Chapter 88: Chapter 71: Immortals of the Tomb (Part 2)

’This is how it should be!’

’Something must have gone wrong just now.’

’Now, everything’s back to normal.’

It could devour the living soul of even a Grandmaster in a single gulp.

There was no way it shouldn’t be able to handle some unremarkable brat.

"You’re the one."

On the Burial Coffin.

The bloody eye’s gaze shifted, revealing a savage look as it locked onto Su Chen and tried to devour his soul once more.

The next instant.

It let out another miserable shriek.

"No!"

"AHH!"

Its eye was nearly burned blind!

Tears of blood streamed down.

’This member of the Human Race before me clearly has a mediocre aura, so what kind of monster is he! Wait, who’s the real Demon Fiend here?!’

The carriage stopped.

"This person was tailing me the whole way. How did he suddenly die?"

Su Chen found it rather sudden.

The battle had indeed ended.

Or rather,

it had never even begun.

"Whatever."

"May you rest in peace."

In the wind and rain, Su Chen skillfully dug a pit and buried the Second Grade expert.

「At this time.」

「In the Imperial Mausoleum.」

The path ahead had been cleared.

The true experts—the First and Second Grade cultivators—had long since vaulted over the obstructing boulders and surged toward the Imperial Mausoleum.

Only the Imperial Guard experts and a single First Grade cultivator remained at the camp to stop any Jianghu Heroes who might try to force their way through.

The Great Yu Imperial Mausoleum was dangerous, but it was also said to hold the legendary Immortal Fate—a path that transcended cultivation itself. No one in the Human World could resist coveting it.

’If they won’t let me in, I’ll just force my way through.’

Su Chen buried the Black Coffin, took out a refined corpse, dressed it in an Asura Robe, and headed for the Imperial Mausoleum.

The Tree Whiskers stirred.

Su Chen transformed from his Xu Ge disguise into another appearance.

A tall and slender figure.

An unruly expression.

Clad in black armor with a long saber at his waist, he now looked just like Black Armor Wun Sandao, the Double Second Grade cultivator Su Chen had cut down on the Jinjiang Tower Ship.

’This time, no one should be able to recognize me.’

With that said,

Su Chen’s figure flew forward. In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he crossed ten miles, charged the camp, and headed for the Imperial Mausoleum ahead.

"How audacious!"

"Trying to break through with force?"

"This is the Great Zhou World! Forcing your way in? You’re courting death."

Angry roars rang out.

A First Grade expert guarding the area unleashed a True Essence Hand Seal, pressing down on Su Chen in an act of Suppression.

He looked familiar.

He seemed to be one of the vanquished opponents from Heaven-Ascension Tower.

"An ant like you dares to block my path?"

Su Chen mimicked Wun Sandao’s unruly arrogance and laughed wildly. Gripping his saber’s hilt without drawing the blade, the sound of a saber’s cry echoed through the ten-mile camp.

BOOM!

The First Grade guard spat out blood, cutting a sorry figure.

The other experts in the camp were even more horrified.

"Sword Intent?"

"A Peak First Grade..."

True Intent could be the Heaven and Earth’s Will, or it could be the intent of a weapon. In some respects, the latter was even more difficult to achieve.

"Nothing more than this."

Su Chen laughed loudly, soared a hundred meters into the air, and followed the black-robed refined corpse over the obstructing mountain rocks, vanishing without a trace.

"Two Peak First Grade experts..."

"Where did they even come from?"

Everyone in the camp was terrified, their hearts pounding.

「Meanwhile.」

Deep in the mountain range, on a broken cliff, the various First Grade experts who had just joined forces to move a massive boulder and open the secret passage to the Imperial Mausoleum also sensed this Sword Intent and sneered.

"This ’oriole’ certainly has good timing, waiting for Long Xuanjun to go inside before trying to force his way through."

"He seems to really want the Immortal Fate in the Imperial Mausoleum."

"In that case."

"Let’s just make sure he stays in the Imperial Mausoleum forever."

"It’ll teach him that Great Zhou isn’t a place he can offend, even with the Supreme First Grade Long Xuanjun absent."

Led by the Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Seal, a group of over ten First Grade experts stood their ground. They included cultivators from the Seven Sects and the Great Zhou Noble Clans, and among them were three at the Peak First Grade.

With a lineup like this, who in the world couldn’t they stop?

They were full of confidence.

Black shadows whistled past.

Two figures, one after the other, headed straight for the Imperial Mausoleum’s entrance.

"You little thief! For defying the might of Great Zhou, leave your life with this one!"

The Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Seal cackled with sinister glee.

The next instant.

The black shadow shot past him, brushing by the massive, thirty-zhang-high boulder that all the First Grade experts had just struggled to move together.

BOOM!

The boulder that they could barely move and couldn’t even scratch, at this moment, seemed to have been grazed by a mere whisper of wind from the black-armored figure, and it exploded violently.

The expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

What was going on?

’Could he be at the Peak?’

’No.’

’Since when were Peak experts as common as cabbages? No one had ever heard of this person.’

’Besides.’

’Even a Peak expert might not be able to do that.’

’It would take someone like the Supreme First Grade Long Xuanjun to pull that off.’

’Damn it!’

’We’ve kicked an iron plate.’

The Chief Eunuch cursed inwardly and tried to dive into the crowd of First Grade experts.

However,

it was too late.

The other First Grade experts were scrambling over each other to run away, which instead exposed him—the Peak First Grade expert who had been standing at the very front like a leader.

"What did you say just now?"

Su Chen asked, turning his head to look at him.

"N-nothing..."

"Senior."

"This junior was just reminding you that this Imperial Mausoleum is dangerous. Please be careful, Senior."

Facing Su Chen, the Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Seal now wore a fawning, sycophantic smile, his words trembling uncontrollably.

"Is that so."

"You’re a surprisingly good person,"

Su Chen said.

WHOOSH!

Just as the Chief Eunuch was about to breathe a sigh of relief...

Su Chen kicked him off the cliff.

"No!"

This Peak First Grade expert wanted to resist, but facing the black-armored shadow, his True Essence and even the True Meaning of Heaven and Earth he had comprehended were frozen in fear, refusing to emerge from his body in the slightest.

"Does anyone else have a different opinion?"

As far as his gaze reached, no one dared to meet his eyes.

"No opinion."

"Please, Senior, go ahead! Please!" The crowd of First Grade experts shook their heads repeatedly and cleared a path.

Su Chen walked straight into the Imperial Mausoleum.

The torrential downpour, enough to make even a First Grade expert’s expression change, had no effect on the Imperial Mausoleum’s tomb chamber whatsoever.

Or perhaps,

it hadn’t been built as a tomb chamber at all.

’The shallow layer above is the Great Liang Imperial Mausoleum, and the deeper layer below is the Great Yu Imperial Mausoleum...’
