Chapter 394 The Emperor's Corpse? The Big Yellow Dog: Insane! This guy doesn't even deserve to be called an emperor!
"Hmm?"
"Girl Lin has... successfully inherited everything here?!"
Looking at the Big Yellow Dog's respectful demeanor, Old Man Jian was still a bit dazed.
He felt that everything happening was simply too surreal!
Just as they stepped through the courtyard gate, facing this unfathomable old yellow dog, each of them had been panicked to the core, fearing the beast would suddenly lash out and wipe them all out.
But all things considered, it hadn't even been ten minutes, right?
This ancient Daoist site had actually become their territory just like that... without shedding a drop of blood?
If he had known it would be this easy, what was he panicking about before?
"No..."
"If this yellow dog hadn't been wary of Girl Lin's identity as the dao ancestors spokesperson, it definitely wouldn't have compromised so readily!"
Old Man Jian's mind raced, and he quickly understood the key point.
The reason the Big Yellow Dog was willing to let Lin Xiyue inherit everything, and didn't even dare to have a thought of resisting,
was mainly because it had been completely fooled by his previous limit-testing bluff of "borrowing prestige from a powerful figure"!
If he hadn't had that sudden flash of inspiration to go with the flow and set up that taboo identity for Girl Lin, today's matter definitely wouldn't have ended so easily!
"Tsk tsk, it seems this old man's skill at bluffing is still as sharp as ever!"
Old Man Jian felt a bit of secret pride in his heart.
On the other side, Lin Xiyue was also taken aback upon hearing the Big Yellow Dog's statement.
"Big Yellow, are you telling the truth?!"
"Everything here... can really belong to me?!"
Her large eyes were sparkling, filled with excitement she couldn't hide.
This was the Daoist site of an ancient powerhouse!
Even just scraping off some scraps would probably be enough to overstuff Great Xia!
However.
When she full of anticipation took a serious look around, her excited little face suddenly froze, followed by a somewhat strange expression.
"Be that as it may..."
"Big Yellow, tell me honestly, was your master ever robbed?"
Lin Xiyue pointed at the empty world and couldn't help but complain:
"It seems like besides this big willow tree and the stone table and stools in front of us, there's nothing else here!"
That's right!
Don't look at how this Daoist site has rivers of stars flowing, seemingly vast and boundless with a top-tier atmosphere.
But in everyone's vision, this place was as clean as a blank sheet of paper, a vast emptiness,
where they couldn't see anything decent at all!
What kind of Legacy inheritance was this?
Inheriting the air?
"Woof?"
Hearing Lin Xiyue's doubt-filled complaint, the Big Yellow Dog rolled its eyes and explained somewhat helplessly:
"Young Miss, what kind of talk is that? How could my master's Daoist site have been robbed?"
"It's not that there's nothing here, it's just that the true foundations and treasures were all sealed away by my master back then!"
"Sealed?"
Gu Zhiyun was stunned as she listened and chimed in with confusion:
"Everything was fine, so why Seal them up?"
The Big Yellow Dog didn't directly answer Gu Zhiyun's question, but instead took a deep look at the yin-yang chessboard in Lin Xiyue's hands.
"Young Miss, as for what exactly happened back then, rather than listening to me, a dog, give a dry narration, why don't you personally activate the yin-yang chessboard in your hands?"
"This chessboard was kept by my master's side all year round, stained with the master's aura and Dao charm; it can manifest some true projections of this world from the past."
"You will know once you see!"
"Projections?"
Hearing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in Lin Xiyue's eyes.
"Okay, then I'll try!"
She nodded and slowly injected a sliver of her own spiritual energy into the yin-yang chessboard in her hands.
Hum!
In an instant, the yin-yang chessboard let out a crisp vibration!
The black and white light rippled outward like water waves, instantly driving the momentum of the entire starry sky Daoist site!
The surrounding stars seemed to come alive, beginning to rotate rapidly in a profound trajectory.
"Eh?!"
"What's that over there?!"
At that moment, Lin Xiyue's eyes suddenly widened, and she cried out in surprise!
As she activated the chessboard, she saw that in the deep starry sky far away, space distorted like a mirror.
Immediately after, an extremely massive outline of a humanoid creature emerged without any warning in that Void Realm!
