Chapter 138 The sarcophagus at the bottom of the tomb
"Zheng!"
The two swords intersected, strong winds blew up, and Qi instantly burst out, sweeping towards the tree roots all over the sky.
The roots of the trees that came were broken off one after another, and were smashed into powder by the energy in the sky.
The strong wind danced, the crown of the tree swayed in the wind, and in an instant, the leaves shot out like hidden weapons.
"cut!"
Xu Ping shouted coldly, and the sword light burst out, bright and dazzling.
Under the support of the true energy, the two daggers shone brightly and swept across the incoming leaves.
The fallen leaves fell like raindrops one after another, and the sword light was still scattered, striking the lush crown of the Sophora japonica tree.
The sword light erupted in the tree crown, exploding tree branches and leaves all over the sky.
"ah!"
The Sophora japonica tree spirit cried out in pain, "The tree roots rooted in the ground once again absorbed the overwhelming Yin Qi, and the crown of the tree, which could have been cut off, grew rapidly and became green and lush again."
"Hey, there's something down here!"
Xu Ping kept using the Qi Watching Technique this time and discovered that there was still overwhelming Yin Qi in the ground.
It is precisely because of the nourishment of this yin energy that the Sophora japonica tree spirit can quickly recover from injuries and remain invincible.
Xu Ping's eyes condensed, his swords were folded in his right hands, and he flew towards the tree demon in the air.
The recovered Sophora japonica tree spirit roared wildly, and its thick trunk straightened up again.
I saw a large mouth slowly opening on the trunk of the Sophora japonica tree, and a pungent fishy smell spewed out. Xu Ping, who was a little closer, felt sick and wanted to vomit.
The fishy smell became stronger and stronger. Suddenly, the fishy smell seemed to turn into a real swamp. Xu Ping, who had just approached, was being pulled towards the opening in the tree trunk.
At the same time, the tree branches, like a group of demons dancing around, turned into giant whips and kept whipping Xu Ping in the air.
Wasting away his strength.
It was like the stench of a biochemical weapon, which made Xu Ping shut down his five senses. Instead of retreating, he advanced instead. Following the guidance of the Sophora japonica tree spirit, he raised his hand and inserted the two swords on the edge of the huge mouth of its trunk.
The Sophora Tree Spirit roared in pain again, and Xu Ping's whole body glowed with golden light, which was from the Golden Light Curse, one of the eight Taoist divine curses.
Through his decades of Taoism, the body-protecting golden light has reached the state of transformation, quickly wrapping around the whole body like running water.
Water is impermanent and can also block odors very well.
After breaking through the confinement of the stench, Xu Ping stood in the air, hanging above the head of the tall Sophora japonica tree spirit.
Looking down at the Sophora japonica tree spirit below, Xu Ping's whole body was full of zhenqi. He shouted loudly, his muscles bulged, and his whole body was filled with a violent aura.
Transformed directly from an elegant gentleman into a muscular tyrant.
Branches roared towards him, Xu Ping was unafraid, stretched out his hand into the air, and instantly grasped the whipping tree roots tightly in his hands.
The muscles on the arms are distinct, and the golden light wraps around the tree roots, pulling the Sophora japonica tree spirit rooted into the ground, trying to uproot it.
Feeling the huge force above her head, Huaishu Jing was horrified.
Is this really a power that humans can master?
He hurriedly tried to cut off the roots, but found that these roots had long been corroded by the golden light, and were replaced by a very straight golden rope.
"rustle……"
The soil on the ground began to shake, and the Sophora japonica tree spirit was shocked to find that the roots of the tree that had penetrated into the ground had begun to loosen.
Along with this, some of the thick tree trunks were pulled up.
The demon power circulates, and wisps of black energy spread out from the tree trunks, trying to take root again and enter the depths of the earth.
Wang Hongguang, who was on the high platform beside him, was dumbfounded. Ever since they met, Xu Ping in his impression has always been a humble and restrained senior man.
But at this moment, Xu Ping's whole temperament in front of him had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Such a violent side was something he had never seen before.
but……
This is so handsome.
The tree demon definitely didn't know, but Wang Hongguang could see it.
The bulging muscles all over Xu Ping's body were actually a sign of extremely abundant Zhen Qi.
It sounds simple, but it is actually integrating the true energy into the body to enhance the strength of the body.
But it's not that easy to do.
The human body is the most complex existence. If it is slightly biased, it is easy to hurt yourself.
To integrate the true energy into your own muscles, bones, flesh and blood, you must do it just right. Otherwise, if you don't do it well, your blood will surge up and your body will explode to death.
Xu Ping on the field is still wrestling with the Sophora japonica tree spirit.
Through the scene just now, he discovered that the reason why the Sophora japonica tree spirit is invincible must be because there is a lot of Yin energy in the ground for it to draw on at any time.
