Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 2354 - 2354 Protecting Whose Tomb?



2354 Protecting Whose Tomb?

“Fellow Daoist, are you preparing to head to Avici as well?”

A Heavenly King said in a deep voice, “If that’s the case, why don’t we join forces?”

The eight Heavenly Kings could not see through the background of the tomb keeper and did not dare to act rashly. One of them took the initiative to rope him in.

The tomb keeper sighed gently. “You’re all people who are about to die. Why struggle? Just find an empty tomb around you and rest in peace.”

“Mmm?”

Right then, the expressions of the eight Heavenly Kings changed!

Unknowingly, they were surrounded by tombs that were densely packed and arranged in an endless manner.

Asura Monastery and Great Tie Wei Mountain seemed to have vanished.

It was as though they were in an endless cemetery with a deathly aura around them. It was dusky and filled with ghost flames that sent chills down one’s spine!

“This is…”

“An illusion?”

“Array formation?”

The eight Heavenly Kings were bewildered.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Right then, a series of cracks sounded from the Grotto-heavens behind the eight Heavenly Kings and they began to collapse rapidly!

“Ah!”

“This is bad, that’s the power of the world!”

“We’ve already fallen into his world!”

Only after entering the Emperor realm would the Grotto-heaven transform and become a world of its own!

Emperor Bo Xun’s Heaven of the Great Fiend was a world he created.

Although there was only a major cultivation realm difference between the Emperor realm and the Grotto-heaven realm, there was an unimaginable difference!

Even a hundred or a thousand Immortal Kings could not defend against a single Emperor!

All Grotto-heavens of King realm experts had to shatter in the worlds backed by the Emperors!

“He’s an Emperor!”

The eight Heavenly Kings exclaimed and released all their methods without hesitation. Their blood qi surged and they released their Destiny Dharmic Treasures and various talismans!

In the face of the Emperor, the eight Heavenly Kings did not even have the courage to resist and fled in all directions.

The tomb keeper walked slowly towards a Heavenly King and murmured, “Don’t run. I’ll collect your corpse.”

The moment he said that, the Heavenly King paused and his body stiffened. As though he had suffered a huge blow, his lifeforce deteriorated rapidly.

The person’s head tilted and he fell from midair.

Although the tomb keeper looked slow, he arrived beside the person at the appropriate moment and caught the latter’s corpse, tossing it into an empty tomb.

“Time to collect the corpses.”

The tomb keeper turned and looked at the back of another Heavenly King, saying softly.

The Heavenly King shuddered and in the blink of an eye, death filled his body. He died and fell into the same empty tomb.

Su Zimo, Mo Qing and Yun Zhu were shocked when they saw that.

The Heavenly Kings of the Buddhist monasteries, experts who were almost at the peak of the upper world, were like ants in front of the tomb keeper!

The tomb keeper did not attack at all.

With just a single sentence, a Heavenly King died.

“W-Who exactly are you?!”

Unable to withstand it, a Heavenly King broke down mentally and stopped, roaring at the tomb keeper.

The tomb keeper turned to look at the Heavenly King with a dark glint in his eyes.

Instantly, the Heavenly King’s eyes froze and he fell limply into the empty tomb, dead!

A single gaze was enough to kill a Heavenly King!

Psst!

Su Zimo and the other two felt chills run down their bodies.

What sort of methods were those?

In the blink of an eye, only three of the eight Heavenly Kings were left.

However, the cemetery was boundless and the eight Heavenly Kings could not escape at all.

This was the world of the tomb keeper.

“Look, there’s an exit there!”

A Heavenly King pointed to a dark abyss not far away and roared.

“That’s Avici!”

Another Heavenly King reacted and shuddered.

Although the tomb keeper’s world covered the skies and enveloped this place, it could not envelope Avici as well.

Therefore, there was indeed an exit in this world.

The entrance to Avici!

“So what if it’s Avici?”

A Heavenly King’s face was pale as he grit his teeth. “There’s still a chance of survival if we escape into Avici. We’ll definitely die in the hands of this person!”

“Let’s go!”

Without hesitation, the three Heavenly Kings leaped into Avici.

The tomb keeper looked at the backs of the three of them and shook his head gently, sighing. “I’m old and my legs aren’t nimble. I can’t chase anymore.”

As he said that, he walked into the distance without even looking at Su Zimo and the other two.

Unknowingly, the sinister cemetery from earlier on had already vanished.

Su Zimo and the other two were still standing in the ruins of Asura Monastery. There were no changes to their surroundings and the five dead Buddhist Heavenly Kings were nowhere to be seen.

“Thank you, senior…”

Yun Zhu was the first to react and wanted to thank him.

However, she stopped before she could finish.

The moment they were distracted, the long-browed old monk vanished as well!

It was as though what the three of them experienced earlier was a dream and an illusion without any traces left behind.

Corpses, fresh blood and fights—nothing was left behind.

However, the three of them knew that it was definitely not a hallucination!

They had truly survived an assassination attempt from the Heavenly Kings.

Su Zimo and the other two exchanged glances, feeling as though they just had a close brush with death.

“Who was that senior?”

Mo Qing asked.

Su Zimo shook his head gently. “I only know that he calls himself the tomb keeper, but I don’t know his background.”

He had once guessed that this tomb keeper was not simple.

However, he had not expected that the tomb keeper would be so strong that he was on the same level as Emperor Bo Xun!

Su Zimo and Mo Qing looked at Yun Zhu at the same time.

As the Book Immortal, Yun Zhu had a deep understanding of the Heavenly World and its history.

Yun Zhu frowned in deep thought. After reminiscing for a long time, she shook her head. “I don’t have any impression of him. I’ve never heard of this senior either.”

“Tomb keeper…”

Su Zimo murmured softly and looked at Tie Wei Mountain in the distance.

Actually, he had thought of a bold possibility!

The gigantic tomb guarded by the tomb keeper might belong to Emperor Bo Xun!

That was because back then, Emperor Bo Xun was sent here and everyone thought that he had died here.

However, Emperor Bo Xun had already left alive—why was the tomb keeper still here?

“Tomb keeper, tomb keeper…”

Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he suddenly thought of an even more terrifying guess!

In a sense, Avici could be considered as a cemetery as well.

Furthermore, there was an unprecedented peerless expert buried within—the Infinite Great Emperor!

Could he be guarding the tomb of the Infinite Great Emperor?!

The tomb keeper of the Infinite Great Emperor!

That guess was way too terrifying and could shock the world!

However, Su Zimo denied that thought on second thought.

That was impossible.

The Infinite Great Emperor had died for many years and countless years had passed. Even the Longevity Great Emperor had passed away a long time ago—who could survive till now?

Su Zimo shook his head gently and gradually let go of those distracting thoughts.

No matter what, the tomb keeper did not seem to have any enmity towards the three of them.
