Chapter 1482 - Sincere Cooperation
He entered an undead knight nest? s.h.i.+ Hao was incredibly shocked. He mysteriously entered this type of danger spot. This was definitely not some good place, a single mistake and he would die here.
It was because the undead knights were too mysterious, a completely different species from him. Moreover, the most annoying part of this type of creature was that once they were disturbed, most of those who opened up their tombs died miserable deaths. Even if they managed to get away in the end, they still wouldn’t have good conclusions.
Now, there was not just one or two undead knights, but a whole nest of them!
s.h.i.+ Hao’s scalp became numb, his face expressionless. He stood there quietly.
That stalk of immortal medicine was also dumbstruck, losing its head out of fear. It had just escaped from the depths of the most ancient burial land, yet in the end, it entered this ‘den of wolves’.
A group of undead knights looked over, staring at s.h.i.+ Hao, and then at the immortal medicine, their eyes all cold and deep, some also extremely empty, lacking life force.
This made one feel as if their skin was being p.r.i.c.ked, a stinging pain, even more so ice-cold, as if they had been targeted by a group of malicious spirits.
s.h.i.+ Hao felt uneasy. There was already an undead knight leaving, so he couldn’t back off now. Moreover, it wasn’t an ordinary creature, but rather a monster with three heads and six arms, entire body pitch-black like ink. Dark light flickered from time to time, death aura spreading over.
This undead knight was at least in the Self Release Realm, strength extremely strong.
s.h.i.+ Hao braced himself, walking forward into this s.p.a.cious area. He chose a favorable position for himself, at the same time observing if there were others coming out.
This was an open market with quite a few undead knights coming and going. It was as if they had set up stalls, quite a few of the items strange ancient artifacts.
“A de la duo a…”
Up ahead, a person pointed, releasing this type of voice, pointing at the immortal medicine, and then looked towards s.h.i.+ Hao.
What was the meaning of this? s.h.i.+ Hao didn’t understand!
He felt a headache. Could it be that bloodshed was inevitable?
He looked into the distance. There were a few creatures that were no different from him, lacking death energy, but they were unordinary, possessing heroic appearances. These were Golden Undead Knights.
s.h.i.+ Hao"s eyes flickered with light. He decided to take the risk, go for a gamble, pretend to be a Golden Undead Knight. He immediately put on a pretense, coldly looking around, not saying anything.
Then, he pointed at the immortal medicine, hinting for it to come over.
At the same time, he transmitted sound, saying, “If you don’t want to be planted in a great grave again, its best if you stay at my side, stay close to me!”
The immortal medicine felt extremely speechless. This fella really dared to threaten it even at this point, he really was ridiculously composed!
All long life medicines had their own consciousness, all of them able to speak. Back then, s.h.i.+ Hao had previously even had a conversation with the ‘White Tortoise Carrying Immortal’.
“You are in an even more dangerous situation than me, yet you dare boast shamelessly?” After the immortal medicine calmed down a bit, it secretly transmitted.
“We share interests, this is to prevent you from falling into the undead knight’s hands, planted in a grave, so accompany me, pretend that I am a Golden Undead Knight.” s.h.i.+ Hao quickly replied.
The immortal medicine was immediately shocked. Then, after a wave of hesitation, it decisively flew over. It felt like this human was too daring, perhaps this method really might work.
“It is best if you play your part! If you harm me, I will definitely expose you! Then, you will definitely die without a proper burial!” The old medicine warned.
It really couldn’t feel at ease, scared that s.h.i.+ Hao would directly eat it. After all, it was a stalk of long life medicine, something almost all creatures wanted.
“Relax, we are ants on the same thread right now!” s.h.i.+ Hao had it calm down, try its best to play along.
Who would have expected these two to cooperate, one man one medicine? This type of cooperation really was strange, especially since that medicine was an immortal root!
Not long ago, these two were like fire and water!
“You have to understand that once you are exposed, at most, I’ll be brought away, brought before an Undead King to become its coffin, while you will definitely be ripped apart! No, you’ll be refined into a burial slave, truly suffering a fate where it is better to be dead rather than alive!”
The immortal medicine continued to dawdle about, trying its best to make s.h.i.+ Hao understand the consequences of harming it, trying to scare him, fearing that s.h.i.+ Hao might have bad intentions.
“Just relax!” s.h.i.+ Hao replied, and then said, “Time is pressing, hurry and reply to them, or teach me the ancient burial language, make me look more like a Golden Undead Knight.”
He believed that this old medicine definitely understood the burial language after living in this ancient land for so long. Moreover, its understanding of Golden Undead Knights and other things definitely far surpa.s.sed normal people.
“Mo sal ni ga luo…”
The old medicine surprisingly played along, its roots and tender branches becoming less than a foot tall, landing on s.h.i.+ Hao’s shoulder, immediately speaking a line.
It accompanied s.h.i.+ Hao, helping him get out of this dangerous situation. However, it still hung onto the chest like its life depended on it, not willing to give it up.