Rooted in the ground, it feels like a wildfire that never burns out and is revived by the spring breeze.
The simplest, most direct, and most effective way is to uproot it.
Feeling the golden light under the rope, the Sophora japonica tree spirit suddenly became heavy. Xu Ping silently recited the mantra, and streaks of lightning appeared around him.
"boom--"
There was a thunder, like spring thunder exploding, and the entire underground space shook for a moment.
Eye-catching blue electric pillars flew past along the golden rope and struck Xu Ping's two daggers stuck on the tree trunks.
The two inconspicuous daggers were inserted into the tree trunks like two silver needles, but since then, they have become the best lightning medium.
A steady stream of thunder pillars burst out from Xu Ping's hands and poured into the two short swords along the golden rope.
The thick trunk of the Sophora japonica tree made a crisp sound like fried beans.
"No!"
The Sophora japonica tree spirit screamed, and the thunder and lightning that poured into the body went straight into the ground as if entering an uninhabited land, shattering the roots of the Sophora japonica tree.
"Boom!"
An earth-shaking loud noise came from the belly of the mountain.
Xu Ping's eyes were red, veins popped out on his forehead, and the divine power bursting out from his arms directly uprooted the Sophora japonica tree spirit.
Huge tree trunks sway in the air.
The locust tree, which weighed more than a thousand kilograms, was pulled and hung in the air by Xu Ping with two slender golden ropes.
"burst!"
Xu Ping shouted in a deep voice.
A willow sword and a golden light sword followed the opening created by the raging thunder and lightning, and directly penetrated deep into the trunk of the Sophora japonica tree, wreaking havoc in its body.
The golden light shines brightly, and the thunder and lightning explode.
The locust tree spirit that was hung in the air began to shake violently, and the force was so great that Xu Ping almost lost his strength and let go.
If it is allowed to fall to the ground, who knows whether this locust tree spirit will take root again and enter the earth.
Xu Ping's thoughts changed, and the big black man wrapped around his waist suddenly appeared between the lightning and flint.
At this time, the loach Dahei could no longer be regarded as a loach. The moment it appeared, black light shone all over its body, and it instantly grew to seven or eight meters long, like a giant python, coiled around Xu Ping's body.
It raised its head high, rubbed Xu Ping's face affectionately, and barked a few times, looking a little resentful.
It probably means that if the owner doesn't let me out for such a long time, there might be another baby outside.
"Stop playing around, get down to business!"
Xu Ping gave an order, and Dahei's little face became solemn. He nodded in a humane manner, and then stared at the pagoda tree spirit below with eyes like copper bells, feeling a deep chill.
The Sophora tree spirit, which was hanging in the air with weak breath, suddenly encountered an inexplicable threat. Its huge body suffocated, and the crown of the tree slowly lifted up like a human head.
I saw a spiritual creature that looked like a snake but not a snake hovering over the god-like figure in the sky, emitting endless coldness towards it.
"Ouch——"
Dahei opened his mouth wide, and a black substance as thick as ink brewed deep in his throat.
As soon as it saw the black substance, the Sophora japonica tree spirit felt extremely threatened. It panicked instantly, but was locked to the tree trunk by a golden rope.
There are still two broken swords wandering around inside the body, which cannot be kept safe at all.
"Susu..."
Dahei suddenly spat out the black substance, and when he blurted it out, it turned into acid rain and fell.
After spitting out the acid rain, Dahei's aura gradually weakened, and his body shrank again, wrapping around Xu Ping's neck like a black jade decoration.
As soon as the acid rain, which contained all of Dahei's cultivation, fell, the Sophora japonica tree spirit screamed in terror, making a dull sound like the beating of a heavy drum, one after another.
Acid rain as big as soybeans kept pouring on the Sophora japonica tree spirit.
The trunks, branches, and crowns of the trees are all stained with ink, no longer green, only pitch black.
Suddenly, the branches of the locust tree that were dancing all over the sky froze completely motionless.
Immediately afterwards, all the branches and trunks quickly withered and shriveled, as if they had been drained of moisture, and collapsed suddenly.
"call--"
Xu Ping let out a heavy breath and landed on the ground. The muscles all over his body began to slowly disappear and turned into his normal appearance.
The feeling of fatigue that emerges from the body is a drawback caused by the overloaded body.
At this moment, black mist filled the eyes, and the Yin and Yang illustration appeared.
Kill the demon: the four-hundred-year-old tree demon.
Reward: Forty years of Taoism.
Looking at the reward given in the illustrated book in his field of vision, Xu Ping was stunned. After a moment, he felt ecstatic in his heart.
Waves of warmth surged from his body, and his arms, which had been a little sore, were back to their original state at this moment. The extremely full amount of energy in his Dantian made him extremely excited.
