Ye Feng fell silent.
So the story between them was so tragic.
These were two people in love.
The woman was skilled in ancient dance, and the man was adept at playing the flute. They should have been a pair, but war kept them apart.
In the end, they perished one after the other.
The woman's soul turned into the Artifact Spirit of the flute that belonged to her loved one, achieving a sort of unusual togetherness.
"You indeed had a hard life," Ye Feng sighed softly.
The man died in battle, while the woman beca an Artifact Spirit.
One has to admit, the conclusion of the story's protagonists was tragic, and even Ye Feng couldn't help but feel sympathy.
But soon, Ye Feng's attention turned to another elent.
The Immortal Realm?
The Artifact Spirit of the Demonic Flute and the man she loved actually ca from the Immortal Realm? Now that's interesting!
This Sacred Arm was a treasure rewarded by the System.
But it ca from the Immortal Realm.
Then, what exactly is the System?
Ye Feng grew even more curious.
Whether from the Three Thousand Realms or the Immortal Realm, the System sohow managed to obtain such things.
Could it be that soone was masterminding a grand ga from behind the scenes?
Was he a chess piece, or a chess player?
Ye Feng's thoughts grew more complex.
Seeing him lost in thought, the Artifact Spirit of the Demonic Flute asked, "Sect Leader, what's wrong?"
Ye Feng ca back to his senses and shook his head, "Nothing, I just think you've suffered greatly. I'm curious, why didn't you co together before the war broke out?"
The Artifact Spirit of the Demonic Flute let out a light sigh, "Because he was the Sect's prodigy, designated to marry the princess of an Immortal Kingdom. If he were with , it would have hard ."
"Another one of those lodramatic plots!" Ye Feng quipped.
"Yes, it's quite frustrating!" The Artifact Spirit of the Demonic Flute sighed sorrowfully.
"So, what happened after that? Why did he go to the battlefield?" Ye Feng, driven by curiosity, quickly asked.
The Artifact Spirit of the Demonic Flute fell silent for a mont before speaking,
"Because a war erupted between two Great Immortal Kingdoms, he volunteered to go to the battlefield to delay his marriage with the princess. He hoped that by achieving glory, he could annul the marriage contract and stay with ."
"But who would have known..."
"His departure left nothing but this flute!"
The woman caressed the Demonic Flute, but as an Artifact Spirit, she couldn't even shed a tear.
Hearing this, Ye Feng felt a great deal of sympathy.
"By the way, I still don't know your nas, and which Immortal Kingdom do you hail from?" Ye Feng thought of sothing and quickly inquired.
"My na is Shi Youyou, and we both co from the Peaceful Immortal Kingdom. As for him, his na is Zhang Beihan," the Artifact Spirit of the Demonic Flute, Shi Youyou, said softly.
"Zhang Beihan?" Ye Feng raised an eyebrow.
Hearing the words "Beihan," the first thing that ca to his mind was Emperor Beihe, renowned across the Shenzhou Continent.
However, it was clear these two couldn't be the sa person!
That's because Emperor Beihe was a man of the Shenzhou Continent.
Unless...
Zhang Beihan was Emperor Beihe's previous life!
Ye Feng thought of many possibilities.
"Sect Leader, do you know him?" the Artifact Spirit Shi Youyou asked, puzzled. "I forgot to ask, is this the Immortal Realm? I've noticed that the spiritual energy here is rich, but lacks Immortal Qi."
Ye Feng shook his head: "This isn't the Immortal Realm, nor the Immortal Realm, but the Shenzhou Continent, which lies in an endlessly distant place."
"The Shenzhou Continent?" Shi Youyou looked baffled.
However, realizing that her loved one had perished and that returning to the Peaceful Immortal Kingdom in the Immortal Realm no longer held any aning, her mindset gradually cald.
"Do you know of Emperor Beihe?" Ye Feng asked Shi Youyou. Although he did not know if Emperor Beihe was Zhang Beihan, it was always right to ask.
"I do not," Shi Youyou shook her head.
"In our Shenzhou, a favored son of heaven erged thousands of years ago. This man was revered as Emperor Beihe. Several hundred years ago, he broke through to the Saint Entry Realm and went to the Immortal Realm, never to return."
Ye Feng changed the subject: "I previously suspected that Emperor Beihe might be the reincarnation of Zhang Beihan."
"Is that possible?" Shi Youyou furrowed her brow but still wanted to learn about Emperor Beihe, "Sect Leader, could you take to a place where Emperor Beihe once stayed?"
"I can," Ye Feng nodded affirmatively.
The next mont.
He tore through space with the Demonic Flute and Shi Youyou, racing towards the Minor Immortal Realm at their swiftest speed.
Halfway through, they traveled in silence.
One hour later.
In the Minor Immortal Realm, two figures appeared out of thin air, arriving in front of a small courtyard where Emperor Beihe had once resided.
"This aura!"
Shi Youyou imdiately felt a familiar aura rushing towards her, swiftly entering the courtyard.
