The Blade-Wielding Legend-Chapter 1237 - 647: Earthquake Reveals Heroic Spirits

What is that?!

Wang Xuanmo was startled and quickly stepped back.

The truth is, relying too much on intelligence will eventually lead to problems.

Ever since Li Yan made his name known after the battle at Chengdu Royal Mansion, his past information had spread everywhere.

Some even went to the Li Family Castle in Guanzhong to inquire about Li Yan's past from the villagers.

As a result, many things were no longer secrets.

For instance, he could summon yin soldiers and had the Divine Transformation technique, among others.

However, some things can often be deceived by appearances.

The layout by Ghost Emperor Wang Xuanmo was already very thorough.

Using the Seven Orifice Lock Dragon Formation to disperse Li Yan's helpers...

Using Paperman Puppets and ghost ship yin soldiers to deplete Li Yan's Divine Transformation technique...

Trapping Li Yan in the main hall, and even preparing the Earth Official's Absolution of Sins Treasure Decree...

But man proposes, God disposes.

He didn't anticipate that Yin Jiuge could break such a rare formation in this world.

Nor did he expect that Li Yan's Divine Transformation technique was not just one kind.

Bang!

With a dull thud, Wang Xuanmo's head was directly pressed to the ground by Li Yan.

In an instant, his head shattered into pieces.

Not only that, Li Yan also drew the Duan Chen Blade and crushed his heart.

The retreat of the Yin Bureau soldiers, to be honest, Li Yan did not regret.

These old demons were clearly protected by someone in the Daluo Law Realm. Even if they were sent to the Netherworld, it would be unstable. Just as well, make their souls scatter in the Mortal World. Although he would lose the bounty, at least there would be no future worries.

In almost an instant, Ghost Emperor Wang Xuanmo became a pile of rotten flesh.

However, Li Yan frowned slightly, sensing something was wrong.

The aura of Wang Xuanmo on this fleshly body was rapidly dissipating.

It wasn't soul scattering, but disappearing into thin air.

Not good!

The other party had a Secret Technique for survival.

Li Yan immediately guessed the reason.

As he knew, some Magic Veins had similar heritage.

For example, the Liuren Immortal Sect had processes like Flower Character Sealing, Red Rope Crossing, and Receiving a Dharma Name to obtain a "Soul Storage Iron Plate," where the soul was housed with Secret Techniques.

If the fleshly body was destroyed, the soul would return, getting a chance for Body Seizing rebirth.

Of course, such Magic Methods have many taboos.

With the court laws and Mystic Sect's suppression, few dared to act openly reckless.

But Ghost Emperor Wang Xuanmo, who dared to violate both the Heavenly Rules and Yin Law, naturally wasn't afraid.

Without any hesitation, Li Yan immediately performed a Mantra and took a deep breath.

Whoosh~

With the Nether God's Magical Body supplementing him, the main hall was instantly filled with Yin Wind.

The entire Luoyang Royal Mansion range was filled with all the scents rushing into his nostrils.

In the rear garden!

Li Yan suddenly opened his eyes, ready to chase but stopped.

The Array Eye of Megrez was already opened.

The urgent task was to suppress the Seven Orifice Lock Dragon Formation.

Feeling unwilling, Li Yan nevertheless came to the front of the throne. A giant hand shrouded in black fog suddenly slapped down. With a tremendous roar, the golden carved jade steps shattered, and dirt and dust flew.

Below appeared an iron box the size of a round table.

The iron box was ancient in design, but from the rust marks, it wasn't that old.

This was personally buried by Ghost Emperor Wang Xuanmo.

Many years ago, when the former Luoyang King and his family were executed, taking advantage of the chaos in the palace, Wang Xuanmo had an insider act, setting a fire in the Qianyang Hall and posing as a craftsman to distract during repairs.

Of course, Li Yan was unaware of these matters.

Without thinking much, he held the treasure sword and flicked upwards with a reverse grip.

Clang!

The chains and copper locks binding it were all cut off.

Upon opening it, inside was a Qin Tiger Talisman, only the size of a handle ornament.

Mounds of red ropes, talisman papers, and copper coins surrounded the Tiger Talisman.

What technique is this?

Li Yan frowned, somewhat confused.

At the same time, Wang Daoxuan and Sha Lifei also rushed into the main hall. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Brother Yan, leave this place to us!"

After exchanging questions, Wang Daoxuan immediately said in a deep voice, "Senior Yin Jiuge has already taught the suppression method. Over there at Mang Mountain, Shaolin is temporarily holding it down, Wang Xuanmo must be heading to retrieve the cauldron, we cannot let him succeed!"

"Understood."

Li Yan nodded, and just as he turned around, the surroundings were filled with Yin Wind.

With the Netherworld God Technique supporting him now, his speed was amazing, wrapped in a whirlwind of black fog, swiftly traversing above the halls of the Royal Palace. Within just two breaths, he arrived at the Royal Palace garden.

The Luoyang Royal Mansion was located on the north side, and Mang Mountain was north of Luoyang City.

Wang Xuanmo had clearly prepared his escape route long ago.

The Prince Mansion Garden had become extremely eerie.

The centuries-old cypresses in the garden were all dead, their branches twisted like spasming arms. The surfaces of the rockery stones were covered in dark green moss, and under the eaves of the octagonal pavilion, hung numerous decaying bronze bells, evidently items from tombs.

On both sides of the winding path, paperman maids were lined up in two rows, with red-painted cheeks, extremely lifelike.

Crack!

Upon sensing Li Yan's aura, all the paperman maids turned their heads simultaneously.

But these papermen did not move chaotically; instead, they suddenly shattered, and countless Poison Insects turned into black smoke, howling out.

These Poison Insects weren't large, resembling flies, clearly not matching Lv San's Poison Bees.

But buzzing and flying, the Yin Wind they stirred carried a faint stench.

In normal times, Li Yan would need to effort a bit more, but he was now the Nether God's Body, surrounded by Yin Sha Qi from the Underworld. Facing the Poison Insect swarm, he didn't slow down at all.

Wherever the black wind passed, the Poison Insects froze, clattering to the ground.

Swish!

Amidst the howling wind, Li Yan already landed atop the rockery.

The scent he had smelled earlier was right here.

Sure enough, the ground behind the rockery had been broken open, revealing a large hole.

Below lay an opened bronze coffin, filled with thick blood-colored liquid and floating fetal membrane-like objects.

A familiar smell hit his nostrils.

It's an "Earth Immortal Body"!
