Chapter 3792: Not a Pawn (Revision)
y been downgraded and were about to be expelled from the sect were no exception.They still want to see how this guy, who didn't pass the first round but somehow got lucky and moved on, will perform in...At the thought of these things he had deduced, Ginger Cloud's heart was greatly shaken, and he even refused to believe that his deductions were true.
But besides that, Jiang Yun really couldn't think of a second possibility to explain his doubts.
Looking at the imperial skeleton, which had returned to its tranquil state, Jiang Yun murmured to himself, "To know if my guess is right, all I need to do is verify it!"
This power of the formation, was weakening as Lv Zisu and the other three approached. It consumed a large amount of energy from the four array spirits to kill countless skeletons, which resulted in its continuous decline.
"So, as long as we prevent them from getting closer, or send them back to their original positions, preventing the spirit soldiers from continuing to consume energy, there's a possibility that the array's power could recover some."
"Once it recovers, the formation's power to suppress the Emperor's Bones will also be strengthened again, thereby reducing the amount of power he is able to recover!"
At this point, Jiang Yun's divine sense instantly enveloped the entire formation again, seeing Lü Zisu and the other four rushing towards the remains of the Emperor.
Of the four, Xu Longxiang was closest to Jiang Yun, more than two hundred zhang away. Lü Zisu was the farthest from Jiang Yun, nearly a thousand zhang away.
The multicolored glows enveloping the four people were much dimmer than they had been at first.
Especially the shadow formed by that radiance became even more blurred.
Obviously, from their position, all the way here killing, the consumption of spirits was simply too great.
"Lu girl!"
In Lü Zisu's ears, she heard Jiang Yun's voice transmitted through their spiritual connection, and she simply nodded lightly.
She couldn't, because at this moment, all her energy was focused on those skeletons. She didn't have any spare energy left to respond to Jiang Yun's words, not even enough to open her mouth.
Ginger Cloud could naturally see Lu Zi Su's situation, so she followed up with: "Miss Lu, you don't need to answer, just listen to me."
I now suspect that this Imperial Heirloom is problematic, at least not as we imagined it.
"If the four of you continue like this, in the end you will not only fail to obtain the Emperor's inheritance, but you might even lose your lives. Moreover, it could even endanger the entire chaotic world!"
This is not Ginger Cloud speaking alarmist words.
If all his speculations are true, and if he ultimately releases the emperor's skeleton from the formation, then this emperor will definitely not continue to stay within the Emperor's Cave, but will enter the Chaotic Realm.
This emperor, since he was imprisoned in an array by the joint efforts of the four clans back then, it can be imagined that he must have resentment towards the people of the four clans and must want to take revenge.
Although Jiang Yun didn't know much about the situation in the chaotic realm, he at least knew that within the chaotic realm, it was forbidden for Celestial Venerables to appear in their true forms.
Then, suddenly there appeared an emperor seeking revenge in the chaotic world. I'm afraid no cultivator could stop the emperor's vengeful steps.
Ultimately, the entire chaotic world, including all members of the four tribes within it, could be wiped out by the emperor!
Then Ginger Cloud continued, "And now, I need you to help me verify if my guess is correct."
"I hope you can turn around and get back to where you were standing originally. Please don't kill any more of these skeletons, and hurry back!"
Upon hearing Ginger Cloud's words, Lu Zi Su was instantly taken aback, her face also revealing a look of disbelief.
He had finally, after much hardship and risking his life, traveled such a great distance from his original location. He was almost at the Emperor's Skeleton.
And now, Jiang Yun is actually asking me to walk that path again, and even refrain from killing these skeletons. How can I possibly agree to that
Looking at Lü Zisu's silence, Jiang Yun also knew that his request was indeed a difficult one.
Even, it is possible to make Lü Zisu mistakenly believe that she wants to plot the succession of the emperor and intentionally move her away.
But Jiang Yun couldn't help it.
Besides Lü Zisu, perhaps the only one she could trust, the other three people would never believe her words.
Fortunately, in just three breaths, Lv Zisu had silently turned her body and dashed back towards where she had come from.
