Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1529: Funeral Procession

Boom!

Little Flower suddenly exerted force, and the silver door panel made of Immortal Source whipped up a fierce wind, forcibly knocking the Essence Emperor flying.

Crimson spurted——

The Essence Emperor spat blood immediately.

The Shura Soul Emperor flew over, extending a hand to catch the Essence Emperor.

The Shura Soul Emperor’s eyes lost focus, murmuring to himself, "So this is the breath of Immortal Source..."

"This is an Immortal..."

The Essence Emperor’s pupils contracted sharply, staring incredulously at the little girl in white opposite him.

In the Ancient Realm, the legend of immortals is not unheard of.

Immortals once graced this world.

The Shura Soul Emperor smiled bitterly, "Indeed, no wonder she’s so formidable! We’re simply not on her level..."

"True!" the Essence Emperor also sighed.

At this moment, the pride within these two eminent figures of the Ancient Realm finally faded completely.

"Esteemed Immortal senior, we have offended you, please forgive us!"

The Essence Emperor and Shura Soul Emperor both cupped their hands, displaying sincere admiration on their faces.

Little Flower scratched her head, turned her head to look somewhere: "Master, what should we do about this?"

"Just a misunderstanding, let them guard the secret and leave..."

Ye Yun chuckled softly.

He had no real grievance with these two Emperor Gates.

Instead, it was he who proactively bullied these two Emperor Gates.

"Esteemed Immortal senior, rest assured, only the two of us know of this matter, as for this Black Abyss, we will seal it together, and allow no one else to enter..."

The Essence Emperor quickly explained.

"As for the disciples under my gate, I will erase relevant memories, ensuring no memory of the people by the senior’s side will reappear."

The Shura Soul Emperor also made a promise.

Seeing the two of them exhibiting a good attitude and offering allegiance, Ye Yun felt quite satisfied.

"Alright, you may leave now."

Little Flower said nothing more, and returned to the Celestial Boat.

"Let’s go."

Ye Yun smiled lightly, and Little Color immediately maneuvered the Celestial Boat, vanishing into the sky above the Black Abyss.

"Farewell, esteemed Immortal senior..."

The Essence Emperor and Shura Soul Emperor exhaled deeply, shouting loudly.

Afterward, the two emperors bowed deeply in the direction of Ye Yun’s departure, expressing infinite respect from their hearts.

That young man in white, though appearing to be at the First Level of the Divine King Realm, was in fact the master of this Immortal, indicating an esteemed position.

Perhaps he is the successor of some great power in the Immortal Realm.

Moments later.

The Essence Emperor and Shura Soul Emperor jointly sealed the Black Abyss, for without the strength of two such emperors, it was utterly unbreakable.

"It’s been many years since an Immortal appeared in our Ancient Realm."

Gazing into a certain void, the Shura Soul Emperor was lost in thought.

"Indeed, I wonder where these Immortals hail from?"

The Essence Emperor sighed.

"That demon creature covered in black hair also comes from the Immortal Realm, truly inconceivable..."

The Shura Soul Emperor shook his head with a smile.

"It’s a pity we only secured so little Secret-Blood Iron this time, merely a dozen pieces from the earliest collections..."

The Essence Emperor licked his lips, revealing a look of regret.

This Secret-Blood Iron, even the Immortals value it greatly, suggesting it has significant uses.

"Be grateful, among the Nine Great Emperor Gates, only our two houses have Secret-Blood Iron, the others have none. With these, we can forge Divine Soldier Magical Treasures..."

The Shura Soul Emperor smiled indifferently.

"Hmm!"

The Essence Emperor nodded.

The two exchanged a smile, each drifting toward different voids, disappearing without a trace.

...

Several days later.

A Celestial Boat entered the Ghost Valley Domain.

"It truly is the domain of the Corpse Emperor Gate, entering this region, everywhere is cold wind howling, ghost Qi eerie, giving one goosebumps all over..."

Ye Yun gazed over the vast Ghost Valley Domain and couldn’t help but laugh.

