Chapter 606 - Copper Coffin, Wisdom Realm Elite’s Corpse
Chapter 606: Copper Coffin, Wisdom Realm Elite’s Corpse
There were quite a lot of people in the team, but the Corpse King ate very quickly, so the team advanced very quickly.
Cultivator Junjun was at his wits end, and he stared at Old Dragon. “What do we do?”
“Calm down! Keep up the act, understand?”
Old Dragon was very calm, and was making sarcastic remarks. After all, he was not the one in danger.
At the same time, he gave a consoling gaze. “Maybe the Corpse King will already be full when it gets to your turn.”
At that moment, the final corpse in front of them was sent up, jumping into the Corpse King’s mouth.
The Corpse King chewed in satisfaction as it’s deathly gold gaze was fixed on the corpse that Cultivator Junjun turned into, moving his hands in a beckoning fashion.
D*mn it!
It was not full at all!
Cultivator Junjun looked at Old Dragon stiffly.
‘Don’t tell me, is this dragon really going to sacrifice me to protect himself?!’
Old Dragon’s face was calm and innocent, as if he did not notice anything.
The Corpse King was starting to get impatient, and it opened its mouth and roared.
The old man walked over, frowning as he said unhappily to Old Dragon, “What’s happening? Send your corpse in there now!”
Cultivator Junjun looked at Old Dragon, and started to slowly retreat towards the outside.
The old man furrowed his eyebrows. “What’s happening? Grab that zombie right now!”
Cultivator Junjun was obviously not planning on willingly meeting his end, so without a second word, he sped out and started to run outside.
The old man let out a cold laugh and immediately chased after him.
Old Dragon’s eyes glinted, and he started to rush out as well.
Seeing as no one was chasing from behind, he raised his hand, and pointed at the old man that had a strange smile on his face.
“Set!”
That old man’s smile froze on his face, his eyes were filled with surprise as he fell right out of the air.
Cultivator Junjun moved next to Old Dragon, preparing to run. “Hurry up, you’ll take the lead and we’ll fight our way out. There’s still a chance!”
“Why would we fight? The performance continues!”
Old Dragon was incredibly calm, and he raised his hand to point at the old man. The old man turned to look like a corpse, and then he pointed at Cultivator Junjun, turning Cultivator Junjun to look like the old man.
After that, they brought the ‘zombie’ back.
Everything had been done very quickly, so it did not cause too much of a commotion.
“Sorry, the zombie suddenly decided it was afraid of dying, and I lost control a bit.”
Old Dragon looked calm on the surface, and greeted everyone normally. After that, he raised his hand, and threw the ‘zombie’ into the mouth of the Corpse King.
The others in the cave looked at Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun before averting their gaze, not feeling that it was too strange.
Cultivator Junjun was shocked by Old Dragon’s move, and secretly shot him a look of admiration.
Old Dragon waved it off, unsurprised as he said silently, “Stop making a big deal of it! The Dao of Indifference is broad and profound. It was just a little scene earlier, I already had twenty eight ways of dealing with it in mind within zero point zero one seconds.”
Then, they finally looked around at everything within the cave.
Inside the cave was its own self contained space. There was a huge crater in the middle, which housed that Corpse King. The aura that flowed around its body had the manifestation of Dao, it actually had the power of a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal.
Around the crater were platforms that formed a circle, erected to keep watch. They would occasionally cast certain spells at the Corpse King.
What attracted Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun’s interest the most was, around the platforms, other than the cave they had entered from earlier, there were three other caves, each leading to a different place!
And within every cave, the power that oozed out was no weaker than the corpse king, which greatly caused them to feel a sense of uneasiness.
“Do you remember those temples outside?”
Old Dragon was deep in thought, walking with Cultivator Junjun and they projected their voice at each other. “Each temple is probably raising something like the Corpse King, and…the temples should all be linked underground!”
Cultivator Junjun asked, “Senior Dragon, what do we do next?”
He was already thoroughly impressed by Old Dragon. Old Dragon really was the God of Indifference. Everything he did was very steady, and he changed with the flow in a calculated manner. On top of that, he was very strong, filling Cultivator Junjun with a sense of safety.
