Chapter 244 The Demon Corpse in the Stone Statue (two-in-one chapter)(1/2)
‘Click~!’
‘Click~!’ ‘Click~!’…
There were more and more cracks on the stone statue, and a large number of stones rolled down from above. The hearts of the people present were tugging one after another. The depressing atmosphere made everyone's breathing extremely heavy.
The footsteps behind him disappeared, and someone looked back.
"It's Wanyulou." The man said softly.
The person who came was Wan Yulou of the Demon Sect, but at this moment, Wan Yulou seemed a little embarrassed. Her clothes seemed to have been touched by some corrosive substance, and they looked ragged. The three followers around him disappeared, but they didn't know whether they were dead or alive?
Wan Yulou ran here without saying anything. The depressing atmosphere made his already heavy mood become heavier. His eyes looked at the stone statue as everyone looked at the stone statue. The moment he saw the stone statue, his pupils in his eyes couldn't help but shrink.
"What a strong breath of death, is it..."
Wan Yulou stared at her eyes in horror. He seemed unwilling to think about it anymore. If the things inside were really as he imagined, the people present would probably not be able to leave here alive.
"Wan Yulou, have you guessed something?" The depressing atmosphere almost collapsed. Elder Tianqiong looked at Wan Yulou thoughtfully and asked what he was thinking.
Wan Yulou glanced at him and nodded slightly, as if he had answered his question.
"What the hell is that?" Song Ren's voice seemed a little fierce and restrained, and the deliberately lowered voice aggravated this feeling. His eyes were almost covered with bloodshot eyes, with a hint of madness.
Wan Yulou frowned, and with his temper, he should have made a few sarcastic words or quarrel with the other party. But this time, he was surprised not angry, but instead expressed his thoughts with a serious expression.
"If I guessed correctly, the thing inside should be the secret of my demon sect, a real demon corpse!" Wan Yulou said in a deep voice.
His face was very ugly. The demon corpse should have been the pride of their demon sect, but at this moment he could not be happy no matter what.
"Demon Corpse?" The three elders of Tianqiong couldn't help but look at Wan Yulou in confusion. Obviously, they didn't know what the Demon Corpse was.
Wan Yulou's eyes swept over the three of them, and finally stopped on Lin Xiao, who looked calm.
"You don't seem to be surprised at all?" Wan Yulou whispered.
"Is it useful to be surprised?" Lin Xiao asked back.
Wan Yulou glanced at him deeply, then moved his gaze away and spoke in a deep voice.
"This demon corpse is a unique corpse refining method discovered by my Demon Ancestor of the Demon Sect from an ancient classic. It can refine a corpse and restore it to half of its strength. At the same time, because it is already a dead corpse, it does not have so many shortcomings that living people have. It has no pain or fear, but can only perform tasks according to the master's orders. It is a very useful human-shaped weapon!"
As Wan Yulou tells the story, Elder Tianqiong and others also know what the devil corpse is.
It is said that the Demon Sect was prosperous a thousand years ago, and the nine sects of righteousness at that time were breathless and could only hide in a corner and live a frightened life. The root of all this was because the Demon Sect had a peerless genius that was rarely seen in ten thousand years.
This son broke through Yuanwu at the age of 20, and was already ranked as the fifth-level Yuanwu at the age of 30, and was ranked as the leader of the Demon Sect at the age of 35. At the age of 40, he was already the number one master in the world.
Because of his reputation and many feats he has created, he is called the Demon Ancestor.
The Demon Sect was the most popular under the leadership of the Demon Ancestor. No matter where he went, he always followed the attitude of those who followed me and those who rebelled against me and destroyed me. At that time, the nine sects of righteous path dared not stand up and uphold justice.
It was during that period that the Magic Sect reached its peak in history.
The Demon Ancestor likes to study, and he has been involved in both the Demon Sect classics and ancient miscellaneous notes. Now the mountain protection array at the headquarters of the Demon Sect was studied by the Demon Ancestor at that time. It is a third-grade illusion array that is no worse than the Wilderness Blood Resentment Array.
