Rumble!
The arena was being ripped apart by the second, and the mountain was caving in. It was as if the apocalypse had arrived and the whole place was going to be destroyed!
Luckily, the people were all strong enough to get themselves safely into the pa.s.sage behind the Evil Dragon Doors.
A few seconds after, the vast arena crumbled was and was completely buried under tons of rocks and debris. Had anyone remained there, they would have been killed.
Whist safe, there was an apparent problem. The walls and ceiling of the pa.s.sage that they sought refuge in were beginning to crack. There was a chance that it might collapse as well.
The people had no choice but to continue moving forward as quickly as they could regardless of what lay ahead. At least, that way, they had a fighting chance - way better than staying and being buried alive!
"My goodness! Is this Emperor Qin's mausoleum? This is insane!"
The pa.s.sage was not very long and soon, they all exited the pa.s.sage.
The scene at the pa.s.sage was so shocking that everyone, even Chen Xiaobei, stopped in their tracks!
Who knew? This was an anti-gravitational s.p.a.ce, and everyone was afloat!
There was no floor, and when they looked down, all they could see was a deep, dark bottomless abyss staring back at them!
In front of them were nine giant dragons carved out of ink jade!
The dragons were arranged in a circle, each clutching a black metal chain in its jaw.
At the end of the chains hung a black coffin made of metal, and it appeared that it was dangling at the highest and centermost position in the s.p.a.ce!
Anti-gravitational s.p.a.ce! Nine dragons holding onto a coffin!
This was so much more bizarre than a science-fiction movie!
Even the best Hollywood special effects team would not be able to create such a staggering scene!
However, the people's attention were quickly drawn away from the bewildering dragon and coffin to the area right beneath the coffin!
The 10 men who had charged in in earlier were there.
Obviously, the black coffin was Emperor Qin's casket.
So, when the ten of them came in, they went straight for the coffin, all eager to find out what precious things they could find inside.
But before they could even touch the coffin, they were suddenly besieged by strange, black shadows.
"Help! Faction leader Chen, save us!"
The men shouted. The black shadows had clearly caused them to suffer greatly.
Chen Xiaobei shot them an icy gaze. "A bunch of idiots! I told you to stop but you didn't listen! I will not save you! You can all go to h.e.l.l!"
Chen Xiaobei was not people-pleaser. He had no pity for fools who refused to listen to his advice!
What's more, Chen Xiaobei had just saved them all a little while ago. But not only were the ten of them ungrateful, they held on to their grudges and plotted revenge on Chen Xiaobei!
These dogs were not qualified for pity!
"Faction Leader Chen, save us! If you don't, these evil spirits will drain our energy completely. We don't want to die… Don't want to die…."
Zhou Daoxian and his men were crying hysterically, was.h.i.+ng their faces with salty tears of despair.
Chen Xiaobei turned a deaf ear to their pleading. He was watching the black shadows' movements intently.
"Xiaobei, do you see anything?" Xiangyu asked.
Chen Xiaobei answered in a hushed voice. "These black shadows are of human form but it's like they are being covered by a fog, hiding their actual form. I cannot be certain whether they are evil spirits or Yin Spirits."
"Who cares what they are!" Six-Eared Macaque said. "They are all spiritual ent.i.ties! Those guys attacks were useless! Similarly, our attacks would be useless too!"
"You're right!" Chen Xiaobei nodded. "The black fog around their bodies seems to have a very special protective ability that makes them immune to Zhou Daoxian's Pure Yang spiritual items! That means our Pure Yang spiritual items will be ineffective too!"
Long Zishan discovered something as well. "On top of that, this place is a non-gravitational s.p.a.ce! We are all floating in a void, and there's no way for us move around. We're moving too slowly to be able to dodge the black shadows' attacks!"
"No wonder!" Liu Xuanxin suddenly cried out. "I was wondering why Zhou Daoxian and his men did not attempt to evade the attacks! It's because they can't!"
The shadows were hovering freely among the 10 people somewhat slowly and the 10 people, all Ethereal Cultivation warriors were floating clumsily in the air, unable to move.
If moving was difficult, it was going to be impossible to even take cover!
Because of that, the black shadows were able to use Yin Spirits' special ability to whisk away the ten men's Yang Qi and their energy along with it.
They may have been the top of the elites, but right now, they were unable to withstand this frog-in-boiling-water torment.
It was only a matter of time before they became exhausted.
Then, they would all die. There was not a chance that any of them would survive.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
As Chen Xiaobei was observing the situation, hundreds of dark shadows suddenly walked out of the black coffin and bolted towards the direction where he stood.
"Xiaobei! Enemy attack!" Xiangyu managed to shout a warning.
The hundred other people began to panic.
"We're as good as dead! Attacks are useless! Pure Yang Spiritual Items are useless! Evading the attacks are nearly impossible! We are all sitting ducks waiting to be slaughtered by those black shadows!"
"We're dead! There's too many of them! Soon, they will drain all of our energy!"
"No! I had just escaped death… I don't want to die…"
Every one had their lives on the line. If they did die here, all of their efforts would have been for nothing! It would all have gone to waste!
"Shut up, all of you! I'm not dead yet!" Chen Xiaobei barked.
At once, the cries of despair stopped, and no one made another sound.
While they had managed to keep their mouths shut, they were all still filled with trepidation.
From their perspective, no matter how good and strong Chen Xiaobei was, there was nothing he could do about these invincible black shadows.
Long Zishan too was unsure herself. "Does faction leader Chen have an idea about what to do?"
Before Chen Xiaobei could answer, Six-Eared Macaque said, "Of course Xiaobei knows what to do! He just needs to take the Blood Chaos Sword, and all these spirits won't have any place to hide!"
Xiangyu exhaled, "Yeah! The Chaos Blood Sword can suck up Yin Spirits. Just now, it even had an upgrade! The more black shadows there are the better it would be! Hahaha!"
The others breathed a sigh of relief too.
They had all just witnessed how potent the Blood Chaos Sword was.
Just as everyone was expecting the Blood Chaos Sword to reappear, Chen Xiaobei gave them the most shocking answer, "No! I won't be using my Chaos Blood Sword!"
