Two Sovereigns Meet

"This concerns my clan from the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings; how could I possibly discuss it with an outsider like you?"

The corpse general spoke coldly at that moment.

As a person of sound mind who has attained this position, how could he possibly reveal his clan's secrets just because of a single sentence from Fang Weiyan?

Fang Weiyan wasn't surprised by these words.

He was just asking casually; it would be strange if the other party actually said it outright.

"This place does seem rather unusual."

Fang Weiyan glanced around; there were no withered bones on the ground.

Something's definitely off here.

In other places, the ground was covered with dry bones, piled up layer upon layer like mountains.

This is why those guys were able to reconstruct their bodies elsewhere even after they were shattered.

The ground is covered with materials; can't we just piece them together however we want?

However, there is no such material here, which is rather strange.

Upon hearing this, the corpse general standing nearby immediately emanated a chilling aura.

It was clear that the other person seemed a little nervous.

Upon seeing this, Fang Weiyan's heart skipped a beat. Judging from the situation, it seemed there was something here that the other party cared about quite a bit?

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan immediately wanted to explore further, but he had only just begun to consider it.

The corpse general in front suddenly lunged at Fang Weiyan.

It seems like he's prepared to fight Fang Weiyan to the death.

Fang Weiyan's expression darkened upon seeing this. The guy in front of him seemed to have some strength, but Fang Weiyan didn't think he could be his match.

Immediately, Fang Weiyan moved his hand and drew the Son of Heaven Sword directly from his waist.

With a whoosh, a flash of cold light appeared, and the corpse opposite was about to be cleaved in two.

However, the next moment, a hand appeared out of nowhere and grabbed the Sword-Ray.

With a slight exertion of force, the Sword-Ray's edge was instantly crushed into powder.

Upon seeing this, Fang Weiyan's expression immediately darkened, and he looked at the person who had come.

At that moment, the newcomer was seen wearing a black dragon robe and a net-covered headdress.

Beneath the dark face, it was impossible to discern the other person's expression.

"Your Majesty!"

Upon seeing the man appear, the corpse general beside him immediately bowed respectfully, completely ignoring Fang Weiyan in front of him.

It's clear how important this man is to the other person.

Fang Weiyan's heart sank at that moment. Your Majesty?

The King of the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings?

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan felt a sudden tightness in his chest.

Is there still a king in this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings?

So, all the guys attacking the passage were ordered by this guy?

Upon realizing this, Fang Weiyan immediately gave the king of this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings a cold look.

Fang Weiyan observed very carefully. Although the other party had blocked his sword, a crack had still appeared on the other party's palm.

It was just a tiny crack, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

It's clear that the previous sword strike broke through the defense, but not completely.

Land of Ten Thousand Witherings is immortal, then it's quite obvious that this so-called king must also be an immortal being.

Moreover, the opponent's strength is somewhat unfathomable.

He and Weiwei might not be a match for each other.

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan glanced at Weiwei beside him.

At this moment, Weiwei also glanced at Fang Weiyan. The simplicity in her eyes said it all: this guy is not easy to deal with!

I was careless.

Fang Weiyan felt a bit bad, but he couldn't care less about that at the moment.

You must overwhelm your opponent with your presence.

"You, the Human Sovereign of Land of Eternal Radiance, are quite interesting."

At this moment, the Corpse Sovereign looked at Fang Weiyan, then at the Son of Heaven Sword in Fang Weiyan's hand, and couldn't help but speak.

"I've seen other Human Sovereign before, but none of them wielded your sickly sword."

He could sense that the sword in the other person's hand was extraordinary.

That was just a casual sword strike, yet it had already broken through his defenses. Although it didn't inflict much damage, it definitely did break through his defenses.

This surprised him somewhat.

He had just made his move and could sense that the opponent's sword strike could kill the Corpse General instantly.

Although the corpse general is immortal and indestructible, killing his own subordinate right in front of him is undoubtedly a slap in the face.

As the emperor of this region, he naturally could not tolerate this, which is why he took action.

Fang Weiyan looked at the other person and echoed, "You are no ordinary person either. I never expected that there would be an emperor in this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings. No one has ever mentioned it before."

"Is an emperor like you no different from Human Sovereign?"

