Chapter 1481 - Accidentally Entering the Underground Manor
s.h.i.+ Hao chased anxiously. He was a bit annoyed, and also a bit speechless. This was just a stalk of immortal medicine, yet it actually fought with him over the rotten wooden chest, seizing this mysterious chest.
Could it be that it knew something, and that was why it led s.h.i.+ Hao into the vile earth, in the end even taking the advantage to seize his natural luck?!
“If you don’t leave behind the chest, when I catch you, I am going to directly stew you!” s.h.i.+ Hao threatened.
This long life tree was extremely fast, moving on the surface. It moved through the mist like a streak of flowing light, extremely fast, completely unstoppable.
When it heard this threat, this precious tree became faster, clearly scared badly. At the same time, it also acted to resist s.h.i.+ Hao’s threat.
s.h.i.+ Hao took action. Lightning dao symbols flickered, streak after streak of lightning shot out, moving through the earth to strike it. Unfortunately, this medicine was too fast, leaving behind afterimages, continuously changing directions, avoiding all of them.
Hong!
s.h.i.+ Hao condensed a fist imprint, striking out, directly blasting through this earth layer. Dazzling light was released, making this place cave in, releasing an intense great earthquake.
At this moment, the mountain region on the surface broke apart, completely collapsing. Rubble and other things rushed into the sky, blasting through the clouds.
The long life medicine ran even faster. It didn’t have extremely great combat strength, but it was an escape master, few could compare to it. At the same time, it could pa.s.s through all types of magical formations’ restrictions.
“Where do you think you are going?” s.h.i.+ Hao grinded his teeth in annoyance. This medicine was too cunning, actually leaving him further and further behind. If not for him locking onto its aura, he would have long lost it.
“Over there!” In the sky, Emperor Clan’s young expert, Gu Clan’s inheritor, and the Fearless Lion chased over. They saw that this part of the mountain region collapse, smoke rus.h.i.+ng into the heavens.
Chi!
Three streaks of light shot over, every single one as thick as a mountain peak. They all blasted apart the great earth, making this place rumble.
Giant streaks of light entered the depths of the earth, forming a terrifying black great abyss!
s.h.i.+ Hao frowned. He was almost struck. This result was extremely terrible. He was already trying to chase down this long life medicine, and now he was even being disturbed by others, forced to deal with the three great experts.
Moreover, after this disturbance, the long life medicine actually disappeared!
“Get lost!”
s.h.i.+ Hao was resentful, rus.h.i.+ng out from the ground’s surface, directly sending several fists out, powerful and domineering. The sky dome immediately collapsed, large amounts of cracks extending in all directions.
The three great experts dodged, not taking on the blow. They frowned, not wis.h.i.+ng to fight against him. Intercepting the immortal medicine was what was most important. They were worried that it would use this opportunity to disappear without a trace.
“Void Ripples!” Gu Clan’s young expert released a shout, displaying a type of secret method. The s.p.a.ce all around him immediately resonated, divine light turning into ripples, spreading in all directions.
“It’s over there!” He released a shout, pointing in a direction.
Gu Clan grasped the spatial great dao, extremely sensitive towards the world’s void. Just now, he used a type of innate secret method to sense the surrounding creatures, locating the long life medicine.
s.h.i.+ Hao naturally wouldn’t fall behind. He also rushed over. He held a leaf from that medicine, so he also sensed that it was over there.
Hong!
During the process, s.h.i.+ Hao wasn’t polite at all, taking the initiative to attack the three individuals, sending a streak of lightning over. This streak of lightning was extremely unordinary, carrying lightning pool imprints.
Great heavenly tribulation was almost guided over on the spot!
The main thing was that right now, s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t have enough time to prepare, having no way of producing the most powerful lightning tribulation.
However, despite this being the case, the Fearless Lion was still shocked. When it stared at s.h.i.+ Hao, it surged with killing intent, deciding that it was going to kill him now that he was outside of Imperial Pa.s.s.
They fought while chasing after the long life medicine. Soon afterwards, they separated. Because s.h.i.+ Hao had the connection from the leaf, he entered the ground alone, chasing after that ‘thief’.
