Chapter 1272: Continuous Appearance
n one in ten could escape with their lives. It is rumored that even Golden Core cultivators perished here, though it happened so long ago that it's hard to verify. However, for a Qi Refining cultivato..."What's wrong" Xiang Qingcheng looked at Lu Xiaodao, who had a grave expression beside her. 。The Soul Hound detected the auras of other powerful beings besides the Wind Snow Ogre. 。"Fighting alongside the Wind-Snow Ogre Ape is strange. Since they could fight with it, why didn't they appear during our previous duel Perhaps it was just a coincidence" Lu Xia Tian mused thoughtfully. 。I can't figure it out no matter how hard I try, might as well go and see for myself. 。Since there's a Spectral Hound present, we needn't worry about getting lost in the illusions. The floating coffin will appear, and I presume this Wind and Snow Giant Ape, along with whoever is accompanying it, will also return to the Demon-Suppressing Abyss and wait for the treasure to emerge. 。"Xiang Qingcheng said," 。“It’s also" 。Lu Xiaotian nodded, and with Xiang Qingcheng on his left and right, he protected the little white dog in the middle. Yin Yang Limping Demon was trailing behind them as they chased after the direction Feng Xue Giant Ape and You Yue Magic Eye had disappeared. 。At this time, Lu Xia Tian was still unaware that Zhao Xin, this old acquaintance, had already brought two powerful members of her clan to track him down into this Blood Miasma Cave. 。From afar, a vast, flat high source lay before me. A lake, stretching for tens of miles in every direction, its surface as smooth and flat as a mirror, shimmered with an obsidian black. The water was as dark as ink. 。Under a sky of deep blue, black snowflakes drifted. 。There was an eerie silence all around, for miles and miles. There was no sign of life anywhere. 。Only a world of ice and snow, black glaciers, black snow. 。Though this place is pitch black, the view here is much more open than in the Blood Cave or other parts of the ancient tomb. 。Walking on this black glacier, one can clearly see their reflection on the ice. 。Far more real than a mirror. 。Even the finest hairs 。“That black lake is the Devil's Pool.” 。Before the coffin appears, we best not get too close. Even the You Yue Demon Eye wouldn't approach within ten miles of the Fallen Demon Pool before the coffin appeared. 。There was an eerie silence, with not a single gust of wind whistling around, yet a bone-chilling cold pierced through to the very core. 。The crippled, lame monster of yin and yang, his injuries still not fully healed, shivered from the cold. 。It seemed that he didn't want to stay in this place for a moment, and the little white dog couldn't withstand the cold of this place either, already being taken into Ling Xiaitian's spirit beast bag. 。Lu Xia Tian threw another pot of Fierce Monkey Wine to Xiang Qingcheng. Although Xiang Qingcheng was in the middle stage of Yuanying, her mana recovery speed was a bit faster than his, but Lu Xia Tian's physical cultivation allowed him to have an exceptionally strong physique. Even without deliberately adjusting his mana, his resistance to this cold air could withstand a considerable part 。
In terms of mana consumption, it is far lower than Xiang Qingcheng.
Although Xiang Qingcheng possesses the至陽寶物 within her body, being trapped in this ancient tomb for an extended period takes a heavy toll. With no end in sight, the consumption of this treasure becomes increasingly significant. 。
Xiang Qingcheng once again took over Lu Xiaodai's Liehou wine. The fiery liquor spread through her meridians, the intense heat constantly working with the Kuiyang Golden Lock to expel the cold force invading her body.
