Both of them mobilized their True Force at the same time to suppress the melancholy.
They both knew that once they get caught up in the sorrowful music and began crying, it meant they were under its control, and the crying would never stop, leading them to cry themselves to death.
Behind the massive city walls of the Towering Giant City, Xiao Mu and Tian Xiang couldn't see the scene inside the city. Still, they guessed that inside the city, countless grey ghosts were floating in the air, forcefully lifting a massive blood-red coffin, slowly progressing towards the city gate with the funeral music.
"Tai Bo is coming!"
"Haha! Tai Bo is coming!"
"Tai Bo is coming, let's see how long this human can remain arrogant."
Tai Bo!
Hearing the surprised cries of the Zombie Horde inside the Towering Giant City, a thought arose in Xiao Mu's heart.
The one who was speaking turned out to be Tai Bo, the Ancient Zombie that had been mentioned continuously.
He had been prepared and was not surprised.
"Mr. Mu, Tai Bo is the strongest in Towering Giant City next to King Dayang. It is said that his strength may have already broken through the later stage to reach the Peak Stage. Please be careful when dealing with him," Tian Xiang flew over, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Mu while warning him to be careful.
"I know."
Xiao Mu nodded, not revealing any sign of panic.
If he wasn't confident in taking on Tai Bo, he wouldn't have dared to accept Tian Xiang's commission and come to the Ferocious Tomb.
The funeral music grew closer, and from within the city walls, cheerful sounds of respectful greetings arose, "Greetings, Tai Bo!"
"Good to see you, Tai Bo!"
"Bow to Tai Bo!"
The old voice didn't pay any attention to these low rank zombies, instead it calmly said to the Ancient Crown, "Ancient Crown, since others want to come in, why not indulge them? Open the city gate and let him in."
Tai Bo issued the command, his tone remaining calm, showing no fear for Xiao Mu. He seemed well prepared, instructing the Ancient Zombie and the Ancient Crown to open the city gate.
"Yes, Tai Bo!"
The Ancient Zombie, Ancient Crown, followed Tai Bo's instructions, waved above the City Gate, and loud ordered, "Open the city gate."
"Yes!"
From inside the city gate came the joyful cries of regular zombies, who promptly started carrying out the order.
Squeak!
The massive and heavy city gate was slowly opened.
As soon as the city gate opened, the breath of death from the back of the gate hit Xiao Mu and Tian Xiang.
This breath of death could easily turn an ordinary Fourth Realm Mutated Being into a zombie but had no effect on Xiao Mu and Tian Xiang.
"Humans, you wanted to open the city gate, we have fulfilled your wish. You... dare you come in?"
The ancient zombie jumped down from the city gate, slid in the air, and landed inside the gate, looking at Xiao Mu from a distance.
His tone was full of provocations, and his lifeless face had a smile that showed ill-intent.
Several ordinary zombies quickly ran out from the gate and stood on both sides, grinning at Xiao Mu and Tian Xiang.
The arrival of Tai Bo gave these zombies complete courage, no longer fear of Xiao Mu and Tian Xiang, viewing both as already dead.
"Humans, come in! Didn't you want to come in? How are you? Can't you dare to come in?"
The ordinary zombies began to mock Xiao Mu, clearly revealing their innate cruelty.
With the arrival of Tai Bo, the interior of the Towering Giant City seemed to have become hell, swallowing all living beings that entered it.
Xiao Mu was not affected by the provocations of ordinary zombies, but calmly looked into the city.
He finally saw the scene inside the city gates.
The interior of the Towering Giant City was also incredibly large but had no buildings. All that could be seen were several significant squares, similar to farmers' threshing grounds.
In these squares, there were piles of flesh. It was unbearably putrid, and many human heads were casually thrown aside, grotesque and eerie.
It was simply a slaughterhouse filled with bloodshed and cruelty.
However, Xiao Mu's gaze soon fell on an ancient giant coffin made of blood-colored rotten wood, which was located in the middle of the square opposite the city gate.
It was different from what he had guessed.
Only four people were carrying the coffin, and from their released aura, these four were undoubtedly Mutated Beings from the human world and strongmen of the Fifth Realm. They were turned into Corpse Puppets by Secret Arts and were full of intense Death Qi.
These four were wearing different clothes, one of them was an old man in a Taoist robe carrying a Treasure Sword. One could still see the giant Tai Chi Diagram on his dirty Taoist Robe.
Another was an Old Monk, the old monk's Kasaya was emitting Golden Light, and similarly was worn and dirty.
The third man was a Confucius scholar in Confucius shirts, with a scholarly manner, still maintained his delicate demeanor even after being turned into a Corpse Puppet.
The last one was a middle-aged king who still had the dignity of a high-ranking individual.
These four men carrying the coffin were a Taoist, a monk, a scholar, and a king, representing all cultures of the Ancient Central Land. It was a sight resembling four saints carrying a coffin, showing that the person in the coffin was not just anyone.
The giant coffin, its lid always on top, even if the city gate was opened, showed no signs of being opened, which showed extreme endurance.
"This is Tai Bo, an expert in Gold and Fire Dual Forces, who has practiced the Eight Trigrams Furnace Strange Technique, an advanced technique, and is extremely powerful. Mr. Mu, you must be extremely careful. The reason I commissioned you is because of this old man," warned Tian Xiang again while introducing Tai Bo who was in the giant coffin.
"Humans, weren't you extremely arrogant? Why aren't you coming in? Are you scared?"
"Haha! If you're scared, hurry up and roll off, roll back from where you came from!"
"Nonsense! Now that he's here, can he still leave? It's not up to him anymore if he wants to leave."
