The majestic Emperor power swept across, and the momentum was unstoppable. The endless platinum radiance was like a whirlwind that swept away the clouds, and the autumn wind that swept away the fallen leaves. The power of the wind element in the underground cave was all drawn into the Great Void Sword by Miao Li, as well as the billions of resentful spirits that were swallowed by the wind element.
Immediately, two figures soared into the sky!
At this time, in the wilderness outside, Changhe Lo stood in the void, and Goudan was under his control.
Ye Shuihan was still channeling vitality to Su Jin to maintain his vitality.
Little Nine, Emperor Chi Yan, and the injured Emperor Kua were waiting anxiously. They looked at the Prison Wind Stream, hoping that Qin Hao could safely escape from the Illusory Palace.
Yue Qianyang, Gu Kui, and Zhong Anze had all stopped.
In front of them, the dog spirit and the centaur brothers had turned into their demonic beasts and were staring at each other.
Previously, Qin Hao was ambushed and trapped in the Demonic Chaotic Divine Tune. Even if he released the dog spirit and the centaur, they still couldn't resist the power of the Imperial Technique and couldn't get rid of the Demonic Song. Not only could the dog spirit not be of any use, but it could also be devoured by the song.
Now that the Demonic Song was removed, the three demonic beasts had become a huge force that couldn't be ignored.
When Qin Hao was cultivating at Megrez Peak, they had been trained by Eastern Sky. Their realms and the Beast War Imperial Technique had improved significantly.
At present, the three demonic beasts were no weaker than Zhong Anze and Gu Kui. Demonic beasts had a certain innate advantage. If they really fought, Zhong Anze and Gu Kui might not be a match for the two centaurs.
The dog spirit was eroded by the Red Lotus Fire Qi and gradually became stronger. After receiving the inheritance of the old Beast Emperor, its fire ability could be said to be invincible except for Qin Hao. Yue Qianyang was no exception. The Saint of the Scorching Sun Temple probably never thought that he would be at a disadvantage when fighting with a dog.
But now, no one had the time to fight. Everyone was waiting. Eastern Sky and Chang Yu were the same. They were far away, and their minds were locked on the exit of the Prison Wind Stream. Every second felt like a year, and they were suffering.
"It seems that even if Qin Hao has the ability to transcend the heavens, he still can't escape from the power of the forbidden area."
After a long time, Qin Hao did not return. The Prison Wind Stream was so quiet that it was frightening. Changhe Lo took a deep breath and sneered.
They had racked their brains to get rid of Qin Hao. Now, that person was finally dead.
Unfortunately, he was not killed by Changhe Lo himself.
Ye Shuihan clenched his left hand tightly. His severed pinky felt a sharp pain in his heart. It had been a long time since he had experienced such pain. At this moment, he felt as though he had returned to the past. He had returned to the day when the Patriarch of the Yuwen family had brought him into the Dark Forest.
Fear consumed Ye Shuihan bit by bit. He couldn't imagine that Qin Hao would die.
But now, Boss had not returned for a long time. If he had not met with misfortune, how could he let Changhe Lo be so arrogant and not return?
All of this seemed to confirm that Qin Hao had died in the forbidden area.
"No way. Boss is so strong. How could he die? I don't believe it. I definitely don't believe it."
Xiao Jiu shook his head desperately. His eyes were filled with panic. Soon after, he let out a long howl as if he wanted to break the heavens.
Qin Hao was his life's goal. He was the person he respected all his life. In the entire Western Liang, there were countless stories and achievements of Qin Hao. Because of this, he had accepted Xing 'er's invitation to join the Grand Qi Alliance. At that time, he had agreed without hesitation.
But why did the hero he admired die?!
At this moment, Xiao Jiu felt that the belief that had supported him all this time had collapsed. What should he do in the future?
"There is no immortal in the world. It's just that the time of death is different. Qin Hao is not a god. How could he be invincible?
He should have died long ago. "
A disciple of the Xuanyuan family roared.
This person was the only one left of the four Xuanyuan family members who had encircled Qin Hao. Xuanyuan Di's Spirit had been exhausted and he had lost his life. The other two had died.
In order to kill Qin Hao, their Xuanyuan family had paid a terrible price. Many of the family's geniuses had died in the hands of the white-haired devil.
Now, the debt of blood had been repaid with blood. The family's nightmare had been completely ended.
