"Whoosh!"
Just as that Alien Race expert believed his extraordinary talent would let him seize a great opportunity ahead of everyone else, the opportunity he coveted shot out a blazing azure ray of immortal light. In that instant, he became the sole, eternal focus of heaven and earth-the first expert to fall beneath that immortal light. It pierced straight through his brow, and the light faded from his eyes, which still held traces of that dazzling immortal radiance, along with terror and regret.
Many people nearby sucked in a breath of cold air. The Alien Race expert who had died ranked among the top two hundred cultivators present.
Yet he had died so effortlessly.
Everyone, including Qin Yao, watched his body disintegrate inch by inch beneath the azure immortal light, crumbling into dust and vanishing into ash.
"What was that?"
At that moment, even Goddess Xin Lan and the Exiled Immortal Qing Shi were frightened. They looked at the Heavenly Jade Saintess beside them, since she had entered to protect them on their path.
"I sensed imperial might. We should ask Sister Qingyao about this."
The Heavenly Jade Saintess spoke in a cool, detached voice.
"It's a damaged Emperor Armament attacking on its own."
As a Quasi-Emperor, Gu Qingyao immediately pinpointed its source. Using the secret technique Jiang Ming had taught her, the Heavenly Emperor Qi-Gazing Art, she saw a small fragment of a ruler.
She had a rough idea of where the problem lay.
This was not the tomb of a Human Race Great Emperor, but the tomb of a Demon Race Great Emperor-a Demon Sovereign.
Now it all depended on what Jiang Ming would do.
Jiang Ming, however, had no intention of acting rashly. He was observing as well.
The damaged Demon Emperor Armament actually held little appeal
