Despite the efforts of the tomb-guarding monster to struggle violently and resist continuously,
Under the joint attack of the six Heavenly Venerables, it had no chance to fight back at all.
In just a few minutes, the monster was re-sealed within the spiritual energy barrier.
".Roar"
At this moment, it was somewhat depressed.
It had finally escaped from the barrier of the Heavenly Venerable's tomb and thought that by dealing with these humans, it could regain its freedom.
Who would have thought that among these humans, there would be six cultivators as powerful as itself, all Heavenly Venerables.
"Fellow cultivators, let's temporarily seal this beast here. After we exit this Heavenly Venerable's tomb, we can decide its fate. How about it?"
The Phantom Elder looked at the other five Heavenly Venerables and spoke slowly.
"Um, no problem."
All five nodded in agreement.
After all, the tomb-guarding monster was trapped in the spiritual energy barrier and would not escape, so naturally, they could focus on the Heavenly Venerable's tomb first.
The tomb-guarding monster was trapped.
Everyone's gaze fell upon the closed palace stone gate.
Dust accumulated heavily on the gate, indicating it had been sealed for a long time.
Vaguely, there were runes harbored within.
"Which of you will push the door open?" asked the elder with sword-like eyebrows, looking down at some of the Heavenly Venerable forces in a calm tone.
"This…"
Hearing this sentence, the forces below all changed their expressions.
The stone gate was tightly sealed, and it seemed to have runes emerging.
One could tell at a glance that there must be some kind of mechanism on the gate.
Asking them to open the gate was like sending them to their death.
"What? You don't want to? In that case, I'll have to pick someone myself."
The elder with sword-like eyebrows narrowed his eyes slightly, and his gaze fell upon a group of people from a force with the highest rank being only at the Saint Emperor realm.
"You, go open the gate."
The elder set his commanding gaze on the Saint Emperor realm expert.
"This…" The expression of the Saint Emperor realm expert changed; he looked somewhat uncomfortable.
He forced a smile at the elder with sword-like eyebrows, his tone somewhat helpless, "Sword-brow elder, I…"
"I remember you should be from the Ancient Fist Sect, right?" Before the Saint Emperor realm expert could finish speaking, the elder interrupted, narrowing his eyes significantly.
"You…"
The Saint Emperor realm expert was shocked; he didn't expect the elder to know his backing!
He couldn't refuse now!
Following the way the Sword Gate handled things, if he offended them, he would surely be retaliated against!
Their opponent was an Imperial realm force, while their Ancient Fist Sect was just a small Heavenly Venerable force.
"Sigh"
The Saint Emperor realm expert sighed and then slowly nodded, "Since the Sword-brow Elder wants it, I am naturally willing to oblige."
Having said that, the Saint Emperor realm expert set out, walking towards the palace of the Heavenly Venerable's tomb under everyone's watchful eyes.
Seeing that he obediently complied, the elder with sword-like eyebrows showed a hint of a smile on his face.
On the Black Dragon mount, Ning Tian observed this scene and formed a new understanding of the righteous path.
Those people from the righteous alliance undoubtedly stood at the peak of morality but engaged in the most hypocritical acts.
Under countless watchful eyes.
The Saint Emperor realm expert step by step approached the palace, in front of the heavy closed stone gate.
He took a deep breath, feeling somewhat nervous.
"What are you hesitating for? Hurry up and push the stone gate," the pushing voice of the elder with sword-like eyebrows came from behind him.
At those words, the Saint Emperor realm expert clenched his teeth and no longer hesitated.
He took a step forward.
His hands braced against the stone gate, he exerted his full strength.
The stone gate moved slightly, but not by much.
"Strange, why is this stone gate so heavy?" The Saint Emperor realm expert frowned, then clenched his teeth and pushed again.
The gate had triggered his competitive spirit.
With full force, the Saint Emperor realm expert's face turned red, his veins burst out, and his spiritual energy surged fully. Only then did the stone gate begin to show some signs of movement.
A peak Saint Emperor realm cultivator, using all his strength, could barely move the gate.
One can imagine just how heavy this stone gate was.
"Boom."
As he continued to exert force, a small gap finally appeared in the middle of the closed gate.
A faint cold breeze blew out from between the gaps.
"There's a gap!"
The Saint Emperor realm expert's heart was overjoyed, and he pushed even harder.
Now that there was a slight gap, how far could it be until the gate was fully opened?
He pushed again with force.
Boom.
Finally, the gap in the middle of the stone gate opened to about two centimeters.
Seeing this, everyone's eyes brightened, it seemed that the stone gate would soon be open!
"That's great!"
A glint of joy flashed in the eyes of the Saint Emperor realm expert. However, suddenly, a chilling wind from within the palace blew out through the gap in the door.
He shivered involuntarily.
Then, he seemed to hear a flute sound in his ears.
Whoosh!
In an instant, before the Saint Emperor realm expert could react, his flesh and blood melted at a visible pace. Even his bones did the same!
"Ah!"
After a horrific scream, all that was left in front of the stone gate was a lump of indistinct flesh and blood.
Boom!
The stone gate, once again, closed tightly.
". ."
This scene happened so suddenly that even the six Heavenly Venerable experts did not have time to react.
In just an instant.
The peak Saint Emperor realm expert was reduced to a lump of flesh and blood?
What was that all about?
"Gulp."
Eyewitnessing this scene, many experts swallowed hard, and a light of survival after a disaster flashed in their eyes.
Thankfully the elder with sword-like eyebrows didn't call on them.
Otherwise, that lump of flesh and blood on the ground would have been their fate!
"What's going on here?" The Phantom Elder frowned.
"I don't know, it seems as if there was some kind of sound that started it all." The Jin Bao Daoist also looked solemn.
"Sound?"
"What sound?"
The rest of the Heavenly Venerables were puzzled.
"It was flute music."
At this time.
A faint voice arose, and everyone looked up towards Ning Tian, who sat atop the Black Dragon.
"Flute music?"
Hearing the words of the legendary ancestor of the Demon Sect, the surrounding crowd was stunned.
"Young man, even we great Heavenly Venerables didn't hear clearly whether it was flute music, how can you be so sure it was flute music?"
Tian Feng sneered.
"Don't forget, although you're a legendary ancestor, you're still just a Land King realm cultivator!"
Hearing this, a group of popcorn-eating forces below thought it made some sense.
"That's right, although the legendary ancestor has many legendary deeds, after all, he's only a Land King realm cultivator."
"How could an ancestor notice something that not even Heavenly Venerable strong ones could detect?"
Listening to the crowd, Ning Tian casually glanced at Tian Feng, "What does it matter if your strength is greater than mine? If you don't understand the Way of Music, you're just being presumptuous here."
"You!"
"Hehe!"
"I might not understand the Way of Music, but since when do you?"
Tian Feng clenched his teeth in irritation.
"It is indeed flute music."
At that moment, the Saintess of Yaochi spoke softly with her red lips slightly parted.
