Chapter 3909: Opening Eight Gates (Cultivation)
intaining order inside Shi Tai Xuan looked at each other in bewilderment, unsure what was going on.However, they were extremely pleased to see this happen, so naturally they didn't stop it. Instead, t...Being inside the building, Gingercloud naturally heard the deafening booms and felt the intense shaking of the entire structure.
Although he didn't know what was happening outside, it wasn't hard to guess that someone was out there with Shao Shao and Mo Yun Ting, trying to open the building's door and let them all out.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
The gate in front of Jiang Yun also vibrated.
Just three breaths later, the door slowly creaked open, revealing a gap.
Seeing this crack, the expressions on the faces of the three people instantly lit up with excitement.
However, just at that moment, the moonlight that had already illuminated the entire building suddenly blazed with an intense light. The three people were stimulated and involuntarily closed their eyes together.
"Boom!"
Just then, the three of them heard another deafening boom in their ears, and their bodies sank heavily downward, as if the entire building had suddenly plunged deep into the earth.
Even the violent tremors ceased.
This gave Jiang Yun a sudden ominous feeling, and he hurriedly opened his eyes.
The dazzling light had dimmed once more, but the crack that had just opened in the imposing gate had also sealed shut again.
What surprised Jiang Yun even more was that Zhu Shao and Mo Yun Ting, who were originally so close to him, had vanished without a trace.
Only the ancient spear and the high-tension wire that he had always kept firmly in his hand still existed.
This bizarre sight made Jiang Yun's first thought that the moment he just closed his eyes, the door had already opened. And Zhu Shao and Mo Yunting naturally took the opportunity to rush out, but they didn't have time to take him with them.
As this thought arose, Gingercloud suddenly felt that there was someone behind him, staring at him.
"The Emperor!"
Jiang Yun had never considered himself a cowardly man, but at this moment, an undeniable fear welled up within him! Although Jiang Yun had lived a remarkable life in this world, encountering countless powerful individuals, he had yet to truly face a Great Emperor. Besides the Nightmare Beast that controlled the entire Zhutian Gathering Domain and the Causality Elder, he had never met another one.
...and contact with the Nightmare Beasts, was in reality not truly contact. At least the Nightmare Beast that appeared wasn't its true form.
Perhaps, it's not even considered a clone.
Because Ginger Cloud had already fought the other party, there was no Emperor's aura at all.
The old man's cause-and-effect reasoning also gave Jiang Yun a sense of world-weariness.
Even, Jiang Yun even suspected that he was probably only a quasi-emperor, or even a false emperor.
As for the other powerful individuals, whether they were Heavenly Guardians or his own grandfather, their strongest cultivation was only at the Quasi-Emperor realm.
Even the mysterious strongman known as Wàng Lǎo is definitely not a true Emperor.
But now, there was actually a true emperor standing behind him! The emperor's strength was unquestionable. Just from the Emperor You who had possessed Huangfu Jing just now, it could be seen.
Being stared at by an emperor, especially one who had just been negotiating with you, the pressure is something not everyone can handle.
However, despite the fear in his heart, Ginger Cloud gritted his teeth and resolutely turned around to face the direction behind him.
At the same moment he turned, he was also startled to discover that there wasn't a single person in the entire building.
Just now, all those cultivators who were staggering and unconscious have disappeared.
This also made him realize that it wasn't that Zhu Shao and Moyuntings were unrighteous for abandoning him, but that he and they had already been in different spaces.
That is to say, the moment he just closed his eyes, he was silently taken into another space without any feeling at all.
And the one who could achieve all this, of course, is none other than...the Emperor in front of us! Jiang Yun's gaze finally landed on a figure standing ahead.
It was strange, this figure was undeniably a physical presence, simply standing there. There was nothing around its body, yet Jiang Yun couldn't see the other person's face at all, unable to discern their gender.
It seems, the other party, as a whole, is like a chaotic mess, existing yet not existing.
However, Ginger Cloud could feel that the other party was also sizing her up.
Although Gingercloud didn't know how the other party planned to deal with her, her mind was racing, trying to figure out if there was any way she could save herself in this situation.
Meanwhile, the external Jiang Mu, although his hands still gripped the sword hilt tightly, his whole body's aura had weakened too much, clearly unable to draw the sword out anymore.
He could feel it more acutely than anyone else: within the structure, a powerful force that severed his own power directly, even cutting off the connection between his foot and himself.
This building, though it stands here physically, though its hands still firmly grasp the hilt of the sword, has been completely isolated. It is as if it exists in another space altogether.
This kind of supernatural art was already beyond his comprehension, so naturally, there was no way to crack it.
If he still harbored a glimmer of hope before that perhaps the one emerging from the Imperial Mausoleum wasn't the Emperor, now, that sliver of hope has been utterly extinguished.
Except for the emperor, no one else could do this so easily.
After all, the power he just used wasn't his own; it was also the power of Mirage! However, Jiang Mu didn't give up. He loosened his grip on the sword hilt and shouted, "Eight Gates, open!"
As soon as his voice fell, the first to react was Qiong Yu, the Spirit Clan City Lord who had been stationed above Zhú Jìng Yúan long ago! Qiong Yu raised her hand without hesitation and slapped towards the twenty-eight Mist Spirit clan members sitting cross-legged below with a single palm.
This palm strike wasn't meant to attack the Mist Spirit people, but rather she poured her own power into it as well.
"
Boom boom boom!
"
Just then, above the heads of the twenty-eight people, a phantom gate tens of thousands of zhang high faintly appeared in the sky.
After Qiong Yu's palm strike, the door slowly creaked open toward both sides! Besides this place, seven other illusory giant doors appeared in the sky above in seven different directions.
And that is the magic of this Eight Gates Formation.
The power of the inner and outer Eight Gates is interconnected! Although the inner and outer gates are always closed, once the outer gate opens, it can absorb the power of the inner gate. In turn, it can still form a great Eight Gates formation to continue suppressing the Emperor's Tomb.
However, if he did this, all eight gates would be completely abandoned. Therefore, Jiang Mu could never do such a thing unless it was absolutely necessary.
As all eight gates were opened, above the sky, eight gigantic doors appeared, surrounding the sword-shaped building. The Eight Gates Formation was once again complete.
Although the eight gates had been opened, ginger Mu's face showed no relaxation whatsoever.
Because that emperor, besides severing the connection between the sword-shaped building and the outside world, did not make any further moves.
But once the other party wants to leave the building, then these eight gates formation, whether it can stop the opponent, is simply unknown.
Moreover, within the building are also numerous cultivators from the Zhushao and Moyunting factions, as well as a large number of ordinary cultivators! Therefore, after a moment's contemplation, Jiang Mu once again spoke: "Shen, I'll leave this place to you for now. If it's not possible, don't fight against them, just leave as soon as possible and abandon this place!"
A voice that only Ginger Mu could hear immediately rang out, "If you go in, you will almost certainly die!"
Ginger Mu nodded slightly and said, "I know, but Shao Shao and Mo Yun Ting are both people who have the potential to become emperors."
"If we let them die inside, that would be an unimaginable loss for us!"
"Don't worry, I'll be careful!"
Just as Jiang Mu was about to charge into the building, risking everything to save Zhu Shao and Mo Yun Ting, his body suddenly stiffened. A powerful force descended from the heavens, enveloping him and rendering him immobile.
Feeling this power that was all too familiar to him, Jiang Mu couldn't help but blurt out, "Ancestor!" of the Imperial Mausoleum"But one thing is certain, the Emperor's Tomb incident knew that the gap needed to be healed before it happened. That's why they were able to retrieve all the Emperor Ghosts...
