Chapter 494
: See the forbidden poison again
Long Xuan didn't say much. He stood far away from the coffin and looked at it vigilantly.
"Humph! You're just a coward."
Lan Yan looked at him with disdain, and finally stopped wasting time. He gently waved his right hand, and the coffin lid seemed to be pulled by a huge force and flew 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 yelled, "Damn it, who dares to dig my tomb? Didn't I tell you that it would bring disaster to all of your clan? How dare you dig!"
The sudden appearance of the old man's soul undoubtedly scared the three people. Even the brave Lan Yan couldn't help but take two steps back, his face slightly pale.
"Did Emperor Cangyue really come back to life?" This was the first thought that came to Long Xuan's mind at this moment, and a look of fear immediately appeared on his face.
However, he soon realized that something was wrong, because this soul had the aura of a peak Gu King and could never be Emperor Cangyue.
No matter who this soul body is, as long as he is at the level of Gu King, there will be almost no danger to him.
After all, the Gu King without a body cannot defeat the Gu King with a body, and the combat power of this soul body is probably not as good as Lan Yan.
It was precisely because he realized that this soul body was very weak that Long Xuan felt relieved and did not escape immediately.
Obviously, he was not the only one who noticed the situation of this soul. Lan Yan and Di Xin both quickly saw the truth about this soul. Seeing that it was just a remnant soul at the Gu King level, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Emperor Xin was the first to speak: "He is too weak, there is no way he can be Emperor Cang Yue."
"If I'm not mistaken, this person found the Cang Yue Emperor's Mausoleum a long time ago, but he was also about to die and urgently needed to build a large tomb. Seeing that there was a huge mausoleum here, he threw away the corpse of Emperor Cang Yue and ran into the coffin to occupy the magpie's nest."
Hearing this, Long Xuan's face turned strange. Since he couldn't build a luxurious tomb for himself, he occupied someone else's tomb. Are there still people like him in this world?
However, he soon frowned deeply again, revealing a solemn look. The Cangyue Imperial Mausoleum was filled with traps and was extremely dangerous. Countless Gu Kings from major families who entered here to explore the way had died.
The fact that this person was able to break into this tomb alone before was enough to show that he was no ordinary person. It was certain that he was far stronger than everyone else in the tomb.
There is no doubt that this old man must have been an important figure when he was alive. Even if there is no body left now and only a soul remains, he is not someone they can easily deal with.
Thinking of this in his mind, Long Xuan's heart tightened and he immediately became alert.
However, when Lan Yan learned that this person was not Emperor Cang Yue, but a tomb robber who had taken over the tomb, he immediately sneered and said disdainfully: "What a trick."
"Who did I think he was? Turns out to be a thief who occupied someone else's tomb. Aren't you afraid of losing your descendants?"
"All the treasures in the coffin are on you now. Hand them over obediently. You, a soul, can never be a match for the three of us, the peak Gu Kings."
"Don't force us to take action! Otherwise, we will beat you to pieces and make it impossible for you to be a ghost."
Hearing the voice, the old soul immediately looked at him, glaring at him and said, "You little bastard! Didn't you see the words? Anyone who steals my tomb will bring disaster to the entire clan. How dare you steal it! Do you dare to tell me your name?"
Lan Yan immediately showed a disdainful smile.
"Do you really think I was scared? Why not? Listen carefully, I will never change my name. My name is Lan Yan."
"Now that I've told you my name, what can you do to me?"
"Humph! You still want to kill nine of my clans? So what if you want to kill ten of my clans? Kill one now and let me see!"
Lan Yan said arrogantly, not taking the old man's threat seriously at all.
"Good! Very good! I haven't seen such a brave junior in a long time." The old man looked at him coldly, as if he was looking at a dead person. Suddenly he turned his head and looked at Long Xuan, and said in a cold voice: "Junior! Dare to tell me your name!"
Long Xuan was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that he was being treated as Lan Yan's accomplice, so he pretended to be very arrogant and said loudly: "You are playing tricks, do you really think that I was scared?"
"Listen carefully, my name is Xuanyuan Zhi, and I am the strongest person in the Xuanyuan Empire. I am telling you my name now, what can you do to me?"
Hearing this, Lan Yan and Di Xin both looked at him with strange eyes, secretly cursing him as shameless.
Long Xuan sneered in his heart. No matter what means he had, only a fool would reveal his real name at this time. If he really had the ability to kill his archenemy, that would be the best thing.
