Chapter 2407 Cold Palace
Many cultivators seemed to be hiding here. However, as if they had received orders, no one came to stop Qin Yu.
While moving forward, Qin Yu sensed a tremendously gloomy internal qi.
Qin Yu frowned slightly and entered directly.
“It seems to be the cold palace where the emperor keeps his concubines. The concubines who have committed crimes will repent here, and some can’t even leave for the rest of their lives.”
Jue Wu had come into contact with the people of the Great Xia Royal Family in the past, so she had a rough understanding of the situation.
Qin Yu did not care about this. With his current power of the soul, he still felt cold, which was a little strange.
Suddenly, a burst of sobbing came from the side of a well.
A woman in a red wind robe was crying by the well.
“Girl, are you alright?”
Chang Mang walked over and asked in a muffled voice.
The woman turned her head, and her rotten face stared at Chang Mang. The corners of her lips curled into a smile, and a hoarse voice came out from her mouth.
“I’m so cold!”
“Oh my god! It’s a ghost!”
Chang Mang let out a wolf howl, his legs desperately stomping the ground. He was so scared that he almost peed.
“Ah!”
The red-robed woman’s face revealed a sinister expression as she instantly transformed into a streak of red light and crashed into Chang Mang.
At this moment, Chang Mang came back to his senses and struck out with his palm.
However, this woman straightaway pierced through his palm and then Chang Mang’s body.
In an instant, Chang Mang’s internal qi weakened significantly.
However, the woman’s internal qi seemed to be blooming. Her blood-red robe was so red that blood seemed to be dripping.
“This woman seems to have a spirit body. I can’t touch her!”
Chang Mang roared. Although he had not reached the Tribulation Transcending Stage, he was only a step away from it. Coupled with his innate holy body, he would not be defeated straightaway when facing a Tribulation Transcending Stage cultivator. However, he could not do anything to this red-robed woman.
Jue Wu suddenly pointed out with her finger. The finger that carried a trace of Vermillion Bird’s flames pierced through the red-robed woman instantly.
She let out a shrill scream.
But it was almost simultaneously that a gust of cold wind blew past them from all directions.
“Ancestral temple? It was the burial ground of the ancestors of the Great Xia Royal Family.” Jue Wu looked at the enormous temple, and an ill feeling flashed across her heart.
The resentment here was even denser, at least ten times than the cold palace.
“There is indeed something fishy!”
Qin Yu suddenly stepped into the ancestral temple. In an instant, a cold resentment rushed into his sea of consciousness.
Every second he stood there consumed a vast amount of his soul power.
In front of him was a massive space filled with the smell of mud. There were exquisite stone sculptures on the pillars.
All the exquisite patterns on the palace’s roof and walls told the solemnity of this place.
Hundreds of spirit tablets were placed on the left and right sides of the table.
These were all the ancestors of the Great Xia Royal Family. Back then, the Great Xia Royal Family could establish a dynasty, and its power could be said to be the world’s ruler. Who would have thought that today, only the prince and his bloodline remained?
However, Qin Yu did not notice the internal qi that the desolate divine eye had comprehended previously.
“Something must have been hidden here.”
Qin Yu’s expression changed.
“Break!”
Endless golden light spread out from the desolate divine eye on his forehead again. At this moment, the world before him suddenly became ominous.
In the temple, countless little ghosts with powerful internal qi were playing around.
A rotten and sinister internal qi filled the entire space. It was the first time Qin Yu had seen such a massive ghostly qi.
The entire temple had been corroded by the ghostly qi. Hundreds of mirrors were hanging above.
And a woman’s face appeared in each mirror.
Some were laughing strangely, some were sticking flowers, some were using knives to hurt their faces, and some were calm.
And a tremendously strange sword was floating above the temple.
The sword seemed to have no physical body, and the hilt was made of a scarecrow.
A strange wind chime was tied to the sword hilt and the body.
Even though Qin Yu had experienced countless hardships and challenges, the scene before him sent shivers down his spine.
“Is this the f*cking palace or the netherworld?”
Qin Yu’s scalp went numb. He could not figure out what was going on.
At this moment, the space suddenly trembled.