Fang Weiyan stared intently at the other party, the Emperor of the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, immortal and indestructible.

That's a bit too terrifying; his subordinates are an undead legion.

If he existed in the form of Human Sovereign, and the opponent's undead army were converted into national power, wouldn't it be off the charts?

Could the opponent become a top-tier existence among Human Sovereign in no time?

Fang Weiyan didn't quite understand, but this time he also felt that the problem was becoming somewhat tricky.

Upon hearing this, the Corpse Sovereign did not intend to reply. This matter was confidential, and he had kept it a secret for so many years. Naturally, he would not reveal it just because of a single sentence from the other party.

Once he does that, the other party will go back and discuss how to deal with him.

After all, he had kept it hidden for so long.

"I am the emperor of this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings. Have you all trespassed here to die?"

Fang Weiyan couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this, "I am also the emperor of the Jiang Kingdom. You've been sending your men to attack Jiang Kingdom continuously, are you planning to have your army die at the hands of my soldiers?"

"Although your soldiers seem immortal, I believe this is not absolute. There must be a way to completely annihilate you."

Fang Weiyan stared at the other person, feeling that the other person wasn't truly immortal.

If that's really the case, why would the other party lie low for so long?

Fang Weiyan could sense that the opponent was extremely powerful.

With such formidable strength, if one were truly immortal, wouldn't they be unstoppable?

Since I won't die anyway, I can just go and fight Empress Wanxi and the others.

Even if these Human Sovereign were incredibly powerful, they couldn't withstand his life-for-life fighting style.

In the end, the other side will definitely win.

This Land of Ten Thousand Witherings has existed for so long, yet the other party has never appeared before. What else could it be but a sign of their apprehension?

"You guessed one thing right, but unfortunately it's too late."

This time, the Corpse Sovereign did not completely deny it; upon hearing this, he simply made a casual remark.

His tone was completely nonchalant, as if he wasn't worried at all about what Fang Weiyan would do if he guessed it.

The Yin Qi in the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings is now almost filling the Land of Eternal Radiance. With such dense Yin Qi protecting them, they will be able to achieve immortality when they arrive in the Land of Eternal Radiance. What is there to fear?

The reason I haven't said it outright yet is because it would be too foolish to say it directly.

There is nothing more foolish than so casually revealing one's weaknesses to others.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan accomplished something that made them no longer so fearful, and thus their subordinates were charging into battle with such ferocity?

Upon realizing this, Fang Weiyan's expression changed.

He immediately thought of something: the matter he had investigated before.

I went to ask the Dragon King, and he said that after the passage opened, the Yin Qi between heaven and earth became increasingly dense.

Could it be that this is what relates to the other party's immortality?

Fang Weiyan felt that he might have guessed the real reason.

However, Fang Weiyan did not dare to say it directly at this moment.

The other party was still holding back their words, and if he revealed his guess, it would be fine if he was wrong.

If this guess is correct, there's no guarantee the other party won't consider killing them to silence them.

Meeting the Emperor in the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings was completely unexpected for Fang Weiyan. He had no idea of Fang Weiyan Emperor's true strength and didn't want to take any risks.

After a moment's thought, Fang Weiyan gave up on revealing his guess.

"It seems we're bound to clash sooner or later."

Fang Weiyan stared intently at his opponent, clearly intending to engage in combat immediately.

The Corpse Sovereign merely smiled coldly upon hearing this, "Although I am immortal, there is no need for me to fight you to the death. Once my great cause is accomplished, I will come to fight you."

After saying this, the Corpse Sovereign turned and retreated with his subordinates.

This scene left Fang Weiyan utterly astonished. What was wrong with this guy?

Have we become this cautious?

How cowardly must an immortal being be to not dare to make a move at this critical juncture?

Could it be that the other party felt they weren't 100% certain of victory, which is why they hadn't decided to make a move?

If you're really going to take action, you need to be 100% certain.

Fang Weiyan felt a strange sensation upon realizing this.

To be honest, the Corpse Sovereign in this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings somewhat overturned his understanding of the world.

Watching the other person retreat, Fang Weiyan hesitated for a moment but did not choose to chase after them.

