Chapter 133: The Emperor's Scheme, the Double Calamity Dragon Head Array
Translator: OnGoingWhyEditor: Vermillion
”Stop what you're doing!” King Yu was furious! These people from the sects actually disobeyed his order!
However, the seventh grade skeleton made of the experts from the White Bone Palace completely ignored King Yu's shouts and its skeletal hand reached out for the coffin. The hollow eye sockets of the skeleton were filled with greed and yearning.
The eight Battle-Kings that were carrying the coffin were unable to endure the aura of a seventh grade Battle-Saint and their faces suddenly went red as they fell on one knee. The bronze coffin that they were carrying dropped onto the ground with a loud noise as well.
Don!
A dull and heavy sound resounded within the entire Gate of Heavenly Mystery. Everyone's action stopped as they subconsciously looked toward the fallen coffin.
” The coffin touched the ground… The funeral is ruined?! ”
The same thought flashed across everyone's mind and they could not help but have a somewhat mixed feeling. He was an outstanding emperor and yet his funeral was wrecked in the end.
King Yu's pupils constricted as anger welled up in his heart. True energy violently surged within his body as he angrily stared at that gigantic skeleton.
The aura emanating from Ji Chengxue became even stronger than before. With the help of the Phoenix Blood Herb, his cultivation level had already reached sixth grade Battle-Emperor. This was an unexpected surprise for him.
After forcing back the five women from the Joyous Union Sect with a palm strike, Ji Chengxue's expression was frosty as he shouted, ”You impudent rebels!”
The gigantic skeleton was startled for a moment and then became overjoyed. With a wave of its hand, it released a powerful wave of aura that swept the eight Battle-Kings to one side.
With a single step forward, it reached the bronze coffin. Its gaze was burning with desire as it stared at the bronze coffin and its skeletal arms were even somewhat trembling.
Within the coffin, it could feel the faint aura of something that it was longing for, the Death Soul Palace's semi-divine tool… the Departed Soul Orb!
Even though the White Bone Palace was on the same level as the Death Soul Palace, they did not possess a semi-divine tool. This had always been a thorn in their flesh. After the Death Soul Palace was destroyed in one go by Xiao Meng, their semi-divine tool was brought back to the imperial city as well.
The Departed Soul Orb had the functionality of appeasing souls and even prevent decomposition. It was the best funerary object.
Since Emperor Changfeng had obtained the Departed Soul Orb, it would definitely be used as a funerary object.
Xiao Meng was fighting a distance away with a sullen expression on his face. The simulacrum of the King of Hell being controlled by Hun Qianyun before him was rather powerful, so even he would need some time in order to deal with it. He watched as the gigantic skeleton was about to touch the coffin and the coldness in his eyes became even stronger.
A loud clang rang out.
A ray of light emanating from a sword seemed to have poured down from the highest point in the sky as it rapidly flew toward the gigantic skeleton and reached its target in a flash.
With a battle cry, a simulacrum of a phoenix appeared to be hovering over Ji Chengxue as he dashed forward and threw a punch toward the gigantic skeleton.
Both Xiao Yue and Ji Chengxue made their moves at the same time and utilized their strongest attacks in order to force back the gigantic skeleton.
”Hmph! How foolish!”
The gigantic skeleton stopped moving and then turned around. Its body suddenly trembled and countless amount of bone spears flew out, thrusting toward Ji Chengxue and Xiao Yue.
The sky-rending attack by Xiao Yue was blocked. He was only a sixth grade Battle-Emperor after all. He could only land on the ground.
Ji Chengxue smashed a single bone spear into pieces with his punch and landed on the ground as well. With the difference in their cultivation level, there was no chance for them to get any closer.
Bang!
The gigantic skeleton eerily smiled and then fiercely struck the coffin with its palm. Utilizing a tremendous force, it tried to pry open the coffin.
However, it soon discovered that something was wrong. Despite using all of its strength, it could not lift the coffin's lid by even a single inch!