“Ga gu mi mu…” In the distance, an undead knight walked over, smiling extremely brilliantly. He looked under thirty, but his strength was terrifying.
He reached the peak of Self Release Realm, moreover, he was a Golden Undead Knight!
He had a head of long golden hair that was extremely dazzling, fluttering in front of his chest and behind him like a great golden river. This was clearly an undead knight, but he was even more divine than a divine being, precious mist fluttering about him.
The old medicine was like a traitor, chattering away with this Golden Undead Knight, its speed of talking extremely fast.
“It really is strange, Golden Undead Knights are extremely few even in that most ancient burial land. Unless there is an important occasion, there wouldn’t be this many gathering.”
The long life tree conversed with the undead knight while secretly transmitting sound to s.h.i.+ Hao. It really was confused.
This was extremely strange. Golden Undead Knights were extremely few in number, heirs of the ancient undead knights with the most powerful bloodlines. Normally speaking, they wouldn’t appear in such large numbers.
Meanwhile, there were at least several dozen of them here!
There were men and women among them, all of them surrounded by immortal mist, divine and auspicious, as if a group of the most powerful deities’ heirs had descended into this Burial Earth.
“Don’t just try to talk to him alone, hurry and teach me a bit of the ancient burial language, teach me line by line. I have to talk to them myself, or else our cover will be blown soon!” s.h.i.+ Hao said.
There were so many undead knights around them, it was extremely dangerous!
Even with the Everlasting Sword Core at his side that definitely had some intimidating use, once it was truly exposed, it might only bring about an even greater danger!
It was because he might provoke the greed of powerful undead knights, they might come to seize the sword core.
The old medicine was unwilling, but it still taught him line by line, allowing s.h.i.+ Hao to converse with the Golden Undead Knight before him.
Even though the language was strange, the p.r.o.nunciation peculiar, understanding it difficult, s.h.i.+ Hao could now still communicate normally with the undead knight before him.
“Dao brother is formidable after all, bringing a long life medicine. I believe you will definitely have great returns in this instance of Burial Abyss exploration!” This extremely brilliant golden-haired male who shone like a sun said.
He was quite easygoing and calm, carrying a warm smile as he chatted in a friendly manner.
s.h.i.+ Hao was speechless. This was clearly a burial knight! In his understanding, they were fiends among fiends, yet now, the other party seemed even more pure and holy than him.
He felt like he needed to quickly change his perception, no longer view the undead knights as ghosts. This was a strange race, calling them the descendants of devil immortals seemed fitting.
At the same time, s.h.i.+ Hao’s mind was rising and falling with emotions, greatly shaken up. It was because the other party actually mentioned some Burial Abyss. What kind of place was that? Would he be able to obtain things by bringing the long life medicine with him?
No wonder the old medicine wasn’t willing to teach him the burial language, it seemed like there were hidden secrets inside!
s.h.i.+ Hao dealt with this on his own, carefully replying while threatening the long life medicine, telling it to quickly explain what Burial Abyss was, what kind of benefits there were if he went there.
“It’s best if you give up immediately, don’t even think about it!” The old medicine was incredibly upset, decisively refusing.
s.h.i.+ Hao’s divine senses were sharp, he immediately knew that the Burial Abyss wasn’t some good place for long life medicines. It was quite scared, even more so unwilling to proceed.
“If you don’t cooperate, we will be exposed soon. I have no way of chatting with him about these things, I can’t blend in.” s.h.i.+ Hao warned.
“We have something to clear up first. Once we truly head out, the two of us can move completely, meaning that I can leave whenever I want. You cannot restrict me, or else either the fish dies or the net splits!” The long life tree said.
s.h.i.+ Hao was stupefied. Soon afterwards, he understood that the ‘heading out’ it spoke of pointed towards going into Burial Abyss.
He was stunned, he definitely didn’t want to enter some burial clan secret earth. Now, it seemed like something extremely troublesome has arisen!
“Don’t worry, I don’t have any interest in that so-called Burial Abyss! If I could, I would want to leave right now!” s.h.i.+ Hao consoled.
After reaching a mutual agreement like this, the man and medicine finally sincerely cooperated.
This place was unordinary after all, actually adjacent to an ancient and mysterious black abyss. Even for the undead knights, that place was unfathomable.
Even the undead knights who had lived for endless years didn’t understand it, revering it greatly!
When s.h.i.+ Hao heard of this type of situation, he was immediately shocked. In his perspective, the undead knights were definitely strange individuals who couldn’t be seen through.
However, now, he discovered that this was a place that was difficult for even them to set foot in. It really was unimaginable.
“The Burial Kings might know more, but they never spoke about this.” The old medicine said.
Today, it was time for this Burial Abyss to be opened again. A few Golden Undead Knights came here for natural luck.
It was because each time Burial Abyss was opened, there would be heavenly treasures, stele sutras and other things that appeared. Those who were lucky would be able to grasp them.
