Chapter 558 World Invasion: Cannon Fodder in Infinite Terror VS The Ghost King Killed by the Origina
When Xiao Jing'an woke up, he realized that three or four days had passed. After leaving the cemetery, he sensed Su Jinyue's location and quickly chased after her.
Destroying the formation didn't waste much time, but this was, after all, the last fragment of the soul and dragon energy. Integrating this part with the original one would indeed take time.
Xiao Jing'an didn't expect that the final fusion would take so long, but the long time also had its advantages. He could feel that his strength was also increasing rapidly.
He didn't have time to gauge how much his strength had increased before rushing anxiously towards Su Jinyue as soon as he left the cemetery.
Xiao Jing'an knew that Su Jinyue was quite capable, and that she wouldn't be in any danger if he was careful. However, he couldn't help but worry, and he could only feel at ease when he had her by his side.
Upon arriving and finding that Su Jinyue did not act rashly, Xiao Jing'an was relieved.
Before long, Su Jinyue, who was outside the formation, saw Xiao Jing'an rushing over.
However, what arrived before Xiao Jing'an himself was the aura and oppressive feeling emanating from Xiao Jing'an's soul. If it weren't for the familiar feeling she felt from his soul, Su Jinyue would have been tempted to attack.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jing'an's strength increased so much after his soul body was completely fused. Su Jinyue could sense that he had tried his best to restrain himself, but even the slightest overflow of soul power brought Su Jinyue an overwhelming aura.
Perhaps because souls exist in this world, even though Su Jinyue collected fragments of her lover's soul in other worlds, the oppressive feeling she experienced from those fragments was never as profound as it was this time.
However, no matter how strong his or her lover's soul is, he or she will always be his or her lover.
Xiao Jing'an's strength has increased at just the right time, and he has just tracked down the Imperial Preceptor's whereabouts. Now, the Imperial Preceptor has no chance of escaping!
Su Jinyue and Xiao Jing'an met up and briefly explained their respective situations to each other.
Upon hearing that those who reinforced the formation at the cemetery had ended up here, Xiao Jing'an's gaze turned cold, and he looked up towards the bamboo forest.
"There are maze formations and illusion formations set up in the bamboo forest. People who don't understand formations and don't know how to enter or exit them can't see them or get in. That's probably why they can hide so well."
“However,” Su Jinyue changed the subject, “it’s a pity they ran into me. This kind of formation is child’s play for me. I know how to break it at a glance…”
Xiao Jing'an turned to look at the smug Su Jinyue, and seeing her showing off to him like a child asking for praise, he couldn't help but smile.
He had been in this world for some time now, but everything here was completely different from his previous life.
There is no longer an emperor here, everyone is equal, and he has actually become a spirit!
A myriad of changes swept in, but the only thing that remained unchanged was her!
No, Su Jinyue here is also somewhat different from his empress, becoming more mysterious and powerful, but Xiao Jing'an can confirm that no matter how she changes, she will always be his empress!
She is the lover he will search for and protect for the rest of his life and for all eternity!
Xiao Jing'an looked at Su Jinyue affectionately and praised her gently, "My Zitong is really amazing. I'll leave the rest to Zitong."
Su Jinyue felt a little embarrassed by Xiao Jing'an's gaze, but then she thought that these were nothing to her, and she became confident again.
"To avoid alerting them, we won't disrupt the formation; we'll just sneak in," Su Jinyue said seriously.
"Ahem, I'm going in now, so you must keep up with me!"
"So you don't get lost in the formation and I have to come and rescue you!"
"Okay." Xiao Jing'an indulged Su Jinyue's antics.
Before entering the formation, the two could still joke around easily, but after entering, they both became serious.
We don't know what's going on inside yet, so we can't let our guard down!
The maze and illusion arrays were no problem for Su Jinyue; the two of them easily entered them.
The situation inside was quite unexpected for Su Jinyue.
Su Jinyue originally thought that the National Preceptor's hiding place was inside the formation, along with his disciples, covering an area of several dozen acres, plus a Taoist temple, which would be about right.
However, what Su Jinyue actually saw was a mountain that stretched for thousands of miles!
The location of the formation was ingenious; it was situated precisely where it connected to the mountain outside, preventing the mountain inside from disappearing abruptly.
However, Su Jinyue believed that the Imperial Preceptor was not capable enough to hide such a vast area and claim it for himself.
Moreover, this world is a parallel world to the one Xiao Jing'an transmigrated from; the two worlds are quite similar.
Even if this world has mutated due to ghosts and monsters, a thousand years ago, the spiritual energy or profound energy of this world would not have been sufficient for the Grand Preceptor to set up such a large formation.
Perhaps there's a hidden paradise here!
Su Jinyue had secretly marked the group of senior brothers beforehand. She closed her eyes to sense the location of the marks, then called Xiao Jing'an and headed in the direction of the marks.
The two hiked swiftly through the mountains for about an hour before finally spotting a cluster of buildings near the summit.
The buildings are built against the mountain, and the overall layout resembles a sect in a fantasy world, grand, majestic, and solemn.
Even standing outside the mountain gate, Su Jinyue could feel the solemnity and danger emanating from the sect.
This building alone shows that it's not something a national advisor could support.
Moreover, judging from the architectural traces, this place has existed for at least three thousand years. Could it be that there were cultivators in this world before?
Su Jinyue stared at the mountain gate in deep thought, then suddenly came to her senses and wondered why she was thinking so far ahead.
Even if this place has some history, it has fallen into decline in this degenerate age.
With Su Jinyue's strength, she wouldn't be afraid of even some powerful figures!
It's probably because the entire sect is within an illusion array, or because they're confident there's nothing in the mountain that could threaten them, that there isn't even a gatekeeper at the mountain gate.
Su Jinyue looked into the gate and saw that the nearest building was a kilometer away, and there wasn't a soul in sight.
However, this also made things easier for Su Jinyue. As night fell, it got dark even earlier in the mountains, so even if she walked in openly, probably no one would notice.
However, Su Jinyue was still quite cautious. She cast an invisibility spell on herself, and it was even simpler for Xiao Jing'an, since he was originally a soul, and people without the third eye couldn't see him at all.
With everything prepared, Su Jinyue and her companion walked inside.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that although the buildings looked magnificent and solemn, their interiors were already marked by the passage of time, and upon closer inspection, they were quite dilapidated.
Based on the size of this complex, it was estimated that it could house tens of thousands of people at its peak, but even now, the weeds on the roads have not been cleared in time.
I estimate that there aren't many people living here anymore.
