A living human head!
It sounded utterly unbelievable, but Yun Ning had seen it with her own eyes!
However, the head exuded Death Qi. Though its eyes were lively, its gaze was strangely numb.
"Is this a Primordial Creature?" Yun Ning asked softly.
Chu Yang shook his head, carefully examining the human head before saying with a chuckle, "This head came from a 'corpse.'"
"A corpse?" Yun Ning frowned, unable to understand.
Chu Yang clearly was not referring to an ordinary dead body. There were countless corpses in the world. Even the head of a Great Emperor could not possibly come back to life after so many years!
Chu Yang did not explain further, because the matter was simply too complicated.
This head was connected to the Underworld. It was the handiwork of a transcendent expert of the Corpse Dao.
No wonder it had been brought to the Old Jade Pool Site for sealing. That place contained the ominous aura left behind by the Underworld.
Both the origins of the Underworld and the Corpse Dao dated back to an unimaginably ancient era. It could not be explained in just a few words.
Simply put, the misfortune encountered in the later years of either a Great Accomplishment Sacred Body or a Source Heavenly Master was closely tied to the Underworld.
This head did not seem to be a product of some remote age. It should not have existed for too long, though it was still at least tens of thousands of years old.
Even after the fall of the Heavenly Court, the Underworld had continued to exist. It simply rarely walked the world, so very few people knew of it.
Chu Yang raised a hand and pressed it against the head, narrowing his eyes slightly.
He sensed a familiar aura.
