Divine Brilliance

With the Spiritual Formation obstructing, Zong Shou’s Spiritual Sense wasn’t able to reach far. However, he could hear the sound of weapons clashing and spells exploding.

This was the part where Zong Shou was at a loss. Even with the King Path Martial Arts, his combat strength was comparable to Saint Realm but his Spiritual Sense was far weaker. Most of the time he would be restricted by it.

Who was it that actually entered the main tomb faster than him?

He hesitated for a bit and let the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle head down a side path.

The passages in the tunnel were connected all over and there was more than one path to the main tomb room.

He wasn’t in a rush to meet with those people and also wasn’t willing to clash with them before he saw the twelve copper men.

Actually, the more people who entered the main tomb, the better. The more experts there were, the more pressure was on the main formation within the tomb.

He only grasped a portion of the mysteries of the tomb, even when he had gotten the Spiritual Formation blueprint.

Even this 10-20% made him terrified.

If one entered too early, he would just be asking to die.

His current goal was another place within the main tomb. It was a treasury that stored items to the side.

After dashing for a moment, Zong Shou let the turtle stop with a serious expression.

He heard an orderly explosion in the passageway ahead.

It was like tens of thousands of horse hooves stepping on the ground, causing it to shake continuously.

Just as Zong Shou was hesitating whether or not to order the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle to retreat and walk another passage, a shout spread out from ahead.

“Who dares to intrude the tomb?”

The voice was really majestic, causing one’s eardrums to hurt. That galloping sound also picked up speed.

In just two breaths, an Iron Cavalry wave charged over from in front of him.

300 cavalry traveled together in a line and blocked the entire passageway. Looking out, it was like they were endless.

They were all dressed in black robes and black armor, giving off a cold aura of death. Their aura was very vast, surpassing all the Xuan Grade Dao Soldiers that Zong Shou had seen before.

The one who was at the front rode a 30-foot high giant beast, and he looked more muscular than an ordinary person. He was wearing armor that was covered in spikes, holding a giant ax and a chain hammer by his waist. His cold gaze spread out from his armor as he looked over.

“Who dares to disturb the rest of His Majesty, slay him! Die!”

He dashed over and slashed down with the hammer, startling the five people on the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle.

The black-armored cavalry was at most God Realm, but along with the tens of thousands of iron cavalry behind him, the strength of the ax was even far above that of Saint Realm!

“Brother, please help me!”

He knew that the turtle wouldn’t be able to block the ax. Zong Shou didn’t even think, the God Refined Sword slashed out from his sleeves, spurting out many streaks of sword energy which bloomed like a lotus. They blocked in front of them in many layers.

One Origin Yin Sword!

Within 100 feet, that is my invincible sword domain!

The lotus that was formed was broken layer by layer and the ax continued to slash in.

However, when it was 100 feet away, it stopped. Sword shadows broke out and filled the 100-foot space. It smacked back and defended against the ax.

Blood seeped out from the corner of Zong Shou’s lips. Luckily, the Jade Puppet had taken out a small Jade Bow and fired three shots at the black-armored cavalry.

“Mohist Jade Puppet? What small tricks are these?”

The latter scoffed and retracted the ax light. With a small change the three arrows were broken. It was very simple like it didn’t use any strength at all.

Zong Shou sucked in a deep cold breath when he saw that. Such an opponent was something that even if the five of them worked together, they might not be able to win against.

“Leave!”

Without needing him to instruct it, the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle started to flee.

In just an instant, it was 100,000 feet away and outside of the tunnel.

The black cavalry muttered, “Since I am dead, how can you all live? Die!”

The tens of thousands of cavalry dashed forwards. Spiritual light shone from all around.

They themselves weren’t moving that quickly but with the buff of the formation, it was far above the speed of the turtle.

The tunnel all around, there was the sound of horse hooves.

“Damn it! We can’t escape!”

Yuan Wushang’s face was ashen white, “Damm. Their speed is actually faster than if I went all out.”

Zong Shou frowned. Even if their movement speed was quick, it still wasn’t a solution.

The passageways were already blocked up by the black-armored Iron Cavalry.

Did they have to fight here?

To suffer injuries the moment they just entered. They were going to have to use their trump cards so early?

“So that is why I said that I would be able to help lover…”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and looked around calmly, “Can you use illusionary techniques to hide us?”

Zong Shou was stunned, would illusions work in this place?

