Volume 1 Lin Yuan Chapter 137: Underground Tomb
A faint golden light shone from the sword, illuminating the road ahead. The farthest point in sight was still pitch black, with only thick miasma swirling.
Using sword techniques to control the six swords to clear a path ahead, Wang Chen strode forward.
This tunnel is deep and winding. I don’t know how long I have been running in it. The ground is no longer the soft black mud. Instead, it is hard rock. It is flat and smooth, and there are even traces of human excavation.
Wang Chen was secretly alert in his heart, slowed down his pace, and released his spiritual awareness in all directions.
Under the cover of his spiritual sense, he felt that the further he walked, the wider the underground cave became. After walking another hundred feet, even his huge spiritual sense was unable to get a glimpse of the entire picture of this underground passage.
Crack! Suddenly, things moving in groups of three or two appeared in his consciousness.
They were some mummies. I don't know if they were the ancient cultivators who died in the ancient immortal battlefield. When their dry bones touched the ground, there was a sound of metal collision. Their bones were as hard as steel.
Bang bang bang!
The sound of a hammer hitting the ground came as dense as raindrops.
These extremely agile mummies smelled the breath of living creatures, and two balls of green fire suddenly lit up in their eyes as they pounced towards Wang Chen.
A flash of sword light flashed across, illuminating the bottomless underground passage, and quickly disappeared.
A large number of mummies were chopped into two pieces, and a faint energy spread out.
Even these low-level corpse puppets have a much thicker corpse aura than the zombies from the outside world.
"This is a mutated Yuanling Qi!" Wang Chen's mind moved. Even the lowest level corpse puppets were infected, which meant that there was probably a large number of Yuanling stones here.
His spiritual awareness further expanded, and the entire picture of this area slowly emerged in his mind. He felt that the underground were like tree roots, with thousands of passages crisscrossing and extremely complex.
The miasma was everywhere, and after a long period of pollution, a layer of dark green ice had condensed everywhere, which contained a strong poison. Even if it was a master who was ten times stronger than Wang Chen, without the protection of his ancestral qi and immunity to all poisons, he would probably have no choice but to retreat.
Otherwise, if you are corroded by the miasma and encounter other dangers, you will surely die.
After carefully sensing for a moment, Wang Chen walked towards a passage in the middle.
This passage still retains traces of the energy that controls the strange tree, and he must find the target before this energy dissipates in the miasma.
The golden sword energy kept flashing, and Wang Chen ran wildly in the deep passage.
There are more and more mummies, appearing in groups. Among them there are even mummies with physiques as strong humans. Their bodies are pitch black, with skin and bones of iron. They are only one step away from being the corpse kings from the outside world.
Such powerful ancient corpses roamed in groups in the underground world of this ancient immortal battlefield, and were killed one by one by Wang Chen like mowing the grass.
call!
Suddenly, two blue lights appeared in front of him, followed by a howling wind, and a ball of overwhelming blue flames rushed towards Wang Chen.
The flames lit up a large area.
A corpse with tattered clothes still on , driving a cold flame towards him.
This blue flame had no temperature at all, but it smelled fishy and was a poisonous flame. The powerful cultivation of this corpse ghost combined with this highly poisonous flame would kill even a cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Condensation.
A sword energy shield lit up around him, and Wang Chen instantly dispersed the blue fire.
Amid the crisp sound of swords, a crescent-shaped sword energy flew out, and the corpse ghost's eyes flashed red, and its dry head flew into the sky. It let out a shrill scream that kept echoing, and blue flames kept spurting out from the place where its head and body were separated, and its flesh slowly turned into powder.
With a wave of his hand, a dark blue round bead flew out from the pile of powder. It was a corpse pill with four spiritual patterns on it, and there was a faint spiritual energy entwined in it. It was very valuable.
Wang Chen put the corpse pill into his storage ring, and flew out without stopping.
There were more and more mummies, and among the flying mummies there were many high-level corpse puppets, controlling ice cones and poisonous flames to attack him, but they could not penetrate the shield formed by the six sword energies. Some mummies that blocked the way were even shattered into powder by the shield.
Suddenly, Wang Chen's pace slowed down, and a huge bone demon appeared in front of him.
This bone demon was wearing tattered armor, his entire body had turned to white bones, and the gaps between his bones were filled with rotten arrows.
The strange thing is that it is huge in size and has two sharp fangs in its mouth, but it is not human.
Roar! The bone demon was startled, opened and closed its big mouth, let out a low roar, picked up the giant meteor hammer beside it and smashed it at Wang Chen.
The meteor hammer was in the air, and it was burning with flames. Its momentum was comparable to that of a foundation-building cultivator.
"Die..." This bone demon was actually able to make a low sound, obviously it had developed a low level of intelligence.
There was a flash of golden light, and a sword energy met the meteor hammer in the air.
Boom! The sparks from the collision were dazzling, and the meteor hammer broke into pieces in the air. Fragments of rusty iron flew out like cannonballs, and several mummies that pounced on it didn't know how to dodge and were blown away.
Before the huge bone demon could react to what was happening, a golden sword with mysterious Sanskrit words on it pierced out from the void and pierced his head.
The painful howls echoed deep underground. Thick black corpse gas gushed out from where the sword had pierced the bone demon. The bone demon fell to the ground on its back with a loud noise.
With a sword, Wang Chen split his huge head open and took out a huge corpse pill. This corpse pill actually already had five spiritual patterns. If it was placed in the outside world or used for exchange, it would be extremely valuable.
After putting away the corpse pill, Wang Chen continued to lock onto that trace of strange aura and flew forward. An ordinary dried corpse was not worth his time at all. He directly crushed it with his ancestral energy. Only a corpse that was comparable to the foundation-building stage was qualified to be killed with one sword and have the corpse pill taken away.
Along the way, the mummies they encountered became stronger and stronger, some of which could even block a sword energy from Wang Chen. However, they all had one thing in common: apart from some scrap copper and iron, these mummies with amazing cultivation levels did not carry any storage items, not even any valuable items.
If one, two, or even ten or twenty mummies had no storage equipment, then it would be too strange that so many corpses that were comparable to those of foundation-building cultivators also had nothing.
Could it be that someone took it away?
Who would take these things away and leave behind these corpse-like bones?
While Wang Chen was confused, he split a huge skeleton with his sword, and suddenly a faint light came from his eyes. He flashed over and found himself in a vast hall like a magnificent palace, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
This hall is nearly a hundred meters high, making people feel insignificant inside it. Countless eternal lamps spread upward along the dozens of steps that gradually rise in the middle.
Above the stairs, there is a light white mist, making it seem like a fairyland.
"Is this the energy of the Yuan Ling?!" Feeling the thick spiritual energy in the white mist, Wang Chen's heart beat violently a few times.
On the stairs, there was a huge coffin, which was completely white and surrounded by white mist. It was actually made of Yuanling Stone. Near the coffin, there was a luxurious jade table made of Yuanling Stone. There was a wine jug and several wine glasses on the table. Jade trees and jade grass were carved with Yuanling Stone all around, like a mysterious garden covered with beautiful ice crystals. People would be shocked by its holiness and beauty at first sight.
Is this a mausoleum?
