Everything happened so quickly, almost in the twinkling of an eye.
The sword, assumes a posture to thrust!
For a long time, I have used the Gao Tian sword to fight enemies and have accumulated ample experience!
The emperor suddenly raised his hand, reaching for the Gao Tian sword!
His speed was just as fast. The Gao Tian sword was instantly held in his hand. A faint sound of dissatisfaction was heard, but the sword still squeezed its way through his palm and pointed at his lips.
The blood that oozed out was very strange, thick and black like ink, with only a trace of red barely contained within it.
Emperor Shi, also known as Jueyang Yin Shi, is essentially yin. Its blood is this color, indicating the extreme yin.
He lifted his other hand, grabbed the whip's head, and pulled it hard forward!
The effect of the fox-binding rope has already been exhausted.
I felt an unprecedented strong force pulling me, dragging me forward and pushing me towards the front.
Even if I immediately let go, I staggered forward several steps before finally stopping the momentum.
"Must be executed!"
The deafening roar made my ears ache painfully.
Liushen Qi, Liuyujie, and Liumei were all around me in an instant. The three of them moved in perfect unison, flipping through the air with their bodies, waving their sleeves in unison, and a beam of gold flashed out.
"Hear ye, the sky is round and the earth is square, there are nine chapters of laws and commands. Today, we break the soil, and all things will be auspicious! With one sweep of the golden spade, good fortune fills the hills, and ghosts and demons, malevolent beings, will flee to distant places!"
Amidst the resounding blasts and howling, the golden beam struck the emperor's corpse.
It was only after it stopped moving that I saw it was three shovels, very delicate, about the length of half an arm!
This emperor Shi has already been very tough and thick-skinned.
He raised his arm to block the three artifacts, and at least the Gao Tian sword cut through his skin and pierced his lips. These three gold shovels didn't even hurt the emperor Shi!
He swung his arm fiercely, and the golden shovels flew back abruptly.
This angle was too clever, and it happened to strike the three people of Liu Zhenqi, Liu Yujie, and Liu Taiyin!
Not only the golden shovels, but also the Gao Tian sword!
The Gao Tian sword had the loudest roar and the fastest speed, directly heading towards me!
I suddenly dodged to the right, and heard a loud boom. The sword penetrated directly into the ground, and I could only see the handle faintly through the soil.
Liu Zhenqi, Liu Yujie, and Liu Taiyin managed to avoid it but swept their sleeves in unison, striking out with their whisks!
With a crackling sound of air being split, the spell was activated again.
"With the golden spade raised once more, the tomb is at peace. For a thousand years and more, wealth and prosperity will be yours!"
"One stroke opens the heavens!"
The golden shovels struck towards the Emperor Shi again.
This time, it was a direct hit on the head!
The Emperor Shi raised his arms, protecting his head and the front of his forehead.
The three of them approached quickly!
After the golden shovel struck the Emperor Shi's arms, he again swung his arms, sending it flying.
In the eyes, the three elders of Liu family were agile and swift in their movements.
The golden glow kept flashing nonstop, and the spell's chant became increasingly loud.
"Two strokes seal the land's gate!"
"Three strokes seal the ghostly path!"
"Four strokes make the human path smooth and clear!"
I've seen three real people strike together before, but such synchronized and unified movements are truly unprecedented.
Any single elder would be an absolute master among masters, and when combined, their power is far more than tripled. Even an exorcist would struggle to withstand it for long.
This is truly the most terrifying aspect.
Empire Shi's only visible damage was the constant shattering of his black python robe, yet he still appeared unscathed.
The body is too tenacious.
It might not be weaker than Dai Hong's Feathered Ashen Corpse.
I didn't watch the whole match. I had already returned to the spot where the Gao Tian sword had penetrated the ground, grabbed the hilt, and pulled it out with all my might.
On the other side, Mao Sheng seemed to want to join in the fray.
But the continuous offensive of the few elders of Liu family made it impossible for him to get in!
After pulling out the Gao Tian sword, I found the same—difficulty in breaking through.
