Chapter 524: The Great Emperor is merely a pooper-scooper

"What is this thing, why is the taste so peculiar?"

After Black Emperor finished the ham sausage, he felt as if his dog life had reached its peak, with an aftertaste that lingered endlessly.

"Ham sausage? What, still want to eat? Exchange it with a Great Emperor scripture."

Xu Que said, while two more bags of ham sausage appeared in his hand.

"..." Ye Fan.

"Is this thing really that delicious? And how could this dog possibly have a Great Emperor scripture?" Duan De asked curiously.

Xu Que took one out for Duan De and said:

"Unscrupulous Taoist, don't you know that Wushi Dadi kept a dog in his later years? This is Wushi Dadi's mausoleum, and this black dog was sealed within the divine source."

As an archaeology expert, Duan De had naturally heard this rumor, and his eyes brightened slightly as he said:

"Could this dog be Wushi Dadi's pet?"

"What pet, this dog is the Black Emperor, the emperor among demons. Besides, Wushi was merely a pooper-scooper; I hope you can distinguish who is the boss." Black Emperor immediately retorted.

Seeing this scene, Duan De doubted life even more; this dog was truly too shameless.

Besides, being a dog for a Great Emperor was something that brought honor to one's ancestors, not to mention that Black Emperor was a dog to begin with.

"Little Hei Hei, telling tall tales is not good, oh." Nannan said.

If it were anyone else, Black Emperor would have already bitten them.

But facing Nannan, he truly had no temper at all, only saying: "No Great Emperor scripture, do you want the Demon Emperor scripture?"

"Which Demon Emperor's?" Duan De asked hurriedly.

"The one I created myself." Black Emperor said.

"..., damn, hell. I, the Taoist master, am actually talking about this with a dog." Duan De complained.

Xu Que didn't mind and said: "Black Emperor, I know you don't have it, but you are Wushi Dadi's pet; you must be familiar with the situation in Purple Mountain and know where Wushi Dadi put the Great Emperor scripture. Take us there."

Black Emperor glanced sideways at Xu Que and said proudly:

"You want to see the Wushi Scripture too? Why don't you go take a piss and see if you're worthy.

The Great Emperor scripture, is that something an ordinary person can see? Can you withstand the pressure of the Great Emperor?"

"Two more bags of ham." Xu Que said calmly.

Black Emperor's eyes immediately shone with gold, his tone changed, and he said: "Ahem, this emperor admits that what I said just now was too decisive. Young man, I see your bones are extraordinary, you must be a heaven-gifted talent, so actually, it's not impossible. This emperor can indeed take you there."

"Truly no integrity at all." Duan De said with extreme grief.

Black Emperor didn't care what Duan De thought; in fact, he was certain that Xu Que couldn't open the Wushi Scripture, let alone read it.

That is a Great Emperor scripture; how could a few noobs in front of him possibly obtain it?

"Xu Ergou, you really know how to scheme. But this dog is even craftier than you; you can't possibly not know that there is a Great Emperor's imprint on the Wushi Scripture, and ordinary people can't touch it at all." Ye Fan said.

"Old Ye, I'm just trying it out." Xu Que said.

"The Wushi Scripture is not urgent; the primary task now is to save the God King Jiang Taixu. It would be bad if the God King 'dog-dies' early because of our anomaly." Ye Fan said.

"I'll listen to you." Xu Que said, as he also wanted to see this legendary white-clothed God King.

"Black Emperor, do you know the whereabouts of Jiang Taixu?" Ye Fan asked.

"I know a little, but I advise you not to waste your effort; there is a ninety-nine percent chance he is dead." Black Emperor said.

"Add one more bag, take us there." Xu Que said.

"Fine." Black Emperor proudly raised his dog head and walked out of the secret chamber.

The group hurriedly followed; with Black Emperor leading the way, they naturally wouldn't trigger the traps in the Great Emperor's tomb.

And with Nannan there, all evil spirits retreated.

Walking in the tunnels of Purple Mountain, there were many passageways, intricate and complex, worthy of being called nine twists and eighteen turns.

If one didn't understand geomancy, taking one wrong step would mean being lost forever, or even dying on the spot.

"Wushi Dadi is a Great Emperor of the Human Race after all; although the mausoleum has heavy yin energy, it's understandable. But why is there so much murderous intent in the mausoleum?" Duan De asked.

"Tch, you don't even know this. Then I have to talk about the origin of Purple Mountain. Over a hundred thousand years ago, Purple Mountain was a land of demons and monsters, and it was also the dojo of Bushi Tianhuang. Later, the master became an Emperor and occupied Purple Mountain, and he forcibly modified the terrain of Purple Mountain, turning it into a Great Emperor's mausoleum.

Beneath Purple Mountain, many demons and monsters of the Bushi Tianhuang lineage are still trapped to this day.

But after so much time has passed, these existences should be almost dead by now." Black Emperor said.

"So that's how it is, there's such a secret. As expected of Wushi Dadi, he actually changed the great trend of Purple Mountain against the heavens; only a Great Emperor could achieve such a means of changing the world."

Duan De showed an expression of admiration; this was from the heart, a respect for the Great Emperor.

Ye Fan and Xu Que didn't say anything after hearing this.

They had both read the script and naturally knew what the truth was.

Furthermore, the current Wushi and Bushi Tianhuang were not dead.

Not only that, Wushi had also cultivated the Red Dust Immortal Dao Fruit and was one against two on the path to immortality, which could be described as peerless and incredibly awesome.

Not long after, Black Emperor stopped, and before them was another secret chamber, in which sat a withered figure on the verge of death.

"If this emperor hasn't calculated wrong, this guy came in four thousand years ago." Black Emperor said.

At this time, Ye Fan was about ten zhang away from the withered figure in the secret chamber.

"There is still breath, although weak, I can feel it." Ye Fan said excitedly.

"No different from being dead, because he is a God Body at Great Completion and has the God King's origin protecting his body, but by now he is at the end of his rope and cannot possibly respond to you." Black Emperor said.

"This is the God King Jiang Taixu!" Xu Que looked at the figure before him, his face showing shock and an indescribable sigh.

No matter how peerless you are, under the ruthless blade of time, you will eventually be cut clean away.

The Jiang Taixu before them was no longer human-like; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a skeleton, with skin that had long lost its flesh clinging to the bones, looking like a mummy that had been sleeping for ten thousand years.

"Sigh, the God King Jiang Taixu, who once traversed the Eastern Wasteland for five thousand years and was number one in combat, who would have thought he would fall in this place." Duan De said.

Ye Fan was about to step forward to save Jiang Taixu, but was stopped by Black Emperor.

Black Emperor said solemnly: "If you want to die, this Emperor won't stop you."

"Although we appear to be only ten zhang away from Jiang Taixu, the Great Emperor Killing Array contained within means we are actually millions of miles apart; one wrong step and you will be doomed beyond redemption."

"Besides, why do you think Jiang Taixu has stayed in this place all this time without leaving?"

"It must be that he has entered a Great Emperor maze array; no matter how one walks, they will always return to the starting point," Duan De said.

Maze arrays are very common; they just make people lose their sense of direction, much like the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, and they are also very easy to break, or even break directly with brute force.

But if it was set up by a Great Emperor, then it is different.

Never mind Jiang Taixu, even a Quasi-Emperor would become a turtle in a jar if they came here.

"It's about the same as a ghost wall," Xu Que said.

"Senior, can you hear us?" Ye Fan called out, feeling anxious for some unknown reason.

Such a figure should not perish here.

"Who... is... it..."

After Ye Fan had called out for a long time, a weak voice came from the withered figure before his eyes.
