Although Qin Ming expected Bai Xiaochun to find out something, he did not expect to lock on a target so quickly and accurately. He was also very cautious, raised his hands, and pressed towards the void, freezing the time and space in a radius of five hundred miles, everything stood still, and after confirming that there were no abnormal fluctuations, he began to concentrate on exploring the Ghost Howling Jungle.
The surface of the Ghost Howling Jungle is the same as it was detected, there is no abnormality, it is just a normal swamp jungle, without any trace of transformation. There was no restriction or other defenses below, except for the criss-crossing underground rivers and sticky soil, but Qin Ming really found the source of the dead energy that Bai Xiaochun was referring to.
It was a human-shaped skeleton buried 3,000 meters deep in the ground, sitting cross-legged and sucking the poisonous gas in the ground, and it was also filled with a strong dead air. He seemed to have existed for many years, and he was born with wisdom, with black energy entrenched in his skull, and dark fire dancing in his eye sockets.
The skeleton of this skeleton is tough and crystal clear, with a faint luster, and a rusty iron sword is inserted obliquely in front of it. It may be a weapon in life, and it is reluctant to discard it. There are hundreds of coffins standing around it, all of which are sleeping creatures, including humans and beasts, all surrounded by strong death energy and soul power.
"Found it?" Bai Xiaochun noticed the slight change in Qin Ming's expression.
"Don't freeze time and space for too long, so as not to alarm him." Old Shura reminded Qin Ming that if there is really the soul of the Mandate of Heaven, it must be very powerful and vigilant, and any abnormality may cause vigilance.
Qin Ming dispersed the frozen time and space, and his consciousness withdrew from there: "I found a skeleton, gave birth to spiritual wisdom, and a unique soul energy, but..."
"but what?"
"That's a normal evolved skeleton, with no signs of being controlled by erosion, nor the slightest bit of imperial prestige." Qin Ming shook his head, in his own world, he could clearly judge anything. The skeleton is indeed a bit weird, but that's all, it's not the Emperor of Destiny he was looking for.
Bai Xiaochun frowned slightly, did he make a mistake
The elf queen breathed a sigh of relief, it's better to be wrong, it's better not to have any shadow of a great emperor in this world, otherwise it will mean a new round of war.
"There's only one skeleton there?" Bai Xiaochun was still worried, he was different from Qin Ming and the Queen, he investigated it himself, and had a more real understanding of the anomaly.
"There are more than 300 coffins, which are providing energy to the skeletons. There are people and beasts inside, some of which have rotted, and some seem to be newly captured."
Bai Xiaochun frowned even tighter: "Other than these, is there anything else abnormal?"
"No." Qin Ming shook his head. There was nothing abnormal. With his ability, as long as he carefully probed a place, he could have a weak perception of any secrets buried deeper in the stratum.
"You've wasted too much energy on this, continue to investigate the next one." Old Shura also felt that this death incident was a bit weird, but after searching, he found a skeleton. As long as it is something born in their own world, they don't need to delve into it, and they don't need to interfere. No matter how weird and deep the purpose is, what they are looking for now is the soul or consciousness from the second world.
Bai Xiaochun was silent for a long time, shook his head and didn't want to go any further. "The next thing I want to check is Hongwu Continent. I'm very curious about the stone spirits there. They seem to believe in some kind of totem."
Qin Ming noticed Shi Ling's totem pattern, but as a magical spirit bred in the new world, it's normal to have some unique beliefs of his own, so he never paid attention to it. But Bai Xiaochun can investigate as much as he wants, he has already stated that he will not interfere with any investigation of Bai Xiaochun, he will absolutely let go and trust him.
"It's still the same sentence, pay attention to concealment, and don't disturb anyone." Qin Ming's consciousness gradually dissipated.
The old Shura and the elf queen are also going to disappear. They have already started a comprehensive retreat, trying to hit the emperor's realm, and they can't devote too much energy for a long time.
"Wait!" Bai Xiaochun suddenly called to them, staring at the Devil May Cry Jungle in the distance.
"What's wrong?" Qin ordered their consciousness to condense one after another, and it was rare to see Bai Xiaochun so obsessed with one thing.
"Cover! Still cover!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Hiding in the Devil May Cry Jungle is a cover, and not doing any restrictions is a cover. Putting a skeleton that looks weird but normal is also a cover. More than 300 scary but normal coffins may also be a cover. If nothing happens , the real soul of the emperor...in those more than three hundred coffins." Bai Xiaochun's eyes were burning, insisting on his own investigation results, hoping that Qin Ming could investigate again.
Qin Ming took a deep look at Bai Xiaochun, once again solidified the time and space around him, and a condensed ray of consciousness descended into the depths of the stratum.
More than 300 coffins were scattered around the skeletons in a disorderly manner, and they were filled with surging death energy, continuously sending energy to the skeletons, and the skeletons also continued to feed back, as if they were forging the 'little soldiers' in these coffins.
However, after careful inspection, Qin Ming really noticed something abnormal. Inside one of the coffins, there was a rotten, inconspicuous corpse... which did not output any energy.
Qin Ming continuously strengthened the energy of time and space, confining an area with all his strength, his conscious body rushed straight to the coffin, and then retreated decisively, which lasted for less than half a second.
When the strong space-time energy completely dissipated, the highly decomposed corpse moved slightly and opened its blood-red eyes. It seemed that there was a river of blood entrenched in it, thick and deep. He vigilantly inspected the surrounding coffins and stimulated The skeleton outside inspected the swampy jungle outside instead of him.
After Qin Ming's consciousness dispersed, he directly swept away Bai Xiaochun, and also dispersed the consciousness bodies of the Elf Queen and Shura, cleaning up the traces of their existence.
"How is it?" Bai Xiaochun stood in the dark void, looking at Qin Ming solemnly. Although he insisted on investigating, he didn't fully expect to find anything. After all, it was not good for anyone.
"Emperor Soul! Very weak Emperor Soul!" Qin Ming was silent for a while, and whispered. His conscious body is only a weak touch, but he has captured the soul power inside which is completely different from ordinary energy. Not surprisingly, the ray of soul of Emperor Tianming is very likely to exist in that highly decayed body.
What a cover, what a great cover!
"Sure enough, the second world has found this place." The elf queen sighed softly and closed her eyes.
The most stressful and worrying thing is still about to happen.
Second world? new world!
The big collision similar to the era of heaven and the era of chaos and martial arts will be staged again, but this time it is more serious and dangerous than the chaos of the ancient times!
Nine Heavenly Emperors, Twelve Immortal Territories, Thirty-Six Royal Clans, and the Ancient Clan of the Barren Continent.
What kind of war will this be, and what kind of disaster will it bring to the new world.
However, although the elf queen is unwilling to face the war again, and does not want the new world that has been rescued from all kinds of difficulties to encounter crisis again, if anyone wants to destroy this place, she will fight again to death at all costs!
"The Nether King, please come over and monitor Devil May Cry Jungle personally. Xiaobai, you continue to patrol the land and the ocean, and don't miss any abnormalities." Qin Ming deeply felt that he had chosen the right person. Bai Xiaochun was not only cautious, but also sensitive and persistent. If Bai Xiaochun hadn't insisted just now, he really almost let this place go.
