Eternal Sacred King

The personal guard of Prince Yuan Zuo!

Among the hundred people beneath the main hall, many cultivators had fervent gazes.

This was equivalent to a leap to the heavens and they would be completely free from their status as people of the lower worlds. From then on, no one in the upper world would dare look down on them.

Although the beauties around Prince Yuan Zuo were maidservants in name, all of them were at the Earth Essence realm and their cultivation realms were higher than theirs.

Furthermore, those that could be fancied by Prince Yuan Zuo were all peerless beauties. It would definitely be a rare blessing to have them as Dao companions.

“Hehe!”

Li Tian laughed. “Your Highness, feel free to tell us what you want us to do. I’ll definitely not disappoint you!”

“Alright!”

Prince Yuan Zuo was very satisfied and said in a deep voice, “There are various ruins and secret grounds in the upper world. Right now, a secret ground has appeared in the Divine Firmament Mainland.”

“Due to the uniqueness of this secret ground, those with high cultivation realms will be restricted instead. Black Immortals won’t be affected much when they enter.”

At that point, Su Zimo sneered internally.

It was clear that Prince Yuan Zuo was hiding the most critical piece of information!

According to Tang Ziyi, any living being that entered the Emperor’s Tomb would be cursed and no one would be spared!

Black Immortals were merely affected less and could move freely within.

Su Zimo observed for a moment.

Among the hundred people in the hall, apart from him and Tang Ziyi, everyone else had calm expressions. It was clear that they did not know anything about the Emperor’s Tomb and did not feel threatened.

To be precise, it was not because these people knew too little, but because Tang Ziyi knew too much.

Be it the Thunder Emperor or the matter of the Emperor’s Tomb, those were extremely secretive matters. However, Tang Ziyi knew everything.

Su Zimo was curious about Tang Ziyi’s identity as well.

This woman definitely had a powerful expert or faction backing her.

Prince Yuan Zuo continued, “There are countless rare treasures, divine powers and secret skills buried in this secret ground. These are also great opportunities for you guys!”

“Thank you, Your Highness!”

Many cultivators bowed hurriedly with delighted expressions.

Prince Yuan Zuo said, “I can promise you that I won’t lay my hands on any treasures or inheritances you obtain inside.”

“However, I want something from this secret ground! No matter what method you guys use, you must get it back!”

“Here it comes!”

Su Zimo thought to himself.

This was the true motive of Prince Yuan Zuo!

“Please speak, Your Highness,”

Everyone asked.

“It’s a jade talisman,”

Prince Yuan Zuo said slowly, “I don’t have any clues about this jade talisman. However, I’m certain that it’s in that secret ground!”

Li Tian shouted, “Don’t worry, Your Highness. It’s just a jade talisman. I’ll definitely find it for you after exploring every single corner of the secret ground!”

Prince Yuan Zuo nodded slightly and continued, “In addition, you guys have to be careful when you enter the secret ground. That’s because apart from you guys, there will be Black Immortals of other Immortal Kingdoms and sects searching for this jade talisman inside.”

Under such circumstances, it would be fine if they did not manage to find the jade talisman. However, if they did, it would definitely attract the killing intent of various factions!

“I’ll have two old servants lead you guys into the secret ground this time round,”

Prince Yuan Zuo waved his hand and two old men stood out behind him. One was fat and the other was skinny. They bowed to Prince Yuan Zuo. “We will definitely do our best and not let you down, Your Highness.”

Su Zimo’s gaze lingered on the two old men.

The two old men were also Grade 9 Black Immortals.

However, the auras released by the two of them seemed special.

“Your Highness, when are we entering the secret ground?”

Someone asked.

“We’ll have to wait a little longer,”

Prince Yuan Zuo said, “Right now, that secret ground has just descended on Divine Firmament Mainland not long ago. Once the barrier of the secret ground is weak, I’ll send you guys in.”

He waved his sleeves gently and a series of lights shone in the hall.

On the ground not far away from everyone, a gigantic teleportation formation appeared. The formation patterns were mysterious and complicated, shimmering with a bright divine light.

Su Zimo glanced at Tang Ziyi.

The latter stood in the crowd expressionlessly and motionlessly.

As he had expected, it was almost impossible to assassinate Prince Yuan Zuo.

If Tang Ziyi wanted to assassinate Prince Yuan Zuo, the only possibility was to close in and make use of the sharpness of the dark daggers to complete the assassination.

However, Tang Ziyi did not even have the chance to get close to Prince Yuan Zuo!

If she could not make her move now, she could only follow everyone into the Emperor’s Tomb.

However, they would definitely be cursed the moment they entered the Emperor’s Tomb!

His Green Lotus True Body was immune to poison and was also extremely resistant to curses.

However, the Green Lotus True Body had yet to grow to its peak.

Right now, he was only a Grade 9 Green Lotus True Body.

Even Immortal Emperors could not avoid the curse of the Emperor’s Tomb!

“Do you have a way to dispel the curse?”

Su Zimo sent a voice transmission to Tang Ziyi.

“Yes,”

Tang Ziyi only said a single word and did not reply.

“It’s about time. Prepare yourselves,”

Prince Yuan Zuo suddenly said.

Under the lead of the fat and skinny old men, everyone entered the teleportation formation.

After a while, a few maidservants at the side activated the teleportation formation.

A blinding beam of light burst forth from the teleportation formation and enveloped everyone before soaring into the skies.

Su Zimo felt his head spin and the scene before him tore and shifted continuously.

After a long time, Su Zimo’s feet sank and he landed on the ground once more.

The moment he descended, Su Zimo frowned.

The Green Lotus bloodline flowed through his body and he was extremely sensitive to the outside world.

He could clearly sense a strange power enveloping him, seeping into his body and even his bloodline!

Even the Green Lotus True Body could not purge it!

The curse of the Emperor’s Tomb!

Tang Ziyi was not exaggerating. Even his Green Lotus True Body could not defend against the power of the Emperor’s Tomb’s curse!

Su Zimo secretly took out a supreme black-grade Dharmic treasure from his storage bag.

In the blink of an eye, the Dharmic treasure was covered in a layer of green spots and had no Spirit Qi—it was completely crippled!

It was not only living beings—even Dharmic treasures could not escape the corrosion of the Emperor’s Tomb’s curse!

Su Zimo looked at the others.

Tang Ziyi and the two old men had calm expressions.

Tang Ziyi was long prepared and was naturally not surprised.

As commanders, the two old men were already prepared to die upon entering the Emperor’s Tomb.

Given their lifespans, they would not be able to live for long even if they were not tainted by the curse of the Emperor’s Tomb.

As for the others, they gradually noticed something amiss as well.

“What happened?”

“Is this the secret ground? I feel a strange power floating around.”

“It’s a little sinister inside here.”

The crowd discussed.

Suddenly, the fat old man laughed with a strange expression and said coldly, “Congratulations on coming to the Emperor’s Tomb!”

“The Emperor’s Tomb? What Emperor’s Tomb?”

Someone asked hurriedly with a frightened expression.

“The Emperor’s Tomb is where an Immortal Emperor was buried!”

The skinny old man said, “The only hope for you guys to survive now is to find the jade talisman as soon as possible. Otherwise, the longer you stay in the Emperor’s Tomb, the harder it will be for you to return alive!”
