Chapter 543 World Invasion: Cannon Fodder in Infinite Terror VS The Ghost King Killed by the Origina
Su Jinyue frowned: "Now that we're here, we need to get to the bottom of this."
"I'm about to open the coffin now. Since you're feeling unwell, would you like to go back into the Soul-Nourishing Jade?"
Xiao Jing'an shook his head: "It's okay, there's nothing here that makes me uncomfortable now, you can drive."
Since Xiao Jing'an had said so, Su Jinyue opened the coffin directly.
Inside the coffin was a skeleton dressed in a dragon robe, its head now a skull.
Su Jinyue pursed her lips. She was wearing a dragon robe, so the person in the coffin was Xiao Jing'an?
"Xiao Jing'an, is this your bone?"
Xiao Jing'an looked at the skeleton in the coffin, nodding and then shaking his head: "It should be my remains, but this is not all of them."
Not all?!
Su Jinyue hurriedly reached out and peeled off the dragon robe, only to find that there were no skeletal remains inside; it was just stuffed up with other things.
Inside this coffin was only Xiao Jing'an's head!
Su Jinyue collected Xiao Jing'an's head, then overturned everything in the coffin, even crawling inside, before discovering the clues at the bottom of the coffin.
A formation had been set up at the bottom of the coffin. Su Jinyue carefully examined it and found that the formation was called the Seven Stars Gathering Spirit Formation, which was originally used to gather spiritual energy.
However, using this Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array here is a malicious act.
The location of this mausoleum was originally a place where yin energy and evil spirits would gather and enter Xiao Jing'an's coffin through the main burial chamber.
Although Xiao Jing'an was a deposed emperor, he still possessed dragon energy. The yin and evil energy entering Xiao Jing'an's coffin, along with Xiao Jing'an's dragon energy, would be absorbed by this Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array.
The purpose of the Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array is right under this coffin!
Su Jinyue channeled her power and struck the bottom of the coffin with a palm, destroying it and revealing the part beneath.
It turns out that beneath Xiao Jing'an's coffin, there was another coffin. The Yin energy, evil energy, and dragon energy absorbed by the Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array were all used to provide energy for the thing in the coffin below.
The person who used Xiao Jing'an's dragon energy to fuse yin energy and evil energy to set up this Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array was truly whimsical!
Don't let her know who it is. If she finds out, Su Jinyue will definitely not let this mastermind get away with it!
Su Jinyue gritted her teeth before continuing to look at the coffin below, but there was nothing left inside.
The mudslide unexpectedly breached the tomb, damaging the coffin in the main burial chamber, causing Xiao Jing'an to regain consciousness. After Xiao Jing'an's soul escaped, the Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array became ineffective.
It's possible that the Seven Star Gathering Spirit Array failed, causing the contents of the coffin below to escape.
There was very little written information in this tomb, almost none. Apart from the array in Xiao Jing'an's coffin, Su Jinyue couldn't find any information about the mastermind behind it all.
However, based on the construction time of this tomb and the traces of the array formation, it is highly likely that Xiao Jing'an was brought here and placed in the array formation after his death.
The person who set up the formation was from a thousand years ago. Is that person still alive? Can Su Jinyue still avenge Xiao Jing'an?
Moreover, this person was too cruel to Xiao Jing'an. After all, Xiao Jing'an was a human emperor. After his death, he was dismembered and used as nourishment to supply dragon energy!
As for the reason why Xiao Jing'an's spiritual power was insufficient, Su Jinyue also knew that it was because Xiao Jing'an had been dismembered.
Only by finding the other parts of Xiao Jing'an and retrieving his other divine souls can his power return to its peak.
Su Jinyue told Xiao Jing'an everything. His lack of memory might also be related to his incomplete mind.
Xiao Jing'an listened quietly, seemingly unconcerned about what would happen to him after his death.
He looked at Su Jinyue's indignant expression and even smiled.
"It's alright, this happened a thousand years ago. The person who set up the formation is probably long gone. There's no point in pursuing it any further."
Su Jinyue disagreed with Xiao Jing'an's point of view: "How can we give up? They did such a thing to you, I must find the culprit and avenge you!"
Xiao Jing'an looked intently at Su Jinyue and suddenly said, "I don't know why, but I always feel that the Xiao Jing'an here is not me. The Xiao Jing'an here is very pitiful, and I feel sorry for him."
However, I had a vague feeling that my experiences were different from his. I should have a happy family, a virtuous and kind empress, and a wise and capable crown prince. My life should be completely different from his.
Su Jinyue's heart skipped a beat. Had Xiao Jing'an remembered something?
But when she looked up and examined him closely, she didn't see any trace of the past in Xiao Jing'an's eyes.
She shared beautiful memories with Xiao Jing'an, but he can't remember them at all now, and she doesn't know how to tell him.
Perhaps, once Xiao Jing'an's soul is fully gathered in this world, he will be able to regain his memories!
But where are the other parts of Xiao Jing'an? And where is Su Jinyue going to look for them?
Su Jinyue sighed; this matter was a long and arduous one.
The original owner's master left her with the task of revitalizing Beiqing Temple, which was difficult enough to accomplish.
Now, Xiao Jing'an's situation has become even more complicated, and Su Jinyue feels lost about the future.
But Su Jinyue only allowed herself to be depressed for a short while. No matter how difficult it was, even if it took her whole life, she would definitely complete it!
The tomb was no longer of any research value. Su Jinyue walked around the tomb chamber but found nothing more, so she and Xiao Jing'an left.
On the way back, Su Jinyue kept trying to figure out the purpose and intention of the person who set up the formation, but there were too few clues to analyze it at all.
When Su Jinyue and Xiao Jingan arrived at the mausoleum, it was already afternoon, and when they left, it was already dusk.
In addition, darkness falls quickly in the mountains, and it was already night in Huai'an Mountain at this time.
Su Jinyue originally intended to return along the same route, but as it got dark and she was preoccupied with other things, she unknowingly changed direction.
By the time Su Jinyue realized it, she had already reached the exit of Huai'an Mountain, but it was in a different direction from where she had come in.
This was Su Jinyue's first time visiting Huai'an Mountain, and she was unfamiliar with the area. Now that it was dark, Su Jinyue originally planned to find a place to rest for the night and wait until dawn.
Anyway, her planting space is fully equipped, so she can live comfortably even in the wild.
But the moment Su Jinyue turned her head, she sensed the sounds of fighting coming from more than ten miles away.
Su Jinyue focused her attention and noticed that the area was filled with a heavy yin energy. Judging from the aftershocks of the fight, it was clear that neither of the two combatants were insignificant figures.
Su Jinyue was immediately intrigued. She hadn't expected that such a remote place would have such a powerful person. She definitely had to go and see for herself.
