"Roar!"
A huge whirlpool appeared in the blood-colored cold pond. A ferocious beast floated up and down in the bloody water. Its entire body was pitch-black, as if it was cast from black gold. It emitted a demonic aura.
Its shape was strange, and it had three heads. The middle head was shaped like an ape, while the left and right heads were respectively a bird's head and a snake's head. Its body was like a dark horse cast from black gold. It did not have any feathers, and was covered in black scales that flickered with a metallic luster. It seemed powerful and powerful.
It was a huge beast that was more than a dozen meters long. It roared in the water, making people feel that their souls were floating, as if they were about to leave their bodies.
"Black Gold Ape? Something like this, living in the land of extreme Yin in the world. Its roar can shatter people's souls. It is an extremely powerful beast. "
Duan De shouted. He was very nervous.
This ferocious and gigantic strange beast shone with black light. Although it had three heads, only the ape head in the middle had intelligence. The bird and snake heads on the left and right could use divine abilities, but they had no thoughts of their own. The ape head in the middle was the main one, so it was called the Black Gold Ape.
But there was also a legend that the bird and snake heads that were made of black gold could also gain intelligence. Once the Black Gold Ape evolved to that level, it would be very horrifying. Unless a top fighter made a move, it would be impossible to kill it. By then, it would be very powerful.
He was very worried that the boat would turn upside down.
Since ancient times, those who excavated the tombs of the Emperors were all very careful, fearing that they would trigger some unknown danger. Cao Cao was bold enough to initiate a trap in the tomb of the Shifter Emperors. If he was not careful, the world would be turned upside down and blood would flow like a river.
"Don't worry. It is nothing. While the Shrouding Heavens World is strange, there are no real ghosts. In other worlds, when some powerful warriors are buried, they might even form a ghost realm. With thousands of ghosts and demons, that is what is truly terrifying."
Cao Cao was very calm. "Also, this is just the beginning."
"Splash, splash, splash ~"
As soon as Cao Cao's voice fell, the surface of the blood-red cold pond surged. Broken ancient chariots emerged from the blood pond, carrying Yin Soldiers. They were clad in tungsten armor that covered every part of their body. They either held a black Yin Blade or a black Hell Spear in their hands.
Among them, there were more than a dozen Daemon Generals. They were clad in dark golden battle armor, and only their heads were exposed. Their forms were extremely strange. Some had the heads of dogs, while others had the heads of tigers. It was obvious that they were daemons with a single glance, and all of them emanated a thick aura of death.
"Isn't this way too frightening? You wouldn't have lured out some taboo existence, right … Mn? This is a killing trap inside the cold pond, there is no danger outside the cold pond. "
Duan De was also very talented in digging tombs, so he quickly saw the key points of the Yin Tomb.
The owner of the Shifter Emperor's Tomb was obviously not a ruthless person. His trap was only targeted at the Yin Tomb. As long as one did not enter the Yin Tomb, there would be no danger.
If they dared to force their way into the Yin Tomb, they would definitely see the terror of a Demon Emperor.
"If that's the case, it won't scare them at all."
Duan De heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that those terrifying ghosts were unable to walk out of the cold pond.
"Don't worry!"
Cao Cao's expression was calm. The Book of Life and Death in his hand glowed with a sacred black light. Under the cover of the black light, he and Duan De emitted the same aura as those Daemon Generals' corpses.
"Rumble!"
The cold pond seemed to be boiling. The corpses inside the pond seemed to be summoned by something. Corpses of various Daemon Generals kept rushing out. The one leading them was a monster. It was completely black and looked like a lion. However, upon closer inspection, it was not a lion. It looked very much like the legendary Hou. It was the Demon Emperor's mount in the past.
Cao Cao was controlling those corpses, or rather, he was guiding them out of the cold pond.
"You …"
Duan De's eyes glowed as he stared at the Book of Life and Death in Cao Cao's hand. He wanted nothing more than to snatch it away from Cao Cao.
Treasure!
It was simply an unparalleled treasure!
This Book of Life and Death was even more useful than an Apex Monarch Weapon for people like them who frequently excavated tombs.
"Run!"
The people who had been madly charging towards the Yang Tomb now looked at the surging corpses with shock and fear on their faces.
Although the Demon Emperor's mount did not have the strength it had when it was alive, it still had unimaginable combat strength. Moreover, there were countless Daemon Generals' corpses behind it. They were no match for it at all.
"Let's go!"
The leaders of the top forces like Yaoguang Sacred Ground and Jiang Family did not hesitate. They immediately led their men and left in a hurry.
They did not know that there was not only a Yang Tomb but also a Yin Tomb in the Tomb of the Shifter Emperor. They thought that by attacking the ancient palace, they had triggered the taboo of the Tomb of the Shifter Emperor and triggered a boundless massacre.
The Tomb of the Shifter Emperor was extremely terrifying. Not to mention them, even their Sacred Lord and Patriarch would only dare to watch from afar.
