Eternal Bonds: A Journey with the Fated Immortal

Chapter 108

This was an exceptionally perfect woman.

Dressed in white, as pure as snow, her black hair danced lightly, and her eyes shimmered with a dreamlike quality.

Her features were delicate, nearly flawless, and her beauty was beyond belief. Her curvaceous jade-like body was surrounded by a hazy mist.

She resembled a celestial maiden walking on waves.

Her eyes sparkled brilliantly, as if they could see through all things in the world.

At this moment, she was showing a look of joy, her eyes misting over as if she were about to cry.

“I can feel it. That is the aura of the Great Emperor ancestor, with his bloodline power… Perhaps this place is where the Emperor’s tomb is located!”

The perfect woman said in a trembling voice.

She was incredibly excited.

Beside her, a group of people showed expressions of astonishment. The attendants following the woman had never seen their princess so emotional.

“The tomb of that great one has truly been found!”

Next to the perfect woman, an elder spoke with a trembling voice. His tone was urgent and excited, and his eyes shining with an incredibly terrifying light.

The elder was very powerful. He was dressed in a golden robe with long golden hair. He resembled a deity, and his aura seemed capable of tearing the heavens and earth apart.

This person was clearly a Great Saint.

“The Azure Emperor’s tomb… is it finally about to be found? How many years has it been!”

“If it weren’t for that great one’s mysterious disappearance back then, the imperial court wouldn’t have declined so quickly and been destroyed!”

“Now that the Azure Emperor’s tomb has been found, if we can locate the Azure Emperor’s weapon, our Azure Emperor lineage will have the means to rise again!”

One by one, the powerful figures spoke excitedly. They were all attendants following the perfect woman, and each one of them were very strong. At least a Saint King in their own right.

Among them were two Great Saints. They were dressed in green robes, one male and one female, and both were ancient figures.

“Ruyu, we should act quickly. Once the Azure Emperor’s tomb is opened, I fear it will attract powerful figures to this place!”

A golden-haired youth spoke from the side. He was very handsome, dressed in golden robes, his eyes sparkling with a terrifying aura, resembling a fearsome Golden-Winged Roc.

Or rather, his true form was that of a Golden-Winged Roc, with pure bloodline far surpassing that of the offspring of the Azure Sky King.

“Let’s have Uncle lead us to the Azure Emperor’s tomb. We should obtain the imperial weapon as soon as possible and then withdraw!”

At this moment, the golden-haired youth’s gaze turned towards the perfect woman, filled with a fervent light, his tone carrying concern.

“…Holy Son Jin Yu, there’s no need to worry so much. This is merely a continent, with few powerful figures. Moreover, an imperial weapon is such a formidable existence that no one outside the Azure Emperor’s lineage can take it!”

The perfect woman’s brows furrowed slightly, then relaxed, as if she did not appreciate the youth’s closeness. Her tone remained cold and indifferent.

“Hehe, I was just saying. Even if there are rivals vying for it, Uncle and the others can easily handle them!”

The golden-haired youth smiled.

His name was Jin Yu, the Holy Son of the Golden Emperor lineage, a peerless prodigy who commanded respect and authority.

“Your Highness, shall we depart?”

A Great Saint dressed in green robes addressed the perfect woman.

“Alright!”

The perfect woman nodded, then took a step forward, leading her entourage towards the location of the Emperor’s tomb’s aura.

“Holy Son, it seems that Yan Ruyu does not favor us!” The golden-haired elder, who had been observing, frowned and transmitted his thoughts to Holy Son Jin Yu.

“Hmph. She is merely a descendant of the fallen Azure Emperor, along with two ancient Great Saints. If it weren’t for some old monsters in the Kunlun Sacred Hall still reminiscing about the Azure Emperor, why would I be so courteous to her? I would have taken her by force long ago!”

Upon hearing this, Jin Yu’s expression immediately darkened. He looked towards the direction where the perfect woman and her entourage had disappeared, his eyes flashing with cold light.

“Holy Son, what should we do?”

The golden-haired elder spoke in a low voice. Although he was a Great Saint, he still had to defer to Jin Yu.

There were not just him but also two others, all of whom were Great Saints, making a total of three.

