Chapter 178

Those who stubbornly resisted were eventually annihilated.

Of course, Gu Yinger did not go on a total killing spree.

For those who had been forced to side with the Prince of Divine Martial, she showed leniency; not only did she not kill them, but she even allowed them to continue serving the imperial court.

This also put some people at ease.

The Night Wind Kingdom quickly got back on track.

Only after everything was over did Gu Yinger come to Luo Tian's side once again.

"Young Master Luo Tian, if it weren't for your intervention this time, my Night Wind imperial family would truly have been doomed! This young woman, on behalf of the ancestors of the Gu imperial clan, bows in gratitude to Young Master Luo Tian!"

After speaking, she knelt directly on both knees and kowtowed in salute.

Luo Tian glanced at her and said, "Your Highness, forget about the thanks. After all, I didn't do this mainly for you. However, there are some things you seem to need to explain, right?"

Gu Yinger blushed and said, "I'm sorry, Young Master Luo Tian. Because I was worried you wouldn't be willing to help, I concealed the news about my father."

"Just as I said at the Prince of Divine Martial's manor, my father is indeed not in the capital right now! Several years ago, in order to save the Prince of Divine Martial, he entered the False Imperial Mausoleum."

Luo Tian was stunned and said, "False Imperial Mausoleum?"

Gu Yinger nodded and said, "That's right. We have always told the outside world that it is the imperial mausoleum of our Gu clan. But not a single person of our Gu clan is buried there. The reason we say that is to prevent people from approaching it at will."

"Oh? Why?" Luo Tian became curious.

Gu Yinger took a deep breath and said, "Because several fierce demons are sealed there!"

"Fierce demons?" Luo Tian looked at her.

Gu Yinger nodded and said, "This is a long story! About a thousand years ago, there were three extremely powerful fierce demons who ravaged the world and slaughtered countless living beings. Several surrounding kingdoms organized a large number of experts to surround and kill them, but in the end, not only did they all fail, but those who participated in the siege were either killed or injured!"

"In the end, even the Heavenly Sun Imperial Kingdom, an overlord of the Fenglin Continent, sent four great experts, but the result... was still failure."

Luo Tian asked in surprise, "That strong? What realm are these fierce demons in?"

Gu Yinger shook her head and said, "I don't know that either. But according to the records in my family's ancient books, what made those three fierce demons truly powerful was not their combat strength, but the fact that they simply could not be killed!"

"Cannot be killed? Why?" Luo Tian was surprised.

Gu Yinger said, "I don't know either. That's just what the ancient books record. Back then, there were experts who suppressed these three guys in terms of power! But in the end, they were all counter-killed by them!"

"So later, the sages thought of a method. When these three fierce demons were preparing to slaughter the capital of our Night Wind Kingdom, they set an ambush to seal them in a place of extreme yin, and then used the Phoenix True Fire as the eye of the array to form a posture of yin and yang embracing, sealing them completely. To prevent outsiders from approaching that place, we built a false imperial mausoleum to enclose the entire sealed area. Our Gu clan, because we can manipulate the Phoenix True Fire, also became the guardians of the seal."

After listening, Luo Tian nodded and said, "Then what did your emperor father go to such a place for?"

Gu Yinger smiled bitterly and said, "Because that place of extreme yin contains the Phoenix True Fire, it formed a special location of supreme yin and supreme yang! In such an environment, a special substance is produced: Chaotic Spiritual Breath. This item can not only assist people in cultivation, but most importantly, it has the miraculous effect of healing wounds and detoxifying poisons."

"My father was deceived by the Prince of Divine Martial and entered the False Imperial Mausoleum to retrieve some Chaotic Spiritual Breath, but he ended up being trapped inside."

After finishing, Gu Yinger fell silent.

However, while she was silent, Luo Tian on the other side stood up abruptly.

"Wait a minute! What did you say was inside that False Imperial Mausoleum?" Luo Tian asked excitedly.

"Ah... Chaotic Spiritual Breath. What's wrong? Has Young Master heard of it?" Gu Yinger asked.

Luo Tian slapped his thigh and said, "My god, it really is a case of 'all that searching and here it is'! I was worried about where to find it, and who would have thought you'd have it here? Come, where is that False Imperial Mausoleum? Take me there!"

Chaotic Spiritual Breath was one of the materials Luo Tian needed to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.

However, the Luo family had never even heard of it.

Luo Tian didn't know how to go about searching for it.

As it turned out, he had found the information right here. ===== CHAPTER 180 =====
