Chapter 1710 1613, The Corpse King’s Secret (First Update)
“Pavilion Master, are you saying that there’s something else going on?”Su Yu asked.
Mu Canghai’s weathered eyes were filled with tears and tears as he sobbed, “Actually, we didn’t encounter the killing array like the rumors said!”
What? Su Yu was surprised. “Then why did the eight Pavilion Masters of the Star Pavilion end up in such a miserable state?”
Back then, those who could become pavilion masters were all mystic crystal overlords.
With eight people working together, even a half-step emperor of heaven and earth would have to retreat, right?
Why did seven people die and one was injured in one night, causing the heavenly dry star tribulation that caused a sensation in the world?
“Because...”mu Canghai recalled. Even after 30,000 years, he still had lingering fear in his heart. His voice trembled slightly. “What we encountered was something even more terrifying!”
“I saw rows of ancient stone coffins erected in the ancient star! “They covered the entire ancient star, and the number was immeasurable!”Mu Canghai said, “In each ancient stone coffin, there was an ancient corpse! “They rose from the dead and absorbed corpse Qi from the stone coffins to cultivate!”
Su Yu’s heart jumped. Ancient corpses that rose from the dead? Absorbed Corpse Qi to cultivate?
Wasn’t that what he saw in the mystic ice space?
“At the end of the stone coffins, I saw a huge altar, and on the altar, there were ten unusually large ancient bronze coffins!”Mu Canghai’s expression was filled with fear. “In the ancient bronze coffins, there were ten emperor-level corpse kings!”
Ten? Su Yu’s pupils constricted.
Not to mention the other stone sarcophagus, the ten corpse kings in the ancient bronze sarcophagus were enough to sweep through the once glorious ancient divine realm!
“Our arrival woke up one of the corpse kings and they started to chase us.”Mu Canghai’s old tears flowed down. “The eight of us weren’t even a match for the corpse king. We didn’t even have the chance to escape!”
In front of the Emperor of Heaven and earth, the Overlord of the Mystic Crystal realm was just a tiny creature.
Then, how did Mu Canghai escape? Did he really sacrifice seven of his companions in order to escape on his last breath?
“The eight of us were all suppressed by the corpse king. He sealed us in eight stone coffins to turn us into the corpse race.”Mu Canghai trembled as he said, “At the last moment, it was the great pavilion master who used a forbidden technique to dream the world ending Cliff, and sent me, who was the closest to him, out of the ancient star through his dream realm!”
“However, in front of the Emperor of Heaven and earth, the Overlord’s divine technique was just a joke. The Corpse King killed the Great Pavilion Master who was casting the technique with one palm and broke the forbidden technique. I teleported halfway and fell back to the ancient star!”Mu Canghai said, “But the other six pavilion masters also attacked at this time. They self-detonated the gate of the inner mansion one after another to continue the great pavilion master’s forbidden technique. I was lucky enough to escape.”
“But all of them died tragically. None of them survived.”
Mu Canghai’s expression was sorrowful and filled with guilt.
Was this the truth?
They were the ones who took the initiative to sacrifice themselves, not Mu Canghai who was afraid of death and mutilated them.
Looking at the old body that kept shaking, Su Yu finally understood why everyone despised him. The descendants of the Seven Pavilion Masters treated him as their enemy, cursing and harming her everywhere, but she was indifferent.
She neither refuted nor retaliated, allowing them to do whatever they wanted.
So it was guilt!
The seven pavilion masters had used their lives to exchange for her continuation. She was burdened with heavy shackles, and even if she was harmed by the descendants of the Seven Pavilion Masters, she was unwilling to attack them.
Staring at him deeply, Su Yu sighed silently.
He also finally understood why the Star Pavilion at that time would still take in the “Cowardly”mu Canghai.
It turned out that there was an unknown reason for everything.
“Not long after, that corpse king woke up the other two corpse kings. The three corpse kings appeared in the Sea of constellations and caused an endless disaster!”Mu Canghai revealed the unknown truth -- the ancient corpse came from that ancient planet beyond the heavens!
“It was precisely because I returned alive and reported the news to the star pavilion that the head pavilion master, who was in deep seclusion, was able to come out in time to turn the tide and force the three corpse kings into seclusion. He even forced the emperor corpse to seal itself.”
Su Yu asked curiously, “Then your cultivation level is...”
A bitter smile flashed across the corner of Mu Canghai’s mouth. “During the battle with the corpse clan, I found the corpse king who killed the Seven Pavilion Masters. I wanted to take revenge for them. I didn’t care about my cultivation level and used a forbidden technique. Unfortunately, it was just a moth flying into the fire. That Corpse King defeated my forbidden technique with a thought. If it wasn’t for the head pavilion master, I would have long been white bones.”
So that was the case.
However, Mu Canghai still hadn’t explained the origin of the black-gray stone.
As if he knew what Su Yu was thinking, Mu Canghai continued, “However, my forbidden technique didn’t completely fail. At least I cut off a finger from the corpse king’s body.”
Su Yu’s heart jumped, “Could it be that you’re saying that the black-gray stone is the corpse king’s finger?”
Mu Canghai said, “Hehe, at first, I was like you. I didn’t believe it at all, and I didn’t believe that there was anything in the world that could improve the comprehension of cultivation techniques. But the truth is right before my eyes!”
Su Yu’s heart trembled.
The Corpse King’s body was actually formed from such a strange stone!
