Chapter 853: Chapter 349: Divine Illusion Nightmare Prayer “There’s something that needs Brother Yu to see in person.” Li Changsheng nodded slightly: “I would like to ask Brother to make a trip to the Capital City and see the Dominating Martial King’s Tomb. What mystery is hidden within that tomb!” The Great Elder of the Heavenly Artifact Institute standing before him was not only the most top-tier Artifact Refiner in the world but also the most elite Talisman Formation Master. With the Great Elders of the Heavenly Talisman Institute and the Research Array Institute occupied elsewhere and not present, Yu Yunxiang was the foremost in talisman arrays within the Formless Divine Sect. Even the Great Elder of the Mage Institute, Zhi Feizi, was far less competent than this man. Yu Yunxiang’s expression shifted slightly upon hearing the words: “You have seen the Dominating Martial King’s Tomb? Is Qin Muge alive or dead?” “I have been, but I do not know if she is dead or alive.” Li Changsheng saw the doubt on his face and couldn’t help but smile wryly: “The Emperor positioned a troop of about ten thousand imperial guards near the Dominating Martial King’s Tomb to guard it, prohibiting strangers from approaching. The only thing I’m certain of is that there is definitely an issue inside the Dominating Martial King’s Tomb.” Yu Yunxiang, however, was momentarily dumbfounded: “The Emperor doesn’t let you see it, so you just don’t? And you still hold the Divine Illusion Sword.” Li Changsheng still considered himself invincible. “Of course, it’s not just the imperial guards. Can you guess what I saw at the Dominating Martial King’s Tomb?” Li Changsheng’s eyes gleamed with a strange light: “Corpse Kui!” Yu Yunxiang abruptly stood up, looking at Li Changsheng in disbelief: “How is that possible? Is it the Female Kinger? The Female Kinger in the Dominating Martial King’s Tomb?” The Corpse Kui is the corpse of a Kui Ox transformed. In the Ancient Era, Emperor Xuanhuang and the Warlord Li Tan clashed, contending for the position of the Human Emperor. The army under him was almost entirely annihilated by the torrential storms summoned by the Marquis of Wind and the Rain Master. Emperor Xuanhuang finally adopted the strategy suggested by Tai Chu Xuan Nu and slew a Kui Ox that was at the semi-Divine Rank. This was a kind of Divine Beast, entirely cyan-colored, hornless, with only a single hoof, capable of harnessing lightning and producing thunderous roars. Emperor Xuanhuang crafted its hide into a Thunder Drum and had his elder daughter, the Female Kinger with the ‘Divine Sun’ bloodline, wield this artifact, using boundless light and heat to break through the Marquis of Wind and the Rain Master. Later, the Female Kinger, while Emperor Xuanhuang campaigned north, was tainted by the corpse poison of the Heavenly Gaze, becoming the Corpse King Drought. She then resurrected the Kui Ox’s corpse, transforming it into the ‘Corpse Kui.’ This Corpse Kui was not only the mount of the Female Kinger but also her subordinate’s most potent force. Yu Yunxiang couldn’t fathom: “What exactly does Emperor Jianyuan want to do? He even collaborated with the Female Kinger, is he not afraid of a major drought near Wang’an City, desolating the land for miles?” “I too wish to know, which is why I want you to take a look.” Li Changsheng squinted his eyes: “At that time, I wanted to charge in, but thinking that if Muge is still alive, my forced entry might not be good for her, I held back.” Yu Yunxiang couldn’t help but feel admiration. As expected of Li Changsheng! This guy obviously holds the Divine Illusion Sword, yet he can still restrain himself. Yu Yunxiang furrowed his brows: “This matter, I will not refuse, but after all, I am not specialized in this path, my proficiency is limited. I’ll take a look first, if it’s not feasible, you’ll have to ask those two.” At this moment, the two heard a sudden buzzing from the direction of ‘Dao Yi Hall’. “What is this?” Yu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows in surprise: “Is it the Blood Vengeance Divine Blade? Quite a commotion, what does it want to do?” “What else? Chu Xisheng’s Vengeful Blade Intent has reached the Seventeenth Layer, qualifying him to nurture the Blood Vengeance Divine Blade and restore the true intent of the Divine Blade.” Li Changsheng chuckled: “The sword spirit of the Blood Vengeance Divine Blade must have sensed it.” Seeing the worry on Yu Yunxiang’s face, he waved his hand nonchalantly: “Rest assured, I’ve already made arrangements. For the next two months, those guarding the Divine Blade Platform will all be disciples from the Mage Institute. Additionally, to suppress delusions, I will be in seclusion at Dao Yi Hall for two months, and during that time, no unauthorized persons may approach.” Yu Yunxiang then visibly relaxed. He knew that the turmoil regarding the Blood Vengeance Divine Blade was suppressible. You cannot expect a vengeful spirit, who has been starving for nearly a thousand years, to still restrain itself upon seeing Chu Xisheng. ※※※※ When Chu Xisheng happily returned to Sky Wave Residence on the sword boat transformed by the Nine Luminaries Divine Wheel Sword, he ran into Ji Qianqian on the way. “Qianqian?” Chu Xisheng was somewhat surprised, looking Ji Qianqian up and down: “Not bad, your cultivation has improved again, you’re at Sixth Grade Upper now, right?” “Imperial Lord, you’ve returned?” Ji Qianqian also looked ‘surprised’, she clasped her fists and said: “I don’t know why, but recently I’ve awakened two more bloodline powers, and my cultivation speed has increased significantly, luckily advancing to Sixth Grade Upper.” Her apparent cultivation wasn’t the only thing that had improved. With her Primordial Skill and with her senior brother’s help, she had reached the Fourth Grade Lower in her realm. What troubled Ji Qianqian was that not long ago, her senior brother got seriously injured in a battle against Li Changsheng at the Imperial Palace. He was also reprimanded by the Emperor and had his salary docked. Her senior brother saw this as the greatest shame of his life. After instructing her to monitor Chu Xisheng’s movements, he went into closed-door training and hasn’t been heard from since. Ji Qianqian was somewhat worried. She feared her senior brother, provoked by Li Changsheng, might hastily break through to First Grade. This is extremely dangerous. Her master had recently mentioned that while her senior brother’s combat power was high, his accumulation in Primordial Skill and bloodline was relatively weak. “Oh?” Chu Xisheng mused, considering that Ji Qianqian’s character setting was likely modeled after Ye Zhiqiu. His mind stirred, and he was about to use the ‘Blackening Card (Fifth Grade)’ from his inventory on Ji Qianqian. But then, a prompt arose in his mind.
