"The Immortality Art? H-how could that be possible?"
After hearing Yang Qing out, Ouyang Lin was the first to speak, his expression wooden with shock.
Those words held far too much information, and it was utterly horrifying.
Had all the emperors of Eastern Splendor been practicing the Immortality Art?
If that were true, why had Eastern Splendor still fallen?
Moreover, from the Primordial Ancestor Emperor to Emperor Zhetian, not a single ruler of Eastern Splendor had lived out his natural lifespan.
Yes, not a single one.
Emperor Zhetian had even died suddenly in the prime of his life.
Yet Yang Qing claimed that those lofty sovereigns of legend had all been practicing the Immortality Art, something even less credible than legends themselves?
Did such a Taoist Art really exist in this world?
No.
If it really existed, they could not possibly have heard nothing about it.
Looking at the others' stunned faces, Yang Qing sighed softly. "Actually, I don't believe it either. But I have no choice."
Yang Qing paused before continuing, "I saw some of the things recorded on that Heavenly Stone. The Immortality Art was among them."
The Immortality Art? It really existed.
Yang Qing said, "But although this Taoist Art exists, everyone who came into contact with it seems to have died."
Otherwise, they would not have found the Primordial Ancestor Emperor's coffin here.
Rather than continuing, Yang Qing fixed the others with an intent gaze. "What do you think about this?"
Jiang Zhizhou said, "If Eastern Splendor had completely given up on the Immortality Art, they wouldn't still be so secretive about the Heavenly Stone. And as the founding Primordial Ancestor of the Eastern Radiance Kingdom, his coffin wouldn't be here."
As an emperor, he should naturally have been laid to rest in the Imperial Mausoleum.
