Chapter 2478 The end of the road
There were too many miscellaneous items in Yujing City, and it didn't have any magical fluctuations, so Shangguan Biao didn't take it seriously.
Then a strong wind blew by, and the wind rushed into the cracks of the stone pillar, bringing a commotion that, if listened to closely, sounded somewhat like the clash of swords and the thunder of horses.
Hearing this voice, Shangguan Biao was already somewhat agitated. The Violent Bear King noticed his displeasure, stretched out its large paw, and smashed Shi Gandang to pieces.
With a "poof" sound, the stone slab shattered into eight pieces.
But the bear king, who was sitting upright on the wall, suddenly leaned back and fell into the wall!
"idiot!"
Shangguan Biao was startled and looked at the wall. Yes, there were all sorts of small spaces in Yujing City, which he usually didn't pay much attention to, but in the end, he was tricked.
But his most important possession, the colored stone, is with the Bear King; wherever it goes, he can only go.
Shangguan Biao had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush in.
It was clearly just a broken wall with no end in sight, but after Shangguan Biao rushed into the wall with the Violent Bear King, he discovered that there was actually a space inside!
It looked like a small hut, with bottles and jars piled up in the corner, and two people inside.
"who are you!"
The moment Shangguan Biao uttered those words, he knew the answer.
This living person seems to be Jiuyou's companion who previously infiltrated Yujing City but didn't enter the Duzhishan Secret Realm. Shangguan Biao sent his men to hunt it down, but the creature mysteriously disappeared.
In retrospect, he had hidden himself in this unknown space.
Shangguan Biao found it strange at all. Yujing City had existed for a long time, and he liked to collect spoils of war. The city not only had strange and unusual buildings, but also strange and unusual collections and props. He couldn't recognize every single one of them.
Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, and he wouldn't bother with it, but he never expected that he would stumble in such an inconspicuous space when he was down on his luck.
What kind of space is this? It's just a crack in the wall!
As for the other person, to be precise, he was a wandering soul. Shangguan Biao felt that he looked a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
"Don't you remember me?" The lonely ghost straightened up. "You hung my head on the city gate to be exposed to the sun for three days. On the first day, crows pecked out my eyeballs. Have you forgotten? You also often used my name to set up machinations for your subordinates in the city. Have you forgotten?"
He said the first point, which Shangguan Biao didn't recall, but when he mentioned the second point, Shangguan Biao knew it.
Mountain bandits!
At this moment, a small black shadow crawled out of the jar, but before it could reach the Bear King, it turned into a large spider.
The Cave Spider Queen, a companion of the Nine Nether Emperor!
Shangguan Biao's face was ashen.
It turned out that he and the Bear King had already fallen into each other's illusionary formation, and no matter which way they went, they would eventually end up here.
Just then, a shadow flashed at the entrance, and someone else came in.
To Shangguan Biao, it sounded like he was deliberately making his steps heavy, each one a drumbeat signaling impending death.
Without turning around, Shangguan Biao knew who it was.
"You've been abandoned by everyone, yet you've managed to struggle for so long. I admire you." The man gently applauded Shangguan Biao. "No wonder you're the gravedigger of Changfeng Valley. You're incredibly resilient."
"Nine Nether Emperor!" Shangguan Biao took a deep breath. "How did you find me? Have you already taken control of Jade Capital City?"
He was defeated in the void and turned to run. Jade Capital City is so vast, how could He Lingchuan have caught him so precisely?
Unless He Lingchuan has completely taken control of the entire Yujing City.
“You are the guardian spirit in the Duzhishan Secret Realm, and you are also a soul body. The secret realm is like your Juluo Wood. You cannot stray too far from it, and you cannot lift it on your own.” The soul residing in the Juluo Wood cannot lift it either. “However, fortunately, your Duzhishan Secret Realm was not originally formed naturally, but was transformed from Wang Ye’s ‘Liuguang’ Secret Realm. It may be possible to separate it from Yujing City. Therefore, the only way for you to escape Yujing City is to find someone to move the Liuguang Secret Realm.”
He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Originally, this was just my speculation, but your decision to end the Duzhishan Secret Realm at all costs has basically confirmed my conclusion."
At that time, the Duzhishan Secret Realm and the Panlong New Secret Realm were locked in a fierce battle, a natural instinct between two powerful secret realms that would not stop until a clear victor emerged. But as soon as the battle in the Void Land ended, the Duzhishan Secret Realm also suddenly disappeared.
“Forcibly closing the secret realm will cause great damage to it. There aren’t many options you have. Did you kill your former self?” Let alone the fact that the Duzhishan Secret Realm and Yujing City have been integrated for thousands of years, even if a large tree is uprooted after growing for a hundred years, it will definitely be damaged at its core.
Furthermore, the Duzhishan Secret Realm has continued as usual for thousands of years, and it is especially difficult for Shangguan Biao to change it himself. "You can't kill your former self, so you found someone else to do it for you? And this person will help you take away the Flowing Light Secret Realm afterward, so he must have your deep trust."
He Lingchuan laughed: "That's the problem. You never trust anyone, even if you've managed Yujing City for thousands of years. In the end, you can only choose the best among the worst and go after this bear demon."
Even in the rise and fall of dynasties, even the most incompetent rulers always have a few loyal ministers and servants by their side. Shangguan Biao searched high and low but couldn't find an ideal candidate, so he could only turn to the relatively honest and loyal of the three demon kings, the Violent Bear King.
“So, as long as I find the Bear King, I can basically find you.” He Lingchuan glanced at the Bear King, who bared his teeth at him, but his body honestly shrank back. “When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. This is your tragedy, and also your destiny.”
Shangguan Biao opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
"Don't assume it's truly working for you." He Lingchuan pointed at the Bear King. "It had a secret agreement with that leopard demon long ago."
The Bear King was taken aback and quickly said, "You're talking nonsense, I didn't!"
Shangguan Biao also said, "He swore a blood oath to me!"
"Aren't there always loopholes in oaths?" He Lingchuan chuckled. "Where was it when you were surrounded earlier?"
At that time, the Bear King fell into the trap of the Blue Leopard Demon and was pressed under a boulder.
But Shangguan Biao was also a smart man. He understood immediately when He Lingchuan pointed it out. His eyes were like those of a caged tiger, filled with despair and resentment as he looked at the Violent Bear King.
"I see. What a clever ruse! I underestimated you before."
Before taking control of the Flowing Light Secret Realm, Shangguan Biao made the Violent Bear King swear an oath never to disobey him. He himself was a master at exploiting loopholes; he had successfully seized power and destroyed Changfeng Valley by taking advantage of a flaw in the contract between Changfeng Valley and the Earth Mother. How could he not know that there are no perfect alliances in the world?
But deep down he believed that the Bear King was not intelligent enough to find a loophole in the blood oath of the heart alliance.
If you can't find it, it's the same as not having it.
But now that he thinks about it, the fact that the Bear King was hit by the boulder conveniently avoided violating the blood oath of the Heart Alliance. It was unconscious at the time; how could it possibly help Shangguan Biao escape or block a blow?
