Cultivation: Starting from a Mortal Bone

Chapter 547: Chapter 500: Empress (Part 2)

Absolutely impossible!

”No way!”

The Empress bit her teeth tightly, refusing without hesitation.

In this lifetime, he can forget about it, I will never agree!

The disappointment on Qin Yu’s face was evident.

However, perhaps it’s because she has been a ruler for too long, even with an Innate Sacred Body, she still needs a proper moment of rest.

At this moment, the Empress could be considered full of knowledge.

Every time she recalled the outrageous things Qin Yu did, she found it hard to believe.

This guy was utterly insane. After her refusal, he even set his sights on Fat Dragon and Encountered Obstruction.

If it weren’t for cultivation, she really would have wanted to kick him out!

No way.

This guy became more reckless; the cultivation must end quickly.

Otherwise, the imperial majesty will be trampled underfoot by him, and if he shows any abnormalities in front of Little Ling’Er and the Empress Dowager, won’t it be exposed?

...

Cangsha Hall.

A figure draped in green sat cross-legged in front of a broken stone pillar, hands forming seals, with vast Spiritual Power surging out, continuously pouring into the array before her.

Even though Guest Minister Liu had used the last of his life to impart teachings, she still could not comprehend the mysteries of the Star Prison Array.

She could only cautiously maintain the array, relying on her master’s insights.

”Whoosh!”

Suddenly, a slight sound of wind breaking through arose in the heavens and the earth, with a terrifying pressure permeating the air.

It was as if a Divine Mansion was overlooking this piece of heaven and earth, searching for all villains.

Moments later, a muffled groan came from afar, and immediately, a black-robed figure, like a streak of black light, flew rapidly into the distance.

”Boom!”

However, that figure had not yet escaped a hundred yards when it burst into a cloud of blood mist mid-air.

”Despicable rat!”

An indignant and authoritative voice rose slowly.

”Your Majesty!”

The Hall Master’s eyes suddenly opened, a hint of wild joy rising within.

In the next moment, three figures suddenly appeared within the array.

Leading them was none other than Emperor Chu, wearing a Dragon Robe!

The two behind him exuded strong waves of Spiritual Power. Once they stood firm, they immediately sat by Chu Muyin’s sides, vast Spiritual Power sweeping out.

”Father.”

Chu Muyin felt the pressure lessen greatly and finally opened her eyes. Looking into those concerned tiger eyes, a sour feeling rose to her nose, a feeling of grievance rushing to her heart.

”Master he...”

”You rest for a moment first, leave it to the two Guest Ministers here for now.”

Emperor Chu took a deep breath, walking to the side of the white-robed figure.

Guest Minister Liu was now devoid of life; even with his sky-reaching power, he couldn’t bring the dead back to life.

”Your Majesty, this is my failing. I beg Your Majesty to punish me severely.”

The Hall Master knelt on the ground, not daring to lift his head, his tone full of self-blame.

Emperor Chu raised his arm, gently closing Guest Minister Liu’s eyes, a strong feeling of anger swelling within but having nowhere to release.

”The hidden rats continue to lurk, coming deliberately prepared this time; it was my oversight.”

Emperor Chu murmured, taking a deep breath.

He had paid sufficient attention and sent ten Chu Guards to protect Guest Minister Liu.

Chu Guards, while not as strong as the Flame Guard of the Great Yan Immortal Country, each was a mighty cultivator among thousands, and with ten Chu Guards, along with Guest Minister Liu and Hall Master Xiang, it still resulted in an incident.

This was indeed beyond what Emperor Chu had expected.

However, as an Emperor, he couldn’t personally attend to any slight fluctuation in the ancient array of any region.

”Your Majesty, the array here is broken; we can only hold on for at most ten days...”

While Emperor Chu was mourning inwardly, a Royal Guest Minister on the left suddenly spoke.

After the exploration just now, he was horrified to discover the Star Prison Array here was already near a state of extreme disrepair. With the strength of the two of them, even with the addition of Princess, there wasn’t the slightest hope of repairing the array.

From what they understood about the Star Prison Array, they could barely maintain it with sheer force of powerful Spiritual Power.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chu’s already gloomy face turned a shade of black.

He took a stride, placing his hand on a stone pillar, and after a slight sense, immediately detected the anomaly.

”Damn rats!”

Emperor Chu’s hands trembled slightly. How long had those guys been preparing in the shadows?

The Star Prison Array that was connected to the earth beneath his feet had been damaged to this extent, which was not something that could be achieved overnight!

The Hall Master stood there, his face pale, speechless from guilt.

As the master of a hall, he had been diligent, paying enough attention to the ancient array, daring not to let any mistake occur.

Yet, he too had not detected anomalies, leading to such a predicament.

”Just do your best to maintain it; I will make arrangements,” Emperor Chu whispered, trying to appear composed.

He was the Emperor of Great Chu; even if uneasy inside, he could not show it before them.

”Yes!”

As expected, seeing the Emperor in such a manner, the two Royal Guest Ministers said no more and continued to maintain the ancient array.

However, the current Star Prison Array could barely seal the exit, possessing almost no power of purifying malice.

Through the array, one could clearly see the vast malice churning within.

If one with an unstable mind were to take even a glance, they might be affected, becoming a puppet knowing only slaughter.

It’s unimaginable what catastrophe would befall the Great Chu Immortal Country should the array be broken and such a vast amount of malice run rampant.

Standing in front of the array, a gleam of light flickered in Emperor Chu’s tiger eyes.

Even with his sky-reaching power, he couldn’t purify the malice, at most temporarily suppressing it with his mighty cultivation.

But as an Emperor, he couldn’t sit here indefinitely.

Otherwise, who knows what disasters those hidden rats would cause in other regions?

Yet, if he were to leave, the two Royal Guest Ministers alone could not sustain it for long.

Would he really have to put aside his pride and ask other Emperors for help?

But, the Nine Immortal Countries were almost all facing the same predicament; those hidden rats were rampant not only within Great Chu’s borders.

As for repairing the ancient array...

Except for Emperor Qin, perhaps having this ability, the other Emperors probably had no way.

But Emperor Qin, being the First Emperor, had entered seclusion over a decade ago, supposedly preparing for the Celestial Tribulation, with matters within Great Qin entirely handled by his Eldest Prince.

Asking Emperor Qin to take action was almost an impossible task.

Then who else could alleviate the urgent crisis for the Great Chu Immortal Country?

Wait!

Emperor Chu’s pupils constricted, suddenly thinking of an existence!

Prosperity!

The Empress Dowager of the Great Yan Immortal Country!

It is rumored that the Empress Dowager of Great Yan possesses an artifact known as the Bright Moon Pearl.

The Bright Moon Pearl contains Moonlight Power, which, while it cannot purify the Malice Spirit, possesses unique suppressive power!

If it can be sought, perhaps it could temporarily suppress the hidden dangers here.

But...

Having just encountered some unpleasantness with Great Yan, going to seek help now, even Emperor Chu found it hard to put aside his pride.