Let’s just say that this trip will not be in vain. The forty years of Taoism alone have surpassed the more than half a year of practicing day and night.
With nearly a hundred years of Taoist blessings, Xu Ping suddenly felt that even now, he should have a slight chance of winning in a duel with that evil dragon.
no!
Still have to continue to get stronger.
I don't want to capsize in the gutter and become the step on which the dragon transforms into a dragon.
…
Wang Hongguang fell from the high platform, his eyes never leaving Xu Ping.
I have identified this uncle, and no one can stop me, I said so.
"Auntie, bah, Brother Xu, how do you feel?"
Wang Hongguang asked with concern. He had just seen Xu Ping feeling tired for a moment after dealing with the Sophora japonica tree spirit.
The forty years of Taoism that poured into his Dantian had already completely repaired his injuries.
At this time, Xu Ping returned to his peak.
"I'm fine..." In response to Wang Hongguang's concern, Xu Ping looked up and frowned slightly.
I saw a deep pit where the Sophora Tree Spirit was standing just now, and there was still Yin Qi gathering in the deep pit, as if there was another cave.
Without doing any repairs, Xu Ping walked over and said, "Let's go down and have a look. If my guess is correct, this deep pit leads to the third floor of the tomb."
Wang Hongguang nodded: "It's very possible."
After speaking, the two of them jumped directly into the bottomless pit.
While he was still falling, Xu Ping suddenly discovered that the temperature under the pit was extremely low, like an ice cellar. When he was blown by the strong wind, Wang Hongguang next to him began to tremble all over.
Fortunately, this process didn't last long, and suddenly bright lights shot out from under my feet.
Xu Ping and Wang Hongguang followed the bright light and controlled their bodies to fall to the ground.
As soon as the two landed on the ground, they discovered that there were many luminous pearls inlaid on the surrounding stone walls, and the light in the underground space was emanated from these luminous pearls.
"Wow, digging these things back will bring you a lot of money." Wang Hongguang was amazed, holding the peach wood sword, and went to dig out the night pearl.
"Are you short of money?" Xu Ping chuckled.
Wang Hongguang said with a smile on his face: "Money, of course, the more the merrier."
Xu Ping nodded: "It makes sense."
As he spoke, he waved his big hand, and his true energy shot out like a thread. In an instant, he tore off the luminous pearl on the stone wall and stuffed it into the bottomless pit.
Only a few are retained for lighting.
"We'll split it up after we get out."
Hearing what Xu Ping said, Wang Hongguang had no objection.
Only then did the two of them look towards the underground space, and saw that what was in front of them was the tomb chamber, and the most eye-catching thing was the black stone platform in the center.
That ancient sarcophagus.
There is not much decoration in this underground space, and the sarcophagus lies there quietly, which is very eye-catching.
"Let's take a look."
Xu Ping should head there first and look around carefully to avoid another trap formation.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step forward, he didn't see any magic spells, but instead heard bursts of rustling sounds.
"What's the sound?" Wang Hongguang asked.
Before Xu Ping could speak, he saw tens of thousands of corpses pouring out from under the sarcophagus like a tide.
Such a dense mass of corpses frightened Wang Hongguang to take three steps back. He touched the peach wood sword with his sword finger, and a pattern on the sword lit up, and the entire peach wood sword instantly ignited into a raging fire.
A sword was swung out, the fire dragon roared, and the groups of corpses were roasted in an instant, exuding a burning smell.
Xu Ping also used the fire spell. One wooden sword was ignited in flames, and the other's whole body was bathed in fire. The surroundings were instantly filled with corpses, and their calves were submerged.
After countless corpses were burned to death, those who were not afraid of death quietly retreated.
Wang Hongguang had just breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead when he saw a withered palm suddenly stretched out among the groups of corpses.
Soon, one palm after another burst out of the ground, and zombies crawled out one after another.
Corpse gas instantly filled the entire underground space.
"Mao Zheng!"
Xu Ping's eyes narrowed and he discovered that these zombies had black hair growing all over their bodies. After a rough count, they turned out to be nearly a hundred zombies.
Wang Hongguang was so frightened that he slashed out with his sword. The fire dragon roared and hit several Mao Zongs. Their bodies were only stunned for a moment without being harmed at all.
His hair is stiff, he has immense strength, he is invulnerable to weapons and weapons, he moves quickly and jumps like flying.
Wang Hongguang's throat and hair were astringent: "Brother Xu, these zombies are so sinister. I don't know how many years they have been raised."
Mao Zheng is not afraid of ordinary fire or sunlight, and is already an extremely advanced zombie.
Feeling Wang Hongguang's fear beside him, Xu Ping smiled faintly, took a step forward, and said with a chuckle: "Stay back, I'm going to start again..."
