C123 Skeleton Guard

In the depths of the passageway, the white jade wall released a hazy glow, covering the passage with a layer of gauze. The thick dust left behind by the passage after many years was filled with a strong musty smell, continuously drifting in the air.

"Shua!" A rapid sound of wind breaking suddenly broke this ancient silence. After which, a person who had been missing an inch suddenly appeared at the corner of the tunnel.

His gaze carried a lingering fear as it glanced behind him. He leaned against the wall and panted heavily, "I did not expect that the little bastard had actually hidden it so deeply. Looks like I was really careless this time around!" Damn it, how did he get poisoned? " The figure once again cast a vigilant glance behind him. Seeing that no one was chasing after him, he leaned against the hazy wall and slowly sat down!

Closing his eyes, he immersed his mind into his body. When his inner sight discovered the poison, he cursed angrily once more. With an ashen face, he began to circulate his spiritual energy to purge the poison from his body.

Following the circulation of the Spiritual Energy within his body, the surrounding space lit up slightly. Borrowing the weak light, one could see that his body was covered with tiny cracks. These cracks continued to spread throughout his body and did not miss a single inch of his skin.

A faint light shone on these cracks, revealing a savageness mixed with a trace of terror.

From the dense cracks on his body, one could tell that his injuries were not too optimistic. This quiet recovery did not last long as he spat out a mouthful of black blood and was interrupted.

He slowly lifted his arm and wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth. Suppressing his voice, he coughed for a while before standing up. He stared at the path he had come from with a dark and vicious gaze.

"Clatter!" Not long after the figure disappeared, the sound of light footsteps suddenly echoed out from around the corner of the passageway. Following which, a slightly skinny figure appeared at the same spot as before!

The figure lowered his head and looked at the black bloodstains on the ground. His expression was slightly stunned. Hey! Tang Dong Tian, I want to see where you can escape to? "

This thin figure was Zhang Hao, who had followed them. After conversing with Ling Er for a while, he had followed them down the tunnel. He did not expect that Tang Dong would meet with such a good opportunity.

After the two of them fought for a while, Tang Dong Tian once again escaped from his hands. Seeing that the Blood Cloth Sect Leader was easily defeated, Zhang Hao pondered for a moment before understanding and immediately gave chase.

At this moment, after seeing the bloodstains on the ground, he was even more sure of his guess. When he entered the relic, Ling'er had warned him that the black smoke at the cave entrance was poisonous, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon!

The grey light made it difficult for Zhang Hao to see into the distance, but it did not affect him at all. A wisp of misty spiritual force suddenly spread out from his body and immediately spread into the depths of the tunnel!

After closing his eyes for a moment, Zhang Hao slowly opened them. A trace of unfathomable emotion flashed through his deep pupils. His body moved and he disappeared from where he stood!

In the next moment, a blurry afterimage slowly appeared tens of meters away. Before the afterimage could completely appear, it swiftly faded and disappeared along with a wave of air fluctuations. Soon after, another black shadow appeared in the distance!

Numerous afterimages repeatedly appeared behind him before they swiftly disappeared. This kind of chase had already caused the killing intent in his heart to surge explosively. Since Tang Dongtian wanted to kill him, Zhang Hao would naturally not let him off so easily.

It was quite strange that the two of them had already rushed for around an hour or so through this tunnel ever since their fight with Tang Dong. It was strange that they did not see a stone room like the one they had just seen in this tunnel!

The whole passageway seemed to have been completed by nature, extending all the way to the distance, as if there was no end. Moreover, the further down this passageway went, the more inclined it seemed to be.

Zhang Hao's heart was filled with doubts, but he did not stop. At a certain moment, the soul force that was spreading out suddenly reflected a scene, making him hurriedly stop.

Due to the inertia brought about by the high speed, his feet slowly came to a stop only when they were dozens of meters away from the ground.

"Phew …" As Zhang Hao's chest heaved up and down, he let out a long breath. He stood there in shock, thinking about something.

"Why aren't you chasing after me?" While he was still in a daze, Ling Er's innocent voice suddenly rang out. This sudden voice caused him to jump in fright. Promptly, he reacted and spoke to her with a strange expression on his face, "Take a look for yourself!"

When the little girl heard his strange words, she was slightly puzzled. Soon after, a sliver of soul force appeared from the black dimensional ring on Zhang Hao's hand and extended outwards. A moment later, it froze there.

Xiao Yan's gaze followed this Spiritual Strength and slowly turned to the corner of the tunnel. Immediately, an exit at the end of the tunnel that was emitting a fierce flame appeared in front of him.

At the entrance of the cave, a skeleton covered in blazing flames stood there with the large blade in its hand. A ferocious aura was continuously emitted from the skeleton, causing anyone who approached it to involuntarily shiver.

Opposite the skeleton, a naked man was staring at it. Looking at his slightly trembling body, the shock in his heart was no weaker than Zhang Hao's.

