Chapter 497: Seeing Forbidden Gu Again
Long Xuan didn't say much, standing far away from the coffin, looking vigilantly.
"Hmph! What a coward."
Lan Yan looked at him disdainfully and finally stopped wasting time. He waved his right hand gently, and the coffin lid seemed to be pulled by a giant force, flying high into the air.
The next moment, before the three of them could check what was in the coffin, an old man's soul flew out of the coffin and cursed: "Damn it, who dares to dig my tomb? Didn't I tell you it would affect nine clans? You still dare to dig!"
The suddenly appearing old man's soul undoubtedly startled the three of them. Even the bold Lan Yan couldn't help but take two steps back, his face faintly turning pale.
"Did Emperor Cangyue really fake a corpse?" This was the first thought that arose in Long Xuan's heart at this time, and a look of fear immediately appeared on his face.
However, he quickly noticed that something was wrong, because this soul had the aura of a peak Gu King and could absolutely not be Emperor Cangyue.
No matter who this soul body was, as long as he was at the Gu King level, then there would almost be no danger to him.
A Gu King without a physical body could never beat a Gu King with a physical body. The combat power of this soul body was probably not even comparable to Lan Yan.
It was precisely because he noticed that this soul body was very weak that Long Xuan felt relieved and didn't run away at the first opportunity.
Obviously, he was not the only one who noticed the situation of this soul body. Lan Yan and Di Xin both quickly saw the reality of this soul. Seeing that it was only a remnant soul at the Gu King level, they couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief in their hearts.
Di Xin spoke first: "He is too weak; he absolutely cannot be Emperor Cangyue."
"If I'm not mistaken, this person found the Cangyue Imperial Tomb a long time ago, but he was also a dying person who urgently needed to build a tomb. Seeing that there was a huge imperial tomb here, he threw out Emperor Cangyue's bones and ran into the coffin himself to occupy the magpie's nest."
Hearing this, Long Xuan's expression became strange. He couldn't build a too luxurious tomb himself, so he snatched someone else's tomb to occupy the magpie's nest. Does such a person exist in this world? However, he quickly frowned deeply and showed a solemn expression. The Cangyue Imperial Tomb was full of mechanisms and was extremely dangerous. Countless Insect Kings from various families who entered here to find the path had already died.
The fact that this person could break into this tomb alone before this was enough to show that he was not simple. It was certain that he was far stronger than everyone in the tomb.
Without thinking, this old man must have been a big shot when he was alive. Even if he had no bones left now and only had a soul, he was absolutely not someone they could easily deal with.
Thinking this way in his heart, Long Xuan felt tight and immediately became vigilant.
However, after Lan Yan learned that this person was not Emperor Cangyue but a tomb robber who occupied the magpie's nest, he suddenly sneered and said disdainfully: "You can really pretend to be a ghost."
"I was wondering who it was; it turns out to be a thief who invaded someone else's tomb. Aren't you afraid of having no descendants?"
"The treasures in the coffin are all on you now, right? Obediently hand over all the treasures. A soul body like you can absolutely not be the opponent of our three peak Gu Kings."
"Don't force us to take action! Otherwise, we will beat you until your soul flies away and scatter, making you unable to even be a ghost."
Hearing this, the old soul immediately looked at him, glared at him, and said: "You juniors! Didn't you see that line of words? Those who rob my tomb will have their nine clans exterminated. You still dare to rob! Do you dare to report your name?"
Lan Yan suddenly showed a disdainful smile.
"Do you really think your grandfather was scared to grow up? What is there to dare? Listen well, I will not change my name or surname, my name is Lan Yan."
"I have told you my name now, what can you do to me?"
"Hmph! You still want to exterminate my nine clans? So what if you exterminate my ten clans? You exterminate one for me to see now!"
Lan Yan said very arrogantly, not taking the old man's threat seriously at all.
"Good! Very good! The old man hasn't seen such a brave junior for a long time." The old man looked at him with a cold gaze, as if looking at a dead person, then suddenly turned his head to look at Long Xuan and said coldly: "Junior! Do you dare to report your name!"
Long Xuan was stunned, then quickly reacted. Knowing that he was treated as Lan Yan's accomplice, he also pretended to be very arrogant and said loudly: "Pretending to be a ghost, you really think your little master was scared to grow up."
"Listen well, my name is Xuan Yuan Zhi, the number one powerhouse of the Xuanyuan Empire. I have told you my name now, what can you do to me?"
Hearing this, Lan Yan and Di Xin both looked at him with strange gazes and cursed shamelessly in their hearts.
