541: Chapter 233 Empty Coffin_2 541: Chapter 233 Empty Coffin_2 Yang Jian was the first to reveal a puzzled expression and said, “Empty?”
“Indeed, it is empty.
There’s no corpse of Haotian here, just a resentful spirit.
It’s quite strange.
Could it be that Haotian is still alive?”
Sun Wukong also sensed that the bronze coffin was empty, devoid of any corpse.
A powerhouse like Haotian, even in death, his body would be everlasting and not just disappear.
Moreover, nourished by ninety-nine dragon veins, it’s even less likely to have dissolved.
There are only two explanations: one is that Haotian never died in the first place.
Despite the presence of a resentful spirit, it could be sothing he deliberately created himself to deceive living beings.
The second possibility is that Haotian did die but was reborn after death, and escaped from the tomb, having already left the place long ago.
Given the strength of the resentful spirit now, Haotian’s power should not be weak.
“If Haotian is indeed still alive, that would be quite terrifying.
After lying dormant for countless years, what exactly has he been doing?
How much strength has he accumulated?
Likely no one knows.
Once it erupts, it might turn heaven and earth upside down,” said Great Emperor Ziwei gravely.
This was no exaggeration.
Since the Creation of Heaven and Earth, he was the first Supre of the Three Realms.
If The Three Pure Ones expelled the Eastern Emperor Tai Yi and Emperor Jun because they were too violent,
Then, dealing with Haotian God was out of fear.
Even they felt that Haotian God was getting close to them, possibly having reached their level.
Given ti, Haotian God might pose a threat to them.
The exalted position of The Three Pure Ones would naturally be at risk.
If Haotian were indeed alive and had been hiding until now, the amount of strength he could accumulate would definitely be described as terrifying.
Just thinking about it caused the group to involuntarily turn pale.
“Can’t be, soone can be that patient?” asked Yang Jian, unable to help himself.
Were he in Haotian God’s position, Yang Jian felt that he definitely could not wait that long.
Sun Wukong, lost in thought, said, “If Haotian is that patient, it reminds of soone.”
“I’ve thought of that too,” said Great Emperor Ziwei, a flash of insight in his eyes.
“Who?” asked Yang Jian.
But the gazes of both n fell upon him.
Yang Jian was sowhat startled by this.
After thinking for a mont, he exclaid in surprise, “The Jade Emperor?”
Sun Wukong nodded slightly.
“Impossible, right?” said Yang Jian in shock.
If the Jade Emperor was Haotian, where did he co from?
After all, his mother was the sister of the Jade Emperor, Yunhua.
Seeing Yang Jian’s difficulty in accepting this, Sun Wukong said with a smile, “It’s just speculation, don’t take it too much to heart.”
Then Yang Jian realized that the two were rely speculating.
The three of them conversed back and forth without stopping.
anwhile, the resentful spirit nearly exploded with rage.
Not a single one among the three took it seriously; they kept talking, completely ignoring its presence.
“You dare to disregard in such a manner, it’s the height of insolence and disgrace,” roared the resentful spirit, startling Sun Wukong and the rest back to attention.
Only then did they rember the resentful spirit, exchanging awkward glances.
Indeed, they hadn’t shown much respect to this adversary, having forgotten it to the side.
Though powerful, the resentful spirit couldn’t withstand the three of them combined and wasn’t as strong as they had expected.
Hence, they weren’t very concerned about it, not out of intentional disrespect.
“Let’s kill this resentful spirit first,” proposed Great Emperor Ziwei.
Sun Wukong and the others naturally didn’t object.
They nodded, and the three advanced together.
At this mont, a powerful aura emanated from the three of them, enveloping the resentful spirit.
Sensing their murderous intent and aura, the resentful spirit’s expression changed slightly.
It realized sothing was wrong.
The power of these three was too strong.
Just taking one of them could match it.
Moreover, as Great Emperor Ziwei approached, the resentful spirit felt an eeriness, as if death was near.
The resentful spirit imdiately understood it had been too careless.
The three were exceptionally strong, far from the weaklings it had imagined.
The idea of subjugating such powerful individuals now seed preposterous; it would be fortunate if they did not kill it.
“”If you leave now, I shall not pursue your offense, just don’t make another mistake.”
The Resentful Spirits felt sowhat panicked inside, but they maintained a calm exterior and continued to rebuke loudly.
