C439 Entering Imperial Pass
C439 Entering Imperial Pass
Shen Muqing's expression was strange as she asked, "What happened?"
Lin Xuan shook his head and said with lingering fear, "I don't know, but Fallen Demon Ridge is definitely not as simple as we thought. Perhaps there is an unknown mysterious existence that is still alive and not dead."
"I am now more and more curious about what kind of person was the devil described in the records tens of thousands of years ago?"
"He stirred up the winds and clouds while he was alive, causing several saints to set up a trap. After his death, the place where his corpse was located turned into a dangerous place..."
At this time, Shen Muqing seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes flickered and her red lips parted. She said with a long meaning, "That devil... is not a human."
Lin Xuan shook his head. He said as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. "Forget it, who cares if he's a human or a foreign race. Now that the Netherworld Grass is in my hands, I can finally enter Imperial Pass!"
"Let's go, we'll return to Star Moon City to recuperate first!"
...
...
Inside Shen Muqing's spiritual altar, the woman sitting inside the brown little Stone was similarly shocked. She continuously muttered in her heart, "Could it be that the devil isn't dead yet?"
"No... Impossible... The six saints set up a trap to kill him. It is impossible to let him live..."
"But what's with that heartbeat, it actually makes me feel a strong sense of oppression..."
This trip to the Fallen Demon Ridge had far exceeded her control. There were a few times when she faced the unfathomable blood lake, it made her feel as if her back was pressing against it.
Behind the shadow curtain, there seemed to be a pair of eyes firmly staring at her...
Lin Xuan and Shen Muqing did not know about all of this.
They returned to Star Moon City, and after a short period of reorganization, they didn't choose to stay any longer, instead rushing straight for Imperial Pass!
The two of them were already half a month late. This was already considered a long time on the Imperial Road. One Domain Gate after another, Shen Qingfeng and the others had long walked to an unknown place.
The Imperial Pass was still as majestic and majestic as before, as if it had existed since the ancient times. It was as if it was the same as the heaven and earth, and there was an ancient feeling flowing within it.
Right now, the figures in front of Imperial Pass were sparse, only a few figures hurried over.
Imperial Pass would close soon, unknown when it would reopen, enter inside. This meant that there was no way back.
Two groups of armored soldiers holding long spears stood in front of Imperial Pass. Each of them was extremely powerful, already at the peak of Spirit Master cultivation.
At the peak of Spirit Master, in this place, they could only be the most ordinary armored soldiers. If they went all out in the empire, they would definitely be honored guests of all great powers.
The cruelty of the Sovereign Road seemed to have revealed some clues from the beginning.
"Stop right there. Without the token, you are not allowed to enter!"
Lin Xuan did not have anything on him and was stopped by a group of soldiers. The leader of the soldiers looked rough and tall. He shouted at Lin Xuan, "Stop! If you do not have the token, you are not allowed to enter!
"If you don't have the pass token, even if you enter Imperial Pass, you still won't be able to step onto the emperor path. Youngster, don't make a mistake, just quickly return!"
When he heard this, Lin Xuan smiled faintly. He said, "I hope the commander can report, say that I already found the Netherworld Grass according to the requirements!"
At this moment, the commander was a little surprised, as if he did not expect Lin Xuan to be so unattractive that he could actually pick the Netherworld Grass. It was too inconceivable.
However, he also understood that no one would dare to come here and fool them. Since Lin Xuan said that he had found the Netherworld Grass, it was most likely true.
"So that's how it is. No wonder you look like you have victory in your hands. Alright, just you wait!"
The Bin Changfa chuckled and commanded. He entered the Imperial Pass and used a voice transmission technique to summon the man in golden armor!
Not long afterwards, a streak of golden light rushed into the heavens, restraining its brilliance, appearing in front of Imperial Pass' city walls.
The golden-armored male quietly stood there, looking towards Lin Xuan, his voice extremely calm, saying simply: "Where is it?"
Lin Xuan didn't hesitate when he heard this. He took out the White Jade Heaven Earth Cauldron. Inside the Furnace, there was a dark red spiritual herb that was still swaying. Its leaves were crystal clear, and it looked very mystical.
"Give it to me!"
The man spoke very little. It was simple and crude!
Lin Xuan struck the Netherworld Grass out of the cauldron. The latter's large hand grabbed, and the Netherworld Grass was sucked away!
Following that, he threw out a black token that shone with a dark light in his palm. There were many mysterious patterns on it that were mixed together, flowing with an ancient charm.
Lin Xuan leapt up, grabbing the token in his hand. Then, the male in golden armor left without turning his head back. He didn't say anything.
As for Lin Xuan, he cut open his finger and let his blood drip onto the black token, branding it with his own imprint.
After that, the golden divine patterns on the black token in Lin Xuan's hand began to move like small snakes, revealing everything.
After a short while, it returned to its simple and unadorned appearance.
Then, Lin Xuan and Shen Muqing entered Imperial Pass unimpeded, no one stopping them.
After entering Imperial Pass, Lin Xuan discovered that this was actually a city, there were still people staying in the city.
There were also some who seemed to have always lived here, from youth to elder, everything was there.
"These people are the natives of Imperial Pass, most of them the descendants of soldiers. They have lived here for generations, and have always been guarding Imperial Pass."
Shen Muqing saw Lin Xuan's confused look, explaining.
"According to the ancient rules of Imperial Road, soldiers on Imperial Road are not allowed to leave their posts without permission. There are strict military laws, just like that golden-armored general we saw before. Even though his cultivation is formidable, he can't casually leave Imperial Pass, or else we won't need to search for the Netherworld Grass."
When he heard this, Lin Xuan shook his head, sighing with emotion. "If we can't leave forever, wouldn't that be a fate worse than death?"
"In this Starting Imperial Pass before us, some of the soldiers are descendants of cultivators who have violated the ancient rules of the Emperor Road. They were punished to come here, but there are also some who have nowhere to run, willing to become Imperial Pass' soldiers."
"This way, at the very least, we can guarantee that they can live, receive Imperial Pass' protection, no one will try to harm them again."
Shen Muqing said with a sigh.
In this world, there were indeed many helpless things. Lin Xuan nodded. This was only the choice of some people.
"These soldiers all married and had children in Imperial Pass. Some of their children also embarked on the Imperial Road, and some lived peacefully in Imperial Pass."
"When these soldiers die, if their children can meet the requirements and are willing to continue the legacy of their fathers, they will basically all pass."
"Of course, if they are unwilling, they will not force it."
"Moreover, Imperial Pass will protect their descendants for generations. If their descendants want to leave, they can do so as well."
Shen Muqing's words made Lin Xuan understand even more. He said with a faint smile, "So that's how it is. From the looks of it, the choice these soldiers made wasn't bad either."
The two of them calmly conversed with each other, following the main road in the city all the way to Imperial Pass' destination.
That was similarly a pass.
Only, that was the pass that led out of Imperial Pass, the true emperor path.
It was also where Domain Gate was located.
