Chapter 295 Supreme Immortal Artifact, The Gaunt Old Man_2
He carried the Life Mark, and he was the Successor; even if the path behind him was sealed, he wasn't that afraid.
"The Daoist of Life and Death isn't dead?" The Huayuan Sect Elders exchanged glances, a shiver running through their hearts.
The path behind was blocked as soon as it was mentioned, sending chills down everyone's spine. Only then did the Red Dust Immortals start to take a closer look around the cave.
To call it a cave was an understatement; it was more like a corridor.
To the left, right, and above were ancient grey stone walls, while the ground was paved with brown stones, as if they had been stained with fresh blood.
The stone wall blocked the way back, and ahead was a dark, lightless hole.
The oppressive feeling in the confined space surged in an instant.
"Move aside, Yin Tribe youngster, and let the elder blast it open!" Ba Kui, the elder, took out the newly forged Golden Divine Halberd and shouted fiercely. Laws surged, the halberd like the wind, fiercely stabbing into the stone wall behind them.
Boom!
The golden light faded, but not even a white mark was left.
"What are you all still waiting for? Hurry up and attack the stone walls all around, see if we can blast a way out," Ba Kui, the elder, said angrily.
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, everyone took out their weapons and attacked the stone walls, but to no avail. Not to mention white marks, they couldn't even produce a spark.
Yang Ji shook his head. The powerful Law of Life and Death sealed off the surroundings; how could they possibly shake it?
"What the hell is this sorcery? How could the path behind just become blocked like that?" Everyone felt there was something evil about the place.
"Elder Ba Kui, what do we do now?" He had lived the longest here, so everyone looked to him.
"What else can we do? Keep moving forward and see!" Ba Kui frowned and said.
Everyone nodded solemnly and moved forward three steps, then turned their heads back to see if the path might be blocked again.
As they took the ninth step and looked back, someone suddenly exclaimed in alarm, "Elder Ba Kui, the path we just walked has been blocked again!"
"This place is sinister. Quickly, use an Immortal Artifact to open the way. We'll follow the Immortal Artifact's lead and see if we can get through!" Although Ba Kui's brow was furrowed into a Sichuan character, he remained calm and immediately took the lead to fly forward.
Everyone followed closely behind, casting spells to light up the way ahead.
Inside the narrow corridor, beams of light flickered, and dust particles floated in the air.
As they continued to fly along, skeletons from various races began to appear in the corridor.
As people flew past, the weak air vibrations spread out, immediately causing a large number of skeletal remains to crumble into ash. They had withstood the test of time for so long that they seemed unable to withstand even the slightest tremor.
Everyone was on high alert and secretly horrified by the multitude of bones; they had no idea what kind of place they had stumbled into.
After flying continuously for a day and seeing more and more skeletons, Elder Ba Kui felt an increasing chill down his spine.
The further they flew, the more eerie it felt, so he simply waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop and proceed with cautious steps.
The mood of everyone present was extremely heavy and far from pleasant.
After walking for a while, suddenly, within the light from their spells, a figure appeared, silent and swift. It was large, with wings on its back and ferocious, clawed hands as if it intended to tear everyone apart.
"Damn! What is that? A Death Spirit?"
Elder Ba Kui was startled, his body trembling in surprise, but the Golden Halberd in his hands was not idle. He acted decisively, thrusting it fiercely into the Death Spirit.
There was no collision, and the Death Spirit simply passed through Ba Kui's halberd and viciously headed towards him.
"What?"
Elder Ba Kui was shaken. He had delivered a full-force thrust, piercing the Death Spirit, but it remained utterly unharmed and was rapidly closing in.
"Overbearing Heaven Fire! Burn you to death!" Ba Kui shifted tactics quickly. Seeing the halberd was useless, he promptly used his powerful fire, instantly creating a wall of fire in front of him.
However...
The Death Spirit simply passed straight through the fire, its claws piercing Elder Ba Kui, and in the shocked gaze of the onlookers, it pierced through them one after another before flying towards the back of the corridor and merging into the stone wall.
"Unharmed?"
Elder Ba Kui suppressed the shock within him and examined his body, only to find he was unscathed.
Everyone else was also bewildered, but only Yang Ji's eyes flickered; he already understood everything.
"Woo woo..." A series of sinister and terrifying howls came through, as countless Death Spirits charged forward, bringing a chilling breeze filled with endless glints of red bloodlust, shrieking as they advanced.