As a result, no one paid any attention to it.
Sun Wukong and his companions made their move, attacking the Resentful Spirits.
It was a battle without any suspense.
In just a mont, the Resentful Spirits were killed.
Sun Wukong and the others approached the bronze coffin and looked inside.
It was empty except for so lingering aura of the Resentful Spirits; beyond that, there was nothing at all.
The three looked at each other and saw the gravity on each other’s faces.
They were almost certain that if Haotian was not buried here, then he had not died, or had resurrected and left this place.
Otherwise, even if the body had dissipated, there would still be so trace of it.
After all, if re malevolent energy could cultivate to such an extent, how much more so the body of Haotian God?
“Let’s hope that guy isn’t scheming within the Three Realms,”
Great Emperor Ziwei said solemnly.
If Haotian God were scheming within the Three Realms, it would surely be catastrophic.
When Haotian made his move, even The Three Pure Ones would be in danger.
Let alone their Heavenly Court, although it is called supre in the Three Realms, it is far from being as powerful as The Three Pure Ones joined together.
Yet Sun Wukong was not worried, and he said with a smile, “Old Sun actually hopes the Haotian God isn’t dead, so when he shows up we’ll see whether Haotian God is more formidable, or The Three Pure Ones are.”
Although Great Emperor Ziwei and the others were sowhat expectant, they were not as carefree as Sun Wukong.
They were keenly aware of what it ant for Haotian God to be alive; it could likely lead to a battle that would destroy the Three Realms.
“Since Haotian God is not here, we should also leave.
Lingering in a tomb is not to Old Sun’s liking; it’s too ominous.”
Sun Wukong said, not wanting to stay there any longer.
He had thought he might be able to glimpse the remains of Haotian God, but the sarcophagus was empty.
Not seeing Haotian God, Sun Wukong naturally did not want to wait there any longer.
Great Emperor Ziwei nodded, and they left together.
The trio exited the tent, and after pondering for a mont, Great Emperor Ziwei cast a spell, sealing off the place completely.
Unless one’s power reached the level of the supre Great Heavenly Venerate, even if the place was discovered, the seal could not be broken.
“Seal off this place completely, cutting off the supply of spiritual energy, hoping that with the passage of ti, this small world will be completely worn away,”
Great Emperor Ziwei said.
There were demon spirits and ninety-nine Dragon Veins here.
But with the spiritual energy cut off, the place would ultimately reach its end.
Even the greatest of existences would be worn away.
Spiritual energy, or perhaps more aptly described as energy, is fundantal to the existence of living beings.
Sun Wukong was indifferent; he was uninterested in all of this.
The three returned to the Three Realms, and only three days had passed.
But upon returning to the Three Realms, the three felt that sothing was not right.
The atmosphere between heaven and earth was filled with a murderous air.
This shook all three of them; sothing had definitely happened in the Three Realms.
At that mont, dozens of ssaging Jade Talismans ca flying over, each heading towards the three of them.
Sun Wukong opened one to look, and he was imdiately shocked.
Great Emperor Ziwei and Yang Jian had the sa expressions; the ssaging Jade Talismans were all talking about the sa thing.
The Jade Emperor had declared war on the Heavenly Court.
They had already fought a battle, but it was just a confrontation between the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals.
Their elites had not yet made a move against each other.
anwhile, Kunlun had also started expanding outward.
At the sa ti, enslaving the living beings on the surface made life unbearable for those who ruled the regions.
If it weren’t for the Heavenly Court sending out an army, stationing troops around Kunlun, they would still be expanding.
Even the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow made several attempts to wipe out the army of the Heavenly Court.
If it hadn’t been for Tathagata’s intervention, blocking the Tenth Son of the Golden Crow, those hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals would have been annihilated.
And that’s not all; the Demon Realm was also attacking, and the True Martial Great Emperor and the Demon Realm’s army were locked in a difficult battle.
Great Emperor Ziwei couldn’t believe that in just a few days of his absence so much had occurred, and he found it difficult to react.
“Hurry back to the Heavenly Court,”
Great Emperor Ziwei said.
Sun Wukong said gravely, “I’ll go to Huaguo Mountain, let know if there’s any decision.”
“Alright.”
Great Emperor Ziwei nodded, then hurriedly departed with Yang Jian.
