The murderous aura surged like a tide, gathering from all directions, swift and fierce like a hundred rivers returning to the stream.
When the murderous aura swept past, Zheng Tuo and the other three felt a chill and could not help but shiver. But when they thought of Chen Zong being able to absorb the murderous aura, they had to endure it.
Otherwise, if the murderous aura was not removed, the fifty corpses would be like fish in water, and it would be very disadvantageous to the five of them.
As the murderous aura entered his body, Chen Zong also felt a chill invade his body, like the edge of a sword raging through his body, making Chen Zong extremely uncomfortable. But unknowingly, it also increased Chen Zong's ability to withstand the murderous aura.
Although the murderous aura was very fierce and impure, it was nothing to the Asura doppelganger Chen Xiu. The Burning Asura Skill immediately refined, purified, and absorbed the murderous aura into holy aura, continuously increasing his cultivation.
The murderous aura had been accumulating for many years and was very majestic. Even after refining most of the impure aura, the remaining pure aura was very shocking.
Chen Zong estimated that after refining all the murderous aura here, his Asura doppelganger's cultivation would increase.
Seeming to feel the murderous aura diminishing, the corpses instinctively felt that something was wrong and became violent.
Roar roar roar!
Violent roars sounded again and again as the corpses madly charged. They felt that the source of the diminishing murderous aura was there.
Only by killing that person could they stop the diminishing of the murderous aura. Suddenly, Zheng Tuo and the other three felt the pressure increase.
But no matter how great the pressure was, they had to hold on. Otherwise, if they disturbed Chen Zong and prevented him from absorbing the murderous aura, they would fall into the same predicament as before.
They could only hope that Chen Zong would finish absorbing the murderous aura as soon as possible.
After a while, the murderous aura had mostly disappeared and the corpses became even more violent.
Zheng Tuo and the other three surrounded Chen Zong, resisting the attacks of the frenzied corpses.
Zheng Tuo was no longer empty-handed. With a heavy saber in his hand, he used both hands to create a violent hurricane. Every stroke of the saber burst forth with shocking power, extremely violent.
Looking at this saber technique, the Wild Slash lived up to its name.
Nan Wu Kong's finger technique was astonishing. Every finger was as sharp as a sword, shining with a blood-colored light. It left streaks of blood in the air, shocking to the eye.
Lin Yi's sword technique was indeed superb. The sword light was extremely dazzling, and every single sword strike was extremely profound. Moreover, it even contained a type of indescribable emptiness, and every single sword strike was lethal.
With Jackdaw's short bow in hand, he continued to fire black arrows at the oncoming corpses, forcing them back one by one.
The prodigies of the Netherworld Roll were very powerful. If it had been an ordinary high-level Half-Saint, he would have been killed by the Fiendish Corpses long ago.
As the baleful aura decreased, the corpses became more and more violent. Chen Zong continued to absorb the baleful aura, and the cultivation of the Asura avatar also gradually increased.
Mid First Heaven Saint Realm!
"Chen Zong, are you done yet?" Lin Yi roared in a low voice. The pressure brought by the Fiend Corpses was getting stronger and stronger. Gradually, he felt that he could not hold on any longer.
"Wait a moment." Chen Zong's reply was brief.
The last of the baleful aura was absorbed into his body, and the hall instantly became clear again. The Asura avatar's cultivation also broke through in an instant.
Late First Heaven Saint Realm!
It was not easy to raise one's cultivation in the Saint Realm. It usually required a lot of effort, energy, and time.
Being able to break through from the early to late First Heaven Saint Realm was a great gain.
Disregarding everything else, just the increase in the cultivation of the Asura avatar was a great gain for Chen Zong. At the very least, he had saved several years of cultivation time, and his life-saving trump card had become more powerful.
After the baleful aura entered his body, his ability to withstand the baleful aura had also increased greatly. In the future, when he borrowed the power of the Asura avatar, he would be able to bear the burden better.
The Gilded Mountainous Sword trembled, and a dull sound rang out. Sword qi swept through the air, instantly sending a few Fiend Corpses flying.
With the disappearance of the baleful aura, everyone felt a lot more comfortable. Chen Zong's participation in the battle also relieved the pressure on the four of them. Without the baleful aura, the Fiend Corpses also lost a little bit of their advantage.
The one hundred and fifty kilogram Gilded Mountainous Sword was extremely terrifying. Chen Zong had completely unleashed its power, and every strike was overbearing.
Slash, slash, slash!
The sword light was endless, and a golden light streaked across the sky. Even though the sword was extremely heavy, weighing one hundred and fifty kilograms, Chen Zong's strength was even more powerful. His control of the sword and his own strength was so high that the weight of the sword did not affect him in the slightest.
After a few consecutive slashes, the hard skin and body of the Fiend Corpses were instantly cut in half.
Without the baleful aura, the Fiend Corpses would not be able to recover quickly once they were injured, and their advantage was not obvious.
The five of them brought out their respective strengths, and under their joint efforts, the Fiend Corpses were killed one after another. Subconsciously, the five of them also secretly competed to see who could kill more Fiend Corpses.
Half an hour later, all fifty Fiend Corpses were killed.
Among them, Chen Zong had killed twelve, Zheng Tuo had killed thirteen, Nan Wukong had killed eleven, Lin Yi had killed eight, and Jackdaw had killed six.
Chen Zong killed twelve. This caused Nan Wukong's eyes to narrow, and they seemed even narrower. Lin Yi, on the other hand, looked somewhat displeased. Jackdaw, on the other hand, did not look strange at all. Or rather, even if there was something strange, it would not be obvious.
