C306 Fourth Coffin

Zheng Lei landed on the ground with a thud. He could vaguely hear the thin man's pained voice, "Demon heart …" When he turned around, he saw that the thin man and Jiang Cheng were already gone.

And at the place where Jiang Cheng was just lying, there was also a lump of Jiang Cheng's lifeline that had been chopped off by Zheng Lei.

Zheng Lei wanted to sit up, but found that he couldn't move. In fact, even if he wanted to move, he still couldn't move. He could clearly feel that the energy that filled his body earlier was rapidly disappearing.

However, at the same time that the power disappeared, he felt that the injuries on his body were also recovering at the same speed.

A moment later, the energy dissipated and Zheng Lei slowly sat up. There were no longer any wounds on his body. He raised his left hand and saw that he was tightly grasping the Demon Heart Dagger he had just obtained.

He only glanced at it once, but when the energy disappeared, Zheng Lei felt a surge of energy from the Demon Heart Dagger rushing towards his head.

He felt as if countless people were loudly talking to him, yet he couldn't hear anything clearly. It was just that it was very noisy, and he couldn't help but feel an indescribable sense of irritation in his heart. This feeling of irritation made him want to go crazy in an instant, to the point where he even had the desire to kill himself.

Suddenly, a faint spot of light appeared above the heads of all the corpses. They all flew towards Zheng Lei's head.

As more and more specks of light appeared, the discomfort Zheng Lei felt in his heart slowly faded away. When all the specks of light entered Zheng Lei's head, the discomfort completely disappeared.

Zheng Lei carefully sensed the situation. In fact, the force that caused him to feel unwell did not disappear, but was instead resisted by the small forces that rushed over. It just so happened to reach a balance, that's why he felt the uneasiness disappear.

Although Zheng Lei felt very uncomfortable inside, he could clearly see what happened just now. Naturally, he knew where the weak energy came from.

Perhaps it was because of the good people's good deeds and the good deeds that he had promised to kill these people. Perhaps these corpses still contained their scattered souls, or perhaps they were unwilling to give up, and Zheng Lei's oath had moved them. Therefore, when that discomfort appeared on Zheng Lei's face, these unwilling feelings of perseverance surged out of him to help him resist that power.

Zheng Lei lowered his head to look at the Demon Heart Dagger in his hand and quickly put it away. This thing was too strange and was not something he could control right now.

Putting away the dagger, Zheng Lei knew that the reason he was able to survive this ordeal was thanks to the corpses. These weak bits of energy might be the last bit of power left in these corpses, but it was all due to their unwillingness to die. After Zheng Lei swore an oath, they gave all their hope to Zheng Lei.

Zheng Lei bowed deeply towards the corpses and said softly, "Thank you. I originally wanted to help you all fulfill your wish, but now you've saved your lives. I will not say thanks for your kindness. I will always remember your wish. No matter when, I will work hard to accomplish it!"

He thought back to what happened just now, and roughly understood the reason why. However, he was very curious in his heart, how did Lin Xi manage to do that, and how she was able to materialize her power, not only did it have the ability to heal wounds, it also had other uses.

Zheng Lei checked the condition of his body once again, then he walked over to the last coffin that hadn't been opened yet. Looking at the lotus flower in his hand, it was constantly stirring, and even though the bottom of the lotus flower stalk was tightly pressing against his hand, the entire lotus flower was still pointing towards the coffin.

"Maybe it really is here." Zheng Lei said in a low voice before inserting the long sword in his hand into the coffin. After taking a deep breath, he let out a loud shout and the lid of the coffin was immediately pried open.

A blood-red bolt of lightning flew out, heading straight for Zheng Lei. Zheng Lei was already prepared. As he leaned back, his long sword danced with Spiritual Energy in front of him, forming a sword net.

The sword net surged with flames and was filled with snakes of lightning, blocking the lightning flying out of the coffin. The lightning confronted the longsword, and the two stayed in a stalemate.

Zheng Lei could feel an immense force coming from the lightning bolt. It pressed his body down until it was unable to stand upright. He just stood there, leaning backwards.

Fortunately, this lightning was only a trap and did not have any subsequent strength. After a moment of stalemate with the sword, it dissipated with a "pa" sound.

Zheng Lei carefully looked at the coffin and saw that it was filled with a blood-red mist. Even though the lid had already been opened, it did not leak out at all. It was as if the lid was just for show.

Staring at the mist for a long time, Zheng Lei probed and gently stirred the long sword inside the coffin, only to discover that what was inside the coffin was not mist, but something similar to light. This was because the blood-red thing did not stir along with the long sword, but it was not just that, because Zheng Lei also did not see the reflection of light.

Withdrawing his sword, he saw that the tip of the sword still had a hint of blood-red. From the sword, some flames also surged out and expelled the blood-red flames.

Zheng Lei didn't dare to use his hand to touch the blood-red thing. Even the sword gushed out of the fire to expel it. He was afraid that the blood-red thing would be like a maggot. Once it came in contact with it, it would never be able to get rid of it.

He lowered his head to look at the lotus flower in his hand. If it wasn't for his hand still holding onto the end of the lotus flower, the lotus flower would have probably flown in already.

Zheng Lei muttered to himself in confusion, "Is Nie Yuan really underneath this thing? If that's the case, is there any hope for survival? "

Doubtful, Zheng Lei's hand accidentally came in contact with the stone wall outside the coffin. A bone-piercing coldness came from his fingertips, and he reflexively retracted his hand.

"Why is it so cold?" "It was normal temperature just now." Zheng Lei slowly squatted down and carefully looked at the outside of the coffin.

"Frost?" Why was it so cold? How long has it been since there was a layer of frost? Could it be because of the red substance? " Zheng Lei was puzzled.

This red object was most likely something extremely dark and cold. If it wasn't for that, it wouldn't have caused a layer of frost to form on the outside of the coffin in such a short period of time. However, he couldn't figure out why there wouldn't have been a layer of frost when the lid was placed on.

"The coldest and coldest …" Zheng Lei kept repeating these words. Suddenly, he turned his head and asked himself, "That Demon Heart Dagger is a demonic item, what happens if the two are combined?"
