Chapter Thirty-One: The King of Chu Jiang

  That Princess Jade True gave Bai Qi's green token was a relatively precious top-grade artifact in the Dragon Tiger Mountain, called the Heavenly Corpse Token.

  Wearing this Corpse Seal on one's body, even if not in use, can exert a suppressive effect on zombie-like spirits. Dispelling corpse poison is also very swift; the preciousness of this object lies in its ability to be reused repeatedly. If stuck onto a zombie's Mud Ball Palace, it can temporarily control it and command it to fight using the Dragon Tiger Mountain's Daoist methods.

  Princess Yu Zhen was simply naive, not foolish. She didn't want to hurt Bai Qi either, because outside the mausoleum there was still Bai Jian. She was quite favored by her father, who had once told her that Bai Jian had 3,000 elite soldiers by his side, making him almost invincible on the battlefield. The True Dragon Seven Kill Spear itself was a battle formation technique that could absorb the power of soldiers.

  The Bai family's kung fu is close to Taoist magic, and Princess Yu Zhen also fears that Bai Jian can sense the situation of his son.

  "White young master, it's very dangerous outside the mausoleum. The Qi-refining masters of Dragon and Tiger Mountain have already betrayed the Great Jin Dynasty. Your father is fighting right now, if you go out, you will implicate him."

  Bai Qi did not expect Princess Yu Zhen to speak the truth, he raised his long spear and angrily said: "The cultivators of Dragon Tiger Mountain have rebelled, aren't you also from Dragon Tiger Mountain?"

  Princess Yu Zhen laughed and said: "Bai Qi, have you gone stupid? My father is the current emperor!"

  Bai Qi then made a gesture, slowly lowering the tip of his gun and said: "Princess, forgive me for my rudeness. What should we do now?"

  "Hurry up and capture the zombies while you have the chance, otherwise the people from Dragon Tiger Mountain will come in and refine these zombies, increasing their strength by tens of times. At that time, Duke Yu's country might not be able to withstand it."

  "Father, how is he now?"

  Princess Yu Zhen felt a chill in her heart, and she thought of the scene before entering the mausoleum. That Bai Jian, the Duke of Youguo, had changed horses three times, charging and killing six rounds among the cultivators, and had already killed half of the cultivators who were attacking him. This ferocity of Bai Jian far exceeded her expectations, otherwise she would not have been so polite when she saw Bai Qi.

  If she fought Bai Jian alone, she would probably be pierced by a single bullet and have no power to resist. Adding the protection of her own zombies, it would last at most half a minute.

  "Your father won't be in trouble, but those Qi Refiners might rush into the tomb and if they run into you... I won't be able to protect you either."

  "Why don't we hide in the deepest part of the graveyard, Your Highness? Do you have a map of the graveyard?" Bai Qi knew that when the Great Jin Dynasty destroyed the Great Qin, they had obtained the tomb maps. Although the tombs of the Great Qin did not have ordinary traps, they had many arrays to restrain the aura of cultivators, and the area was vast, making it easy to get lost.

  Bai Qi said this, but it was exactly what Princess Yu Zhen had in mind. She originally wanted to enter the depths of the mausoleum to see if she could find the dragon vein of the previous dynasty. As for the Great Jin Dynasty? The Heavenly Emperor's Inspector only launched the first attack, and after gathering more Qi-refining masters, Bai Jian would probably not be able to hold on either. When the time came, the dynasty would be destroyed, and she would still run to Qingcheng and become a hermit.

  It's not that Princess Yu is heartless, she deeply understands the power of the Heavenly Court. The Great Jin Dynasty wants to resist the Heavenly Court, but it's really powerless. Now only the cultivators in Zhongzhou are involved, if the cultivators in Zhongzhou can't overthrow the Great Jin, the Heavenly Court will mobilize the cultivators from the other eight major states, cross the sea and destroy the Great Jin.

  In the Zhongzhou, even the strongest Qi Refiners in ordinary sects were only at the Return to Void Middle Stage, while in the other eight major states and some smaller sects, there existed Earth Immortals who were cultivators of the Unity stage, capable of moving mountains and filling seas, with the power to control the heavens and earth.