Immediately, the five of them also quickly checked.
The fifty stone coffins were completely opened, the baleful aura had disappeared, and the fifty Fiend Corpses had all been killed. Then what next?
If they could not find another door, could they only leave?
Leave with nothing?
Just as everyone was puzzled, a strong wave of energy seemed to appear from nowhere. The five of them immediately gathered their strength, and were extremely vigilant.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk …" A hoarse, gloomy, and sharp strange laughter suddenly sounded. It was incomparably ear-piercing, like rusty iron pieces crazily rubbing against each other, causing one to feel extremely uncomfortable. Immediately, a gust of cold wind swept up and whistled. A faint figure also appeared in the vast hall.
This figure seemed to be shrouded in a black robe and had a very mysterious appearance, as if it was a projection from another world. When this black-robed figure appeared, a terrifying pressure filled the air.
It was as cold and gloomy as hell, as majestic and powerful as a mountain.
This figure was extremely terrifying and was definitely a master among the Saint Realm masters, causing all five of them to feel a fatal crisis.
"Senior, how should we address you?" As the leader, Lin Yi was the first to speak, carefully asking.
"This Senior is Corpse Bone Daoist," the black figure replied. The black shadow spoke. His hoarse and sharp voice was still so ear-piercing, but it still shocked everyone.
Chen Zong did not feel much, after all, he had never heard this name before, but the other four, including Jackdaw, all shivered.
"Corpse … Corpse Daoist …" Lin Yi was tongue-tied as he spoke. He was very shocked and even a little frightened.
Chen Zong didn't know about the Corpse Daoist's reputation, but they did. The Corpse Daoist was a super expert ranked in the top ten of the Profound Ranking. His reputation was not good, but evil.
Other than Chen Zong, who was a newcomer, many people in the entire Mysterious Nether Territory knew of the Corpse Daoist's ferocity and terror.
Anyone who could be ranked on the Profound Ranking had terrifying strength, and the strength of the top ten was even more shocking.
"Don't be nervous. If this Senior wanted to kill you, you wouldn't be standing here in one piece," the Corpse Daoist's figure laughed.
However, everyone could not help but feel their hair stand on end. Even though Chen Zong did not know of the Corpse Daoist's ferocity, he still felt his heart palpitate.
It seemed that if the Corpse Daoist wanted them dead, none of them would be able to survive.
Even the Mysterious Nether Palace had to be wary of the Corpse Daoist, who was infamous for killing.
"You're lucky to be able to find a cave mansion that this Senior left here," the Corpse Daoist's figure said again. "I have left a great opportunity in here, but whether you can get it or not depends on whether you can pass the test I set for you." The mysterious figure of the Corpse Priest said again. His voice was still as ear-piercing as ever.
Everyone's breathing quickened when they heard about the opportunity.
An opportunity left by a top ten master of the Profound Ranking was definitely extraordinary.
After the Corpse Daoist's figure finished speaking, he disappeared as if he had never appeared. That terrifying aura also disappeared without a trace.
"Who is the Corpse Daoist?" Chen Zong still asked.
"You don't know the Corpse Daoist?" Lin Yi asked.
"The Corpse Daoist is a super master ranked eighth on the Profound Ranking, and he is also a rogue cultivator. He is temperamental. If it's light, he will kill someone, and if it's heavy, he will destroy a sect. His strength is extremely powerful, and even the Mysterious Nether Palace does not want to provoke him," Zheng Tuo said calmly.
"As far as I know, the Corpse Daoist obtained a great opportunity in his early years. It seems to be called the Corpse Dao Inheritance. That's how he became known as the Corpse Daoist," Nan Wukong added.
Chen Zong was shocked when he heard that.
The Mysterious Underworld Ranking in the Mysterious Nether Territory was actually the shadow of the Profound Ranking. It was even more difficult to be ranked on the Profound Ranking than the Underworld Ranking.
The eighth on the Profound Ranking was an amazing ranking. It was impossible to estimate how powerful he was. He was definitely many times more powerful than Wine Sage.
Most importantly, the Corpse Daoist was a rogue cultivator. He had no ties, and his strength was so terrifying that no one wanted to provoke him. After all, if they provoked such an expert, they would not be able to kill him instantly. Instead, they would be targeted for revenge.
Anyone would tremble in fear if they were targeted by an extremely powerful expert. Even a powerful force like the Mystic Nether Palace would be worried and fearful.
After all, the Mysterious Nether Palace was large and had many members. However, there were very few people who could fight with an expert like the Corpse Daoist. There were only two or three of them in the entire Mysterious Nether Palace.
Could it be that these experts did not cultivate and only protected the others in the Mysterious Nether Palace?
That was impossible.
According to them, the reason why the Corpse Daoist could be ranked in the top ten of the Profound Ranking and no one dared to provoke him in the Mysterious Nether Territory was not only because of his strength, but also because of his corpse puppets.
The Corpse Dao that the Corpse Daoist inherited was very unique. It could refine corpse puppets. It was rumored that the Corpse Daoist had nine terrifying corpse puppets whose strength had reached the peak of the Saint Rudiment Realm. They were not afraid of pain and death. If they joined forces with the Corpse Daoist, their strength would be even more terrifying.
Everyone was looking forward to what kind of opportunity the Corpse Daoist would leave behind.
The Corpse Dao Inheritance?
It should not be. What could it be?
