The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal-Chapter 1183: The Resentment of the Corpse Monarch
Chapter 1183: Chapter 1183: The Resentment of the Corpse Monarch
"Who... who are you?"
Lu Ling stared at the enormous coffin, feeling an immense oppressive aura, suddenly swallowing saliva and his heartbeat quickening.
Not too far away.
Ye Feng, Shi Youyou, Jade God, and Hu Feifei were hiding in the shadows, watching everything unfold.
In the depths of the dark seal.
The coffin where the Corpse Monarch lay was slowly sinking and floating, emitting strands of lightning-like Evil Qi, tearing through the void.
Then, an indifferent voice sounded:
"I am the Corpse Monarch!"
"Your compass is quite interesting, a treasure that can only be refined by top-tier Immortal Venerates, containing the Power of Laws. How did it end up with you? Could it be that you are acquainted with top-tier Immortal Venerates like myself?"
This confused Lu Ling immensely.
Top-tier Immortal Venerates?
The person in the coffin before him, shouldn’t he be a top-tier powerhouse at the Immortal Emperor Level?
How could he be merely an Immortal Venerate?
And...
The Corpse Monarch?
This title sounded very familiar!
It seems it could only be found in ancient texts close to rotting away.
Lu Ling’s thoughts were in turmoil.
Seeing that he didn’t reply, the Corpse Monarch snorted coldly, "Foolish creature! Quickly answer my question, or else, I will refine you into the Yin Sha Army, denying you reincarnation forever!"
This statement scared Lu Ling, making him shudder all over.
"This... this is an Immortal Treasure I’ve had since birth!" Lu Ling swallowed saliva, unaware that he was the reincarnation of an Immortal Emperor.
"A natal object? It seems, it is either an Innate Supreme Treasure or a treasure from your previous life. Containing so much Power of Laws, it’s very strong. Although not as strong as myself, it is still very remarkable and worthy of pride," boasts the Corpse Monarch.
"Senior, who... who are you? You just said you are a top-tier Immortal Venerate, that’s not correct, right? In my opinion, you are clearly a supreme powerhouse at the Immortal Emperor Level," Lu Ling calmed himself down, rephrasing his speech.
"Immortal Emperor? Is there such a title?" The Corpse Monarch paused, a contorted face congealing above the coffin, its hollow eyes intimidating, "Tell me quickly!"
Lu Ling hurriedly explained:
"Millions of years ago, after the Dark Age of the Immortal Realm was ended, a type of powerhouse emerged, surpassing Immortal Venerates. With control over the Heavenly Mandate, they were revered as Immortal Emperors!"
"With your mighty power, you must be at the Immortal Emperor Level."
"Moreover, judging by the number of Law of Yin Sha emanating from you, you are at least a ten-layered Immortal Emperor!"
Lu Ling had sharp insight.
At a glance, he could tell that hovering around the Corpse Monarch’s coffin were tens of thousands of strands of the Law of Yin Sha.
And this corresponded to a ten-layered Immortal Emperor.
Lu Ling’s words caused the Corpse Monarch’s gaze to concentrate, he said:
"Immortal Emperor?"
"Ha! In our era, there were no Immortal Emperors, we were all called Immortal Venerates. No wonder some Immortal Venerates are so feeble, they can’t even withstand a slap from us."
"Looking at it now, these are two different realms."
"So it seems, I am a Corpse Emperor!"
"Then, the Sun and Moon, these two top-tier Immortal Venerates, should rightly be called Sun Immortal Emperor and Moon Immortal Emperor."
The Corpse Monarch muttered to himself.
Hearing this, Lu Ling’s expression subtly changed.
"Moon Immortal Venerate and Sun Immortal Venerate? Do you know them?" Lu Ling quickly inquired.
The Corpse Monarch snorted coldly:
"More than just acquaintances?!"
"Millions of years ago, I instigated turmoil in the Immortal Realm, sweeping through countless Immortal Kingdoms, crushing unknown numbers of Immortal Venerates, and was about to unify the entire Immortal Realm."
"At that time, I would have been able to create the Yin Sha Immortal Country."
"But who knew, damned Moon Immortal Venerate and Sun Immortal Venerate joined forces to suppress me in this godforsaken place."
"You tell me, do I know them?"
"What about those two, anyway?"
"After millions of years, that couple Moon and Sun, they’re probably dead, right?"
"Hahahaha!"
The Corpse Monarch laughed boisterously.
In front of the black, semi-transparent shield.
Hearing these words, Lu Ling’s mind buzzed intensively.
"So that’s the history."
