C166 Tombstone

"The fight for the key is really not that simple."

Yun Feixue then turned his attention to the other corpses. Sure enough, just like Han Youzi, there was a mysterious power seeping into the ground from each corpse.

"But I still have to go through the tomb where the devils are buried." Behind Yun Feixue were a few experts that had followed him. It was obvious that someone had set their eyes on the key in his hand.

Under the worried expressions of Ye Xuan and his wife, Yun Feixue quickly rushed into the stone door. The followers obviously did not dare to rashly rush in, and could only bitterly watch Yun Feixue's back disappear into the darkness.

At the same time, the battles in other parts of the Profound Nether Mountain became increasingly intense. Many powerhouses continued to fall, and the majority of them were masters of the true essence mystic realm.

There weren't many keys left, and everyone wanted to seize the opportunity to enter the Ghost-Devouring Graveyard. Those who couldn't snatch the key also wanted to make a move.

That person didn't say that one couldn't enter without a key. It could only be said that only with a key would one be safe, and there were also quite a few confident experts who wanted to enter with their own strength.

After an hour, there were no longer any battles outside of Profound Nether Mountain. There was only the pungent smell of blood and some unwillingness in his eyes.

They did not have a key, nor did they have the courage to charge in. It would be boring staying here any longer as most of them had already dispersed outside of Profound Nether Mountain.

Only the four people following Shentu Hong were staring at the inside of the stone door with bright eyes, as if they were waiting for Shentu Hong to come out. At the same time, they also seemed to want to get in.

"Second brother, third brother, don't you want to help young miss?" One of them suddenly spoke up.

"That's exactly what we wanted, what about you?" When the leftmost person heard this, he was even more certain that he would enter the stone door to help Shentu Hong.

"We are all the Miss's subordinates, so we should protect her safety. Come, let's go in together." The man said.

"Alright, let's hurry up and enter." The middle-aged man on the left opened his mouth and took the lead to rush into the stone door.

Only the man who spoke first and the man beside him did not move. After a while, they looked at each other and nodded, seeming to decide on something.

The two of them moved like the wind. Like a great roc spreading its wings, they rushed towards the stone door. The two people who had just arrived did not feel that anything was amiss. After all, the people behind them were from the Shentu Family.

However, when the two metal weapons pierced through their chests and entered their line of sight, they stopped in their tracks. The two turned their heads in disbelief. They never would have thought that the two who worked for the Shentu Family would attack them.

"Boss, Fourth Bro …" You... "Why …" The two of them asked while holding back the blood coming out of their mouths.

"Why? You no longer need to know. " The two of them spoke at almost the same time as the hidden weapons in their hands rained down upon them. The two people who had been struck by the swords were unable to react in time and their bodies instantly became riddled with holes.

After killing the two, they did not plan to enter the stone door. Each of them guarded the stone door as if they were waiting for the people inside to come out.

Ye Xuan and his wife were also dumbstruck. These four people were clearly loyal to Shentu Hong, so why would they suddenly kill each other?

They could not figure it out, but there was no need to think about it. The only reason they could stay here was to wait for Yun Feixue to come out. If possible, they would even barge into the tomb to search for Yun Feixue.

Even though Yun Feixue had repeatedly reminded them that they didn't need to enter, Ye Xuan and his wife were still prepared to enter the tomb just in case.

The man with the golden tiger mask turned a blind eye to all of this, even though he had also participated in the fight for the key.

However, as he had said, it was just a show to show others. He was more willing to stay outside and watch the show as an audience.

As for Chen Lei, the four of them had already entered the tomb. Although there were only two people who had obtained the key, he did not feel any fear, which was also in accordance with his style of doing things. This was because his sole goal was to kill First Hall Master Di Yuanhao.

The treasures here didn't attract him that much, but the experts he brought did make him the strongest person in the group.

Yun Feixue, who was already in the middle of the Profound Nether Mountain, naturally did not know about what was happening outside. When he entered, all his attention was placed on the possible dangers that might come from all directions.

He held the key in his hand. Even though his soul power had detected the many traps and traps in the area, due to the strange energy fluctuations emanating from the key, none of the dangers had landed on him.

"It seems like the function of the key is real." Yun Feixue muttered to himself.

Yun Feixue continued to advance along the passage. This place had been modified so that it was accessible from all directions. Borrowing the weak light on the walls, one could see that there were exquisite carvings and drawings around the passage.

Suddenly, he saw two corpses lying on the road. Two masters at the peak of the true essence realm had their bodies pierced by countless arrows, turning into two human-shaped hedgehogs.

It was clear that these two people did not have keys, but they still bravely came in. In the end, they had to pay the price with their lives, and Yun Feixue was even more vigilant.

After walking for about half an incense's time, a blinding light flashed in front of them, followed by the sound of battle. Their astonishing auras were like a continuous clap of thunder, and even from a distance, one could feel the destructive energy contained within. However, this mountain was completely indestructible, and there were no signs of collapse or destruction.