Long Xuan sneered in his heart. No matter what means he had, only a fool would report his real name at this time. If he really had the ability to finish off his great enemy, that would be a great thing.
"Good good good good! Very good! It seems that the old man hasn't been out in the world for many years, and no one has taken me seriously anymore."
"Since you threatened to exterminate your own nine clans, then I will fulfill you today!"
Hearing the two of them being so disrespectful, the old man was furious in his heart. He immediately closed his eyes and didn't know what spell he was chanting, his speaking speed was extremely fast.
Long Xuan put away his curiosity and looked at Di Xin.
This old man didn't even let Di Xin report her name. Could it be that his ability had a limit on the number of times? He frowned deeply. Since that was the case, then this old man was absolutely not scaring people. He might really have the ability to exterminate people's nine clans from a distance. This Lan Yan seemed to be in big trouble.
Just as he was thinking this, Lan Yan suddenly screamed and fell to the ground in pain. He saw that his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth were all bleeding crazily. He had an extremely painful expression, rolling on the ground, and let out deafening screams.
Not long after, his body became stiff, his eyes widened, and he completely lost his breath.
Seeing this scene, Long Xuan was greatly shocked. This was a peak Gu King, one of the rare powerhouses in the Xuanyuan Empire, and he died just like this. How was this possible? How did he do it! At the same time, on the ground.
Xuan Yuan Zhi, who was healing his injuries, suddenly widened his eyes, and his eyeballs were instantly covered with bloodshot eyes, his expression extremely ferocious.
Soon he couldn't bear it anymore, fell to the ground in pain, and let out miserable screams.
He and Lan Yan had exactly the same symptoms, and all seven orifices were bleeding crazily.
"Prince! Prince!"
"Prince, what's wrong with you!"
A group of Gu cultivators from the Xuanyuan Imperial Family around them quickly surrounded them. However, before they had walked a few steps, they knelt on the ground one by one with extremely painful expressions, and screams were heard everywhere in the field.
On the ground, it was as if a terrible plague had suddenly broken out. All the Gu cultivators with the surname Xuanyuan were bleeding from seven orifices, falling to the ground in pain. After struggling for a period of time, their bodies became stiff, their eyes widened, and they lost their breath.
Even the powerful Xuan Yuan Zhi, after holding on for a period of time, slowly stopped moving. Until his death, his eyes were still wide open, and he couldn't close his eyes in death.
From beginning to end, he didn't understand how he died.
The terrible plague continued. In the Xuanyuan Imperial City, the Xuanyuan Emperor, who was in the court, suddenly sprayed a mouthful of blood and fell heavily to the ground, and the court was in chaos. At the same time, everyone in the palace with the surname Xuanyuan fell to the ground in pieces, each bleeding from seven orifices, with miserable screams, and the palace was soon in chaos.
On the street, the Xuanyuan clan Gu cultivators who were walking normally on the road also suddenly fell to the ground one after another, without warning, each bleeding from seven orifices, and after struggling in pain for a while, they soon lost their breath, and the street was instantly in chaos.
The same scene was happening in the Lan family residence in the city. The Lan family members fell to the ground in pieces, letting out painful screams. Not long after, the entire Lan family residence became completely quiet, the air was filled with a thick bloody smell, and there were no more living people.
The Lan family residence had a population of 100,000, regardless of cultivation level, and they all died suddenly in just a few breaths. The Lan family was thus exterminated.
Even the Lan family Gu cultivators who had already walked out of the Lan family residence were not spared, suddenly dying suddenly in various parts of the city, attracting countless onlookers.
Not long after, there was no one left in the Xuanyuan Imperial City with the surname Lan or Xuanyuan. The Gu cultivators of the two clans died out completely in the city, and the whole city was shocked.
This was not the end. The terrible plague continued. With the Xuanyuan Imperial City as the center, in the surrounding major cities, people with the surname Lan or Xuanyuan died miserably on the ground one after another, causing no small chaos.
After the Gu cultivators of the two major surnames in the surrounding cities were slaughtered, the plague continued to spread. Not long after, the Gu cultivators of the two clans in the entire Central State died suddenly one after another on this day and soon died out.
The plague continued, began to spread to the surrounding major regions, and even more distant regions.
On this day, the Gu cultivators of the two clans in major regions died in pieces. The number of people who died soon exceeded ten million, and the entire Gu World was shaken by this incident.
On this day, many people saw a huge eye suddenly appear in the sky, its cold gaze scanning back and forth on the earth, releasing an evil aura, and then quickly hidden...
At this time in the ancient tomb.
Long Xuan and the old soul stared at each other. The old man was confused, pointed at Long Xuan's nose, and said: "Damn! Why are you okay!"
