In fact, there were already many important figures in the Yinshan Tunnel before, and these important figures naturally came from the cultivation sects.
They all seemed very low-key at the moment and chose to travel light.
In front of the Empress, no matter how high-profile you are, you will eventually become a supporting role, at least for now.
Now everyone's eyes are on the empress, and no one noticed that many of the big figures who originally lived deep in the sect have arrived.
They also came here for pilgrimage, but their minds were not as simple as those of ordinary people.
Over the years, the imperial court has grown so powerful that these once high-ranking sects have gradually become its vassals.
Naturally, there are many sects here that are dissatisfied, but they are helpless.
First, there are precedents. Those who jumped the most enthusiastically and wanted to oppose the court had grass several feet high on their graves; second, they really needed the help of the empress, and the training materials provided by the court every year were something they had to pay attention to; third, no one knew the empress's strength, because almost no one had seen her take action.
Everyone knows that the empress is very powerful, but no one knows to what extent.
Some people say that she is not at the level of moving mountains, while others say that she is at the level of saints. The confusion between the truth and the lies is really a headache.
But without exception, all the masters who had tried to assassinate the empress had grass growing on their graves.
The empress's mystery is undoubtedly beneficial to her rule. As a person in power, this kind of enigma is necessary.
Because unknown enemies are often the most terrifying.
You've revealed all your cards, so what's the point?
But this time the empress wants to take action personally and show her strength. Why?
Of course, it is to become a god, the most irreplaceable god in the entire Tang Dynasty.
The empress has stayed in the deep palace for too long, and many sects are ready to make moves, spreading rumors about the empress's cultivation level, just to weaken her influence in the hearts of the people.
The Empress's move this time was to shut everyone up, and it even had the flavor of a warning to others.
So in the eyes of these practitioners, this was an adventure for the empress.
If she acts strong enough, strong enough to make everyone afraid of her, these people will naturally stop.
But if she doesn't show enough strength, then it's hard to say.
Over the years, there have been many people who wanted to kill the empress, but out of caution, they have remained silent.
The crowd moved slowly along with the empress's chariot, like a tide.
Finally, these people were stopped.
Because in two miles, the Yinshan Tunnel will be reached.
The loud cheers temporarily drowned out the ghostly cries coming from the cave, but gradually people began to notice something was amiss.
They came back to their senses from their excitement and remembered the rumors they had heard before - the Empress came this time to deal with some strange matters.
The scholars who had been arguing about whether there were ghosts in the world had already quieted down and only felt a chill on their backs.
At that time, they were so busy arguing that they actually forgot the purpose of the empress's visit.
The empress came here to deal with some strange things. Does this prove that there are ghosts in this world?
So Gu Jiu, who was far away, couldn't help but wonder, could the empress's high-profile trip this time be partly because she wanted the people to see the truth?
The court’s previous strategy had always been to cover up the truth, but people always change.
The Empress is probably the one who conceived these strategies. If she changes her mind, many rules in this world will change accordingly.
This is the power of power. A single thought of one person is enough to change the course of history.
As more and more people heard the strange sound, the atmosphere in the field became increasingly deserted.
The one hundred Black Armored Soldiers stood there in their pitch-black armor, like wooden stakes.
The empress got off the carriage and walked up alone.
There was a not-so-steep slope in front of the Yinshan Tunnel. She was walking on it wearing a dragon and phoenix brocade robe.
The tail of her robe was very long, and from a distance, she looked like a phoenix about to fly.
At this time, no one spoke, and even everyone's breathing became cautious and rapid.
Gu Jiu stood in the distance, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Until now, the empress has not shown any strength.
There was no fluctuation of spiritual energy on her body, she was just walking there, but she was the focus of everyone's attention.
It seemed as if she was the only one walking alone in this world, and everyone else was not worthy of walking with her.
I am not even qualified to compare with him.
When the Black Armored Soldiers saw their master coming in person, they knelt down on the ground in unison.
The empress walked slowly in front of them, her long dragon and phoenix brocade robe dragging on the ground, as bright as blood.
For thousands of years in this world, she is the only one who has been born with the dragon and phoenix.
A woman with gray hair and white clothes stood not far behind Gu Jiu, her expression as calm as water.
While Gu Jiu was observing the empress, he inadvertently observed her.
This person's aura was also very deep. Gu Jiu did not use any means to observe the other party, but he felt that the other party was above the Moving Mountains Realm and was a sword cultivator.
"I'm afraid there are several saints in this pilgrimage?" Gu Jiu grinned and thought to himself.
Along the way, he learned that there were eight saints in the Tang Kingdom, and Jing'e was the chief among them.
This trip to Galan was not only a journey to obtain the sword, but also a journey to gain knowledge.
It is very important to open the map. After all, he is still completely in the dark about the entire situation of the Tang Dynasty.
When he passed through the Yinshan Tunnel before, he discovered that there was something strange in the tunnel. He didn't expect that he had only stayed near Galan City for less than a month before something strange happened inside.
Even from such a distance, he could feel the evil energy rising to the sky.
These evil auras were not concealed at all, as if they wanted to let the world know of their existence.
The empress finally stood in front of the Yinshan Tunnel. The cold wind inside blew on her cold face and ruffled her hair, but her expression remained unchanged like a sculpture.
Although his body looks quite weak, at this moment he gives people an exceptionally tall feeling.
"You guys stay here and guard well outside." After saying this, the empress stepped into the cave, and everyone couldn't help but exclaim.
