Chapter 1244 - 1244 1243 Deep Communication

Chapter 1244: Chapter 1243 Deep Communication Chapter 1244: Chapter 1243 Deep Communication [Threat]

As the lord of a nation, the Tomb Lord was naturally very aware of the many hidden threats within the Corpse Country.

However, like Han Dong had said, there seemed to be no threats that met the criteria of affecting the overall plan.

“What kind of threat?”

“A threat not of this world… Your Majesty need not send people to investigate, so as to avoid startling the snake by hitting the grass.

I have already thrown out a series of baits in advance, and when the time is ripe, the other party will surface on their own. The key here is not to expose our relationship.”

“How confident are you in this matter?”

“Eighty percent, with the remaining twenty percent reserved; because I am not quite certain of the threat’s own strength… However, as long as I have the domain suppression given by Your Majesty, I should be able to handle it myself.”

“Do you plan to deal with this matter within the Taiji Palace?”

“Indeed, the threat has lurked in the Corpse Country for a long time, and it must be eradicated in one fell swoop.

Without Your Majesty’s help, I might let the opponent escape with my current state as a corpse.”

Speaking, Han Dong presented the letter that he had written in advance to the Tomb Lord.

The Tomb Lord scrutinized the relevant information on the letter, while gently tapping a silver needle connected to his chest with his fingers.

Ding…

Layers of vibrations traveled along the conduit to the base of the dragon throne.

Soon, a scroll rose up from a secret passage hidden within the dragon throne for the Tomb Lord to review.

The situation recorded on the scroll matched almost exactly with the information provided by Han Dong, corroborating the so-called [Threat].

“We’ll leave this matter to you, then. If you can get it done, it will add another merit to your contributions to the Corpse Country.”

“Yes.”

With the experience at Moon God Mountain, the basic communication between Han Dong and the Tomb Lord was concluded, and their relationship was successfully established.

Just as Han Dong was taking the ‘Secret Officer Document’ and preparing to leave.

The Tomb Lord suddenly asked about something he had observed.

“Your real body didn’t come along with your head?”

Han Dong was startled; he had not expected the Tomb Lord to see through even this.

“That’s right, due to Your Majesty’s influence, the connection between the world of ‘The Tombs’ and the Black Tower has now been reduced to [13%].

When I was traversing through the planes, I barely managed to bring over my head, while my body was isolated… Otherwise, my efficiency would have been higher.

Nevertheless, the regeneration of a stiff body has also yielded rich rewards.”

“Indeed, the ‘Deadly Gas’ I released could not penetrate your head, but it could easily seep through your body… It’s as if the two are connected but not one and the same.

It seems you’ve reached your current state step by step using ordinary Corpse Handlers of our nation.

Moreover, you seem to have chosen to enhance your body according to the model of our country. Which ‘Corpse Collection’ did you choose?”

“Bachelor Du Zhijing’s ‘Floating Corpse Internal Classic.'”

This answer seemed to excite the Tomb Lord, who struggled to reach out an arm to touch Han Dong’s body:

“I didn’t expect you would be able to choose and cultivate this ‘peculiar’ Corpse Collection.

In that case, there’s no need to provide you with any other valuable Corpse Collections… That being said, I once conducted an evaluation of ‘Corpse Collections’ within the Corpse Country.

In the end, my uniquely created ‘Destroy World Corpse Code’ was judged the strongest.

Following that, there are three Corpse Collections that are slightly inferior.

The first one belongs to the National General, my leading general, who composed the ‘Gang Jing.’ This book has been designated as the special cultivation Corpse Collection for the Brocade Robe Guards by my personal acknowledgment. All Brocade Robe Guards from the Forbidden Army within the Inner Palace will have the qualifications to practice the ‘Gang Jing.’

What’s special about this book is that it can be compatible with any Corpse Collection the user had previously cultivated.

The second is the ‘Heaven Evolution Secret Sutra,’ created by the founder of the Secret Department, no doubt by the Minister of the Secret Department himself.

The Corps Handler Sir Yan, who just led you here, is cultivating this Corpse Collection, and his strength is also quite formidable… If you’re interested, as a Secret official, you can apply for a free copy of this book.

The third is the ‘Floating Corpse Internal Classic,’ which no one has been able to cultivate for hundreds of years. This Corpse Collection’s evaluation can only be based on Bachelor Du’s past performance, and it’s very possible that the book’s potential was underestimated.

I have also looked through this book several times. The initial foundational chapters are whimsical and perplexing.

The subsequent cultivation methods are sporadic and disorganized, easily disturbing the Corpse Energy within the body, leading to a high risk of cultivation deviation.

I once suspected that Bachelor Du was unwilling to pass down his lifetime of learning. Unexpectedly, you were able to cultivate it… If my body was not so constrained, I truly wish to spar with you.”

Han Dong responded with a smile, “Once the plan for Corpse Country has been fully successful, and Your Majesty has broken free from your physical constraints, it wouldn’t be too late for us to have a spar.”

Hearing this, the Tomb Lord let go completely, a laughter emanating from within:

“Ha-ha! Well said… When the time comes, I will suppress my own strength to match yours and truly test our bodies’ collision.

After all, I also want to see if the ‘Destroy World Corpse Code’ can truly be considered the best in the Corpse Country!”

This response left Han Dong somewhat puzzled: “Has Your Majesty never sparred with Bachelor Du Zhijing?”

“That’s the sad part.

Bachelor Du Zhijing once assisted me through the two most difficult periods of the establishment of Corpse Country—[The Demon Region Turmoil] and [The Xuan Door Political Upheaval]. He was already wounded in the Demon Region and was attacked by more than a dozen strong figures during the Xuan Door Political Upheaval.

Although he ultimately suppressed the rebels, he himself suffered irreparable severe injuries and passed away a few days later.”

“Is Bachelor Du Zhijing’s corpse still around?”

“Any corpse that has made significant contributions to Corpse Country is permanently preserved in the Earth Evil Palace.”

The Tomb Lord could see Han Dong’s intention, and a Black Jade Pendant infused with Deadly Gas was handed over.

“With this pendant, you can access any area, including the chained areas and the Earth Evil Palace. If you need anything else, let Sir Yan find a proper excuse to bring you to the Taiji Palace to see me.”

“Alright.”

“I’ll leave these matters to you.”

…

The conversation in the Taiji Palace lasted for well over an hour.

Outside, Sir Yan and two Brocade Robe Guards were getting anxious. Concern for the Emperor’s personal safety was growing by the minute.

After all, no one had ever stayed in the Taiji Palace for so long, especially for just a minor secret official review.

Just when everyone could barely hold back and wanted to enter the palace on their own, footsteps came from the Inner Palace, accompanied by Han Dong’s figure emerging.

“You…”

Before Sir Yan could ask, Han Dong took out the ‘Secret Officer Document’ stamped by the Tomb Lord from his waist.

“The review for the Secret official has been approved. His Majesty has instructed me to cooperate closely with Sir Yan to work on the contents of the research manuscripts, and to further perfect the [Corpse Bug], as this is a critical period where no mistakes can be made.”

“Okay… let’s go to the Secret Department.”

Sir Yan had a thousand questions in his mind, but didn’t know how to ask them at the moment.
