Tianwei Chapter 271: The Emperor's Corpse (2)
Although it concerns the life and death of the old Taoist, I am still embarrassed to speak up immediately. Wouldn't it seem like I am asking for an advantage?
So I changed the subject and asked: Why did you pull me away so hastily just now? I saw that elder surnamed Ma didn't seem to be very kind to me...
Who made Yuwenying die in the hands of your Grandpa Shi? However, I never thought that the surname Liao was so hidden, and that the little girl was so powerful and had such an ancient origin. Wei Qingcang said with some emotion: It is true that the sea cannot be measured, and people cannot be judged by appearance.
I didn't say anything because I didn't know what to do next.
Fortunately, Wei Qingcang is a generous person, so with him around, there is no need to worry about the audience feeling awkward.
In fact, Yuwen Ying had colluded with the Secret Corpse Vein long ago, but I suppressed him forcefully. Wei Qingcang sighed and said: The Secret Corpse Vein has been forbearing for hundreds of years. Once its ambition and strength expand, it will be difficult to control. If I wasn't afraid that they would find a reason to start an internal conflict, I would have killed Yuwen Ying long ago... It was too easy for him to die!
Wei Qingcang clenched his fists tightly, and there was a crisp sound between his fingers.
If I die, I die. It's a life for a life, I said.
Wei Qingcang shook his head slightly and said: Do you know why I was in a hurry to bring you here just now?
I don't know... uh, is it to inform... to inform him of the news so that he can receive the zombie pulse in advance?
That's right. Wei Qingcang nodded and said: "The Secret Corpse Vein is indeed very powerful. Even if I bring the Purple Talisman Heavenly Corpse to the Wei family, it will be difficult to compete with them. Their hundreds of years of accumulated strength is beyond everyone's imagination."
Then how do you...
Corpses are not afraid of death, but people are. Wei Qingcang pointed at himself and said confidently: None of them can resist me. Whoever I want to kill will definitely not live until the next day.
Then you haven't...
Kill them one by one? Wei Qingcang shook his head and said: They are not stupid. Once someone dies, we will be besieged by the secret corpse vein immediately. Therefore, they are wary of each other and no one wants to act rashly. But if the walking corpse vein is taken over by them, our situation will be even more difficult.
I really have little interest in understanding the open and covert struggles between these forces. After thinking about it, I decided not to delay any further. Otherwise, once the Secret Corpse Vein and Wei Qingcang compete for the Walking Corpse Vein, he will be busy and will not have time to listen to me.
Actually, I came here this time to ask you for two things. I said.
Oh? Wei Qingcang nodded and said: Just ask, I won’t say anything.
I spoke directly, and strangely enough, as soon as these two words came out, I felt a lot more relaxed, and even the rest of the words came out smoothly: and there is also the mirror of sin.
Wei Qingcang was slightly startled. His reaction was somewhat unexpected. He neither agreed nor refused, but asked: Can you tell me what it is used for?
Let the Taoist priest be resurrected, I replied.
Wei Qingcang had a look of surprise on his face, and asked: With these two things, can people be resurrected?
No... I shook my head and told him about my experience entering the underworld.
When Wei Qingcang heard someone pass the message to me, he frowned. After listening to me, he thought for a while, then looked up at me and said: These two things are not in my hands.
This answer was expected and reasonable. Before coming here, I had guessed that I would get this answer. But when I heard Wei Qingcang say it himself, I couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Although I brought these things out from the underworld, they are used by the entire Heavenly Corpse Vein, Wei Qingcang said.
Although I was disappointed, I still asked curiously after hearing this: Is the entire Heavenly Corpse Vein using it? What are you using it for? Are things from the underworld also useful to living people?
Of course it’s useless to living people, Wei Qingcang replied.
I groaned, but he continued: But it is very useful for dead people.
Do you know what the Shanbo and Niejingtai are used for? Wei Qingcang suddenly asked.
I thought about it for a while, and then said: The Book of Goodness records the good deeds done in one's life, and the Mirror of Evil can reflect the sins of a person, so it is used to distinguish the good and evil of souls. However, this thing has nothing to do with your Heavenly Corpse Vein. You are refining corpses, how can you link it with souls?
There is nothing in this world that is absolutely unrelated, but there are some things that are not understood by ordinary people. Wei Qingcang said: In fact, these two things are the key that the entire Tianshi vein has been planning for a long time. We have always believed that as long as we have them, the day when the Tianshi vein rises in the world will soon come.
Oh? I was a little surprised.
Do you know what an emperor's corpse is? Wei Qingcang asked again.
This question is a bit difficult for me. Although I remember that the old Taoist seemed to have mentioned it before, I really can't remember what he said. I only know that the emperor's corpse is related to the imperial mausoleum.
The emperor's corpse needs to be nourished by the dragon energy of the imperial mausoleum to take shape. And the corpse must have a dragon image when it was alive. Even if it is not an emperor, it must at least be a royal relative. However, most of the places where emperors and royal relatives are buried are locked by Feng Shui masters, making it difficult to form a corpse. Throughout history, emperors' corpses are rare.