"Could it be that Chen Lei and Di Yuanhao are fighting?" The more Yun Feixue thought about it, the more he felt that this was the only possibility.

However, when Yun Feixue carefully reached the end of the tunnel, he was surprised. Not only did Chen Lei and Di Yuanhao not fight, the two of them even teamed up.

Their enemies were the five bronze statue puppets that were about the same size as a normal human being, and every time they came into contact, there would be loud metallic bangs.

The battle between the five bronze statues and the dozen men did not seem to be at a disadvantage at all. Behind them was a large lake filled with liquid.

In the middle of the lake, there was a stone platform that was covered in golden light. On the stone platform, the sound of thunder and lightning flashed wildly, and an axe-shaped weapon was wrapped in dazzling light, emitting a shocking amount of power.

"This is a Zong Stage weapon?"

Yun Feixue looked somewhat aghast at the axe. The blood blade in his body became restless at this moment, as if it was taking in the might of a king level weapon.

"Submit and swear loyalty to Lord Devourer. Only then will you have the chance to use Chasing Sun. If you dare to resist again, kill them without question." The five bronze golems simultaneously spoke out.

Yun Feixue looked at this scene in disbelief. Submitting to the devouring ghosts, hadn't devouring ghosts already died thousands of years ago?

Combined with the dead bodies from before, Yun Feixue faintly understood in his heart that the birth of Profound Nether Mountain this time was probably not that simple. The devouring ghost was not dead at all.

"You old thing, how many years have you been dead? With your meager cultivation experience, you still want us to submit to you and let you rise up again?" Di Yuanhao shouted angrily, and the bronze puppet in front of him immediately threw a punch into the pool.

"How dare you!" The five bronze men were alarmed and furious. A black bolt of lightning struck down above their heads. An expert behind Chen Lei was caught off guard and was struck by the bolt of lightning. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood as a third level Spirit Transformation expert was heavily injured.

Yun Feixue looked at this scene in shock. He really did not expect that a fellow who had died for several thousand years would leave behind such a powerful technique after his death.

"Hey, take advantage of the fight between these guys and hurry up to get that Zong Stage weapon." A voice resounded in his mind.

"You're crazy, how am I supposed to go over? If we get caught by them, there's only death waiting for us. " Yun Feixue continuously shook his head. There was nothing he could do in the face of the Spirit Sea Realm.

"Silently, who told you to go over there so blatantly? Once you have everything in your hands, release all the gravity of your Yama Boots and return back the way you came. " The anxious voice continued echoing in his head.

Yun Feixue was silent, but he did have the impulse to fight. At this moment, almost all of the experts within the Spirit Sea Realm were fighting with the bronze puppet. This might be the only chance he had of getting Chasing Sun.

The fourth layer of the Soul Art had completely concealed his aura. This level of soul power made it hard for Yun Feixue to detect his aura even within the Spirit Sea Secret Realm.

However, he still didn't feel reassured. After he was completely prepared, his figure flashed and appeared behind a huge rock. Borrowing the dead angle of these people's gaze, he carefully traveled through this open space.

Sure enough, Di Yuanhao and the others were under the control of those bronze puppets. At this moment, they had no time to pay attention to everything that was happening around them, not to mention that Yun Feixue was already completely hidden.

Before long, he had arrived at the place closest to Chasing Sun. Just as he was about to take a step forward, a figure flashed by and he saw that Shentu Hong had unknowingly arrived. It was evident that she had the same idea as Yun Feixue.

"Not bad, I didn't expect you to get another key." Shentu Hong softly said.

"Hey, be quiet." Yun Feixue quickly did a silent action.

"What's there to be afraid of? Even if they were to be discovered, they would not care about this place. Chasing Sun will definitely be mine, Shentu Hong." she said confidently.

"I won't give you this thing!" Yun Feixue said.

"Who asked you to send them off, you all have to rely on your own abilities." Shentu Hong gave a cold snort. Obviously, she was still brooding over the fact that Yun Feixue gave her the key. After all, she had lost to him, so her unwillingness to lose allowed her to leap forward one step at a time.

Yun Feixue's figure was also like a rainbow as the two of them flew from the surface of the lake one after the other, arriving in front of the golden light that was flashing as they lost their composure.

The two of them grabbed the axe almost simultaneously. However, the two of them were completely exposed to Di Yuanhao and Chen Lei's line of sight.

We are fighting with our lives on the line, and you actually took the opportunity to make a move against Chasing Sun? Who can endure this?

Di Yuanhao could not do it either. He screamed out almost instinctively and his aura instantly became unstable. However, with his strength, he would not be injured by the copper puppet.

However, it was not the bronze golem that was attacking him. Chen Lei, who had originally been focused on dealing with the puppet, suddenly attacked.

"Secret Art, Nine Heavens Thunder Slash." A lightning bolt condensed into a blade light beam and chopped towards Di Yuanhao's head.
