(Stiff neck, what kind of joke is this?)
Chen Zong found seven spirit gold ores of different sizes in the Nine Star Sky Sect's seventh level earth spirit realm cultivator's spatial ring, and couldn't help but feel a bit happy.
Continuing along the passageway, Chen Zong soon felt traces of fluctuations in the air, coming from afar.
"Someone's fighting." A light flashed in Chen Zong's eyes, but he didn't hesitate and continued forward.
It was normal for a battle to occur in this place, and with his background, Chen Zong naturally had the confidence to face a strong opponent. He didn't fear or hesitate.
As he moved forward, Chen Zong felt the aura become more and more obvious, and the fluctuations in the air became more and more intense. Amidst the constant fluctuations, Chen Zong felt that the passageway seemed to be shaking.
Actually, the passageway wasn't shaking, but the air was shaking. However, the magnitude of the shaking was so great that it gave Chen Zong the illusion that the passageway was shaking as well. It was enough to show the intensity of the battle and the strength of the combatants, which made Chen Zong curious.
"At least the strength of the eighth level earth spirit realm." Chen Zong said to himself.
Gradually, in addition to the increasingly powerful fluctuations of aura, Chen Zong also heard an ear-piercing sound.
"Three people are fighting …"
"It should be two against one …"
Chen Zong's hearing was very sharp, and he was able to make a judgment based on the sound.
Moreover, the momentum and fluctuations of aura let Chen Zong know that the three combatants were all at the ninth level of the earth spirit realm, and were very strong.
There was only one passageway, and Chen Zong could either continue forward or retreat. Thus, he chose to continue forward.
After a few thousand meters, Chen Zong saw an enormous cavern. There were no other forks in the cavern, and it was obviously the end.
There was a battle going on in the enormous cavern.
Just as he had judged from the sounds earlier, there were three people fighting, two against one.
No, it should be said that the two sides of the battle were two cultivators and an evil corpse.
The aura fluctuations emitted by the two cultivators were extremely tyrannical. One of them was vast and deep, carrying with it an indescribable coldness, as if it originated from the dark starry sky. It was bone-chilling.
Specks of starlight circled around this person. There were a total of nine specks of starlight, as if nine stars were shining with dazzling light. As they rotated, it was as if they were flying stars chasing after the moon, mysterious and profound.
This kind of aura allowed Chen Zong to know the other's identity. He was an earth spirit realm expert from the Nine Star Sky Sect.
The other person was tall and stalwart. His shoulders were wide and thick, as if he could carry a mountain. The aura around him was even more domineering and shocking to the extreme. Powerful sounds constantly surged out from his body, like the water of a great river rippling endlessly, surging like a raging tide, revealing the vigorous and majestic strength of this person.
Every move of this stalwart figure carried with it a tremendous amount of power that could topple mountains and overturn seas. It was violent and overbearing, as if every strike could destroy a mountain and nothing could stop it.
Chen Zong recognized him. He was one of the earth spirit realm experts from the Skyscraper Association.
The aura fluctuations of these two people allowed Chen Zong to confirm that they were ninth level earth spirit realm experts. Moreover, they weren't ordinary ninth level earth spirit realm experts, but the kind that stood at the peak of the ninth level earth spirit realm. Of course, they weren't Emperor Realm experts yet.
If they were Emperor Realm experts, they wouldn't be able to enter the Spirit Gold Secret Realm at all.
Although they weren't Emperor Realm experts, they were already at the peak of the earth spirit realm. The aura they carried with them when they attacked made Chen Zong's expression solemn and fearful. If he were to be affected by them, he would most likely be killed.
However, what made Chen Zong even more surprised was that these two people from different factions didn't fight against each other. Instead, they teamed up to fight against a strong enemy. Their strength also shocked Chen Zong.
It was an evil corpse, but it was very different from the evil corpses he had encountered before.
Although this evil corpse's skin was also greenish gray and its body looked slightly skinny, it was fuller than the evil corpses he had seen before. Although its eyes were cold and bloodthirsty, they weren't as rigid as before. Instead, they were more lively.
If it weren't for the extremely dense evil aura and the strong evil intent that was like black smoke, people might even think that it was a special person.
Another thing that made Chen Zong even more surprised was that this evil corpse was holding a rusty long sword in its right hand.
An evil corpse that knew how to use weapons!
An evil corpse that knew how to use swords!
In addition, Chen Zong could also see that although this evil corpse's movements were a bit stiff and the swords it used weren't profound or exquisite, but the charm in it couldn't be faked. He was sure that this evil corpse must have been an expert swordsman when he was alive. He must have had amazing achievements in the way of the sword. The way of the sword had long been imprinted in his bones and had become an instinct of his body.
Chen Zong stopped and stood in a corner of the cave to avoid being affected by the battle and to be able to watch the battle clearly.
No matter if it was the ninth level earth spirit realm expert of the Nine Star Sky Sect or the Skyscraper Society, not only did they possess unparalleled strength, their attainments in martial dao were unfathomable, and their battle experience was incomparably abundant. Watching them in action would be of great benefit to him.
The other thing was that although the evil corpse's swords looked simple, the meaning contained within them wasn't simple at all.
As he watched, Chen Zong was certain that this evil corpse's attainments in the way of the sword were absolutely above his own when he was alive.
