<h4>Chapter 466 Man-made Disaster</h4>
Su Li walked silently in the dark tunnel. There was nothing but dead silence.
At the moment she entered the passage, the world seemed to turn upside down, as if the stone wall beneath her feet was the real ground, and she did not make any effort to maintain her figure.
The sarcophagus behind her was no longer visible. Su Li didn’t go quickly but still reached the end after half a quarter.
There was another dry well in front of her. It was the same as the well in front of the ancestral temple of the Duan Family, either in style or in the pattern.
The only difference was that this dry well was more exquisite. Its pattern was clearly visible and emanated odd blood red like vessels. The faint blood color kept flickering and reflected on Su Li’s calm face.
The dark well seemed to be filled with ck ink, which could not be infiltrated by the psychic awareness. Silent terror spread out.
“Su Li, what did you see?”
ck Lotus could not help but transmit his voice to ask. Since Su Li walked into this ce, he could not sense anything but darkness, which panicked him.
However, Su Li’s gaze remained calm. Looking at the bloody dry well in front of her, she responded in her heart, “ck Lotus, how tall is the golden body of a Great Emperor in the ancient times?”
ck Lotus was confused. He didn’t know why Su Li asked at all, but he still replied, “The so-called Great Emperors were immortals of your Human n, who exceeded Dacheng Realm. As for the height of their golden bodies, I really did not notice. But the real golden bodies of Great Emperors in Human n in my memory all had a height of more than six meters. Speaking of that, why did you suddenly ask?”
“Nothing.”
Su Li’s gaze shed, “But that sarcophagus is too small, and its contour is a little strange. I think it is like a posture after I recalled.”
“What posture?”
“Kneeling.”
...
In the ancient well of the ancestral temple, the twelve heads of the families of Nanli City had split up and finished searching the entire underground space very quickly.
“That should be all!”
“That Dr. Su is not here!”
“...”
The twelve heads of families gathered together, and their bright eyes all shed with greed.
The mostposed youth also revealed a smile with his eyes gleaming with greed.
“She hasn’t left, which means... there must be unknown secret passages under this well.”
The young practitioner looked young, but actually he was older than the old man and his cultivation was the highest among the group. He had broken through to the middle stage of Yuanying Realm. He also was the person that Madam Duan was afraid of most.
The words of the young practitioner cheered the crowd up.
“Let’s split up and keep searching. Don’t ignore any traces!”
These twelve people were shrewd, powerful, and had various unique means. In such an unprecedented cooperation, the crowd made a discovery very soon.
“Come over, everyone. The stone chippings here seem to be newly peeled off.”
As an elder transmitted his voice, the others appeared at his side in the next instant. They all stared at the unobtrusive stone chippings on the ground.
“They were peeled off...”
The youth picked up a piece of stone chipping and pondered. Then he subconsciously looked up.
Meanwhile, in the dark passage.
Su Li narrowed her eyes slightly and stepped into the bloody ancient well. Her figure was quickly swallowed by the darkness.
Right after her figure disappeared, the ancient well, which flickered a crimson light, was covered by ayer of frost. Thisyer of frost umted rapidly, and spread along the dark passage to the back of the sarcophagus in the blink of an eye.
Unexpectedly, the in andmon sarcophagus emitted a shimmering light and stopped the spread of the frost. Countless white light spots fused into the frost and aplex rune appeared in the nothingness.
Although those white light spots shone only for an instant, the light was bright enough for the heads of the families on the ground to see the scene above.
“Got it! There’s a sarcophagus up here!!!”
Some people couldn’t wait and flew up immediately from the front of the sarcophagus. Immediately, the white light spots shone around the sarcophagus again. But they dispersed before forming any sign maybe because they used too much force to stop the frost before.
The rest of the crowd couldn’t wait any longer when they saw there was no danger. They also flew to the top of the wall. After they saw the sarcophagus, they were surprised and studied it carefully.
“There are some characters here!”
The crowd found the line of characters on the bottom edge of the coffin quickly. It was iplete but enough for them to make an association.
“A tomb of a Great Emperor! This is a tomb of a Great Emperor!!!”
“What a surprise! A tomb of a Great Emperor. Hahaha... We will get rich!”
“Unexpectedly, the ancestor of the Duan Family was an immortal!”
“...”
At this moment, theposed young head of the family also could not hide the excitement on his face, “If I can get the treasures in this tomb, I will get a slight chance to be an emperor?”
At that moment, all of the people thought in this way in their mind. At the next instant, they began to search the tomb entrance even if they didn’t talk about the idea.
Greed went to their heads, so no one ever questioned why the most important sarcophagus was lying outside alone.
“I got something here. There’s a crack!”
“I saw it, too. There is something unknown inside that shed with blue lights. Be careful.”
The elder squatted and wiped the edges of the crack. His spection was verified. Heughed, “It’s right here. This gap was torn open by a person. That Dr. Su must be inside!”
“The entrance is right behind the sarcophagus!”
“Come on. Let’s pull this sarcophagus away together!”
