Words:2084Update:22/08/07 13:51:16
Black fog billowed and ghosts howled.
Everyone who had just crossed the Bridge of Life and Death felt as if they had fallen into the deepest hell.
"This place is strange and unpredictable. We can't be careless."
Gu Changqing unsheathed his sword and guarded the periphery with Xiao Meng, Jiang Zhiwei, and Luo Shengyi. Zhang Yuanshan was the backup team to support the periphery at any time.
After getting into formation, everyone moved forward cautiously.
"Gah!"
The black fog in front of them churned, and a ghastly figure rushed out of the black fog with a strange cry, pouncing towards the group.
Seeing this figure, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
It was a zombie.
It had a green face and fangs, and its skin had a faint bronze luster.
It was a Bronze-armored Zombie!
It was invulnerable, extremely strong, and cruel.
They had just entered the tomb, and they had already encountered such a powerful zombie. What would be in the depths of the tomb?
There was no time to think now.
"Clang …"
The sword light whizzed through the air. Behind Gu Changqing, four sword lights appeared like a peacock spreading its tail. He swung his sword, and the sharp Sword Qi tore through the air.
"Eh?"
As he swung his sword, Gu Changqing suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart.
It was as if … he could already see all the changes and the final result of the Bronze-armored Zombie's attack.
"Tear my throat with your left claw, and dig my heart with your right claw."
Although this feeling was inexplicable, Gu Changqing chose to believe in his intuition. Gu Changqing swung his sword slightly. The moment the Bronze-armored Zombie attacked, Gu Changqing's sword blocked its attack.
"It works."
Following this feeling, Gu Changqing's sword-light scattered, and it was very easy for him.
No matter how hard the Bronze-armored Corpse tried to attack, Gu Changqing's sword sealed off all its paths of retreat. It couldn't advance even an inch.
"This ability … should have something to do with the inheritance of the Prime of Tongtian. 'The End of the Era' is the end of everything. Now that I have shown a trace of divine power, I can see through the changes of the enemy's attack and see the final result. "
He could see the final change of the enemy's attack as soon as it made a move. It was so easy to deal with it.
If Gu Changqing did not want to test this ability more, the Bronze-armored Zombie would have been killed by his sword.
"Roar! Roar! "
At this moment, another wave of roars rang out from the surroundings. It seemed that many corpses and evil creatures were charging over.
"I can't play anymore!"
Gu Changqing's sword trembled. The moment the copper-armored corpse opened its mouth to roar, Gu Changqing's sword pierced through its skull, killing it in one strike.
"Roar …"
A monster covered in green will-o '-the-wisps roared as it charged out of the black mist.
It was a humanoid monster.
Dark green will-o '-the-wisps surged, emitting a scorching heat that could even ignite one's Divine Soul.
"Corpsefire! There's actually such a monster? "
Gu Changqing was shocked. He raised his sword and was about to attack, but Xiao Meng had already attacked.
"Slash!"
The Rushing Thunder Saber gave off strands of electric light as it chopped down at the Corpse Fire Ghost.
This slash … was extremely strange.
From Gu Changqing's point of view, Xiao Meng's attack was not meant to block the zombie fire monster, nor was it meant to attack its vital parts. It was just a random attack without any technique.
But … Killing Blade Su Meng had extraordinary bladesmanship. Would he attack without any technique? There must be a reason for this slash.
What happened next confirmed Gu Changqing's conjecture.
The random slash landed on the flaming corpse monster's arm.
"Boom!"
After this ordinary and random slash hit the zombie fire monster, the zombie fire in its body seemed to have been ignited. It exploded instantly and burned the zombie fire monster to ashes.
"The beginning of everything!"
Gu Changqing could sense the true meaning of Xiao Meng's slash.
Little Meng had seen through the original "source" of the Corpsefire Monster's attack. Then, he struck the "source" with his saber and instantly killed the Half-step Exterior Scenery monster.
"Xiao Meng, what kind of exotic minerals and produce did you eat? How did you become so strong? "
Xiao Meng's ability to kill the zombie fire monster with one slash shocked the others.
"I had a fortuitous encounter."
Xiao Meng chuckled and did not elaborate.
Of course, the others did not probe into Xiao Meng's "fortuitous encounter". They were just a little surprised by Xiao Meng's improvement.
In fact, Xiao Meng and Gu Changqing's ability had nothing to do with the impartation in the Immortals.
The real reason was the blood-colored peach.
Li Yu had broken down the Great Way of Time in the bloody peach and integrated the beginning of the world and the end of the era into their Genuine Spirits. This gave their Genuine Spirits some of the characteristics of the Nirvana Realm.
Although they were limited by their cultivation and could not use the Heavenly Knowing of the Nirvana Realm, there were still some intrinsically magical aspects.
They could see the "origin" of the enemy's moves and the "end" of the enemy's moves. These were only a little of the characteristics of the Nirvana Realm.
With Xiao Meng and Gu Changqing clearing the way, the journey was very smooth.
Although there were still many ghosts attacking them along the way, they were easily killed by Xiao Meng and Gu Changqing as soon as they appeared.
"Killing Half-step Exterior Scenery masters is like killing chickens and dogs."
The others, who were following behind the two of them, couldn't get a chance to make a move. They couldn't believe the two's might.
How many months had it been? Their strength had skyrocketed to such a level?
"Unfortunately, this record can't be made public. Otherwise, you would all be in the top few of the Ranking List of Young Masters. "
Luo Shengyi praised and shook his head.
"The Ranking List of Young Masters?"
Gu Changqing and Xiao Meng looked at each other and shook their heads with a smile.
Now they were dealing with Immortals. They did not care about the Ranking List of Young Masters anymore.
They kept going deeper into Zhenwu's tomb.
A huge palace appeared in front of them.
It was majestic and quaint! It was deep and dark!
A vast and mighty aura spread out. It was as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on his body, making it hard for him to breathe.
"That's … Zhenwu Great Emperor!"
Zhang Yuanshan pointed at the wall outside the palace and shouted in shock.
There were murals carved on the outer wall of the palace.
In the murals, there was a stalwart man wearing a black gold robe and a Flat Heaven Crown. He held a turtle-snake long sword, a silk belt, and hemp shoes. His face was thin and his aura was majestic.
The murals were all scenes of this man suppressing evil spirits.
"No wonder he's the Demon-Destroying Patriarch of the Ninth Heaven, Xuanming Zhenwu Great Emperor."
The heavy pressure they had felt before was only because of the statue of Zhenwu Great Emperor.
If a mere portrait could possess such divine might, how terrifying would it be if the real person were to appear in person?
"This must be Zhenwu Great Emperor's tomb."
Gu Changqing looked at the palace in front of them with a solemn expression. "Zhenwu Great Emperor's power is overwhelming. The tomb of such a person must be very magical. We have to be very careful. "
They slowly climbed the stairs of the palace and came to the door.
The door was tightly shut.
Standing in front of the door, they felt a surge of endless coldness, making them shiver.
It was already so scary before they even entered. What would happen after?
