Chapter 542 Iron Corpse Sheath
master craftsman. He had combined countless small knives together, and within them were intricate mechanisms that moved according to the wielder's intent. Unless a Golden Core cultivator far superior...Ten days later, Lu Xia Tian had not used the Boundary Breaking Worm. Relying on his own expertise in formation restrictions, he still couldn't find the restrictions of this place. Not only was there a faint, eerie aura within the cave, but also an unusual spiritual energy.
When others heard Chi Yun Sang's transmission, they each passed through the waterfall and poured into the cave. Seeing Chi Yun Sang leading the way, Lu Xia Tian sighed inwardly. Although he knew this place was unusual, with Chi Yun Sang leading the way, he didn't notice anything amiss, and naturally, the others didn't think there was anything wrong either. Even if he knew something was wrong, there was nothing he could do about it. However, the more this was the case, the more Lu Xia Tian felt that something was wrong. Compared to spending several years breaking the outer restrictions before and finding the entrance to the Misty Hall, taking over a year and a half to walk the blue plank road, at this time, facing his obvious question, Chi Yun Sang clearly lacked enough patience.
Just as Lu Xia Tian was hesitating, a gust of dark wind suddenly struck. Lu Xia Tian was taken aback. If it hadn't been for his deputy Yuanshen constantly vigilant about his surroundings, he would have almost missed this sinister energy.
Lu Xia Tian's dodging maneuver caused the mountain to shake. The cave that had previously appeared solid and impenetrable now crumbled as a large number of stones fell, instantly filling the passage they had just traversed with rubble.

A black shadow flashed, moving at an unimaginable speed, carrying a deadly aura towards Lu Xia Tian. Lu Xia Tian held the Earth Splitter Blade in both hands and slashed directly across. The terrifying death energy spread out, and even Lu Xia Tian felt a shiver down his spine just by coming into contact with it.

With a resounding clang, the Splitting Earth Blade seemed to strike against an unbreakable piece of jade. However, Lu Xia Tian hadn't expected to defeat his opponent with a single blow. Instead, he used the recoil from the impact to quickly retreat, simultaneously splitting into a shadow clone identical to himself.
That black shadow let out a hiss, and at the same time, another aura approached. It was Chi Yun Sang. Lu Xiaotian's heart pounded. He hastily swallowed the eighth-order Deep Sea Azure Demon Ape's divine soul essence. His physical strength surged instantly. In this winding and narrow mountain path, the explosive power brought by physical strength was even faster than that of pure cultivation.
The shadow struck again, tearing through Lu Xiaoteng's shadow clone. But by this time, Lu Xiaoteng had already borrowed strength from several successive movements and instantly leaped dozens of meters away.
The shadow hesitated for a moment, clearly not expecting Lu Xiaoteng, who looked to be the weakest, to be so fast. He even missed his target. Seeing the other cultivators on high alert, he let out a cold snort and pounced on the rest.
The three new cultivators who had just joined were the worst hit. Although they were all at the middle stage of Jindan, when their Dan Yuan artifacts struck the black shadow, they reacted similarly to Lu Xiaofeng's Splitting Earth Blade and were quickly bounced back.
A scream pierced the air, and when Lu Xia Tian turned around, he saw the shadow pounce on a newly arrived Jindan cultivator, a one-legged man. It was only then that Lu Xia Tian could see clearly what the shadow looked like – two pairs of sharp fangs, a bluish-black face devoid of normal flesh and blood, replaced by thin strips of bluish-black skin tightly bound to the withered bones. A pair of sunken eyes, filled with ferocity and cunning, radiated intelligence unnatural for corpses or zombies. Its entire body was covered in gold armor like that of a spiritual golden steel, radiating a golden aura atypical of undead creatures.
"Iron Corpse Sheath!" A terrifying monster suddenly flashed through Lu XiaTian's mind.
The iron corpse's sharp teeth pierced through the crippled middle-aged man's neck with ease. The crippled middle-aged man struggled frantically as he neared death, his fists and feet landing on the iron corpse's body. The iron corpse remained unresponsive. Within a few breaths, the crippled middle-aged man, a cultivator of the Golden Core stage, fell silent. His full body rapidly contracted and in the blink of an eye, transformed into a corpse shell similar to the iron corpse. However, unlike the iron corpse, the middle-aged man's body was tinged with color, his aura far weaker than the iron corpse's powerful presence. His eyes were lifeless and hollow, lacking the cunning and ferocity of the iron corpse's gaze.
“Equator friend, quickly block this iron corpse sheath!” Seeing the brutality of the iron corpse sheath, Wang Tu Gui and others were frightened. The lame middle-aged man was also in the middle stage of Jindan. Although he may not have entered the middle stage of Jindan for long, facing this iron corpse sheath being defeated so easily, becoming a lifeless and ghostly ordinary corpse sheath, even his primordial spirit was absorbed by the iron corpse sheath, it was simply more terrifying than death.
Even cultivators at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm were no match for it. Among those present, perhaps only Chiyun Sang possessed the strength to hold it back. With everyone else flanking and assisting, they might be able to subdue this Iron Corpse Sheath.
"It seems these people still haven't woken up to the danger of Chiyun Sang. " Lu Xiaoteng said with a hint of mockery at the corner of his eye, his body began to retreat rapidly. From the moment he appeared from the iron corpse sheath and absorbed the crippled middle-aged man into death, Lu Xiaoteng understood why Chiyun Sang had acted so strangely before. The reason Chiyun Sang didn't care about his life and death before breaking the island entry restriction was because only after entering the island would these people be valuable to him. So after entering the island, several times in danger, especially him and Zhao Nanxing, Chiyun Sang would take action to resolve the crisis several times. Later, when Zhao Nanxing and Yu Xiao were accidentally killed by the skinny nun, the reduction in numbers enraged Chiyun Sang very much. This forced the remaining three who couldn't escape to join this temporary team, ensuring a certain number of people in the team.
And when Chi Yun Sang's ultimate purpose dawned on him, Lu Xiao Tian felt a chill run down his spine. It was probably to feed this Iron Corpse Sheath with the flesh and blood of these people! Such sinister schemes, such vicious intentions! Chi Yun Sang had spent over a hundred years in this Miao Yao Hall, and with his power and familiarity with the place, he was far more knowledgeable than anyone else. He had gone to great lengths to send these cultivators here as offerings to the Iron Corpse Sheath. His motives must be extraordinary. Thinking back to the Array Master who died before him, his mastery of arrays was probably no less than Chi Yun Sang's. One couldn't help but wonder if he was silenced by either Chi Yun Sang or the Iron Corpse Sheath.
Regardless of what, with the retreat cut off, it's impossible to escape through the original exit at this time. Besides, the Broken Realm Formation wouldn't mistake the feeling of the strange restriction, and Chi Yun Sang had prepared for this a long time ago, so how could he give these people a chance to escape After all, Chi Yun Sang, a cultivator in the late Golden Core stage, was fully prepared, so it wasn't that easy for them to escape.

Besides, Chi Yun Sang was still not far from the cave entrance at this time. It was impossible to take this road again. While others were calling for Chi Yun Sang, Lu Xiaotian swallowed the eighth-order primordial spirit essence of the Deep Sea Azure Demon Ape at this time. He became as light as an ape, and his body's explosive power was astonishingly powerful, even surpassing that of a Golden Core Stage cultivator by a significant margin. With a few jumps, he fled deeper into the unknown.asp.At first, the gray thread shot out from Lu Xia Tian's fingertips was rather awkward and not very flexible. The Huo Jiao essence could escape in all directions, but this cave had been sealed by Lu...
