Chapter 174: The Black Corpse in the coffin
Chapter 174: Black Corpse in the Casket
The white pole gun was thrown once again, hitting the puppet’s right leg.
It was as if it had been cast a static spell, one moment it was waving its huge sword mightily and powerfully, and the next moment it was stabbed in the body by the white pole gun, and suddenly it stood still.
Success!
Seeing that the last puppet had finally been resolved, Xu Chuniang let out a long sigh of relief and sat down on the ground panting heavily.
Although she hadn’t fought these early Foundation Establishment puppets head-on, the pressure they brought was real, and the slightest negligence would put her life in danger.
In order to find an opportunity to strike, she did not hesitate to use her body to resist the sword light several times.
Fortunately, her body forging had been completed, and there was an extremely high grade spiritual weapon Tian Silkworm Soft Armor to protect her body, and only then was she able to barely resist one sword light after another.
After Xu Chuniang rested for a moment, she put away the four puppets scattered in the stone room.
All of these puppets had varying degrees of breakage on them, but without exception, their central organs had all been destroyed.
The center pivot organ was the most important part of the puppet, equivalent to a human cultivator’s Yuan Shen.
They were now like cultivators who had lost their Yuan Shen, and were only left with a shell that was unable to move and had no consciousness.
Although puppetry was declining in the Qian Luo Realm, if there was an opportunity to refine a suitable center pivot organ in the future, it might be possible to repair these puppets.
After putting the puppets away, Xu Chuniang didn’t rush to enter the chamber with the stone door wide open, but instead dealt with her injuries and meditated to recover.
The more at such a critical juncture, the more calm one had to be.
Earlier, just pushing open the stone door of the chamber had startled four early stage Foundation Establishment puppets, and there might be other crises hidden in the chamber.
Xu Chuniang opened her eyes again, and the chamber was still as dim as ever.
She estimated based on the speed at which she was drawing in aura that a day and night had already passed.
The aura was back to full strength, and those wounds on her body had scabbed over, no longer bleeding.
Xu Chuniang gripped the white polearm tightly and got up to walk towards the middle of the chamber.
Stepping into the tomb chamber, the expected attack did not come.
The chamber contained nothing but a huge coffin placed right in the center, which was similarly covered in black lines.
The rest of the place was empty, making the chamber appear somewhat vacant.
Xu Chuniang stared at the coffin, her brows slightly furrowed.
Based on the murals in the stone chamber, it could be deduced that this was most likely the burial place of that female ruler.
She hadn’t known that this place was a mausoleum beforehand, and only realized this after entering the stone chamber.
This mausoleum revealed oddities everywhere, the answer might be right in front of her, but looking at the coffin in front of her, she hesitated.
The dead were the most important, and it was already wrong for her to rashly intrude into another person’s long resting place.
If she were to open the coffin, it would be even more offensive to that dead female ruler.
While Xu Chuniang was hesitating, the coffin suddenly vibrated.
It first shook lightly for a moment, then shook violently, and the top layer of the thick cover was suddenly lifted off!
Xu Chuniang was shocked, her body took a few steps back, staring at the movement in the coffin, could it be that the female ruler had resurrected?
A withered corpse, black in color, sat up from the coffin.
It opened its eyes and looked over towards where Xu Chuniang was, its red eyes revealing a light of hatred.
Being stared at by such a gaze, Xu Chuniang felt a numbness in her scalp.
The sense of oppression it brought was even stronger than the four Early Foundation Establishment puppets from before!
But the thing in front of her that she didn’t know whether it was a man or a ghost was clearly a man in life, not that female ruler at all ah, how could it appear in the coffin?
It let out a shrill whistle and leapt out of the coffin, its speed was extremely fast as it attacked and killed towards Xu Chuniang.
Xu Chuniang’s face changed again and again, it was so fast, not like a puppet, more like a “silver corpse” refined by evil cultivators. Only in front of this body is pure black, there is a lingering black smoke, called “black corpse” more appropriate.
She grabbed out a handful of sprinting talismans and slapped them on her body, then rolled on the ground to avoid the pounce. When she heard the sound of the wind behind her, she hurriedly dodged to the side again.
The black corpse ten fingers ruthlessly inserted, stabbed in Xu Chuniang just lay over the position, actually deep into the middle of three inches.
This scene to see Xu Chuniang eyelids straight twitching, if she was just under this solid on, I’m afraid the body must appear ten blood holes.
The black body nails of the sharp, as if on top of the white pole gun!
The black corpse whistled and attacked again, its fingertips brushing against her body, cutting a hole in the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor.
Xu Chuniang’s face sank like water, the Heavenly Silkworm Soft Armor, which was a Grade 1 Extreme Spiritual Artifact, was as fragile as a thin layer of paper in front of the black corpse.
The strength of this black corpse, I’m afraid, was no weaker than a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Soon, she was struck by the black corpse due to her inability to dodge, and several more bloody holes instantly appeared on her back, and blood flowed like a stream.
Xu Chuniang sucked in her breath, squeezing the spiritual qi in her body, forcing her speed to the extreme, circling around the coffin, woefully dodging the black corpse.
But the gap between strengths wasn’t so easy to eliminate, new wounds appeared on her body from time to time, and her meridians were also throbbing slightly due to the overly drastic loss of spiritual energy.
Can’t go on like this, Xu Chuniang realized this very clearly, must find the weakness of the black corpse, otherwise her life will definitely be accounted for here.
But at this moment, the black corpse was as fast as a shadow, once again coming at a rapid pace, grabbing heavily at her back.
In order to avoid this strike, Xu Chuniang’s body was off-balance, and her waist slammed heavily into the coffin.
To finish!
Xu Chuniang’s heart was beating fast, and she could even feel the trembling of her skin all over her body.
The black corpse was too powerful, and she didn’t even have the power to fight back in front of it.
However, the expected pain did not come.
She unexpectedly turned around, but caught a glimpse of the black corpse with a look of wanting to go forward but not daring to do so, as if it had some scruples.
Seeing her look, the black corpse let out a gust of low roar of unknown meaning, seemingly warning of something.
Xu Chuniang quickly realized that the black corpse was afraid of the coffin underneath her, which is why it was slow to act.
Her heart lit up with hope, if that was the case, utilizing the black corpse’s casting of the mouse, she might be able to win a ray of hope.
The black corpse kept roaring, seeing that the intruder never left the coffin, it finally became angry and came forward to try to tear her apart.
Only his speed was more than several times slower than before.
Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, and without slowing down, she rolled over and moved to the other side of the coffin.
The black corpse was agitated, but it regarded the coffin as more important than its life, and only carefully stepped around it.
When he circled around to the other side, Xu Chuniang only lightly a prancing, one person and one corpse between another coffin.
She was still running for her life, and the black corpse was chasing her, but the situation was much better than before.
Xu Chuniang stared at the black corpse in front of her, her mind constantly pondering.
This thing in front of her, at first glance, it looked like the silver corpse of the Foundation Establishment that she had previously encountered, but that silver corpse only had the instinct to kill dead things, that is, in the face of its master Fan Youdao, there was not even the slightest fear of fear.
And the black corpse seems to remain in the consciousness of the general, not only have the emotion will roar, and the coffin as an important thing in the guardian.
Xu Chuniang thought for a moment, in a way, this and the puppet have similarities.
All the puppets she had encountered in this mausoleum had strictly carried out the order to kill the intruders until they were destroyed.
Xu Chuniang looked down at the coffin beside her, in which lay a woman wearing a golden crown and fancy clothes.