This moment was too worth cheering for. This remaining disciple of the Xuanyuan family let out a long howl that was even more emotional than Xiao Jiu. He wanted to vent all the resentment in his heart. He even wanted to set up a banquet on the spot.
But all of a sudden, a crimson fiery light shot out from the distance with surging killing intent. In an instant, this howling Xuanyuan Family disciple was pierced through the heart by a sharp emerald sword shadow.
Incomparably fierce demonic flames poured into his body, burning his spirit and will. This powerful flame directly burned him.
"How is this possible?"
The last remaining member of the Xuanyuan family stared at the face that was inches away from him in disbelief. This white-haired devil, who should've been dead, had actually come out of the danger zone Changhe Lo had chosen. Not only was he not dead, but he had also killed him with a single strike.
With boundless hatred, the last remaining youth of the Xuanyuan family slowly fell from the sky like a burnt cloth bag.
He couldn't accept this!
In order to kill Qin Hao, they had gathered eight emperor realm cultivators and secretly used Su Jin and Lan Qingwu's lives as the price to set up the Heavenly Demon Massacre.
But in the end, they still failed to achieve their goal.
Qin Hao didn't look at the burning corpse. Qi surged from his palm, and the palace flag in his hand was crushed to dust by the raging qi. Myōri had told him that it was a fake.
At this moment, Myōri floated by Qin Hao's side. Platinum flames flickered, and her face was incomparably sacred and dignified, fully displaying the might of a great emperor.
Even if the aura she emitted was incomparably powerful and shook the void to the point of rumbling, it was like air to everyone present. Besides Qin Hao, no one was able to sense Myōri's existence.
With his senior sister by his side, Qin Hao subconsciously glanced at Myōri. They'd had physical contact, and Qin Hao was completely able to determine that this third disciple of Megrez Peak wasn't a soul at all, but a living person.
Earlier, Senior Brother Eastern Sky had once said that Myōri had failed to transcend the emperor tribulation and had died long ago.
But in reality, the matter was far from so simple. There was an unimaginable secret behind Myōri's death.
At this moment, Qin Hao's heart was in turmoil, but he didn't have the time to understand the truth behind his senior sister's death. The only thing he could prove was that Eastern Sky had lied.
Perhaps the entire divine palace was a lie!
"Let him go."
Qin Hao shouted at Changhe Lo. Naturally, he wanted the other to release Goudan.
"Brother Qin, I'm sorry."
Emperor Kua, who had lost an arm, was too ashamed to raise his head. He felt ashamed even when he opened his mouth.
He had promised Qin Hao that he would protect Goudan thoroughly. However, Changhe Lo had taken Goudan away in front of him. It was truly humiliating.
The Red Flame Emperor and the Works Emperor all looked ashamed. After all, they had a part to play in scheming against Qin Hao today.
But how could they have known that Qin Hao would almost kill Changhe Lo and the others?
"Let him go."
Qin Hao didn't pay attention to the crowd and exploded again. Like rolling thunder, it struck the void back and forth, full of deterrence.
It was true that Goudan was a living creature born from a matrix, and his life was worthless.
But as long as he lived, Qin Hao was obligated to take care of him, even if it was to repay the favor of saving his life.
After these two roars, the vast space fell silent.
Yue Qianyang was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat. His heart was trembling. He didn't expect that Qin Hao could come out of the forbidden land of the illusory palace. The power of the forbidden land couldn't kill Qin Hao.
And after coming out, he killed another one of them with a sword.
Zhong Anze and Gu Kui were injured again and again, and Yue Qianyang couldn't get away because of the dog spirit. How could Changhe Lo be a match for Qin Hao by himself?
There was no need to think about it.
Not to mention killing Qin Hao, whether Yue Qianyang could leave this place alive was already a huge problem.
"Changhe Lo."
Yue Qianyang's heartstrings were tight. He couldn't bear the oppressive atmosphere and couldn't help but shout.
"Haha."
Changhe Lo smiled calmly and looked at Qin Hao. He nodded and said helplessly, "I knew it. Even if the seven Peak Venerables worked together to activate the Illusory Palace Matrix, there was a loophole left in the matrix. This loophole couldn't kill you. Sure enough, I didn't misjudge you."
"Nonsense. Do you want to die?"
Qin Hao said in a low voice and took a step forward.
