"The second treasure is that ancient book. You should have seen it too. That ancient book is the complete Bright Emperor Scripture. It was left behind by the Bright Immortal Emperor. It contains the mysteries of the Bright Heavenly Dao."
"If you get this ancient book, it is equivalent to you getting the complete inheritance of the Bright Emperor. At that time, with this Bright Emperor Scripture, perhaps you will be able to comprehend the Bright Heavenly Dao, and even break through to the Immortal Emperor."
Di Hongluan said slowly to Ling Xiao.
"What about this jade box? What's inside it?"
Ling Xiao asked calmly.
"Do you really want to know what's in the jade box?"
Di Hongluan smiled bitterly.
"Your goal is this jade box, right? Since you want to take it away, then I have the right to know what is inside the jade box, right?"
Ling Xiao said calmly.
Seeing Ling Xiao was so persistent, Di Hongluan couldn't continue to refuse.
"Okay, I can tell you, but I hope you don't tell anyone else about this. Inside the jade box is a remnant of the Bright Immortal Emperor's soul!"
"The Immortal Emperor of Light has not truly fallen. As long as this remnant soul is brought back to our Immortal Court of Light, then with some means, we can help the Immortal Emperor of Light reincarnate."
Di Hongluan said slowly.
"A remnant of the soul of the Bright Immortal Emperor? No wonder you don't want any treasures but this jade box."
Ling Xiao nodded, a gleam of brilliance in his eyes.
If it is the residual soul of the Bright Immortal Emperor, then it does have a very important role and significance to the Bright Immortal Court.
The Immortal Emperor of Light, as the founder of the Immortal Court of Light, once dominated the world with his unparalleled strength, and suppressed an entire era.
If he could be reincarnated and reborn, once he fully grows up, he would be a powerful Immortal Emperor.
In comparison, this sword and the Emperor of Light Scripture are not that important.
After all, the real eternal imperial weapon, the Sword of Light, and the complete inheritance of the Immortal Emperor of Light are now in the Immortal Court of Light.
"Can I take this Yuxia away now?"
Di Hongluan looked at Ling Xiao eagerly and said.
"Can."
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed and he nodded.
He did not immediately take down the sword and the book in the void, but his eyes fell on the corpse of the Bright Immortal Emperor in front of him. This was also the source of Ling Xiao's uneasiness.
He wanted to see what was so strange about the Immortal Emperor of Light.
Ling Xiao’s powerful soul spread out and slightly reached out to the Immortal Emperor of Light.
But at this moment, the World Tree hummed and erupted with an extremely violent vibration.
The source of the vibration was the jade box in the void that was already in the hands of Di Hongluan.
"Oh no, there's something wrong with the jade box!"
Ling Xiao said quickly.
But it was too late for him to say this. At this moment, Di Hongluan, with an expression of great excitement and joy in her eyes, slowly opened the jade box.
boom!
A blazing light burst out from the jade box.
In an instant, countless black mists rose up, and a cold, dark and strange breath gushed out from it.
A black ghost face, looking extremely weird, suddenly pounced towards Di Hongluan.
Boom!
Fairy light rose around Di Hongluan, runes intertwined, and a dazzling light bloomed between her eyebrows.
As the little princess of the Bright Fairy Court, Di Hongluan naturally has many defensive treasures on her.
At this moment, realizing that Di Hongluan was in danger, they all automatically activated their master protection skills.
However, those powerful defensive treasures were completely useless in front of that ghost face and were torn apart one after another.
That ghost face turned into a black light and instantly entered the sea of consciousness between Di Hongluan's eyebrows and rushed towards her soul.
“Get lost!”
At this moment, a bright light shone from between Di Hongluan's eyebrows, and an ancient and mysterious figure emerged, emitting the vast power of the Eternal Emperor of Heaven, protecting Di Hongluan's soul within it.
That was the soul restriction left by the Immortal Emperor of the Bright Immortal Court in the sea of consciousness between Di Hongluan's eyebrows. The purpose was to prevent others from taking over Di Hongluan's soul.
After all, Di Hongluan possessed the Supreme Body of Light and was one of the two most outstanding people in the Light Immortal Court. If she left the Light Immortal Court, the Immortal Emperor of the Light Immortal Court would naturally not let her be in any danger.
"You are just a little fellow who has just entered the Immortal Emperor stage. It's just a mark. Do you dare to stop me?"
The ghost face grinned fiercely, and immediately separated into black chains of order, containing the power fluctuations of corrosiveness and all-devouring, and suddenly wrapped around the figure.
The power of that black face was extremely strange and peculiar. Even though there were soul restrictions left by the Immortal Emperor in Di Hongluan's soul, at this moment, those exquisite runes were rapidly weakening, as if they would be completely shattered in a short time.
This sudden event was beyond the expectations of Ling Xiao and Di Hongluan.
They never imagined that there would be an extremely powerful dark creature in the jade box, hiding in it deliberately, wanting to take over Di Hongluan's body.
Although Ling Xiao had sensed something was wrong before and felt the breath of the dark creature, he focused all his attention on the Immortal Emperor of Light and never thought that the dark creature was hiding in the jade box.
At this moment, Di Hongluan was suddenly caught in a critical moment of life and death crisis.
"Do you want to save him?"
Ling Xiao pondered in his heart.
He saw that at this moment Di Hongluan's entire body was filled with dark energy, with only the area between her eyebrows still emitting a faint but bright light, but it seemed as if it was in danger of being extinguished at any time.
If he didn't take action, it wouldn't be long before Di Hongluan would be completely possessed by the dark creature.
"It is rumored that the Immortal Emperor of Light died in a great battle with a Immortal Emperor of Darkness. Could it be that these dark energies were left behind by the Immortal Emperor of Darkness?"
Ling Xiao thought secretly in his heart.
His current cultivation level is only at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal King realm. If he rashly confronts a Dark Immortal Emperor, even if that Dark Immortal Emperor is only a remnant soul left, he would be in danger of falling.
Therefore, Ling Xiao did not act rashly, but instantly activated the World Tree between his eyebrows.
The World Tree is a treasure that can communicate with the Eternal Heavenly Dao and even breed a new Eternal Heavenly Dao. Even in the Eternal Immortal Realm, it is extremely precious. Even if the Immortal Emperor sees it, he will desperately snatch it.
At this moment, under Ling Xiao's urging, the World Tree shone brightly and slowly floated out from between his eyebrows.
The World Tree is surrounded by chaotic light, as if it is rooted in chaos. All around it are scenes of the birth and death of three thousand great worlds, which looks very strange.
Following Ling Xiao's urging, a branch of the World Tree came across the void and probed towards the sea of consciousness between Di Hongluan's eyebrows.
