The Yin Aspect of the Two Principles

Despite it being just a fleeting glance, His Majesty still clearly saw the gray figure.

Moreover, he had fought against Emperor Jing in his previous manifested form and was extremely familiar with the latter's ghostly and elusive attack methods.

" In the Southern Jambudvipa Continent, there is a school of thought called the Corpse Jiao, which possesses various bizarre techniques related to corpses and the dead. Could it be that you used the Corpse Jiao technique before you died?"

His Highness was somewhat displeased that his kidneys had been poked twice for no reason.

But he was merely annoyed. This gray figure possessed the ghostly presence of Emperor Jing, but also perpetuated the biggest problem Emperor Jing had when he struck.

The opponent's offensive power was far inferior to His Majesty's defense.

The esteemed one felt only pain, not anything fatal.

"Emperor Xiu Corpse Jiao, well, I'll just consider you multi-talented. Anyway, there are indeed some things about humans that I find hard to understand!"

His Majesty finds it hard to understand how Emperor Jing could simultaneously commit stabbing and cultivate the art of Corpse Jiao, and it is even more rare for an emperor to cultivate the art of Corpse Jiao.

He took two sword blows, but he was not afraid of the third one that might come.

After a cursory glance at Emperor Jing's imperial coffin, His Majesty felt there was nothing of interest within.

He reached out and pushed the imperial coffin shut, then took the Heaven-Shaking Arrow and walked out of the mausoleum.

Look how anxious you are!

"You, ruler and subject, will live happily ever after in the underworld!"

"I only came to collect this Heaven-Shaking Arrow; I didn't lift the lid off your coffin!"

"You lifted that coffin lid yourself!"

"So annoying, all he does is poke, poke, poke!"

Your Majesty must admit that Emperor Jing had a superior advantage in terms of concealment and speed, both before and after his death.

The opponent has now transformed into an extremely bizarre form, and the Venerable One has tried to grab it several times but has failed.

After he left the Weiyang Palace mausoleum, the terracotta figurines of Grand Commandant Zhou Taiwei, Cheng Bushi, and Li Guang began to entangle him. Even with Emperor Jing's bizarre attacks, these three terracotta figurines were moved away from their original location.

With the Heaven-Shaking Arrow in hand, it was difficult for His Majesty to escape in flames. If he wanted to An Ran leave the area of terracotta figurines, terracotta pigs, and terracotta figures in Yang Mausoleum, he would really have to solve some problems.

Moreover, his body was already severely damaged; not only was his physical body more than half injured, but the battle had also depleted ninety percent of his Law Power.

In any case, he faced various troubles when entering the mausoleum, as well as the onslaught of the Empress Dowager, Li Guang, and the nine dragon souls. Even with the home-field advantage, the Venerable One was not actually present in his true form.

With all these factors combined, His Majesty is now entangled in a predicament that makes it difficult for him to pass through the mausoleum in a relatively normal state.

Having been struck by the sword of the Grand Commandant Zhou terracotta warrior, he inevitably fled towards another palace.

"It's a pity I didn't ask that kid more about the other palace. The two palaces have similar structures, which fits the tomb structure of an emperor and empress. There should also be four or five Spirit Jade in the other palace, right?"

Your Majesty's physical body was constructed from the lightning-struck wood of the great demon Xiangliu in the Heavenly Court, who failed in his tribulation. This type of tree demon differs from normal humans and demons in its feeding and body repair methods.

For example, the Venerable One can infuse the Spirit Jade Essence to heal wounds through powerful growth stimulation, and he can also restore his Law Power by absorbing Spiritual Qi in a short time after breaking the Spirit Jade within the demon's body.

Doing too many of these forced restorations can have serious consequences, but compared to the usefulness of this physical body, His Majesty thinks the Heaven-Shaking Arrow is much better.

Moreover, his withered left hand was struck by a sword and cleanly sliced off by the terracotta figurine of Grand Commandant Zhou, leaving only his right hand. This physical body was no longer as useful as before.

He was currently unable to completely destroy the Heaven-Shaking Arrow, and was constantly entangled by the many dead creatures. To make matters worse, his own body was not in good condition, so the Venerable One could only seek to forcibly restore his body.

He sprinted toward Palace of Peace and Happiness, enduring the occasional stabs from the gray figure and the occasional impacts from the Sword Qi released by the Grand Commandant Zhou terracotta figurine.

