Chapter 1288

The secret cave was eerily quiet for a moment. The four Corpse Commanders, whose strength was comparable to the peak of the Void Returning Mirror, all fell silent. It seemed that they were not going to pursue Yang Kai either. After all, since he could tear through space and escape, even if their strength was greater, I’m afraid they couldn’t catch up with him. Unless they also had a teleportation method similar to tearing through space.

“Alas, that True Essence of the Sun is the key to our promotion to Corpse King. Now that it has been taken away, what should we do? A Corpse Commander in white frowned tightly, looking very frustrated.

“That’s right. Without this True Essence of the Sun, the last layer of the Corpse Refining Art that we are cultivating simply cannot continue. Without achieving the Corpse King’s body, how can we become an immortal and indestructible existence？” The last Corpse Commander in black also nodded in agreement, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes, as if he didn’t want to let Yang Kai leave so easily.

No, even if he is proficient in spatial power we can’t let him leave. I’ll go and catch him back right away.” The Corpse Commander in green gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and turned around, as if he really wanted to chase after him.

Brother Mo, have you forgotten the existence of those people on Star Emperor Mountain? Although two thousand years have passed, if we leave this place at this time, we will surely be targeted by them. Moreover, since that person is proficient in spatial power, how could he be so easily caught up with? The Corpse Commander in white quickly stopped him.

Upon hearing the words Xingdi Mountain, the other three Corpse Generals couldn’t help but have their pupils shrink. Not only did a look of dread show, but there was also deep-seated hatred. And indeed, the Green-Clothed Corpse General also gave up the idea in his heart.

The White-Clothed Corpse General chuckled again： “Although the True Essence of the Sun has been lost, this may not necessarily be a bad thing either.”

“What？” The Green-Clothed Corpse General looked at him in surprise.

“Do several senior brothers know why our Guyang Sect would place a True Essence of the Sun here？” The White-Clothed Corpse General smiled enigmatically, looking extremely strange.

“Junior Brother Kang knows？”

The White-Clothed Corpse General didn’t clarify either. Instead, he looked inscrutably at the position where the original jade platform was located and slowly said： “Originally, I didn’t dare to be too certain about this matter, but now I have an eighty percent certainty. Several senior brothers might as well take a look over there and see if they can sense anything.”

Upon hearing this, the other three Corpse Generals looked at each other in dismay and suspiciously looked over there. At the same time, they released their spiritual thoughts to carefully sense.

Moments later, the expressions of the three Corpse Generals suddenly all shook. The Green-Clothed Corpse General’s eyes shrank and he exclaimed： “What a rich Yin Fiend Qi. It seems to be sealed, and only a little bit is leaking out. But just like this, it is already much thicker than the Corpse Cave Qi in this place.”

And the other Red-Clothed Corpse General and Black-Clothed Corpse General, although they didn’t speak, also showed expressions of surprise and joy. Obviously, these Yin Sha Qi were extremely important to them.

The three Corpse Generals quickly turned their gazes to the White-Clothed Corpse General, and the Green-Clothed Corpse General asked, “Junior Brother Kang, you are the only blood descendant of the master in those years. Do you know something？ If so, don’t keep us in suspense. Just tell your senior brothers.”

“That’s right, that’s right, Junior Brother Kang. Although the three of us are older than you, in terms of understanding the secrets of the sect, how can we compare with you？ Moreover, when the sect was destroyed back then, we were only at the Saint Realm cultivation level. If it weren’t for Junior Brother leading the three of us to hide here, I’m afraid we would have already lost our souls.”

The Red-Clothed Corpse General, who seemed to be the most unruly, also looked at the White-Clothed Corpse General with a much softer gaze, looking like he was listening quietly.

The White-Clothed Corpse General chuckled and said, “The matters of those years have all passed. Senior brothers don’t need to worry about it. The reason why I brought you all into this place is also by the order of the Sect Master, just to preserve some incense for our Gu Yang Sect.”

Speaking of this, the expressions of the four Corpse Generals all dimmed.

Although the incense has barely been preserved, but the four handsome and unrestrained senior brothers back then have now become like this. I don’t know if they have lived up to the Sect Master’s cultivation back then.

After a moment of silence, the white-clothed corpse general composed his emotions and continued to speak： “Back then, my strength was not high. Although the sect master was my father, I didn’t have the qualification to come into contact with too many secrets of the sect. However, I once overheard my father and mother talking about this secret cave and heard some unknown things. It is said that a Huangquan spring eye is sealed here.”

“Huangquan spring eye！” The three corpse generals exclaimed in horror when they heard this.

“That’s right！” The white-clothed corpse general nodded with a solemn expression. “What the Huangquan spring eye is, perhaps we didn’t know back then, but now, surely several senior brothers understand？”

“Naturally!” The green-clothed corpse general nodded solemnly. “That Huangquan spring eye is said to lead directly to the rumored underworld and is the most dream of cultivation holy land for existences like us.

“No wonder, no wonder a corpse cave would appear here. It turns out there is a Huangquan spring eye！” The black-clothed corpse general also muttered thoughtfully.

