Chapter 77 Father and Son Accompany Each Other in the Underworld
The aura of a Spirit Emperor Realm expert!
Huo Yun's expression changed immediately.
The Yue Kingdom is considered a medium-sized country in Qizhou. Within a medium-sized country like this, there are at most one or two Spirit Emperor Realm experts. The only Spirit Emperor Realm expert in the entire Yue Kingdom is the current King of Yue.
Who is this unfamiliar Spirit Emperor Realm aura?
This person seems to have ill intentions!
Huo Yun instinctively transmitted his voice to everyone, and immediately activated the palace's defensive array.
"Level One Alert! Activate defensive array!!"
Huo Yun's voice rang in the ears of all the palace guards, and the array masters immediately activated the palace's defensive array, layer upon layer of barriers enveloping the entire palace. The activation of these defensive barriers caused many who were unaware of what was happening to look up at the sky, wondering what had transpired.
The sky changed color, and a terrifying aura swept across the heavens and earth like a tsunami, causing everyone to tremble with fear. A red mist appeared in the sky, and within the red mist emerged a black figure.
It was a man dressed in a magnificent black robe. He wore a hideous mask, his black hair cascading down his back, revealing skin as white as jade. He was tall and slender, and the wide robe he wore gave him an air of transcendent nobility, as if a cold god had appeared here, coldly looking down on the human world.
Everyone stared at the man in black, their hearts pounding with fear. Who...who was he?
Gu Yan stood in the sky, with the eerie Ten Thousand Souls Banner floating behind him. He coldly looked at the defensive barrier that covered the entire palace, and with a thought, the face of Crown Prince Yue appeared on the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
Prince Yue's primordial spirit was locked inside the Myriad Soul Banner, but Gu Yan had not yet refined his soul.
The cultivation methods of Spirit Masters may seem similar to those of cultivators, especially in the early stages. However, closer examination reveals that these two cultivation methods are actually quite different. The differences become more pronounced as one progresses through the stages.
After reaching the Heavenly Spirit Realm, no Spirit Master in the Yunlan Continent develops a primordial spirit body similar to a Nascent Soul. Therefore, Gu Yan had never seen a Spirit Master use an escape technique similar to that of a Nascent Soul after their physical body was destroyed. However, the Yunlan Continent does have methods for re-forming a physical body after losing one.
If their primordial spirit is intact, they can condense a new physical body within ten to one hundred years.
Gu Yan did not refine the Crown Prince's primordial spirit, so the King of Yue did not sense the Crown Prince's condition. Now Gu Yan has released the Crown Prince's primordial spirit from the Myriad Soul Banner.
A misty green fog appeared on the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, from which chains gleaming with a bloodthirsty red light extended. These chains bound the wailing Crown Prince Yue, whose primordial spirit was partially visible above the banner, his neck and hands bound by chains. His wails echoed throughout the entire palace.
"Father, Father, save me!"
"This...this is His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"How could His Highness the Crown Prince...?"
Everyone in the palace was stunned and terrified when they saw the miserable state of the Crown Prince.
His Highness the Crown Prince had just angrily mustered his troops and left. They had all witnessed what had happened. Although they didn't know what had occurred, now that His Highness the Crown Prince was just a physical body, it was clear that all those who had gone with him were probably dead.
Those were ten Spirit King Realm experts, plus tens of thousands of troops, all of them elite.
All gone?
Who exactly is this person?
Which country's powerful figures are so arrogant and domineering?
High in the sky, Gu Yan stood with his arms crossed over his chest, patiently waiting.
boom!
An aura of the early stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm erupted from the depths of the palace, and a purplish-red light shot into the sky, stopping fifty feet away from Gu Yan.
This was a man dressed in a purple robe. He looked to be about fifty years old. He wore a crown on his head, and his robe was embroidered with dragon patterns. He was tall and robust, with deep-set eyes and high cheekbones, giving him a fierce and ruthless look.
King Gu Lan of Yue.
This person was none other than King Gulan of Yue.
"Father—"
Upon seeing his father, the chained Crown Prince of Yue was overjoyed and struggled to break free. The King of Yue, seeing his son's body destroyed, was filled with rage.
Although he was ruthless and violent, he was not without brains. His opponent was at the early stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm, just like him. He wondered if someone had instructed him to attack so openly.
"Who are you? I don't recall ever offending you," King Gu Lan of Yue said, staring at Gu Yan with a gloomy expression.
"So you are King Gu Lan of Yue, very good." After saying this, Gu Yan waved his hand, and the Crown Prince of Yue was dragged out of the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.
King Yue thought Gu Yan was going to release the prince, but to his surprise, Gu Yan picked up the Crown Prince and, right in front of him, set him ablaze with the Netherworld Fire. The eerie blue flames scorched the Crown Prince's soul, and his mournful screams sent chills down everyone's spines.
The King of Yue had no time to stop him, and only managed to call out, "My son—"
The Crown Prince of Yue vanished into thin air right before his eyes.
The King of Yue opened his eyes wide.
pain.
It was a pain that transcended the five senses and reached the very soul.
His sinister face was contorted with muscles and bulging veins. His eyes were bloodshot, the pupils narrowed into two pinpoint, purely dark holes, fixed intently on Gu Yan's figure.
Gu Yan added fuel to the fire, saying, "Sorry, I accidentally shattered your son's primordial spirit. By the way, I also sent your grandson, Gu Chengyang, on his way. They'll have company on their journey, so they won't be lonely."
What?!
The King of Yue was struck dumb.
"Okay...you're very good!"
A hoarse voice came from the King of Yue.
boom!
Centered on the King of Yue, the thick, ink-like, churning black energy exploded without warning. Spiderweb-like cracks appeared in the surrounding void, and the terrifying spiritual pressure of the early-stage Spirit Emperor realm caused everyone in the capital to tremble and cower in fear.
The King of Yue's eyes, now completely devoid of humanity, were terrifyingly red and bright.
"I will ensure you are never reincarnated!!!"
The black energy suddenly contracted inward, pouring back into the King of Yue's body. His clothes burst open, revealing dark purple veins writhing and expanding wildly beneath his exposed skin.
quack-
The bones creaked with a teeth-grinding sound as the King of Yue's figure grew taller and taller, with jagged bony protrusions piercing his skin on both sides of his head. Behind him, a bizarre and terrifying phantom of a demon god appeared, accompanied by countless wailing souls of the dead.
"Go to hell!"
The phantom of the demon god spewed out a terrifying gust of yin wind, within which were hundreds of millions of wailing undead. These undead had suffered endless torment in their lives, and they wanted to destroy everything. This yin wind blew towards Gu Yan, whose robes fluttered. Six beams of red light emerged from his body, transforming into six banners identical to the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
Seven Myriad Soul Banners stood behind Gu Yan like enormous screens, then circled around to her front. Gu Yan cast a series of spells, and the seven Myriad Soul Banners emitted a blinding crimson light, like a tide of blood.
The onrushing yin wind was swept up by the blood tide, and all the hundreds of millions of dead souls were actually taken away and absorbed into the seven Myriad Soul Banners, becoming Gu Yan's soul refinement.
