Chapter 1529: The Gravekeeper
"I know everything you want to know." Su Bai smiled faintly. "I advise you not to try to get the Qiankun Sword. Otherwise, you will really die miserably. If you don't believe me, you can try again. I don't have any intention of killing you yet, but don't think I can't kill you."
Su Bai's voice gradually became colder, which made the people in the Shadow Pavilion feel afraid. They turned around and left. It would be of no benefit for them to continue staring at Su Bai and Bai Xuan, and it might even bring them fatal disaster.
"Okay, they won't bother you again in the future." Su Bai turned and said to Bai Xuan. Although Bai Xuan has obtained the Qiankun Sword now, his own cultivation is not too strong. If the other party intends to take his life, he is afraid that he will not be able to walk out of here alive.
Su Bai was willing to protect him for a while, which could be considered a good relationship.
Afterwards, the two prepared to leave the cemetery, but at the moment Bai Xuan took a step forward, he suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing from behind, which made him feel cold in his heart, as if a hand stretched out from the darkness was trying to hold him down, making it impossible for him to move.
"What's wrong?" Su Bai looked at Bai Xuan and felt that something was wrong with him. Bai Xuan's throat seemed to be pinched by a pair of hands, and he couldn't breathe. Seeing that the situation was not good, Su Bai urged the thunder energy in his body to turn into a thunder handprint to hit the dark palm at Bai Xuan's throat. Then there was a sound of glass breaking, and Bai Xuan's body felt much more relaxed. He looked down and found a lot of black powder on the ground.
Su Bai looked back at the cemetery, with a flash of lightning in his eyes. He saw a huge gray figure condensed above the tombstone. The figure stared at the two of them with a grin, and its huge mouth seemed to want to swallow them both.
However, only Su Bai could see all this, Bai Xuan could not.
The hand that had just pinched his throat was the hand of the huge gray shadow.
"You retreat first." Su Bai said.
Although he didn't know why Su Bai said that, Bai Xuan's intuition told him that this matter was probably not simple, and Su Bai must have seen something that he couldn't see.
"Be careful."
After saying that, Bai Xuan left the cemetery.
Su Bai looked at the huge gray figure and said, "Who is this expert? Come out and see me."
However, no one responded to him, but Su Bai firmly believed that there must be someone here, and the other party was secretly watching his every move.
"Since you refuse to come out, I have no choice but to take action."
"Taiyin Divine Ring!"
Su Bai formed seals with his hands, and circles of ice halos appeared around his body. Tens of thousands of ice halos refined the cold air in this place. As Su Bai's mind moved, the ice halos slammed towards the gray shadow in front, blocking its body like huge chains.
Bang bang bang!
The gray shadow was struggling, but the power of Taiyin was so strong that it didn't give it any chance to break free. Su Bai was forcing the other party to show up.
"If you don't show up, my Taiyin power will completely lock your pet to death."
Su Bai called the gray shadow "pet", and suddenly waves appeared in the void.
"Boy, which faction do you belong to?"
An old voice suddenly sounded.
"You are communicating with me like this without revealing your true form?"
"Buzz!"
As soon as Su Bai finished speaking, an old man in his seventies or eighties appeared in front of the gray shadow. His hair and beard were all white, and he looked like rotten wood, but the aura emanating from his body was extremely terrifying.
"I am the owner of this cemetery. You can also call me the gravekeeper." said the old man.
"My name is Su Bai."
Since the other party was honest, Su Bai naturally would not say anything hypocritical.
Moreover, if the other party is a gravekeeper, he should not do anything to him.
"You disturbed my quiet cultivation." The gravekeeper said, "And that fellow just now, he was holding the Qiankun Sword, right? But I don't think he's worthy of wielding it right now. I'm afraid you're the one who got the sword."
Su Bai didn't expect that the other party could see so much at a glance, but he just smiled and said: "Senior, you are joking. Everything is fate."
"Haha, that's true. Everything is fate." The old gravekeeper continued, "Since you've broken in here, you might as well stay. There's no need to leave. It's just right that there's someone I can talk to. I haven't spoken to a normal person in hundreds of years."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old gravekeeper slowly raised his hand, and red rays of light flew out from his sleeves. Those rays of light scattered in all directions of the cemetery and turned into a huge barrier that sealed off the entire place.
"Senior, I'm afraid I can't agree to your request, because I still need to find the Burning Lotus Golden Flame, so I must leave as soon as possible."
Su Bai shook his head. Time was running out and he couldn't stay any longer.
"Want to find the Burning Lotus Golden Flame? Haha, do you know where the Burning Lotus Golden Flame is?" The old gravekeeper laughed, which made Su Bai a little confused. Could it be that the other party knew the whereabouts of the Burning Lotus Golden Flame?
Su Bai remembered what the elder of the Nine Spirits Clan had told him before, that there might be something somewhere deep in the Flame Mountains, but that was just a possibility. Su Bai was not sure whether he could really find what he wanted there.
So, he shook his head: "I don't know."
"Since you don't know, where are you going to look for it? If you're willing to stay here, I can send someone to help you look for it. Besides, I know where the Burning Lotus Golden Flame is."
"People? Is there anyone alive here?"
Su Bai looked around. There were no living people here. All he could see were graves.
"Boom!"
At this moment, a grave next to him opened and a man covered in mud crawled out of it. He was pale and lifeless, obviously dead.
"I'm the gravekeeper here, so the guys in the cemetery are naturally under my control. As long as I want, I can ask them to do anything for me at any time."
"But they are already dead after all, so why bother to desecrate them?"
Su Bai still shook his head: "I can't stay here."
He took a step forward and his figure appeared in the void. Just as he was about to leave this place, the old gravekeeper frowned and looked extremely unhappy.
"If you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with alcohol!"
"In that case, I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
The old gravekeeper waved his hand, and the huge shadow behind him slammed a palm towards Su Bai, overwhelming the world. Su Bai slashed at the void with one hand, and a sharp sword light slashed down, cutting the palm print.
"The power of rules!"
The gravekeeper's expression suddenly changed: "You kid actually controlled the power of rules!"
"That's right." Su Bai lowered his head and glanced at the old man: "I hope the gravekeeper will not embarrass me."
