Chapter 1003: Terrifying Hole of Ten Thousand Corpses!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The burning hot flame instantly engulfed the entire passage way. A wave of intense heat wave instantly filled the entire underground world of the Zhan Family!
Both the two people in front and behind were caught within it instantly!
“How despicable! To use fire!” An unusually icy force instantly surged out with a whoosh. From one end of the passageway to another, wherever the chill touched, the flames were instantly extinguished. Even the walls on both sides had a thin layer of frost forming on it instantly.
The burning hot flames instantly vanished. The two enemies revealed themselves again. They did not suffer a single scratch, but they both had a terrible look on their faces!
There was no other reason. Along with this powerful fire, all the Thousand Ghosts Devourer Insects in the passageway were all turned into ashes!
Not a single one was left!
An odd, charred smell filled the entire passage.
This mysterious expert’s aim in putting fire was not to use it against the two of them, and it was also not to distract their attention. It was to get rid of all these Thousand Ghosts Devourer Insects so that he no longer had to worry about being exposed with his concealment techniques!
With such an unexpected change, Zhan Lun Hui, who had hidden himself in the dark to observe the battle, was flabbergasted. Both his hands trembled slightly, a look of disbelief in his eyes. ‘How could this be?!’ was about to come rushing out of his mouth!
Others may not know, but how could Zhan Lun Hui not?
If these Thousand Ghosts Devourer Insects were really so easily burnt, then Zhan Lun Hui wouldn’t have valued them this much! Zhan Lun Hui had tested it out many times! These Thousand Ghosts Devourer Insect were not afraid of being burnt!
Even if they were left burning in the highest temperature of flames for two hours, they would still be able to fly out from the fire without a single scratch! Completely unaffected!
But this unexpected scene before his eyes caused Zhan Lun Hui, who always schemed and planned far ahead, to be completely unable to accept it! Three thousand Thousand Ghosts Devourer Insects that he had painstakingly bred turned into ashes in this bizarre wave of fire!
But if that flame was really bizarre, then how could it instantly be extinguished by the power of the Ice Cold Palm?
Everything just screamed bizarre and incomprehensible!
In fact, no one would have imagined it.
Because in this passage, there was nothing illuminating it. Everything was dark. No one had noticed that in that moment the flames began to burn, there was also a line of black flames that were secretly burning, blending into the darkness of the passage.
In fact, it was after that black flame had begun burning that the real big fire that engulfed the entire passage began to burn.
Although the process was extremely similar, it made a difference. When the huge fire began to burn, those insects had already been turned into ashes by the black flame! When the huge fire started, the black flames had already retreated and vanished secretly after accomplishing its purpose. The huge fire ball afterwards was merely a diversionary tactic.
Otherwise, even with the power of that Ice Cold Palm, what effect could it have?
Right now, the flames were all gone. The entire passage returned back into a state of darkness!
Zhan Yi Xiao and Zhan Tu scoffed angrily. Both of them began to rain a series of attack at where the mysterious expert seemed to be earlier. But to their surprise, all their Xuan Qi was hitting against thin air. There was nothing that was absorbing the impacts of their attacks. Even if there was, it was the stone walls that their Xuan Qi had accidentally hit!
The enemy had already fled!
The two of them were top experts. The enemy had already left, so there was no point in them continuing to exert their strength. They both stopped and exchanged looks, seeing the deep shock in each other’s eyes!
Who is this person?!
To be able to maintain and not reveal himself under the full strength attacks of two Saint Venerables! And to completely eradicate all three thousand Thousand Ghost Devourer Insects at his will and vanish without a trace!
The two Saint Venerables had not even caught sight of the enemy’s clothes during this entire process!
And the enemy was able to achieve unimaginable, remarkable battle results before the two of them!
If something like this was told to others as a fact, no one might be willing to believe it! It was too shocking to believe!
What they did not imagine was that Young Master Jun actually did not quit while he was ahead and truly leave.
Young Master Jun had merely leaned his body into the stone wall and blended into it. He had originally planned to use the advantage of his concealed form and the sharpness of the Blood of Yellow Flame alongside with the unique Art of Unlocking Heaven’s Fortune to mount a sneak attack! Hopefully, it would get rid of both of them, but even one would be good.
But he instantly realized that although he was at the level of a third level Saint Emperor and was above Cao Guo Feng in his strength, the disparity between him and these two people was still too great! Plus, these people were on full alert. Even if he struck suddenly, it would not be able to have the same desired effect. And it may instead expose his own powers!
