Chapter 557 This wave of advantage is mine
"Everyone! The destruction of the Immortal Tomb is a stark warning! This Lin Hanzhou is even more ruthless than Emperor Hongyu back then! If we don't unite, he will truly defeat us one by one! Helping me is helping yourselves!"
The words of the Taiyin Emperor were filled with tears and sobs, each word dripping with blood.
however.
A second passed.
Ten seconds passed.
Half an incense stick's time has passed.
Within the network of divine thoughts interwoven in the void, there remained a deathly silence.
No one, not even the most respected figure in the restricted area, stepped forward to respond to her.
The other five forbidden zones displayed a level of tacit understanding and ruthlessness that is hard for ordinary people to imagine.
Instead of offering the Taiyin Emperor any comfort or support, they seemed to have been electrocuted, and with speed faster than rabbits, they scrambled back to the deepest part of their respective forbidden zones.
"Buzzing—"
Immediately afterwards, a spatial barrier, a hundred times denser than ever before, rose up around these five forbidden zones of life.
Ancient sealing formations from various mythological eras were activated without regard to cost, and layers of impenetrable light curtains of laws tightly enveloped the forbidden zone.
They hurriedly concealed their aura!
They gave the Taiyin Emperor the most resounding, yet most ruthless, answer through their actions.
Those supreme beings hidden in the shadows, though they live long, are definitely not stupid.
Unity? Joining forces to fight the enemy?
Stop joking!
Back when Emperor Hongyu destroyed the Immortal Tomb, they didn't dare to step forward and could only cower in their lair, trembling with fear.
Now, facing Lin Hanzhou, the monster who killed the Supreme Being with just half a cup of tea, who would dare to provoke him?
Empress Taiyin, you've been too clever for your own good and provoked a tiger that's about to go berserk. Now that the tiger is about to eat people, you want to drag us all down with you?
There's no such thing as a free lunch!
"Better to die than for me. Taiyin, you've brought this trouble upon yourself; you'll have to bear the consequences."
"Lin Hanzhou is clearly trying to drag someone down with him. Since your Taiyin Imperial Mausoleum has willingly offered itself up to be the scapegoat, then we'll gladly accept it. As long as he doesn't cause us any trouble, what does it matter to us if you die ten times over?"
These are the truest thoughts of the supreme beings of the five forbidden zones.
They naturally understood the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold."
But so what?
They were originally competitors in their respective restricted areas, and they were even hoping that there would be one less competitor when the path to immortality descended.
...........
Inside the Taiyin Emperor's Mausoleum.
Deep within the vast mausoleum, perpetually shrouded in pale moonlight and a thick aura of death, a deathly silence spreads.
Having received no reply from the other five forbidden zones, the Taiyin Emperor's beautiful face was now covered with frost, her expression so gloomy it seemed as if water could drip from it.
"Great...very good!"
The Taiyin Emperor, enraged, laughed, his laughter filled with endless coldness and resentment. The surrounding palaces, carved from millennia-old black ice, trembled violently, and countless ice shards fell in a flurry.
"When disaster strikes, everyone flees for their lives; that's the way you old foxes behave."
"Do you think that by closing the gates and activating the great formation, you can stand by and watch me be devoured alive by Lin Hanzhou? How utterly foolish!"
After a brief outburst of anger and loss of composure, the Taiyin Emperor was ultimately a supreme ruler who had once reigned over the world and suppressed an entire era.
She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the fear in her heart caused by Lin Hanzhou's instant kill of the Supreme Being, and forced herself to calm down. Her brain began to work frantically, analyzing the situation before her.
"What's the panic? What am I afraid of?"
The Taiyin Emperor kept questioning himself in his heart, and that sliver of reason gradually returned, his eyes becoming sharp and cold again.
"While the current Emperor of Time, Lin Hanzhou, was indeed incredibly powerful, he was not truly invincible; he was ultimately just a person!"
She recalled the destruction of the Immortal Tomb back then.
The reason why Emperor Hongyu was able to uproot the Immortal Tomb and completely remove it from the list of the Nine Forbidden Zones was because he had the absolute advantage of favorable timing, location, and popular support!
That was an unrepeatable miracle!
That battle not only featured the unparalleled Emperor Hongyu, a figure rarely seen throughout history, as the main attacker, but also two powerful beings with peak blood and energy, whose combat strength was enough to rival that of an emperor, namely the Great Accomplished Holy Body and the Great Accomplished Hegemon Body, who assisted from the side.
It took the combined might of three supreme warriors, standing at the pinnacle of humanity, to finally annihilate the ancient emperors in the Immortal Tomb.
And what about now?
Now, Emperor Lin Hanzhou of Time is all alone! He has neither a fully accomplished Holy Body to shield him from harm nor a fully accomplished Overlord Body to charge into battle for him.
He was all alone.
No one can destroy the forbidden zone, not even if he is a peerless emperor, unparalleled throughout the ages.
More importantly, this is the Mausoleum of the Empress Taiyin, her home ground.
The Taiyin Imperial Mausoleum is not just home to one supreme being!
Including herself, the Taiyin Imperial Mausoleum is home to six ancient supreme beings who were once invincible!
If this power were released into the outside world, it would be enough to instantly unleash a dark upheaval that would sweep across most of the universe, enough to make any contemporary emperor feel a deep sense of despair and powerlessness.
Even if it's just a matter of exhaustion, the combined might of six supreme beings could completely drain the last bit of lifespan and vitality of a great emperor!
The Empress of Taiyin regained her confidence completely, and her eyes gleamed with calculating shrewdness.
"If we were in the outer starry sky, Lin Hanzhou would have the supreme blessing of the Heavenly Heart Mark, and could mobilize the myriad laws of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths at any time. I might even be a little wary of him."
"But if he's arrogant enough to dare set foot on the territory of my Taiyin Imperial Mausoleum... Hmph!"
The reason why the forbidden zone is called the forbidden zone is because the space and laws here are not connected with the universe of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Inside the forbidden zone, a world of its own exists, and the Heavenly Heart Imprint, representing the will of the universe, cannot completely penetrate it.
Once Lin Hanzhou steps into the imperial mausoleum, he will immediately lose the continuous support of the Great Dao from the Heavenly Heart Mark, and his power will be greatly weakened.
Not only that, he also had to face the suppression of the Taiyin Imperial Mausoleum's native formation, as well as the joint attack of six ancient supreme beings!
"This advantage is entirely in my hands!"
The Empress of Taiyin was no longer flustered. She suddenly waved her wide silver sleeves, and a majestic imperial decree instantly transformed into five streams of light, shooting into the ancient tomb.
"Fellow Daoists, slumber abruptly! A formidable enemy looms before us! The current emperor seeks to crush our land of immortality! Rise with me and meet the enemy!"
As the words of the Taiyin Emperor fell.
"Boom!"
The entire depths of the Taiyin Imperial Mausoleum began to shake violently.
Five ancient coffins, crafted from unknown materials of celestial metal and divine wood, slowly rose from the dark waters of the Taiyin.
The coffin lid shattered with a deafening roar, and five terrifying, supreme pressures, no less powerful than those of the Taiyin Emperor, rose into the sky like five resurrected ancient demonic dragons, instantly tearing the dark clouds above the Taiyin Emperor's Mausoleum to shreds!
