This was a coffin filled with an evil aura. It gave off a feeling of being infinitely close to death.
"This is … this is the yellow coffin that the ancestor of Destruction dug out from the Heaven's Emergence Cemetery. Why is it in your hands?"
Bu Tian was a calm person, but he couldn't remain calm at this moment. The vague runes on the coffin frightened him.
Destruction and Violetsea were two of the oldest caves in the Northern Frontier Prefecture. Their ancestor also participated in that competition.
This coffin had a special suppressive effect against corpses. All the great caves wanted it, but in the end, it was taken by Destruction.
The Corpse King's green eyes were filled with fear. It continuously roared and stomped on the ground, causing it to crack inch by inch.
A purple mist condensed on top of Feng Feiyun's palm. He lifted the coffin and said: "Today, I'll see if this coffin can suppress a Corpse King."
"Whoosh!"
Feng Feiyun flew up from the tree like a bird. He grabbed the coffin with both hands and unleashed a palm strike. The coffin spun in the air to suppress the Corpse King.
The Corpse King roared even more ferociously and spat out a black corpse mist. The corpse mist turned into thousands of tentacles that grabbed the corpses that crawled out from the ground and piled them up into a terrifying corpse mountain.
The mountain of corpses was burning with bone-fire, and countless old corpses were screaming in pain, but they couldn't stop the yellow stone coffin. The mountain of corpses was shattered into pieces, and the yellow stone coffin directly bombarded the head of the corpse king. It was like a yellow sky, and the corpse king's knees were pressed into the ground.
"Rawrr!"
The Corpse King used both hands to support the coffin. It was extremely strenuous as if it was lifting a mountain. Its body kept on sinking as it let out heart-wrenching screams.
Feng Feiyun landed on top of the coffin with a white spear in his hand. His body was as straight as a spear as he stomped on the coffin. A monstrous force came down and shook the Corpse King's scales away. Green smoke intertwined on the corpse's hand.
In Feng Feiyun's eyes, the Corpse King's touch was like a cauldron trying to refine its body.
Under the starry sky, a man with a spear stood on top of a coffin while suppressing a Corpse King. The Corpse King let out earth-shattering screams as if its body was being refined.
It was a very frightening scene. Some of the merchants were scared witless. Although they had seen a lot of the world, they were still frightened by the yin energy emitted from the yellow stone coffin. They couldn't move, and there was also the evil man standing on top of the yellow stone coffin.
"This is a peerless coffin, it's hard to tell how old it is. However, I feel that if we open it, even an Enlightened Being would die inside."
Three old men in silver robes came to the inn. They didn't go to the cliff to watch the battle and chose to stay in one of the best rooms. However, they knew the situation inside out.
They were from Sacred Spirit Palace and have been staying at the inn for more than a month.
Another old man said: "This is a supreme genius. Look at his merit laws, he must be the demon's son from Jin. Just like the rumors, his talents are comparable to the five God Disciples from Sacred Spirit Palace."
"It'll be great if we can recruit him to Sacred Spirit Palace. With his talents, he'll have a high chance of reaching the Enlightened Being realm."
"I heard that Senluo Temple wants to recruit him too. Looks like the Beacon King knows a lot of things that we don't know after escaping from Bronze Cauldron. Maybe it has something to do with the demonic treasury in Bronze Cauldron."
"We need to investigate further, the chances are slim. Plus, the Beacon King was trapped in Bronze Cauldron for nearly two thousand years before escaping. He knows better than anyone how terrifying Bronze Cauldron is. He probably won't go near it again."
"You're right, our goal this time is to find out how strong the Beacon King is right now. If he's strong enough to threaten our supreme position, then we need to kill him as soon as possible."
Outside of the inn, the crowd was even more shocked.
More than half of the Beiming group was astounded. Beiming Gong's brows furrowed as he said: "This brat's treasures are amazing, each one of them is comparable to the defining treasure of a large clan."
Feng Feiyun's weapon essence and the yellow coffin were both supreme treasures. Anyone with enough vision could see their value. Even Giants would covet them.
It was a woman wrapped in a black robe. The coldness on her body was extremely strong, and from the gaps of the robe, a pair of beautiful eyes could be seen. Her eyes were black and white, and her eyelashes were extremely long, curved and slender. When she blinked her eyes, she gave off a strong sense of oppression.
This was definitely a woman of high status. Ordinary princesses wouldn't be able to emit such a noble aura.
Beiming Gong said: "Madam, let's find another chance."
"I can't wait that long."
