NOVEL WEB Chapter 93: Start Killing
Xie Xuanyi looked at the bone armor lying in his palm.
Divine Thought swept out.
At first glance, this shattered bone didn't seem special... But Xie Xuanyi, who carried Bai Ze's finger bone, felt a familiar aura on this bone armor.
Perhaps this was something personally left by Bai Ze Great Saint?
The Secret Tomb had been hidden for a millennium, and who knows what restrictions might be inside. It's always wise to stay cautious.
"Alright... we can go now."
Xie Xuanyi flipped his palm and kept the bone armor.
Just as he was about to step forward, he frowned.
"Eh?"
Beside him, White Crane True Man let out a soft sound, his expression becoming subtle.
Dark clouds enveloped the hall.
The Yin Mountain Evil Cultivators were still confused, but Zhong Sha sniffed deeply, turned his head, and warned in a deep voice: "Prepare the treasure formation, someone is coming!"
This time was different from before—
The Void Formation of Bai Ze Secret Tomb had already stopped operating.
Now, the various Secret Halls had settled into new positions. If they were to meet again, it wouldn't be a brief encounter like last time.
"Hehe..."
Ren Zhong squinted his narrow eyes and spoke softly: "This Secret Tomb seems large, but it's actually quite small. It's been less than a quarter-hour, and we've already met several groups."
Seeing the shadows extending from the Secret Hall, several miles away, a faint light was illuminating the area.
A group of people was approaching from afar.
Light Primordial Energy, dispersing out—
Clearly.
These were Da Chu Practitioners.
The Three Great Sects' evil cultivators do not cultivate Primordial Energy.
"..."
Xie Xuanyi silently grasped a strand of Sword Intent.
He released Divine Thought, wanting to see the identity of the approaching group.
The Bingyou cultivators had all perished.
The Jiang Family, Baihua Valley, Martial Sect, Yuqing Pavilion followed Ye Ancestor and had just left.
If, at this moment, the approaching group was the Bingzhou Xu Family with Xu Nianning or the Qiantian Palace, or the Xuanzhui Mountain faction with Qin Baihuang, then Xie Xuanyi was prepared to draw his sword directly, seize the opportunity while White Crane True Man was unguarded... These Yin Mountain bastards had to be eliminated sooner or later. If a skirmish erupted now, there was no point in pretending any longer.
A faint Killing Intent was released.
Ren Zhong's brow twitched uncontrollably, feeling a sudden unease.
"I say..."
He looked at the Black Clothes beside him, cautiously speaking: "Is it really necessary to be so excited just because we're encountering Da Chu Practitioners?"
Ren Zhong could clearly feel.
The Black Clothes were holding Sword Qi in hand, as if they were about to draw the sword at any moment...
The unease surfacing in his Heart Lake originated from this.
This person was a killing embryo.
Did the Paperman Sect create such a "monster" intending to turn on him?
"It's not excitement, it's Sword Intent acting."
Xie Xuanyi shook his sleeves, calmly saying: "A sword wants to kill, that's its sound."
In conversation.
His Divine Thought had already "seen" the identity of the approaching group.
Thus, the Killing Intent hidden within his sleeves was no longer concealed, dispersing, but not aimed at Ren Zhong... Instead, it swept toward the far-off shadowy obscurities.
"Is it so?"
Instinctively, Ren Zhong moved a bit away from the killing embryo beside him, smiling: "Rare is your interest, why not leave the rest to you?"
Xie Xuanyi coldly looked toward White Crane True Man.
"What an uninteresting person, of course, I'm merely saying..."
Ren Zhong sighed, clasping his hands behind his back.
He slightly turned his head, gazing at the desolate souls and ghosts enveloped by the dark clouds behind him, gently speaking: "Then next, let's proceed like the earlier massacre of 'Bingyou.' Let 'them' go first."
...
...
"Prince, please walk slower, be careful not to hurt yourself!"
"This Secret Tomb is too dark... How long can the 'Primordial Stones' carried by the Prince Mansion sustain us?"
"Ample enough. If used sparingly, they can at least last two more days."
Light fire illuminating.
A group from Jiangning Prince Mansion, about forty to fifty people, lined up like a long snake, was arduously navigating through the rocky crevices.
Xie Zhisu walked in the middle of the group, expressionless.
Before and behind him, four Yin God Venerable protected their path... Due to the assassination scandal in Li Kingdom, Jiangning Prince Mansion's reputation plummeted, and faced with the chance to redeem himself by Ren Shou Palace's reward, Xie Zhisu certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity. This time Jiangning Prince Mansion was all out, but unfortunately, before they engaged in battle, there was already a dismal outlook of failure. The losses were heavy at Fuqing Mountain tonight, with Jiangning's iron cavalry stationed at the foot of the mountain being ambushed by Hehuan Sect, losing over half. Xie Zhisu arranged for his cavalry to advance toward "Qiding Mountain," expressing his determination to wage war against the Evil Sect, while he took cultivators from the mountain aboard the Treasure Ship to temporarily retreat. If not for the temptation of the "Mountain Shifting Technique," Fuqing Mountain's Treasure Ship would have, like Xuanzhui Mountain, left this region, waiting for the situation to clear, the Treasure Ship would return and emerge as the centerpiece.
Unfortunately, all these plans fell apart, swallowed entirely by Lu Yuzhen's "Earth Abyss Transformation."
The iron cavalry decree hanging at Xie Zhisu's waist was now dimmed and rusted. Earlier, he traversed through the thick fog aboard the Treasure Ship and saw the cracked ground catastrophe... Because of the offensive mobilization orders at "Qiding Mountain," the iron cavalry brought by Jiangning Prince Mansion became mere fodder, likely lost entirely during the Secret Tomb's opening, becoming Earth Abyss nourishment.
Regarding the cavalry's demise, Xie Zhisu didn't feel distressed.
What he truly worried about...
Was this Bai Ze Secret Tomb, with no way in, only out.
As Da Chu's Aliased Prince.
As long as he lived, everything could be redone. He had Ren Shou Palace behind him, as well as the Taoist led by Chong Kan... Now that the South Border witnessed such mutations, even the "Wu Zhexian" perished, the foremost urgency was someone needed to leave the Miasma Realm and relay the rebellion information of the Three Great Sects back to the Imperial City. If he managed to escape from here, not only would the Great Chu Imperial City not punish him, it would lavish him with rewards!
However... things rarely go as planned.
The Treasure Ship that Prince Jiangning boarded drifted for a long time on the pitch-black Heart Lake, and they managed to dock. However, before they could get anywhere, they encountered a void tremor... After a thunderous roar, heaven and earth reshaped, and the group suddenly found themselves here. It is said this Bai Ze Secret Tomb hides great fortune, but Jiangning's team had sheer bad luck; they haven't sighted a "Secret Hall," only kept on marching.
