What?
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Ancestor was greatly surprised, and his expression instantly changed.
Without saying a word, he suddenly made a move, his fair hand emerging from his sleeve and crashing down upon the entire Seven Springs Mountain.
wow
The array surrounding Seven Springs Mountain sensed his presence and automatically dissipated and retreated.
But at this moment
Buzz!
A thin layer of bluish-green light suddenly shot up and blocked his palm.
Look closely:
That layer of azure light was completely attached to the space of Seven Springs Mountain, like a mirror, reflecting another space, another world!
Such a covert method would be difficult for even the Ninth Ancestor to detect, even when they were right next to him, before they made their move!
this!!
The Ninth Ancestor's expression instantly turned extremely ugly; he, too, recognized this method:
The Heaven-Substituting Technique!
His eyes instantly blazed with boundless fury, his white hair flew wildly, and he was enraged to the extreme!
Look closely:
Within that azure light, there was clearly another Seven Springs Mountain!
On the summit of Seven Springs Mountain, the tomb of the Saint King had been excavated, and more than a dozen unconscious figures lay scattered about.
Clearly, the people from the Sage Evolution Palace had already succeeded; what they left behind was merely a supernatural technique!
The person who made the move was clearly a saintly being at the Extreme Transformation Realm, and the supernatural power they left behind was at the level of the Dharma Possesses a Primal Spirit Realm, which was why they could maintain it for so long!
Miscellaneous items from the Sage Evolution Palace
Chen Qingyu was also gritting his teeth, his face extremely ugly.
He never expected this:
He caused the Sage Evolution Palace a great loss at the Yanggu Zhang Clan in the Southern Region, but the people of the Sage Evolution Palace turned around and dug up his ancestral graves!
They even stole the remains of the Saint King Chenliu!
Click!
The Ninth Ancestor continued to exert force with his palm, his whole body filled with starlight. That hazy blue radiance could not withstand it in an instant and shattered inch by inch.
After a layer of blue light flashed across the entire Seven Springs Mountain, the scenery at the summit changed dramatically in an instant.
It was as if space itself had been switched, with one world reflecting into another.
Ancestors
After the Heaven-Substituting Technique was broken, Chen Qingyu flew into the sky and arrived in front of the Ninth Ancestor. Looking at the devastated mountaintop, his expression was heavy.
We were too negligent.
Chen Qingyu's face was gloomy, and his voice was low:
On the Desolate Continent, let alone the remains of Saint King, even the remains of a Saint are basically preserved in the Great Yin Grotto of various holy lands.
But the remains of our Chen Clan, the Saint King Chenliu, were buried outside Central Capital.
The protective formation of Seven Springs Mountain, though powerful, was unguarded, unlike the Great Yin Grotto.
This is a clear loophole.
The Sage Evolution Palace somehow learned of this secret, seized this loophole, and used Chen Qingjie to enter Seven Springs Mountain without alerting anyone, thus stealing the remains of the Saint King Chenliu!
call!
He took a deep breath, his voice hoarse:
Judging from the situation, Sage Evolution Palace must have made the move about a month ago.
Before long, they will possess a Saint King- level Corpse Demon, invincible across the Desolate Continent, who will also be my Chen Clan's ancestor!
The situation will be extremely unfavorable for us.
With a Saint King- level combat power, it would be enough to destroy many weaker and less powerful holy lands.
Once the Holy Land is destroyed and the Great Yin Grotto is opened, the power of the Sage Evolution Palace will expand like a snowball, quickly sweeping across the entire Desolate Continent and overturning the world's order!
Don't be impatient!
The Ninth Ancestor waved his hand, exhaled a breath of turbid air, seemingly having temporarily suppressed his anger:
The people who Sage Evolution Palace have not yet succeeded.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu's expression changed immediately, and he pressed for an answer:
Ancestor, do you mean...?
The Ninth Ancestor spoke:
We, the Chen Clan of Changluo, dare to bury our ancestors here. Have we not considered the possibility that the tomb might be vandalized, the bodies stolen, or deliberately desecrated?
In fact, the remains of the Saint King Chenliu are related to the Myriad Stars Armillary Heaven Bell.
If the body moves, I will immediately sense it.
In reality, I did not sense any signs, which was enough to prove that the Sage Evolution Palace had not succeeded.
He paused, pointed to the Seven Springs Mountain, and said:
Look, the coffin in that mountaintop tomb is still intact, which is enough to prove this point.
Upon hearing this, a look of confusion flashed in Chen Qingyu's eyes:
Since the people from the Sage Evolution Palace had infiltrated Seven Springs Mountain and excavated the tomb, why did they abandon the idea of stealing the remains?
Upon hearing this, the Ninth Ancestor frowned:
I can't figure this out yet either.
Logically speaking, with the strength of the Sage Evolution Palace, it should have been able to tear through the void instantly with the remains of the Saint King, escape the Ancient Kingdom of Chenliu, and escape the sensing range of the Myriad Stars Armillary Heaven Bell.
If they do that, I might not be able to stop them if I'm caught off guard and unprepared.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu felt a sense of unease.
this
He hesitated for a moment, then spoke in a low voice:
Ancestors, should we open the coffin and examine it?
He instinctively felt that the people from the Sage Evolution Palace had clearly opened the tomb, but had given up on stealing the Saint King's remains. Perhaps something had happened to the Saint King's remains themselves.
If his guess is true, then the nature of the matter will be completely different.
Huh? Opening the coffin?
The Ninth Ancestor frowned, hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath and said:
So be it.
Although this action is disrespectful to our ancestors, in such extraordinary times, we can't afford to worry about such things.
His ideas were basically the same as Chen Qingyu's.
Even if it's extremely disrespectful, and you have to kneel and apologize to your ancestors afterwards, you still need to find out the condition of the body first.
soon:
The Ninth Ancestor and Chen Qingyu flew together to the top of Seven Springs Mountain.
On the mountaintop, the tomb had been dug up, with broken bluestone and bricks scattered everywhere, and more than a dozen unconscious figures lying haphazardly.
Look closely:
These figures were all dressed in black armor, with star markings engraved on it.
Qingjie cousin
Chen Qingyu's gaze fell on a short-haired young man among the many unconscious people.
He had seen Chen Qingjie's portrait in Taihe Garden before, so he recognized him at a glance.
Being able to escape with one's life is a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
Chen Qingyu sighed silently in his heart.
As an army of cultivators, the Stars Heavenly Army can instantly locate a member who has been killed using its own methods.
The people from the Sage Evolution Palace probably didn't kill them because they were aware of this.
Ancestor, Kaiyuan has been disrespectful.
The Ninth Ancestor respectfully bowed to the broken tombstone before carefully waving a beam of starlight to open the jade coffin in the burial pit.
Inside the coffin:
Lying on the right is a woman of ordinary appearance, plump and dignified, with her eyes closed, as if she were asleep.
However
On the left side of the coffin, however, there was nothing at all!
this
Chen Qingyu and Ninth Ancestor's pupils contracted, and their expressions changed simultaneously.
They finally understood why the people from the Sage Evolution Palace, despite having dug up the tomb, had given up on stealing the remains of the Saint King Chenliu.
Because the coffin was originally empty!
The Saint King's remains have disappeared sometime ago!