"The Corpse Emperor Gate is even more sinister than the Fairy Pupa Gate, dealing in the business of the dead, so how could the Ghost Valley Domain feel normal?"

Leng Youyue sneered.

Yu Lingfei blinked, muttering, "If the Nine Calamities Corpse Emperor knew Master is coming, would he be scared to death?"

"I guess he might hide, perhaps not even in the Corpse Emperor Gate..."

Leng Youyue giggled.

"Hiding won’t help, if I want to find him, it would be quite easy!"

Ye Yun smiled faintly, interrupting the two.

This time he came to the Corpse Emperor Gate not only to settle accounts with the Nine Calamities Corpse Emperor, but also to see if the cultivation methods of the Corpse Emperor Gate were similar to that of the Dragon-Raising Coffin Carrying Clan.

The Celestial Boat continued to fly.

After two hours, Ye Yun saw a funeral procession thousands of miles ahead in the void.

This procession had not a single living person.

The procession was about several hundred meters long, with two rows of white paper figures particularly striking, as if they had intelligence; some holding lanterns, some carrying banners, some beating drums, and others playing suona horns, while some continuously scattered white paper money.

The white paper money fluttered like falling leaves drifting down through the air.

In front of the paper figures, there were many paper oxen and horses.

At the center of the procession, a black coffin floated, with some ancient-looking runes on the coffin.

"Interesting!" Ye Yun had never seen such a strange troupe, and looking at Leng Youyue, he couldn’t help but ask with a smile, "Is this a funeral procession?"

"Consider it a funeral procession, the coffin contains a deceased person, but these paper figures and oxen-horses are indeed intended to deliver the body in the coffin to the Corpse Emperor Gate, this funeral process is also called ’soul delivery’..."

Leng Youyue explained.

"This really gives a feeling of ghosts appearing in broad daylight..."

Ye Yun shook his head with a laugh.

"Ye Yun, could it be that you were frightened by a mere funeral procession?"

Leng Youyue covered her mouth with a smile.

"Just surprised, not frightened!"

Ye Yun chuckled, suddenly tossing out that piece of black cloth, which hovered above everyone’s heads.

"Master, are you perhaps interested in this funeral procession?"

Little Color speculated thoughtfully.

"Indeed, somewhat interested, we’ll follow this procession to the Corpse Emperor Gate and see what might happen..."

Ye Yun smiled.

Little Color acknowledged and manipulated the Celestial Boat to quickly follow, keeping merely a hundred meters away from the funeral procession.

Within Little Color’s mind it was clear, with this piece of black cloth concealing them, no one could see them.

This procession, with its musical performance and continuous scattering of white paper money, moved at a brisk pace, steadily heading toward the Corpse Emperor Gate.

After two hours.

Ye Yun discovered a few more funeral processions gradually merging with the one they were tracking into one.

As Ye Yun looked at these coffins, turning towards Leng Youyue, he curiously asked, "Are these deceased used by the Corpse Emperor Gate to refine corpses?"

"Some are for refining corpses, some will become disciples of the Corpse Emperor Gate."

Leng Youyue replied.

An image of the Nine Calamities Corpse Emperor appeared in Ye Yun’s mind, prompting him to laugh, "Could all the people in the Corpse Emperor Gate be dead?"

"Indeed, only the dead can enter the Corpse Emperor Gate, the living cannot."

Leng Youyue nodded.

Noticing Ye Yun’s confusion, Leng Youyue continued, "After a certain ritual, the dead, after a period, will revive, becoming intelligent corpses, and can then join the Corpse Emperor Gate, cultivating a unique technique!"

"That’s quite interesting indeed."

Ye Yun smiled calmly.

"Be it prominent sects, Ancient Families, or even the leaders of teachings, many are unwilling to reincarnate and start over in cultivation, so they find ways to join the Corpse Emperor Gate posthumously, reviving in that unique way to continue living in the state of undead within this Ancient Realm..."

Leng Youyue said softly.
