Chapter 444 Bloody Coffin, Someone Calling

The end of the ancient palace.

It is particularly empty and lonely, with a sense of desolation. As far as the eye can see, everything is bleak and desolate, as if it has experienced a world-destroying war. There are mottled bloodstains everywhere, and various limbs and corpses have long been weathered, but their original appearance can still be vaguely distinguished.

As soon as Xu Yang and Ji Daoxuan set foot here, they felt a soaring evil spirit and a chill that penetrated into people's hearts. This chill came from the mummified limbs on the ground.

"These alien races must have been very powerful before they were alive, otherwise they would not have been able to deter latecomers even after such a long time of death!"

Xu Yang looked at the mummified bodies all over the ground and said with a slightly serious expression. This chill was even colder than the alien woman he had encountered before. It was obvious that the strength of these alien races before they were alive must have far exceeded that of the alien woman.

Ji Daoxuan was shivering from the cold. In his perception, dozens of different mummified bodies were autonomously emitting coldness, causing the space temperature to drop sharply, as if falling into an ice cave. He shrank his clothes, endured the cold, and said to Xu Yang:

"Brother Xu, the owner of this ancient palace should be an ultimate powerhouse, otherwise he would not be able to kill so many alien races. I even suspect that he is the Xu Heavenly Emperor that Qingzhi spoke of!"

In fact, he had suspected more than once that this Xu Heavenly Emperor was the previous life of Brother Xu, and he had some evidence to corroborate his point of view. For example, he could only comprehend five of the ancient techniques recorded on the stone wall, while Brother Xu could comprehend all of them, and only spent a short day. Doesn't this explain everything?

"Brother Xu, have you remembered something?"

Thinking of this, Ji Daoxuan looked at Xu Yang cautiously and asked.

If Xu Yang really remembered his previous identity and was the Xu Heavenly Emperor, then Ji Daoxuan would not dare to call him Brother Xu, because that would be too offensive. It would not be an exaggeration to call him senior, let alone ancestor.

Looking at the restrained expression on Ji Daoxuan's face, both joyful and awe-inspiring, and his attitude suddenly became respectful, Xu Yang knew that if he said that he was the Lord of the Heavenly Court, Xu Heavenly Emperor, Ji would definitely kowtow to him and worship him, and might even call him ancestor. There was no doubt about this. Based on Ji's thick skin, he would do such a thing.

"Brother Ji, I am not."

Xu Yang estimated that if he kept adding generations, it would not be a pleasure for Little Hongluan, but rather a kind of perversion. Therefore, he told Ji Daoxuan the truth and said with a smile:

"Even if I am, that is just the previous life. The previous life is the previous life, and this life is this life. They cannot be confused."

This sentence was to tell Ji Daoxuan not to change his attitude towards him because of his previous identity. Even if his previous identity was noble and unspeakable, it would not affect the relationship between the two.

Hearing this, Ji Daoxuan smiled and said, "Hahaha, I was thinking too much. I was thinking that if Brother Xu, you were really Xu Heavenly Emperor, the Lord of the Heavenly Court in ancient times, even if the Heavenly Court eventually failed, it is impossible for all of the former subordinates to be destroyed, right? There must be forces that have been glorious to this day. Maybe when we ascend to the upper realm, we can borrow their strength to avoid a lot of trouble."

Xu Yang shook his head and said seriously, "Brother Ji, even if I am that Xu Heavenly Emperor, I will not contact the former subordinates, because no one knows if there is a problem with these former subordinates. Instead of spending energy to fight with them, it is better to cultivate on your own until you stand at the top of this world and overlook all living beings!"

Ji Daoxuan smacked his lips and felt that what Xu Yang said made sense. He tsk tsk said: "Brother Xu, I think that even if your previous life was not Xu Heavenly Emperor, it must be a great figure recorded in ancient books!"

Just based on this realm of speaking, which contains incomparable confidence, believing that he will be able to rely on his own efforts to reach the peak and have a panoramic view of the mountains, is many floors higher than his realm of wanting to borrow strength.

No wonder he is so old that he has just set foot in the Immortal Realm, while Xu Yang, who is not yet a hundred years old, is already in the posture of a Human Immortal. The gap between people is really unconvinced!

