Chapter 1410 - 1401: Ice Soul Puppets

Chapter 1410: Chapter 1401: Ice Soul Puppets

"I will make a move!"

The Female Emperor’s face was calm as she spoke softly.

After speaking, she took out a piece of remnant jade from her bosom, covered in profound patterns, its mysterious light shimmering. One could see the flow of three thousand great daos, crisscrossed with the power of endless rules and various transcendent forces.

As soon as this jade appeared, space-time instantly froze!

Additionally, dimensional power was also fixed, unable to reverse time and the River of Time.

"This is..."

The four people watching from afar, including Liu Che, had a change in their expressions when they saw the remnant jade.

Isn’t this the Martial Saint Jade?

After defeating Hongjun, the Qin Dynasty also received a piece of remnant jade, and the power it revealed was exactly the same as the one in the Female Emperor’s hand.

"Shatter!"

Holding the Martial Saint Jade, the Female Emperor’s gentle gaze suddenly became sharp, her imperial robe fluttering, her black hair dancing wildly, and a terrifying aura erupted, making the Void boil and the universe tremble.

She took a light lotus step, leaving the phoenix carriage, transforming into a beam of imperial light as she charged toward the Four Elements Formation.

As she was about to approach, she extended her delicate jade hand holding the Martial Saint Jade, gathering massive energy, one thousand eight hundred strands of imperial rule power flashed, striking upward into the sky.

Boom!

Heaven and earth shattered.

A golden palm print soared into the sky, like the eternal seal, striking the "Four Elements Formation," producing a world-shocking sound, causing the entire "Void Tomb" to shake violently.

Unmatched mighty force swept through, destroying one celestial body after another.

The Four Elements Formation!

Directly pierced through!

"Let’s go!"

The Female Emperor’s majestic voice descended from high above.

Upon hearing this, everyone ran wildly, flying toward the hole in the "Four Elements Formation."

"This piece of remnant jade is not bad!"

The Shadow Envoy was the last to leave, taking a deep look at the Martial Saint Jade in the Female Emperor’s hand, leaving with a smile.

The Female Emperor subconsciously tightened her grip on the Martial Saint Jade, her beautiful eyes deepening, a hint of killing intent flashing by, but soon disappearing, leaving the "Four Elements Formation" unhurriedly.

"Martial Saint Remnant Jade!"

"Tianhe, you still lost!"

After everyone had left, a hoarse voice sounded, extremely cold, with a touch of smugness and excitement.

Soon after, the "Four Elements Formation" collapsed.

Strangely, however, the corpses of the martial artists who had died also disappeared at this moment.

Upon leaving the "Four Elements Formation," everyone felt the world spinning, and when they reappeared, they had returned to the training ground, with a white palace standing ahead on the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps.

Everyone looked dazed, as if everything that just happened was but a dream.

Awoken from the dream!

Things returned to normal!

Yet, when they looked at the steps, they were filled with lingering fear, and no one dared to step in.

"Five statues are missing!"

In the far back, Liu Che glanced around and noticed that there were five fewer statues standing on either side of the steps, which was hard to notice without careful observation.

If he remembered correctly, five weaker Creation Realm martial artists had fallen before breaking the formation.

Five puppets!

Five Creation Realm martial artists!

What is the connection between these two?

Liu Che was stroking his chin, lost in thought.

"Your Majesty the Female Emperor, this ’Void Tomb’ was formed after the Tianhe Lord defeated the Tianhan Country. Did the Tianhe Lord leave any words behind?"

The Shadow Envoy looked at the Female Emperor and asked.

"If there were any, would it be your turn?"

The Female Emperor rolled her eyes. If there had been a decree left by the Tianhe Lord, she would have opened the "Void Tomb" long ago, why wait until now?

If anything was left, it was a command from the Tianhe Lord before leaving, prohibiting the opening of the "Void Tomb" until a Three Knowledge Realm martial artist was born.

But now that they’ve entered the "Void Tomb," these words naturally cannot be spoken to avoid causing panic.

Whether it’s a blessing or a disaster, they must bear it together.

"Your Majesty, I will go ahead!"

Dongfang Aogu stepped forward, cupping his hands politely.

"Be careful!"

The Female Emperor nodded and said.

Dongfang Aogu laughed, turned around, and walked to the steps, his inner energy operating, as he took a step under everyone’s gaze.

The sound of heavy footsteps echoed.

No danger occurred.

Seeing this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The previous "Four Elements Formation" encounter made them feel the crisis of death; if it weren’t for the Female Emperor’s intervention, they would probably be doomed.

If they encounter danger again, they should consider leaving the "Void Tomb."

With Dongfang Aogu exploring the way, the others followed behind him, and soon, everyone arrived at the palace door.

Gazing at the tightly closed palace gate, Dongfang Aogu hesitated for a moment before slowly extending his right hand.

Creaaak!

The palace door, aged with the passage of history, emitted a piercing noise as it slowly opened.

The Female Emperor, the Shadow Envoy, Shangguan Huangji, and others raised their heads, curiously looking into the hall, which was pitch black inside, like the eyes of a demon, where nothing could be seen.

It seemed as if all light was swallowed upon entering inside.

"Those who trespass the great hall shall die!"

At this moment, a cold voice sounded, and before the crowd could react, a wave of cold air flew out from the hall, freezing the Void.

"Not good!"

Dongfang Aogu’s pupils contracted, urgently using his movement technique to fly to the side, narrowly avoiding the cold air.

Just as he thought the crisis was over, his expression changed again.

"How could this be..."

Dongfang Aogu lowered his head, glancing at his left arm, already frozen.

This was not the most fatal; the true danger was a wave of cold air spreading from his left arm, rampaging within his body, freezing everything, even preventing his inner energy from circulating.

If the cold air wasn’t expelled, he would turn into an ice sculpture in no time.

"Damn it!"

Dongfang Aogu roared, a flash of ferocity in his eyes, drawing a battle sword from his accompanying space, and slashing towards his left arm.

Crunch!

The battle sword fell.

The left arm responded by breaking away, falling to the ground, shattering into a pile of ice shards.

Between his arm and his life, he chose his life without hesitation.

"Ah!"

Painful screams escaped from Dongfang Aogu’s mouth.

But at this moment, everyone had no time to worry about Dongfang Aogu’s injury because within the pitch-black hall, pairs of scarlet eyes appeared, accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps.

Thud, thud, thud...

Each step made everyone’s heart leap.

After ten steps.

Eight figures appeared from the darkness, holding battle knives, their entire bodies snow-white, exuding cold air with no sign of life, yet causing everyone present to feel a chill in their hearts.

"Ice Puppets!"

Upon seeing the eight puppets, the Female Emperor immediately recognized their origin. Her face changed slightly as she said in a deep voice: "Everyone, be careful, these puppets can unleash Molding Dao Realm power!"

"Kill!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the eight Ice Puppets launched their attack.

They stomped their right foot on the ground, transforming into streaks of white light, rushing out of the hall, raising their weapons and charging at everyone.

The Female Emperor, the Shadow Envoy, Shangguan Huangji, and other Molding Dao Realm martial artists each intercepted a puppet.

Even Dongfang Aogu, with a missing arm, engaged fiercely with a puppet, filled with rage, as rule power burst forth, destroying large swaths of the Void.