He saw that tree several times, carrying that wooden chest, fading in and out of existence right before his eyes.
It had to be said that its speed really was too shocking. Regardless of whether it was the foreign side’s three great experts or s.h.i.+ Hao, they were all left behind.
It was because it was an immortal medicine, its earth escape method brought to the point of perfection. The other creatures had no way of comparing to it, not even s.h.i.+ Hao’s powerful strength enough, at the very least, he was inferior to its escape methods.
Hong!
Suddenly, the immortal medicine rushed out from the ground surface, rus.h.i.+ng high up into the sky. It flew in the void, speed astonis.h.i.+ng and incomparable.
When s.h.i.+ Hao rushed over as well, all of the bones in his body released loud and clear sounds, radiance surging outwards. Then, he discovered that his own flesh and blood were reconstructed.
In the distance, the three great foreign young experts were also like this, their flesh being reproduced, recovering.
When they turned around, they discovered that they were already far from that holy land and vile earth, which was why the abnormalities that happened to their bodies had disappeared without a trace.
“Did that female undead knight leave?” s.h.i.+ Hao turned around towards the direction of the holy land. He didn’t believe the so-called b.u.t.terfly incarnation this entire time, firmly believing that he wasn’t living the dream of another.
Unfortunately, he didn’t see the female undead knight. This time, he couldn’t rationalize why.
In reality, when he discovered the three skeletons in the vile earth, he already understood why it was like this. It definitely had something to do with that ancient land, and not the b.u.t.terfly incarnation.
“Huang, hand over your life!”
After the flesh and blood regenerated, the Fearless Lion became more and more resplendent, golden mane hanging down to the ground. Its golden body was ma.s.sive, hair s.h.i.+ning, making it look like a sun.
Its voice was extremely great, possessing powerful explosive force. If its cultivation was a bit higher, it could simply make the sun, moon, and stars fall from the heavens!
“Your hostility against me is that strong?” s.h.i.+ Hao first gave it a look, and then looked at the immortal medicine that disappeared into the horizon.
“What a pity, time is pressing. Otherwise, I would immediately wipe out your entire traitorous clan!” s.h.i.+ Hao said, chasing after it again.
“I don’t need a reason to kill you!” The Fearless Lion said coldly. With a hong sound, a large golden claw slapped outwards, surrounding this part of the sky.
The Fearless Lion’s power was something difficult for others to fathom.
What it displayed was the ‘Kingdom Within Palm’ of the past ancient monk bloodline. It formed a world, wis.h.i.+ng to make s.h.i.+ Hao stay behind, completely refine him.
“I forgot to tell you that not long ago, I killed three golden lions in the vile earth. When I have the time, it will be your turn!” s.h.i.+ Hao said. The sword core in his hands shone, releasing a world-shaking strike. Before the monk kingdom within the palm closed, the sword hacked open the universe, allowing him to rush out.
Hong!
The Gu Clan expert took action. A time spear flew out, piercing through heaven and earth, aiming at s.h.i.+ Hao’s lower back.
Dang!
s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t turn around. The Imperishable Scripture appeared on the surface of the sword core, brilliant and intimidating. With a turn of the sword, that astonis.h.i.+ng spear was hacked through.
“Remember, after I seize that rotten wooden chest, I will definitely settle things with you all!” s.h.i.+ Hao said. He then chased after it again.
Suddenly, a wave of icy coldness swept out. This entire region became extremely still and cold. There was a lot of plant life on the ground, also stretching quite tall, but they just gave off a bit of a cold feeling. The trees all looked like they were petrified, not moving at all.
s.h.i.+ Hao sped along, not willing to stop for rest. Sure enough, he discovered the immortal medicine’s traces again. He rushed into this region.
Right now, the long life immortal medicine’s speed became a bit slower. It continuously cursed out, because it was too tired. Even though its innate escape methods were unmatched, after being chased down like this, it was still starting to run out of stamina.
Regardless of where it ran, that person could still catch up to it, moreover ultimately find it. This left it feeling a bit helpless.
Chi!