"Let's go!"
The people of All Heavens College sized up the Tomb of the Shifter Emperor that was surging with corpses. A portion of them turned around and left.
There were too many All Heavens College students around the Tomb of the Shifter Emperor. The pressure of competition was too great. It was too difficult to perform well. They might as well take the initiative to leave this place. After all, the Shrouding Heavens Realm was vast and boundless. There were many places with opportunities.
Although the Life Forbidden Zone had been resolved by the Dean and the others, there were still some terrifying places in the Shrouding Heavens Realm. For example, the place where the Ancient Races were sealed. For example, the Ancient Trial Road. These were all places of fortune.
"Let's leave. We don't know when this massacre will disperse. Moreover, this is the inheritance of the Shifter Emperor. It's not suitable for us."
A portion of the people of All Heavens College hesitated for a moment before turning around and leaving.
Except for a few people from All Heavens College who stayed, the others chose to leave the focus of the competition.
"They're all gone. Let's start."
Cao Cao's gaze had been focused on the direction of All Heavens College's camp. After seeing several powerful figures leave, Cao Cao could not help but smile.
This was a trial for students below Legend rank 6. Among them, there were a few Legend rank 5 who came to the Tomb of the Shifter Emperor. Cao Cao really did not have the confidence to compete with them.
As for the lower level students, Cao Cao did not care. Because these people were not strong enough to discover what was happening in the Tomb of the Shifter Emperor.
"Okay ~"
With the cover of the Book of Life and Death, Cao Cao and Duan De flew towards the Yang Tomb with smiles on their faces.
Now that there were only the two of them, all the treasures in the Yang Tomb were theirs.
Dong!
Cao Cao and Duan De cautiously walked into the ancient temple. Suddenly, a loud tremor shook the temple. Both of their faces turned pale as they retreated backward. A vast and immeasurable power rushed out from the ancient temple. Cao Cao quickly took out a foot-long golden pagoda. The pagoda grew in the wind, reaching about one zhang in size, and enveloped the two of them.
A blazing light burst out from the Shifter Emperor's mausoleum, so bright that people could not open their eyes. A vast and unfathomable power surged out like an avalanche and a small crystal coffin less than a foot long rushed out. The strong power and the dazzling light was emitted by it.
"Dong", "Dong", "Dong"...
It was gently trembling like a heartbeat. It was full of rhythm and was filled with majestic life energy. The vast power swept out in all directions.
"Suppress!"
The golden pagoda that had been protecting the two of them rapidly grew. In the blink of an eye, it was thousands of feet tall and covered the entire Ancient Temple.
Crack! Crack! "
The crystal coffin wanted to break free from its shackles but the golden pagoda was firmly suppressing it. The two forces fought against each other. The crystal coffin could not withstand the power and slowly cracked. Then, it shattered with a bang.
Boom!
At the same time, a monstrous demonic power burst out in an instant. Cao Cao and Duan De were sent flying again. Even the golden pagoda was shaking.
The life energy that burst out from the shattered crystal coffin was comparable to the ocean. Cao Cao and Duan De felt insignificant in front of it.
However, the source of this majestic life force was actually a bright red heart. It was only the size of a fist, and it was sparkling and translucent like a red agate. A vigorous blood-colored divine radiance lingered around it, and the boundless demonic energy and powerful life force was being emitted by it.
"Dong!" "Dong!" "Dong!" …
The sound of a heartbeat could be heard. It was actually trembling and beating. It did not lose its life energy. This was a heart with powerful vitality!
Cao Cao and Duan De retreated once again. The Book of Life and Death emitted an even brighter light. Every time this sparkling and bright red heart beat, they felt their blood vessels were about to burst. Even their hearts were in severe pain. Blood flowed out from the corners of their mouths. Even Duan De, who was slightly weaker, found it hard to stand. His body felt sore and weak.
It was a terrifying heart. Just its normal beating was unbearable!
"The Heart of the Great Emperor … It's the heart of the Shifter Emperor!"
Although his situation was very bad, Duan De's pale face was filled with excitement and fanaticism.
The heart of a Supreme Being!
It was too shocking!
If he could get this heart, he would definitely get an unimaginable reward.
The bright heart of the Shifter Emperor beat vigorously. Then, it suddenly soared into the sky and turned into a blood-colored divine radiance. It wanted to break free from the golden pagoda's shackles.
"Stop it. We can't let it go!"
Duan De said anxiously.
"Don't worry. It can't run away."
Cao Cao's face was pale but his eyes were shining brightly.
Great!
This is really great!
There was actually a Shifter Emperor's heart full of vitality. It was much better than what he had expected.
This was the heart of a Legendary Rank Seven expert. Whether it was used for alchemy or other purposes, its value was immeasurable.
"Luckily, I still have a trick up my sleeve!"