  The Qin Emperor has died, and Zhongzhou wants to produce another dynasty that suppresses the alchemists, but it can't be done.

  "I have a map. Please take a look, White Master." Princess Yuzhen said, taking out a large yellow paper with a complete diagram of the underground mausoleum on it.

  Outside the Qin Wang Mausoleum, the battle was intense. Wei Jian, the Duke of Gui Guo, single-handedly wielded his spear and had already slaughtered nearly half of the Lianqi warriors who were attacking him. In the sky above, Yan Gongzi's eyes blazed with anger, but he could do nothing to help. Within the range of the Qin Wang Mausoleum, Wei Jian's attack distance was even farther than that of the Lianqi warriors, forcing them to close in on him, almost to the point of hand-to-hand combat.

  Yan Gongzi saw that things could not be done, so he steeled himself and shouted: "You all scatter and go kill those soldiers!"

  Bai Jian's strength, more than half of it came from the soldiers of the Feathered Forest Army. In a large army, Bai Jian would not be exhausted at all. Yan Gongzi had already seen this point, but the cultivators were unwilling to slaughter the soldiers. He gave orders, which went against the usual practice of the Heavenly Court. Even in the other eight major states, the Heavenly Court would not allow the cultivators to kill ordinary people indiscriminately.

  As for Ziyuan Gongzi himself, he did not dare to kill ordinary people. His identity was different, and if he killed ordinary people, heaven would immediately perceive it and send down a heavenly calamity, directly striking him dead and turning him into flying ashes.

  The Heavenly Court must strictly control the Heavenly Emperor's Inspectors, otherwise these inspectors may become independent of the Heavenly Court after operating for three to five hundred years. In the eyes of the Heavenly Court, these inspectors are just ants; who can guarantee that they won't harbor any thoughts once they arrive in the lower realm? Therefore, Yan Gongzi also didn't dare personally take action against the Feathered Forest Army stationed on the ground.

  Those cultivators heard Young Master Yan's order and immediately split into dozens of people, rushing towards the large camp.

  The elite of the Feathered Forest, what can they do against the Refiners? The weapons in the hands of these Refiners are all refined by Taoist methods. An ordinary long sword can easily cut through heavy armor, let alone iron armor.

  Bai Jian watched as the cultivators slaughtered the soldiers, only to coldly laugh. He couldn't stop them; although their speed wasn't as fast as his, they were still too spread out for him to catch up. All he could do was chase after each one individually, stabbing them with his spear and killing them off one by one.

  Luckily, the ones leading this time weren't the elite soldiers of the White family, or else the losses would have been severe! However, the anger in Bai Jian's heart couldn't be suppressed. This Refiner was so ruthless; how would he treat the White family in the future?

  At this point, Bai Jian's True Dragon Seven Kills Primordial Heavenly Vortex went crazy, and the soldiers in the Imperial Guard felt their bodies suddenly soften, their life force rapidly draining away. On Bai Jian's body, a dragon-shaped armor appeared, and his warhorse completely transformed into a giant python.

  White steed soared into the air and galloped straight towards the chariot in the sky.

  Dragon's Strike!

  This was Bai Jian's strongest move, originally intended for the Jin Emperor, but now used on the Heavenly Emperor's inspector.

  Yan Gongzi was still seething with anger and humiliation, for this ordinary person had already challenged his dignity twice.

  In his eyes, Bai Jian's war horse transforming into a dragon was nothing impressive. Any ordinary heavenly general had such skills. The Dragon Clan had eighteen levels, and this Jiaolong didn't even qualify as the lowest level of dragon, but was merely a hybrid mixed-blood.

  "Bai Jian, after I behead you, I will definitely slaughter the entire Bai family!" Yan Gongzi finished speaking and took out a jade ruler, smashing it down on his head.

  When the jade ruler was taken out, it was only eight inches in size. After leaving Yan Gongzi's hand, it immediately grew hundreds of times and transformed into a giant weapon. On the jade ruler, there were mountains, rivers, stars, and lakes.

  Jade ruler comes out, Bai Jian suddenly feels that his body has lost control, and the power to communicate with heaven and earth is stripped away.

