The ancient demon centipede king became honest and crouched in front of the bloody man, trembling and no longer as ferocious as before.
"Brother Yue, this..."
Xu Yanning and An Ning stepped forward and looked at the crawling ancient demon centipede king in shock. They felt that their brains were not enough.
This ancient demon centipede king himself said that he was a strong man in the realm of the Holy Emperor!
What is the realm of the Holy Emperor?
You know, the heads of the top sects in Hanzhou are only half-step Holy Emperors.
As far as Xu Yanning knew, the owner of the Qisha Tower was the Half-Step Holy Emperor, the strongest person on the surface of the sect.
As for whether the sect still exists beyond the half-step Holy Emperor realm, it is difficult to say clearly. I am afraid that except for a few people, no one knows the true situation.
After all, for a force like Qishalou, even those with strong foundations are still half-step Holy Emperors.
However, this kind of power has been inherited for a long time. Maybe there is an old antique in the Holy Emperor realm who has sealed himself and fallen asleep, and is not known to the world. It is difficult to say clearly.
The most shocking thing was An Ning. Fortunately for Xu Yanning, she knew much more about Jun Wuxie than An Ning.
Before this, An Ning would not even think about the word Holy Emperor, let alone the existence of this level.
The top strong man in Qingzhou is a Half-Step Overlord, but in Hanzhou, which is ten times more vast and has much richer cultivation resources, the leader of the top sect is only a Half-step Holy Emperor.
As for the Holy Emperor, she never thought in her life that she would see a powerful man of this level.
What I didn't expect was that not only did I see him today, but the strong man in the Holy Emperor realm was still crawling in front of me, trembling and silent.
Jun Wuxie stroked Lanlan's head and smiled without saying a word.
Without Lanlan's magical power, it would be impossible to sign a soul contract with the Demon Centipede King in the Holy Emperor realm and turn him into a contracted beast.
Her soul at the Saint Emperor Realm is far beyond what the daughter of the Beast King like Xue Yuan, who only has the soul at the Great Saint Realm, can match. The difference is incalculable.
However, Lanlan's magical power is against the sky, and the coming darkness directly erases the target's six senses, leaving its soul in a state of absolute relaxation, unable to resist, and unable to fight back.
"Lanlan~ You little guy is really a little expert next to Brother Yue."
Xu Yanning couldn't help but rub Lanlan. She didn't know what kind of strange beast Lanlan was, but she heard Jun Shen complain about it before. What kind of super beast is Lanlan?
She had only heard of divine beasts, but not of super divine beasts.
What level is the super beast? Is it a bloodline above the beast and a higher level than the beast?
From the name, it seems right!
Lanlan is a super mythical beast that surpasses the level of mythical beasts. No wonder he has such abilities, and his magical power is beyond the heavens.
"Tell me, what's going on in the abyss outside, and why are you guarding those two coffins under the abyss."
Jun Wuxie casually sat down on the bluestone beside him and asked the ancient demon centipede king.
The ancient demon centipede king remained silent, with deep resentment and hatred for this human being in his heart.
But it immediately saw Xue Yuan's cold eyes and trembled with fear.
"I am your master, and he is my master. You have to find out your identity!"
Xueyuan warned the ancient demon centipede on the spot.
"This king..."
"Um?"
Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes slightly, and the ancient demon centipede king was immediately frightened and changed his words, "It was a slip of the tongue. I was captured by the demon Taoist back then. I had no choice but to agree to sleep under the abyss and guard this place."
"You never thought about running away and sleeping here for a long time so honestly?"
"Of course I'm not willing to give in, but I have no choice. I can't get out of here at all! The only exit is at the bottom of the abyss. There is a restriction set up by the demon Taoist specifically for me. Once I get close, I will be seriously injured even if I don't die! I have tried many times. They all ended up seriously injured..."
The ancient demon centipede king said that it once tried every hundreds of thousands of years, but failed every time.
The reason why we have to wait hundreds of thousands of years is to see if the demon Taoist is completely dead.
If the demon dies, the restriction there will gradually weaken over time, and then it can go out.
Repeated attempts showed that the demon Taoist was still alive in the coffin and not dead. Therefore, more than a million years later, he was still severely injured by the ban, and he never dared to try again.
Just after that, the demon Taoist woke up and used means to completely suppress it under the abyss. Only specific conditions can release the suppression and awaken it.
It slept like this for millions of years. It was not until a few days ago that Jun Wuxie and the others broke in, pulled out the saprophyte flowers, and activated the Taoist talisman on the demon Taoist's hanging coffin, which made it wake up from its deep sleep. .
"What state of the demon Taoist was that you had no power to resist at all?"
Jun Wuxie was shocked. He realized that he had underestimated the strength of the people buried in the two coffins.
From the words of the ancient demon centipede king, we learned that the demon Taoist was still alive after burying himself in a coffin for more than a million years. He even woke up once later and completely suppressed it.
To this day, I don’t know if the demon Taoist in the coffin is still alive.
