A white-haired old man in green robes, riding a goat the size of an elephant, crossed a distant distance of hundreds of miles and took the lead in rushing to the entrance of the Perdition Tomb Forest.
This old man’s origin was very astonishing, being the head of a Saint Sect, possessing an advanced age of four hundred years, and in the Eastern Domain, he was also a prestigious existence.
“Boom!”
However, this old Valve Lord was attacked by an odd force at the entrance, failing to break in and instead being sent flying backwards.
Seeing this scene, those cultivators who wanted to break into the Perishing Tomb Forest stopped.
“What’s going on?”
“The power of the Perishing God Tomb Forest isn’t used to suppress the undead, making it impossible for them to escape. Now, how come it’s the other way round …… living beings, instead, are unable to break in.”
……
Zhang Ruochen and Cold Snow both stopped as well, hiding not far from the entrance of the Perishing God Tomb Forest.
Zhang Ruochen stared towards the old man riding the Hundred Spirit Sheep, and quickly guessed the identity of this person, whispering, “This person should be the one from the Tao Sage Sect Valve.
“The Tao Sage Sect Valve is one of the ten or so Saint Valves in the Godfall Mountain Range, with a history of thousands of years. For such a big event to happen in the Godfall Mountain Range, it must have alerted them. It’s not surprising that the Tao Sacred Sect Valve’s Valve Master, appeared here.”
Cold Snow asked, “Master, what is the Tao Sheng Sect Valve’s Valve Master, doing here?”
“This place, called the Perishing Tomb Forest, is a relic of the Middle Ages. In the past, this place was an incomparably dangerous forbidden land, and once you broke in, you wouldn’t be able to escape.”
“But now, the vast majority of the undead in the Perishing Tomb Forest have come outside and gone to attack the Two Element Sect. As a result, the danger level of the Perishing Tomb Forest has decreased.
“It must be because there are extraordinary treasures in the Perishing Tomb Forest that attracted these people here.”
“It is said that the old Valve Master of the Tao Sheng Sect Valve only has a few years of life left. It is estimated that it is because of the imminent end of his life that he had to rush to the Perishable God Tomb Forest to look for a chance, wanting to renew his life.”Zhang Ruochen analysed.
An incomparably surging holy qi emanated from the body of the Tao Sheng Sect Valve’s old Valve Master, and the white hair on his head was as if it had turned into thousands of blades, swaying rapidly in the air and emitting a sword-like wind-breaking sound.
“This Saint has lived for four hundred and seventeen years, and his cultivation is transcendent, I don’t believe that I can’t break through a layer of Ghost King confinement. The more the Ghost Kings of the Perishable Tomb Forest don’t want outsiders to break in, it’s also more indicative that, inside there, there must be a divine medicine to bring the dead back to life.”
The Tao Sage Sect Valve’s old Valve Master widened his pair of holy eyes, mobilised the rules of the Holy Dao, and slapped his palm against the void.
Right in front of the Tao Sacred Sect Valve’s Old Valve Master, a black curtain of light, presented itself, connecting the sky and the earth, blocking him to death.
At the position of his palm, the black curtain of light sunk in, forming a rapidly rotating vortex.
“A divine medicine that brings the dead back to life?”
Hearing the words of the Tao Sheng Sect Valve’s old Valve Master, Zhang Ruochen revealed an astonished expression.
In the Kunlun Realm, there had always been legends of the “Pill to Raise the Dead” and the “Pill of Immortality”. Only, even in the Middle Ages, when the gods were still around, these two medicines were rare and only appeared occasionally. Moreover, every time they appeared, it was only a rumour, and no one had ever actually seen them.
How did the old Valve Master of the Tao Sage Sect Valve know that the Perishing God’s Tomb Forest had a divine medicine for raising the dead?
Right at this moment, a slender silhouette, taking advantage of the chaos, rushed to the bottom of the black curtain of light, took a step forward, and unexpectedly crossed in and disappeared.
Immediately after, there were a dozen silhouettes that crossed the black light curtain and rushed into the Perishing Tomb Forest.
One of them, sent out a message, “Suffering an attack from a Saint, the Ghost King’s confinement will become weaker, and cultivators below a Saint can break in and enter.”
Upon hearing this piece of news, the Half-Saint and Fish Dragon Realm cultivators who were hidden in the shadows cast out their body techniques and headed straight in the direction of the black curtain of light.
Zhang Ruochen and Cold Snow, naturally, were also the first to cross the black light curtain and enter the interior of the Perishing Tomb Forest.
Behind them, a mournful scream was heard, and the sound spread throughout this part of the world.
On the earth, the originally dark soil quickly turned blood red. Zhang Ruochen glanced back and saw that the old Valve Master of the Tao Sheng Sect Valve was unexpectedly suppressed on the ground by that one beautiful Ghost King wearing a blood-red robe.
The beautiful Ghost King’s eyes were cold and devoid of any human feelings, and five slender fingers were directly inserted into the top of the Tao Sheng Sect Valve’s Old Valve Master’s head, pulling out a Saint Soul.
The Tao Sheng Sect Valve’s old Valve Master, after all, fell, his body falling limply to the ground.
“Giggle!”
The beautiful Ghost King’s hands closed, using ghost fire, she refined the holy soul into a snow-white elixir, using two slender fingers, she held the elixir and swallowed it into her mouth.
Every movement she made was incomparably elegant and full of beauty.
“A powerful Valve Lord actually fell just like this, even his Saint Soul was drained away.”
Zhang Ruochen only felt his scalp tingling and his heart beating non-stop.
That was a Saint, an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years, his cultivation unknown how many times more powerful than Zhang Ruochen’s, and how could he die before he could even step into the Perishable Tomb Forest, how could it not make one’s heart tremble?