"Spell: The sky is round and the earth is square, there are nine chapters of laws and commands. I now lay down my seal, and all harm will be driven away. All ghosts will hide, homes will be peaceful, and travels will be smooth. Population will thrive, and I offer my devotion to the Supreme Old Lord. May it be done quickly like the laws!"
"With the law to seal the root, no trouble will ever come again. The master holds a spell and slices the blade thrice. When the spirit arises, at the place of stopping the carriages, avoid calamities and demons. When ghosts see it, they feel melancholy; ghost arrow feathers, blood amulet to suppress, ghosts rest peacefully."
Three more talismans were shot out, wrapping towards the Emperor Shi!
This process seemed to have been practiced over a hundred times, too familiar.
In the next moment, Liu Yujie suddenly leapt forward. Liu Taiyin and Liu Zhenqi simultaneously blocked in front of him, holding hands and forming a frame. Liu Yujie stepped on their hands, and they pushed upwards while Liu Yujie burst into greater momentum. He was almost lifting up two catties high.
At the same time, the Emperor Shi's body shook abruptly.
With a loud hua, the talismans were completely shattered.
The large talismans that could suppress the coffin earlier were not powerful enough to contain the Emperor Shi himself.
"Roll!"
The Emperor Shi raised his head and stared at the sky with a pair of double eyes, his hands interlocked as he defended against Liu Yujie!
From Liu Yujie's body, something fell first.
I could see clearly that the object was square, another piece of jade, to be precise, a jade seal.
He stood on one leg and stepped on the jade seal.
The Emperor Shi's hands, perfectly caught the jade seal!
Liu Yujie exerted his full body force downwards, the Emperor Shi's arms bent, and his face was extremely angry as he roared, "Don't think you can ever restrain me again!"
"This is a fetish. The Empress Shi has a mouth fetish, and so does this Corpse Emperor. The ancient city of Guangxiang was able to keep such a corpse as its guardian, indicating it has some abilities." Wu Jinluang sighed.
It could be seen that the Emperor Shi's body gradually became stiff, his arms being pressed lower and lower, and the jade seal was about to fall on his head.
Liu Yujie formed hand seals with both hands, balanced one leg on his knee, and levitated above. The pressure instantly increased!
The jade seal landed abruptly in the center of the Corpse Emperor's forehead.
With this strike, the Emperor Shi directly lost all mobility, his hands hanging limply by his sides, and he stood upright without moving.
I let out a breath of relief.
Wu Jinluang was also overjoyed in the same way.
"The Emperor Shi is much more troublesome than the Empress Shi, and in a way, even more difficult to deal with than Dai Hong. However, all things have their yin and yang, and this jade seal is probably his imperial jade seal, right?" Wu Jinluang's face showed deep admiration.
"Haha, indeed, the Emperor Shi, as a ruler of the nation, is fond of elixirs and seeks immortality. Who knows that while the elixir is good, it uses Corpse flesh as medicine and stones? After eating the Corpse flesh elixir for decades, he himself has not died but has become a Corpse. The Corpse loves Yang Qi, which is what we call the 'Emperor Shi Adoring Yang', or 'Yuan Yang Yin Shi'." Liu Zhenqi explained.
"Fengshi gave the Emperor Shi elixirs?" Wu Jinluang pondered.
Liu Zhenqi's gaze fell on me.
I had told him about the elixir made from the heart meat of the Emperor Shi.
"Usually, practitioners are servants of the Corpse Emperor. Luo Dao Zhang obtained that pill, but it was actually used by practitioners as medicine for the Corpse Emperor. It's quite rare." Liu Yujie's voice sounded.
We noticed that he had jumped down from the Emperor Shi's head, brushed off his robes, looking very relaxed, and approached us.
"Find the traitor, and the ancient city will be peaceful..."
As Liu Zhenqi's voice was about to fall, a shrill scream suddenly echoed!
I saw a stream of light shooting towards us from the other side of the mountain. We were already quite close to the foot of the mountain, and the Emperor Shi was only about thirty meters away.
