Upon hearing Yang Zhen's words, Wei Wujin was visibly stunned, seemingly surprised that such a strange name existed in the world. However, he immediately continued, "I, Wei Wujin, swear by my very soul that if Yang Decao can remove the Technique Talisman from my body, I will obey Yang Decao's every command and protect him for life. If I break this oath, may Heaven and Earth Rejection not tolerate me, and may my soul be annihilated!"
"I, Shan Yang, swear by my very soul..."
"I, Ma Hai, swear by my very soul..."
"I, Duan Wuque, swear by my very soul..."
The simultaneous sound of twenty-four voices startled and shocked Yang Zhen Yang Zhen.
Damn, he's got so many underlings in the blink of an eye?
The key point is that these underlings, who just a moment ago looked like they wanted to kill him, are now all completely obedient, and to the point that their souls have been annihilated, making them unforgivable by Heaven and Earth Rejection.
Rumble!
The violent lightning surged and churned in mid-air, becoming overwhelming in the blink of an eye.
Twenty-four people swore an oath; the scene was absolutely astonishing. Thunder roared in mid-air like a raging dragon, surging and tumbling, its deafening roar echoing as it moved up and down.
Gong Sanhe and the other two were dumbfounded, especially Ding Chun, whose eyes were filled with endless envy as she looked at Yang Zhen, as if she wished she could take his place.
Wen Yuning looked at Yang Zhen with curiosity, especially when Yang Zhen said her name Yang Decao. The look of surprise on her face made Yang Zhen feel a little sorry for her. What an innocent girl.
But... damn it!
Yang Zhen looked up at the raging thunder of the oath in mid-air, a million alpacas stampeding through his mind. Could such an oath even hold true?
With so many underlings in the blink of an eye, won't they be able to walk around with their heads held high from now on?
Damn it, I should have given my real name. I've really made a huge mistake.
Yang Zhen glanced at the shocked Gong Sanhe, sneered, and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, oaths are just something to be done with, don't take them too seriously. Besides, this ' Sage of Saunter ' roams the world alone, coming and going as he pleases. What use do I have for you sarcastic underlings?"
"This..." Death Shadow's face stiffened, he shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "In that case, I will not disturb you any longer."
"Etc!"
If they just left like that, these people would probably be slaughtered by the Mara Sect without a single one left. After all, they were twenty-five lives, and Yang Zhen still had some compassion for them.
Although Yang Zhen wouldn't actually remove the Technique Talisman from them, he could still tell them how.
After explaining the method for removing the item from the body in a way they could barely manage, Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, "What are you all standing there for? Want your storage rings back? Get lost!"
A look of surprise flashed across Death Shadow's face, as if he had discovered that Yang Zhen's method was indeed feasible. Upon hearing this, he glared at the twenty-four Death Servants and snapped, "What are you all standing there for? Get out of here!"
Are you free?
Is that all?
The twenty-four Deadpools stared at Yang Zhen in disbelief. After glancing at the Deadpools, they all bowed to Yang Zhen in a gesture of allegiance before slowly leaving the canyon.
"You two don't even have this much sense!" Death Shadow sneered, glaring at the backs of the twenty-four Death Servants before turning around in surprise and asking, "What's wrong?"
Yang Zhen glared at the Death Shadow and asked, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Death Shadow laughed loudly and said, "No way! That old fellow Gong Sanhe must have something good to offer if he comes to a place like this. How could I possibly leave?"
Gong Sanhe flew into a rage, pointing at the Death Shadow and saying, "You old bastard, have you no shame?"
The Death Shadow sneered, glancing sideways at Gong Sanhe, and said, "Old man Gong, no matter what you say, I won't leave. There are definitely good things here. What if you harbor evil intentions and try to harm young friend Yang? Wouldn't I be breaking my oath?"
"You..." Gong Sanhe stared at the Death Shadow in disbelief, then snorted coldly, "Nonsense! How could I possibly lay a hand on young friend Yang?"
