444: The four tortoise shell fragments merged into one, the ninth ancestor of Da Chu, the corpse ancestor
Only a few items caught his attention.
The first was an ancient book, on which were written four large characters, “Blood Sacrifice Ascension Art,” which described how to break through the heaven and earth limit under the suppression of heaven and earth.
It aimed to cause continuous disasters in the Three Prefectures, destroy the Luck of the Three Prefectures, lead to collapse, form a large amount of resentment Qi, and then use a blood sacrifice Formation to devour the life essence of all people to achieve a Breakthrough to a higher Realm.
Chu Jiang glanced at it and threw it aside.
The second was a blood-red Medicinal Pill, the Resentful Dragon Pill, which was refined from the resentment Qi wandering in the Three Prefectures. It possessed immense energy and contained special energy rules, which could increase the probability of impacting the upper limit of a Realm, but there was a 50% chance of falling into depravity.
It was Wu Ling King’s backup plan.
The third was a deep-blue Top-Grade Spirit Stone. Top-Grade Spirit Stones are extremely rare. They can not only be used by Advanced Cultivators for Cultivation but also provide energy for some top-tier Formations, activate ancient teleportation Formations, and so on.
The fourth, he had to admit his Luck was good, this third item that caught his attention was a mysterious turtle shell fragment, from the same source as the one he had obtained earlier.
Could this be what Wu Ling King meant by continuous Luck in the early stage?
He looked at the panel.
“From Mount Relying Sect, Kaoshan Ancestor’s table mat (4), indestructible. Young man, you have to admit your Luck is explosive, all four turtle shell fragments have been collected.”
He saw.
The four mysterious turtle shell fragments began to attract each other, merging to form a complete, flawless turtle shell, covered with runes and shining with light, truly extraordinary.
Chu Jiang’s Divine Sense entered it to scan.
“Blood Fiend Puppet Heart Art: Using living people as Puppets, with their vital essence as a guide, blood talismans can be carved into the Puppet’s heart orifice to control their life and death.”
“Blood Eye Soul Seizing Art: Blood wheels appear in both pupils, capable of eroding others’ Divine Sense, exploring others’ memories. There is a certain failure rate, which can lead to incomplete memories.”
Not bad.
Reading memories, this skill.
It’s simply a Divine Artifact.
It’s a tier higher than the Soul Seizing Art, which is an evil art.
Chu Jiang’s eyes lit up. With this Blood Fiend Puppet Heart Art, it was perfect to refine Wu Ling King into a Puppet. A Rongtian Three Cultivator, it would indeed be a pity to kill him.
He looked at Wu Ling King, his eyes becoming fervent.
As if looking at a peerless treasure.
“What are you doing?!”
Wu Ling King felt a chill from Chu Jiang’s gaze. Seeing his eerie smile, he knew he wasn’t up to any good.
“In you go!”
Chu Jiang clapped his large hand, sending Wu Ling King into the purple gold gourd.
After he studied it for a while, he would refine Wu Ling King into a Blood Puppet.
“It’s finally over!”
King Song flew over, saying in a deep voice.
The Yan Luo Temple’s layout in the Three Prefectures was finally concluding today.
Although there were some unexpected incidents along the way, the outcome remained unchanged.
As he spoke.
He seemed to remember something.
He took out a black mirror and sent a message.
King Song: “No need to come, the Eternal Mother has been repelled by Chu Jiang!” (Grinning)
King Guang of Qin: What? (° Д °) (Confused)
King Guang of Qin: The person has already departed, they should be arriving soon.
King Song: Who? (Confused)
King Guang of Qin: It’s the Ninth Ancestor, Corpse Old Ancestor, he’s the closest to you all.
King Song: Oh no, it’s over. ┑( ̄ Д  ̄)┍
He looked at Chu Jiang, his expression grave as he sent a voice transmission: “King Guang of Qin’s reinforcements, Corpse Old Ancestor, are coming.”
“Corpse Old Ancestor, who is he?”
Chu Jiang frowned. Someone who could make King Song so wary must not be an ordinary person, but since he was an reinforcement, why was he so nervous?
“Corpse Old Ancestor is the Ninth Ancestor of the Great Chu Dynasty. To extend his Lifespan and maintain the foundation of Great Chu, he sealed himself in a heavenly coffin.”
“Corpse Old Ancestor is not of imperial bloodline. He was invited by the Sixth Chu Emperor to join the Dynasty and is the only person of a different surname among the imperial Old Ancestors.”
“His Qi and blood, and Lifespan, have long dried up. Ordinary treasures can no longer extend his life, so he cannot easily make a move.”
“Every time he makes a move, he has to devour a large amount of enemy blood to maintain his vitality.”
“Now that the Wu Spirit Royal Mansion has been destroyed and the Eternal Mother has retreated, he has lost his target for devouring.”
King Song said in a deep voice.
If he couldn’t be provided with a large amount of life essence, Corpse Old Ancestor might find it difficult to continue existing.
This was also why the Old Ancestors didn’t easily make a move; it would accelerate their death. Losing an Old Ancestor would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to Great Chu.
Spiritual Qi was dwindling year by year.
These were all foundations for resisting unknown risks.
The confidence for Great Chu to become a central Dynasty.
The Old Ancestors of Great Chu were different from those of other forces stationed in the center.
Half were in the imperial capital, and the other half were scattered across the land, able to both resist foreign enemies in time and allocate forces, as well as prevent being wiped out in one go.
Corpse Old Ancestor, the Ninth Ancestor of the Dynasty.
Chu Jiang murmured to himself.
Just what kind of divine and sacred place was this Yan Luo Temple, and why could it mobilize an imperial Old Ancestor?
Even the Chu Emperor himself would find it difficult to get an imperial Old Ancestor to emerge from seclusion.
But King Guang of Qin did it easily.
The Sixth Chu Emperor was the ruler of the Dynasty three thousand years ago, at a time when the heaven and earth ancestral pulse was being eroded.
The current Chu Emperor is the Eighth Chu Emperor, who has been on the throne for two thousand years, the longest-reigning emperor in the Dynasty’s history.
It seems that although newcomers cannot Breakthrough to the Rongtian Realm in this world, there are still old antiques from several millennia ago remaining.
They are clinging to life through various means, waiting for a great change in heaven and earth.
However, although these people are powerful, they cannot act recklessly, otherwise, it will accelerate the process of their Lifespan decay.
Conversely, those who Break through under the suppression of heaven and earth do not have such great restrictions.
Staying invincible in the Heaven and Earth Realm is not his pursuit; he must Breakthrough to the Rongtian Realm as soon as possible.
Once this matter is concluded, he will ask the three Kings of Yan Luo Temple where there are Advanced extreme yang objects to help him advance.
…
At this moment.
An unknown place.
A golden ancient coffin was soaring into the sky, constantly tearing through the Void Realm.
Nine chains dragged the broken bricks of the underground palace, like the tails of flood Dragons, whipping wildly through the clouds.
Around the coffin, seven terrifying Corpse Puppets protected it.
Black mist spewing from the coffin lid’s cracks condensed into a skeletal Dragon head, carrying a fishy wind as it swept across the Void Realm. Wherever it passed, everything was frozen.
In an instant, it covered hundreds of miles.
From the bottom of the coffin, a drop of viscous golden blood occasionally seeped out, falling to the ground and eroding a hundred-zhang black pit.
It rapidly broke through the air towards Wu Prefecture City.
