As the demonic energy burst out, Emperor Ming's eyes were like those of a demonic beast, and the power of the beast surged out.
A black mist enveloped him.
"Kill me," he looked at the Emperor's Sword in his hand and said again.
"Don't bother, you can't kill him," at this moment, a human face shrouded in the black mist behind Emperor Ming said calmly.
"Who are you?" Jiang Yun asked.
"Three Thousand Taoist Courts, Hongmeng Demon Palace, Jinpeng Divine Sect and Unified Divine Sect, you guys are all here," Human Face said with a smile.
"Why, those old guys didn't come?
Send some juniors to die."
"Who are you?" Yuhuang asked.
"Aren't you just here to wait for me?" Human Face said with a chuckle.
The black mist sprouted two arms, grabbed Emperor Ming directly and left in the distance.
"Kill me," Emperor Ming's voice continued to sound.
"Don't let him take Emperor Ming away," Jiang Yun shouted softly.
Spiritual energy surged around his body, and he took the lead in catching up.
Everyone followed him, hoping to catch up with Emperor Ming.
However, countless lichs flew in midway.
These lichs surrounded the surroundings and did not attack, but only disrupted everyone's actions.
"You will be imprisoned here," the voice of the human face came from far away.
"When our Lich clan comes back to light, you can regain your freedom."
The next moment, the lich disappeared, and in all directions, black beams of light shot into the sky.
It colored the sky, and then fell from the sky like a cage, trapping everyone inside.
Xu Zimo felt that these black mist had a corrosive effect.
Not only the body is corroded, but the soul and life can also be dissolved instantly.
It can be said that if you touch it, you will die.
…………
"Everyone, what should we do now?" Xu Zimo asked.
He knew that these people must have a way.
"It seems that Emperor Ming did fall here," Jiang Yun said with a frown.
Although Emperor Ming showed up just now, everyone could feel that he was nothing but an empty shell.
His true destiny and source of truth have been polluted.
"Gongyang Ce is right, the lich is just one step away," Gui Che said in a muffled voice.
"We came just in time."
Looking at Xu Zimo's confused eyes, Bai Tihe explained: "Do you know why we are gathered here?"
"Looking for the treasures left behind by each sect," Xu Zimo replied.
"You explained it to me, but I don't believe it."
"Yes, pursuing treasures is only one of them," Bai Tihe said.
"I didn't tell you before because I couldn't fully trust you."
Speaking of this, Bai Tihe replied: "The Lich clan has a new plan and wants to restart the Lich Scourge.
We received the news a long time ago.
So I asked Gong Yangce, the first mystery, to give us a fortune telling, but I didn't expect that this matter was related to Emperor Ming."
"Then what?" Xu Zimo asked.
"The situation is more complicated than you think. I think the picture you see next may be more convincing than my explanation," Bai Tihe said.
I saw him take something out of the ring.
That's a cage with bugs.
It's just that the bugs inside are not ordinary, each one emits fluorescence, and the faint light is like an endless flame.
No matter how it sways, it remains eternal.
"The cages around us are made of lich aura," Bai Tihe explained.
"These are demon-eating insects that can help us escape from here."
"It turns out you were already prepared," Xu Zimo said.
"If there are no accidents at this moment, the ancestors should have been guarding the periphery of the small world."
Yuhuang replied: "No lich will be able to escape by then."
When he said this, his murderous intent was strong and extremely serious.
The ancestors he mentioned naturally refer to the strongest men and founders of each Taoist court.
"Everything was originally planned," Gui Che muttered and glanced at Bai Tihe.
He replied: "But some people have different intentions and want to separate themselves from us and pursue their own merits."
What he means is self-evident.
Bai Tihe wanted to cooperate with Xu Zimo. In this case, all the credit would be his, and Xu Zimo wouldn't need any credit.
"I'm leaving a way out in case something goes wrong," Bai Tihe said with a smile.
Yuhuang did not speak, but released the demon-eating insect in his hand.
The insects were flying for a while, and then suddenly rushed towards the majestic lich aura around them.
"This kind of insect is a strange species, specifically sought for the lich," Yuhuang said with satisfaction as he watched the demon-eating insect swallowing the lich's energy.
Not long after, a small door opened out of the Lich's Cage.
"Let's go," everyone looked at each other and got out of the door.
But Xu Zimo did not leave, but still stayed inside.
"What's wrong, Brother Tao?" Bai Tihe asked.
"You go ahead, I'll wait for you here," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"Brother Dao, don't you want to know the truth?" Yuhuang asked.
"The more you know, the less interesting it becomes, and there is no benefit," Xu Zimo waved his hand.
"I won't get involved in your affairs."
Everyone looked at Xu Zimo carefully, with some doubts in their eyes.
"In that case, we won't force it," Yuhuang smiled, and everyone walked out of the cage.
The demon-eating insects were put away, and the cage was sealed again.
When everything around him returned to calm, Xu Zimo raised his head and said with a faint smile, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
There was no fluctuation in the sky above the head, and a figure appeared in the sky at an unknown moment.
This figure was the lich who had previously killed the flaming lion and captured the animal bones for Xu Zimo and the others.
"We don't want to be enemies with you in this matter," the lich said.
"Do you know me?" Xu Zimo asked.
"I don't know him, but someone does," the lich replied.
"This is a journey in muddy water. It will do no good to you, and of course it will do no harm."
"Who?" Xu Zimo asked with a frown.
"I can't say, but you will meet in the future," the lich replied.
"If you have any questions for your honor, I can answer them for you.
But we really don’t want to be your enemy in this matter.”
Xu Zimo didn't speak, he was thinking.
The success or failure of this matter really has nothing to do with him.
"I want to know about Emperor Ming," Xu Zimo replied.
"Your Majesty, please come with me," the Lich waved his hand, the surrounding cages shattered, and a void door appeared in front of him.
Following the other party, Xu Zimo also stepped in.
As soon as he entered the void, Xu Zimo felt a strange power.
It's as if time and space have been retraced.
There are traces of the long river of time flowing through the void.
He walked through the air, as if walking in the river of time.
Keep moving forward, tracing back to the source of some things.
Suddenly, the void in front of him shook, and the picture began to rotate, turning everything upside down.