"That's hard to say!" The Death Shadow seemed determined not to leave.
Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, "If we're not going, then we're not going. Anyway, it's still uncertain whether we can even enter the Heavenly Secret Lock."
"What?" The Death Shadow's eyes widened suddenly, and he exclaimed, " The Heavenly Secret Lock?"
"Don't shout so loudly!" Yang Zhen glared at Death Shadow and said, "Senior Gong said that people from your Mara Sect rarely attack others first, so why did that guy want to kill me the moment he saw me?"
Death Shadow took a deep breath, recovering from the shock of the Heavenly Secret Lock, and after a moment of contemplation, said, "Now that I think about it, this matter is indeed a bit strange. That Death Servant seemed flustered; could he have encountered some danger?"
Gong Sanhe pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's not that we encountered any danger, it's more likely that we encountered some kind of person!"
"What?" Death Shadow's face darkened, his eyes turning sinister. He stared at Gong Sanhe for a moment, then nodded and said, "I'm afraid that's the case."
Yang Zhen was taken aback, looking at the two with suspicion, and asked, "How many people actually came in this batch?"
Whether it was the people from the Mara Palace or Gong Sanhe and his two companions, they all entered before Yang Zhen, and it's very likely that they were the ones who triggered the restriction of the Heavenly Saint Law.
Now, after hearing what Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow said, it seems there's someone else besides Gong Sanhe and the Mara Palace?
How many people actually got in?
After a moment of contemplation, Death Shadow explained, "The people who came in this time were a mixed bunch, but even those from the Mara Palace scattered after entering. The same must have happened to Old Man Gong's Ancient Life Sect. The world is about to change, and the High Antiquity Ruins have undergone astonishing changes. The environment inside is vastly different, making it impossible to act according to what we've seen before. It's only natural that we would encounter danger."
At this point, Death Shadow glanced at Gong Sanhe and said with a smile, "I just didn't expect that even the Heavenly Secret Lock, one of the Nine Heavenly Secret Sites, would be found by you, you old geezer."
Gong Sanhe shook his head and looked at Yang Zhen, saying, "No, no, it was actually young friend Yang Decao who found the Heavenly Secret Lock."
"What?" The Death Shadow was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter, saying, "I knew it! I've never had any real skills in my life, except for these eyes, which are passable. How could I have misjudged someone?"
Yang Zhen glanced at the Death Shadow. Although the eyes were still decent, the old guy's head was clearly a bit senile.
The group of five walked into the canyon, and the atmosphere became increasingly heavy, with the power of heaven and earth growing stronger along the way.
Gong Sanhe's expression gradually calmed down. He stared at the terrifying, churning air currents in mid-air and said in a deep voice, " The Will of Heaven and Earth is growing stronger. Even if the Heavenly Secret Lock isn't here, this place is definitely not an ordinary location. Everyone, be careful."
Even Death Shadow abandoned his initial contempt and observed his surroundings with a thoughtful expression.
" The Nine Heavenly Secret Sites are all perilous places, fraught with danger and a near-death experience. If this is the Heavenly Secret Lock Heavenly Secret Lock, then we probably haven't truly entered its location yet."
Yang Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was happening.
The Heavenly Secret Lock has been used to lock away the secrets of Heavenly Secrets since ancient times. Although this place has a terrifying aura and a strange feeling everywhere, it does not have any Heavenly Secrets secret aura. Instead, it is mostly a terrifying Will of Heaven and Earth and earth, like an ancient, towering beast that is watching over all things in heaven and earth.
This feeling is uncomfortable, like a natural enemy watching you, ready to strike at any moment, making you tense and inevitably a little irritable.
On both sides of the canyon, there are sheer cliffs everywhere, and above the endless sky, the sky is chaotic, with waves of air rolling.
A chilling aura enveloped the five of them. The further they went, the less they could see their surroundings, as if they had entered another world, giving them a sense of unease.
What exactly is the Heavenly Secret Lock?