It entered the ground again, entering the deathly still bitter cold earth.
s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t hesitate, also rus.h.i.+ng down. In that instant, he entered the depths of this quiet ancient land, arriving underground, chasing after the immortal medicine.
Suddenly, s.h.i.+ Hao felt as if something wasn’t quite right. The gloominess here made his skin produce small gooseb.u.mps, as if his soul was even about to be frozen solid, just too cold.
Peng!
The immortal medicine stumbled as if it was a person, almost falling. Then, it moved past the obstacle in its way before running again.
Meanwhile, when s.h.i.+ Hao pa.s.sed by this place, a deathly white hand appeared from the darkness, grabbing his arm. That type of icy-coldness was enough to make even one’s bones freeze.
There was a coffin here. Suddenly, a deathly pale palm reached out from the darkness, grabbing his arm. That icy-coldness made even one’s bone marrow freeze.
s.h.i.+ Hao’s fine hairs stood on end, not expecting to encounter this type of strange thing. Fortunately, his reaction was fast enough, even though his arm made contact, he broke free, not being grabbed.
Undead knight!
s.h.i.+ Hao immediately understood. No wonder there was that gloomy coldness before! He actually accidentally entered a burial land branch vein, entering inside.
Hou!
A great roar sounded. Black mists surged. The coffin in the back completely split open, a terrifying creature struggling free, chasing after s.h.i.+ Hao.
An undead knight that had been asleep for endless years was alarmed, coming out of the coffin to hunt him down!
The only fortunate thing was that even though the undead knight’s cultivation realm was higher than his, it wasn’t too ridiculously so, unable to immediately lock down this place.
s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t have any interest in confronting it, immediately turning around to run, still chasing after that stalk of long life medicine.
“There should only be one undead knight, right?” s.h.i.+ Hao said to himself. If he ended up rus.h.i.+ng into an undead knight pit, then that would be much more troublesome.
However, based on normal reasoning, the creatures here liked to remain asleep. If he was a bit more careful and prudent, there shouldn’t be too many issues.
The immortal medicine ran extremely quickly, fleeing for its life. That undead knight’s appearance startled it, because just now, it was almost caught as well.
One had to understand that it came precisely from the very depths of the Ancient Burial Region. It definitely didn’t want to enter the hands of that type of creature again.
It already lost its trunk, having it refined into a coffin by a Burial King.
Suddenly, s.h.i.+ Hao s.h.i.+vered inwardly, because the underground aura here was sinister. Moreover, the temperature became colder and colder, making him more and more worried.
Ah...
Suddenly, shrill sounds rang out, released by immortal medicine.
s.h.i.+ Hao was shocked. What did that fella encounter? He really wanted to withdraw, yet he didn’t want to just give up like this, so he braced himself and advanced a bit further.
The immortal medicine wanted to return the way it came, but in the end, it ran right into s.h.i.+ Hao. it immediately panicked, having no choice but to turn around and run, charging forward.
s.h.i.+ Hao was deeply shocked. They arrived at an underground layer where many strange stone walls surrounding them. The immortal medicine actually couldn’t pa.s.s through, effectively blocked.
After who knew how much time had pa.s.sed, the area ahead suddenly opened up!
The immortal medicine rushed out, moreover releasing a cry of alarm, in great alarm.
Immediately afterwards, s.h.i.+ Hao also rushed out from underground, entering a strange place.
He immediately became a bit stupefied. He managed to finally leave the underground world, return to the surface? However, he still felt like something wasn’t quite right, this should still be the underground depths, yet he only saw a s.p.a.cious ancient land.
There was no earth in the way, this place looked like an open market.
One could see figures everywhere, even more so some strange objects on the ground. Those creatures were exchanging and selling things.
s.h.i.+ Hao was stupefied. What kind of place was this?
Was it really a village market?
Something wasn’t right, this was clearly the underground depths!
Soon afterwards, he understood, and then he s.h.i.+vered all over in fear. This was an area that belonged to the undead knights, their open market. He actually ran into so many of them!
Moreover, he saw a few undead knights who lacked death energy, extremely peaceful, about the same in appearance as regular creatures. He immediately knew that these were Golden Undead Knights!
