Chapter 1080 (2/2)
Yinyu alone was saved by Shiyue. Those officials by his side weren’t so lucky and were captured.
Gao Ruo was one of them.
“Did Grand Teacher Zhongxuan know about where the tomb was at?”
Gao Ruo’s face was ashen white. He pursed his lips and didn’t dare to make a sound. His eyes were cold and defiant as he looked above. He didn’t fear anything at all.
“You really are loyal!”
Zong Shou was unsurprised. Since Yinyu was praised as someone who helped Great Gan to rise up, he had many helpers. If he wasn’t able to gain the loyalty of those under him, how would he turn the tides that year?
Even if he was tortured and locked this person up, he wouldn’t be able to get anything.
Only if he directly soul searched would he be able to find memories regarding the tomb.
However, when he asked that he actually didn’t plan to get anything out of Gao Ruo.
He only needed to know what Emperor Yuanchen and Zhongxuan were planning.
He took the jade letter and thought about it for a moment. Zhang Huai was also distracted at the side.
“Official Zhang, I know that you are one of the descendants of Zhang Liang. Do you know something about the Qin Emperor Tomb?”
Zhang Huai was startled when he heard that and then he laughed helplessly. The thing he thought about just now was not connected to the tomb but was him trying to convince Zong Shou to let people call him Emperor.
At noon when the hundreds of thousands of soldiers called him that he rejected them. The failure of the matter made him really annoyed.
However, he did know something about the Qin Emperor tomb. The problem was how did Ruler know that he was a descendant of Zhang Liang?
“The Qin Emperor always calls himself the top Ruler of the Cloud World. How could he have a normal tomb? People don’t know where it is but Zhang Huai’s senior had found out where it was after searching several times. It is at East Kunlun Mountain.”
“East Kunlun?”
Zong Shou’s brow rose up, thinking to himself that it was really possible.
West Kunlun was the top giant mountain during the Cloud Desolate Era. At the end of the Cloud Desolate Era someone smashed it with a palm. In the future, the Central Cloud Continent was heavily damaged and the geography changed. Who knew where the tomb was now?
With the pride of that Qin Emperor, only the legendary pinnacle land would be worth burying him there.
Zong Shou had read all sorts of books and the place where East Kunlun was at most probably already sunk.
This was problematic. Even if he knew that it was East Kunlin, he didn’t know the specific location.
He cursed out. In the ancient times, those experts really were inhumane. Why did they have to break apart such a Cloud Continent?
However, the collapse of it started ten thousand years ago and ended eight thousand years ago when that huge situation occurred. It probably had a connection to the death of Xi Zi.
“Where it is at now, I am unsure. However, it is okay. Someone told me before that the tomb would appear twelve years later.”
When he said that, his eyes flickered and a serious expression appeared in his eyes.
“I heard that although Zhongxuan came from the Taoist Faction, he obtained a portion of the legacy of the ancient Qi Cultivators. A part of the mechanism within was made by the Mohists and the Qi Cultivators. Whether or not this person could enter early was tough to say…”
If that was the case, then it would be a little problematic.
Great Qin gathered all sorts of god metals to create those twelve copper men.
Each one of them had the ability to fight against Peak Saint Realm experts.
Legend had it that even End Realm Saint Venerables wouldn’t be able to smash their bodies.
If the twelve of them formed a formation, they would be able to counter End Realm experts.
This was why the Qin Emperor was able to suppress the three factions.
If such an End Treasure fell to Great Shang, it could allow them to rise up.
Be it whether or not this jade letter was real or fake, Great Gan couldn’t take the risk.
Without hesitating, Zhang Huai sent out a talisman. It burned and then his expression worsened.
Before Zong Shou asked, he had already spoken up, “That Great Shang Grand Teacher is still not dead. The Qi Cultivator’s skills are really amazing!”
Zong Shou was shocked. That Zhongxuan faced the recoil of the Heaven Path and then the Qilin smacked it and he still didn’t die?
Was it an incarnation too? It didn’t look like it?
However, there was no need to be curious about it as he could just ask Gao Ruo.
“This thing is connected with your emperor. However, I just need to investigate a little and I would be able to find out. If you want to save your life, then don’t hide anything!”
That Gao Ruo hesitated a little and when Zong Shou was about to grab over like he was going to scour his soul, he hurriedly said, “I don’t know, I only heard that he cultivated a soul splitting technique that can make dozens of incarnations.”