But as long as he runs, it becomes much more difficult for others to chase and kill him.

When His Majesty rushed into the Palace of Peace and Happiness mausoleum, he had already shaken off Grand Commandant Zhou, leaving only his gray figure occasionally poking and striking.

"The palaces do indeed have similar designs. Where's Spirit Jade?"

Upon entering the Palace of Peace and Happiness mausoleum, His Majesty couldn't help but search for the presence of the Spirit Jade.

He reached out and pinched the paper, casting a treasure-hunting spell to search for the source. He realized that the Spirit Jade beneath the imperial coffin in this palace was not displayed in the open, but was likely hidden under the blue bricks of the floor.

This allowed the Venerable One to proceed step by step, constantly determining the precise location by relying on the treasure-hunting technique.

After a while, the Venerable One looked at a floor tile.

The mausoleum was exquisitely designed, and the Spirit Jade was hidden very well, but it could not escape the tracking of Technique Method in the end.

Especially since there was a bluestone placed on top of the floor tile, the target was obviously too obvious.

The Venerable One kicked aside the bluestone and reached down to grab the floor tiles below.

He overturned the floor tiles and discovered that there was indeed Heaven and Earth else underneath.

Bundles of half-ounce coins were piled up under the floor tiles, exuding a faint, Spiritual Qi aura.

"Screw you!"

As the Venerable One sullenly chose to continue taking the beating, he slapped the half-ounce coin with his right hand, which was gripping the Heaven-Shaking Arrow.

When he pulled out bundles and bundles of half-ounce coins, the Venerable One also saw the Spirit Jade piled up under the coins.

Including the Spirit Jade that Zhang Xuezhou took, Emperor Jing's mausoleum contained five Spirit Jade, while here there are four.

"There seem to be traces of an array... whatever!"

Given the choice between restoring his body and triggering a potential formation, His Excellency would clearly choose the former.

After all, his Divine Sense was strong and his body was special, so he was not afraid of ordinary formations. With the four Spirit Jade in his palm, he could activate Spirit Jade to resist four conventional fatal injuries, and he could withstand any unexpected events.

His right hand transformed into the shape of a tree, and he reached out and grabbed downwards, obtaining all four Spirit Jade at once.

The comforting sensation from the Spiritual Qi instantly spread throughout the Venerable One's entire body.

"Hey!"

He shouted, and a ball of flame Shengteng from his wooden palm.

As long as he has enough Law Power, he obviously won't be beaten indefinitely. Flame is a powerful weapon against dark and gloomy things. As long as the opponent is not made of ceramic, the Venerable One believes that he can burn something.

He forcefully absorbed the Spiritual Qi contained within the Spirit Jade, causing the flames to surge and intensify.

A foul stench wafted over, and His Majesty couldn't help but smile faintly.

"Finally, it's your turn to get burned!"

The flames in his hand surged, and he felt the stench growing stronger as the flames burned, even causing his eyelids to blink repeatedly and a feeling of dizziness to wash over him.

"The 'Corpse Jiao' technique is too awful... something's not right!"

Just a few seconds later, the Venerable One realized that even if his flames burned an old zombie that had accumulated for thousands of years, it would not produce such a stench.

When his gaze swept over the opened floor tile, he sensed a foul stench emanating from beneath it.

"When I fought that old woman, her soul also stank so foully... It's Sha Qi, how can there be so much of it? Could this be a mass grave of ten thousand corpses? Oh no!"

The Sha Qi had a smell but no color. In the few seconds that the Venerable One misjudged, countless malevolent Sha Qi filled this mausoleum.

As he watched the surging Sha Qi and shoved the bluestone back into place, he felt his soul was already unbearably foul, making it difficult to continue relying on this Law Treasure body.

A ray of light fled in panic, and the Venerable One's right hand, which had been gripping the Heaven-Shaking Arrow, slumped down. Then, a gray humanoid figure reached out and grabbed wildly, bumping and stumbling around as if it had lost its mind.

A moment later, the gray humanoid object shrank rapidly as if deflated, leaving only a human skin engraved with various patterns.

A bright green pearl rolled out from the human skin.

Several roars, like howls, echoed outside the Palace of Peace and Happiness mausoleum, but quickly subsided.