Although Lv Zisu and Jiang Yun had only known each other for a short time and didn't have any deep feelings for each other, Lv Zisu knew that she was able to survive Jin Yang's attack in the second round and avoid being eliminated, all thanks to the forbidden airspace seal that Jiang Yun had given her.
If there were no empty shells, I wouldn't have gotten to this third stage myself.
Moreover, even if he could continue to walk to the side of the Emperor's skeleton, he wouldn't be a match for the other three cultivators besides Jiang Yun.
Therefore, she felt that even if Ginger Cloud was deceiving her, it didn't matter. She could just consider it as repayment for Ginger Cloud's kindness.
In the darkness, the ever-hidden Emperor Hao watched Lu Zisu turn and leave. He suddenly turned his head to look at Jiang Yun, a ferocious expression appearing on his face!
And immediately following that, Xu Longxiang and the other two heard the voice of the Heavenly Emperor ringing in their ears: "A human cultivator is about to receive my inheritance. If you don't hurry up, the inheritance will belong to him!"
The three were naturally convinced by Hao Di's words, so one by one they mustered their strength and accelerated at full speed toward the Emperor's skeleton.
With Lü Zisu's departure, Jiang Yun could clearly feel that the power of the formation around him had indeed recovered somewhat.
His gaze fell once more upon the Emperor's skeleton!
"Boom!"
The Ancient Town Gun, without the slightest hesitation, pierced a second time into the jawbone of the skeleton which was tightly closed!
"Clang!"
The situation was almost identical to before. The Emperor's skeleton opened its jaws, clamping down on the spear tip of the Town Ancient Spear, and simultaneously raised its hand, grabbing hold of the Town Ancient Spear.
Gingercloud, who had been brewing for this moment, unleashed the full force of her power as soon as the Emperor's skeleton raised his hand. She strained every muscle, drawing out the Ancient Suppression Spear with all her might!
"Bang!"
The ancient town gun was pulled out!
Looking at the Emperor's skeleton, Jiang Yun coldly said, "Lu Zisu's departure strengthened the formation's power, weakening your strength. You can no longer hold the Ancient Spear as firmly as you did just now."
That means all my guesses were correct!
"So-called Emperor's lineage is all bull**. All five of us, no, it should be said that four of them, are just pawns to save you, the so-called emperor!"
A sharp glint appeared in Jiang Yun's eyes as he said, "I don't know why you let me, someone so superfluous, into this place, but I will make you understand the consequences of your actions!"
"We are not chess pieces, even if you are an emperor, you have no right to treat us as such."
As soon as his words fell, Jiang Yun's Ancient Suppressing Spear pierced out for the third time. Just like before, it directly targeted the mouth of the Emperor's skeleton.
"Clang!"
This time, the skeleton's mouth didn't open. The bullet head pierced through its tooth bone, causing a jolt that numbed Jiang Yun's palm instantly.
Let me in!
Looking at the skeleton raising its hand to grab the Town-Guarding Spear, Jiang Yun let out a deafening roar.
The ancient gun suddenly trembled violently, and a powerful force burst from its muzzle, forcefully smashing open the skeleton's jaw.
Under the tip of his gun, he once again picked up that jade tablet.
Of course, the skeletal hand still gripped the Ancient Spear's shaft as tightly as before, and this time, the force felt even stronger than before.
This is because the three Magicians are also about to arrive here.
And the fastest Xu Longxiang could even clearly see Jiang Yun holding a spear, facing off against the Emperor's Skeleton.
Under such frantic advance, the spiritual energy on the three of them was almost depleted, and the power of the formation naturally increased its consumption.
Looking at the skeleton's hand clutching the ancient spear tightly, Jiang Yun was well-prepared. He softly uttered two words from his mouth: "Immortality!"
From the center of Jiang Yun's brow, Huangquan surged forth, swirling around the Emperor's skeletal remains. In an instant, it caused the arm clutching the Ancient Suppressing Spear to slacken its grip, and the closed jawbone to open wide.
Once again, with a light flick of his ancient spear, Ginger Cloud Town's Ginger Cloud successfully retrieved the jade slip from the Emperor's skeletal jaw. It landed in his hand!ead, he continued his seclusion as before.Not until he saw that in three days it would be the day the three armies set out did he finally come out.Even with the Yin power absorbed by the Huntian Dao b...
