Chapter 456
The other Martial Kings looked at Wu Mingxu with great vigilance. Someone who could take out a Martial King's Dao Core in one move like this must be very strong, far stronger than them.
However, they still felt that there were a few Martial Kings on their side. If they attacked Wu Mingxu, they still had a high chance of winning!
Wu Mingxu stood by Qin Yun and company's side. Against such a siege, he could not take even half a step away from Qin Yun and company. Otherwise, they would be able to take advantage of each other!
"It doesn't matter who you are. You stole the Dao core to consume, which violates the taboo. We're going to take you down!" A Bloodline Martial King, his old face full of anger, shouted, "Let's go!"
In a battle between multiple Martial Kings, Qin Yun and company would be caught. Even if they were not attacked, they would still be affected. At that time, Wu Mingxu would also have to withdraw his hand to protect them.
This was what the Martial Kings were thinking. They believed that Wu Mingxu would definitely spare some of his strength to protect Qin Yun and company.
However, as they walked over, Wu Mingxu waved his hand and a few cold lights flashed out. Several sharp daggers flew out and pierced through the hearts of those Martial Kings.
Soon after, the few blood-stained short swords returned to Wu Mingxu's hands!
When Qin Yun and company saw it, they were alarmed. He could tell that Wu Mingxu had used a strong mental power to control the flying dagger.
Of course, those daggers were no ordinary daggers!
The dagger held in Wu Mingxu's hand was slightly longer than the tip of his fingers. It was incredibly small and had many engravings on the surface.
He was originally a sword cultivator, so even if he used other weapons, they would still be similar to secret weapons.
The bodies of those Martial Kings had been pierced by the daggers. They stood in place, unable to move. It was as if their bodies had been frozen in place!
"The dagger even has the power to immobilize the body!" Qin Yun was astonished. He never expected that the Body Securing Rune could be used in such a way.
Wu Mingxu also rushed out. In a few blinks of an eye, he took out Dao cores from the abdomen of those Martial Kings. Then, he threw out a few daggers and killed the rest of the Xuan realm cultivators!
"Who the h.e.l.l are you?" After a Bloodline Martial King lost his Dao Core, he was enraged and shouted angrily.
Wu Mingxu's strength was obviously much stronger than these Martial Kings. He didn't reply but instead walked towards one of the Bloodline Martial Kings and grabbed his throat, absorbing his Bloodline Inheritance.
In a moment, that Martial King had turned into a dried up human!
"You....You are a Martial Emperor?" A Bloodline Martial King loudly shouted. Just as he finished speaking, he was also sucked dry.
"Don't be so arrogant. Martial Emperors exist in our Bloodline Aristocrat Clan as well!"
Wu Mingxu's expression was calm and he was not afraid in the slightest. He flew over and sucked that person's blood dry.
"So what if your family has a Martial Emperor? They don't know who killed you! You have to blame them for not coming over themselves!" Wu Mingxu laughed and then went over to suck up all the Martial Kings.
At this moment, Mu Feng returned. He, who was originally smiling, was stunned when he saw the several Martial Kings lying on the ground, drained of all their blood.
"Little fatty, how many Ghost King's Soul Essences have we obtained?" Wu Mingxu looked at Mu Feng and asked.
"More than ten!" Mu Feng quickly ran over and handed the Ghost King's Soul Essence to Wu Mingxu.
Wu Mingxu took over the Ghost King's Soul Essence and quickly absorbed the energy inside, saying, "I've almost recovered, now we can set off!"
Mu Feng was secretly excited. They were finally going to head to the main tomb.
Wu Mingxu released a burst of flame
The corpses on the ground were all burned.
Then, he walked around the hall, counting the number of bricks on the ground.
In this s.p.a.cious hall, the tiles on the floor were all very large, each about two to three meters wide and could be considered to be a very large piece of stone.
After walking back and forth for less than an hour, Wu Mingxu stood on a large stone tile. He closed his eyes and released an extremely strong Mental power that penetrated into that large stone brick.
Not long after, that large stone brick gradually floated up.
After Wu Mingxu lifted this piece of stone brick, there was a square hole at the bottom that was so deep that the bottom couldn't be seen.
Wu Mingxu used his mind energy to control the stone block to hover in the air. He walked to the side of the large hole and said to Qin Yun, "I'll go down first. Then, I'll take care of Little Fatty. You guys last!"
With that, he jumped down.
It was pitch black down below and Mu Feng was bold enough to jump down as well. With the powerful Wu Mingxu at the front, they also felt a lot more at ease.
Qin Yun, Shui Tianzi and Zi Qingcheng were at the back.
After they went down, the rock gradually fell down and sealed up the cave entrance.
If it wasn't for Wu Mingxu, they would never have thought that there would be such a secret pa.s.sage in the hall.
After they descended, they used their own strength to support their bodies as they floated in the air. They also took out light stones to illuminate their bodies.
The walls were made of very stiff stone, and they were carved with many lines.
This hole was more than a thousand meters deep and they were safe all the way to the bottom.
At the end of the tunnel, Wu Mingxu held the glowing stone in his hand as he walked down a long tunnel.
This pa.s.sage was extremely wide. It was twenty to thirty meters tall and seventy to eighty meters wide. The only difference was that the walls were rough with uneven rocks.
