Zuan originally wanted to stop them, but the battle fluctuations at the Earth Immortal level made it difficult for others to get close.
In addition, they also had to guard against the terrifying suction force of the stone coffin in the middle, so they were a step slower and could only watch helplessly as the skull devoured the ghost.
Danzhu's screams stopped abruptly, and the skull made a swallowing motion.
It's clearly a skeleton, yet it seems to be enjoying something.
At this moment, the golden whips that had been rushing forward suddenly stopped and flew around the central stone coffin, as if they had lost their target.
At this moment, the stone coffin in the middle once again erupted with a terrifying suction force, seemingly devouring the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy).
This time, the golden whips of light did not lash out at it again; instead, they retracted back into the wall.
Yan Xuehen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly analyzed, "Judging from what that ghost just said, the power of these golden whips is obviously related to his father, Emperor Yao. This skull absorbed Danzhu's remnant soul, and now it has a trace of Danzhu's aura. These golden whips thought that the other party had the aura of his bloodline offspring, so they stopped attacking."
Yun Jianyue and Yu Yanluo were filled with admiration; this woman was indeed skilled in this art.
But this will cause problems later.
The Demon Emperor was filled with regret. He should have kept Danzhu's remnant soul; it hadn't helped much and had only caused so many complications.
Perhaps because the aftershocks of the battle with the Demon Emperor had damaged the runes on the wall, preventing the golden whips from returning to their proper positions, the skull on the stone platform opened its mouth and sucked in the golden whips like noodles.
The Demon Emperor and his son: "..."
The four from Zuan: "..."
You were supposed to seal this guy's existence away, so why didn't you even put up a fight when he just ate you?
Although Yan Xuehen had explained before that the stone platform was probably tainted by Danzhu's aura and was regarded as one of their own by the light whips, the shocking scene before my eyes was still hard to accept.
After absorbing all the golden light whips, a cracking sound suddenly came from the central stone platform, and some fine cracks could be vaguely seen on it. The next second, with a loud bang, the stone platform shattered into pieces, and a thick cloud of black gas appeared inside. The crystal skull flew into it, and soon, with it as the center, the black gas vaguely formed a human figure, exuding an extremely terrifying aura, which even made the Demon Emperor tremble.
Its entire form was shrouded in black mist, with only the crystal skull clearly visible. Its jaws opened and closed, emitting a piercing laugh that sounded like fingernails scraping against metal.
"Hahaha, I laugh at Emperor Yao's lack of strategy, I laugh at Yu the Great's lack of wisdom. They went to great lengths to arrange all this, but in the end, it benefited me instead. Emperor Yao's power, the taste is truly wonderful."
Zu An's heart sank. Those light whips were indeed the power of Emperor Yao. He must have left them here to seal the stone coffin back then. He never expected that Dan Zhu would appear here. In the end, these powers became the nourishment for the revival of the entity in the stone coffin.
Who exactly is inside this stone coffin, and why would Emperor Yao and Yu the Great join forces to seal it away?
There was a great emperor between the two, so where did Shun go?
If he hadn't witnessed Shun's remnant soul vanish into thin air, he might have even doubted whether this guy was Shun.
"Who exactly are you?" Zuan took a deep breath and asked directly.
Even if you're going to die, you should at least know why.
Even the Golden Crow Prince standing to the side couldn't help but admire him. In fact, he had never been so arrogant. He was the number one person of the demon race and had all kinds of magical treasures by his side. He had been invincible among his peers for so many years and had long established a solid confidence.
As for the times I lost to Zaun, it was all because the opponent ambushed me or used tricks, not because my strength was weaker than his.
But at that moment, he suddenly realized where the difference between him and him really lay.
Faced with the oppressive aura of this being, who was even more powerful than his father, he was already trembling and could barely stand, while the other party was able to calmly converse with him.
"My name... it seems I have been gone for so many years that the world has forgotten the illustrious name of Gonggong!" The crystal skull snorted, clearly displeased that this ant before him had never heard of him.
"Gonggong?" Zu'an exclaimed in shock. "The one who angrily struck Buzhou Mountain, causing the heavens and earth to collapse and flood the world, and then the goddess Nuwa had to come out to mend the sky?"
The crystal skull's expression visibly stiffened, and the billowing black aura around it also paused.
The anger from Gonggong has increased by 222...
Zuan was a little confused, thinking, "Isn't your name Gonggong? Why are you having such a strange reaction?"
At this moment, the white-robed young man smiled slightly and said, "You are referring to the first generation of Gonggong. Our lord is the last generation of Gonggong."
He is extremely ruthless and vicious in battle, and his skills are even highly poisonous water and fire. Yet, when he transforms into human form, he speaks politely, like a refined gentleman in a turbulent world.
Zuan couldn't help but admire his charm, thinking to himself that this kid was really handsome, almost as handsome as him.
"How should I address you, sir?"
"Brother?" The young man's expression stiffened, clearly unaccustomed to his opportunistic approach, but he wasn't annoyed. Instead, he replied, "My name is Xiang Liu. What's your name, young brother?"
Zu An cupped his hands in response to his name, but was filled with utter horror. Xiang Liu was the infamous beast from ancient legends, whose water was highly poisonous and could kill anyone who touched it. In addition, the blood spilled during battle could render a thousand miles around barren.
It's unbelievable that such a deadly poisoner would have such a handsome and refined appearance.