Suddenly, the Beautiful Ghost King turned around and stared in the direction of the interior of the Perishing God Tomb Forest. With a pair of eye pupils, two sharp sword-like light shuttles shot out, striking Zhang Ruochen and another direction respectively.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen gave birth to a feeling of extreme danger, and the hairs on his entire body stood up as he immediately brought Cold Snow with him, performing Spatial Shift and dodging.
“Boom!”
Another light shuttle struck an Immortal Blood Race’s Half-Saint, shattering him into a bloody mist.
Zhang Ruochen rushed to the side of the blood mist and used the Ruyi Treasure Vase to collect a ball of Half-Saint’s light into the vase before quickly rushing towards the depths of the Perishing Tomb Forest again.
Because there was a layer of Ghost King confinement between them, the beautiful Ghost King did not notice the spatial fluctuation.
Merely, her mouth, however, let out a soft eek, clearly not expecting that a young human, actually managed to dodge her attack.
“Hao Chuan Wu Chang.”The beautiful ghost king said.
With that, a black ghost qi, rushed out from the army of the undead, condensing into a human body, wearing a black robe and riding a huge crocodile-like soul beast, appeared in front of the Beauty Ghost King.
“Greetings to the Ghost King.”
Hao Chuan Wu Chang jumped down from the soul beast’s back and knelt on one knee in front of the Beauty Ghost King.
The Beauty Ghost King said, “You lead the ten Irregulars and immediately rush back to the netherworld, make sure to eliminate all those humans and savage beasts that broke in earlier.”
“Lead the way.”
Haochuan Impermanence returned back to the soul beast’s back, and then, ten Impermanence were selected to rush into the Perishable Tomb Forest and go after Zhang Ruochen and the others.
The golden-armoured lion beast attacked up again and continued to fight with the beautiful ghost king. The aftershocks that erupted from their battle swept hundreds of miles in a radius.
At the same time, there were some more cultivators hiding nearby who took the opportunity to rush into the Perishing God Tomb Forest.
Entering the Perishable God Tomb Forest was not peaceful, there was still a constant stream of undead armies that rushed out from inside, and when they saw living beings, they immediately attacked.
One of the undead armies then attacked Zhang Ruochen and Han Xue.
“Divine Dragon’s Tribulation.”
Zhang Ruochen condensed his palm power, and dozens of lightning bolts surged out from the centre of his hand as he struck the sixth palm of the Dragon Elephant Palm, shattering the soul bodies of a large army of Yin soldiers.
“Wow!”
Cold Snow also mobilised the Void Sword and swung it, releasing a large swathe of sword qi, exterminating all the remaining Yin soldiers.
Not far from the two of them, a young man in his twenties, standing next to a tombstone, was also surrounded by a group of undead.
This young man’s face, rather waxy, tall and thin, wearing a yellow robe with a cloak on his head, faced the siege of hundreds of undead, but his face did not change.
“Burning Hell.”
Between the young man’s two fingers, he held a yellow talisman and struck the ground, then the talisman burst apart, transforming into a sea of fire tens of feet in diameter.
In an instant, the undead, all of them, were burnt into ghostly mist.
Cold Snow blinked her eyes and stared at the young man, saying, “What a powerful paper.”
“Not paper, that’s a talisman.”
Zhang Ruochen added, “In the Eastern Domain, there are very few cultivators who practice talismans, however, in the Central Domain there are some ancient clans that are very proficient in talismans. Some of these powerful figures are known as Rune Masters.”
The young man’s ears twitched as he seemed to have heard the conversation between Zhang Ruochen and Cold Snow, and he stared at the two of them, revealing a defensive look.
With that, he quickly retreated, distancing himself from Zhang Ruochen and Han Xue.
“Wow!”
An ice-cold, sinister wind quickly blew over from the direction behind them, causing the Perishing God Tomb Forest to fly sand and stones.
“All living beings that intrude into the Perishable God Tomb Forest, all of them will be killed on sight.”A gloomy voice came out from the gloomy wind.
Zhang Ruochen glanced back, only to see that a black-robed man who had condensed a substantial ghostly body was sitting on the back of a gigantic Soul Beast that was running straight towards his and Cold Snow’s direction.
The soul beast’s body, which was tens of metres long, resembled a large black lizard with two blood-red eyeballs, running at a speed that was faster than many Half-Saints.
The black-robed man was none other than Hao Chuan Wu Chang, who was dispatched by the Beautiful Ghost King.
Right behind Haochuan Uncanny, there were ten other Uncanny. They didn’t chase after Zhang Ruochen and Cold Snow, but rushed to ten other directions to hunt down the others.
“Run away.”
Zhang Ruochen’s face sank as he immediately grabbed Han Xue’s wrist and activated the power of the Meteor Invisibility Clothes as he fled ahead at a rapid pace.
Nowadays, Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation level was comparable to a peak Second Stage Half-Saint powerhouse, and his own speed was already incredibly fast.
The Meteor Invisibility Suit was able to increase his speed, by a factor of two, thus, in terms of speed alone, even a Seventh Order Half-Saint might not be able to catch up with Zhang Ruochen.
The young man from earlier was also being chased by Hao Chuan Wu Chang.
He immediately took out two green-coloured talismans and stuck them on his legs.
“Wind and Fire Infinite.”
Immediately, a powerful wind and fire Qi emanated from between his legs, condensing into two green-coloured flame vortexes, as if his feet were stepping on wind and fire wheels, turning into a green-coloured stream of light as he rushed out.
The young man’s speed was surprisingly not below Zhang Ruochen’s.
