Chapter 388 A Ruthless Man Turns His Face

But in the end it was all in vain. There was a Great Dao rune there, radiating eternal light, blocking all the strange things and making it difficult for the dense black mist to cross the boundary.

What should we do about this place?

Ye Fan asked.

Although the dense black mist was blocked, a faint wisp of black mist still seeped in, and it was only a matter of time before it spread further. Moreover, there was the danger that the Dark Sovereign might cross over at any moment.

This left the three of them somewhat perplexed, unsure of what to do.

Ultimately, the group decided to seal the place away, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable if someone were to break in.

"boom!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the four powerful beings at the Emperor level joined forces to set up a seal, isolating this place from the world to prevent the spread of dark matter and to prevent any Supreme Beings from attacking from within.

"This is much safer."

Ye Fan's tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed slightly.

He cared deeply for the world and had a great sense of compassion, much like the Great Accomplished Saint Body in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone. He couldn't bear to see the people of the world suffer and always wanted to do his best until the very end.

At this moment, the dark matter was sealed, and the four royal experts joined forces. Even if a dark supreme being crossed over, it would be difficult to break through the defense in a short time.

"Although this matter has come to a temporary end, why do I still have a feeling of unease?"

Ji Lingyun frowned.

He always felt an ominous aura swirling around him, that something big was about to happen, but when he tried to deduce it in his mind, he couldn't figure it out.

In the end, they had no choice but to give up and deal with whatever came their way.

Moreover, he is no longer afraid of the darkness's corruption. Even if a true immortal descends to earth, he will not be afraid, unless he is a mortal immortal or above.

"I'll stay here and guard the place, just in case something goes wrong."

Just as the four were about to leave, Ye Fan said that he wanted to stay there in case anything unexpected happened.

After a moment of contemplation, Ji Lingyun nodded.

He left behind his faith body and also left the Void Ancient Realm behind in case of any unforeseen events.

This precious mirror has drunk the blood of countless royal-level experts, and it can be said to be almost indistinguishable from a celestial weapon. Leaving it here will definitely be of great use.

After the four made their decision, Faith Body and Ye Fan stayed behind to oversee the Undying Mountain.

Ji Lingyun and the Ruthless Emperor returned to the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone.

The two of them were silent.

Ji Lingyun felt a little strange. He looked at the Empress standing in front of him, unsure of how to speak.

It wasn't until quite some time had passed that the Empress slowly turned around.

Her white robes fluttered, her peerless beauty was breathtaking, almost unreal.

The soft moonlight fell on her face, adding to her stunning beauty.

“I have shown you my past before. My brother died at the hands of the Feathered God Dynasty.”

Her voice was cold, but it clearly contained a chilling murderous intent.

“Back then, you taught me the methods and guided me onto the path of cultivation, but in the end it was too late. You couldn’t save my brother. He bled out and died there.”

The Empress looked grief-stricken. For a Heavenly Emperor to reveal such emotions at this moment showed the profound impact that young man had left on her heart.

"I used to think Ye Fan was my older brother, but he wasn't."

“Not long ago, I found my brother again. He appeared in those dark substances and asked me to save him, but I failed again this time.”

The Empress said sadly.

But these words stirred up a storm in Ji Lingyun's heart.

Is Ye Fan not the brother of the Ruthless Great Emperor?

And that boy even sent a ruthless person to save him?

This is impossible!

He had already personally experienced how terrifying that dark matter was; even with his current level of cultivation, he was almost corrupted and fell into darkness.

Moreover, that young man.

You should know that the origin of this thing comes from the heavens above. It once corrupted a Celestial Emperor, forcing him to seal himself away and fall into a deep sleep.

“You need to understand, your brother couldn’t possibly be in that dark matter…”

Before Ji Lingyun could finish speaking, the Empress interrupted him.

"I could sense the fluctuations of his primordial spirit and his life imprint at that time. There's no mistake!"

“I know that substance can destroy a person’s primordial spirit, but how could it be exactly the same as my brother’s?”

Ji Lingyun was speechless.

It seems that the Empress has been completely infatuated with that young man, losing the composure and judgment that an emperor should have.

That boy was merely a nascent, undeveloped ancient holy body; how could he possibly withstand the erosion of that dark substance?

Moreover, he has been dead for countless years, so it is impossible for him to be resurrected!

"I must break in, even if it's a trap, I will bring him back."

The Empress spoke, having already made her decision.

As soon as she finished speaking, a glint flashed in the Empress's eyes, and she walked towards Ji Lingyun.

“I have practiced your secret technique, and the Devouring Heaven Demon Art has also inherited its advantages, which is that it can devour the source. If I want to be fearless of erosion, I can only rely on you.”

In an instant, Ji Lingyun became alert, and his divine power erupted, ready to unleash an attack at any moment.

Is the Empress going to attack him and refine his essence?

"Don't misunderstand, I only need your essence and the light of your primordial spirit."

"impossible!"

Ji Lingyun refused; how could she possibly give her primordial spirit light and life essence to an outsider?

This concerns everything about him; if anything goes wrong, the consequences could be dire.

"That's up to you!"

The Empress spoke, and with a wave of her hand, she summoned the Bronze Immortal Palace, unleashing this immortal artifact in an attempt to suppress Ji Lingyun.

"That can't stop me!"

Ji Lingyun unleashed the Heavenly Question Divine Sword in his right hand, its divine light dazzling, directly clashing against the Bronze Immortal Palace.

After so many years, his cultivation has actually reached this level.

But what happened next made Ji Lingyun's expression change drastically.

A flash of light appeared in the Empress's hand, and an ancient, weathered pagoda materialized in her grasp.

"Desolate Tower!"

Ji Lingyun gasped, her scalp tingling.

This thing is actually in the hands of the Ruthless Great Emperor!

"boom!"

The desolate tower was unleashed, radiating brilliant immortal light and rising with unparalleled runes, as if a vast immortal realm was pressing down upon it.

In an instant, Ji Lingyun was suppressed and unable to move, bound here.

"Are you crazy!"

He never expected that this ruthless person could go to such lengths for that so-called brother.

"laugh!"

The Empress drew her divine sword and slashed down directly.

Sword energy traversed thousands of miles, and celestial light permeated the entire desolate and forbidden zone.

This is a ruthless sword strike, powerful enough to destroy the world!

"boom!"

Ji Lingyun's expression was serious. He unleashed his full power and forcefully broke free from the suppression of the Desolate Tower, trying to escape.

"Here comes the sword!"

He roared to the sky, his divine power almost boiling over, like ten thousand volcanoes erupting, ready to burn everything.

"Buzz!"

The Heavenly Questioning Divine Sword trembled, sensing that its master was in danger, and rushed over instantly.

The entire Eastern Wilderness trembled as the overwhelming pressure swept across the heavens and the earth.

"That's the Emperor's weapon. Could it be that another supreme being has been born?"