“According to my father, Yan Ruyu’s imperial blood is very pure, comparable to that of the third generation. Coupled with her sacred physique, possessing her would be immensely beneficial to me!”

Jin Yu transmitted his thoughts, his eyes filled with greed.

“Hmph. This wench is using me, but am I not also using her? My father taught me the Immortal Weapon Art, specifically for controlling supreme imperial weapons. Although it’s only a fragment, it’s more than enough to control the Azure Lotus Imperial Weapon.”

“At that time, a mere descendant of the Azure Emperor will be at my mercy!”

Jin Yu sneered coldly, his heart filled with greed and a strong desire to possess Yan Ruyu.

It wasn’t just because her bloodline would greatly benefit him, but also because of her beauty and status, which were nothing short of perfect.

This fueled his intense desire for conquest.

“Let’s go! First, we’ll explore the tomb. If there are any outsiders, we’ll slaughter them all!”

“After we’re done with the Emperor’s tomb, we’ll capture that wench and then swallow up one or two smaller nations to vent our anger!”

Jin Yu said, his eyes flashing with a hint of brutal killing intent. Being constantly ignored by Yan Ruyu had left him extremely displeased.

Since he couldn’t make a move on Yan Ruyu immediately, he decided to deal with some humans later.

He might as well devour a few human nations.

After all, there were no significant powerhouses on this continent, at most a few Saints. He would consume them all together when the time came.

“Let’s go!”

Soon, the group followed after them.

“Your Highness, that Holy Son seems to harbor ill intentions towards you!” A Great Saint in green robes transmitted his thoughts to the perfect woman, Yan Ruyu, his tone filled with concern.

“I know!”

Yan Ruyu responded calmly, her expression indifferent. “But for now, our lineage is still too weak. We need to rely on some established forces to secure our footing!”

She sighed softly, her eyes filled with a hint of sorrow.

Once upon a time, the Azure Emperor lineage was incredibly glorious as they reigned supreme for ages. They ruled over numerous vast heavenly realms and countless divine territories.

Their lineage possessed two supreme imperial weapons, with Quasi-Emperors as common as clouds, Great Saints as numerous as raindrops, and many supreme beings.

Unfortunately, with the disappearance and fall of the Azure Emperor ancestor, the clan’s imperial weapon also vanished. Successive upheavals and rebellions, coupled with the rise of two powerful demon emperor lineages, led to the joint destruction of the Azure Emperor’s Demonic Court.

Since then, the Azure Emperor lineage has declined.

To this day, only a few descendants remain, and she was the one with the purest bloodline among them.

“But it doesn’t matter. As long as we obtain the Azure Emperor ancestor’s legacy and the imperial weapon, the Azure Emperor lineage will have the means to rise again!”

The perfect woman’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

A supreme imperial weapon!

Once she mastered the imperial weapon, she would not fear facing even a Quasi-Emperor and would even have the ability to escape from a supreme being.

In this way, the Azure Emperor lineage would truly have the means to rise again, no longer needing to rely on others.

“We’ve arrived!”

Soon, Yan Ruyu arrived first, and Jin Yu and his group quickly sensed it as well. They looked at the enormous vortex that had appeared, from which a faint imperial might emanated, and each of them was filled with astonishment.

At first, they were not entirely certain, but as they drew closer and felt the emanating fluctuations, although extremely faint, there was no doubt.

That overwhelming presence towered above all paths and seemingly trampling everything made them feel suffocated and tremble uncontrollably. It was unmistakably imperial might.

This was the Azure Emperor’s tomb.

“Azure Emperor ancestor!”

Yan Ruyu’s expression was filled with excitement. The closer she got, the more intense the reaction within her body became. A sense of bloodline resonance was pulling her, almost bringing her to tears.

That was the Great Emperor ancestor!

Rumble rumble!

At this moment, a violent tremor emanated from within the vortex, as if a colossal entity was shaking inside, causing everyone to change their expressions.

“Not good! Someone went in ahead of us!”

A Great Saint in green robes exclaimed in alarm, and Yan Ruyu’s delicate face tightened as she urgently spoke.

“Hurry inside!”

Boom!

Without hesitation, the group rushed in one after another, tearing through the vast divine might that quickly descended.