  He transformed into a dragon's warhorse, was instantly knocked back to its original form, and immediately couldn't withstand the enormous pressure. With a loud bang, it exploded and died, with even its bones and fresh blood turning into a cloud of mist.

  Yan Gongzi burst out laughing, but saw that the jade ruler flashed and fell to the ground. Bai Jian's white figure had already rushed onto the war chariot.

  "Slaughter the entire White family? I'll kill you first!" On top of Bai Jian's long spear, seven green dragons danced in the air, surrounding the war chariot. The eight heavenly horses went wild and started galloping crazily, causing Yan Gongzi's face to change drastically.

  The power of this white solid exceeded his imagination. His own Sky-shaking Jade Ruler couldn't even knock him back to his true form!

  That's a high-quality Taoist vessel!

  No, the twelve golden men of Qin Huang are on his body!

  At this point, Yan Gongzi's heart was broken. In the heavenly court, people of his level didn't have less than 300-500 million. Being able to mix with the Heavenly Emperor's inspection envoy was an extremely superior and beautiful job. If he died here, he would regret it to what extent.

  At that time, Qin Huang had twelve golden men in his hands, and even the immortal of the combined Taoist period did not dare to confront him.

  Those cultivators who were besieging Bai Jian, seeing Bai Jian fly up and rush onto the Heavenly Emperor's chariot, were all stunned. Then they saw the giant jade ruler fall down and return to its original size of eight inches on the ground. These cultivators suddenly had red eyes.

  Those who can participate in this matter are not considered a major sect. The Kunlun, Qingcheng, Penglai, and Luofu sects do not deign to participate, each having their own blessed lands that are beyond the reach of Qin's imperial power.

  These cultivators saw the Heavenly Emperor's Envoy's artifact fall, and immediately had the idea of taking it. However, the Heavenly Emperor's Envoy's majesty was so great that for a time no one dared to offend him. These cultivators stopped in their tracks, not killing the soldiers, but instead gazing up at the war chariot in the sky. If Yan Gongzi were killed by Bai Jian, they would immediately seize the artifact and then escape, hiding themselves away.

  In the other eight major states, I'm afraid there aren't many Qi Refiners who are so narrow-minded. These Qi Refiners were poor to the point of death, and if they had a magic tool, they would treat it as a treasure. Low-grade Dao artifacts were almost never seen. This high-grade Dao artifact was placed in front of them, and not being tempted was strange.

  Bai Jian got on the war chariot, but didn't take action immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath and adjusted himself. Unexpectedly, Yan Gongzi jumped off the war chariot and shouted loudly: "Chu Jiang Wang, aren't you coming out yet?"

  Bai Jian didn't expect this guy to flee without a fight. The war chariot, pulled by the heavenly horse, galloped wildly and in the blink of an eye had run out dozens of miles away.

  He randomly poked the long spear, stabbing a few times at the buttocks of the heavenly horses. The heavenly horses' dragon energy entered their bodies, and they immediately became limp. Bai Jian didn't know how to control the war chariot, so he could only slowly try.

  Yan Gongzi jumped off the war chariot, gliding through the air, and landed on the ground with a scowl. Seeing dozens of onlookers, including several Qi-refining warriors, as well as his lost Shaking Heaven Ruler, Yan Gongzi's facial muscles twitched, emitting a low, ominous chuckle.

  Dozens of Qi-refining cultivators suddenly knew something was wrong and scattered in all directions.

  "King of Chujiang, today no one here will be spared." Yan Gongzi let out a long whistle towards the sky.

  "That's natural, the young master's orders will certainly be carried out." A youthful voice rang out, and from all directions, a dense white mist surged forth. In the midst of the white mist, an uncountable number of demon soldiers appeared. To the south, the demon soldiers were surrounding a magnificent large chariot, which arrived in front of the Qin King's Mausoleum.

  On top of that big vehicle, the one driving it was a serpent-headed monster with a human body.

  In the front of the car, with an open window, a handsome face appeared. The young man waved at Yan Gongzi and smiled: "Encountered some trouble on the road, arrived late."
