An emperor in his later years is summoned by his sister to save the nation's fate.

To everyone's horror, Liu Chengfeng's head suddenly rose directly from his neck without warning!

Then, the surface of the head was quickly covered by a layer of human skin, and it transformed out of thin air into a brand new human head lantern, which slowly floated into the group of lanterns!

"Junior Brother Liu!"

Everyone gasped in shock, their faces filled with horror. What kind of heaven-defying killing pattern was this? Just by being illuminated by the red light, the head of a powerful expert at the Dao Slaying Realm was instantly severed?

However, although Liu Chengfeng's head was forcibly removed, he was still a powerful expert at the Dao-Slaying Realm, and his main cultivation law was special.

No blood was spurting from the severed neck of his headless corpse.

Instead, countless golden buds and blood vessels wriggled and intertwined wildly at the wound.

In just a few breaths.

With a "crack," Liu Chengfeng actually managed to grow a completely new head by relying on the Law of Life he cultivated!

"Huff... huff..."

Although the decapitation was successfully regenerated, the amount of power of laws and primordial blood consumed in growing a new head was simply too enormous.

Liu Chengfeng's face was pale and he looked weak.

He knew very well that if this absurd red light shone on him a few more times, even he, a powerful expert at the Dao Severing Realm, would definitely be worn down and die here!

"How dare they! They're nothing but some charlatans pretending to be gods and spirits, yet they dare to harm the people of my Primordial Holy Land!"

Zhao Jinhuan was filled with shock and anger. He suddenly made a hand seal and began chanting incantations.

"Crimson Emperor Fire and Thunder! Break!"

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning, radiating a blinding red light, shot directly from Zhao Jinhuan's palm and struck the center of the group of human head lanterns.

Amidst flashes of lightning, dozens of floating human-head lanterns were blasted into charred remains by this devastating lightning magic, turning into billowing black smoke.

"Hmph, utterly pathetic." Zhao Jinhuan sneered, but his sneer lasted for less than two seconds.

"How is that possible?"

In the black smoke where the lightning dissipated, the human head lantern, which had been blasted into dust, reappeared intact, like a phantom!

The quantity is even greater than before!

Such an unsolvable and bizarre scene caused even these well-informed Dao-Slaying Realm experts in the Xuan Tian Realm to feel a deep sense of solemnity and goosebumps.

What they were facing at that moment was none other than an A-level bizarre human head lantern ghost in a bizarre world!

Because of this unsolvable killing rule that kills instantly upon exposure and cannot be eliminated by conventional means, its suppressive power in this bizarre world is terrifying!

Just as more lanterns turned around, preparing to unleash their red light and completely surround and kill these living people.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Qingyue decisively took out the wooden carving that Emperor Yongye had given her before his departure from her storage ring!

Before she could even infuse her magic to release the killing intent at the limit of the Dao Slaying Realm sealed within the wooden carving, the moment the carving was removed, the faint aura of the Eternal Night Demon Emperor that naturally emanated from it spread out.

The next second, something unbelievable happened.

Originally devoid of emotion, the human-headed lantern ghost simply followed the rules of murder in a cold and ruthless manner.

In the empty eye sockets of that human head, a human-like, extreme fear from the deepest part of the soul flashed across them!

"Whoosh whoosh!"

It didn't even dare to release a sliver of red light again. The human-headed lantern ghost seemed to have encountered the greatest natural enemy in the world. In a disheveled manner, it instantly shrank back into the depths of the burial pit and disappeared from everyone's sight!

The crisis was thus dramatically averted.

Zhao Jinhuan, Liu Chengfeng, and the others exchanged glances, then gasped in shock.

"This...is this the Emperor's divine power?"

"This is terrifying! Even a mere inanimate object tainted with the aura of an emperor, without even being activated, was enough to frighten away this unkillable evil spirit. The power of an emperor, even in this bizarre minor world, possesses such incredible efficacy!"

The awe and reverence that everyone felt for the Eternal Night Demon Emperor reached its peak at this moment.

However, Li Qingyue, who was holding the wooden carving, frowned slightly.

She felt like something was off.

"Based on the Emperor's previous warning and our recent contact, these evil spirits should essentially be a group of machines without self-awareness, only knowing how to kill according to stereotypical rules."

Li Qingyue pondered to herself, "Since they have no consciousness, how could they understand fear? And how could they be so frightened by simply sensing the aura of a wooden carving that they would flee like living people?"

This was also what puzzled her the most. However, given the current perilous environment and the fact that the wood carving was so useful, she didn't delve too deeply into it.

And just then...

"Shhh—"

A series of light footsteps came from the other side of the mine.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Xueyao, dressed in rough linen clothes, appeared in the area with a wary expression.

When Lu Xueyao saw Li Qingyue and the others ahead, her eyes narrowed instantly, and her blood nerves were activated to their maximum.

Because in her senses, she actually sensed a familiar aura from this group of unfamiliar miners!

Especially the wooden carving held in that beautiful woman's hand, the aura emanating from it was exactly the same as the scent on my brother!

"What are they? They still carry my brother's aura? Could they be some kind of advanced supernatural entity capable of disguising itself as a living person?"

Lu Xueyao guessed in her heart.

Meanwhile, upon seeing Lu Xueyao, Zhao Jinhuan immediately whispered to Li Qingyue, "Holy Maiden, this person seems to be the chosen one I inquired about before."

Upon hearing the words "Chosen One," and considering Lu Xueyao's facial features, Li Qingyue instantly recalled the portrait the Great Emperor had left for her in his sea of ​​consciousness before his departure.

"It was her!"

Li Qingyue immediately lowered her guard, stepped forward, and showed a gentle and kind smile.

"May I ask... are you Sister Xueyao?"

He was surprised to hear the other person call him by his name so affectionately.

The seriousness in Lu Xueyao's eyes deepened.

"It even knows my name? This is definitely a monster that has read my memories!"

Lu Xueyao felt a chill run down her spine and prepared without hesitation to summon the Starving Ghost to fight to the death.

"Don't do it."

Just as tensions were about to rise, Lu Li's voice finally rang in her mind, dispelling her doubts in time.

"She is not a ghost. This woman is named Li Qingyue, and she is a disciple of an old friend of mine."

Lu Li explained simply, "I had some backup plans beforehand, so I had her cross over to this world to deliver something to you."