“In order to seal this Yellow Spring Wellspring, I don’t know which generation of the suzerain of our Gu Yang Sect found a piece of True Essence of the Sun and suppressed it on the wellspring with the scorching power of the True Fire of the Sun. In this way, it can be foolproof. And in order to be able to store the True Essence of the Sun, the later generations of the suzerain spent a huge price to find that Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Jade Platform and placed it here together！ It can be said that this matter is one of the greatest secrets of the sect. It seems that only the suzerain and a few elders are qualified to know about it.” After the White-Clothed Corpse General finished speaking, he chuckled： “However, although I heard a few words back then, I didn’t know much. Coupled with the fact that the True Essence of the Sun was suppressed here and we couldn’t get close at all, so I didn’t tell a few senior brothers. I hope senior brothers don’t blame me！”

“Hahaha！” The Green-Clothed Corpse General laughed loudly and heavily patted the shoulder of the White-Clothed Corpse General： “Junior Brother Kang, what are you talking about? The four of us brothers have long been like a family. How could we blame you? Moreover, even if you had said it back then, we wouldn’t have had any way to deal with it. But now it seems that there is probably really a Yellow Spring Wellspring here！”

“Yes, just the leaked Yin Fiend Qi is so thick. If the seal is opened, wouldn’t the benefits we can get be endless？ With the help of this Yellow Spring Wellspring, it is not impossible to condense the body of the Corpse King. This is much safer than cultivating the last layer of the Corpse Refining Art.”

“That’s right. After all, no one has ever cultivated the last level of the Corpse Refining Art, and it also requires such a dangerous thing as the True Essence of the Sun. I originally didn’t approve of continuing to cultivate it. Now, everything has been easily resolved. It seems that we really should thank the guy who took away the True Essence of the Sun.”

The Red-Clothed Corpse General remained silent for a long time before suddenly saying thoughtfully： “I was just wondering why there would be something like the Corpse Refining Art in the sect. And do you still remember that Elder Liu seemed to have several quite powerful corpse slaves under him back then. It seems that he cultivated them here.”

The several corpse generals thought for a while and nodded in agreement one after another.

The Green-Clothed Corpse General waved his hand and said： “Alright, since we know that there is a Yellow Spring Spring Eye here, then we should first think of a way to break its seal. Presumably, without the suppression of the True Essence of the Sun, with our current strength, it won’t be difficult to break it. But before that, it’s not suitable for there to be any more outsiders disturbing the sect’s remains. Otherwise, if someone detects any abnormalities, it might attract the attention of Xingdi Mountain again.”

“That’s easy. Just let them go out and move around. Anyway, the powerhouses outside already know the situation here. As long as they don’t leave the Sect’s Remnants, there shouldn’t be any big problems.” The Red-Clothed Corpse General sneered coldly and turned his head to look behind him. Behind them, a large number of Corpse Soldiers and Corpse Generals had somehow appeared, standing there so densely each one exuding a monstrous killing intent, with green eyes. Although their bodies were different, judging from the rotating eyes of them these Corpse Soldiers and Corpse Generals clearly all possessed their own spiritual intelligence, and the spiritual intelligence didn’t seem to be shallow.

The several Corpse Generals with the strongest strength immediately issued a series of orders. These Corpse Soldiers and Corpse Generals received the orders and left the Corpse Cave in groups of three or five, going to various places in the Burial Valley to move around.

And just as the four Corpse Generals were talking, in a certain place thousands of miles away, a crack suddenly opened in the void. The crack was crooked, seemingly very unstable. The next moment a figure rushed out from it, and immediately after, another figure rushed out.

Almost at the same time as the second figure rushed out, the crack in the void suddenly disappeared.

Yang Kai turned his head to look back with a look of fear on his face, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Although at the last moment, relying on the means of tearing space, he brought Yang Yan and left thousands of miles away in an instant, the attack of that red-clothed Corpse General still affected the stability of the spatial crack. Just now, he and Yang Yan almost got lost in the spatial crack. If it weren’t for his increasing understanding and comprehension of the power of space over the years, this time even if he could escape by himself, Yang Yan would surely die.

Yang Yan was completely unaware of such danger, but Yang Kai broke out in a cold sweat and secretly decided that if he took someone to escape through this method next time, he must first run to a position where the enemy could not interfere, otherwise there was a high possibility of regretting for life.

Moreover, I don’t know if it was his own illusion. At the moment of leaving that Corpse Cave, Yang Kai felt an unusual aura from the position where the Myriad Years Ice Jade Platform was stored.

Shaking his head, not thinking deeply about these things, now that he can escape from the hands of a powerful person at the peak of the Void Returning Mirror, Yang Kai is already extremely grateful. Moreover, this trip has been extremely rewarding.

There was no time to check one by one. Yang Kai only had time to pay attention to the situation of the Stone Puppet in the Black Book Space. After confirming that it was temporarily fine, he burst out with Saint Yuan, wrapped Yang Yan, identified the direction, and rushed towards the periphery of Burial Male Valley.

Yang Yan seemed to have been somewhat frightened in that Corpse Cave. She didn’t say a word along the way, but just leaned closely against Yang Kai, shivering.

She seemed to be born with a small courage.

There was no danger on the way. Apart from the souls startled by the Saint Yuan drive by Yang Kai and chase them all the way, there were no other obstacles. However, with Yang Kai’s eagerness to leave now, those souls simply couldn’t catch up. In just half a day, the two of them had flown most of the way.
