Chapter 1527: Chapter 1527: Re-entering the Emperor’s Mausoleum

Hearing Jiang Xiaobai’s words, Qin Ruonan smiled subconsciously.

“What, you don’t actually plan to go to the Emperor’s Mausoleum to ask the Giant Spirit God about the battlefield matters, do you?”

“Forget about it, he won’t say anything. Our successive Demonic Lords have asked countless times and it never did any good, we were even almost driven out.”

“However, why do you call him Giant Spirit God? Didn’t he say his name was just Giant Spirit? Why add the word ‘God’ to the back, is it because of his past identity, you know something?”

Jiang Xiaobai was startled and thought, damn, I’ve given myself away!

He quickly shook his head with a sheepish smile and did not elaborate further, but his heart was already in turmoil!

Absolutely can’t blow his cover. Letting the Giant Spirit God know that he understood their true identity could spell big trouble.

After all, considering when the Demonic Abyss was established, it’s at least several million years, and the deaths of the heavenly divine officers are even more ancient!

Almost nothing would have been handed down from them. For someone as unclear about his origins as he was to know their identities, it was inevitable to be suspected!

“Mystery after mystery…”

Qin Ruonan pouted, feeling extremely frustrated by Jiang Xiaobai’s non-responsive behavior.

But having gotten to know him for a while, she also realized that if Jiang Xiaobai didn’t want to talk about something, she wouldn’t be able to pry it out of him.

“Let’s go.”

Now that it was put this way, she was still keen to try and see whether Jiang Xiaobai could really learn about the battlefield from the Giant Spirit God.

Qin Ruonan immediately teleported everyone back to the uppermost world of the Demonic Abyss, and upon seeing the beautiful scenery here, everyone was deeply captivated.

“You guys rest here. I have something to take care of with Xiaobai.”

Qin Ruonan instructed indifferently and then led Jiang Xiaobai into the Emperor’s Mausoleum.

Returning here, looking at the graves in front of him, Jiang Xiaobai was no longer puzzled, but instead, his face was full of reverence, and his heart was filled with immense apprehension!

This was no joke; he was very aware of who was buried here!

Each and every one of them was an existence beyond gods!

If any one of them were still alive, they could easily trounce the entire intermediary world, any foreign ancestor, any that eerie visage.

They’re all damn trash!

And now, these divine officers, these formidable beings, lay quietly in this place.

Although it was only a ceremonial mound, Jiang Xiaobai knew very well that things were not that simple.

He felt more and more that the matters he encountered were too mysterious.

Soon, the two of them passed many gravestones and found the Giant Spirit God, who was enjoying the view on the cliff.

“Why are you here again?”

The Giant Spirit God furrowed his brow tightly, glanced at Jiang Xiaobai, and then stared intently at him: “You’ve only been out a few days, and you’ve managed to get yourself into this state?”

“You’re a Daluo Golden Immortal but your lifespan is insufficient, who would believe that if you told them?”

Jiang Xiaobai stood there, embarrassed; indeed, it was quite shameful to be in this state.

But the specific reason, nobody knew.

“Cough cough… Some accidents led to this situation. But since you, the Giant Spirit God, can discern my problem, perhaps you know the cause or a solution?”

Jiang Xiaobai prodded cautiously.

The Giant Spirit God glanced at him, then snorted coldly: “You’re thinking too much, I’m just a tomb guardian, I don’t know much.”

Jiang Xiaobai thought to himself, as expected.

This guy either knew the reason but refused to tell him or he genuinely didn’t know.

But Jiang Xiaobai was more inclined to believe the former!

Such an ancient being, as a heavenly divine officer, must know something!

“There’s no more treasure left here that you can use, so what are you doing here? Could it be that you see this old man too lonely being alone and want to keep me company?”

Juying God revealed a sinister smile, making Jiang Xiaobai and Qin Ruonan’s skin crawl with unease.

“There’s nothing… I just have some questions I would like to ask you.”

Jiang Xiaobai took a deep breath: “Regarding the battlefield, I wanted to know…”

“No need to think further, I won’t tell you about it. That place is just a battlefield. For you, it might hold opportunities and legacies, but to me, it’s just a land of death.”

Juying God coldly said, “If that’s the only question you have, you can leave now.”

Juying God’s extremely poor attitude left Jiang Xiaobai with no choice but to hold his tongue, while a smile emerged on Qin Ruonan’s face.

She looked at Jiang Xiaobai, her gaze seemingly saying–I told you so, it’s pointless to come here.

However, Jiang Xiaobai shook his head: “That’s only one of my questions. If the senior does not wish to elaborate, then let it be.”

“It’s not that I don’t want to elaborate… It’s just that place doesn’t represent much, it’s not of great significance. If you feel bored, you can go there for a stroll, though I don’t know whether you can still enter now.”

Juying God casually said, “What’s your other question?”

“Do you know how to enter the Underworld!”

As soon as Jiang Xiaobai said this, Juying God was instantly stunned, curiously looking at Jiang Xiaobai.

“How do you know about the Underworld?”

“Um… My mentor told me.”

“Who is your mentor? An Earth Immortal realm powerhouse?”

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t conceal it: “Gu Ning!”

Initially, Gu Ning had said that if Juying God tried to lay a hand on Jiang Xiaobai, just to mention Gu Ning’s name and the latter would hold back.

But it was only now that Jiang Xiaobai had the chance to say it.

Indeed, upon hearing the name Gu Ning, a smile appeared on Juying God’s face.

“Heh heh, so it’s that lass. Not bad, kid, to become her disciple… That lass is really picky, it looks like you have some secrets yet to be discovered.”

Although Jiang Xiaobai had been mentally prepared, he still didn’t expect Juying God to be so familiar with Gu Ning!

“Don’t overthink it. In my time, she wasn’t even around.”

Juying God smiled faintly, as if reminiscing: “One year, her mentor brought her here for a visit. Her mentor is an old friend of mine…”

Jiang Xiaobai felt embarrassed!

Goodness, so his own ancestor was from that era?

Is his ancestor still alive?

If so, does it mean he has a celestial backing?

“Why do you want to go to the Underworld? Since its creation, living beings must not approach; only the dead can go there. Even if you have a purpose, it’s useless to go. Maybe once you go there, you will stay there forever.”

Juying God sneered, “What now, do you still plan to go? Do you really know what that place is?”

Jiang Xiaobai really wanted to say I know!

Not just know, but damn well know!

Regrettably, he dared not say it!

“I will still go back, please enlighten me on the way to proceed, senior!”

Jiang Xiaobai bowed with hands clasped in respect.

Juying God narrowed his eyes, pondering–he had already warned him, and yet he still wanted to go?

“It seems you have compelling reasons. I can’t be bothered to ask about them. To reach the Underworld, you must first get to the Earth Immortal realm, and only in that plane is there an entrance.”

“This token can guide you and act as the key to the Underworld. Take good care of it.”

After saying that, Juying God tossed a pitch-black token to Jiang Xiaobai.

On it was a blood-red character.

Ming!