So Jun Mo Xie forcefuly suppressed the tempting thought of secretly attacking. While these two were overly suspicious and observing the surroundings, Jun Mo Xie used the Power of Earth and passed through the stone walls into the other side!
When Young Master Jun used the Power of Earth to blend into this rock, he instantly noticed that this rock was a lot thicker compared to the rest he had passed! The few from before were slightly more than a zhang in thickness. While this one is at least ten zhang in thickness! He had already gone past a distance of more than ten zhang, but he still had yet to reach the other side!
This underground world that the Zhan Family had created could be said to be massive. All the rocks underneath had practically been opened through. It didn’t make sense to leave a single wall of over ten zhang in thickness without making use of it! There must be some huge secret behind this stone wall!
Making up his mind, Jun Mo Xie continued to plough his way in that direction. Since he had the Yin Yang Escape and the Power of the Five Elements, which place in the world was he incapable of going?!
After passing approximately eight zhang worth of rock, suddenly there was a light before him and an indescribable pungency hit him in the face. Jun Mo Xie felt a strong urge to vomit instantly!
Young Master Jun focused his vision and he couldn’t help but feel enraged!
What met his eyes was an unusually wide space. To be more accurate, it was a deep pit! Inside this deep pit, there were countless and numerous corpses! Layers and layers piled over each other! Just from one glance alone, it could be determined that there were above ten thousand corpses in here!
The corpses forming the few layers on the bottom were already rotten. Their white bones were protruding. And the few layers on top looked like corpses of people who died not long ago!
Jun Mo Xie was in the stone wall right above this pit of ten thousand corpses!
Thud! Thud! A few splashes of blood splayed across the air, and over ten corpses were tossed in again. Then an extremely respectful voice spoke. “Old Ancestor, these are the three hundred corpses for today. They have all been delivered. Do you still have any more orders? If it is not enough, this junior will immediately go and make arrangements!”
“En… Good job this time.” A chilly voice said satisfactorily. “There is only one thing that you must not forget. Tomorrow, there must be at least five hundred corpses! And they must be fresh! There must be no mistakes. Do not mess up the plans.”
Jun Mo Xie looked over in the direction of the voice. On a tall, tall stone platform, there was an old man. He looked like a skeleton wrapped in bones and was holding onto a long object that had an odd shape. Before the old man was a cauldron that was completely black. Inside, there was a black mist that constantly drifted out of it…
Below that cauldron, there were nine other specific black tubes that led out and stretched all the way underneath the hole of ten thousands of corpses…
“Yes… But… Old Ancestor…” That voice seemed to be a little afraid, as if he wished to speak something but was afraid to voice it out. After a great struggle, he mumbled, “The people that we can kill near the family have already more or less been killed… If we continue to massacre in such batches… there may be someone who will get involved. In fact, the Miao Family and the Zhang Family are already looking into the whereabouts of these people who has gone missing… If this continues, I’m afraid that…”
“What are you afraid of? As long as you leave no traces, so what if you kill even a few thousand people? These are just commoners who are like ants; who will really care about them? If there is not enough people here, then you can go to Heart Fantasy City. The more the better…”
“Yes, I was hoping to seek your permission. Proceeding at your desired pace is the priority. It’s just that if we are going to gather people from Heart Fantasy City, the journey is a little far, and the number you require this time is too massive. I’m afraid we may require more helpers. If it’s just us alone… I’m afraid… we are not competent enough… If we end up delaying Old Ancestor’s plans…”
“En, your considerations are understandable. Go find Zhan Wu Yun; let him make arrangements. Tell him specifically that my side is at its most crucial point now! There must be no breaks! If the life sacrificial offerings are halted, there is a danger of everything going down the drain!”
“Yes, Sir! Then this servant shall take his leave.” A huge man with a fat face bowed politely and slowly backed out.
Jun Mo Xie slowly floated from the stone wall. He looked at this boney old man on the stone platform. The killing intent in his heart was surging uncontrollably!
Everything happening over here was obvious. The Zhan Family was trying to do some sort of scheme, and it required a countless number of corpses of living people as sacrifice. From there, they would gather the power of the death spirits and achieve their certain goal…
This old man treated human life as grass! This sort of conduct could not be described by merely cruel and vicious. He was completely savage and inhuman!
Jun Mo Xie, who was boiling with killing intent, was just about to strike when there was a flash of at the door. Someone entered. That person asked indifferently, “How is it? How is the progress today?”
Jun Mo Xie did not expect to see this person!
