I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2404 - 2403: Dragon Python Holy Emperor, Holy Fall Pavilion
The great fire blazed fiercely, accompanied by the screams of two people, and in a short while, their faces were unrecognizable from the burning.
At this moment, footsteps were heard nearby.
Xu Zimei did not turn back but knew that the Holy Emperor he had arranged to meet should have arrived.
"The Robbery Immortal Domain is full of Mountain Ghosts, they are allowed to exist by the Holy Court," said the voice from behind, speaking slowly.
"The ancestor of the first generation of Mountain Ghosts once served as a Child Servant to the Holy Ancestor, hoping that the Holy Ancestor could give the Mountain Ghosts a way out."
"A race that only knows how to take, does it really need to exist?" Xu Zimei asked.
He turned his head and saw clearly the face of the Holy Emperor.
He was wearing a dragon-shaped purple robe.
On the purple robe was a coiled Five-clawed Golden Dragon, looking fierce and terrifying.
This Holy Emperor was a middle-aged man.
He walked with a majestic air, full of presence.
He had a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, short hair, and a staff made of python bone hung at his waist.
When he reached behind Xu Zimei, he overlooked the entire mountain.
In a low voice, he said, "An old and undying thief."
"The Holy Court is like this mountain, existing for too long, all things eventually decay."
"Dragon Python Holy Emperor, can I call you that?" Xu Zimei asked.
He was actually not particularly clear about the power divisions within the Holy Court.
Xu Zimei knew of the Thirty-Six Holy Emperors, but exactly who they were, he was not very sure.
And there was no need to be clear.
After all, the Thirty-Six Emperors at this level were nothing in his eyes.
But according to the Lord of the Dead Spirits, this Dragon Python Holy Emperor was among the strongest and highest in status even within the Thirty-Six Emperors.
Among Holy Emperors, there are differences in strength.
"You can call me anything, I follow the orders of the Lord of the Dead Spirits.
Since he asked me to help you, I will do whatever it takes," the Dragon Python Holy Emperor said.
"You want to seek the legacy of the Ancient Gods, right?"
Xu Zimei nodded.
He replied, "I have obtained the legacy of eight of the Nine Ancient Gods, only one remains, and the legacy of the Space Ancient God should be within the Holy Court."
"With your high status, you should know some specifics!"
"Although I haven't seen it myself, if I'm not mistaken, that legacy should be placed in the Holy Fall Pavilion," the Dragon Python Holy Emperor said.
"A long time ago, a meteor fell from the sky."
"The meteor was about a hundred meters tall, an Extraterritorial Mysterious Iron, and the Holy Ancestor wanted to use this meteor to forge a Peerless Divine Weapon.
With Supreme Great Divine Power, he drew the meteor from the Firmament into the Holy Court."
"But later it was discovered that the inside of the meteor was severely decayed, making the grade of the weapon forged from it insufficient."
"So he abandoned the idea of creating a Divine Weapon and instead built it into a heavenly pavilion, named the Holy Fall Pavilion."
"This pavilion is near the core area of the Holy Court, absolutely safe for storing things."
"Because beneath the Holy Fall Pavilion is the dojo of us Thirty-Six Emperors."
"But including myself, other Thirty-Six Emperors have never entered inside to see."
"Is there a way for me to get in?" Xu Zimei asked.
"I can help you enter the Holy Court, but the Holy Fall Pavilion, I am not sure.
Because no one knows what methods the Holy Ancestor has placed there," the Dragon Python Holy Emperor replied truthfully.
"That's enough," Xu Zimei nodded slightly.
He said, "As long as I can enter the Holy Court, I'll find a way for the rest, if not, I'll forcibly seize it."
The Dragon Python Holy Emperor nodded.
He handed Xu Zimei a garment.
This garment was not made of fabric, but of human skin, the skin of a Jiao Dragon.
"This skin is the Ink Jiao's skin, once you wear it, you can transform into my guard,"
the Dragon Python Holy Emperor said.
"As long as you don't activate your internal power, others won't notice."
"Originally this skin was intended as my second incarnation, but in a moment of urgency, I can only give it to you."
Xu Zimei took the Ink Jiao's skin, inspecting it slightly.
He found that this Ink Jiao's skin was indeed extraordinary.
First, it's a complete Jiao skin, with human bloodline diagrams engraved on it.
When others' divine sense perceives it, the bloodline diagrams on it will shield everything.
This is equivalent to a false sensory body deceiving others, thus hiding one's true self.
The craftsmanship and method on it are a new way of making, which interested Xu Zimei greatly.
He couldn't help but have a new perception of the Dragon Python Holy Emperor.
"The Holy Court is different from other places," the Dragon Python Holy Emperor explained.
"Above the Holy Court, there is a Sky-Monitoring Mirror, studied by the Immortal Lord according to the Heavenly Dao."
"Simply put, everything within the Holy Court cannot be hidden from the illumination of the Sky-Monitoring Mirror."
"By wearing this Ink Jiao skin, you can evade the Sky-Monitoring Mirror, but once you activate your power and make a move, you'll be instantly discovered, that's all I can do."
"That's enough," Xu Zimei nodded.
He said, "I'm actually quite curious, why would you... in such a high position in the Holy Court..."
"Still betray, right?" The Dragon Python Holy Emperor smiled.
It seemed he knew Xu Zimei would ask this question long ago.
This is a question many people find incomprehensible.
The Thirty-Six Holy Emperors, especially the top ones.
In this world, they hold a supreme high status!
"In the Robbery Immortal Domain, there is an area called Blood Fish Bay," the Dragon Python Holy Emperor said.
"You should know this."
"The four major forces of the Robbery Immortal Domain: Blood Fish Bay, East Hundred City, Immortal Island, Human Emperor Hall."
"Blood Fish Bay is the territory of the Merfolk, spanning more than half of the ocean area in the Robbery Immortal Domain."
"But actually, earlier, Blood Fish Bay wasn't called this, it was once known as Horizon River Dragon Pool."
"That was the territory of my Jiao Dragon Clan."
"Around Horizon River, eight waters flowed out around it."
"This is an excellent aquatic environment, the best for my Jiao Dragon Clan's growth."
"Many years ago, in my grandfather's time."
"So long ago, even the Holy Ancestor might have nearly forgotten."
"At that time, the Holy Ancestor had a great disciple named Haotian."
"He needed a mount and targeted our Jiao Dragon Clan."
"Everyone thinks the Jiao Dragon Clan is inferior to the Dragon Clan, but actually, our Ink Jiao is the most ferocious, we are not afraid even of the Dragon Clan."
"My grandfather didn't want to become the mount of a mere child, so he led our clan in resistance."
Speaking of this, the Dragon Python Holy Emperor couldn't help but close his eyes.
He was born from the legacy of the Jiao Dragon Clan.
Although he did not experience that era firsthand, he could fully empathize.
Because within the dragon blood that bears the legacy, the sages of the Dragon Clan were among them back then.
Xu Zimei could also imagine this.
No matter how strong the Jiao Dragon Clan was, ultimately it was just one race.
Compared to the Holy Court, it's still like the difference between the bright moon and a mere grain of rice.
