Chapter 609
The lessons from the Demon Race of North Province are still fresh in memory; the Tianlong Holy Land now does not dare to relax its vigilance against the Dao Yi Sect at all.
After all, this group of Human Race is really weird; they have never seen such a way of hunting demon beasts.
However, facing this demon emperor's worry, the other demon emperors showed no intention of retreating at all.
"Just a mere Dongzhou Sect, and you're scared like this?"
"But the Western Province Demon Race............."
"Heh, can the Western Province Demon Race compare to my Tianlong Holy Land? Don't boost others' ambition and destroy your own prestige; my Tianlong Holy Land is not the Western Province Demon Race."
"Still wanting to say something more, but as a huge sound came from the sky, an extremely terrifying pressure descended from the heavens, and the five demon emperors of the Tianlong Holy Land immediately turned their gazes toward the horizon."
"The Emperor's Tomb has opened, and the surrounding restrictions have disappeared."
"And as the restrictions disappeared, the scenery within, seen through the spatial rift, became increasingly clear before everyone's eyes."
"One high mountain after another, the sky filled with dark clouds, countless thunderbolts continuously striking, scorching the mountain peaks to a charred black."
"And behind these black mountains, people could still see stretches of continuous buildings."
"This is the small world constructed by the Great Emperor."
"However, what the five demon emperors of the Tianlong Holy Land care about is not these, but from this aura they judge that this is clearly a tomb left by a demon emperor."
Demon Emperor's Tomb.............
In an instant, the five demon kings all changed their expressions.
If it were other great emperors, such as the Human Race's Sacred Emperor or the Evil Spirits' Ghost Emperor, they might truly hesitate about whether to enter.
After all, the legacies left by the Sacred Emperor and the Ghost Emperor are not necessarily suitable for these demon beasts.
At most, they would just be fighting over some treasures, pills and such.
But a tomb left by a demon emperor, for a demon race holy land like the Tianlong Holy Land, carries a completely different meaning.
Immediately, the other four demon kings, without the slightest hesitation, spoke up directly.
"We absolutely cannot abandon this emperor's tomb."
"Not bad."
Even that demon king who had just spoken up, worrying about the Dao Yi Sect, is now silent, obviously acquiescing.
As for the Undying Holy Land and the Cloud Lotus Holy Land over here, they wore looks of regret.
"How could it be a demon emperor's tomb?"
"A demon race great emperor?"
Only these Three Holy Lands have come to Dongzhou; the other holy lands, for various reasons, did not come in person.
Faced with a demon emperor's tomb, the enthusiasm of the Cloud Lotus Holy Land and the Undying Holy Land quickly halved, but since they came, they will definitely go in to give it a try.
Even if they manage to snag some treasure, that's still a gain.
"Qi Zongzhu, shall we act together?"
Li Zhengqing took the initiative to find Qi Xiong, indicating they could act together, after all, the Cloud Lotus Holy Land has experience exploring emperor tombs.
However, after glancing at the proud disciples of the Cloud Lotus Holy Land not far away, Qi Xiong shook his head and refused.
"Thank you, Brother Li, but we still want to act alone."
Besides Li Zhengqing, Wang Xiao, Xiao Han yi three people, the other Great Saints and disciples who came from the Cloud Lotus Holy Land all had an air of superiority.
In response, the Dao Yi Sect naturally wouldn't put on a warm face to a cold backside, and they didn't even call the Cloud Lotus Holy Land people for a meal.
Only Li Zhengqing and his three companions will return.
Hearing Qi Xiong's answer, Li Zhengqing didn't find it strange either, and nodded.
"Alright, but if you need anything, you can also contact me."
"Certainly."
Having refused Li Zhengqing's invitation, Qi Xiong gathered all the members of the Dao Yi Sect.
Actually, not many disciples came; they were all Inner Disciples of the Dao Yi Sect, plus a number of Elders who had broken through the Shèngjìng, Peak Masters, as well as Qi Xiong, Yu Mo, and others.
For a place like the emperor's tomb, ordinary disciples going there would have little significance; they'd likely become cannon fodder straight away.
At the very least, one needs to have the cultivation of the Heavenly Human Realm.
This is also what Li Zhengqing had told Qi Xiong and them before.
"You can stay on the starship."
Qi Xiong looked at Zhao Zhengping, Xu Jie and the other Inner Disciples, as well as Ye Zhangqing, and said.
However, upon hearing this, everyone directly shook their heads and refused, indicating they wanted to go together.
Seeing everyone's determined gaze, Qi Xiong fell silent for a moment, said nothing more, nodded and agreed.
"Then let's set off."
The Dao Yi Sect, the Undying Holy Land, the Cloud Lotus Holy Land, and the Tianlong Holy Land—these four were the first to enter the emperor's tomb.
After they entered, the various other sects then entered the emperor's tomb one after another.
The entrance to the emperor's tomb was like a teleportation formation, or more accurately speaking, it should be a spatial channel.
After a bout of world-spinning dizziness, the Dao Yi Sect members successfully entered the emperor's tomb.
Looking around, they discovered that the people seemed to have gotten separated.
Beside Ye Zhangqing were only Hong Zun, Qing Shi, Xu Jie, Liu Shuang, Lu Youyou, and Wang Yao; as for the others, they had vanished without a trace.
"They must have been forcibly separated by the spatial channel at the entrance."
Hong Zun surveyed the surroundings, then said lightly, "This is hardly surprising; Li Zhengqing also mentioned this."
Generally speaking, the entrance to the emperor's tomb is spatially chaotic; those who enter cannot necessarily be guaranteed to stay together.
Afterwards, they also tried using the Xiǎnyǐng zhèn pán and the Chuānyīn fú, but found they could not be used; it seems the space here does not allow it.
"Never mind, first let's look around; we'll surely find Senior Brother and the others eventually."
Hong Zun spoke calmly, then began to survey the surroundings.
No grass grew; the land was scorched black, the sky above covered with dark clouds, and lightning filled the heavens.
From time to time, a thick bolt of lightning would strike down, slamming hard into the ground.
These thunderbolts are powerful; one still needs to be careful when moving.
"This should just be the outer area of the Emperor's Tomb."
Xu Jie spoke up, saying that earlier, after passing through the spatial rift, everyone had seen deep inside the Emperor's Tomb a continuous complex of buildings, and the weather there was fine, with green mountains and clear waters, completely opposite to this place.
"That's right; if we want to find treasures, we probably need to go deeper."
Hong Zun nodded.
Just as they were talking, several figures suddenly appeared not far ahead.
They were other people; upon taking a closer look, everyone quickly broke into a smile.
They turned out to be disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, and the leader was even a True Dragon Disciple.
"Wow, disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land."
"Is this a welcome gift right at the start?"
"Again, it's the True Dragon Clan, keekee..."
Their smiles gradually turned lewd—pah—and then gradually burst open.
While those few Heavenly Dragon Holy Land disciples had not yet come to their senses, they heard a series of cold laughs from beside them.
Turning their heads in confusion, the next second they froze on the spot, as if hit by a paralysis spell.
「Dao........... Dao Yi Sect............. 」
Faced with the continually approaching Hong Zun, Xu Jie and the others, upon seeing their eyes glow red, these Heavenly Dragon Holy Land disciples were instantly completely numb.
"Damn it, why did we run into the Dao Yi Sect as soon as we entered?"
"This damned Emperor's Tomb, is it deliberately playing with them? It could be anyone, why did it have to be the Dao Yi Sect?"
