Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 1326: Chapter 13: The Terrifying Ancient Corpse

The ancient corpse flew out.

This corpse appeared to be that of a middle-aged cultivator. As it flew out, its icy aura directly locked onto the Five Great Strongmen.

At first, the Five Great Strongmen did not realize this was a corpse, as it seemed vivid and lifelike, indistinguishable from a living person.

Some even thought that the ancient corpse emerging from the Burial Valley was Lin Feng’s accomplice.

”Haha, it seems you have some self-awareness. Just coming out alone? Where’s the other kid?” The Blood Sea Emperor let out a series of sinister laughs; the one he wanted to kill the most was not the person in front of him, but Lin Feng.

Thinking about being first verbally mocked by Lin Feng and then seriously injured, the Blood Sea Emperor felt an anger so hard to repress that he wished to dismember Lin Feng on the spot.

”Boom...”

The ancient corpse remained silent.

Just as Luo Yan had stated.

The resting place of the deceased should not be disturbed.

Any being that disturbs the sleep of the deceased shall face punishment.

Perhaps this can be seen as a curse, or an inexplicable eerie event.

Indeed, these departed souls were disturbed.

”Still dare to make a move, courting death!”

The Five Great Strongmen shouted in anger, cautiously, and directly summoned the Nine Demon Map.

Together, they activated the Nine Demon Map to strike at the ancient corpse.

The Nine Demon Map exuded black vapor that descended like an ancient Divine Mountain.

The ancient corpse was immensely powerful, seemingly possessing an immortal and indestructible physical body, facing the Nine Demon Map’s attack, it swung a fist in response.

Bang!!

With this punch, it shattered the attack of the Nine Demon Map, then approached the Blood Sea Emperor, delivering a fatal strike with its palm.

”No...” The Blood Sea Emperor screamed in horror.

He never expected such a terrifying situation; even the combined efforts of the Five Great Strongmen utilizing the Nine Demon Map, an Emperor Weapon, were easily dismantled by the opponent. The Blood Sea Emperor found himself unable to escape, his pupils contracting dramatically, never before had he felt such an intense presence of death.

The next moment!

The ancient corpse’s palm struck the Blood Sea Emperor, his body exploded, transforming into a mist of blood.

Lin Feng, hidden within the Ghost Ship, was equally stunned.

The might of the ancient corpse indeed surpassed expectations.

Its strength was almost insanely powerful.

Seeing the Blood Sea Emperor, a Great Demon who had dominated the Heavenly Martial Continent for millennia, fall like this, Lin Feng couldn’t help but sigh.

Oftentimes, life isn’t as resilient as imagined.

In this world, there exist many frightening entities, enough to disregard rules and freely claim any cultivator’s life.

Just like the mysterious ancient corpse in the Burial Valley.

Though seeing the Blood Sea Emperor fall, Lin Feng applauded happily.

This Great Demon’s death spared many from his slaughter, truly a cause for celebration.

After the Blood Sea Emperor’s fall, something extremely eerie occurred: all blood mist was devoured by the ancient corpse.

The blood mist contained the Blood Sea Emperor’s blood and essence, Power of Soul, and Origin power.

Despite being a corpse, the ancient corpse absorbed the blood mist, a bizarre sight for Lin Feng.

Yet, considering the inherent eerie nature of the ancient corpse, Lin Feng found the act of absorbing blood mist less surprising.

The remaining four were horrified at the scene, profoundly shaken by the ancient corpse’s power.

The four quickly retreated, exerting themselves to activate the Nine Demon Map.

”Something’s not right... This isn’t a living being; it’s a corpse!” Wuman Chen Sheng said.

”What? A corpse? How is that possible?” Asura Evil Venerable, Long Tianao, and Zhao Tian’er all bore incredulous expressions.

Wuman said, ”I can’t be mistaken, it’s definitely a corpse, though why it can still attack us is unclear. It seems this underwater mountain range hides some secrets, that kid must be hiding here. But we lack the strength to explore these secrets, let’s leave quickly to avoid the same fate as the Blood Sea Emperor.”

Wuman did not wish to linger at this place, and the others nodded in agreement.

But clearly, the ancient corpse did not intend to let off these intruders disturbing the deceased’s slumber.

The ancient corpse launched another attack, leaving the Four Great Strongmen no time to escape.

They had no choice but to battle the ancient corpse.

The ancient corpse’s attack was simple, raising its right hand, delivering a slashing strike at the Four Great Strongmen, creating a terrifying aura around the void.

This aura compressed the surrounding space.

Aiming to crush the surrounding space into pieces.

One by one, the Four Great Strongmen spat out blood, unable to withstand.

They were terrified, never witnessing such a dreadful existence.

The attack hadn’t even struck them yet, but they were already unable to endure.

What if the blow landed on them?

What unimaginable damage would that cause?

The damage, likely, would be unthinkable.

”Burn your life spans! Activate the Nine Demon Map!”

Asura Evil Venerable said in a deep voice, now was the time where they had no option but to fight desperately; even possessing the Emperor Weapon, the pressure against the ancient corpse was immense.

The Four Great Strongmen began frantically burning their life spans, each burning three thousand years.

The Four Great Strongmen utilized burning life spans to activate the Nine Demon Map.

The power of the Nine Demon Map was indeed released slightly by the Stone Workshop.

This was an Emperor Weapon, releasing a strand of power was enough to obliterate the skies, destroying all worlds.

Towering pressure spread out, like the resurrection of a Great Emperor from ancient times, frightening to the core.

The Nine Demon Map struck at the ancient corpse.

The Four Great Strongmen sneered, as if already witnessing the ancient corpse being pulverized by the Nine Demon Map.

But no one anticipated the terror and strength of the ancient corpse.

The ancient corpse swept out a punch, colliding directly with the Nine Demon Map, the Nine Demon Map was shaken, blasted away by the ancient corpse.

Seeing this, the Four Great Strongmen nearly died of fright.

The ancient corpse advanced, sending another punch at them.

The four retreated.

Ducking precariously.

Long Tianao, already injured, retreated slower and was struck dead on the spot, his body exploded into a mist of blood, and the mist was swallowed by the ancient corpse. Though the other three did not die, they were sent flying by the energy’s aftermath, each spitting out blood.

The ancient corpse rushed forward, intending to slay the remaining three when suddenly a fantastical scene emerged in the void, revealing a Demon Lotus in the phantom imagery.

The Demon Lotus emitted a magical light into the Nine Demon Map, boosting its power, knocking the ancient corpse away, and the Nine Demon Map wrapped around the severely injured trio, tearing through the void, disappearing in an instant.

Everything returned to tranquility, as if nothing had occurred, and the ancient corpse returned to the Burial Valley, ultimately lying motionless once more, becoming a body submerged in the lake bed, for countless ages these corpses remain immortal and indestructible. Who knows who these beings were in their lifetimes? Once fallen here, how many world-shaking secrets have these bodies buried alongside their demise?