"Good, good, good! Very good! It seems that no one takes me seriously anymore because I haven't been out of the world for many years."
"Since you have threatened to exterminate my entire clan, I will grant your wish today!"
Hearing the two people's rude remarks, the old man became furious. He immediately closed his eyes and muttered some incantation at a very fast speed.
Long Xuan put away his curiosity and glanced at Emperor Xin.
This old man didn't even ask Emperor Xin to tell his name. Is there a limit to the number of times his ability can be used?
He frowned deeply. If that was the case, then this old man was definitely not trying to scare people. He might really have the ability to exterminate an entire clan from a distance. It seemed that Lan Yan was in big trouble.
Just as he was thinking this, Lan Yan suddenly screamed and fell to the ground in pain. His eyes, ears, nose and mouth were bleeding wildly. He looked extremely painful and rolled on the ground, screaming loudly.
Soon, his body stiffened, his eyes widened, and he was completely silent.
Seeing this scene, Long Xuan was greatly shocked. This was a peak Gu King, a rare strong man in the Xuanyuan Empire. How could he die like this? How could he do it!
Meanwhile, on the ground.
Xuanyuan Zhi, who was recovering from his injuries, suddenly widened his eyes. His eyeballs were instantly filled with bloodshot and his expression was extremely ferocious.
Soon he could no longer bear it and fell to the ground in pain, screaming miserably.
He suffered the same symptoms as Lan Yan, with blood gushing out of all seven orifices.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
"My Lord, what's wrong with you?"
……
All the Gu cultivators from the Xuanyuan royal family quickly gathered around them, but before they could take a few steps, they fell to their knees on the ground one by one with expressions of extreme pain, and the venue was instantly filled with screams.
Suddenly, it was as if a terrible plague broke out on the ground. All the Gu practitioners with the surname Xuanyuan began bleeding from all their orifices and fell to the ground in pain. After struggling for a while, their bodies became stiff, their eyes widened, and they became silent.
Even the powerful Xuanyuan Zhi, after holding on for a while, gradually became motionless. Until his death, his eyes were still wide open, and he died with his eyes open.
He never understood how he died.
The terrible plague continued. In the Xuanyuan Imperial City, Emperor Xuanyuan, who was in the court, suddenly vomited blood and fell heavily to the ground. The court was in chaos. At the same time, all the people with the surname Xuanyuan in the palace fell to the ground in groups, bleeding from all seven orifices, screaming miserably, and the palace soon became chaotic.
On the street, the Xuanyuan clan Gu practitioners who were walking normally on the road suddenly fell to the ground one after another without any warning. Each of them was bleeding from all seven orifices. After struggling in pain for a while, they soon lost their breath. The street was instantly in chaos.
The same scene was happening in the Lan family's residence in the city. Members of the Lan family fell to the ground in large numbers, screaming in pain. Soon, the entire Lan family mansion became completely quiet. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there were no survivors.
There were a total of 100,000 people in the Lan family mansion, regardless of their realm, and they were all killed in just a few breaths, and the Lan family was wiped out.
Even the Lan clan's Gu practitioners who had already walked out of the Lan clan's mansion were not spared and suddenly died in various places in the city, attracting countless onlookers.
Not long after, there was no one with the surname Lan or Xuanyuan anymore in the Xuanyuan Imperial City. The two clans’ Gu cultivators were completely wiped out in the city, and everyone in the city was shocked.
This is not the end. The terrible plague is still continuing. With the Xuanyuan Imperial City as the center, people with the surname Lan and Xuanyuan continue to die tragically on the ground in the surrounding cities, causing considerable chaos.
After all the Gu cultivators from the two major families in the surrounding cities were slaughtered, the plague continued to spread, and soon, all the Gu cultivators from the two families in the entire Zhongzhou died suddenly one after another on this day, and soon all of them were wiped out.
The plague continued and began to spread to the surrounding areas and even to more distant areas.
On this day, large numbers of Gu practitioners from the two clans in various regions died, and the death toll soon exceeded tens of millions. 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 swept across the land, releasing an evil aura before quickly disappearing...
……
At this time in the ancient tomb.
Long Xuan and the old soul stared at each other. The old man was confused and pointed at Long Xuan's nose and said in astonishment: "Fuck! How come you are okay!"
"Should I be in trouble?" Long Xuan looked at him doubtfully, then looked at the corpse on the ground with a solemn expression.