The voice of a woman came from the black robe. However, it was extremely cold at this moment. The robe fluttered as she flew away with the wind.
Her slim and graceful figure leaped from the long iron chain bridge on the precipice and immediately turned into a beautiful shadow. She drew a beautiful arc and landed on the peak of the dark mountain. Everywhere she passed, the fierce beasts and birds of prey were all sent flying.
Her aura was so powerful that even the air trembled. This wasn't the cultivation of an ordinary Giant.
"Oh god!
Another supreme expert is making a move. Is she going to deal with that youth or the expert from the Violetsea Corpse Cave? "
Feiyun focused on suppressing the Corpse King while fighting against Bu Tian. He channeled all of his spirit energy and tensed up to the extreme. He sensed a terrifying aura behind him - one that belonged to a real Giant.
A Giant came to kill.
Bu Tian was a late-stage half-step Giant. However, he was a corpse controller and didn't specialize in his own techniques. He was more proficient in controlling corpses.
Thus, despite being a late-stage half-step Giant, Bu Tian could only exert the power of an intermediate half-step Giant. Feng Feiyun used his extraordinary speed and sharpness of the weapon essence to hold his ground.
The Corpse King was powerful but it was still a corpse that had just reached the Corpse King realm. Its body was still stiff and its mind was weak. It could only exert the power of a late-stage half-step Giant.
The yellow coffin could restrain it. Even if it was still a threat, it wasn't that big of a threat.
Feng Feiyun wanted to use this fight against Bu Tian and the Corpse King to reach fifth-level Heaven's Mandate. That's why he took the risk. Alas, he didn't expect for another Giant to show up.
This was the aura of a real Giant.
Being able to reach the Giant realm meant that one was a big shot in the cultivation world of the Jin Dynasty. Just think about it, a Divine Commander like Guo Dahai who was responsible for guarding the border was only at the Giant realm. Just from this, one could see how rare Giants were.
"Feng Feiyun, hand over your life!"
A woman's murderous voice resounded. She unleashed a powerful technique and summoned a hundred-meter-tall mountain towards Feng Feiyun.
The moment Feng Feiyun sensed her monstrous aura, he put away the coffin and ran away with his spear.
The black-robed woman's small mountain fell on top of the Undead King's head, pressing it into the ground.
"Raa!"
The small mountain swayed, leaving the ground. This was the Corpse King that was crushed underneath. It lifted it up, smashing towards the black-robed woman.
"How annoying."
The black-robed woman waved her sleeves and a cold light shot out, directly shattering the small mountain. The cold air wrapped around the Corpse King's body and completely froze it, turning it into an ice mountain.
Feng Feiyun stood in the distance with his weapon essence. He landed on the back of an elephant with wings and retreated far away. His eyes flashed like two phoenixes as he stared at the woman, wanting to see through her robe.
'Who is it?
Why do you want to kill me? '
The killing intent on her body was simply too strong. The killing intent turned into blades and swords, mincing the vegetation on the mountaintop into powder.
She immediately called out my name, so it was clear that she had seen me before. Furthermore, she wore a black robe that not only covered her entire body, concealing all of her aura, but it was also able to seal off the probing of others' divine senses. It was clear that her identity was extremely special and she didn't want anyone to know about her.
'Who is she?
What kind of grudge does she have against me? '
These thoughts flashed through Feng Feiyun's mind but he still couldn't figure out her identity. Based on her cultivation, Feng Feiyun had a few guesses. For example, Wu Qinghua from Yushou House was the most suspicious. However, Feng Feiyun quickly rejected this idea. Although this woman was strong, there was still a gap between her and Wu Qinghua. Moreover, Wu Qinghua might hate Feng Feiyun, but she wouldn't chase him for hundreds of thousands of miles and wait until they arrived at the inn.
"Boom!"
The ice mountain couldn't freeze the Corpse King and was shattered. It rushed out and wanted to attack the woman again. Bu Tian quickly stopped it: "Feng Feiyun is the real target. Tonight, I will kill him and become famous."
Since Feng Feiyun's name was already known by the woman, Bu Tian didn't need to hide it anymore.
He didn't call out Feng Feiyun's name before because Feng Feiyun had hundreds of thousands of spirit stones on him. This was comparable to the total wealth of an ancient sect. He didn't want others to compete with him, so he hid it.
But now, it didn't exist since Feng Feiyun's identity had been completely exposed.
The revelation of Feng Feiyun's identity set off a huge wave. Many people's blood boiled.
