821: Enter the Undead City, Undead Pawnshop

“Alas!”

The onlookers, seeing the shattered soul tablets, couldn't help but sigh, though they felt such a result was expected.

Since ancient times, so many powerhouses and so many forces had attacked Undying City, but how many had ultimately succeeded?

As one of the Nine Great Forbidden Zones of the Eastern Barrens, Undying City was riddled with killing intent, a place of certain death, and who dared to ignore its terror?

“They’ve all fallen!”

Some old geezers also looked despondent.

If they were to reach the end of their lifespan, with no other options, they would likely choose to enter a Forbidden Zone.

But they had already witnessed today’s situation: Xiu Tianchen and others had stepped into Undying City, one of the Nine Great Forbidden Zones.

Even with three supreme emperor artifacts suppressing it, the result was that they barely made a ripple.

Perhaps their situation, when the time came, would also be like Xiu Tianchen's and the others', making no waves and directly perishing.

Boom!

Another roar erupted from within Undying City, and three supreme emperor artifact auras exploded, tearing a massive rift in the sky.

The Hegemon Emperor’s Gate, the great luo heavenly sword, and the Bright Emperor’s Coffin soared into the heavens, entering the spatial rift and vanishing without a trace.

supreme emperor artifacts possessed spirits and carried the power of the Great Emperors who had achieved Dao; the Forbidden Zone could not hold them, and they would return to their respective factions.

As for treasures below the supreme emperor artifact level, once they entered the Forbidden Zone, they would either become damaged or be directly crushed within the Forbidden Zone, making it difficult for them to return!

“The three supreme emperor artifacts have already departed, but the Qingwu Sacred Sword of the Qingwu Sacred Dynasty has not returned.”

Seeing the three supreme emperor artifacts leave, everyone became even more convinced that those old geezers had completely perished.

“...”

Xie Weilou looked at Undying City, a complex expression in his eyes. Had Xiu Tianchen truly fallen?

He immediately activated his Heavenly Eye Vision, seeing through illusions, piercing through space, and directly observing the scene within Undying City.

Buzz!

Suddenly, he saw the scene inside Undying City.

Inside, there was a strange Corpse Skeleton riding a White Bone War Horse and wielding a black longsword.

The Corpse Skeleton’s eyes were blood-red, its body decayed, its White Bone exposed, covered in dense, strange runes, and its aura was terrifying, causing the surrounding space to crack.

Around the White Bone War Horse were four shattered corpses, but Xiu Tianchen’s corpse was not among them.

“Hiss, hiss!”

The White Bone War Horse seemed to sense something; it let out a series of urgent cries, its White Bone hooves stomping on the ground, causing the ground to violently shatter and space to continuously burst.

“Roar!”

The Corpse Skeleton on the warhorse instantly looked in Xie Weilou’s direction, letting out a roar, its eyes flashing with dazzling blood-light that pierced through space.

“...”

Xie Weilou’s pupils constricted; he felt his soul tremble, his eyes sting, blood flowed from his eyes, and his vision became somewhat blurred.

He said in a deep voice, “Not good! This Corpse Skeleton has discovered me…”

With that, he didn’t hesitate for a moment and quickly retreated.

Boom!

The Corpse Skeleton extended its hand, and a bloody palm print instantly blasted out from Undying City, crushing towards the crowd thirty li away.

“ Oops... The creature from Undying City has made a move! Retreat quickly!”

Everyone looked terrified and quickly fled for their lives; numerous ancient warships streaked across the sky, rushing into the distance.

Rumble!

As the palm print descended, space continuously shattered; before the crowd could escape far, they were locked onto by the bloody palm print, and some, unable to withstand the palm print’s pressure, already showed cracks on their bodies.

Xie Weilou fled tens of thousands of li, but found himself within the palm print’s blockade, which made his heart clench; he subconsciously prepared to summon his heaven suppressing stele.

Whoosh!

Just then, the rotten wood casket flew out from his storage ring, flickering with a mysterious power.

Within Undying City, the Corpse Skeleton seemed to sense something; the crimson light in its eyes flickered, and it moved a finger.

Buzz!

The power of the bloody palm print weakened, directly moving those people a hundred li away, without obliterating them.

The bloody palm print reached for the space where Xie Weilou was, gently tugging, forcibly pulling that section of space into Undying City… within Undying City.

“Trouble!”

Xie Weilou’s expression was extremely solemn.

He looked around; dense mist surrounded him, blocking spiritual sense detection, and his eyes were stinging, making it difficult to see far.

The rotten wood casket floated before him, flickering with faint light.

Buzz!

The mist before his eyes suddenly dissipated, and what appeared before Xie Weilou were towering modern skyscrapers, stretching endlessly as far as the eye could see, as if he were in a city on Earth.

“How is this possible?”

Xie Weilou’s heart tightened; how could there be a modern city here?

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

The Corpse Skeleton rode the White Bone War Horse closer; the White Bone War Horse’s eyes were blood-red, and its body exuded a tyrannical aura, as if it could crush Xie Weilou with a single step.

And the Corpse Skeleton’s aura was even more terrifying, with extremely dense blood-light in its eyes.

“Pfft!”

Xie Weilou was immediately shaken by the aura of the White Bone War Horse and the Corpse Skeleton, spitting out blood.

He immediately looked at his body; dense cracks appeared on his body, golden blood splattering out and staining his robes.

“What a terrifying aura…”

Xie Weilou stared at the warhorse and Corpse Skeleton before him, his expression growing even more solemn.

Neither the White Bone War Horse nor the Corpse Skeleton showed any signs of life or any soul fluctuations, yet they seemed to be living creatures.

If the White Bone War Horse and the Corpse Skeleton continued to approach, his body would likely be crushed to dust.

However, at such a critical moment, he would not cower; the heaven suppressing stele and the Heavenly Book were ready to be summoned at any time.

The White Bone War Horse and the Corpse Skeleton did not continue to approach.

The Corpse Skeleton extended its hand, and the rotten wood casket flew into its grasp; it examined the casket for a moment, then casually waved its hand, and the rotten wood casket flew towards a certain direction.

Buzz!

The surrounding scene changed again; what was previously a modern city had now become a vast, empty expanse, and the White Bone Corpse Skeleton and warhorse had vanished.

What appeared before Xie Weilou was a gray avenue, and at the end of the avenue was a decaying pawnshop.

The pawnshop’s door was open, revealing a pitch-black interior, like the mouth of a giant beast, and four characters were written on the shop: Undying Pawnshop!

At this moment, the rotten wood casket floated in front of the pawnshop.

“Undying Pawnshop?”

Xie Weilou looked at the pawnshop, a strange look in his eyes; the name was quite interesting.

After a brief thought, he was about to walk over to take a look.

Just then, a graceful figure appeared on the gray avenue; it was the Longevity Saintess.

However, at this moment, her eyes were hollow, a strange blood-red eyeball was embedded in her glabella, and in her palm, she held a White Bone Pagoda, clearly indicating she was being controlled.

“...”

Xie Weilou’s eyes narrowed, and he followed her.

Not long after.

The Longevity Saintess arrived in front of the Undying Pawnshop, and she let out a hoarse voice: “I exchange an item for something I left here in the past!”

She extended her hand, and the White Bone Pagoda flew into the pawnshop.

Whoosh!

The next second, an eyeball identical to the one in the Longevity Saintess’s glabella flew out from within the pawnshop.