"Sun Immortal Venerate and Moon Immortal Venerate really did join forces to suppress some terrifying foe, ending the Dark Age of the Immortal Realm and laying the foundation for the Immortal Realm to enter an era of resplendent prosperity."
"Yet, people don’t believe it."
"They think the heroic deeds of Moon Immortal Venerate and Sun Immortal Venerate are fabricated and scoff at them."
Lu Ling slapped his forehead.
Some inexplicable memories surged up.
Originally, he was unaware of the deeds of the Moon Immortal Venerate and the Sun Immortal Venerate, but now, he understood.
This feeling was very strange!
"I must vindicate Moon Immortal Venerate and Sun Immortal Venerate!"
"They ended the Dark Age, suppressed the Corpse Monarch, and saved the Immortal Realm from his wrath; they are the benefactors of the Immortal Realm."
"Such people should not be vilified!"
"And also..."
"Are those who question Moon Immortal Venerate and Sun Immortal Venerate out of their minds?"
"Without the efforts of the two Venerates, could they be alive?"
"Just a bunch of weak and useless cowards who have no strength but only babble nonsense!"
Lu Ling clenched his fists tightly.
Above the coffin.
The Corpse Monarch’s sinister human face sneered:
"It seems that Moon and Sun are truly dead. I used to not believe it, but now, I truly do. In another decade or two, when this sovereign emerges from seclusion, I will make a comeback!"
Lu Ling shrank his neck and said:
"Corpse Monarch, you are merely at the tenth level of Immortal Emperor, why the self-satisfaction? Now is the golden age of the Immortal Realm, with a million Heavenly Immortals and countless Immortal Venerables, not to mention a significant number of Immortal Emperors."
"In addition, there are an unknown number of Heavenly Venerables."
"With just you, also want to make a comeback?"
"Heh heh!"
"In my opinion, once you enter the Immortal Realm, you’ll be eliminated by the strong, posing no threat whatsoever."
Having said that, Lu Ling hugged the Compass tightly, protected himself with the Power of Laws, and gradually retreated.
"Damn slave! How dare you insult me!"
Naturally, the Corpse Monarch was furious. The human face atop the coffin quickly transformed into a huge hand, reaching out to grab Lu Ling.
Hum!
A black semi-transparent shield suddenly burst forth with gold and moonlight glow, blocking the Yin Sha hand from reaching out.
"Heh heh!"
"So it turns out that the so-called Corpse Monarch is truly firmly sealed. If you are capable, why not come after me?"
Lu Ling started to gloat.
He turned around, presenting his back towards the Corpse Monarch’s coffin, patted his butt, and then sped away.
"This infuriates me!"
When had the Corpse Monarch ever suffered such humiliation? His eyes were full of violent colors, wishing he could devour Lu Ling alive.
"You slave, don’t let me catch you!"
The Corpse Monarch, unable to break through the seals set by the Moon Immortal Venerate and the Sun Immortal Venerate, could only curse in rage.
On the ground.
Lu Ling patted his chest, looked towards the distant Gate of the Immortal Realm, his soul still not settled, and said:
"Oh my Heavenly Venerable!"
"I actually mocked an Immortal Emperor Level terrifying powerhouse just now, it was too thrilling. I don’t know why, but I simply despise that person instinctively."
"Now, I have clarified the truth here."
"Next, it’s time for me to return."
"This place seals the Corpse Monarch, logically speaking, the cultivators here cannot be enemies of the Immortal Realm; guarding the Corpse Monarch, they should be allies of our Immortal Realm."
"This matter, I must report truthfully."
Having said that, Lu Ling entered the Gate of the Immortal Realm and disappeared from sight.
A moment later.
In front of the Gate of the Immortal Realm.
Ye Feng, Shi Youyou, Jade God, Hu Feifei, along with the Replica Ancient Saint, appeared out of thin air, followed by the Replica Ancient Saint.
"Sect Leader, just let him go like that? Once the news spreads back to the Immortal Realm, many Immortal Emperors will surely take action. Won’t our Starry Sky World be in danger?"
Hu Feifei expressed her worry.
"No matter, I am here."
An authoritative voice sounded.
Everyone immediately looked in the direction of the voice.
They saw a golden skeleton standing on the ground, with hands behind its back and flames burning in its eye sockets.
"Greetings to the Ancient Holy God!"
Everyone immediately bowed in salute.
The people present almost all knew that the Ancient Holy God was indeed the Tyrant Emperor of the Three Thousand Realms, but they were still accustomed to calling him Ancient Holy God, rather than Tyrant Emperor.
"Actually, it was the Ancient Holy God senior who let me release Lu Ling. I was originally planning to capture him!"
Ye Feng spread his hands helplessly, explaining.
