Chapter 874 The Emperor Going Together
After traveling millions of miles, with the farewell of gods and the greetings of immortals, You Shiwu finally arrived at Anshan with a wisp of Li Yuan's soul.
Logically speaking, Li Yuan is the Emperor of Taoism, and even if he only has a trace of spiritual consciousness left, he still has great power. Now he looks confused, as if he has forgotten where his power is stored.
You Shiwu did not dare to make any guesses, but just did his duty and took this important man back home for a look.
The area of Anshan is considered the most stable place in the chaotic world. In the past, Xuanyin developed something to defeat evil spirits, which prevented the evil spirits from secretly invading. Later, when the Demon Emperor caused chaos, Wang Shuo returned to the mountain in time to resolve the disaster.
Various other disturbances were not worth mentioning as they were guarded by many practitioners in Anyue and many creatures in Anshan.
You Shiwu was a ghost immortal who didn't know anyone, but he felt that Li Yuan intended to stay, so he led Li Yuan step by step through the capital of Anyue.
Oddly enough, in this magnificent imperial city of Anyue, there was also a plain white silk cloth with thousands of feet of white silk, and the people were weeping continuously, as if the whole country was mourning the death of someone.
"Could it be that the news of Yuan Zun's death has been reported back to Anshan?"
You Shiwu was a little confused and continued to wander around the city with Li Yuan.
With the magic blocking their way, neither his nor Li Yuan's souls can be seen by ordinary mortals, so there is no need to worry about disrupting people's livelihood.
I walked carefully through several streets. Every household was wearing mourning clothes and burning paper money. A feeling of sorrow spread throughout the city.
You Shiwu listened attentively and heard some information from the people's cries. Only then did he know that the heroic emperor Fan Guo'an Yue had passed away.
He sighed silently. He had heard a long time ago that the mortal emperor was different from others. He had lived an eventful life and created a unified country that was extremely prosperous. But now his life had ended and his soul had returned to the underworld.
However, when Yuan Zun died and the great catastrophe ended, this mortal emperor also passed away. Does this represent some kind of destiny?
You Shiwu thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure out the mystery. He didn't dare to think about it too much and stopped thinking about it.
While he was pondering, he saw Li Yuan looking at the white city in confusion. His confused soul seemed to have a flash of enlightenment and became clear for a moment.
Li Yuan turned around and strode into the palace.
You Shiwu was slightly startled, and hurriedly followed. Along the way, he was guided by magic and automatically avoided the crowd, and the people were unaware of it.
The palace was also clad in plain clothes. The soldiers either had sackcloth on their foreheads or white stripes on their arms. Their faces were filled with sadness and sorrow as they knelt down towards the depths of the palace.
All the officials prostrated themselves and knelt in front of Emperor Anyue's mausoleum.
Li Yuan's soul ignored these soldiers and officials. With a leap, he drew out some mysterious power and instantly appeared in the mausoleum palace hung with white silk.
When You Shiwu arrived, the people who were kneeling in the mausoleum to accompany him had inexplicably stood up and left. Li Yuan was gently stroking the emperor's coffin with his brows lowered.
"Ji Yu, my old friend, you are gone after all..."
That faint low sigh instantly frightened You Shiwu so much that his scalp started to tingle.
The remaining soul of this Source Master actually spoke again, and seemed to be conscious and mentally complete!
You Shiwu quickly stepped back and bowed, his eerie, tattered black sleeves hanging down to the ground: "I pay my respects to the Mountain God of Anshan... No, I pay my respects to Master Yuanzun!"
He could not feel any response, so he mustered up the courage to look up, only to see that Li Yuan's soul raised his hand and tapped lightly in the air, as if he had composed an invisible scripture, or as if he had engraved a chant that was invisible to the naked eye, flowing with endless clear rhymes and filled with the light of Tao.
"I remember... I left you a way out... what is it... what is it...?"
Halfway through something, Li Yuan covered his head in pain, his expression struggling, as if he had forgotten many important things.