Weng! A layer of flaming energy swept out, causing the entire space to seem as if it was boiling, the temperature rising sharply.
The terrifying flame power of the Great Path made the Red Flame Emperor tremble.
"Kill me?"
Changhe Lo shook his head. "You can't do it. As for killing you, I still have a chance."
A cold smile appeared on Chang Heluo's face as he raised his palm. A vigorous palm energy was like Mount Tai collapsing. With a rumbling sound, blood splashed everywhere, splashing onto Chang Heluo's face. Chang Heluo's white robe was instantly dyed red.
"Goudan."
Qin Hao roared. The rules of meteorite merged into his sword. A sword shadow flew out and split in the middle, forming a dense sword net. He wanted to kill Changhe Lo on the spot.
Changheluo coldly sneered. He picked up Eggface's weak corpse and tossed it into the sword net. At this moment, Eggface's arms loosened and the bundle that he had been holding onto fell to the ground. As it fell apart, a white jade stone fell out, emitting a dazzling radiance.
"What is that?"
Changhe Lo lowered his head. The jade stone gave him a familiar feeling. It seemed to be an object of the Divine Palace.
He grabbed at the void and the falling jade was sucked back into Chang Heluo's palm. He glanced at it and saw that there were strange rocks on top of the jade. They were like tiny peaks that reached up to the sky. The familiar aura came from these tiny peaks and converged into his consciousness.
"Seven Peaks, the Seven Peaks of the Divine Palace, the palace flag, the palace stone, hahaha …" Changhe Lo completely understood. The so-called palace flag was not necessarily a real flag. It could exist in other forms, such as … the stone in his hand.
It was the palace stone, representing the absolute authority of the Seven Peaks of the Divine Palace. It was similar to the palace flag mentioned by Megrez. With the palace stone, one could also make a wish to the seven peak masters and fulfill all their requests.
It was really unexpected that the palace flag that all the disciples of the peaks wanted to get in the trial came from a child of the Illusory Palace.
Fate played tricks on Qin Hao. It had always been by Qin Hao's side, but Qin Hao did not know.
Changhe Luo Yangtian let out a long laugh. He laughed so hard that tears almost flowed out of his eyes. Golden light wreaked havoc in his palm. With a bang, he crushed the supreme treasure that Goudan's ancestors had guarded for generations into nothingness.
Although he also wanted to take it back and make a wish to the seven peak masters to obtain the supreme cultivation methods of the other six peaks.
But Changhe Lo knew that if he took the palace stone with him, he might not be able to get out alive. It would inevitably attract the other disciples of the Divine Palace to come and kill him. Instead of that, it was better to destroy it. If he could not take it back, others could not touch it.
In comparison, Qin Hao needed the Palace Stone more, so he destroyed it. At the very least, today's ambush could not be considered a failure. Destroying the Palace Stone could be considered a heavy blow to Qin Hao.
Qin Hao saw that Goudan was trapped in the net of thousands of swords. Although he knew that Goudan was probably dead and that it was just a corpse, he still could not bear to destroy it. His will shrouded the void, and the sword will dissipated. He stretched out his arm and took Goudan into his arms.
At that moment, Changhe Lo crushed the palace stone, tore the space, and left.
But for Qin Hao, Goudan was more important.
"Big … big brother, have I caused you trouble again? Uncle Kua did not let me come, but I came. I was worried about you, but I could not help. I am so useless."
With his face covered in blood, Goudan opened his eyes weakly.
Qin Hao shook his head and shouted desperately in his heart, "Sister, save him."
Myōri flew over and put one hand on Qin Hao's shoulder. The vast Dili used Qin Hao as a carrier and poured into Goudan's body through his arm to protect his fragile spiritual sense.
"That palm was just a simple external force. It did not shatter the child's soul. He must have wanted to delay you to save him and take the opportunity to escape."
Myōri also saw through Changhe Lo's intentions.
"It is not important."
Qin Hao transmitted his voice.
"Big brother, I am dying. Don't waste your strength. You are a good person. I should have given you my father's legacy.
But I lost it. "
Goudan felt weaker and weaker. He was as light as a feather. His soul seemed to want to fly away.
"Don't talk. You will not die."
Qin Hao comforted him. Then he landed slowly and handed Goudan to Little Nine. With Myōri and the vast Dili protecting him, Goudan's soul would not be dispelled by the Heavenly Path for a while.
