Chapter 972: The Four Giants
The Corpse Demon looked at Ye Xuan deeply but said nothing more.
However, it didn't take Ye Xuan's words to heart.
Although the ten great hazardous passes in the Dao Chu Ancient Land are terrifying, throughout the ages, quite a few have managed to reach Crow Grave.
There naturally are those who have seen it.
This is not something unexpected.
Since it came here, it wouldn't worry about this. What it considered was to leave all the Ancient Void Coins and other treasures in Ye Xuan's hands behind!
This is the unwritten rule of Crow Grave.
Of course, if the host of Crow Grave feels that a fated person has arrived, they might leave behind unparalleled skills.
That's the opportunity.
In Crow Grave, danger often outweighs the opportunity.
Compared to the Heavenly Bone Forbidden Land where opportunities and risks coexist, the Lantern Sea where there are no opportunities, and the relatively less dangerous Empty Ancient City, Crow Grave is in a class of its own.
"Senior, should we really not run..."
At this moment, Little Array Emperor felt a bit timid, even though standing next to Qian Kun Ancestor, he still couldn't help but use voice transmission to communicate.
Qian Kun Ancestor couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Why is this little fool so cowardly?"
Little Array Emperor became anxious: "It's not being cowardly; it's purely because the opponent is too strong, completely out of our league. If we don't run, I feel we'll be crushed to death!"
Qian Kun Ancestor shook his head and said: "That's being cowardly."
Little Array Emperor was left speechless.
Qian Kun Ancestor burst out laughing.
Yao Yueqing watched the two still bickering, feeling speechless yet slightly relieved from the tense atmosphere.
Boom!
However, at this moment, a terrifying shadow from both the north and south descended, obscuring the sky.
The two auras attacked, making one's scalp tingle.
Yao Yueqing, who had just relaxed, suddenly felt her heart leap into her throat.
Without needing anyone to remind her, she could feel that those called the East Emperor and Hei Shui had arrived!
Qian Kun Ancestor and Little Array Emperor no longer quarreled, their expressions becoming serious.
The Corpse Demon, who had been waiting, felt the aura of the East Emperor and Hei Shui and a faint smile emerged in its dark red eyes.
Looking at Emperor Mo, there was even a mocking glint within.
Boom!
Boom!
Two loud explosions rang out simultaneously.
They fell on the opposite hills, forming a triangle with the Corpse Demon, encircling Emperor Mo, Ye Xuan, and the others at the center.
At this moment, Crow Grave on all sides underwent abnormal changes, migrating frantically as if fearing being hit.
Some crows came to life, with frightened expressions in their eyes, whispering to each other: "What's happening today? Emperor Mo, Corpse Demon, East Emperor, and Hei Shui, all four giants have appeared!"
"It must be related to that group. We'd better withdraw further to avoid being harmed..."
While whispering, the Crow Graves did not remain idle and all retreated to the furthest distance.
That scene appeared extremely eerie.
Looking down from the sky, the Crow Graves seemed like ants.
However, neither Emperor Mo nor Ye Xuan at the scene cared about them.
On the northern hill stood a massive crow as black as ink, with the most bizarre eyes, startlingly black and white like those of a human.
This was — Hei Shui.
And on the southern hill stood another enormous black crow, its golden-red eyes radiating a terrifying heat, making one's scalp tingles.
This was — the East Emperor.
"Emperor Mo, what you did wasn't right, very wrong!" Hei Shui looked at Emperor Mo calmly and spoke, slowly.
The East Emperor also looked coldly at Emperor Mo, saying indifferently, "I just want my share."
"And what share is yours?" Emperor Mo asked in return.
The Corpse Demon laughed and asked back, "Emperor Mo, not even you, let alone those old crow graves, can cover the sky with one hand. Now that Hei Shui and the East Emperor are here, let's settle this properly."
Emperor Mo slightly squinted, instinctively glancing at Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan had his hands in his pockets, his expression calm, speaking leisurely, "Which one of you three wants to have your grave dug?"
The Corpse Demon scoffed: "Such a young age but quite a big mouth. With your level of cultivation, who do you think you can unearth? If not for your Ancient Void Coins, do you think we'd be here?"
Hei Shui and the East Emperor didn't even glance at Ye Xuan, their eyes always fixed on Emperor Mo.
