The once trembling burial realm fell silent once more.
The Six Seals of the Forbidden Immortals, while not capable of sealing the burial realm forever, could at least maintain the seal for several decades or even hundreds of years without issue.
For cultivators, several decades or even hundreds of years is still not considered long.
By that time, Jun Xiaoyao's cultivation level would likely have reached an extremely terrifying stage.
When the time comes, sweeping through the burial realm would be a simple task.
Thus, Jun Xiaoyao did not care if the sealing time was too short.
As long as he was given time, even if the burial realm broke free from its seal, he would still be able to suppress everything.
Seeing the burial realm sealed once again, those burial beings who had previously escaped felt a mix of emotions.
Who would have thought that the burial realm, which was destined to break free, would once again be sealed by Jun Xiaoyao alone?
He accomplished what his father had once achieved.
A tiger father does not raise a dog son; this saying holds true!
"Young Master's methods are truly admirable!" Li Xin clasped his hands in respect, genuinely impressed.
Although Li Xin had agreed before, he had harbored some doubts in his heart.
However, now, all questions had vanished into thin air.
"There's no need for such praise. This sealing of the burial realm was not accomplished by me alone, but with the help of all of you," Jun Xiaoyao did not take all the credit for himself.
With the crisis averted and the burial realm sealed, Jun Xiaoyao also obtained the Nine Wonders Rebirth Immortal Grass.
This journey to the Eternal Burial Soil had come to a perfect conclusion.
Jun Xiaoyao's goals had all been achieved.
However, Jun Xiaoyao did not plan to leave immediately; instead, he intended to digest the great opportunity presented by the Cycle Pool of All Beings.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao inquired about Li Xin and the others' thoughts.
Li Xin still wished to continue guarding the Tomb of All Spirits.
Jun Xiaoyao did not advise against it; this was a sign of Li Xin's loyalty.
Moreover, the burial realm indeed needed a strong guardian, so that if any issues arose, they could respond promptly.
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze turned towards the depths of the burial realm.
Although Li Xin had not explicitly told him the secrets of the burial realm, Jun Xiaoyao seemed to see the time when his father, the God King Jun Wuhui, swept through the burial realm, battling the great terrors within.
Jun Xiaoyao was indeed very strong now, but he was only invincible among the younger generation.
What Jun Xiaoyao needed to do next was to gradually surpass his peers and even compete with the older generation of strong cultivators.
"One day, I will enter the depths of the burial realm and confront those great terrors."
"And the reasons behind the creation of the Eternal Burial Soil, as well as why my father sealed the burial realm, these secrets I will uncover one day," Jun Xiaoyao vowed in his heart.
With his current strength, even if he learned the secrets of the burial realm, he would not be able to help Jun Wuhui.
Thus, becoming stronger was the only thing Jun Xiaoyao needed to focus on.
After the burial realm was sealed, the burial beings outside did not leave; they remained immersed in shock.
Lang Huan, on the other hand, wore a self-deprecating smile.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Qin Xian'er noticed and asked with concern.
"Xian'er, I once thought I was worthy of Jun Gongzi, but now it seems I was indeed overestimating myself," Lang Huan said with a bitter smile and a shake of her head.
It was hard to imagine that Lang Huan, who held an incredibly noble status and ranked second on the Burial Soil Beauty List, could say such a thing.
Qin Xian'er wanted to comfort her but found that the reality seemed to be just as Lang Huan said.
Jun Xiaoyao's excellence left them in the dust.
Meanwhile, Jun Xiaoyao prepared to enter the Cycle Pool of All Beings for cultivation.
However, before that, he looked towards the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress.
Previously, the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress had mentioned wanting to talk to him.
Seeing Jun Xiaoyao's gaze, the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress turned and walked into the distance.
Jun Xiaoyao followed her.
Li Xin and A Jiu naturally understood and did not ask anything.
In a quiet place, the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress came to a halt.
Jun Xiaoyao also stopped.
