Chapter 5022 Three Divine Corpses
The ancient coffin crashed onto the plaza with a thunderous sound, causing the entire Xuanwu Seat floating island to tremble. Many cultivators who were relatively close to the plaza were so frightened that they quickly fled.
Many fine cracks appeared on the square.
If it weren't for the array of protective formations, the entire floating island would probably have been reduced to dust by now!
Countless gazes turned toward the three ancient coffins.
Even Su Bai frowned, his gaze following the others as they turned to the three ancient coffins.
The coffin lid was blown off by an invisible force, revealing the scene inside to everyone's view.
Inside the three ancient coffins were three divine corpses at the God Realm who still possessed divine power!
Moreover, the Dao essence of the Immortal Realm remained on all three divine corpses!
hiss! !
Countless gasps of astonishment rang out.
These are undoubtedly three first-tier deities who were just killed!
However, the bodies of these three people were severely mutilated, which shows the inhuman treatment they had suffered before their deaths.
Su Bai could sense that the moment Duanmu Lei caught sight of the three divine corpses, his body trembled slightly, and a strong anger erupted within him.
Pei Yuanzheng's pupils dilated in shock. He pointed at the divine corpses in the three ancient coffins, swallowed hard, and then said, "Demon Lord, this is..."
Upon hearing this, the White-Haunted Demon Lord's lips curled slightly.
His voice was still hoarse and sinister, with a contemptuous smile.
“Three deities from the Primordial Heavenly Court have been wandering the Ten Realms for years, trying to steal information from my Demon Kingdom. They were the gifts I gave to Fellow Daoist Pei, and I killed them on the spot.”
"The essence of their Dao has not yet dissipated. Fellow Daoist, you can let the younger generation of your sect absorb it. Within ten thousand years, you can cultivate three new deities."
A gift that can help Zhentianmen add three deities is definitely a very "important" gift!
This gift, however, now weighs even heavier on Pei Yuanzheng's heart.
Should I accept this gift or not?
Accepting it would be tantamount to standing completely against the Taihuang Heavenly Court, regardless of whether one submits to the Demon Empire.
And once they accept this gift, it seems that the only option left for Zhentianmen is to join the Demon Empire.
If you don't accept...
Let alone the wrath of the Demon Kingdom, can he withstand the White-Haunted Demon Lord right before him?
For Pei Yuanzheng, this was a problem that tormented him to the extreme.
The atmosphere in the room instantly turned cold, and countless eyes were fixed on Pei Yuanzheng.
Pei Yuanzheng felt his legs go weak, but his wife reached out and supported him.
What will Pei Yuanzheng do?
This is something everyone is curious about right now.
Moreover, no matter what choice Pei Yuanzheng makes, the terrible bloodshed that follows is about to begin!
No one had the appetite for drinking and eating meat anymore; everyone mobilized their own magical powers, ready to flee at any moment.
Even Shen Yue stopped and looked at Pei Yuanzheng with a serious expression.
Su Baiping raised his wine cup and continued drinking by himself.
Bai Yan Demon Lord stood in the void, a sinister smile on his face that was impossible to look at directly. He said, "Fellow Daoist Pei, what's wrong with you? This congratulatory gift was something I put a lot of thought into. Are you not going to accept it? Are you afraid to accept it, or are you unwilling to accept it?"
"Do you intend to stand on the side of that so-called Primordial Heavenly Court and be an enemy of my Demon Kingdom?"
The moment Bai Yan Demon Lord uttered his last word, a tremendous storm seemed to surge toward the Xuanwu Seat Floating Island, originating from him!
Many people's clothes were stirred, and the wine in their glasses rippled.
Such a question, when it reached Pei Yuanzheng's ears, finally forced him to make a choice.
Just then, Duanmu Lei suddenly put down his wine cup, and a divine voice rang out.
"How imposing the Demon Kingdom is! Do you think you can intimidate the world by coercing the Heavenly Gate to make a decision with such a posture?" Duanmu Lei said.
His voice, empowered by divine power, resounded throughout heaven and earth.
Countless gazes converged on it.
Duanmu Lei slammed his hand on the table and rushed out, breaking through the mat. As he made a fist, an ancient-looking spear appeared in his palm and was firmly grasped.
He took several steps, each step causing the void to tremble, and his aura rose layer by layer.
A vast and immortal Dao essence erupted from his body.
The power of the three immortal paths—the Way of Wood, the Way of Life, and the Way of Time—was revealed at this moment, eliciting gasps of astonishment from countless people.
"Who is this person? How dare he contradict the White-Haunted Demon Lord?"
"It must be a powerful figure from the Taihuang Heavenly Court! Everyone knows that the Demon Empire is trying to force the Zhentian Gate to take sides today. How could the Taihuang Heavenly Court remain indifferent?"
"This person possesses formidable Daoist skills, having cultivated three paths to immortality simultaneously, and mastered them all to the extreme!"
......
As Duanmu Lei took a step forward, Xinghe beside him and Liyue beside Su Bai were both quite frightened.
At this moment, Li Yue first looked at Duanmu Lei, and then at Su Bai, her eyes filled with fear.
Qin Youzhi stared blankly at Su Bai, somewhat dumbfounded, "You...you...you people in the South of Lintian, are you part of the Taihuang Heavenly Court?"
Su Bai did not answer the question, but simply looked calmly at Duanmu Lei.
He already knew the identities of the three people.
The three divine corpses were all once subordinates of Duanmu Lei.
Duanmu Lei had long been lurking near the Demon Kingdom, so he was well aware of its power!
Duanmu Lei had already ascended to the sky and stood above the floating island of the Vermilion Bird constellation, facing off against the White-Haunted Demon Lord from afar.
Bai Yan, the Demon Lord, glanced at it sideways, then revealed a contemptuous smile, his expression completely unfazed.
"Who do we have here? It's just my defeated opponent. What, is it just you from the Great Wilderness?"
As Bai Yan Demon Lord spoke disdainfully, he looked towards the Vermilion Bird Floating Island behind Duanmu Lei, his gaze lingering for a moment on Su Bai, who was wearing a gilded ghost mask.
Su Bai could feel a powerful divine sense, no weaker than his own, sweeping over him.
However, Baiyan Demon Lord obviously could not see through Su Bai's true nature through the mask. All he could see was an ordinary first-tier god with immortal Dao essence.
Duanmu Lei gripped his spear tightly, his voice icy, "Bai Yan, there's no need for further words between us. I swear I will not rest until I kill you! Do you dare to fight me?"
After speaking, Duanmu Lei's aura exploded completely, his life force surged wildly, and a majestic evergreen tree condensed and grew in the void!
At the same time, the immense immortal Dao essence was also released from this evergreen ancient tree!
Bai Yan Demon Lord laughed loudly, his voice maniacal and unrestrained, "Kill me? You're quite interesting. Last time I let you escape with your life by sheer luck because I was slightly careless. Today, no matter what plans you, Taihuang, have, they will be meaningless. I'll just kill you first to whet my appetite!"
As he spoke, the White-Haunted Demon Lord glanced at Pei Yuanzheng and said indifferently, "Fellow Daoist Pei, activate the formation, lest this immortal sect be destroyed on your birthday."
