It actually had a spurious smile, as though it knew Xu Qing and Erniu’s thoughts like the back of its hand.
It wasn’t surprised by the appearance of this large hand at all. Instead, it charged over with its partner and ruthlessly collided with the hand.
The large hand shook as though it was afraid and began to retract.
The two heads emitted a ferocious aura and charged into that mountain, breaking through the soil and rushing in.
Seeing this, Xu Qing and Er Niu did not hesitate and sped off at full speed, taking advantage of this moment to move swiftly.
Those small heads wanted to stop them but they were much slower than the two of them. Very soon, Xu Qing and Erniu disappeared into the horizon.
They fled for fifteen minutes without stopping and at full speed.
However, at the next moment, a familiar pressure descended.
The huge head appeared in front of the two of them again. It first looked at the graves on the ground before looking at the two of them with a spurious smile.
Xu Qing and Erniu stopped in their tracks, their scalps turning numb.
At the same time, the large head’s family members also caught up and surrounded the two of them.
While his heart was pounding, Xu Qing suddenly spoke seriously.
“There are more corpses here.”
Erniu also nodded rapidly, revealing a fawning expression.
“That’s right, that’s right. We were not escaping but exploring places with more corpses. This place is very good.”
As he spoke, he didn’t hesitate at all and immediately started summoning with Xu Qing.
At the next instant, the ground rumbled and the graves collapsed one after another. A large number of corpses indeed crawled out and became food, causing the anger of this family to somewhat subside.
As for Xu Qing and Erniu, they only felt more helpless. They didn’t dare to have any other thoughts in the short term and could only try their best to summon the corpses.
But sometimes, when one intentionally tried to create an accident, it did not succeed. Yet, often, it was the unintentional actions that brought about unexpected events.
At that moment, as they continued to summon, there were fewer and fewer corpses. Just as they were about to give up, a loud shout suddenly rang out from the ground.
“Who is disturbing this old man’s cultivation?!”
As the sound rang out, the ground rumbled and countless soil splattered in all directions, forming a huge vortex.
An old man walked out of the vortex with a cold expression.
This old man was one of the cultivators from the West Demon Feather.
To be able to form such an aura, it was obvious that he was the same as the old woman who had been killed by the Yun family’s ancestor, a Ruler.
His authority was related to death, so after entering the Rain World and sensing the dense aura of death here, he was elated.
For him, this was the best place to cultivate.
Hence, he chose an underground place to meditate and absorb the death energy.
Just now, when he was absorbing, he felt that something was amiss. Only then did he walk out coldly.
When Xu Qing and Erniu saw him, their expressions instantly became strange. As the old man’s voice echoed, his footsteps suddenly paused and his countenance instantly turned pale. He saw Xu Qing and Erniu and recognized their ident.i.ties but he wasn’t in the mood to care. This was because he saw a group of terrifying heads behind the two of them.
His heart skipped a beat. Previously, when he was underground, he didn’t sense these terrifying things. He only sensed Xu Qing and Erniu.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to walk out.
But now… his heart started racing and his breathing also became hurried.
This was because the gazes of the head’s family were all on him.
This scene caused Erniu’s eyes to light up. He suddenly felt that his current situation wasn’t that bad. Hence, he raised his chin and calmly spoke.
“Who’s barking?”
When the old man heard this, he was furious but he could only hold it in. He cautiously stared at the two huge heads and tried to retreat.
“And what is the dog barking?”
How could Erniu give up on such an opportunity? He looked proudly at the Ruler.
The old man was aggrieved. In his entire life, he had never experienced being addressed like this. He gritted his teeth inwardly but he was helpless. Just as he continued to try to retreat, Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and suddenly spoke. “Leave your storage bag!”
The old man’s expression darkened. At the same time, the pressure from the large head erupted.
Faced with such pressure, the old man’s heart trembled. He endured his grievances and took out his storage bag. After placing it to the side, he retreated.
Erniu licked his lips and immediately spoke.
“Leave the bracelet, leave your hairpin, and your belt as well, it is a treasure too.”
“By the way, leave the jade pendant.”
“The robe isn’t bad either. Take it off!”
When the old man heard this, he was furious and shouted.
An even louder roar rang out from the mouth of the large head behind Xu Qing and Erniu.
The old man was so aggrieved that his entire body trembled. He gritted his teeth and took off the bracelet, hairpin, belt, jade pendant, and outer robe… before fleeing rapidly.
The large head lazily swept its gaze over but didn’t pursue. As for the things the old man left behind, it didn’t take them away either. Instead, it turned its head and continued eating.
Xu Qing and Erniu felt some regret in their hearts.
However, their harvest was also very great. They quickly kept the items and looked at each other.
“This family is quite good.”
At the same time, in the depths of the Rain World that was filled with graveyards, there was a shocking mountain that towered into the clouds.
This mountain was also a grave.
The mountain was silent, with only the Empress walking through the core burial chamber of the great tomb within the mountain.
Countless corpses in the surroundings were turning into ashes, and it was the same for the huge coffin in the middle. Even the terrifying being inside the coffin, which hadn’t yet revived, was eternally dissipating.
The Empress was expressionless as She walked to the end of the chamber.
There was a stone gate there.
The Empress’ gaze seemed to be able to penetrate it.
It was an even more majestic underground chamber.
The underground chamber was filled with bones, piled up like the sea.
At the center, an altar formed by corpses was formed.
On the altar sat a corpse that shone with silver light.
Immortal energy spread out from its body, emitting the pressure of a Great Emperor.
Unfortunately, it had already died.
Inheritance marks of various colors floated around it. The fluctuations from them were powerful and every mark contained an extraordinary divine ability.
At the same time, there were also Dao marks that were faintly discernible. These Dao marks were all formed by authorities and contained terrifying might. There were also Great Emperor’s treasures that flickered with light, hibernating here.
Any item placed outside would be enough to make Rulers go crazy.
In particular, there was a black crystal in the hands of the corpse. Fog lingered in it, faintly revealing the face of the Demon Feather Great Emperor!
Around the chamber were eight huge and sealed stone gates. It seemed that these were the eight entrances that led to this place.
At that moment, the Empress was standing behind one of the stone gates.
She didn’t immediately push open the stone gate. Instead, after staring at it for a moment, a look of contemplation appeared in Her eyes.
“The inheritance marks are real, so are the Dao marks of authorities. Those treasures are also real.”
“As for this immortal skeleton, it indeed matches the aura of Nether Flame.”
“The corpses around also perished due to their life force being drained, consistent with the state of Nether Flame’s seclusion.”
The Empress’ gaze landed on the black crystal on the withered hands of the skeleton.
“That’s the life soul of this generation’s Demon Feather Great Emperor that was taken away by the Nether Flame during his peak. Whoever possesses it will control the fate of the Demon Feather Great Emperor, and it is now the most coveted object for him to reclaim..”