"What are they talking about?"
Beside the Qiankun Ancestor, the young Array Emperor spoke with a peculiar expression.
The four crows and Ye Xuan were speaking in an extremely ancient language, which the young Array Emperor couldn't understand at all.
"How would I know?" the Qiankun Ancestor rolled his eyes at the young Array Emperor.
"Aren't you supposed to know everything?" the young Array Emperor mocked.
The Qiankun Ancestor's eyes flickered as he said, "The guy to the north wants to eat your flesh, the one to the south wants to peck your soul, and the one to the east wants to swallow your bones."
The young Array Emperor's face turned pale, but seeing the change in Qiankun Ancestor's expression, he realized that the guy was definitely messing with him.
Somewhat annoyed, the young Array Emperor was about to seek trouble with the Qiankun Ancestor.
However, at that moment, the young Array Emperor shut his mouth, feeling a bit tense.
Because Ye Xuan said something that infuriated Hei Shui, the East Emperor, and the Corpse Demon, their auras burst forth as if sweeping across the Eight Desolates.
The Vajra Emperor Armor on the young Array Emperor reacted massively.
Yao Yueqing's Gu Tu Dual Swords did the same.
"Emperor Mo, what are you really thinking?" the East Emperor looked at Emperor Mo, his eyes filled with confusion.
Emperor Mo stood beside Ye Xuan, not speaking, letting his actions say everything.
He would unconditionally stand on Ye Xuan's side!
"With a disgrace like you at Crow Grave, it's truly a shame!" Hei Shui snorted coldly, extremely dissatisfied with Emperor Mo's response.
"You two, take action." The Corpse Demon was more direct.
This time, he called upon Hei Shui and the East Emperor, aiming to suppress Emperor Mo!
Among the four of them, his raw strength was the weakest, whereas Emperor Mo could contend with the strongest East Emperor, and overpower Hei Shui and him.
But this time, with Hei Shui and the East Emperor present, he had absolute confidence to make Emperor Mo bow down.
"Emperor Mo, don't blame me!" Hei Shui snorted coldly as he took the lead.
Boom!
As Hei Shui took action, enormous waves surged around, like a black ocean sweeping across everything!
The northern Sky Dome of the entire Crow Grave seemed to be shrouded by this black ocean!
The terrifying black ocean suppressed, aiming to crush everything beneath it!
"It's over!"
That scene left the young Array Emperor in utter despair.
How the hell are we supposed to fight this?
"Ye Xuan…" Yao Yueqing kept her eyes fixed on Ye Xuan, knowing full well that he was the only one who could lead them out of this peril!
Yet Ye Xuan remained calm, which somewhat reassured Yao Yueqing.
However, given that the opposition had already struck with such terrifying momentum, it was truly hard for him to feel at ease.
Boom!
But at that moment, Emperor Mo made his move, his wings fluttered, and a visible black Gang Wind swept across.
The black Gang Wind charged with the momentum of scouring the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, contending with the black ocean of Hei Shui.
"Emperor Mo, don't think you can cover the sky with one hand!"
"This Crow Grave isn't governed by you alone!"
The Corpse Demon roared madly, accompanied by an outburst of overwhelming Corpse Energy, with black, dense crowds of crows appearing from all directions.
These crows emitted eerie caws, clouding people's minds.
Moreover, the crows bore the same terrifying Corpse Energy, ready to dismember anyone!
These crows were pervasive, scattering everywhere, with a small half flying towards Ye Xuan, the Qiankun Ancestor, the young Array Emperor, and Yao Yueqing!
"Zhen!"
Emperor Mo flew up, spinning directly in mid-air, seemingly leaving a stroke of ink in the Void, with the world appearing in merely black and white.
And at that moment, black was sovereign over everything!
Emperor Mo was that blot of black!
"You've actually grown stronger?!"
Emperor Mo's move made the Corpse Demon shudder.
"East Emperor!" Hei Shui also shouted with a deep voice.
The East Emperor, who had been watching the spectacle, squinted slightly, sending two visible pillars of fiery golden light from his scarlet-golden eyes.
Wherever the light passed, the Void was instantly pierced, and the surroundings twisted beyond recognition.
"Emperor Mo, has your strength nearly surpassed mine…?"
The East Emperor spoke coldly.