The empress didn't even bring the one hundred black armored soldiers with her. She wanted to solve the problem alone.
Gu Jiu looked at the dragon and phoenix brocade robe disappearing at the cave entrance, and his expression became solemn.
At that moment, he even had an illusion that the empress's seemingly fragile shoulders were like the backbone of the Yin Mountains.
No, it’s higher than Yinshan Mountain!
Chapter 64: Giving and Grabbing
The dark cave entrance, the blood-red cinnabar, the empress walked into the tunnel alone under the gaze of everyone.
At this moment, the cries of thousands of ghosts echoed in her ears, drilling into her ears like maggots in her tarsal bones, but the expression on her face did not change at all.
There was complete silence outside the cave, leaving only the howling of the wind like a ghost.
From time to time, the ghost cries in the cave would turn into hideous laughter or the sound of children shouting, as if there was a street full of people inside, which was creepy to hear.
The hundred or so Black Armored Soldiers stood outside the tunnel, looking at each other, feeling extremely tormented.
They didn't expect that the empress didn't even take them with her.
The fiery red robe dragged on the ground, very similar to the cinnabar spread on the ground, as if they had merged into one.
The empress walked in the tunnel without saying a word. She looked very weak, like a willow in the wind, but at the same time she seemed very domineering, as if no one in heaven or on earth could affect her steps.
As she continued to go deeper, the ghost cries became more and more intense. If an ordinary person stood there, he would probably go crazy if these sounds entered his brain.
This feeling is like tens of thousands of adult flies flying around your ears. How would you feel?
"Noisy." The empress raised her eyebrows coldly and said.
The sound was not loud, but it was very penetrating, and echoed in the tunnel with a slight anger.
Yes, even though there were thousands of shrill cries in the cave, these two words still penetrated them and reached deep into the tunnel.
This voice carried an unparalleled dominance, so much so that the shrill cries suddenly dimmed a lot.
Soon, the entire cave, which was filled with noise, became silent, leaving only the rustling sound of the empress walking alone in the cave on her phoenix shoes.
The people outside also heard the word "noisy". Some of them were so scared that they covered their chests and sat on the ground. They found that the deterrent power of this sound was even stronger than the crying of ghosts.
After hearing these two words, Gu Jiu frowned slightly and couldn't help feeling a little confused.
The two words uttered by the empress seemed understated, but they were actually extremely powerful, and they achieved a resounding effect in their ordinary words.
But even so, Gu Jiu still couldn't determine the empress's realm, because the voice was not supported by the realm.
Even if a cultivator has not reached the Mountain Moving Realm, his voice can still achieve this penetrating effect. However, the deterrent power carried by the Empress's voice is beyond the reach of cultivators at the Mountain Moving Realm or even the Saint Realm.
Rather than saying that this is a state of mind, it is better to say that it is a kind of "temperament".
The aura of an emperor!
The empress continued walking in the tunnel, and then a series of crackling sounds suddenly came from the walls around her, as if countless sharp claws were scratching on them.
The empress did not stop and continued to move forward until she appeared at the area where the collapse was most serious.
There was light in the cave, from a row of swaying torches placed nearby.
This kerosene is specially made by the military and can burn for half a month without extinguishing.
There were still some scaffolding left over from repairing the cave wall in the collapsed area. It was obvious that someone had tried to repair the cave wall before, but later had to stop work.
The color of the fire in the cave seemed a little strange, a little green, as if a ferocious evil spirit's head could emerge from it at any time.
At this point, the scratching sounds coming from the cave wall became more and more obvious, until the entire cave wall seemed to be alive.
The empress stood there, her brows slightly raised.
Seeing the cave wall becoming more and more "active", some bad memories came to her mind.
Twenty years ago, these walls killed many people.
At that time, the people stood here crying and wailing, and were quickly swallowed up and then spit out.
What he ate was a whole person, but what he vomited out was a pile of human skin.
They eat people without leaving any bones, but spit out their skins. This scene is very similar to humans eating oranges.
She could not leave the palace at that time, and she did not see these scenes with her own eyes. She only learned about the situation through that seemingly simple painting and those cold memorials.
Giving away 100,000 people is not a large number.
For someone like her, one hundred thousand people are probably no different from one hundred thousand horses or one hundred thousand sheep.
But at that time she felt very uncomfortable and could not sleep at night because even if there were 100,000 ants, they were still her ants.
How can I "give" my things away?
It’s more accurate to say that it was taken away by these things rather than being given as a gift.
Being robbed of even a penny is still being robbed, and she doesn't like the feeling of being robbed.
So, she came today.
The empress faced the "scarred" cave wall, her eyes becoming more and more indifferent.
There was silence outside the cave, but things were getting lively again inside.
Click, click...
As these sounds continued to ring out, pieces of white bones suddenly appeared on the wall of the cave.
If the entire cave wall was alive, then these pieces of white bones would look like its hair, constantly swaying as if they were about to break through the wall.
"Twenty years ago, I gave you 100,000 people to eat. Do you think there will be such a good thing this time?" The empress said indifferently.
At this moment, a shrill scream suddenly rang out, as if thousands of wronged souls were crying and shouting.
There was no blood around, but there was a bloody smell.
Soon, the entire cave wall began to turn red, as if blood was seeping out. The white bones continued to protrude out, becoming denser and denser, looking like some strange fluff. Combined with the faint firelight, it was simply a scene of purgatory on earth.
The empress said nothing and took two steps forward, only one step away from the cave wall.