"The demon Taoist's realm back then was at the Holy Emperor's Ultimate Heaven. I am only a small heaven, so I am no match for him, especially since he has profound skills in Taoist talismans and has also refined many terrifying dark demon corpses!"
"What else?" Jun Wuxie continued to ask, "Tell me everything you know about the demon Taoist."
"The demon Taoist comes from a declining ancient sect called Yi Dao Sect. That sect is located in Yuzhou. I heard that a long time ago, Yi Dao Sect was not in Yuzhou. Later, the Taoist sect fell into decline and gradually declined. Then we moved to Yuzhou."
"He was the leader of the Dark Taoist sect of the Yi Dao Sect. The Dark Tao sect is mainly specialized in the method of refining corpses. This method is rejected by the world. It is said that the Yi Dao sect is because the people of the Dark Tao sect dig graves everywhere. They dug up people's ancestral tombs and stole the bodies of their ancestors, which eventually aroused public outrage and suffered a joint attack from many major forces, which led to their decline."
"They are refining corpses. They are digging ancestral graves to obtain corpses. No wonder they are going into decline..."
Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment. How could he maintain a large sect for a long time if he used this method to develop?
Digging up people's ancestral graves is too immoral, and people and gods will be angry, and they will inevitably be besieged.
The sect is too large and cannot be hidden. Unless it has the strength to cover the sky with one hand and intimidate the world, it will definitely be maimed.
"Why did the demon Taoist enter this ancient tomb and bury himself in the coffin?"
Hearing this, the ancient demon centipede king revealed a humanized look of memory in his two centipede eyes, "This story begins with the other sect of the Yi Dao Sect, the Undead Dao Sect..."
It said that Yi Dao Sect once rose up by practicing dark Taoism, and it was very prosperous for a long time. Until a certain era began, in order to pursue stronger strength, they began to fight against the ancestors of major families and sect ancestors. Burial idea.
People from the Dark Taoist sect want to use the bodies left behind by those who were extremely high during their lifetimes and use the corpse refining technique to refine a more powerful Dark Demonic Corpse.
The tombs of the ancestors of various sects and families were frequently stolen, making each sect furious.
Although the Dark Taoist sect has restrained somewhat, it has not stopped robbing graves and stealing corpses. It has only done so more covertly, but it was still discovered later.
During a certain battle with powerful men from various sects, someone from the Dark Taoist sect summoned the corpse of a certain force's deceased ancestor. This time, they completely destroyed the sects whose ancestral tombs had been stolen.
Many major forces in the world began to secretly unite to launch a crusade against the Yi Dao Sect, causing the Yi Dao Sect to suffer heavy losses. Almost all the strong men of the dark Tao sect within the sect were killed or injured.
In the end, only some disciples and a few high-level officials escaped. The demon Taoist was one of the high-level officials, as well as the saint of the Yi Dao Sect.
When the sect was destroyed, the leader of the different sect deeply realized that it was the dark Taoism that had brought disaster to the sect and ruined the eternal inheritance, so he passed the sect's position to a saint who practiced the Taoism of the Undead.
The dwindling Yi Dao Sect fled to Hanzhou and went into hiding, becoming a reclusive sect that had no interest in worldly affairs.
Many years later, the evil Taoist made the same mistake again. He could not hold back his desire and tried to steal the strong man's tomb again. However, he was discovered and almost died.
He ran away, but the two people he brought with him did not run away, revealing the sect's location.
The Yi Dao Sect ushered in the second wave of annihilation.
At that time, Linglong, the leader of the sect who practiced the art of undead, did not fight back in order to change the impression of the Yi Dao Sect in the minds of the people in the world. He just defended blindly and protected the disciples of the sect from evacuating.
But she was ultimately outnumbered, and because she only defended and did not counterattack, she missed the opportunity, making herself increasingly passive.
Even though she was seriously injured, she did not use the secret technique of necromancy to fight back, but chose to escape.
Those forces did not stop there and pursued them all the way.
Linglong had no choice but to flee all the way, almost being killed several times along the way. In anger, she finally couldn't help it and used the undead magic to fight back for the first time.
Because she faced too many enemies at that time, she was in a bad condition. Knowing that the battle could not last long, she used the forbidden technique at any cost, killing a large number of pursuers and seriously injuring all the others.
She eventually fled to Qingzhou and somehow discovered this ancient tomb. She entered it by chance and "buried" herself in the cave in the tomb, both to heal her injuries and to temporarily protect herself.
The ancient demon centipede king said that the cave is not an ordinary place, and there is a mysterious passage under the abyss.
That passage is the only way out of the cave, and it is said that it is also the way to the underworld. It is filled with pure yin energy.
The saprophytic flowers around the stone platform can absorb pure yin energy through the ground of the stone platform, and transfer it to the metal coffin through some special roots.
"The road to hell?" Jun Wuxie's pupils shrank. Is it really the road to hell? He thought for a while and decided not to dwell on the matter for the time being, and said: "So, in the coffin with elegant and slender lines below, the last generation leader of the Yi Dao Sect, Linglong, is buried? The hanging coffin above, then. Is it the coffin of a demon Taoist?"
