2487 Killing the tomb owner (1)
Mysterious and strange powers were not rare. They could always hurt people invisibly and cause people to lose their lives inexplicably.
Adventurers were always on guard against such things because they knew very well how serious the consequences would be.
A moment of carelessness might cost him his life.
For example, the ancient curse hidden in the gemstones and gold coins was impossible to guard against. Even if it was infected, one would not know.
However, if one could give up their greed, the curse would be lifted automatically, and they would turn into a Ghost Face and disappear.
At this time, he could take the gold coins away with ease.
It might sound simple, but who could guarantee that they wouldn’t be tempted by so many treasures?
But now, it was different.
With what had just happened, the big-bearded man and the others did not dare to have any extra thoughts, lest they really lose their lives.
Their fear of Tang Zhen and the various terrifying legends caused them to become more and more obedient.
At this moment, big beard and the others all had the same thought in their hearts, which was to obey the orders and leave this place safely.
If Tang Zhen was willing to give a reward, it would be considered an unexpected gain. If Tang Zhen was unwilling, then he would treat it as a wasted trip.
To be able to leave this place alive was more important than anything!
Just as the group of adventurers were collecting the spoils of war, Tang Zhen had already killed his way to the end of the passage until an underground hall appeared in front of him.
The main hall was ancient and mottled, the decorations on the building were eerie and strange, and the exaggerated embossed gave people a feeling that they were about to break out of the walls.
In such an environment, it gave people a very depressing feeling, as if they were being watched by countless eyes, trying to find something but finding nothing.
Tang Zhen had already confirmed that this place should be a tomb and a cultivator was buried here.
Judging from the information he had gathered, the other party’s strength was not too strong. Otherwise, with his current level, it would be impossible for him to enter this place so easily.
The monsters they had encountered earlier were probably The Guardian monsters of the mausoleum. Their source of food was the giant rats that lived in the caves.
The bearded adventurer had discovered the tomb. When he barged in, he was chased by The Guardian monsters and was later saved by Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen had entered once again, but he had come for wealth.
Although it would disturb the rest of a dead person, the wealth here was very important to Tang Zhen. Therefore, he had to take it away.
Of course, when he left, Tang Zhen would completely seal off the entrance to the tomb to ensure that no one would enter it in the future.
Based on Tang Zhen’s experience, the use of the runic magic formation on the coffin was clearly used to raise corpses.
After a creature died, the body and soul could not continue to merge. After the soul left the body, it would not take long for it to decay.
Cultivators could continue to live in their energy state, but if they were weak, they wouldn’t be able to live for long.
As a result, some cultivators had found a strange way to seal the soul and the body together by using some special means to prevent the corpse from decaying.
After that, he would look for the place where the energy gathered, which was also a place with good feng shui in the eyes of the people, build a tomb, and hide in it.
With the nourishment of earth and heaven energy, the corpses in the coffins would slowly change, and the features of demons would appear.
Its ability to contain souls would also become better and better. When it reached a certain level, it would become abnormally powerful.
Such cultivators could be promoted to King level or even higher, but they also had disadvantages.
Because it was a forced fusion, the body of such a cultivator would never be able to turn into energy. If the physical body was destroyed, it would really turn into ashes.
“I’m only here to take away the treasures that are of no use to you. I won’t disturb your cultivation.
If you can hear me, then stay here obediently and don’t do anything stupid.”
Tang Zhen said in an indifferent tone. His eyes seemed to have seen through the coffin and saw the scene inside.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement.
“If that’s the case, then it’s settled!”
Tang Zhen turned around and smiled at the big-bearded man and the others behind him, whose faces were filled with surprise. After which, he extended his hand and pointed at the two boxes beside him.
Just now, they still felt that the scene of Tang Zhen talking to the coffin was a little terrifying. However, when they saw the gold coins in the box, the fear of big beard and the others was immediately thrown away.
With so many gold coins and a large piece of energy gem, it almost drove them crazy with excitement.
Even if this wealth didn’t belong to him, as long as he could look at it and touch it, it would be a happy thing.
Tang Zhen could not help but feel a little worried when he saw so many gold coins. This was because he was unable to carry so many gold coins with him.
It would be great if he had a storage equipment. That way, he could store it and take it out when needed.
It was a pity that after entering this world, he was unable to use his storage equipment or his divine Kingdom in his mind. Otherwise, why would Tang Zhen be so aggrieved?
If it was possible, he could completely equip all his level 0 smurf account with godly equipment and attack the stronger monsters, reaching level 99 with one slash!
However, that would be too unfair to the other cultivators of loucheng, and the competition would lose its original meaning.
It wasn’t a good thing for Tang Zhen either. If he could wear Shen equipment, the other Lou Cheng cultivators could do the same and might even be more powerful than him.
If he were to encounter cultivators from the first three battle zones, Tang Zhen might not be a match for them and would most likely be eliminated.
In fact, Tang Zhen had also tried to contact the destiny scale to see if he could get a response. In the end, he discovered that it truly existed. However, his spiritual energy was unable to touch it.
For example, the door was right in front of him, and he could see the scenery behind the door through the crack. Unfortunately, he did not have enough strength to push the door open.
Tang Zhen was unable to determine the specific reason for this situation. After a few attempts, he could only helplessly give up.
Just as he was thinking to himself, a few meters behind him, a trace of black gas suddenly emerged from the huge coffin.
Black liquid seeped out of the cracks and flowed into the ancient runes. In an instant, the entire surface of the coffin was covered with liquid.
The huge coffin suddenly opened by itself. Then, a figure wearing a filthy robe burst out. He held a black sharp awl in his hand and stabbed it toward Tang Zhen.
A pair of green eyes under the bronze mask that was covered in rust was currently staring intently at Tang Zhen.
I knew you wouldn’t be satisfied. Since the gold coins are placed here, how can they be easily taken away by others? ”
Tang Zhen seemed to have anticipated that this scene would happen. Therefore, he coldly laughed as the longsword in his hand suddenly swept back toward the tomb owner who had launched a sneak attack on him.
“Dang!”
With a not-so-loud collision sound, the metal cone that looked like a staff was cut in half. The sword Qi swept across the mask of the tomb owner and cut it in half.
“Huala”
The mask fell to the ground, revealing a shriveled and hideous face. His mouth and nose were already festering in many places.
why didn’t you just lie down? why did you have to jump out and court death? ”
The tomb owner’s strength was slightly stronger than Tang Zhen’s, but his movements were slightly stiff. There was no need to fear him.
Although Tang Zhen’s cultivation had been sealed, he was still able to easily deal with the sneak attack of the monster. Killing it was only a matter of time.
Under the gazes of big beard and the other adventurers, the two sides exchanged more than ten rounds of blows. After that, Tang Zhen’s sword swept out.
The angle of the sword was very tricky. The tomb owner could not Dodge in time and his head was directly cut off.
“Pfft!”
As if a high-pressure tap had been turned on, the headless corpse of the tomb owner stood still. The foul-smelling blood soared into the sky, and then it fell straight to the ground.
Tang Zhen shook the longsword in his hand. He turned his head to look at the head that had rolled to the side and let out a cold snort.
“You’ve overestimated yourself,”
Tang Zhen’s eyes swept over the corpse of the tomb owner as he spoke. He had unintentionally seen an item that caused him to involuntarily reveal a smile.