Is there any connection between this and what you said before? I asked.
Of course there is. Wei Qingcang continued: The Good and Evil Mirror can be used to see the good and evil deeds of a person. But few people know that there is a secret hidden in these two things.
What secret? I asked curiously.
Wei Qingcang looked at me for about two seconds, then whispered: These two things actually record all of a person's activities in the world. The so-called distinction between good and evil is actually to extract a certain fragment from these records and then integrate them using methods we don't understand.
The more I listened to Wei Qingcang's words, the more confused I became.
You mean, through these two things, you can see everything about the soul before it died? But what does this have to do with the emperor's corpse?
That's why we have been planning for so long, but no one has stopped us. Wei Qingcang was a little complacent, and said: Although this is the big secret of the Heavenly Corpse Vein, as the descendant of the Eight Ropes and my friend, it's okay for me to tell you. But remember not to spread it to others.
I hummed, and heard Wei Qingcang lower his voice and say: Shanbo and Niejingtai can be changed.
Huh? I was so surprised that I even cried out in surprise.
Wei Qingcang lowered his voice and said: We have a special method to change the above records.
Although I don't know what this special method is, but being able to change Shanbo and Niejingtai, Tianshimai is really amazing... You know, these two things are divine objects in the underworld. This is similar to a small hacker sneaking into the Pentagon's system and changing all the password data.
It’s amazing, but there’s something even more amazing coming up.
Wei Qingcang added: Although the Heavenly Corpse Vein does not use souls as its main means, how many people who refine corpses do not know about these? So we left behind many souls, and found their records in the Good Book and the Mirror of Evil, and changed them all. Maybe these souls were hawkers, dancers, or actors in their lifetime, but after our corrections...
A light bulb went off in my head, and I suddenly realized what Wei Qingcang meant by what he had said before.
You have changed all the records of these souls before their death into those of emperors and royal relatives... I subconsciously lowered my voice to the lowest level because it was so shocking that I didn't even dare to say a word.
That's right. Wei Qingcang nodded.
All of them?
All of them!
Wouldn't this cause a stir...
Maybe, maybe not. Wei Qingcang shook his head and said: But existence is reasonable. I remember many people in the secular world said this. Since Shanbo and Niejingtai can be changed, then we have made corrections, which is reasonable. Fish can be eaten, so we can eat them. Trees can be cut down, so we can cut them down.
But fish bones can get stuck in your throat, and poisonous snakes may fall from trees...
Then I will dissolve the fish bones and eat the poisonous snake! Wei Qingcang replied.
You are crazy...you actually want to create a large number of emperor corpses.
No. Our goal is not to create a large number of emperor corpses. Although the emperor corpse is powerful, my Wei family bronze armor corpse is no worse than it. Wei Qingcang shook his head, and then said in a very strange tone, as if with a little yearning and a little fanaticism: We want to create emperor corpses. Seventy-seven forty-nine emperor corpses!
The Emperor's corpse... I stared at him blankly, and suddenly a flood of memories flooded my mind.
When the three veins were besieged, the walking corpse vein had used all the walking corpses, including the gold-winged corpses and the white-winged corpses, to set up a sky-reaching corpse formation. This corpse formation beat the forces including the Demon Zen vein, the Ling family, and Xingluoqi to a pulp. Most of Xingluoqi was annihilated in that battle. The power of the sky-reaching corpse formation was limited by the level of the walking corpses that set up the formation, so only one type of sky-punishment arrow was used. Even so, hundreds of enemies were unstoppable.
At that time, Yuwen Ying said: If forty-nine emperors' corpses were used to form a formation, all barriers between heaven and earth could be broken, opening the ladder to heaven.
In ancient times, there was a ladder that led directly to heaven . Immortals were afraid and cut off the road to heaven. The oldest record of the Heavenly Corpse Vein mentioned that if forty-nine emperors with golden feathers could be gathered together, they would be able to reach heaven and restart the road to heaven!
Now, the three words "Emperor's Corpse" were mentioned by Wei Qingcang again.
I couldn't help but realize that the huge pillar that reached the sky like the one in mythology and legends seemed to appear before my eyes again.
Wei Qingcang, no, it should be said that the idea of the Heavenly Corpse Vein was too crazy. Their brains seemed to be completely burnt, and they actually came up with this method, using alternative means to complete the feat that the Heavenly Corpse Vein had not been able to accomplish for thousands of years.
The forty-nine emperor corpses are forty-nine golden-winged corpses.
A golden-feathered corpse can kill the old Taoist priest.
The power of the Golden Wing Corpses increased with their number. The more there were, the stronger the corpse formation they could form.
Forty-nine golden-winged corpses can definitely easily kill forty-nine top-level bronze-armored corpses.
This is a force that cannot be stopped by anyone in the world. I can't do it, the Taoist priest can't do it, my mother can't do it, and even Grandpa Shi can't do it.
The corpse formation that can open the way to heaven is beyond people's imagination. Such power is probably much stronger than immortals.
Looking at Wei Qingcang, my heart grew heavier.
It seems there is no hope of taking away the Shanbo and Niejingtai.