As the young practitioner said that, the others had put their hands on the edges of the sarcophagus and were ready to pull.
“Ha-ha, with the united strength as ours, we won’t worry that we can’t enter the tomb of the Great Emperor!”
“Three!”
“Two!”
“One!”
The young practitioner grabbed the sarcophagus te with his one hand. His eyes rounded, and he pulled with all his force of Yuanying Realm!
“Rise!”
Boom!
Twelve different forces of Yuanying Realm suddenly worked on the decayed sarcophagus. It instantly shattered into pieces floating in the air. The rune pattern stabilized in the nothingness a moment before disappeared instantly.
The sleeping frost was activated immediately and revealed its fangs like a demon.
The twelve high-powered heads of families were horrified. Before they could escape, they were frozen by the thick coldness. The coldness gushed out of the dark passage like a wild animal showing its teeth and froze everything on its way!
“My dear, let’s leave when you get ready.”
Duan Rong pushed open the door with a warm smile. But the frost spread over and froze him in the doorway. The dignified woman looked up wonderingly and next moment she was covered by the frost as well.
“Daddy!”
Dou’er ran out from the inner room and saw this scene. She froze at this horrible moment.
The frost, like an escaped devil of ice, devoured everything greedily without end.
The Duan Family was frozen in the blink of an eye, followed by Nanli City, three major cities for practitioners, and the half Ghost Circle...
The world was shocked!!!
The ground quaked slightly. Su Li stopped her steps and looked back at the vortex which had disappeared, “It seemed that something happened outside.”
She withdrew her gaze soon. After regaining her calmness, she continued to walk toward the huge skeleton not far away.
“ck Lotus, that thing seems to be luring me.”
Having suppressed the restless desire in her heart, Su Li asked ck Lotus again, “You really have no idea what it is?”
ck Lotus replied with annoyance immediately, “I have told you countless times. The physical body of the Ghost n is not quite different from that of the Human n. So, the skeleton in this size mustn’t be from the Ghost n. I have no idea about this!”
Su Li nodded and said seriously, “You’ve said it only twice.”
ck Lotus put on a long face. When he was about to speak, Su Li’s voice came again, “You seem to have been very irritable since you came here.”
ck Lotus was slightly stunned and fell silent. After a while, he said with a muffled voice, “The smell here is nasty.”
“Why? This is the ancestralnd of you Ghost n. It should be nasty for me, a human, but not for you.”
“... No reason. Just forget it.”
ck Lotus stayed on the lotus tform of the ring. A rare glimpse of sadness swept over his eyes.
Su Li raised her eyebrows and didn’t ask any more.
The huge skeleton seemed to be not far away, but it took Su Li three days to get close to it.
There were restrictions in the ancestralnd, so she could only go by foot instead of flying. Different from ck Lotus, Su Li didn’t have that nasty feeling but felt rxed andfortable. Even the feeling of being spied all the time was gone.
Su Li looked up at the dark red sky and found it was extremely like the sky in the Chaos Zone.
It seemed that there was no living creatures or naturalw in this ce. So, she could use her full powers to fight against any demons or monsters without worrying about nature’s punishment.
Su Li narrowed her eyes. This was definitely good news for her.
With this in mind, she stopped thinking and stepped into the huge skeleton. She approached the ce that she sensed inside.
This huge skeleton of an unknown creature had a size of thousands of feet that Su Li even couldn’t see its end. It took Su Li another day to walk from its tail to its heart.
Atst, she reached the destination.
“Crash!”
Su Li cut open a membrane-like barrier with her sword. And then she stepped into the empty heart chamber. After ncing roughly through the dim space, she fixed her gaze on a fist-sized red crystal that was full of wrinkles.
“If I am right, this should be the heart of this monster. After so many years, its skin and flesh have decayed and the heart has also shrunk to a crystal. But the thing that canst so long must be valuable!”
ck Lotus wagged his head and spoke. Su Li walked closer to the crystal and the desire in her heart became more and more intense. She still remembered that the talent in her blood had not yet been fully awakened.
Since her rebirth in this life, she had just devoured a Ye Ji. Her blood had been restless and about to make trouble. But it was still very weak.
The gift of the Blood Poison was just an uncontroble idental consequence brought by her body of evil ghost after the breakthrough of her cultivation.
However, with her metamorphosis in the space of the Immortal Tea nt where her soul fell into the primal memories, she had acquired many things without a master and could even control a part of the Blood Poison.
ck Lotus seemed not to know the existence of that ce. Otherwise, he could have spected something.
Thinking of the age of ck Lotus, which was as old as Qingshui Circle, Su Li kept the whole secret for herself and told no one.
“Little Su Li, what are you waiting for? Hurry up to put this object away. And we still have to find a way to fight against nature’s punishment!”
Seeing that she still had time to be in a daze, ck Lotus couldn’t help but urge her.
As a light shed in Su Li’s eyes, she grabbed the blood-colored crystal without saying a word.
Crack!
Many cobweb-like rifts appeared on the surface of the crystal, and it scattered into pieces instantly!
At the same time, an ancient awareness was slowly wakening from it.
