Chapter 182

An ancient and deep voice sounded——

"Aatrox, follow the will of the emperor."

...

Chapter 87 I will carry this era, come back, my people! [8k]

The deep voice, mixed with the corrupt will into the storm, came from the ancient Shurima language, which was mixed with the curse of heaven. When Aatrox spoke, the whole sand was stained with a terrible black color, and the wind exploded, blowing all the people around over!

Absolutely terrible power!

Su Chen's eyes condensed slightly: "Has the curse eroded to this extent?"

The curse brought down by heaven, only five ascenders are left, which are the real cornerstone of Shurima. Each of them is powerful and strong-willed, especially Aatrox. With his temperament, he probably won't think of using tricks to avoid the curse. He walks in the desert, suffering from the erosion of the curse all the time, but it still hasn't knocked him down after five hundred years.

Instead, this curse is integrated into his body and gradually becomes part of his power.

Given Aatrox's current situation, if he desperately bursts out with all his strength, he might really be able to fight with Shadow without losing.

"Thank you for your hard work."

In the wind and sand, Su Chen said softly.

"But in the future, I will bear this honor."

In the simulation time of more than two thousand years, he personally led Shurima from its rise to prosperity and witnessed countless glories, but unfortunately everything was buried under the yellow sand in the end.

For Su Chen, the existence of Shurima is different from the era of the Human Emperor or the era of Cardotia. Even in the era of Rustan, he played the role of a companion and walked with that country, but even without him, Mondstadt, Liyue and Inazuma, history is still moving.

But Shurima, from its rise to its demise, has always belonged to him alone.

These people are truly his people.

If Su Chen's purpose before was simply to become powerful through simulation, then since the era of the Human Emperor, he has gradually learned to protect. The love of the demon god is not an exception. He is not a demon god, but he still loves those who believe in him.

Because he wanted to protect these people, he became powerful. Even though the simulation was over and he was behind the scenes, he was still paying attention to the places he had stayed in.

Mondstadt has stabilized, Liyue is still prosperous, and Inazuma is about to start a new journey.

Now that this piece of land is left, since he has returned, he naturally cannot let it be silent.

If this world still does not allow Shurima to exist, then he will fight for this corner of the floating world even if he breaks through the sky.

"Emperor."

Aatrox knelt on the ground.

The guardians behind him also knelt down.

Su Chen looked around, the black sand had swallowed everything, and if he stayed any longer, the entire Kawan Station would be gone.

Just appearing can cause endless disasters. Aatrox is simply a walking plague. No wonder he has never left the desert for so many years. I'm afraid he is also worried that he will be hunted down endlessly if he steps out of here.

He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that after he dies, no one can protect the last glory of Shurima.

"Let's go."

Su Chen stretched out his hand and waved, surrounded by the power of the yellow sand, and rolled up Aatrox and others.

Boom~~

The black dust exploded, making people's faces hurt. When everything dissipated, the sky gradually became clear, and only a group of people fell to the ground and wailed.

Whether it was a mercenary or a member of the Earth Fire, Seno put down his arm to resist the wind and sand. He looked up and saw that Su Chen was no longer there.

"Teacher!"

"Go, go?" Ying and Paimeng were the closest at the time, but they were directly knocked away by Aatrox's power. If they hadn't felt Su Chen's intention to protect them, the situation might have been even worse.

"What happened?" Paimeng was completely confused about the situation. "Suddenly, a storm blew up, and those people appeared and... seemed to say something? Then it turned into a black storm... Woo~ It's terrible."

Ying looked solemn: "They took Su Chen away."

She seemed to hear what that terrible guy said... She couldn't understand it. It wasn't a common language?

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

"Paimon, let's go."

"Eh?! Where to?"

"Looking for Su Chen!"

"But where should we find him?"

"Thousand Valleys Sands." Saino said in a deep voice, "Those people have been wandering in the Thousand Valleys Sands for years. There must be something about the teacher that attracts them."

His mission is to investigate the strange phenomena in the desert. The sun disk rises again, the ancient mysterious undead steps out of the desert, and the teacher who is a sage is captured. Saino vaguely feels that there must be some connection between these things.

"Let's go!"

The three immediately chased deep into the desert.

And the rest of the people, the mercenaries, got up from the ground and looked around blankly with their injuries.

"What was just now..."

"Too scary, He just came here, and I felt like I was going to stop breathing."

"The immortal undead in the desert, how could they appear here?"

"Is His Majesty the Emperor really back?"