The stream of light was even closer; it turned out to be an arrow.
The arrow hit the jade seal!
There was a loud boom, and the jade seal turned into countless powder.
This scene happened too quickly and too suddenly, before Liu Zhenqi could finish his sentence.
I had goosebumps on my scalp and my body was covered in goosebumps.
The Emperor Shi's arms suddenly lifted, reaching towards the top of Liu Yujie's head.
Liu Yujie just started to react, his body was about to shoot forward, and at the same time, he turned his head to look behind!
"Liu Second Elder! Come back!"
I roared in anger!
But it was too fast.
The Emperor Shi's speed is hard to describe. Even if Gao Tian's sword was shot out, he could react and catch it.
Especially at this moment, he was filled with anger. The jade seal had just been broken, and in less than half a breath, Liu Yujie couldn't escape. The Emperor Shi caught his head!
In the blink of an eye, Liu Yujie's skin became withered and his hair pale. He seemed to be being drained of life power wildly!
An excited laughter echoed from the Emperor Shi's mouth.
"Ha ha ha ha! The jade seal has been destroyed, how can you still suppress me!?”
"Second Brother!"
"Second Uncle!"
Liu Zhenqi and Liu Taiyin's voices had changed tone, twisted and trembling. They were almost simultaneously charging forward!
Just at this moment, the Emperor Shi's gaze was fierce. He lifted his leg and kicked Liu Yujie on his back, propelling him flying out.
Liu Zhenqi and Liu Taiyin's attacks changed abruptly, and they became defensive, trying to catch Liu Yujie.
They retreated quickly, arriving next to us.
The Emperor Shi's arms slightly spread open, his head thrown back, as if silently sensing the dust from the shattered jade seal. His laughter grew louder and more continuous, causing the bricks and stones on the ground to tremble.
I looked at the Emperor Shi with great vigilance, my chest burning with anger and even a slight pain in my heart.
Far away, Mao Sheng was furiously glaring in the direction of the mountain.
"Second Brother can't hold on anymore..." Liu Zhenqi's face was filled with despair.
Liu Hua Yin trembled uncontrollably on his shoulder, tears forming in his eyes, one after another. He was an old man now and his tears were ready to fall at any moment.
"He... he's... gone mad..." Liu Yujie could only move his lips slightly, struggling to force out the three words.
"The Corpse Emperor... kill... kill..." He suddenly raised his hand, tightly grasping Liu Zhenqi's wrist.
"He has gone mad!" Liu Zhenqi's eyes were filled with unprecedented murderous intent!
That cold killing aura made me feel as if my skin was pricking.
"He is a traitor, but depending on his actions at the time, he simply went against the direction of Guangxiang ancient city. Overall, he is still a person of Guangxiang ancient city. The things to consider are not about completely destroying Guangxiang ancient city. From his desire to obtain an identity and reintegrate into it again, this can be seen as a conclusion."
"But he destroyed the Corpse Emperor's suppressing object. He knows the consequences: there will be no one left to suppress the Corpse Emperor here. One elder has been lost, and we may all be annihilated at this place..."
Wu Jinluang's face was filled with despair.
I didn't say anything, but I took out the evil Corpse pill that I had just taken from Mao Sheng.
The surging anger was overflowing.
"This... " Liu Zhenqi's eyes were even redder.
"Gratitude is unworthy of words!" Liu Taiyin quickly took the Corpse pill and directly fed it into Liu Yujie's mouth.
"I don't know if it's good or bad. The anger is so intense that it seems like it will consume all of them. Eating this Corpse pill might cause some of them to become weaker..." Lao Gong arrived next to us.
"I'm just glad it's better than dying now." I said as soon as I spoke.
Liu Yujie, however, made a sudden sound and spat out the Corpse pill.
"Second Brother! What are you doing?" Liu Zhenqi's expression was panic-stricken.
Liu Yujie, gone without a pulse…
His face was smiling, yet it was filled with despair, frozen in place.