This person was the injured and fleeing Blood Cloth Sect Leader, Tang Dongtian. His current appearance was somewhat miserable. The messy aura, the skin filled with fine cracks, the blood at the corner of his mouth, and his naked body caused the famous Blood Cloth Sect Leader to appear somewhat miserable.

Just as Tang Dong's eyes were staring at the skeleton with deep shock, the empty skeleton that was covered in raging flames suddenly emitted a hoarse roar!

This roar did not sound like a human at all. It sounded like the bloodthirsty roar of some wild beast when it saw its prey.

Just as this roar sounded out, the skeleton that was filled with raging flames suddenly raised the large blade in its hand and viciously hacked downwards. At the same time, the shrivelled skeleton instantly appeared in the vicinity of Tang Dong Tian.

The two empty eye sockets flickered with a faint fire. At the same time, a bloodthirsty killing intent rose from within the sockets. It was obvious that the figure that had suddenly appeared was not friendly at all.

"Teleportation?" When he saw the Flame Skeleton suddenly appear in front of him, Tang Qian Tian was instantly shocked. This teleportation technique could only be barely displayed after one's cultivation had reached the Heavenly Tribulation Stage. However …

Thinking to this point, he was immediately shocked in his heart. In front of the skeleton in front of him, what level had his cultivation reached?

However, Tang Dong Tian was still a ruthless person who had climbed up from countless life and death battles. When he saw the skeleton instantly appear in front of him and slash down at him, his mind became clear.

Boom!" At the moment when his body shot backwards, that large blade also furiously hacked downwards. Following the furious slash of the large blade, a frightening aura that he had never felt before was suddenly born from the blade.

Under this aura, Tang Dong Tian felt all the blood in his body solidifying. Immediately, that terrifying blade ruthlessly hacked at the spot where he had just stood!

Suddenly, he felt the ground tremble violently. A strange scene followed. When the knife slashed down, the ground did not explode or have traces of being cut by the sharp blades. Instead, the ground was turned into dust within a few meters.

"Goo!" Tang Dong's eyes were fixed on the ground. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva with much difficulty and slowly shifted his gaze upwards. When he saw the skeleton's empty eyes, a deathly aura slowly surfaced in his heart.

"This …" Even until now, he still could not accept what he had just seen. And just as he was astonished by what he saw, the skeleton slowly raised its large saber.

At the same time as he raised the large blade, a dense white bone flashed from within the raging flames. An icy cold metallic luster was released from the exposed bone.

"Those who trespass into the forbidden area will die!" A hoarse growl came from the skeleton's mouth, adding to the already shocking scene a strange atmosphere.

As the sound of his roar faded, the large blade in the skeleton's hand viciously hacked at him once again.

"Crack!" A blade shot out, and the air was instantly torn apart. A blurry pitch-black rift appeared out of thin air behind the blade.

Following the appearance of that blurry crack, the large blade in the skeleton's hand suddenly transformed into a dense and cold saber energy, enveloping the entire passageway as it furiously slashed downwards.

Within his pupils, the chilling aura from the saber was magnified rapidly. Tang Dong Tian only felt that the space around him had frozen in an instant. He was horrified to discover that under this saber, no matter how he dodged, he would eventually face it head on.

Sensing this scene, a sinister light flashed across Tang Dongtian's eyes. Boundless Spiritual Energy surged out from his body, and the treasure sword in his hand was instantly enveloped by the boundless Spiritual Energy.

A deep and furious roar was emitted from his mouth: "I refuse to believe that a leatherless beast like you can do that!"

Under the blade glow, an ice-cold treasured sword violently collided with it. Time seemed to stop at this moment. The instant the treasured sword and the blade glow collided, a sharp energy was suddenly emitted from within.

Even steel could be easily torn into pieces by this sharp sword Qi. However, under this blade qi, it strangely melted away, and immediately after, a light cracking sound rang out. In front of Tang Xiaotian's terrified eyes, the Middle Grade Treasure Sword that had accompanied him for so many years was like a frail piece of paper as it was cut apart.

The instant the long sword broke, Tang Dong Tian immediately spat out a mouthful of blood towards the sky. Immediately, a berserk blade aura ruthlessly chopped downwards. However, the moment the blade aura was about to slash down, his body also borrowed the broken power of the treasured sword to appear a few meters away.

"Crack!" The sound of friction could be heard from the saber Qi. Soon after, a violent explosion occurred. The moment the saber Qi came into contact with the ground, a terrifying energy ripple was released. Like a wind blade, it tore everything it passed into pieces.

Within the energy ripples, it was as if there were countless blades unceasingly killing them. Everything in their surroundings would turn into dust the moment they touched the energy ripples.

The ripples spread extremely quickly. This kind of speed had exceeded the limits of what one could see with one's eyes. In the next instant, it had already ruthlessly smashed onto Tang Dong Tian's chest!

With a crack, his body exploded into a bloody mist that filled the sky. In the end, the famous Blood Cloth Sect Master did not even make a single sound before he completely disappeared from this world …