As she walked through, perusing Emperor Beihe's paintings and calligraphy, and touching nearby objects, her gaze gradually changed.
"Although the aura has changed, there's sothing similar about it; it seems very likely that Emperor Beihe is his reincarnated self!"
Shi Youyou was excited.
"Unfortunately, Emperor Beihe has already left for the Immortal Realm, and it will be more than twenty years before the passage there opens; we can't cross over for the ti being," Ye Feng said.
"Then we'll just wait another twenty years!" Shi Youyou clenched her fists, "When I see Emperor Beihe with my own eyes, I can confirm if he is Zhang Beihan's reincarnated self."
"Mm, that works," Ye Feng nodded.
He looked around, thought of sothing, and went down to the depths underground, standing before a huge shield seal.
"Ye Feng, you damned beast! Once I break out, I will kill you!"
As soon as Ye Feng arrived, he was greeted with the Corpse Monarch's foul curses.
"Curse all you want now, because later you won't have the chance. After all, in a short while, I'll behead you."
Ye Feng said, arms folded.
"Kill ? With your ability?" The Corpse Monarch laughed, his voice full of mockery towards Ye Feng.
Ye Feng didn't speak.
Using the power of the Misty Boundary, he ignored the barrier, entered the Dark Space within the shield, and with a surge of energy, repelled countless Yin Sha Forces.
Since the Corpse Monarch controlled this area, those Yin Sha Forces couldn't be absorbed.
Otherwise, Ye Feng would certainly devour them.
By doing so, he could strengthen his Slaughter Energy, making it reach one ten-thousandth of its potential, or even higher.
"Goodness! Are you coming in here to seek death?"
The Corpse Monarch laughed loudly, the coffin he was in emitting a terrifying aura as countless Yin Sha Forces transford into claws, raining down on Ye Feng.
Boom!
With a muffled sound, Ye Feng was torn apart.
"Hissss!"
Watching from the outside, Shi Youyou gasped in shock, not expecting Ye Feng to die just like that.
Then, she looked at the countless black coffins inside the shield and the endless fog of Yin Sha Forces, her pupils shrinking.
"Corp...Corpse Monarch, it's you!"
Shi Youyou exclaid in shock.
"You know of ?" The Corpse Monarch's Divine Sense swept over Shi Youyou, "Eh! You seem to be from the Immortal Realm, but you've been refined into an Artifact Spirit, quite peculiar indeed."
"How do you know about the Corpse Monarch?" At this mont, Ye Feng's voice rang out, capturing everyone's attention.
Especially Shi Youyou, her face was full of disbelief.
"You... you're not dead?" she said in shock.
Ye Feng stood on top of the Corpse Monarch's coffin, hands spread, helplessly said, "How could I possibly die?"
"Damn you! Get off my coffin this instant!" The Corpse Monarch raged, his aura shaking as he once again tore Ye Feng to pieces.
But soon, Ye Feng appeared, unhard.
He still stood atop the Corpse Monarch's coffin, activated the Eye of Insight, and finally obtained the most detailed information about the Corpse Monarch.
[Na: Corpse Monarch]
[Grade: Hundred Tribulations Realm tenth layer]
[Law: Yin Sha Force]
[Remarks: From the Immortal Realm millions of years ago, he was one of the most top-notch powerhouses of the ti, sweeping through all Supre Saint Realms, eventually sealed by the Sun and Moon Immortal Venerables]
"To be at the tenth layer of the Hundred Tribulations Realm!"
Ye Feng drew a cold breath.
Had he not been sealed, unable to breakthrough, millions of years would have passed, and the Corpse Monarch probably could have cultivated to the Perfection of the Hundred Tribulations Realm.
Even... the Heavenly Dao Realm!
"The tenth layer of the Hundred Tribulations Realm?"
Hearing Ye Feng's words, the Corpse Monarch was quite astonished, "Could it be, is that the na of the Hidden Realm?"
"Yes!" Ye Feng nodded.
The next mont, his body flickered slightly, quickly returning outside the shield, standing beside Shi Youyou.
Facing the Corpse Monarch of Hundred Tribulations Realm tenth layer, Ye Feng felt helpless.
He had planned to ask an Ancient Holy God for help, but the current Tyrant Emperor could only exert the strength of the Hundred Tribulations Realm fifth layer, definitely not enough to kill the even more terrifying Corpse Monarch.
Throughout the Three Thousand Realms, only a few could suppress the Corpse Monarch.
"Truly formidable, a powerhouse who once swept through the Immortal Kingdom millions of years ago, reaching the tenth layer of the Hundred Tribulations Realm, how terrifying!"
Ye Feng swallowed nervously.
At this mont, Shi Youyou looked towards Ye Feng, and exclaid in shock:
"Sect Leader, what on earth is going on? Why is the Corpse Monarch here? And, he seems to be in perfect condition!"
Shi Youyou was utterly astonished.