You Shiwu was terrified when he saw this, but he understood that Yuan Zun and Futu God Emperor died together, and their souls were shattered into dust. The fact that this faint remnant soul could be preserved in such a battle was the embodiment of infinite merit and fortune, and it was inevitable that a large amount of memory was lost!
Li Yuan's illusory soul became more and more painful. Looking at Ji Yu's gray and dead face in the coffin, a sense of sadness arose. He subconsciously wanted to take something out of his body, but realized that he seemed to be "dead" and there was nothing on his body.
"Paper...gold paper, merits can be deified...humanity can be deified with incense!"
"Why not? What do you mean it's not the right time yet? His mortal body has already perished!"
Li Yuan's soul fell into confusion, and he wandered back and forth in the mausoleum in a daze, looking up from time to time, with sharp and firm eyes, as if he was communicating with the sky.
There was silence in the Keling Palace, and the large number of officials kneeling outside heard nothing. Such a strange scene even gave You Shiwu, the guide to the underworld, goose bumps.
Who is Yuan Zun negotiating with? It's a bit spooky and scary... maybe it's a ghost.
As a guide to the underworld, he had heard from ancient rumors of the underworld that some special souls could directly communicate with heaven and could even predict the fate of others.
But he had only heard of such things and had never actually seen them.
Now that the great catastrophe has begun to dissipate, the will of heaven may also slowly return. It should be normal for a person of Yuan Zun's powerful level to be able to communicate directly with heaven... You Shiwu thought silently.
Rumble——!
Suddenly, thunder exploded above the sky, dark clouds filled the sky, and drizzle fell in an instant, as if it was a serious response from the heaven.
As a Hades immortal, You Shiwu was somewhat afraid of the thunderbolts. He was terrified and bent his waist even lower, bowed seriously, looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, as if to say 'I dare not look, I dare not listen'.
Li Yuan wandered back and forth in the mausoleum palace, listening to the thunder rumbling outside. It seemed as if he was arguing with someone, and finally made a compromise.
But he was still very unhappy, and he waved his sleeves violently. There was a loud bang in the dark void, as if he had touched the invisible rules. Suddenly, all the heavenly sounds above the sky disappeared.
The illusory soul took one last look at the emperor's coffin inlaid with gold and jade, and then disappeared into the mausoleum. You Shiwu was shocked and wanted to chase him but was afraid of offending him. However, thinking of the name book in his hand with his real name written on it, he gritted his teeth and followed him out.
Fortunately, Li Yuan did not run too far, but just went straight into the City God's Palace in Anyue Capital.
You Shiwu was complaining bitterly. The rank of the City God was much higher than his. If a mere underworld guide rushed into the City God's Mansion, he would be in trouble if he was reported afterwards...
But he didn't dare not follow, and turned into a wisp of black smoke and floated in.
Li Yuan ran directly to Gu Jian who was busy with official business, and before Lingguang was about to fall into confusion, he carved eight big words on his desk: "Ji Yu, gold paper, Fengshen, wait for me".
Before Gu Jian could react, the remnant soul fell into confusion again, turned around and left, instinctively walking towards Anshan.
The City God Gu Jian was shocked to find that Li Yuan actually appeared in the form of a remnant soul!
In the end what happened? !
When Gu Jian thought of this, his lips trembled and he didn't even have time to tidy up his clothes. His face was full of worry and he chased after him in horror.
Tian Yao, Wang Shuo and Chen Xuan were beaten to death by the Nameless Emperor and are still unconscious on the separated "new continent". Anshan has not received any news at all.
Only a touch of sadness from not long ago suddenly appeared in everyone's heart, making all living beings and spirits cry for it, but they didn't know what to feel.
The vast human world was torn into pieces by Li Yuan's sword. Such a shocking commotion would have brought endless casualties, or at least shocked the entire world, but it seemed to be gently smoothed out by someone. Apart from feeling the slight vibration at the beginning, all living beings and spirits have not noticed that the human world has changed drastically.