"I am very curious, who exactly are you?" the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress said, her back to Jun Xiaoyao, her voice soft.
The female burial empress wore a black dress, her figure tall and slender, like a mysterious and exquisite black rose.
"Jun Xiaoyao," Jun Xiaoyao replied clearly.
"Really?" the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress asked.
"Otherwise?" Jun Xiaoyao responded.
"I awakened from my slumber as a peak Burial Empress, but in my memories, there are some images. Are they from my past life or something else?" the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress inquired.
Jun Xiaoyao was also somewhat unclear about the relationship between the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress and the previous Ghost-Faced Maiden and Ghost-Faced Woman.
However, there was one commonality: they could all wield the power of the Other Shore Flower.
And the Other Shore Flower reminded Jun Xiaoyao of the foreign realm.
It was rumored that in the foreign realm, there was an imperial clan called the Other Shore Clan, which was a plant-based force whose essence was the Other Shore Flower blooming in the Yellow Springs.
However, Jun Xiaoyao did not know much about the foreign realm, so he could not draw any conclusions.
"Fate intertwines, truth and falsehood are unclear. I, Jun, do not know, but I promise that if I uncover the truth in the future, I will definitely come to find you," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Since the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress had extended a helping hand, Jun Xiaoyao would naturally reciprocate.
If he learned the truth about the Ghost-Faced Maiden in the future, he would certainly inform her.
"Well... but I have one more... request," the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress suddenly spoke.
Her tone was slightly unnatural, hesitant, as if lacking some of the previous coldness and aloofness.
"What is it?" Jun Xiaoyao asked, puzzled.
The Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress's tone seemed off.
"Could you... hug me?"
When the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress said this, she still had her back to Jun Xiaoyao.
But her slightly trembling voice revealed the unrest in her heart.
Jun Xiaoyao was taken aback.
He never expected that the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress would make such a request.
What kind of existence was the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress?
The strongest being in the Ten Domains of Burial Soil, a noble and cold Ice Mountain Empress.
She was a figure that all men in the Ten Domains of Burial Soil both feared and admired.
Yet this ruthless Ice Mountain Empress would ask for a hug?
That was quite a contrast.
If the other burial beings saw this scene, they would probably question their lives.
Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but think that the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress might truly be an ice-cold tsundere.
"If you don't want to, then forget it," the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress said, moving to leave.
"Wait," Jun Xiaoyao called out.
The female burial empress halted.
"Since the empress is willing to lend a hand, I, Jun, am grateful. This matter is merely a small favor," Jun Xiaoyao said.
As long as she didn't covet his body, he was fine with anything.
A hug wouldn't lead to pregnancy.
Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward, hesitated slightly, but still gently wrapped his arms around the female burial empress's waist.
If it were anyone else, having the chance to get close to the female burial empress would likely excite them immensely, perhaps even making them unable to control their hands.
But Jun Xiaoyao's expression was calm, showing no signs of excitement.
The female burial empress's body was very cold, like a block of ice.
As Jun Xiaoyao held her, her jade-like body trembled slightly, as if electrified.
A wave of warmth, long forgotten in his memories, spread out.
However, the next moment, Jun Xiaoyao released his hold.
Deep inside the female burial empress, there was an inexplicable sense of loss.
But she still said, "Thank you."
"Yes, once I learn the truth in the future, I will come to find you again," Jun Xiaoyao said as he turned to leave, showing no signs of reluctance.
After a long while, the Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress let out a soft sigh.
One of her jade hands slightly lifted the ghost mask on her face, revealing a corner of her beautiful visage, which had already turned rosy.
The Ghost-Faced Female Burial Empress could also blush.
"The Other Shore Flower blooms in seven colors, the flowers fall and become immortal for a thousand years. I do not wish to become immortal; I only wish to wait for your return in the vast red dust..."
The female burial empress put the ghost mask back on, and with a movement, she vanished without a trace.
