Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

"This place is harmless to ordinary people who have no sins, but it is a forbidden area for those who are gods or those who have sins!"

"The crimson flames will burn away its divine power until it is exhausted and reduced to ashes..."

Jiang Ciyou turned around and handed the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand to Yue Xiling. "Xiling, if you can wield this sword, the Emperor's aura contained within it will protect you and allow you to enter safely!"

"This is also the key to your ability to maintain your current appearance and see him..."

Yue Xiling took the Xuanyuan Sword, took a deep breath, and made up her mind, "I understand!"

She tried to pull the Xuanyuan Sword out of its sheath, but it was as if it were welded shut and she couldn't pull it out at all.

Yue Xiling frowned slightly and tried to infuse it with divine power again, but there was still no reaction. This sword seemed to have no affinity for her...

She thought for a moment, closed her eyes, and channeled the extreme cold sword intent through her hands to the Xuanyuan Sword. This time, the Xuanyuan Sword reacted.

Yue Xiling vaguely saw a human emperor, radiating overwhelming divine power, draw his sword and slash at her...

She was instantly knocked away by the Xuanyuan Sword, fell to the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the Xuanyuan Sword also slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.

“tide Ling…”

Jiang Ciyou helped her up and began to heal her wounds with his own divine power. "You need to think this through. If you can't control the Xuanyuan Sword, you might die..."

"It's alright..."

Yue Xiling wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. "The Xuanyuan Sword is also a sword. I still remember the sword control techniques left by the Sword God. I'm sure I can master it!"

Jiang Ciyou didn't speak, but quietly healed her wounds. She knew that Yue Xiling had been as stubborn as a mule since she was a child, and once she made up her mind about something, she would not give up easily.

And so, Yue Xiling was repeatedly knocked away by the Xuanyuan Sword, while Jiang Ciyou silently healed her wounds from the sidelines...

After countless attempts, Yue Xiling knelt on the ground, her face pale, her hands, stained with blood, still gripping the Xuanyuan Sword tightly, refusing to let go.

Just as the Emperor was about to swing his sword at her again, a sword suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking the Emperor's attack.

Yue Xiling looked up and saw the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, his sword... no, it seemed to be more mysterious and profound than his sword!

The sword shook off the Human Emperor and flew to Yue Xiling's front. Yue Xiling was stunned for a moment, then directly grasped the hilt. Instantly, a tremendous divine power surged into her body.

what's the situation?

Jiang Ciyou sensed the powerful divine force that suddenly surged within her body. Before she could react, she saw Yue Xiling forcefully pull out the Xuanyuan Sword...

Meanwhile, in the realm of gods, in the Heavenly Court.

"Ziwei, you're actually helping her?"

Seeing the actions of the Ziwei Emperor, the Gouchen Emperor was a little surprised. "Aren't you afraid that the Jade Emperor will find out that you are interfering in the affairs of the Great Thousand Gods Realm?"

"What's there to be afraid of?"

Emperor Ziwei withdrew his hand. "Unless it is specially permitted by the Yellow Emperor, the Xuanyuan Sword can only be drawn by someone with the aura of a human emperor. This girl has no chance of drawing it!"

"If that kid finds out that this girl died because of this, he'll probably feel guilty for a long time. What if it causes trouble?"

"I'm only thinking of Taiqing's well-being, and I don't want him to lose money!"

"If the Jade Emperor gets involved, we'll use Taiqing to pressure him. I don't believe he'd dare question Taiqing over such a trivial matter..."

Chapter 437: The Remnant Spirit of Chi You

The desolate wasteland of the gods, the tomb of the Nine Li soldiers.

Li Moxuan awoke from the darkness, rubbing his head with one hand as he sat up from the ground. Had he returned?

He observed his surroundings and realized he was in a huge circular hall with walls covered in various ancient weapons such as halberds, spears, swords, bows, and crossbows.

"Emperor Taizong? Emperor Gouchen?"

Li Moxuan tried calling out, but received no response. Instead, he heard Li Cunxiao's puzzled voice.

What is Your Majesty saying?

"nothing……"

Li Moxuan sat up from the ground. He was now certain that he was back. This should be Chi You's tomb. Where were Cao Yanbing and the others?

Never mind, let's get down to business first!

He picked up the Absolute Fiend Sword that had fallen to the ground and poured his divine power into it. The Absolute Fiend Sword immediately flashed red light, and all the weapons around it instantly detached from the wall and transformed into the Nine Li War Spirits, kneeling down.

"Welcome back, Lord Commander!"

Good grief, so you only recognize the sword, not the person, huh? But that does save me some trouble!

Li Moxuan gripped the Absolute Fiend Sword tightly and, following its guidance, stepped into a tomb passage. After walking only a few steps, he heard the sounds of fighting coming from afar.

"The Formless Fire Emperor!"

Cao Yanbing thrust the Ten Kings of Hell into the ground, and his body instantly erupted with fierce flames, engulfing the Jiuli War Spirits that surged towards him.

Yuan Xichen raised his hand and waved it, and the talisman in his hand turned into a shield that surrounded the three of them and blocked Cao Yanbing's flames.