Everyone was greatly alarmed.
"The Overbearing Heaven Fire is specially designed to conquer Death Spirits!" Ba Kui, the ancestor, flung his hands, and the terrifyingly hot fire dragon plunged forward, intending to burn all the Death Spirits to ashes.
However...
Those Death Spirits, just like the one before, ignored the Overbearing Heaven Fire and brazenly charged out.
Ba Kui, the ancestor, was alarmed and hastily launched several attacks.
But it was useless; the Death Spirits just rushed over, passing through everyone's bodies and entering the passage behind them.
"What... What is going on here?"@@novelbin@@
Everyone was feeling uneasy, everything was too weird.
Ba Kui, the ancestor, furrowed his brows deeply, staring at the Death Spirits that had merged into the stone wall behind, also clueless about what was happening.
Everyone continued walking with unsettlement and suspicion.
Before long, thick fog rolled in front, and flashes of bloody light heralded the arrival of a monstrous and ferocious behemoth in an instant; its huge claws covered the entire passage.
It was too fast.
So fast that even Ba Kui, the ancestor, hadn't reacted before he was struck by the massive claw, which should have crushed him into mincemeat.
However...
He was unharmed.
Everyone was also unharmed.
At this moment, everyone took a deep breath, exchanged glances, their hearts trembling with shock, all finding the situation incredible.
"What the hell kind of place is this? Why are there so many strange Death Spirits?" Ba Kui, the ancestor, couldn't help but curse.
"Dammit! No, this is too weird." After walking a few steps, Ba Kui, the ancestor, shook his head, turned around, and grabbed someone, "Yin Tribe kid, you go up front!"
"Ba Kui, the ancestor, I..." The Yin Tribe's Red Dust Immortal started to protest miserably.
"Move it, no more nonsense, or else this old man will chop you to pieces!" Ba Kui, the ancestor, was also afraid.
More Death Spirits floated towards them from the front, looking ferocious and malevolent, making everyone feel uncomfortable.
They rushed in fiercely, then passed through everyone's bodies, and after some time, everyone got used to it, abandoning defense and proceeding as usual.
"These are echoes of time; you all need not be afraid!" The voices of the Death Spirits grew louder, the chill wind swirling, but the dust along the path didn't stir at all. Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Yang Ji spoke slowly, reaching out to touch the incoming Death Spirits, but they passed through his fingers like the wind.
"Echoes of time? With so many Death Spirits rushing from the front, what place lies ahead? Could it be a land of great peril?" The Yin Tribe's Red Dust Immortal leading the way suddenly cried out.
"Don't freaking speculate and fear without reason!" Ba Kui, the ancestor, kicked him, but he quietly tightened his robe, his expression revealing an unprecedented gravity.
Everyone proceeded slowly.
Suddenly, a ghastly voice came from ahead: "You should not have come here..."
Pandemonium!
Everyone was utterly shaken, even the mighty Ba Kui, the ancestor, whose face turned pale, his body hair standing on end, and a bone-chilling coldness froze his soul in an instant, scaring him to the point where he could barely think.
My god!
There are actually living creatures in here?
The aura exuded by each of the Death Spirits had been incredibly strong; if those shadows were so formidable, how powerful must the living creatures ahead be? Stay connected through My Virtual Library Empire
Ba Kui, the ancestor's body trembled slightly as he moved the light slowly forward, but he discovered nothing. Then, with a trembling voice, he tentatively asked, "Who... who are you?"
"You should not have come here..." The same voice caused everyone to shudder.
"Retreat, retreat, retreat!" Ba Kui, the ancestor was frightened and urgently whispered.
But just as everyone slowly stepped back, that voice sounded again, "You should not have come here..."
That voice... which was previously in front of them, now seemed to drift over from behind...
Everyone's hearts felt as if they were being squeezed, barely daring to breathe; the voice was unpredictable, now seeming in front of the passage, now behind it.
Looking back and forth, at this moment, no one knew what to do.
"Sigh!" Just when everyone was terrified, a sigh echoed, so clearly, clear right next to everyone's ears.
Everyone tensed, slowly turning their heads towards the sound. As the light swept across, they all stumbled back several steps, exclaiming, "You, you, you..." only to see a figure seated on the side of the passage three meters away, a skinny black-robed old man. Even Ba Kui, the ancestor, had no idea where he had come from.
What do you think?
