"King of the Northern Border?" Sasha furrowed her brow, avoiding Ye Kunlun's gaze. "I don't know any King of the Northern Border. As long as the Black Jackal didn't take the thing, I don't care whose person he is."
Ye Kunlun smiled. Sasha was clearly lying.
"The King of the Northern Border lived in the Northern Border War Zone for many years. You were born in the Barbarian tribe, didn't you see him?" Ye Kunlun asked with a smile.
Sasha shook her head, her expression a little unsightly. "I'm sorry, sir. I'm on my period, and I'm feeling a bit unwell. I'll go back to my room to rest."
After speaking, Sasha went upstairs to her room without waiting for Ye Kunlun's reply.
Ye Kunlun put away his smile and narrowed his eyes.
Sasha's expression could not hide from her, especially when she was substituting for the King of the Northern Border; she clearly showed some emotional fluctuation.
Ye Kunlun mused that Sasha seemed to have an unclear relationship with the King of the Northern Border.
Midnight.
Ye Kunlun quietly left his residence, turning into a shadow, merging with the night, and heading straight for the barbarian territory.
According to the map Sasha gave him, the Barbarian Temple was located northeast of the barbarian territory, about thirty kilometers from the border with Huaxia!
At Ye Kunlun's speed, he could reach it in a few breaths. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
However, for some reason, the barbarians could detect any non-barbarian who set foot on their territory.
In the marshland, under the cover of night.
Ye Kunlun gazed in the direction of the barbarians. A strand of hair appeared in his hand, which he had taken from Sasha when she wasn't paying attention.
The power of the Myriad Ancient Starry Sky Art gathered in his hand, and the strand of Sasha's hair was directly swallowed by the power of the Myriad Ancient Starry Sky Art.
At the same time, Ye Kunlun's aura changed.
If Sasha were here, she would surely be shocked and widen her eyes.
Because Ye Kunlun's aura was exactly the same as hers, and even more like that of a barbarian.
Ye Kunlun's body flickered slightly, and he disappeared from the marshland, stepping into the barbarian territory.
He did not linger, heading straight for the temple.
—
Northeast of the barbarian territory, a black, ancient, and mysterious building emitted a faint, cold black light under the vast sky. It was the most sacred temple of the barbarians.
It seemed that just one glance would devour the soul.
Before the temple, two black, transparent shadows floated there, like two lingering souls.
If one did not look carefully, the black shadows would almost blend into the night, making them difficult to spot.
Hoo—
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept by, and the two shadows flickered uncertainly, their eyes lighting up with a faint green glow.
"Who dares to trespass upon the temple?"
The divine shadow guard on the left spoke, transforming into a black flame and charging forward!
Ye Kunlun unleashed a punch, and his terrifying power struck the divine shadow guard, directly scattering him into nothingness.
Ye Kunlun was extremely fast. He knew that if he wanted to break into the temple, he had to act quickly!
The other divine shadow guard, seeing his companion annihilated, was about to make a move when Ye Kunlun arrived before him.
A trace of fear appeared on the divine shadow guard's face.
The temple was located in the deepest part of the barbarian territory. No one entering the barbarian territory could escape the barbarians' detection, let alone the gods' perception!
Yet, Ye Kunlun had appeared before the temple so silently.
Looking at the divine shadow guard with a face full of shock and fear, Ye Kunlun curled his lips into a cold smile.
The next moment, Ye Kunlun's divine sense directly drilled into the opponent's soul!
"If you don't want to die, then listen obediently!"
Ye Kunlun transmitted his voice to the opponent's divine sense. The temple was full of unknowns. If he could keep a divine shadow guard obedient, it would save him a lot of trouble.
However, the divine shadow guard's eyes lost their fear, and he turned to flee into the temple.
"If you want to be scattered into nothingness, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Ye Kunlun raised his eyebrows, and his divine sense directly dispersed the opponent.
After dealing with the two divine shadow guards, Ye Kunlun stood before the temple.
On his way here, he had scouted the area and found no barbarians within ten miles of the temple!
Everything was filled with an eerie mystery.
Ye Kunlun surveyed the ink-black temple before him, and a wave of dizziness suddenly came from his sea of consciousness.
His expression changed slightly, and two streaks of green light flashed in his eyes, instantly clearing his sea of consciousness.
"This temple is filled with mystery!"
Ye Kunlun thought to himself, almost losing his consciousness with just a single glance.
Looking at the open grand door, Ye Kunlun flashed to the entrance.
On the door, two ferocious beasts, entirely black, were baring their fangs and claws. To Ye Kunlun's surprise, the ferocious beasts had four eyes.
For a moment, Ye Kunlun had the illusion of connecting the four-eyed beasts on the door with the Four-Eyed Buddha in the Tibetan Buddhist Cave.
Even, he felt as if the two ferocious beasts on the door were alive!
The next second, a sense of crisis arose in Ye Kunlun's heart.
A black claw extended from the left door and swiftly clawed towards Ye Kunlun's chest!
Ye Kunlun reacted extremely quickly, dodging the attack.
At the same time, lightning flickered in his hand, and he unleashed a lightning blade towards the robust, faintly glowing claw!
Ye Kunlun had already realized that the ferocious beasts on the door, like the divine shadow guards, were spiritual entities!
Since they were spiritual entities, the best way to deal with them was through lightning techniques!
The lightning blade cut through, and the black claw emitted a sizzling sound of scorching and corrosion, quickly retracting.
Concurrently, Ye Kunlun seemed to hear an enraged roar from a ferocious beast.
The left door flashed with black light, and a massive head emerged from within.
Its dark fur was filled with a mysterious aura, and its eyes were as large as bronze bells, resembling stone lions in ancient carvings, but with a narrow mouth, making it look like a wolf.
Its bronze-bell-sized eyes were incredibly sharp, as if they could pierce through the thoughts of any creature.
Following that, the black ferocious beast stepped out with two sharp claws, moving rapidly from the door, exuding a chilling aura that made one tremble.
At its feet, it had four sharp, developed claws, enough to easily tear through the ground.
Ye Kunlun looked coldly at the ferocious beast emerging from the door, recalling an ancient tome he had seen in the library of Kunlun Void that recorded various beasts.
Tomb Guardian Beast!
The aura and appearance of the ferocious beast before him bore some resemblance to a certain tomb guardian beast described in the ancient tome!
"Could it be that this barbarian temple is actually a massive tomb?"
Ye Kunlun had a suspicion in his heart, as tomb guardian beasts were only placed within tombs!
However, the current situation did not allow Ye Kunlun to think much.
The tomb guardian beast had completely emerged from the door, exuding a terrifyingly chilling aura. Its black fur was glossy and lustrous, like black flames.
Its pair of faintly green, bronze-bell-sized eyes stared intently at Ye Kunlun with ferocity.
Roar—
The tomb guardian beast let out a low growl at Ye Kunlun and lunged at him like a black shadow!
"Lightning, come!"
Ye Kunlun shouted coldly, and a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly at the tomb guardian beast!
The tomb guardian beast knew that Ye Kunlun's lightning techniques were potent. Fortunately, its speed was extremely fast, and it deftly dodged his attack.
Leaping to the left and right, the tomb guardian beast, like a black lightning bolt, found an opportunity and pounced at Ye Kunlun again…