In addition to having outstanding achievements in formation, this Demon Ancestor also has many achievements in other aspects, and this Demon Corpse is one of them.
Back then, the Demon Ancestor accidentally found this incomplete corpse refining method from an ancient classic. As soon as he discovered it, he became interested. So after he had studied it hard for ten years, he finally completed the corpse refining method and successfully refined the first demon corpse.
Somehow, the Demon Ancestor did not disclose the method of refining the demon corpse, and after the research was successful, he hid it. From then on, no new demon corpse was refined. Therefore, the Demon Sect never knew that there was a vicious method of refining the demon corpse for a long time. It was also by chance that they found the scroll that recorded the method of refining the demon corpse, and then they learned this unknown secret.
A hundred years later, the Demon Ancestor had reached the peak of the ninth-level Yuan Martial Artsman. In order to find his way of breakthrough, he left the Demon Sect for a trip. Unexpectedly, he never came back after this. From then on, all kinds of deeds about the Demon Ancestor became legends. The Demon Sect, which had lost the Demon Ancestor, began to become worse than before. At this time, the nine sects of the righteous path began to rise, and later evolved into the current situation where the seven sects competed with the Demon Sect.
Decades ago, the Demon Sect found information about the Demon Ancestor to think about it, but this study made them very distressed. It took them decades to study how to break through this bloody spirit array, and then this scene happened today.
"The method of refining demon corpses is the highest secret in my Demon Sect. Until now, we cannot perfectly refine a powerful demon corpse." Wan Yulou said, "The aura spreading in this stone statue is very similar to the aura of a demon corpse, but this aura is more terrifying than the demon corpse refined by my Demon Sect. I don't want my guess to be true. You just want to be blessed!"
After Wan Yulou finished speaking, he stopped talking, and everyone's mood almost sank to the bottom with his words.
Is there really a demon corpse inside?
‘Bang~!’
A stone as big as a washbasin fell to the ground and fell into pieces.
It seemed like the hand that opened the curtain. As the stone peeled off, more stones began to peel off from the stone statue, and fell to the ground and made a dull collision sound.
"Prepare to face the enemy!" Elder Tianqiong said with a gloomy face, "Whether it is a demon corpse or not, the things in it must be not simple. It depends on whether it is dead or alive, it depends on this time!"
‘Clang~!’…
Everyone pulled out their respective weapons one after another. The four swords flashed with a cold and cold light, while Wan Yulou's weapon was a short hand halberd. This kind of strange weapon made Lin Xiao look at it a few more times.
‘Boom~!’
A sudden explosion...
In the smoke and dust, a tall black shadow suddenly rushed towards everyone.
"The enemy is here, be careful!"
In just one sentence, the black shadow appeared in front of everyone.
As we got closer, everyone could see clearly the appearance of the black shadow.
What kind of face is that?
The skin on his face was completely charred, as if a layer of black charcoal was applied on it. His eyes were blood-red and shiny. There was no pupil at all, just a pair of completely blood-red eyes. There was no nose or mouth on his face, and he didn't even have ears. There was no hair on his bare head, but there was a line of white patterns on it, like a rune. His hands were thick. His ten fingers were much longer than normal people, and his ten nails were like ten daggers, and they were shining with black light. His body was not the skin of a normal person, but a kind of horny skin like a good thing armor, with dense bulges on it, as if there were sharp thorns, almost covered with murderous weapons.
‘Swish~!’
Five black lights slashed through the void. When they came to this side from a distance, they saw the demon corpse bent their legs slightly, and their bodies had already jumped over the heads of everyone, and followed by black and shiny claws.
‘Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding ~!’…
A series of attacks were blocked by everyone's efforts, and the huge force made everyone's legs bent and stomp the ground below.
With a loud bang, the demon corpse fell on the ground not far away and turned around suddenly.
With blood-red eyes, you seemed to be able to see the scene in Shura Purgatory. You knew that he had no mouth, but you seemed to hear a shocking roar in your ears.
The next moment, the demon corpse supported the ground with both hands, and only a rumbling sound was heard, and a shock wave was raised. The demon corpse actually attacked them at a speed several times faster than before.