"Can we still hold on for a while If that zhiyang treasure inside you isn't compromised, let's withdraw from this place and rest for a bit. " 。Lu Xia Tian anxiously glanced at Xiang Qing Cheng, this trip they were facing twelve ranks of demon clan, corpse king, and great demon level powerhouses. 。If Qiong City's magic power consumption is too much, Lu Xia Tian doesn't want to stir up such a dangerous place for nothing. 。As long as your spirit wine supply is ample and combined with my Kua Yang Golden Lock, it will be enough to withstand the astonishing cold of this place. 。"Xiang Qingcheng's eyes were resolute. After finally breaking into this place, how could she return empty-handed" 。At the same time, she was also a little puzzled. It seemed that Lu Xiaoteng had prepared so much of this Fiery Monkey Wine. Not only could it help her resist the strange cold here, but it could also speed up her mana circulation and reduce consumption. 。Such a rare treasure, it would be hard to see even in Xiangdu. It's impossible to drink so freely like this. 。This silver-haired Eastern man could without batting an eyelid, directly give it to her. He wasn't a stingy person, after all. 。"Golden Armored Corpse King, there are also others with similar strength who haven't arrived yet..." 。“The Yin-Yang limping monster glanced around.” 。"Wrong, who said they haven't arrived yet " 。“Lu Xia Tian shook his head and smiled, “King Jin Jia Shi, Green Eyed Monster, since you’re here, why not appear before me”
“Friend Dao has good eyesight, to actually discover us”
As expected, an astonishing sound erupted. On this seemingly flat and deserted ice plateau, thousands of feet away from the group, on the black ice surface, several streaks suddenly appeared out of thin air... 。At the front was the towering, gold-armored Twelfth Stage Corpse King. Following closely behind was the elder with azure eyes, and then five other Corpse Kings of slightly lesser strength. 。"You two look unfamiliar, you must be entering this ancient tomb for the first time. To find the Devil's Fall in such a short amount of time is truly remarkable." 。At this time, the Golden Armored Corpse King completely stopped talking about taking Xiang Qingcheng back to be his queen. 。“No matter how hard you try, you'll still be chased by the Corpse King.” 。"Lu Xia Tian replied in a low voice, "I didn't expect you, Shi Wang, to have such a wide circle of friends. I didn't know you had such a good relationship with the Green-Eyed Monster." 。A flicker of embarrassment crossed the Cyclops' eyes. 。The Golden Armored Corpse King let out a chuckle and then smiled, saying, "It's mutual. I didn't expect you to have such shallow connections with the Lame Monster under Moonlit Demon Eye's command either." 。It had been a long time since anyone new had joined, and even then it was a human. 。"What brings you here" A gruff voice boomed, and on the black ice mirror extending for a thousand zhang, another gigantic projection appeared. 。A colossal griffon with a wingspan spanning dozens of meters swooped down. Its massive wings, thick and covered in swirling azure energy, appeared to be bristling with countless ice-wind blades poised to strike. 。“Having heard of the reputation of this Devil's Pit, I naturally came to the Devil's Pit to find treasure.” 。"Xiang Qingcheng said" 。“Just a mere Nascent Soul mid-stage, one at the early stage, and another injured fellow, they dare to claim they came here to seek treasure. I think it would be more appropriate for them to serve as treasures themselves.” 。Once again, a voice, aged and worn, echoed... 。A giant black tortoise, about several dozen feet in diameter, was seen floating in the sky, riding the clouds and mist. It seemed to be moving slowly, but in the blink of an eye, it came from dozens of miles away to appear before everyone. 。This tortoise is none other than the twelfth-ranked bull turtle. 。The black eyes of the turtle swept across Lu Xiaoteng and his companions, a sinister smile creeping onto its face. "In recent years, that coffin's appetite has grown larger and larger. I don't even know if the few humans I caught will be enough as sacrifices..." 。"To sacrifice this coffin, it's not necessarily only human cultivators. Perhaps your demon clan or even the demon clan would be equally suitable." 。Lu Xia Tian met his gaze directly and said, “One coffin from the Devil's Pool has attracted so many powerful figures. Under the scrutiny of these experts, now is not the time to appear weak.” 。"Such bold words!" Gu Gui roared, his voice echoing before two surges of sword intent erupted from Lu Xia Tian and Xiang Qing Cheng respectively. On this eerily silent black glacier, they churned up two colossal whirlpools. 。 thunder. But compared to the scene before them, it was nothing short of insignificant."Damn it, will this goddamn tribulation thunder ever end" While resisting the power of the lightning, the Heaven...