The Yin Energy wrapped around their bodies, if the Iron Cavalry were willing, they would be able to easily break the illusions.

However, he could just try it, anyway at most they would just fight in the end.

He told the Xuan Turtle to float up and head closer to the rooftop. A blood glow flashed in Zong Shou’s eyes. At the same time, the green illusionary mirror appeared behind his head.

In just that moment, an illusionary technique covered over all of them. He used the World Burning Blood Eyes to control space to form many layers to block off their aura.

“As expected from the Nine Tail Xuan Fox, lover’s illusions are really amazing, so why don’t you use it usually? Such a waste…”

Su Xiaoxiao used the fan to cover her face as she giggled. Many spiritual patterns gathered towards the outside.

A ring appeared behind Su Xiaoxiao.

Zong Shou felt really annoyed and nervous as he focused on the movement of the cavalry. However, for some reason, after Su Xiaoxiao used that technique he felt at ease.

“That is the Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique? How overbearing…”

To be able to make the enemy not have any fighting intent, to not feel anger. But it could also make one go insane right away.

What was more shocking was that the black cavalry actually didn’t notice the five of them and the turtle.

Even the one wielding the huge ax only looked over suspiciously before not bothering. It allowed tens of thousands of cavalry to turn toward another tunnel.

Zong Shou found it weird, that fellow definitely noticed that there was something up with this place.

After all, that person had an obvious connection with the formation of the tomb.

With just a thought, he would be able to notice where they were.

However, it was as if nothing had happened.

When the area calmed back down, the horse hoof sounds slowly disappeared.

Zong Shou dissipated his illusionary technique with a weird expression. The other three all looked toward Su Xiaoxiao with weird expressions.

Zong Shou and Yuan Wushang guessed a little while Chuxue was totally confused.

“Don’t underestimate my technique. Joy, rage, worry, fear, love, desire, grievance, hatred are all within the seven emotions.”

She muttered, “These people have been buried with the Emperor which is why they hate people who are alive! Since they have those thoughts, no matter if they are saints or dead, they are under my control.”

Chuxue was annoyed with how delighted she got, she pouted and didn’t bother anymore.

Shen Yuexuan sighed, “I finally understood where the 300,000 Great Qin Cavalry went and why they disappeared.”

The four people here were shocked when they heard that.

Just now they saw how strong the Great Qin Iron Cavalry were. As expected from the top Xuan Grade Dao Soldiers in this world.

Unfortunately, the Qin Emperor’s lifespan was too short. Without the power of the 12 Copper Men and the hundreds of thousands of cavalry, he might not have been able to sweep many worlds to form another Sky Burning Saint Dynasty…

Yuan Wushang said with a mocking tone, “Even when he died, he didn’t leave his army to his descendants. This Emperor really thought he had a chance to revive and sweep the Cloud World! I heard that the Prince was smart and trusted by the people, but after the Qin Emperor died he was assassinated. It seems like it might have been an order by him. Qin became strong because of him and died because of him too.”

Zong Shou broke into a laugh. However, he had to admit that what Yuan Wushang said made sense.

The Qin Emperor Tomb was still built for a few years after the Emperor died and only stopped when the war started all around.

If the prince took over, it wouldn’t continue.

However, it was no use thinking about all this and what he was more concerned about now was what he had to do next.

“My King Path Martial Arts can only work 10% here. Entering the tomb is like entering an enemy country?”

He felt really fortunate. Thanks to the Thousand Eye Blood Stone, he was able to get to late Celestial Realm and formed three threads of Celestial Power.

With one more life-saving trump card, otherwise, it would be 100 times more dangerous in here!

He had a weird feeling. From the start, there was an evil intent that wrapped around him. The deeper he got, the more uneasy he felt.

“Someone has got their eyes on me?”

Zong Shou frowned. He glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and didn’t notice anything weird.

He thought about it and he smashed a black jade piece.

A black glow scattered and covered them.

Su Xiaoxiao was curious and asked, “What is this?”

“A piece of ink jade that my country Father in Law gave…”

Zong Shou didn’t bother to hide and said openly, “He said that it was nurtured by his Spiritual Sense and true words for 49 days. With it around the body, for three days, most evil techniques can be blocked.”

Su Xiaoxiao acknowledged and knew that Kong Rui was one of the top divinators in the world.

She didn’t bother to block and allowed the dust to fall on herself.

At the same time, a person dozens of tunnels out frowned.

The Spiritual Sense connection was actually broken?
