Chapter 437

"Looks like you've already sensed something."

The Ghost Emperor revealed a joyful expression. In just a few short months, this brat went from being at a loss to having sensed something. Who knows, he might really be able to help him solve his problem soon!

"Senior, what is this aura?" Gu Chen asked after some thought.

"It's the Heavenly Dao Shackles."

The Ghost Emperor said sternly and explained the sequence of events.

"Back then, I thought I was extremely talented, and with the help of the Yellow Springs, I would definitely be able to break through the limits of the Celestial Being Realm and reach a higher realm.

"However, I underestimated the restrictions of this world on the Kunlun Continent. Not only was I unable to improve further, but I even triggered a severe Celestial Decay.

"Normally, when a normal person encounters the Celestial Decay, they would die very quickly. However, I borrowed the power of the Yellow Springs to become a half-human half-corpse existence, which allowed me to survive and have an almost endless lifespan.

"I originally thought that the Celestial Decay would disappear after becoming like this, but I didn't expect it to follow me like a shadow, never letting me go.

"These years, the Heavenly Dao Shackles on me have been getting heavier and heavier. Not to mention breaking through, if this continues, even if I'm already a half-human half-corpse existence, my soul will still be destroyed.

"In order to prolong my life and slow down the speed of decline, I can only stay in this Ghost Ruins and borrow the power of the Yellow Springs to suppress the Heavenly Dao Shackles."

The Ghost Emperor sighed. When the Celestial Realm cultivators present heard this, their expressions changed.

They had all heard that if a peak Celestial Being wanted to improve further, they would encounter the Celestial Decay, but they didn't expect it to be this ferocious.

Not only did it turn the Ghost Emperor into a half-human half-corpse, but it also forced him to stay in this Ghost Ruins all day, trembling in fear, not knowing when his soul would be destroyed.

The Heavenly Dao was truly inviolable!

"Then how does senior want me to help?"

Gu Chen had long guessed that the Ghost Emperor's request might be related to the Celestial Decay, but he didn't understand. What could he do? Could he resist the suppression of the Heavenly Dao?

"I want you to help me break the Heavenly Dao Shackles!"

The Ghost Emperor's shocking words caused everyone's expressions to change.

"Ghost Emperor, you're asking too much. No one can do such a thing!"

A few of the killing gods scolded, thinking that the Ghost Emperor was just messing with them, or that he didn't want the alliance anymore and was purposely making things difficult.

"Don't use your narrow vision to judge this world!"

The Ghost Emperor's eyes glowed brilliantly, causing Curly Sickle, Killing God Illusion, and the others to subconsciously take a few steps back.

Gu Chen fell silent. Although he was not as angry as the killing gods, he also felt that the Ghost Emperor was playing a trick on him.

The Deva's Decay Five involved the operation of the Heavenly Dao. It was a mystery that was completely beyond his reach …

"This world is very big. It's much more complicated than you and I can imagine. Don't belittle yourself."

The Ghost Emperor looked deeply at Gu Chen. "I won't say anything else. Since you've fulfilled your promise, I promise to come out of seclusion and help you solve the problem of the Yellow Springs Tower."

"Right now, you can only sense the shackles of the Heavenly Dao. You can't do anything yet, so I won't force you. You just have to remember this favor. When you have the ability in the future, don't forget to help me resolve this matter."

The Ghost Emperor had a kind of blind trust in Gu Chen. He actually believed that Gu Chen could resolve the Heavenly Dao Shackles on him.

"What does the Ghost Emperor know …"

Gu Chen murmured. His confidence in himself was not baseless.

Gu Chen really wanted to get to the bottom of the matter. However, since the Ghost Emperor didn't say much, it wasn't good for him to ask.

"Junior understands. Junior will remember senior's favor. Now that senior has come out of seclusion, our chances of defeating Huangfu Wuji will increase greatly. "

The Ghost Emperor shook his head. "You can see my current situation. I'm constantly being tortured by the Deva's Decay Five. I can only lie in the Yellow Springs like a dead man to prolong my life. I can't help you deal with Huangfu Wuji. You can only rely on yourself. "

"The only thing I can do is to help you solve the problem of the Yellow Springs Tower. Without the Yellow Springs Tower, Huangfu Wuji's strength will decrease greatly while yours will increase greatly. This favor shouldn't be small, right?"

Gu Chen nodded. He didn't expect the Ghost Emperor to fight Huangfu Wuji to the death for him.

In reality, the Ghost Emperor didn't recognize anyone when he turned into a dried corpse. If he really had such a lunatic as an ally, he would be worried that he would be screwed one day.

His actions were exactly what he wanted.

"I wonder how senior is going to make the Yellow Springs Tower cooperate with the Celestial Court? If you need our help, just tell us. "

Gu Chen asked curiously.

The Ghost Emperor had left the Yellow Springs Tower that he built up for many years. The Yan Clan had already replaced him. Mo Wuji had always doubted whether the Ghost Emperor could make the Yellow Springs Tower change.

However, the Ghost King swore that as long as the Ghost Emperor came out of seclusion, he would be able to solve the problem easily. Mo Wuji chose to believe him.

"Help? If I need the help of the Celestial Court to control the Yellow Springs Tower, how can I still be called the Lord of the Yellow Springs? "

The Ghost Emperor revealed a look of disdain. At this moment, he seemed to have regained the aura of a monarch that ruled over everything.

"The Yan Clan is merely a dog that I raised. Heh, they relied on the things that I left behind to control the Yellow Springs Tower. Now that master has returned, they will naturally continue to be slaves. "

The Ghost Emperor revealed a demonic smile that sent chills down one's spine.

Now that the first Lord of the Yellow Springs came out of seclusion, the current Lord of the Yellow Springs would probably be in for a tragedy.

Clang! Clang!

The Ghost Emperor quickly broke free from the chains on his body and stretched his muscles.

He had changed into a large black robe. His chiseled face showed a hint of coldness.

"Let's go to the Yan Clan's lair. The sooner we finish this, the sooner we can return. I can't stay outside for too long."

Everyone looked at each other. Killing God Qing Lin couldn't help but ask. "Don't we need to make some preparations? Just go there directly? "

The Ghost Emperor flew through the air, stirring up chilling winds.

"We don't need to make any preparations. All you need to do is watch from the sidelines!"

He took the lead. His attitude was as casual as if he was just going out for a stroll.

"What exactly is the Ghost Emperor relying on? The Yan Clan's lair must be heavily guarded. There are many Saints and even a defensive formation! "

"Not only that, the Yan Clan's lair is equivalent to the Yellow Springs Tower's headquarters. We don't know the exact location, we only heard that there are tens of millions of undead soldiers there!"

The killing gods discussed among themselves.

The mention of undead soldiers caused everyone to show a hint of wariness.

The biggest difference between the Yellow Springs Tower and the Celestial Court was that most of their assassins were Devil cultivators. They were especially skilled in controlling undead and ghosts.

The refined corpses they controlled were invulnerable, didn't know pain, and couldn't be killed. They were much more difficult to deal with than a regular army.

The Yan Clan's lair was rumored to have tens of millions of undead soldiers, a Saint and a defensive formation. No matter how one looked at it, the Ghost Emperor would have a hard time charging in alone.

"Since the Ghost Emperor said that, we'll just have to follow and see."

Gu Chen smiled casually, flew through the air and chased after the Ghost Emperor.