Even when facing two peak earth spirit realm experts, the evil corpse hadn't been killed. It seemed to be at a disadvantage, but its body was incomparably strong as it forcefully withstood the attacks of the two. Even if it was injured, its strength wouldn't be affected in the slightest.
With two bangs, the evil corpse forcefully withstood the ferocious attacks of the two. The rusty longsword in its hand suddenly slashed out, and the blade suddenly disappeared into the air. It couldn't be seen or touched, and even its aura was concealed in an instant.
The sudden slash of the sword was completely unexpected and startled the expert of the Skyscraper Society. He only had time to strengthen his defense, but the defense was cut open as if it didn't exist. Even the inner armor of a mid rank spirit weapon couldn't withstand the sharpness of the sword.
As the longsword slashed through, the stalwart figure quickly retreated, but his tough skin was still cut open. He could feel a little of his blood being taken away.
That little bit of blood was nothing compared to the blood in his body. It was probably only about one percent of his blood. However, as the one percent of his blood was taken away and merged with the rusty longsword, the rust gradually melted away and traces of blood condensed on the blade of the sword.
In an instant, the sword seemed to have come to life, which made Chen Zong's hair stand on end. It seemed that the sword had a unique life, and the blood lines on it were just like the veins of a human.
An even more evil aura suddenly spread out from the longsword that was covered with blood lines, startling Chen Zong outside of the cave. The faces of the two experts also greatly changed.
"Nine Stars Mysterious Spirit Hand … Body Shattering!" As the expert of the Nine Stars Sky Sect waved his hand, the nine stars surrounding his body shone brightly. The starlight's veins quickly formed into a slender hand.
The Mysterious Spirit Hand of the Nine Stars Sky Sect was a very powerful martial art. The Seven Stars Mysterious Spirit Hand was the top of the earth spirit realm, while the Nine Stars Mysterious Spirit Hand was the best of the earth spirit realm.
The moves of the Nine Stars Mysterious Spirit Hand were exactly the same as the Seven Stars Mysterious Spirit Hand, but its power was many times stronger.
A palm blasted forward, shattering the sky. Everything would be shattered by this palm.
The stalwart expert of the Skyscraper Society suddenly took a deep breath. His already strong chest expanded once again, as if it was about to explode. Then, he let out a loud roar with an astonishing momentum. The airwaves were like violent waves, but also like a thunderclap.
However, this was not his attack. It was just the prelude to his attack.
After that, the stalwart figure took up a stance. As he moved, he seemed like a ferocious tiger stretching its body, like a lion stretching its muscles and bones, and also like an enormous bear taking a step forward. An incomparably forceful and overbearing aura filled the surroundings.
As soon as the stance was taken, the stalwart figure seemed to expand once again. Vaguely, one could see the shadow of a giant shrouding his body.
"Giant Spirit Fist … Giant Spirit Space Explosion!"
With a low roar, the expert of the Skyscraper Society pushed out his hand. It seemed slow, but it was incomparably fast. Moreover, it carried a terrifying aura. His palm constantly changed in an instant, like a bear's paw and a tiger's claw. In the end, it condensed into a fist.
This fist was like a meteor piercing through the sky. Its power was unparalleled.
It was an extremely violent fist that displayed its power to the extreme. At least in Chen Zong's eyes, there was no flaw to be found.
Terrifying!
Even if this fist didn't hit him, even if the wind from the fist brushed past him, it would still be enough to severely injure him.
Chen Zong's eyes focused. His gaze was sharp. He wondered if the ancient expert's evil corpse could withstand these two powerful attacks.
Based on his intuition, Chen Zong felt that it couldn't, because the attacks were simply too powerful.
Boom!
Boom! The Profound Spirit Palm shattered the sky and fiercely blasted towards the ancient expert's evil corpse. An extremely terrifying fist energy that carried an extremely shocking power also blasted towards the evil corpse.
Both of them had absolute confidence that this tyrannical killing move would be enough to shatter the other party.
Boom! Boom! Two loud sounds rang out. Countless pieces of gravel sputtered, carrying an extremely terrifying power that could easily kill an ordinary mid Earth Spirit realm expert. The entire cavern shook violently. Dust rustled down from above, as if it was about to collapse.
"Is he dead?" The Nine Star Sky Sect expert asked in a low voice. Immediately after, a sharp cold light shot out from his eyes. His eyes were like shooting stars as they landed on the imposing figure of the Skyscraper Society.
Since the powerful evil corpse had been killed, the only thing left was the battle between the two of them.
They'd met here, and both of them wanted the treasures on the other's body. One thing was for sure, the other must have a spirit gold mine. A battle was inevitable.
The imposing figure of the Skyscraper Society was the same. His tyrannical aura condensed and rushed out, directly locking onto the Nine Star Sky Sect expert.
But before the battle between the two had even begun, a black and red sword light suddenly slashed out from the dust that filled the air. The sword light was shaped like a crescent moon. It swept across, as if it could split the world in half. An astonishing killing intent and malice was contained within. As it approached, the expressions of the two experts changed.
They couldn't care less about the battle and hastily dodged the crescent moon shaped black and red sword light.
Chen Zong was also startled. Fortunately, he'd restrained his aura and stood outside the cavern. He hadn't made the slightest movement, so he hadn't been detected.