The two avoided the cold limbs and continued to walk towards the depths. After a while, the two stopped, because not far in front of them, there was a huge coffin. The coffin was blood-red, as if it had been soaked in blood for hundreds of millions of times. Just looking at it, a tragic picture of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and the ups and downs of the world appeared in his mind.

Hesitantly, there seemed to be a majestic man with a jade crown on his head, walking in the world. Order and rules manifested for him. Wherever he went, alien races were beheaded by him. These alien races were not weak. Cuckoos occupy nests, occupying powerful forces, driving all the people in the forces as slaves, and collecting all precious resources for him to use. Under the full support of an entire force, some of these alien races have been promoted to the realm of Immortal Emperor, becoming one of the top combat forces in this world, but in front of this majestic man, they are so weak and vulnerable, no matter how they struggle and resist, it is useless.

Because this majestic man covered the sky with one hand, all the alien races were destroyed in his hands, and he was so pushed across the heavens, no one could match!

"The one existing in this coffin is not Xu Heavenly Emperor!"

The picture in his mind disappeared, and Ji Daoxuan felt that the coldness that had originally enveloped his body suddenly disappeared. He exclaimed in a low voice.

Xu Yang seemed a little calmer, because he had experienced such things, and the things he had experienced were even more tragic. Compared with his previous life, at least this Xu Heavenly Emperor had many helpers. Of course,成也萧何，败也萧何(成也萧何，败也萧何: success is also Xiao He, failure is also Xiao He), the reason why the Heavenly Court suddenly failed overnight was because some of these helpers had impure thoughts. Not everyone cared about the survival of this world, they only cared about whether they could live a better life.

"It should be Xu Heavenly Emperor undoubtedly!"

Xu Yang released his divine sense, attached it to the surface of the coffin, and felt it for a while. He did not feel any trace of the breath of alien races before he confirmed.

"Xu Heavenly Emperor is a hero of my human race, I should sincerely kowtow!"

Ji Daoxuan's expression suddenly became extremely sincere. He stepped forward and was about to salute the coffin.

However, just a few steps closer, a fierce killing intent burst out from under the coffin, pointing directly at Ji Daoxuan's head!

Xu Yang's pupils shrank suddenly, and the Sky-Shielding Scripture automatically operated in his body, evolving a pair of golden giant hands, grabbing towards Ji Daoxuan, wanting to save him back.

The coffin, which was originally quietly suspended in the void, seemed to sense something. The coffin body shook gently a few times, rippling endless ripples in the void, with thousands of rhymes accompanying it, and hundreds of millions of brilliance blooming, shaking the fierce killing intent away. At the same time, countless miserable screams came from under the coffin, and mixed with angry scolding. Although they were speaking the language of alien races, they could judge from the tone that the alien races suppressed under the coffin were scolding very badly.

Ji Daoxuan, who was grabbed back to his side by Xu Yang, had a look of lingering fear on his face. He had never thought that he just wanted to worship this Xu Heavenly Emperor, but he almost died. If it weren't for the sudden shock of the coffin, and Brother Xu took action to grab him back, he might really have folded here. Thinking of this, Ji Daoxuan's body was a little cold. After eased for a long time, he fiercely said to the alien races under the coffin:

"You alien races, wait, when I improve my cultivation, I will directly run to your world and kill wantonly!"

The outside world rumor that Ji Daoxuan is narrow-minded and vindictive. Let me explain here that this is not a rumor. Ji Daoxuan is such a person. He is vengeful. If people respect him a foot, he will return a ten feet. If people destroy his grain, he will take three pecks from others.

He originally had no hatred with this alien races, but these alien races wanted to kill him again and again, and prevented him from attaining the Tao. This kind of great hatred is simply irreconcilable. This made him determined that when his strength reached a certain realm, he would definitely go to a foreign land, so that his Dao heart would be open and bright and leave no regrets.

The alien races seemed to understand Ji Daoxuan's words, but they didn't care at all, because in their eyes, Ji Daoxuan's mere human immortal realm cultivation was no different from mortal ants. Anyway, they could be easily pinched to death. As for what Ji Daoxuan said about waiting for his cultivation to improve and kill into a foreign land, they couldn't believe it even more. They just thought it was fantastic and said some jokes to make them happy.

