Martial World's
Ch 656 - Opening the Goddess Sarcophagus Once Again
…
…
…
Lin Ming led Duanmu Qun and the others to leave the tomb, arriving back in the dark room where they could not even see their own fingers in front of them. There is a slight distortion in the power of space here. If not for Lin Ming leading the way, it would have been very difficult for Duanmu Qun and the others to leave.
Just as Lin Ming was about to step out of the mountain, he suddenly felt his body tremble. At that moment, he seemed to hear the voice of an incomparable beautiful woman, like the voice of heaven, illusory and filled with crying sadness.
The voice seemed to form some strange ancient syllable. Even Lin Ming, who was familiar with the language of the Realm of the Gods as well as Ancient Giant Demons', still could not fully understand the meaning behind it.
He slowed his pace and glanced at Duanmu Qun and the others. He wanted to see if they heard this voice or not, but their expressions were calm; obviously they heard nothing.
"Is something wrong, Brother Lin?" Duanmu Qun asked, unsure why Lin Ming had stopped.
"No . '' Lin Ming shook his head. Since no one heard this voice then it would be useless if he mentioned it. It would be best if he didn't talk about it at all.
"Oh. "Muan Qun saw that Lin Ming did not wish to speak any further and intelligently did not suppress this matter.
Lin Ming slowed down his steps, listening to the woman's voice as he walked. If he was right, then this voice was left behind by the goddess inside the sarcophagus. Lin Ming had investigated his body but had yet to find any signs of life. Obviously, he's been dead for a very, very long time. Then, these sounds must have come from the array formation he left behind, or perhaps it came from the battle spirit of his remaining will. His strength was most likely no less than that of a Saintess of the Feather Nyala Holy Land, a top figure even within the Realm of the Gods. It was not strange if he could leave behind a battle spirit that was still around after tens of thousands of years.
As Lin Ming walked, he listened to this voice this entire time. Although he could not fully understand it, he still carefully memorized these words in his heart. The more he listened, the more he felt afraid. He, Duanmu Qun, Feng Shen, and Lan Xin had all entered the tomb together, but he was the only one who could hear this voice. What voice was he trying to tell her?
"Let's go back!"
Lin Ming suddenly said as he stopped.
"Ah" Lan Xin and Duanmu Qun were shocked. They did not think that Lin Ming would have this kind of thinking even after they left the mountain.
Duanmu Qun's intuition was that this sudden decision had something to do with the sudden pause just a moment ago. But, he wisely did not ask further.
Lin Ming brought the group back, passing through the pitch-black room until they returned in front of the unrivalled woman's sarcophagus.
Lin Ming stood in front of the sarcophagus for a long time. Then, he bowed respectfully and said, “Senior, I'm sorry for interrupting your break. ”
With this, he unbuttoned all the countless seals he had left behind and opened the sarcophagus lid.
With a rumbling sound, the sarcophagus was completely opened.
As a result, that truly perfect woman appeared in front of everyone once again.
"Lin Ming, what do you plan to do?" Lan Xin could not help but ask. Inwardly, he thought that Lin Ming should not have robbed a grave?
Duanmu Qun looked at Lan Xin, and he attentively did not say it anymore.
Lin Ming was completely silent, only staring at the beautiful woman as he lay there. He was calm, like he had just fallen asleep.
Lin Ming recalled the woman's voice from a while ago, and after a long time, he had a faint guess, "Senior, I have a reason, and it's not because junior is disrespectful. If I offend you, then please forgive me. ”
With that, Lin Ming bowed and placed his hand on the woman's body, trying to find something.
Of course not only did he fumble randomly, he had a clear goal in mind.
Before she touched it, she used her perception to investigate the body of the goddess. He found that there were two areas where energy fluctuations were clearly different. One on the woman's waist and the other on her neck.
These were the two areas that Lin Ming was looking for. At the woman's waist, he first took out a jade pendant.
This jade pendant was a deep blue color and was cold to the touch. There was an ancient mystical design carved in the middle, looking like some sort of bird-shaped totem.
Whatever this is, it can't possibly be some kind of magical treasure. Despite emitting an extremely pure energy, it clearly did not possess any striking power. It looks more like a memento.
"Senior .. are you guilty?"
Lin Ming's guess was that after death, his will had not disappeared after these tens of thousands of years. Now, he was trying to pass on some messages to her. Was he persecuted? Does he have a grudge? Or maybe this is really an irreconcilable hatred?
After all this time had passed, were his enemies, or those who had wronged him, still in this world?
Lin Ming's mind was filled with questions.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior, whether you have any grievances or grudges, this junior will take this item. When junior surges into the realm of Gods in the future, maybe I might have a slim chance to help senior solve this mystery and complete this cycle of hatred. ”
Although Lin Ming had no idea who this goddess was or what she had done, he still obtained a number of lucky chances from her tomb. In essence, this could be considered a kindness that had been bestowed upon him. In this situation, if he could help him with his full strength and perhaps fulfill his last wish, then it would complete the karmic cycle between them.
However, there was always something that Lin Ming did not understand. Whether it was the woman in this tomb, or the abnormal existence within the Eternal Demon Abyss, like a huge ancient ferocious beast thousands of miles long, these were all beings that were supposed to be part of the Realm of the Gods.
Why are they here in the Holy Demon Continent?
According to Demonshine, the Holy Demon Continent and the Sky Spill Continent shared the same planet together. As for the three thousand boundless worlds, it was three thousand multiplied by each other, for a total of one billion!