"Oh my god!!"
"Could there be someone else here?!"
Gu Zhiyun also saw that figure following the direction of Lin Xiyue's finger, and was immediately startled, subconsciously hiding behind Lin Xiyue.
In this ancient ruin that had been silent for who knows how many tens of thousands of years, the sudden appearance of a person was simply more terrifying than seeing a ghost in the middle of the night!
"Don't panic, something's not right..."
Old Man Jian's expression also tightened; his brow furrowed as he stared intently at the figure in the Void Realm, saying in a low voice:
"That person... seems to have no life force flowing within them."
"Come, let's get closer and take a look!"
Intuition told Old Man Jian that the person was definitely not simple.
Immediately, he led everyone to fly over and investigate.
The closer they got, the more intense that oppressive feeling became.
And by the time Old Man Jian finally brought everyone near the figure,
and saw the scene before them clearly, everyone gasped!
This was actually a corpse that had been dead for an unknown number of ages!
But what was most suffocating was the aura emanating from this corpse!
Even though it had been dead for a long time, the lingering pressure on it was still unimaginably heavy!
It was an ultimate majesty that stood above all living beings, as if it could make ten thousand paths submit and the sun and moon lose their light!
Just by approaching within a thousand-foot range, Li Fan and Gu Zhiyun felt difficulty breathing and pain in their Divine Soul.
Even Old Man Jian's illusory remnant soul body was violently trembling under this lingering pressure!
"This... how is this possible?!!"
Old Man Jian braved that terrifying pressure and carefully investigated the corpse.
The next second.
On his aged face, an expression of shock and horror suddenly surfaced!
"This is... an Emperor's corpse?!!"
Boom!!!
An Emperor?!
Old Man Jian's shout was like Nine Heavens thunder, exploding directly in the minds of Lin Xiyue, Li Fan, and Gu Zhiyun!
It made the three young people's scalps tingle with fear!
What kind of joke was this?!
An Emperor's corpse?!
In this undersea ruin on Planet Blue, there was actually floating the corpse of a supreme Emperor who legendarily stood at the Peak of the Cangxuan Great Realm?!
This was too terrifying, wasn't it?!
"Emperor?"
Just as the three people and one soul were beyond shocked by this "Emperor Corpse" and even shivering a bit.
The Big Yellow Dog, which had been leisurely strolling along behind them, heard the title from Old Man Jian's mouth,
and couldn't help but tilt its dog head, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"You guys nowadays..."
"actually call a Cultivator of the Void Refinement and Dao Integration Realm an Emperor?!"
The Big Yellow Dog felt extremely speechless.
When did this kind of trash deserve to be crowned with such a high-end title as 'Emperor'?
One should know that in its era, daring to casually call oneself an Emperor was a suicidal act of great disrespect!
"Void Refinement and Dao Integration??"
The Big Yellow Dog didn't understand the 'Emperor' in Old Man Jian's mouth, and Old Man Jian was similarly bewildered, not understanding at all what kind of Realm the Big Yellow Dog's "Void Refinement and Dao Integration" was!
He only knew!
Although the aura emanating from this corpse was clearly very different from the Cultivators of their Cangxuan Great Realm in terms of the flow of Laws.
But!
That kind of profound and terrifying pressure that stood above all things, as if it could trample the stars of the heavens underfoot like an Emperor, definitely couldn't be faked!
This was also the fundamental reason he insisted this was an Emperor's corpse!
As a former Saint Realm Peak, Old Man Jian believed he could absolutely not sense such a level of power difference incorrectly!
"That's right, it's Void Refinement and Dao Integration."
"Before this corpse died, it was merely a Cultivator who had just entered the Void Refinement and Dao Integration Realm."
"It absolutely doesn't deserve the word 'Emperor'!"
At this point, the Big Yellow Dog's face suddenly became solemn.
It stared intently at Old Man Jian, as if educating him, yet also as if extremely seriously warning everyone:
"You must know, in the era I lived in..."
"People qualified to call themselves 'Emperor' were all unspeakable taboo existences!"
"So, never casually keep the word 'Emperor' on your lips!"
"If you accidentally get tainted by the great Karma of those taboo existences because of this, then it's all over!"