"Yes."
The ancient demon centipede king nodded.
"You haven't said why the demon Taoist came in, why he sealed himself in the coffin, and hung the coffin above the exquisite coffin of the sect leader. What did he mean?"
"The demon Taoist actually came to this ancient tomb accidentally. After seeing Linglong's coffin, he wanted to seal Linglong tightly in the coffin. He also tampered with Linglong's coffin to blind her perception. This makes her unable to perceive the situation outside. Except when the saprophyte flowers are damaged, she can feel that there is a problem with the things connected to her coffin, and she doesn't know anything else."
"Does he have a conflict with the sect leader Linglong?"
"Conflict is a conflict of interest. The demon Taoist wants to be the sect master, but he is not convinced that the sect master is a person who practices undead arts. He wants to kill the sect leader Linglong, snatch the hereditary order, become the sect master, and only inherit the dark arts from now on. But he is afraid , even if Linglong is seriously injured, once a desperate counterattack is launched, the demon Taoist will most likely be dragged away."
"So he chose this method of sealing and blinding, in order to make Linglong Sect Master unable to sense anything and sleep in the coffin all the time, while he himself could take advantage of this to practice slowly. He never thought that the evil Taoist Heart Demon Tai Deep, long years have passed, and he has tried many times but has been unable to break through..."
The ancient demon centipede king spoke unhurriedly.
It means that the demon Taoist will wake up once every ten thousand years. After waking up, he will practice cultivation, but every time he will fail.
To this day, the demon Taoist still has not been able to break through the realm, and is still not sure that he can kill the sect leader Linglong and successfully seize the hereditary order without risking his life.
"What kind of realm is Linglong? Even though he is seriously injured and extremely weak, he still makes the demon Taoist fear this."
"She was half-step to the Saint Ancestor realm back then. She was one of the few amazing talents in the history of the Yi Dao Sect who practiced the art of undead and reached the Half-Step Saint Ancestor realm."
Jun Wuxie was quite shocked. You must know that only the dominant forces in the upper world have strong men in the realm of Saint Ancestors. Even with the decline of Yi Dao Sect, there are actually half-step Saint Ancestors.
From the words of the ancient Monster King, we learned that Linglong was a saint of that generation before she succeeded to the throne, which means she is not very old.
Later, the Yi Dao Sect went into hiding. Although the time was not short, it did not last for many years.
That era was not a golden age. It was truly remarkable that Linglong could cultivate to the half-step Saint Ancestor realm within such a time period.
"Have you ever seen the undead magic? How powerful it is when used against enemies. How does it compare to the dark magic?"
"It depends on whether they are in the same realm. If they are in the same realm, the Tao of the Undead is far better than the Tao of the Dark. However, the Tao of the Dark is much easier to practice than the Tao of the Undead. Since ancient times, few people have been able to practice the Tao of the Undead to a high level. Realm, so most of the time within the Yi Dao Sect, it is in a state of decline."
"As for its power, I can only say that it is quite terrifying. I have seen the art of undeath. It was a huge scene with thousands of troops and horses, like an epic war. It's the kind of thing where there is only one person, but it can be... The scene of summoning an endless army of undead in an instant is still deeply shocking when I think about it..."
Jun Wuxie's eyebrows couldn't stop bouncing when he heard this.
Beside him, Xu Yanning and An Ning also had shocked expressions on their faces.
Can you summon an army of the undead?
What kind of picture is that? Isn't one person equivalent to one or more large armies?
Among them, Xu Yanning is the most interested in this, because her strongest talent is to practice the art of controlling spirits, and the art of controlling spirits is the summoning technique.
The difference is that she summons ancient beasts and gods, with a limited number, far from the exaggerated scenes of undead magic.
"How do you know so clearly? It's like you have experienced the whole process!"
Jun Wuxie was confused, but his heart was already a little hot about the undead technique.
Such a Taoist method may not be as simple as a saint-level method.
Otherwise, how could there be such a terrifying scene as described by the Monster Centipede King?
"Because I accidentally discovered the gathering of strong men from those forces, I was curious, so I secretly followed and witnessed the whole process. Even when they were chasing the Linglong Sect Leader, I followed them, thinking that when they would both be injured and leave corpses all over the ground, I You could still get a bargain, but in the end you didn’t get anything. Instead, you were discovered by the evil Taoist and fell into his hands. You really made yourself miserable..."
Jun Wuxie listened to the words of the ancient demon centipede king and thought to himself.
According to what it said, Linglong's mind was not affected and became dark because she did not practice the dark arts. This can be seen from the fact that she was really desperate and only used her ultimate move to fight back the pursuers.
"For such a person, I helped her get rid of the control of the demon Taoist, rescued her from the sealed coffin, and gained freedom. She should not repay kindness with enmity. If she could repay kindness and give me the art of the undead, that would be perfect. Already..."
Jun Wuxie felt itchy, and the art of undead was very attractive to him.
He was eager to see what this undead art was like and what level it belonged to.