Cao Cao growled and took out a golden talisman from his Qiankun Bag.
It was a sealing charm that he had obtained from Tai Qing using his academic credits. It could temporarily seal an early-Seventh Order Legend realm expert for a few breaths of time. This was a life-saving talisman. If he were to encounter some terrifying existence, he could use this talisman to delay the enemy and escape with his life.
The golden talisman bloomed with a bright light like a golden sun. It directly shrouded the Shifter Emperor's heart.
The Shifter Emperor's heart wanted to rush out several times but it was suppressed by the golden light.
"Keep!"
Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly kept the Shifter Emperor's heart in the golden pagoda.
If it was a legendary seventh level powerhouse, he wouldn't have dared to put it into the golden pagoda even if he had ten times the courage. However, this was just a heart. Although it had terrifying power, it didn't have any self-awareness. The golden pagoda was enough to trap it.
"There's someone inside!"
At this moment, even the stupidest person had noticed the changes in the Shifter Emperor's tomb. Especially the moment when the golden pagoda grew bigger, many people's eyes turned red and flashed with greed.
"The Ancient Desolate Tower!"
"That's the Ancient Desolate Tower, the number one treasure in the Eastern Wilderness. Quickly inform the Sacred Lord and the Supreme Elder!"
"The Ancient Desolate Tower is indeed in the Shifter Emperor's tomb. Let's go! This is a treasure related to becoming an Immortal. "
… ….
Countless people went crazy and forced their way into the corpse tide.
They had mistaken Cao Cao's golden pagoda for the Ancient Desolate Tower. No one could resist the temptation.
"Let's go!"
Although Cao Cao really wanted to explore the situation inside the Yang Tomb, he knew that if he stayed any longer, he would become the target of public criticism.
Moreover, the appearance of the Shifter Emperor's heart would definitely attract more terrifying experts. If some of the Clan of the Ancients and the Sacred Lands came with Extreme Emperor Weapons, Cao Cao would not be able to survive even if he had ten lives.
There were still many supreme beings' tombs in Shrouding Heaven World waiting for him to excavate. He could not lose the big picture for the small.
"Let's go!"
Duan De did not dissuade him and said with a smile.
It was worth it!
Although they did not see the Ancient Desolate Tower and did not obtain the Daoist Scripture, they had obtained the Shifter Emperor's heart. Perhaps they could study the secrets of the supreme beings.
Whoosh!
Riding the golden pagoda, Cao Cao directly teleported with Duan De and left this troublesome place.
"Hahaha …"
Tens of thousands of miles away, a golden light fell. Cao Cao and Duan De looked at each other and could not help but laugh.
The Shifter Emperor's heart!
This was the heart of a Legendary Level Seven expert. Not to mention the heart of a Legendary Level Seven expert, even a drop of blood from a Legendary Level Seven expert was a supreme treasure to them.
Now that they had obtained a heart directly, it would definitely bring them unimaginable benefits.
"Let's split this heart in half. I plan to sell it to Teacher Taiqing. Teacher Taiqing is especially good at alchemy, refining, and charms. We can customize the Dharma treasures we like from Teacher Taiqing according to our preferences."
After about a few breaths, Cao Cao stopped laughing and said with a serious face.
Although he had contributed more this time, he still planned to divide it equally.
This was his first cooperation with Duan De, so he did not care about the amount of work. As for the distribution in the future, it would be according to the work.
"Then we will sell it to Master Taiqing."
Duan De also nodded.
He was a freshman, and Cao Cao looked like a wily old fox. His choice would not be wrong.
"How about selling it to me?"
At this moment, a handsome and stalwart figure with scattered black hair and lightning like eyes, who appeared to be in his twenties, suddenly appeared in front of the two of them. His face was expressionless as he spoke.
"Greetings, Master."
Cao Cao and Duan De hurriedly bowed, puzzled.
According to the information from the student card, the teacher in front of them was their invigilator. During the invigilator process, shouldn't he be unable to communicate with the candidates?
Now he wants to buy the heart that they obtained. Is he not afraid of the punishment from the dean?
"If Master Qing Di wants it, I will sell it to you."
Cao Cao quickly checked the information of the figure in front of him with the student card and said without hesitation.
Although he did not know why the other party was so unscrupulous, since the other party had spoken, Cao Cao would not refuse.
Even if the new teacher in front of them could not provide them with suitable pills or artifacts, he should be able to give them credits. When the time comes, they could use the credits to customize treasures and pills from Master Taiqing.
"Bang!"
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, he found that Duan De was so scared that he sat directly on the ground. His face was pale and his body was trembling, unable to speak.
"Then I will take it."
Qing Di said as he took the heart out of the golden pagoda and disappeared.
"What's wrong?"
Cao Cao was puzzled and asked.
"The master of the tomb that we excavated is called … Qing Di."
Duan De forced himself to calm down and said word by word.
Cao Cao was speechless.