He sighed inwardly, fortunately he did not give his real name. The old man's ability was incredible. He said he would exterminate nine generations of a person, which was totally unreasonable.
The powerful Lan Yan was killed instantly just because he reported his name. Until now he still couldn't figure out how Lan Yan was killed. He couldn't help but be extremely afraid of this old man.
However, thinking that the old man did not ask Emperor Xin's name, and that such a miraculous ability must have a limit on the number of times it can be used, Long Xuan's fear of him was reduced by three points.
The old man rolled his eyes, as if he had thought of something. Suddenly his eyes widened and he said angrily, "I understand. You just used the name of your enemy. You are really mean."
"You've done yourself a disservice by using my hand to wipe out all nine clans of your enemies!"
Hearing what the old man said, Long Xuan was very shocked. Although he already had some guesses in his mind, he was still deeply shocked to hear with his own mouth that Xuanyuan Zhi had been exterminated.
That was the powerful Xuanyuan Imperial Family, the royal family of a country, with countless strong men. How could such a powerful royal family be wiped out in a single thought? He simply couldn't believe it.
Emperor Xin suddenly looked at the old man, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "If I am not guessing, Senior should have the Cursed Eye, which ranks seventh among the Ten Forbidden Gu."
"The only person in the Gu world who possesses the Cursed Eye is the ancestor of Xingtian, Zang Tianyu, who lived four hundred years ago."
"It is rumored that Zang Tianyu was surrounded and killed by thousands of Gu Kings organized by the Gu Emperor City because of refining forbidden Gu. I didn't expect that you are not dead and are hiding here."
Emperor Xin looked at him solemnly and said, "In that battle, you were seriously injured. All the poisonous insects in your body should have died, except for the Cursed Eye. You should be hiding here, borrowing the dragon energy in the Cangyue Imperial Mausoleum to heal your wounds!"
"The only power that Senior can use now is the Cursed Eye."
"I heard that the Cursed Eye can unconditionally kill anyone in this world. Only those with stronger soul power, at least half of that of my predecessor, can be immune to the curse."
"Of course, our soul powers are not even half as strong as yours, but the power of the curse is limited in how many times you can use it. You have already used it twice today, and you can no longer pose a threat to us."
Emperor Xin looked at him warily, without any fear in his eyes.
Zang Tianyu looked towards Emperor Xin, and the murderous intent that had just risen in his eyes quickly disappeared.
That’s right, after the great battle four hundred years ago, except for the Cursed Eye, all the poisonous insects in his body were indeed dead, and even his body was blown up in that battle.
He has been hiding here for so many years, on the one hand to avoid being hunted down by Guhuang City, and on the other hand to borrow the dragon energy here to heal his injuries.
Soul trauma is extremely difficult to repair, and he has been repairing it for four hundred years.
He never expected that when he was about to recover from his injuries, he would be disturbed. Not to mention that all his efforts were in vain, but at least a hundred years of hard work had been wasted. He was so angry that he was almost going crazy, and he was willing to pay a huge price to kill the nine clans of the tomb robber.
Before, he had wanted to use the Cursed Eye to kill two people first, and he was not afraid of the last person in a one-on-one situation.
But now there was someone who cheated and gave a false name, allowing him to escape by luck. Now he was facing two people at once.
In this situation, he no longer had the confidence to win.
Zang Tianyu took a deep breath and finally gave up the idea of fighting the two men head-on. He looked around and quickly flew into a tomb passage and disappeared.
Since he had no chance of winning, he could only abandon the coffin and flee.
Seeing that this mysterious strong man actually chose to flee without fighting, Long Xuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Originally, according to Emperor Xin, this old demon named Zang Tianyu was very powerful. Even when Guhuang City issued the Demon-Slaying Order, he was not completely killed. How could this be the result?
Compared to Long Xuan's ease, Di Xin breathed a sigh of relief and leaned heavily against the wall, as if he was exhausted.
She was just pretending to be calm. How could she not be afraid when facing this demon ancestor who had turned the Central Region upside down?
An old demon who refines forbidden Gu is absolutely invincible when he is outnumbered.
It was because the old demon was injured too badly that he failed to see through their identities as Spirit Sea Stage Gu Cultivators, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous.
Once Zang Tianyu chose to attack them, the two of them would most likely have died here today. Emperor Xin still feels a little scared.