"Hey, Cao Yanbing, watch your step!"

Gila, who had undergone a special fusion and transformed into a lizardman, stood back to back with Cao Yanbing. "Why were you burning me just now? Didn't you see me?"

"Didn't you enjoy eating my fire in the Forest of the Sky Gods? What are you afraid of?"

"That's right!"

Gila then remembered that her guardian spirit, Salamander, was a fire-eating lizard. "Cao Yanbing, then burn some more towards me later!"

"Dream on! Go do it yourself!"

"My lord, be careful!"

A giant hammer burning with raging flames swept across, shattering the Jiuli War Spirit that was attempting to ambush Cao Yanbing.

At this moment, Xu Chu had transformed from a guardian spirit into a guardian god, and his entire body of iron armor was melted by soul fire into broken armor pieces with a black and red lava-like texture.

His iron helmet cracked open, revealing wildly flying gray-white hair, eyes radiating golden light, left shoulder armor transformed into a red tiger's head, and a blood-red character for "loyalty" was engraved on his bare right shoulder.

Xu Chu's wrist was wrapped in an iron chain formed from soul fire, with the other end connected to his giant hammer. Wherever his tiger claw boots stepped, the ground was instantly scorched black, leaving deep tiger claw marks.

"My lord, these bastards are nothing to fear, but they're just impossible to kill, which is very troublesome!"

On the other side, Dian Wei's eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body was covered in black and gold heavy armor. His shoulder armor was shaped like two complete heads of Evil Lai, revealing sharp fangs.

He wore a double-horned helmet, with two curved black horns standing upright on the top, their tips gleaming coldly. The iron mask was completely removed, revealing a resolute face covered with scars.

He gripped two black-gold iron halberds with black tips that exuded a murderous aura, and a dark cloak spread out behind him, embroidered with the blood-red character "Wei".

Dian Wei cleaved the charging Jiuli war spirit in two with a single halberd strike. "My lord, we must find a way to break this deadlock as soon as possible!"

"Hey, Cao Yanbing, how come your guardian spirit can step into the Ghost King power form?"

While Beiluo Shimen and Shi Lingming repelled the Jiuli War Spirit, they asked a question.

"That's not called Ghost King Power, that's called Guardian Deity. Besides, Beiluo, instead of asking this, why don't you hurry up and turn your monkey into the Great Sage Equal to Heaven and tear this place down!"

"Wouldn't we be buried alive then?"

"That's right, Cao Yanbing, think before you act!"

Gila, who had been beaten and sent back, asked Yuan Xichen, "Grand Tutor, we can't hold on much longer. Have you come up with a way to break this deadlock?"

"I've figured it out!"

"Then break it quickly!"

"no problem!"

Yuan Xichen snapped his fingers, and the surrounding Jiuli war spirits instantly stopped their attack and took several steps back.

"Wow, that's awesome, Grand Master!" Gila couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Of course, otherwise how could he be my grandson's teacher!" Upon hearing this, Bei Luoshimen became quite smug.

"What's so great about it? Look at this!"

Looking in the direction Cao Yanbing pointed, they saw that the Jiuli War Spirits had turned around and knelt down in front of a tomb passage.

Cao Yanbing gripped the Ten Kings of Hell tightly. "Be careful, the big boss is probably here!"

"The big boss?"

Li Moxuan, holding the Absolute Killing Sword, walked out of the tomb passage.

Seeing these familiar faces, he was filled with the joy of a long-awaited reunion, but he said aloud, "I've been listening for so long, and nobody seems to care whether I'm alright or not?"

"We trusted you, okay?"

Cao Yanbing breathed a sigh of relief. He had to admit that having this guy around really made him feel safe, and all the pressure disappeared.

He put away the Ten Kings of Hell, picked up the Dragon-Seeking Ruler that had fallen to the ground, and complained, "This Chi You is really a poor bastard; there's nothing but traps and mechanisms in his tomb..."

"There are still quite a few weapons!"

Beiluoshimen pointed to the ancient war weapon hanging on the wall, "Do you want to take one back with you?"

"No, those things were all transformed from these weapons..."

Ignoring Cao Yanbing, Yuan Xichen walked up to Li Moxuan and paused for a moment, "Why do you look so old?"

Getting old?

Li Moxuan quickly realized what was happening, removed the Myriad Forms Mask from his face, revealing his still youthful face. "It's nothing, it's just a mask..."

Although Yuan Xichen was puzzled, he didn't dwell on it too much. He gestured towards the Absolute Fiend Sword in his hand and asked, "Is the matter settled?"

"not yet……"

At this moment, the tomb began to shake, followed by a muffled sound that suddenly echoed in the room.

"Young man, why do you possess this sword?"

This must be the remnant spirit on Chi You's corpse, right?

Li Moxuan is now a fifth-level immortal being, so he naturally wouldn't take a mere remnant spirit seriously. He asked indifferently, "Are you a remnant spirit from Chi You's corpse?"

"What remnant spirit? I am the Lord of the Nine Li Armies!"

A cloud of black mist gathered in the air and took on a human shape, revealing scarlet eyes, and roared.

"I advise you to think carefully before you act!"