A billion worlds! And the Holy Demon Continent and the Sky Spill Continent combined only one. In fact, this planet could be called meaningless, a negligible drop in an endless ocean!
Actually, what is the Eternal Demon Abyss? How was it made? How many tens of thousands of years have you been here? Where did those evil spirits and unimaginably powerful existences come from? And, what are the 12 Skysplit Towers? Who built it? Why would there be an Emperor Path?
Lin Ming's mind was filled with all these unanswerable questions.
The 12 Skysplit Towers had been around for countless years, enduring through the endless winds and rain of time. With so many intricate ancient arrays, an existence capable of constructing 12 Skysplit Towers was truly as level as the woman in this tomb!
Such a character, even if placed with the Realm of the Gods. Will remain the supreme level ruler of the Holy Land! Just why did they come to the Sacred Demon Continent?
Lin Ming really could not think of any of this He shook his head and started tracing the woman's neck. Previously, he had discovered that the energy here was also different. The moment he touched something cold, Lin Ming was just about to pull it, when at this moment he suddenly retracted his hand as if he had been bitten by a viper!
"This ... how is this possible !?" Lin Ming's skin paled.
As Duanmu Qun and the others saw Lin Ming's fierce reaction, they were also wary of "Brother Lin, is something wrong?"
Lin Ming's face was filled with shock and uncertainty. With hesitation, he stretched out his hand again and traced the woman's neck once more. This time, his hand specifically moved closer to the woman's left chest. Touching there, he could feel soft and smooth skin. Lin Ming was able to confirm that what he was feeling was not an illusion.
This woman ... has a heartbeat!
Previously, he had investigated it and clearly did not feel the slightest fluctuation of life. So, how could there be a heartbeat?
If there was a heartbeat, why didn't he detect it?
Lin Ming found this impossible to imagine. He hesitated for a long time, and then quietly said, "Senior, I'm sorry for offending you …"
Lin Ming took out a wisp of his perception and investigated the woman's left chest. In fact, the perception of a martial artist was everywhere. Naturally, penetrating the clothes was a simple act. But using her perception to pass through the clothes of this goddess was truly a rude and disrespectful gesture. But to confirm a few things, Lin Ming did not have a better method. He could only make sure that his mind was as clear as a mirror and that he really had no thoughts of desecrating or blaspheming him in any way, shape, or form.
Passing his perception into the left chest of the goddess, Lin Ming felt his mind tremble. Then, he instantly disappeared from the real world and came to a completely different world of will!
This is a vast starry sky!
"A will the world be comparable to the endless starry sky?" Lin Ming panicked.
At this moment, he heard a series of shattering sounds, as if a crystal glass was being broken. Looking up, he could see space breaking apart, rapidly exploding in front of him at an ever-growing speed!
Then, a vast and boundless ocean of energy and life gushed out!
Bang out!
Lin Ming was sent flying far away. In front of such terrifying energy, he was no different from a leaf in a storm, unable to resist at all!
If this energy even had the slightest killing intent towards Lin Ming, then he would instantly be crushed into a bloody mist!
"A very powerful energy, what is this !?"
Lin Ming finally stabilized himself with great difficulty and wiped the blood that came out from the corner of his mouth. He looked up to see that in the endless starry sky, in the area where space had broken out, there was actually a huge red heart, beating fast!
The peng! The peng! The peng! The peng!
With each heartbeat, the void vibrates. With each beat, Lin Ming could feel all of his body's blood vitality being drawn, all of the blood vessels within him wanting to burst out and rush out of it!
"This ... this is …!" Lin Ming's eyes became extremely wide as he stared at the heartbeat in the starry sky. This bright and lively deep red heart was as if it was carved from pure blood crystals. After passing through several tens of thousands of years, the life force within it had never been dimmed by a single touch!
This bright red heavenly light emitted from the heart, was accompanied by vast and endless life energy. This heart will probably keep beating forever for another 100,000 years!
This was the heart of a true Emperor! Moreover, an Emperor from the Realm of the Gods! This master of heart must be a top-tier powerhouse, looking down on every other existence!
Is this the heart of the goddess?
This thought instantly cut off Lin Ming's mind before he rejected it …
It's not that .
On the body of the goddess, Lin Ming had sensed a calm aura, unconcerned with all the problems of the world, as deep as the boundless sea. Before him, everyone's hearts would be filled with admiration, no one would dare to blaspheme him.
And from this heart ... of this heart, Lin Ming could feel an extremely domineering aura, an existence unmatched by all living within this universe!
The ruler of this heart, when alive, must have shaken the foundations of the Realm of the Gods, an unrivalled Emperor who looked on with disdain for all creation!
These are two very different atmospheres. This proved that this heart did not belong to this goddess .. however, what puzzled Lin Ming was that when he touched the goddess' chest, he clearly felt a heartbeat …
If he is not wrong, then this heart is inside the goddess. Thus, Lin Ming could feel it beating within him. But, since the goddess had died, she could not feel the fluctuations of life from her!
A goddess who had died had the heart of a Great Emperor sealed within her that had been beating for tens of thousands of years!
The final analysis of these facts left Lin Ming horrified!
What kind of Great Emperor is this !? He had drawn his heart, yet it had still been beating for tens of thousands of years!?!?
Such a great emperor ..who had killed him, and who had sealed his heart inside the body of this goddess?