Not to mention ants like Ji Daoxuan, even the owner of the coffin, such a behemoth, wanted to attack a foreign land, but didn't he ultimately fail?

The Emperor's soul has fallen, only leaving a wreckage to suppress them. However, after endless years, this wreckage has become more and more useless. At most, after ten thousand years, this wreckage will collapse. At that time, they will reappear and vent all the torture they have suffered in these endless years on the ants of this world!

"Brother Xu, you go with me then!"

Ji Daoxuan felt that he might be a little out of reach on his own, but if he added Xu Yang, it would definitely be enough, because Brother Xu is extremely talented. When his cultivation improves, Brother Xu must have become one of the strongest in this world.

However, Xu Yang did not respond, but froze for a moment, looked at Ji Daoxuan, and frowned:

"Brother Ji, have you heard any abnormal sounds, such as someone constantly calling you?"

"……"

Ji Daoxuan's face changed slightly, and he said nervously:

"Brother Xu, don't scare me. Besides the dog barking of these alien races, where is there any calling sound?"

Xu Yang was about to speak, but the sound in his ears became clearer and clearer. He almost instantly determined that the sound came from the coffin.

The owner of the coffin is calling him?!

He was silent for a moment, and said to Ji Daoxuan:

"Brother Ji, you protect me, I have something to deal with!"

"Okay."

Although Ji Daoxuan didn't know what happened, he just did what Xu Yang said.

Then, Xu Yang sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes. Ji Daoxuan guarded him, while vigilantly looking around, while muttering to the alien races suppressed under the coffin.

As soon as Xu Yang closed his eyes, he felt his immortal soul leap out and float towards the sky. He didn't know how long he floated before finally reaching the end. As far as he could see, it was a huge portal. On the portal, there were three magnificent characters carved - Nantianmen/South Heaven Gate!

However, this portal seemed to be affected by the flames of war. It was clearly made of top-quality divine materials, but at this moment, it had been burned charred and there were not small gaps, and there were cracks everywhere. Even the three characters of Nantianmen/South Heaven Gate were polluted by black ash!

Xu Yang stopped outside the Nantianmen/South Heaven Gate and watched for a while. Suddenly, sadness came from his heart, as if he had personally experienced all of this. Then he took a deep breath, did not stay outside the Nantianmen/South Heaven Gate for long, but stepped over the portal and walked straight inside. The scene inside was even more desolate and dilapidated. The originally very magnificent pavilions, continuous, the palace groups like mountains undulating, at this moment, have been turned into broken walls, the overturned alchemy furnace, the half-burned ancient scriptures, and the corpses that can be seen everywhere, white bones covered the land.

Xu Yang walked on it with a heavy heart. Every step he took, the white bones under his feet would make a cracking sound, as if they were wailing and crying to him, begging him for help. Clearly, this was not something he had experienced in his previous life, but he could feel it!

Following the call, Xu Yang walked for most of an hour, passing by one decadent place after another, and finally came to the outside of a palace that was still intact.

Xu Yang stopped, raised his eyes and looked up. He saw that on the palace, there was an extremely magnificent plaque. On the plaque, there were four powerful characters carved - Lingxiao Palace/Hall of Miraculous Heaven!

All the way, only this palace did not collapse, and only the plaque of this palace was not stained by stains.

The calling sound was in this palace. Xu Yang heard it very clearly. He was not worried about being designed and framed, because he could feel that there was no malice in this sound. So, he gently pushed open the door. The door made a creaking sound, and at the same time, dust fell rustling. Obviously, no one has lived in this palace for a long time.

Then this calling sound……

Xu Yang walked in, looked at the scene in the hall, everything was still intact, and on the steps not far away, sat a young man wearing a jade crown, and overlapped with the majestic man he had seen in his mind before. He was very sure that the man in front of him was Xu Heavenly Emperor.

He didn't know why the other party called him here, and he was thinking about how to speak when he suddenly felt an eager gaze falling on him, both joyful and sad.

Xu Yang was puzzled, raised his eyes and looked at the young man.

The young man looked at Xu Yang for a while, his eyes full of nostalgia for the past. Suddenly, he lowered his head with some shame, with infinite sadness, and said crying:

"I'm sorry, Master, I still failed in the end, I disappointed you!"

Master?!

Xu Yang: "……"