“In the past 30,000 years, I’ve studied it carefully and managed to find an explanation.”Mu Canghai’s eyes shone with a deep light. “Life and death are maintained by the laws of Heaven and earth. No living being can reserve this law! “However, how can dead ancient corpses be resurrected? “The answer lies in their bodies
“In this special material body, it’s possible to avoid the laws of life and death and resurrect from the dead.”
Her explanation sounded impossible for ordinary people to understand.
However, Su Yu, who had come into contact with the mother of all laws, believed her.
People couldn’t be resurrected from the dead. This was the original law of the absolute beginning world, which was decided by the absolute beginning Great Dao,
there were only two kinds of people who could break the restrictions of the absolute beginning Great Dao.
One was like Su Yu, who had the life power Upanishad of the Eight Great Heavenly Dao. The other was to avoid the detection of the absolute beginning Great Dao.
Even if it was the former, if Su Yu wanted to resurrect a person, he needed a prerequisite. That person still had his aura in this world. Otherwise, Su Yu wouldn’t be able to resurrect a person out of thin air.
One could imagine that it wasn’t easy for the latter to avoid the detection of the absolute beginning Great Dao.
This body made of heaven-defying materials could protect the dead from the detection of the absolute beginning Great Dao. It had a certain amount of power.
The problem was, where did this material come from? It had never been recorded in many ancient books!
It couldn’t have been born out of thin air, right?
“Then, what about the ordinary corpse clan?”Su Yu asked.
Mu Canghai shook his head: “No!”! The true corpse race was born with the cultivation of the Emperor of Heaven and earth, which was also the level of the corpse king. The ancient corpses under their control were all sealed by the creatures they captured. Just like the Corpse King that year, he wanted to refine the eight of us into his puppets. Their bodies were only flesh and blood.”
Hearing this, Su Yu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
A Corpse King? Wasn’t the corpse race too terrifying?
All of a sudden, Su Yu’s heart moved.
Mu Canghai’s high-speed black-gray Stone’s origin and the secrets of the ancient star, what was his purpose?
After thinking for a while, Su Yu said, “Pavilion master hopes that I can enter the ancient star?”
He wanted to obtain the black-gray stone, so he could only enter the ancient star.
Mu Canghai praised, “It’s very easy to talk to you. You Don’t even need to give me advice.”
She looked out of the sky, her chest full of anguish. “For 30,000 years, I’ve been searching for a suitable candidate. I hope that someone can enter the ancient star for me and bring back the corpses of the seven of them.”
“This is the greatest wish of my life!”
Su Yu was silent.
The corpses of the seven Xuan crystal overlords had already been turned into ancient corpses when they landed in a place like the ancient star where the corpse Qi was soaring to the sky, right?
Bringing them back was not as simple as “Bringing them back”?
Even if there were no other obstacles, just subduing the seven ancient corpses of the Xuan crystal overlords would require supreme divine power.
“Pavilion Master, don’t you think too highly of me?”Su Yu smiled bitterly and said, “Gu Xing is such a dangerous place. If I go there, I will definitely not return.”
Mu Canghai said, “You saved my life at the dream ancient altar. The debt of gratitude has long been repaid. How can I have the face to ask you to go into danger for me?”
Su Yu was slightly stunned. “Then pavilion master wants me to enter the ancient star because...”
Mu Canghai’s lips curled into a cold smile as he said, “I’m giving you a great opportunity!”
Opportunity? What kind of opportunity could there be in such a ferocious place like the ancient star?
“The Star Pavilion started setting up 30,000 years ago, in order to capture all the ancient corpses that have yet to awaken in the ancient star!”Mu Canghai said, “Now that 30,000 years have passed, the head pavilion master’s injuries have recovered, and his divine arts have been completed. He already has the ability to compete with that emperor corpse. It’s time to eliminate the threat of the ancient corpse.”
Su Yu’s heart was boiling when he heard this. “Pavilion Master, are you saying that the star pavilion will slaughter their way into the ancient star?”
Mu Canghai clenched his fists, flames burned in his eyes. “Not just the Star Pavilion, the South Sea, East Sea, and North Sea will all be invited to participate in the extermination of the ancient star! At that time, all the overlords and above will be mobilized to participate in the Battle of Life and Death!”
“If you can follow the army and seize some corpse King’s remains, it will be an unimaginable opportunity for your various divine arts. It will be hundreds of times stronger than the opportunity in the ancient Dream Altar!”Mu Canghai’s eyes were burning.
In the current world, other than the three Great Pavilion Masters of the Star Pavilion, the head pavilion master, and Mu Canghai, only Su Yu knew the secret of the Corpse King’s body.
Without the knowledge of others, he had come prepared to collect the corpse king’s remains. One could only imagine how advantageous it was.
Back then, even a small piece of it could allow Su Yu to capture the inspiration for the son of Heaven’s aura-gazing technique to break through to the soul devouring realm. If he could obtain even more, wouldn’t all divine arts come naturally?
Thinking up to this point, Su Yu’s emotions surged, and he was exceptionally tempted!
“However...”Mu Canghai was a little hesitant. “Other than our sea of constellations, there might be other forces from overseas participating. Whether they know the secret of the corpse king’s body or not, we don’t know.”
Hearing this, Su Yu was slightly shocked. “Forces from overseas? Are there still other forces outside the Sea of constellations?”
The absolute beginning world he knew was only limited to the sea of constellations.
“Of course!”Mu Canghai said, “The sea of constellations is just one of the thousands of civilizations in the absolute beginning realm.”
