su Chen woke up and looked at the coffin filled with yin energy in the dilapidated temple. He smiled at the twisted female ghost.
"No!"
"I found you."
At this moment, the expression on the female ghost's face changed drastically.
She recognized it.
This boy was the one that scared her so much that she dared not come out.
"I ate you!"
Escaping back into the coffin was no longer realistic, so she opened her bloody mouth, revealing her vicious nature.
Even the Grandmaster couldn't do anything to her.
She doesn't believe it.
The young man in black clothes can really scare her to death.
"First-class evil spirit."
Su Chen was about to take action.
He dare not be careless.
Just preparing to use the most powerful Star-Burial Sword.
however.
The blood flame in the body seemed to have found something delicious. It surged up like waves and rolled directly towards the evil spirit.
The dilapidated temple was quiet.
The evil spirit that even the grandmaster could not do anything about turned into nutrients that fueled the blood flames to rise, and turned into black ash on the ground.
Su Chen realized it later.
His top-level physique was like the bright sun, and seemed to be particularly restrained against this kind of evil spirits.
"Another treasure was obtained."
"Do not."
"Xie Bao, more appropriate."
Feeling the Yin energy surging in the coffin, and there was still a space of about three meters, Su Chen put the three top-level corpses in to warm them up.
The fairy treasure cannot be put into the ring.
resignedly.
He had no choice but to put the coffin into the carriage and pull it towards the imperial tomb.
Su Chen went away.
In the dilapidated temple, the broken stone statue of the mountain god twisted its body and looked deeply at the departing carriage, revealing a hint of fear and alarm.
There are more than just stone statues of mountain gods.
As soon as the coffin was gone.
There are ghosts everywhere in the dilapidated temple, all of them are evil spirits. It is simply a devil's den.
They are all pretending to be dead.
But the most evil ghost is the female ghost who is escorting the coffin.
and so.
The ghost girl is dead.
"He finally left."
"but."
"He took the coffin away..."
Sorry, my work state has been a bit bad recently, and the last three chapters were too stiff. The content is still the same, the fairy traces appear in the world, but it will be revised and polished.
