6745: C6745 Houyi’s Bow

C6745 Houyi’s Bow

"The door is not locked. Could it be that someone lives here?" Bai Suqing said hesitantly.

She had been to the Human Emperor Temple before and knew the structure of this place. Generally speaking, the backyard of the Human Emperor Temple was where the Temple Warden and the others lived, and it was usually not open to the public.

"Let's go take a look first."

Lu Yu was not prepared to leave just like that.

Outside the Human Emperor Temple, there was an endless desert, and he did not know how long he would have to walk.

Now, this Human Emperor Temple had suddenly appeared here, and it just so happened that he could take a look at what was hidden here.

Pushing open the side door, a pitch-black passageway appeared in front of the two of them, and the surroundings were filled with a cold and dark aura.

"Ah!"

As Bai Suqing walked, she suddenly could not help but let out a cry of surprise. She covered her mouth and took a few steps back.

Lu Yu hurriedly looked over, and discovered that in the darkness, there was actually an extremely ferocious ghost face that was only left with a miserable skeleton. However, its appearance was extremely terrifying, and it was hidden in the darkness, causing one's scalp to go numb.

"Devil? No, this is only a skeleton."

Lu Yu did not sense any fluctuations of life.

He walked forward and saw a lonely white skull placed on a wooden shelf, as if it was a spoil of war.

On both sides of this long corridor, there were countless white skulls, and there were over a hundred of them. They were densely piled together, and the scene was quite terrifying.

"Why would something like this appear in the Human Emperor Temple?" Bai Suqing muttered.

The difference between this place and the Human Emperor Temple in her memories was too great. In the Heaven Realm, many Human Emperor Temples were built in a solemn manner, and there were many rules within them. In the Human Emperor Temple, it was impossible to see such an evil thing.

"Emperor Yi is a different species of the Nine Human Emperors. He killed many people and used his battle achievements to intimidate the world. These evil spirits are likely the spoils of war of the Human Emperor, and they were placed here," Lu Yu said.

Fortunately, the two of them were experienced cultivators, so they were not shocked by the scene in front of them. Other than being startled at the beginning, the two of them quickly recovered.

After passing through the long corridor, the two of them arrived at an empty hall.

This place was completely different from the main hall that was consecrated to the Human Emperor. There were no windows in the surroundings, and it was completely dark. There were only a few Night-Luminescent Pearls that were emitting a weak light.

On the ground, countless runes that looked like tadpoles were carved on the rough and uneven bricks. They were densely packed together, as if they were written with fresh blood. It was extremely bloody and shocking to the eyes.

There were countless evil spirits' skulls piled up here, and there were thousands of them, forming an enormous white bone altar.

"So many skulls."

Bai Suqing's face was a little pale. The scene in front of her made her feel a chill run down her spine.

"All of them were heads of evil spirits. They were killed with a single strike, and have been stored for ten thousand years. They were all killed by Emperor Yi." Lu Yu picked up a skull.

Even though ten thousand years had passed, this skull was still as hard as iron. It could be seen how terrifying the owner of the skull was when he was alive.

Even such an existence could be killed. Emperor Yi's strength at that time had already reached an inconceivable level.

"Emperor Yi is too terrifying …" Bai Suqing muttered.

She had met with those evil spirits before. If it wasn't for the four divine beasts accompanying her, she would have been dead a long time ago.

However, even such a ferocious and powerful evil spirit was now in a mountain of bones. It was unknown how many had been killed. This showed how powerful Emperor Yi was.

On the altar, there was a blood-red longbow. The body of the bow was emitting a metallic luster, and there were many complex beast tattoos carved on it. It faintly emitted an undying aura.

Lu Yu and Bai Suqing's eyes also landed on the longbow, and were immediately deeply attracted.

"This bow …"

"Could it be the legendary Houyi Bow?"

At this moment, the two of them were shocked.

They looked at the longbow that had appeared on the altar that was piled up with countless white bones. They simply couldn't believe their eyes.

Houyi Bow was Emperor Yi's weapon. Along with Emperor Yi's conquests, he had killed countless experts.

It only existed in the legends. After Emperor Yi died, this bow flew away and disappeared without a trace.

No one had ever seen its true appearance. It was only described in the ancient books with detailed descriptions. This was already a peerless treasure, and even the immortal weapons circulating on the market today were not as precious as this Houyi Bow.

The longbow was placed here, and there was a faint immortal aura emitting from it. With a glance, one could tell that this was not an ordinary item.

"The Nine Suns Shooting Bow, falling into a scorched land. On this bow, nine Three-legged Golden Crows died."

Bai Suqing looked at the bow and arrow above, and her eyes revealed a trace of excitement.

This was a treasure that belonged to the human race. As long as one heard the legend of the Human Emperor, no one would be able to remain calm in front of such a treasure.

The two of them did not act rashly. After all, this was the Human Emperor Temple. Acting rashly would be disrespectful to the Human Emperor.

"Maybe Emperor Yi's spirit is really here." Bai Suqing's eyes flickered with light. "The ancient books say that Emperor Yi died and turned into a golden dragon that soared into the sky, disappearing into the void. Could it be that the Human Emperor's resting place is here?"

Just as she finished speaking, she suddenly heard a strange cry coming from outside the Human Emperor Temple.

In an instant, the floor of the Human Emperor Temple began to tremble violently. The ground outside the temple seemed to be surging with thousands of soldiers and horses, and the ground was trembling endlessly.

Lu Yu's expression suddenly changed. He turned around and rushed out of the temple, and Bai Suqing followed closely behind him.

Outside the temple, it was originally clear and sunny with the scorching sun in the sky, but at this moment, it was covered in dense dark clouds, and the cold Yin Qi spread in all directions.

Looking out, on the boundary between the primitive forest and the desert, a group of ferocious evil ghosts that were emitting Yin Qi rushed over, speeding in the direction of the Human Emperor Temple.

"It's evil ghosts. They actually caught up." Bai Suqing's face was a little pale.

In the Land of Doom, all evil ghosts were unable to fly.

However, they were quite determined, and actually forcefully crossed the entire dense forest, chasing after them.

Lu Yu even saw that there were a few hook snakes' corpses beside them. These hook snakes wanted to attack the evil ghosts, but they did not expect that they would be killed instead.

"Why are these evil ghosts here? What are they looking for?"

Lu Yu frowned. He suddenly thought of something. The horned evil ghost had told him before that they had taken something that they shouldn't have.

What was something that they shouldn't have taken?

Lu Yu's heart sank. He had just arrived here and was already being chased by countless evil ghosts. He had not taken anything at all.

Then it was very likely that there was something on Bai Suqing's body that attracted these evil ghosts to come.

"Dong..."

Inside the Human Emperor Temple, the ancient bell rang continuously, indicating that a disaster was about to descend.0