A good teammate.
Old Dragon said, “Take that token out, we’ll go to whichever cave it reacts to.”
The two of them sneakily and carefully explored the caves. Thanks to the concealment spell that Old Dragon used, they were not noticed by anyone.
When they got near to the second cave, the token started to shake. The two of them exchanged a glance, and soundlessly moved further inside.
The cave went deeper underground. As they moved, the aura of death got stronger and stronger. The blood red aura of corpses and the black colored aura of death filled the passage, causing an immense pressure and making them feel incredibly uneasy.
There was no one else in the passage. More precisely, they could not even fill a sliver of life, it was filled with death.
Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun both held their breaths, advancing with incredibly heavy expressions.
When they got to the end of the passage, their eyes widened, revealing a look of shock.
The passage was not connected to the ground, but rather to a wall. Below the wall was an incredibly large wall. It was incredibly spacious, and at the center of that hall was a tied up zombie!
It had white eyes, and it’s body was massive. Its green muscles bulged like mountains. It was completely wrapped in steel chains, and it stood unmovingly on the ground.
Around it was an incredibly shocking aura. The aura was black, and it distorted and twisted the area around it, forming a black vortex that signified death.
Cultivator Junjun’s legs trembled as his eyes widened. His saliva was stuck in his throat, and he did not even dare to swallow it for fear of that terrifying existence.
He could feel that that zombie could rip him apart!
It was a Heavenly Realm zombie!
What kind of mad man created this hidden border, creating an existence as evil and powerful as that?
If it was not for the token and a bit of fate, he would probably have never found this hidden realm!
And that massive secret it was hiding!
Old Dragon pointed around before noticing that, other than the entrance they were on, there were four other caves around the high halls?
Other than that, next to the zombie, there was another cave that seemed to head further underground!
If they continued to move, and continued to go further underground, what sort of horrifying zombies would they find there?
At that moment, two ear-piercing screeches could be heard from two out of the six holes on the walls. Right after that, two massive beasts fell into the hall!
One of them was a black panther with a third eye on its forehead, the other was a white lion. The two beasts immediately jumped up the moment they touched the ground, on full alert as they looked at that horrifying zombie in fear.
The zombie that was quietly standing there widened its mouth, revealing a fierce look as it raised its hands, sending one hand to each beast!
The two beasts were both at the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal realm, but in the hands of that zombie, they were like mere babies. Other than roaring and struggling, there was nothing they could do. After that, they were lifted up by their necks.
All the power within their bodies surged, unleashing and unending energy. However, they could not change the situation even slightly. The zombie’s hands were like hopeless cages for them.
The zombie first sent the black panther to its mouth, easily biting a large chunk of meat from its body. The black panther cried out in immense agony.
So, the caves on the walls were meant to feed the zombie with!
“Gulp.”
Cultivator Junjun could no longer stand it, and gulped.
He realized that, both the panther and the lion were not much weaker than him…
It was too horrifying!
“Roar!”
The zombie that was eating suddenly raised its head, its white eyes staring at Cultivator Junjun. After that, it raised its hands and shot at the two of them!
Its claws could grab the stars. The palm of its hand was like an entire world. Under the pressure, they had no way of running.
“We go to the cave underneath!”
Old Dragon shouted out, and he then raised his hand, sending a palm at the zombie!
That palm did not have any visible power to it, nor did it feel particularly powerful, but when it collided with the zombie’s claws, it fixed the claws in place.
Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun took the chance to go toward the other cave!
“Roar!”
The zombie exploded in rage when its attack was stopped. It threw its food away, and the chains on its body started to clank as it extended both its claws at them!
Before the claws landed, the surrounding space started to crack, and an unending pressure descended from the heavens. It was as if it was the will of the heavens itself, and could not be rejected.
Under that will, the surrounding space was sealed, and Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun could not advance.
However, the cave and the chains were definitely not ordinary. After all that commotion, nothing seemed damaged at all.
Old dragon had no intention of fighting that zombie to the death, so he grabbed onto Cultivator Junjun as his other hand pushed forward.