"Should I have something?" Long Xuan looked at him suspiciously, looking at the corpses on the ground with a solemn expression.
He secretly sighed. Fortunately, he didn't report his real name. This old man's ability was truly inconceivable. He said he would exterminate nine clans, and he exterminated nine clans. It was simply unreasonable.
The powerful Lan Yan actually died instantly just because he reported his name. Until now, he hadn't seen how Lan Yan was killed, so he couldn't help but be extremely wary of this old man.
However, thinking that this old man didn't ask for Di Xin's name, such a heaven-defying ability must have a limit on the number of times it could be used, so Long Xuan's wariness of him was reduced by three points.
The old man rolled his eyes, as if thinking of something, suddenly widened his eyes, and said angrily: "I understand, you kid just used the name of your enemy. You are really damaging."
"Borrowing my hand to exterminate your enemy's nine clans, you are really damaging to the home!"
Hearing what the old man said, Long Xuan was very shocked. Although he had already guessed in his heart, hearing that Xuan Yuan Zhi had been exterminated still made him feel deeply shocked.
That was the powerful Xuanyuan Imperial Family, the imperial family of a country, with countless powerhouses. The powerful imperial family was exterminated by this person in a single thought? He simply couldn't believe it.
Di Xin suddenly looked at the old man, narrowed her eyes, and said: "If I'm not mistaken, the senior should possess the Curse Eye, which ranks seventh among the ten great forbidden Gu."
"In the Gu World, the only person who possesses the Curse Eye is the Xing Tian Ancestor Zang Tianyu from four hundred years ago."
"It is rumored that Zang Tianyu was surrounded and killed by thousands of Gu Kings from the Gu Emperor City organization because he refined forbidden Gu. I didn't expect that you didn't die and actually hid here."
Di Xin looked at him with a solemn gaze and said again: "In that battle, senior suffered heavy injuries. Except for the Curse Eye, the insects on your body should all be dead. You should be hiding here, borrowing the dragon Qi in the Cangyue Imperial Tomb to heal your injuries!"
"The power senior can use now should only be the Curse Eye."
"It is said that the Curse Eye can unconditionally curse and kill anyone in this world, unless the soul power is stronger, at least half of the senior's, to be immune to the curse power."
"Our soul power naturally cannot reach half of the senior's, but the curse power has a limit on the number of times. You have already used it twice today and can no longer pose a danger to the two of us."
Di Xin looked at him vigilantly, with no fear in her eyes.
Zang Tianyu looked at Di Xin, and the murderous intent that had just risen in his eyes quickly hidden.
That's right, after the great war four hundred years ago, except for the Curse Eye, his Gu insects were indeed dead, and even his physical body was blown up in that battle.
For so many years, he had been hiding here, on the one hand, to avoid the pursuit of Gu Emperor City, and on the other hand, to borrow the dragon Qi here to repair his injuries.
Soul trauma is extremely difficult to repair, and he had been repairing it for four hundred years.
Who would have thought that when his injuries were about to be healed, he was disturbed? Not to mention falling short, but at least one hundred years of effort had been wasted. He was so angry that he was almost going crazy, and he didn't hesitate to pay a great price to exterminate the tomb robbers' nine clans.
Before, he originally wanted to use the Curse Eye to curse and kill the two first, and in the one-on-one situation with the last one, he was not afraid at all.
But now someone cheated and reported a fake name, letting him luckily escape a disaster. In this way, he had to fight one against two.
In this situation, he didn't have the confidence to win.
Zang Tianyu took a deep breath, finally gave up the plan to fight hard with the two, looked around, and quickly flew into a tomb passage and disappeared.
Since there was no chance of winning, he could only abandon the coffin and flee at this time.
Seeing this mysterious powerhouse actually choose to flee without fighting, Long Xuan couldn't help but be stunned.
Originally, listening to Di Xin's meaning, this old demon named Zang Tianyu was very awesome, and even after Gu Emperor City launched a demon-slaying order, he wasn't completely killed. As a result, just this?
Compared to Long Xuan's relaxation, Di Xin let out a long sigh of relief, leaning heavily against the wall, as if she had collapsed.
She had just pretended to be calm. Facing this demon ancestor who had once turned the Central Region upside down, how could she not be afraid?
An old demon who refines forbidden Gu is absolutely invincible when there are not many people.
It was just that this old demon was too seriously injured, so he didn't see through their identities as Spirit Sea stage Gu cultivators, otherwise the consequences would be simply unimaginable.
Once Zang Tianyu chose to take action against them, they might have folded here today. Di Xin still felt a lingering fear.
