Chapter 689 Revealing the Trump Card
"The real origin? So you don't intend to hide it anymore?"

Yun Zhixuan smiled playfully, making it hard to guess how much he knew. Zhang Qian even suspected that maybe Yun Zhixuan had already discovered him, but she just didn't say it out loud.

Mu Pianpian's temperament changed drastically at this moment. She was no longer the fairy-like appearance she had before, nor did she have a trace of childishness and innocence. Only endless indifference remained. Her eyes suddenly became extremely vicissitudes of life, like the eyes of an antique who had lived for several eras. This kind of eyes did not look like what a woman in her twenties should have.

"When you became a disciple of Yao Chi Holy Land, I felt something strange from the moment you entered. At that time, my ability of seeing through walls had already been cultivated to the first level of the innate realm. Logically, a child like you who has no cultivation should not have any secrets, but I can't see any information about you, as if there is a layer of fog blocking it. At first, I thought it was because your luck was too strong, but later my ability of seeing through walls not only improved, but I found that this should not be the case, especially the real phoenix beside you!"

"Real Phoenix?"

Mu Pianpian's expression remained unchanged, but she was a little surprised.

“That’s right. When you were just accepted into the Yao Chi Holy Land, the real phoenix beside you disappeared. When it returned again, it brought back a cultivation method from the ancient times for you. This is also the important reason why you can become famous in Zu Shenzhou and eventually become the Yao Chi Holy Maiden. The real phoenix brought the ancient true method. Haha, this kind of encounter has never happened before. However, my ability of seeing through walls didn’t work on you at the beginning, but I saw it clearly on the real phoenix. When the real phoenix left the Yao Chi Holy Land, it flew to the Emperor’s Burial Tomb above the Nine Heavens, and entered the Emperor’s Burial Tomb very smoothly, and brought back a jade slip from it. From that time on, I knew that your origin must be related to the Emperor’s Burial Tomb!”

Yun Zhixuan recounted the story of how she discovered the abnormality of Zhen Feng. Her tone was very calm, and no fluctuations could be heard. However, the people around her felt a chill in their hearts. Since Yun Zhixuan had directly revealed Mu Pianxian's secret, it was obvious that she was not going to continue to play along and was going to overturn the table.

Mu Pianxian didn't show any sign of nervousness, even though her cultivation level was far behind Yun Zhixuan's. She just glanced at Yun Zhixuan calmly and said slowly, "You are quite thoughtful for discovering my secret through the movements of the True Phoenix. But since you discovered it a long time ago, why did you come to this passage? Aren't you afraid that this is a deadly trap?"

Yun Zhixuan smiled confidently: "Of course I know that this is a trap that was painstakingly set, but why should I be afraid? If a small trap can cost me my life, then I am not worthy of reaching the pinnacle!"

"You are still so calm after I revealed your secret. It seems that you have a trump card in your hand. Then take it out and let me see why you are so confident that you dare to plot against me!"

The royal dragon energy burst out from Yun Zhixuan's body, and she looked at Mu Pianpian with a smile, as if she was looking at a struggling ant.

The next moment, Mu Pianpian suddenly took a light step and passed through the exit of the passage in a flash.

"Humph!"

Yun Zhixuan was not in a hurry to take action and chased after him instantly.

When everyone passed through the exit, there was a lake outside. The lake was extremely clear, with beautiful mountains standing on the shore. Between the mountains, there were streams with extremely rich spiritual energy winding through. There were green pines and cypresses, strange stones and bamboos all around, and small waterfalls flowing down from the mountains, stirring up patches of mist and rippling rainbows.

All of this makes the scenery by the lake look like a fairyland. Standing here, you can't tell that this is the extremely dangerous imperial tomb. It only makes people feel relaxed and happy.

However, when everyone turned around, their faces changed.

On the other side of the lake, there is a low hill. The hill is far away from the lake, but it is clearly visible. It is about three hundred feet high. The ups and downs of the hill are very gentle. The whole hill is not as vibrant as other mountains. Instead, there is no grass. The whole hill is gray and lifeless. That would be fine, but in the eyes of everyone, this hill is covered with dense Taoist patterns!
The Dao pattern was just like the Emperor Dao pattern that we had encountered in the passage before! The strange thing was that these countless Dao patterns only floated around the hills, but did not leave the hills. Even though they were so far away, everyone could still sense a mighty force that could crush the ages coming from the depths of the hills. This mighty force was directly imprinted in everyone's hearts, causing them to involuntarily feel awe.

"Is this the Emperor's tomb?"

Zhang Qian stared at the hill. Who would have thought that the emperor's tomb was so ordinary, just a gentle hill. The only magical thing was that there were countless emperor's Dao patterns around the hill. The Dao patterns directly affected the surrounding time and space and disrupted the rules.

"Mu Pianxian, no matter what, this emperor has to thank you. If it weren't for you, this emperor wouldn't have been the first to enter the Emperor's Burial Mausoleum. What's your trump card? Why don't you take it out and let this emperor see it?"

Seeing the Emperor's Tomb, Yun Zhixuan's eyes lit up. Since there was the Emperor's Tomb here, it meant that this place was really deep in the Emperor's burial ground. Then the Great Xia Kan Ding should be somewhere, and it must be very close.

As for Mu Pianxian's trump card, Yun Zhixuan didn't think it could threaten her. She had made all the preparations this time. With the ancient Panlong formation and the real dragon seal in hand, she could make a small world burst with a wave of her hand. Who could resist? Moreover, Yun Zhixuan had also mastered the secret magical power of controlling the Starlight Divine Water. The Starlight Divine Water was the nemesis of almost all treasure bodies. Even when facing the Human King, Yun Zhixuan was not afraid at all.

Yun Zhixuan just treated Mu Pianpian as a mere accident.

Mu Pianxian looked at the confident Yun Zhixuan and suddenly smiled: "Thank me? What makes you so confident? Is it the ancient Panlong formation, the real dragon seal, or the power of the starlight sacred water? You have gone from being a poor saint to becoming the supreme dragon emperor. You are quite talented. But wait, everything you have will be mine!"

Mu Pianpian's aura suddenly surged, not because her cultivation had improved but because of her aura that looked down on the world and was invincible. It appeared so strange.

Such a terrifying aura should not appear on her at all.

Rumble!
At this moment, the ground beneath everyone's feet suddenly began to shake.

Click!
The ground behind Mu Pianpian suddenly cracked open, and an innate stone spirit emitting a hazy jade light and a head taller than everyone else walked out from the depths of the earth.

This statue, which was born with a malfunction, is in the form of a woman. Her extremely indifferent face is surprisingly similar to Mu Pianpian.

The strange thing is that there is no fluctuation in the eyes of this innate stone spirit, only dead silence. It looks like this innate stone spirit is just a puppet without any spirituality or intelligence. But who can refine an innate stone spirit into a puppet?

Even a powerful being like Zang Tianque, who was in control of the Dao of Curse, spent tens of thousands of years trying to take over and refine the body of an innate stone spirit, but still failed.