"Let's go! Let's go to the Thousand Valleys Sands to see!"

The immortal undead, the guardian of the glory of Shurima, is only known by rumors, but now that it has really come, they know how scary it is.

Just like a demon!

At this moment, the mercenaries also rushed towards the depths of the desert, leaving behind a group of thirty people with the Earth Fire.

"Quickly report to Lord Grass God!"

...

The scorching sun burned the yellow sand, emitting an indescribable feeling of heat.

In the Thousand Valleys Sands, there were figures everywhere, near and far, and their directions were surprisingly consistent, that is, the ancient lost royal city - Narimaj.

The golden disc has risen, symbolizing the return of Shurima's past power. Compared with the possibility of the appearance of the desert emperor, more people believe that the emperor's power has returned to the world and is looking for a successor who can carry the glory of Shurima.

So, when everyone was wondering what was happening, a large number of people had already crossed the desert and entered the Thousand Valleys Sands.

"Hurry up, hurry up, you must rush to Narimaj before everyone else! The emperor's inheritance qualification must belong to us light collectors!"

"Boss, but we set off a day late, maybe the emperor's inheritance has been..."

"Bullshit! Even if someone arrives first, do you think everyone is qualified to receive the inheritance?"

In the inner area of ​​the Thousand Valleys Sands, the gilded brigades were also desperately rushing towards the direction of the sun disc.

And those who were originally closest to the center were now about to arrive outside the ancient city of Narimaj.

The towering sun disc stood in the middle of the abandoned city, with a golden glow floating on it, and the ancient runes were densely packed, showing a sacred and grand atmosphere.

Everyone's eyes were burning.

They all knew that as long as they could withstand the power of the disc, they could gain supreme power!

But the closer they got to the ancient city, the more they felt oppressed by a terrible will, making them feel difficult to move.

"I must become an ascender!"

Those who still insisted on moving towards the ancient city had such thoughts in their hearts.

Suddenly, a group of people appeared in the desert.

They were dressed in old-style clothes and walked towards Narimaj under the leadership of a woman with black hair and bronze skin.

The woman carried a cross blade on her back and looked solemn, as did all the people behind her. At this moment, they walked towards Narimaj, and the light from the golden disc reflected on them. The pressure that was originally suffocating did not appear on these people.

"They are from the village of Narimaj!"

"Why are they walking so easily?"

The silent team walked towards the ancient city, each step with piety and passion in their hearts, towards the place of former glory.

On the other side, the blonde woman carried two swords on her back and strode forward with eager anticipation in her eyes.

Swish! ——

The yellow sand descended, and Su Chen appeared in the depths of the underground palace, where the huge sky nail fell.

"The sky nail that restores order is the punishment of the sky on the earth." Su Chen's eyes were deep and far away. Deep in this familiar underground palace, his mood naturally changed. The dull air that had been closed for five hundred years was terribly oppressive.

He could feel a supreme rule power from the cold sky nail. This invisible influence was given the truth of "destruction" by the law of nature. As long as it fell, it meant that civilization would be destroyed.

"Unfortunately, my power is still unable to shake this thing, otherwise I would have to smash it."

Su Chen shook his head secretly.

Even with the decline of Shurima, the power of the Desert Emperor Template has also been affected. If he can return to his peak combat power, it will be no problem to deal with this broken nail.

Of course, it is not completely impossible.

If the Sun Disc is fully activated, the power is introduced into the Frost Sky Nail, and the power of the Dragon King is used to touch the Heavenly Principle. If the latter tries to fight against it... maybe it can kill the Heavenly Principle in one fell swoop?

It's just a thought, but the result is unpredictable. Su Chen is not stupid enough to try it casually.

Glancing at the underground palace destroyed by the Sky Nail Rule, it has been swept by the cold wave and cannot survive.

However, the ground is not greatly affected. The initial destructive power has disappeared. With a little improvement, it can be restored to its previous appearance.

Where it died, it will be revived.

This is not because Su Chen is impulsive and must choose to rebuild here, but because it has no impact. If it is really discovered by the Heavenly Principle, it will be nothing more than another Sky Nail. It will be useless to move anywhere at that time.

Su Chen stepped out of the underground palace and came under the Sun Disc.

Aatrox and the others stood respectfully below, waiting for the emperor to awaken the desert with his great power.

As his will merged into the sun disk, the golden light gradually became brighter and gradually covered the entire abandoned royal city.

Rumble~~~

The ancient disk vibrated.