The space the zombie sealed off was broken, and Old Dragon did not look back, taking a step forward, disappearing into the cave.
“Roar!”
The zombie roared in fury, and it vented its anger on its food, fervently biting at it.
Cultivator Junjun’s face was pale after being grabbed by Old Dragon. He could not help but purse his lips. “Are you sure we should move forward?”
He felt like he would just be looking for death if he continued forward with his level of cultivation.
Old Dragon said, “Since we’re already here, investigating everything is a natural course of action. I’ll be continuing, and you can do what you want.
Cultivator Junjun looked at Old Dragon with a complicated expression, suddenly saying, “You’ve been so indifferent that everyone thought you would not do anything dangerous. I did not expect that you would be so brave, I’ve misunderstood you.”
Old Dragon smiled. “Haha, it’s fine. What joy is there in life, and what suffering is there in death?”
“You…”
Cultivator Junjun sighed, saying in admiration, “I’m very proud that I can call you a friend!”
Old Dragon looked at Cultivator Junjun’s demeanor, and calculated in his mind. With Old Dragon’s reactions, he would be able to completely avoid anything and leave Junjun behind at any sight of danger. However, with how Cultivator Junjun was acting, he was suddenly reluctant to betray the man…
The two of them continued walking forward, more careful than before.
This time, their journey was much longer. There seemed to be no end, and there was only darkness that swallowed everything.
At that moment, their footsteps stopped at the same time, they seemed to be able to hear a sound.
Their hearts jumped, and they sped up their footsteps.
The voice they heard was getting clearer and clearer.
“One thought… extinguishes the heavens. One finger points… at eternity, unrivalled in life, unrivalled in death!”
The voice was not loud, as if someone was mumbling. However, hearing it caused their blood to stop, and their spirits felt a pressure from that voice.
Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun stopped for a moment, taking in a deep breath before they continued.
Since it could talk, then was a person or a zombie in front?
Earlier, even a Heavenly Realm zombie could only roar like a wild beast, unable to speak at all!
As they thought about it, Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun already walked out of the cave. In front of them was a platform, and on that platform was…a coffin!
A bronze coffin!
It looked very simple, devoid of patents. There were only signs of wear and tear.
Boom!”
When they saw the coffin, Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun’s minds suddenly went blank, as if they had witnessed a deep Wisdom, and could not see the end to it.
A complete sense of admiration filled their hearts. Even though they had yet to open the coffin, they already knew it was no ordinary thing.
“One thought extinguishes the heavens. One finger points at eternity, unrivalled in life, unrivalled in death!”
The voice came from within the bronze coffin, and each time the voice was heard, waves of power would materialize around the coffin, as if an unparalleled warrior was approaching.
In Cultivator Junjun’s hands, the token shook, floating up into the sky and emitting a multicolored glow.
“Is it the Soul Master? Or someone else from the Nine Elites?”
Cultivator Junjun widened his eyes. He never expected that this group of people would be so crazy to try to refine an Elite zombie!
Just as Old Dragon and Cultivator Junjun approached the coffin, a horrifying pressure exploded outwards, the power was immense as he shouted, “You dare?!”
Old Dragon’s expression sank. Without a second word, he picked up Cultivator Junjun and started to run straight for the escape route that he had been eyeing.
His speed was immensely fast, and in just a flash, he left the ground and appeared in mid air.
He did not even look back, and went straight for the exit of the hidden border.
“Seal the border!”
As an old voice was heard, in those ancient temples, surges out power started to rise, heading straight for Old Dragon!
A Heavenly Realm zombie was sent right at Old Dragon, roaring.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each step it took stepped on the laws of space, and a strange power formed around it. It was a flash, it sent a fist out flying!
That punch distorted space and shattered the barrier. It did not fly in the air, but rather seemed to teleport instantly, landing right on Old Dragon’s body!
A white haired old man floated in the air, focusing on Old Dragon and he pointed his finger outward.
From the skies, a gigantic finger appeared, heading straight for Old Dragon, as if it were squishing an ant!
On another side, another Heavenly Realm aura rose, and a black clothed, skinny old man flew out!