"careful!"
I don’t know who made a shout, but at this time they couldn’t care about these things.
The demon corpse was too fast and too strong. Even Wan Yulou, who seemed the strongest on the surface, was far from his opponent.
The first attack made them seem a little busy, and this attack was far better than before. Almost everyone felt desperate in their hearts, and they could hardly have the idea of resisting the powerful demon corpse.
‘Boom~!’
A black shadow flashed and the elder of Shaoyang Sect groaned.
Everyone quickly turned around and saw the scene of the dismemberment of the elder of Shaoyang Sect.
The sharp claws of the demon corpse directly tore open his body. The so-called defense is as fragile as tofu under the sharp claws of the demon corpse. The first one was torn off was his right arm, and the entire right arm, along with the sword he would not want to let go until death, was thrown out and rolled into the distance. The next one was torn off was his legs, both legs broke at the same root, and was stomped by the big feet of the demon corpse, making a sound that made people want to cover their ears. He had lost his legs and right arm, but he was not dead yet, but unfortunately the demon corpse did not intend to let him go. He waved his sharp claws, and his big head was instantly cut into four parts and dropped on the ground next to him.
"Escape~!"
I don’t know if it was Elder Tianqiong or Elder Song’s shout, but almost when the shouts fell, the three of them turned around and fled to the passage when they came.
The three of them ran away, but Lin Xiao stood there without moving. He looked at the demon corpse who turned his head and looked at the blood-red and sin-filled demonic corpse here. He actually grinned at him.
"The fifth-level Yuan Warrior is not bad!" Lin Xiao murmured in a low voice.
This demon corpse is very strong, and the cultivation level of the fifth-level Yuan martial artist in the later stage is that even if he becomes a demon corpse, he no longer knows how to use the martial arts in front of him, but he still has a combat power of about 580 points.
Such strength is naturally not something that Wan Yulou and others can compete with. However, Lin Xiao is not afraid of him. Not to mention that his combat power of more than 700 points after his transformation of Titan can easily kill him. Even if he does not transform, his combat power can reach more than 570 points just using a comet strike.
After retracting his sword and returning to the sheath, Lin Xiao took out the old magic wand and held it in his hand.
The improved comet strike plus the increase of the old wand is enough to make his attack reach an extremely terrifying level.
With his toes on the ground, Lin Xiao's body instantly crossed hundreds of meters away and appeared in the air.
The highest height of the entire cave is only more than 300 meters. Even if Lin Xiao wants to fly to the height, he is impossible. I believe that the demon corpse can jump to this height with just one leap, but don’t forget that there is a process time for jumping.
"Black guy, come and beat me!" Lin Xiao hooked his finger at the demon corpse below and shouted with a look of needing a beating.
Although the demon corpse had lost its spiritual intelligence, there were still some instincts remaining in his body. Obviously, Lin Xiao's action seemed to have really angered him. He threw away the corpse in his hand that had lost its vitality, bent his legs and his body suddenly soared into the sky.
‘Swish~!’
Lin Xiao left his original position like lightning. The demon corpse who could not control the direction of his advance in mid-air could not change the direction at all. He could only hit his head towards his original position.
‘Boom~!’
The demon corpse directly hit the top of the hard cave. The moment his body stopped, Lin Xiao took action.
"A comet strike!"
A dazzling magic beam shot out from the tip of the old wand, forming an illusory fist phantom in the air, hitting the demon corpse that had just grabbed the top of the cave.
‘Rumbling~~~~~!!!’
A huge roar like an atomic bomb exploded echoed in the cave. The smoke and dust in the sky blocked Lin Xiao's vision, making him unable to see clearly what the hit demon corpse was like.
On the other side, the demon corpse hit by a comet fell weakly to the ground down, and a giant pit with a diameter of 100 meters in the top cave kept falling from it.
The entire cave was reinforced by formations, and even so, Lin Xiao's attack caused such huge damage, as powerful as a demon corpse, and was dazed and lost the ability to control his body.
"Storm!"
To be continued...