He wasn't confident he could take down his opponent, and given his current isolated position, engaging in a direct confrontation would be unwise.

With that thought in mind, Fang Weiyan and Weiwei then left as well.

It took them a while to get back to the passageway.

Upon returning, Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness we didn't fight them. This Corpse Sovereign is immortal and its strength is unfathomable. If we had fought, we probably would have been left there."

Weiwei's face was full of relief. Just now, she had even planned to do everything in her power to escort Fang Weiyan away.

She can die over there, but Fang Weiyan absolutely cannot.

Fang Weiyan's fate is tied to the future of her Mountain Spirit Clan.

Fortunately, this didn't happen.

Fang Weiyan was about to say something when Tao Lingluo was in the distance, noticed that something seemed wrong and immediately flew over.

"What kind of Corpse Sovereign? Is he powerful? Should I take some lightning-struck peach wood and whip him?"

As Tao Lingluo spoke, she waved the lightning-struck peach wood in her hand.

As the peach wood was swung, the crackling lightning above seemed to pierce through the surrounding air.

Seeing Tao Lingluo's enthusiastic expression, Fang Weiyan glanced at her helplessly, "That guy is very powerful. I'm afraid what you're holding won't be a threat to him."

Realizing that his opponent had withstood a blow from his Son of Heaven Sword with just a single hand, Fang Weiyan's expression darkened.

To be honest, this guy is really terrifying.

He embodied the current national strength of the Jiang Kingdom, and even with the full power of the Jiang Kingdom, they still couldn't subdue the opponent.

It's easy to imagine just how terrifying this guy is.

Tao Lingluo was also taken aback upon hearing this, her face full of doubt, "Anyone this powerful in the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings?"

She's been here for a while now, and I've never run into her before.

"Yes, there is a Corpse Sovereign. I don't know if it looks like the Human Sovereign Human Sovereign. If it does, that would be a huge problem, like an undead army or something."

Fang Weiyan felt a great headache coming on when he thought about this.

Upon hearing this, Tao Lingluo's expression changed drastically, and she immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

"The Human Sovereign in the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, is he immortal and indestructible?"

Fang Weiyan nodded upon hearing this, but then noticed that Tao Lingluo's expression had suddenly changed.

She thought back to her boastful words, how she even thought she could chop the other person with the peach wood in her hand—she was simply asking for trouble!

She was almost certain that if she actually did that, she would definitely die.

"Your Majesty, is there any progress regarding their plans? Having remained hidden for so long, they must be plotting something very deep."

Only now do they realize that there is a so-called Corpse Sovereign inside.

No matter how you look at it, the other party is clearly plotting something.

Fang Weiyan nodded. "I think the other side has probably been plotting to channel all the Yin Qi into the Land of Eternal Radiance."

Land of Eternal Radiance, which is what they used to call it.

This must be the world where Fang Weiyan is.

"Yin Qi?"

Weiwei was unaware of this and was taken aback upon hearing it.

Upon seeing this, Fang Weiyan immediately recounted his previous investigation to the other party.

After saying that, Fang Weiyan continued.

"So this is their goal. Although we don't know what effect this Yin Qi can have, it probably won't do us any good."

Fang Weiyan paused, wondering if this concerned whether the other party could achieve immortality.

However, this was just his guess, and Fang Weiyan didn't say it aloud.

To be more specific, we need to go back and verify more information before we can confirm it.

"Hold this position firmly, and report any unforeseen circumstances in advance."

Thinking of this, Fang Weiyan immediately left a message for Tao Lingluo and the others, and then hurriedly left.

A moment later, Fang Weiyan returned to the palace and quickly summoned the Judge Wen from the Underworld Administration to share the information he had learned with the other Human Sovereign.

In addition, Fang Weiyan also wanted to know which Human Sovereign's passage had been breached.

In the past, has there ever been an incident where the passage was breached, and the Yin God that invaded the Land of Eternal Radiance are still immortal and indestructible?

This point is particularly important, if the Yin God that invaded Land of Eternal Radiance were not immortal.

This would confirm Fang Weiyan's suspicions.

The opponent's immortality is not true immortality; it is conditional.

Once Fang Weiyan finished writing all the letters, he immediately had Judge Wen send them away, making sure to get a reply from the other party.
