Chapter 936 - 933: One Sword Suppresses

Chapter 936: Chapter 933: One Sword Suppresses

Boom!

Upon entering the Lantern Sea, Ye Xuan tried to conceal his aura but soon gave up on the idea.

He was now in the Emperor’s corpse of the Ming Jing Great Emperor, not in his own Taoist Body, nor in that monstrous body from years ago, which could cover his aura easily at any time and place.

Especially within this Emperor Corpse, there was an immense power of a Great Emperor, surging like rivers and seas.

Such power cannot be easily concealed.

"Sword, come!"

Ye Xuan murmured slowly, yet it sounded like thunder.

Whoosh!

In an instant, from the Broken Bone Cliff, the snow from the Sword Nurturing Gourd at Ye Xuan’s waist suddenly emitted a radiant sword light.

That was... the River Soldier!

With the River Soldier in hand, Ye Xuan’s aura surged even further.

In the dark mist, the Lantern Ancient Beast King gazed from afar at the scene, suddenly feeling an ominous premonition.

Its instinct told it that this guy had spotted it!

Without any hesitation, the Lantern Ancient Beast King immediately chose to dive deeper into the lower part of the Lantern Sea.

Lanterns floated on the ’surface’ of the sea.

The Lantern Ancient Beast King delved into the ’seabed’.

"It has indeed learned quite a bit from before." Ye Xuan watched the scene with a slight smile.

Years ago, when Ye Xuan suppressed the Lantern Ancient Beast King, it was because this creature was incredibly arrogant, aware of its own weaknesses, yet it did not dodge at all, and Ye Xuan suppressed it effortlessly.

After that incident, the Lantern Ancient Beast King evidently became a lot smarter.

"Unfortunately, in this lifetime, you can’t escape from my grasp." Ye Xuan murmured to himself, holding the River Soldier backward.

"Swift!"

Ye Xuan snapped lightly.

The next moment, Ye Xuan disappeared entirely.

The Lantern Ancient Beast King delved deeper, concealed in the darkness, continuing to devour lanterns to restore its strength.

At that moment, the Lantern Ancient Beast King suddenly felt a chilling sensation.

Before it could react, a sword light pierced directly through the lantern above its head.

"Roar————"

The Lantern Ancient Beast King let out a powerless roar, its entire strength weakening at this moment continuously.

Unbeknownst when, Ye Xuan appeared behind the Lantern Ancient Beast King, a sword directly stabbed through the Lantern Ancient Beast King’s lantern, grasping the Lantern Ancient Beast King’s life source.

Although this Lantern Ancient Beast King was formidable, normally its lantern was not its weakness, instead, it was its deadly weapon, but this was just the norm.

When absorbing lanterns, the Lantern Ancient Beast King’s lantern would become its greatest weakness.

If its lantern is destroyed, then the Lantern Ancient Beast King’s power would drastically weaken, and it could then be sealed.

As for killing it...

Don’t expect that.

As the Sovereign of the Lantern Sea, the Lantern Ancient Beast King would never be killed, unless the Lantern Sea was obliterated from this world.

Ye Xuan wielded the River Soldier to conceal his aura, and then use it to destroy the Lantern Ancient Beast King’s lantern.

Everything was already in control.

"The Wandao Tower is still there, not a major issue..."

Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul sensed for a moment, discovering that beneath the Lantern Sea, the Wandao Tower used years ago to seal the Lantern Ancient Beast King was still present, which relieved him.

If the Wandao Tower was destroyed, then even if he subdued the Lantern Ancient Beast King, he wouldn’t be able to seal it.

The Wandao Tower is still there, hence, the impact is not significant.

Time passed slowly.

After half a stick of incense, the immense body of the Lantern Ancient Beast King shrank directly to less than a hundred feet.

Ye Xuan inserted the River Soldier into the Lantern Ancient Beast King’s lantern, grasped it firmly, dragging the Lantern Ancient Beast King downward towards the Wandao Tower.

In the darkness below, there was a nine-tier Black Tower integrated, with a chilling aura atop.

This Wandao Tower was meticulously crafted by Ye Xuan, originally of great use, but later left in this Primordial Land to suppress the Lantern Ancient Beast King.

Every time Ye Xuan came to this Primordial Land, he would strengthen the seal of the Wandao Tower to prevent the Lantern Ancient Beast King from breaking free.

Unexpectedly, this time, this creature still broke free.

Fortunately, with the Emperor Corpse of the Ming Jing Great Emperor present, otherwise with Ye Xuan’s own strength, he wouldn’t have been able to suppress it, and would have to wait until next time.

"No!"

Seeing the Wandao Tower, the Lantern Ancient Beast King unexpectedly uttered a word in the Human Clan’s language, saying ’no’, continuously struggling.

For the Lantern Ancient Beast King, the Wandao Tower was its disaster, it originally thought it had completely broken free from the Wandao Tower.

Unexpectedly, in less than two months, it was going to be suppressed again!

Ye Xuan looked at the Lantern Ancient Beast King with surprise and then smiled: "This creature of yours surprisingly had moments of fear, where did that arrogance of yours go from our first meeting?"

"No!" The Lantern Ancient Beast King seemed only capable of saying this word.

Ye Xuan shook his head, no longer wasting words with the Lantern Ancient Beast King, directly taking it to the Wandao Tower, pinching a Dharma Seal, black runes flew out of the Wandao Tower, transforming into talisman chains, binding the Lantern Ancient Beast King, and pulling it straight into the Wandao Tower.

Once entwined by talisman chains, no matter how the Lantern Ancient Beast King struggled, it had no effect, only to be suppressed.

Ye Xuan hovered before the Wandao Tower, uttering a series of ancient spells, strengthening the seal on the Wandao Tower.

After reinforcing the Ninth Layer Seal, Ye Xuan stopped.

"You better stay inside honestly." Ye Xuan laughed lightly at the irritated Lantern Ancient Beast King within.

Honestly speaking, Ye Xuan felt very peculiar about the Lantern Ancient Beast King.

Logically, the limits of the Lantern Ancient Beast King should be terrifying, yet its spiritual wisdom was not high, nor could it transform.

Whether it was due to the taboos of the Lantern Sea or the history of the entire Dao Chu Ancient Land.

All in all, very eerie.

This point was completely different from the Empty Ancient City behind the Lantern Sea.

Within the Empty Ancient City, many beings existed.

Even forming a city comparable to the outside world.

Ye Xuan did not delve deeply, for he had pondered this many years prior.

All truths concerned that chessboard.

He was not yet qualified to play that chess game, nor did he step off the chessboard, one could say.

Ye Xuan floated away from the Lantern Sea, landing before the Broken Bone Cliff.

Buzz————

Ye Xuan’s Emperor Soul stirred slightly, flying out of the Emperor Corpse, returning to his own body, slowly opening his eyes.

"Master." Ming Jing Great Emperor bowed.

Ye Xuan nodded slightly, again taking out a piece of white paper, beginning to craft a paper horse.

Moments later, the vivid paper horse flew from Ye Xuan’s hand, landing into the Lantern Sea.

Within the Lantern Sea, a Lantern Ancient Beast swam out from the dark mist, swallowed the paper horse whole, then bowed its head to Ye Xuan, starting to roam the Lantern Sea.

It followed Ye Xuan’s order, searching for the woman named Alian.