Wu Mingxu said, "Do you know why this pa.s.sage was built so wide?"
Mu Feng replied, "It should be to make it easy to pa.s.s through!"
"That's right, it's for the convenience of pa.s.sing through some powerful beasts!" Wu Mingxu nodded.
This startled Qin Yun so much that he tightly held the two girls' jade hands. Mu Feng hurriedly stopped in his tracks!
"Are there really many powerful beasts down here?" Mu Feng asked worriedly.
"I don't know if those guys are still alive. After all, so many years have pa.s.sed!" However, Wu Mingxu wasn't afraid at all. He was full of smiles.
Qin Yun asked, "To build such a huge structure on top, the main tomb is actually not built on the top...what was the use of that huge cake building? Is it just for puzzles or not?"
Wu Mingxu shook his head and said, "That huge building is a huge array that can suppress immortal corpses! I'm guessing that the Immortals buried here are all people whose fleshly bodies are difficult to destroy, which is why they were sealed away!"
Mu Feng said some fear in his voice, "It's that dangerous! Senior, can you deal with that kind of immortal corpse?"
"I don't know!" Wu Mingxu smiled, "You can be at ease. As long as we don't act recklessly and don't release the immortal corpse, it should be fine!"
Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
"Let's back off and go back to where we came from! The pa.s.sage is small, so the giant beasts cannot chase through it!" Wu Mingxu's expression changed slightly as he hurriedly shouted out.
Qin Yun and company quickly retreated to the end. There was a pa.s.sageway leading to the surface. If it was a gigantic beast, it was impossible for it to pa.s.s through.
Wu Mingxu took out his Origin Sword and waited looking in front of him.
In the depths of the wide pa.s.sage, suddenly, two large cl.u.s.ters of red light appeared. They were the eyes of enormous beasts and they separated from left and right.
The beast that came was a huge, pitch-black crocodile. It's body was thirty-four meters wide and it took up half of the pa.s.sage.
When the gigantic beast saw Wu Mingxu, it opened it's mouth and roared loudly, spitting out a black mist.
"It's poisonous gas!" Wu Mingxu quickly retreated and then threw out a Stormwind Talisman to blow away the poison.
The strength of the Dao talisman was extremely terrifying. The howling gale was actually able to force the gigantic crocodile back.
At this moment, Wu Mingxu's Origin Sword slashed down, releasing a purplish-golden sword qi that formed a huge arc of light. It flew out and split the giant crocodile into two halves from top to bottom.
Qin Yun and company thought that Wu Mingxiu would be in a tough battle but they never expected that he would be able to take care of the giant crocodile with a single strike.
Wu Mingxu rushed into the crocodile's body, wildly waving his sword in search of something. After a while, he found a black pearl about the size of a watermelon.
"This beast core is so small....I knew this guy wasn't strong!" After Wu Mingxu finished speaking, he rushed forward and beheaded all of the giant crocodiles that were rus.h.i.+ng towards him.
Mu Feng said, "This kind of Giant Beast's corpse should be good at refining. Let's go and collect some of it!"
"Don't come over here! Although these beasts only have the strength of Martial Kings, their bodies are highly toxic!" Wu Mingxu shouted, "The muscles and bones on the body can't be refined. Also doesn't it contain too much poison?"
Although he had killed a few giant crocodiles, he still frowned and set them on fire.
"It's very difficult to burn them. If we don't burn them clean, the corpses of these poisonous beasts will rot and the poisonous gas they emit will become even stronger!" Wu Mingxu said with a slight headache, "Using ordinary flames would only produce a large amount of black poisonous gas!"
He had no choice but to stop because if he were to continue, this pa.s.sage would definitely be filled with this poison.
"Senior Wu, how can I burn the poison beast's corpse?" Zi Qingcheng asked.
"Beast oil is the best!" Wu Mingxu said, "But where can we find the beast oil now?"
Qin Yun immediately said, "I do! Senior, come back quickly!"
As he finished speaking, he took out the Xuan Royal Cannon.
When Wu Mingxu came over, he found the thing on Qin Yun's shoulder extremely interesting.
Within the storage s.p.a.ce of the Xuan Royal Cannon, there were quite a few artillery sh.e.l.ls that were made from beast oil and spirit beast cores.
Qin Yun said with a smile, "Let's begin!"
He fired a shot and the colossal corpse in front of him exploded into flames, creating a powerful shockwave.
Beast oil that was condensed and refined gushed out like raging waves towards the other crocodiles' corpses.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Qin Yun hit it again and the flames produced by the beast oil completely enveloped the gigantic crocodile's corpse.
"Kid, you're not bad! Is this something you refined yourself? " Wu Mingxu laughed, "It seems to be a Xuan Artifact? Can you really make Xuan Artifacts?"
"It was created jointly by me and her!" Qin Yun looked at Zi Qingcheng and said with a chuckle.
Wu Mingxu and Mu Feng were secretly alarmed. They never expected that Qin Yun, who was so young, would possess the ability to forge Xuan Artifacts.
Soon, the oil flames had burned off the Giant Poison Crocodiles' corpses. Wu Mingxu walked in front and started walking towards the main tomb.
