Immortal Emperor of the Perfect World

Chapter 423 Primal Imperial City
At this moment, the lines between Xu Yu's brows were glowing, extremely blazing, like a small sun.

After a long time, the lines between his eyebrows did not disappear, they were still glowing, like a ball of divine flame boiling and igniting, burning the heavens.

"Haha...Xiao Yu, you look like a big lantern like this."

The witch laughed from the side, and shook her hand in front of his forehead, which had no effect on the lines, as if it was between reality and illusion.

Xu Yu didn't want to make himself as bright as a lantern, so with a thought, the light between the eyebrows began to weaken, and the blazing light was concentrated, leaving only the lines.

The lines are carved like rubies, the lines are crystal clear, revealing a bright luster, and also revealing a kind of nobility.

"Xiao Yu, this pattern looks like a divine character, can you think of anything?" the witch asked.

If she remembered correctly, Shi Hao also awakened this kind of lines on his forehead when he was in the Three Thousand Dao State, but in comparison, the lines on the foreheads of the two are basically different in shape except for the same color.

The witch had seen it with her own eyes, the lines on Shi Hao's forehead were like a stone character.

From this point of view, Shi Hao was born in the Stone Clan, and his ancestor was one of the Seven Kings of the Frontier Desolation, so the lines would be stone characters, representing the Stone Clan.

And the pattern on Xu Yu's forehead is a divine character. Could it be that Xu Yu's ancestors were named God, representing the gods?
Is there a race like the Protoss in the world?The witch has never heard of it.

Shaking his head, Xu Yu didn't know why the lines on his forehead were a divine character. The only thing that was certain was that it had something to do with his ancestors.

"Let's go into the city and have a look, maybe we can know why," the witch looked towards the original imperial city ahead.

Afterwards, the two walked towards the original imperial city, and the truth of many things might be revealed in this original imperial city.

Gradually approaching the original imperial city, there are many skeletons on the uneven ground, some of which are so lifelike that one wonders if there is still life.

But Xu Yu and the witch knew at a glance that these people were all dead, without the slightest breath of life.

As for why these people's bodies are preserved so intact, there is only one possibility, that is, they were sucked out of energy in an instant.

And these people didn't have time to react at all, so they left behind empty shells, like statues.

Less than a hundred feet away from the gate of the original imperial city, there was a fire burning.

When Xu Yu and the witch approached, they found that what was burned was not wood, but a pile of skeletons, which also possessed divine powers, making the flames appear a light red.

In the fire, among the skeletons, there is still unburned flesh, and even half a human face.

Around the fire, there are various runes locked, which are peerless magic circles, which cut off the fire.

"This is the skeleton of a strong man in the immortal way, and it has an exotic atmosphere," the witch Liu raised her eyebrows slightly.

I don't know how long this pile of bones has been burned. Judging from the remaining coercion, it is very likely that they are the bones of immortals from other lands.

In addition to this pile of flames, there is a pile of such flames at a distance outside the city, locked in the magic circle.

Even the bones of the immortal powerhouses have to be used and burned to release the divine power and give full play to their final value, which shows how bad the situation in this primitive imperial city is.

"I don't know how many people are still in the city," Xu Yu thought to himself.

The traces of battle left on this continent have been a long, long time ago. I don't know if there are still alien creatures attacking this city.

Suddenly, he looked up and saw a few small figures appearing on the tower of the original imperial city.

"Xiao Yu, there are children up there." The witch also looked up the tower, and several small figures came into view.

They were a few children in ragged clothes, ranging from eight or nine years old to fifteen or sixteen years old, with dirty faces and shabby clothes.

In addition, a few old people came out from behind these children. They were very weak, as if they had been seriously injured, and their origin was damaged. They were looking down solemnly.

Seeing this scene, Xu Yu and the witch looked at each other, and the words "old, weak, sick and disabled" came to mind.

Seeing that there were still people alive in this primitive imperial city, Xu Yu and the witch were a little pleasantly surprised, but also sad that there were only so few people left.

Obviously, they are not doing well here, and their blood is about to wither completely.

"The descendants of the God King..." On the tower, an old man stared at Xu Yu, looked at the bright red line between his brows, and spoke with difficulty, a gleam of brilliance appeared in his cloudy old eyes.

"The descendants of the God King?"

Hearing the old man's address to Xu Yu, the witch was a little surprised. Among the Seven Kings of Bianhuang, there was a strong man named God King. No wonder the pattern on Xu Yu's forehead was a divine character, which did not represent a surname.

Then, Xu Yu's lineage is not the so-called god race, but the human race, and the god king is just the title of that king.

"Senior, are you all right?"

Seeing the one-armed old man, who was already so old that he was dying, but still guarding the tower, Xu Yu sighed softly.

On the city wall, those children were unkempt, looking down with vigilance.

Their faces are numb, and only the depths of their eyes reveal a ray of curiosity. They are not as innocent and lively as children should be. It is conceivable how harsh the environment here must be.

The witch quietly held Xu Yu's hand. She knew that although Xu Yu didn't show it, he was sad.

Not only Xu Yu, but even her eyes are sore, this place is too cruel for these little ones, even children from ordinary families are hundreds of times better than them.

"Child, as you can see, it's still alive, it's fine," the old man said hoarsely, perhaps because he hadn't spoken for a long time.

Plain words, revealing the heart-rending helplessness and sadness.

"However, how did you come here? If outsiders want to enter this place, they need at least a cultivation level of a true immortal. You..."

The one-armed old man continued, his expression had become alert, and he showed a bronze halberd.

"Don't be nervous, old man. Since only true immortals can enter this place, why can't we be true immortals?" the witch said with a smile.

The witch's sweet voice and pretty face inevitably made people feel a little good, but the people on the tower still didn't let go of their vigilance.

"Girl, do you think we're easy to deceive? You don't look very old, and you probably haven't even reached the age of a hundred. How could you be a real fairy? It's too unbelievable."

The one-armed old man shook his head, feeling more and more that there was something wrong with the two of them.

Seeing that the one-armed old man shook his head and started to be hostile towards them, Xu Yu and the witch looked at each other, a little dumbfounded, this old man was really vigilant and never let go of any suspicious things.