At that moment, he also walked towards Ye Shuihan, because Su Jin also needed treatment.
On the other side, just as Changhe Lo was escaping, Yue Qianyang also wanted to run. Their faces changed drastically. The power of Renhuang cut through the space and tried to get into the space gap.
"Where do you think you are going?"
When Emperor Chi Yan saw this, he clenched his fist in the air and let out a thunderous roar. In a flash, his Renhuang power stirred up the space and forcibly broke the space crack. He flew up and fought with Yue Qianyang.
As the lord of a realm and an eighth level emperor realm cultivator of the great dao of fire, Emperor Crimsonflame's strength was no weaker than Yue Qianyang's. In fact, his foundation as a realm lord was even stronger.
Yue Qianyang was the unlucky one. He had been injured by Qin Hao, then fought with the dog spirit for a long time. He was mentally and physically exhausted. As soon as Changhe Lo fled, he panicked even more and lost to Emperor Crimsonflame in a few moves. This time, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
Zhong Anze and Gu Kui were even more miserable. They were completely ravaged by Ah Hei Huang. Almost at the same time, they followed in Yue Qianyang's footsteps and became prisoners.
"Boss."
Ye Shuihan was finally relieved when he saw Qin Hao arrive.
Qin Hao nodded and looked at Su Jin lying on the ground. He secretly transmitted to Myōri, "Senior sister, can you save him?"
Myōri shook her head. "His fate soul is shattered. His soul suffered a backlash from the music and was severely injured. There's no way to save him."
Su Jin and Lan Qingwu had played the Demonic Chaos Melody, and Changhe Lo had changed the tune. Although Lan Qingwu had committed suicide midway to stop the music, Su Jin had suffered a certain degree of backlash. It was a miracle that he hadn't died on the spot.
Su Jin's soul was so damaged that it was impossible for him to recover. Ye Shuihan's continuous supply of qi kept him alive.
"Senior brother … Qin Hao … cough cough …" Su Jin slowly opened his eyes when he heard Qin Hao's voice. He forced a bleak smile onto his face. "Senior brother Qin Hao, senior brother Qin Hao, you … don't need to save me. I know my own condition. My remaining soul cannot bear the weight of the heavenly dao. Don't waste your energy."
"Su Jin."
Ye Shuihan's heart ached. Once upon a time, the person in front of him was also a peerless genius.
"Thank you, senior brother Qin Hao, for taking care of me these past two years. Qingwu and I will never have the chance to repay you. Let me die. Otherwise, Qingwu will be very lonely. I only ask senior brother to bring a handful of yellow earth back to the Divine Palace and bury my clothes and yellow earth at Yaoguang Peak. I will have no regrets in this life. As for my body …" Su Jin also saw Goudan in Little Nine's arms. He forced a smile. "This child should be a very important person to senior brother. I remember Gong Zun said that the creatures of the Illusory Palace also have life. Once they possess a disciple of the Divine Palace, they can walk out of the Divine Palace and live in place of the disciple of the Divine Palace."
"This child's physical body was destroyed by Changhe Lo. If we can't find a new body soon, he will also die. Let him merge with my body. I will use my remaining soul to pass on everything I have learned to him. I, Su Jin, will repay senior brother's kindness on behalf of Qingwu. Cough cough …" Su Jin quickly tried to finish his words. His consciousness was already very weak.
"Junior brother Su, have a safe journey."
Qin Hao held back the tears in his eyes. At this moment, Myōri made her move. The surging power of the Great Emperor extracted Goudan's soul and injected it into Su Jin's body.
Su Jin smiled and gave up all resistance. His broken soul shrank smaller and smaller until it finally turned into a halo of sacred inheritance and merged into Goudan's soul. He imprinted all the martial arts he had learned in his life into the depths of Goudan's soul. From the moment he stepped onto the martial arts path when he was young to everything he had learned in the Divine Palace, he imparted to Goudan without reservation.
From now on, there would be no more Su Jin in the world. Or rather, there would be a person who looked exactly like him, living in place of Su Jin and fulfilling his unfinished dream.
This was not considered possession, but a greater sacrifice than possession.
Sacrificing everything to help others!
Qin Hao raised his head and tried not to let his tears fall. In fact, from the moment Qingwu committed suicide and stopped the Heavenly Demon Song, this poor couple no longer owed him anything.
