Chapter 574 Unexpected Discovery
Phew!
Ye Kang rode the Frost Wyvern, looking at the scene ahead with some surprise.
Beneath the snow and wind, wondrous forces of heaven and earth formed an array, completely enveloping the ground below.
This is absolutely not something that can be done by human power; rather, it seems to be a natural formation automatically created by heaven and earth.
At this moment, Wang Xu and the others continued their pursuit.
Without hesitation, Ye Kang sent the Frost Wyvern swooping down.
When it was still a thousand feet above the ground, the layers of heaven and earth's immense power suddenly opened a giant maw and swallowed the Frost Wyvern whole.
Along with Wang Xu and the others behind him, they were caught off guard and pulled down by this force of heaven and earth before they could even react.
At this moment, Wang Xu felt a pang of regret.
I should have known better than to follow so closely; now I'm really going to die.
Below the Sky-Cutting Cliff lies what is arguably the most dangerous place in the entire icy plains, a place even the strongest in the War God Cave has never explored.
Now that I've been dragged down, I'm completely in the dark and know nothing at all.
At the same time, Ye Kang also felt his heart pounding. The power of the ice field was too overwhelming. He had no power to resist and could only watch as the Frost Wyvern charged onto the ice and smashed a huge ice hole.
Boom!
Ice shards flew everywhere from the impact, and Ye Kang dodged and rolled, landing steadily.
At that moment, a system notification sounded.
【Ding】
[Congratulations, host, on completing part of the Trial of the Dead. You have gained 200000 Comprehension Points.]
Ye Kang quickly glanced at it, and sure enough, the trial mission to participate in the treasure hunt had been completed.
He breathed a sigh of relief; after all, the outcome was good.
He looked up at the sky again, and sure enough, Wang Xu and the others fell down.
They really are persistent.
Ye Kang shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Fellow Daoist Wang, you've been chasing us all this way, aren't you tired?"
Wang Xu climbed out of the snow pit, spitting out a mouthful of snow, and panted, "You brat, who do you think you are, daring to call me a fellow Daoist? If you don't hand over your Heartfire today, we won't let you off the hook!"
Boom!
Wang Xu shattered his clothes, revealing an incredibly tough body with bulging muscles and golden light emanating from his entire body, as if he had practiced the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.
This time he was smarter. Without saying a word, he immediately threw a punch at Ye Kang.
The latter, upon seeing the strange golden body technique, felt a sense of curiosity.
Could this be the War God's Manual?
He made his move with suspicion, unleashing the Tyrant Whale Divine Fist without any attempt to dodge, directly exchanging blows with Wang Xu.
The others couldn't help but look at Ye Kang with new respect. This kid was not only fast, but also had extraordinary courage.
He dared to exchange punches with Wang Xu; he truly didn't know how powerful the War God Cave was.
Some people have already imagined the horrific state of Ye Kang's shattered fist bones.
However, the next second, the force of the punch erupted, and the golden light and the phantom of the Tyrant Whale collided.
Ye Kang did not back down at all, nor did his expression change. On the contrary, Wang Xu felt a sharp pain in his arm and his face turned pale instantly.
how can that be!
Why is my own body inferior to this pretty boy!
Indeed, Wang Xu immediately sensed the difference. The opponent's physical body looked ordinary, but its strength was definitely higher than his own.
No, it surpasses everyone in the War God Cave!
How did they quench this thing?!
He roared and continued to exert force, but Ye Kang had a thought and thrust out the Reverse Horse Needle, which shattered Wang Xu's spiritual defense with a whoosh.
The latter couldn't dodge in time, his breathing became disordered, and he was instantly blasted away, crashing into an iceberg.
"You're cheating! How can a Body Tempering Martial Artist use divine sense to attack in a fight!"
Someone shouted angrily.
Ye Kang chuckled softly: "When did I ever say I was a body tempering martial artist? I just like body tempering."
He walked slowly forward, and countless auras instantly locked onto him.
They might not be able to win one-on-one, but with so many of them together, the tribal warriors were not afraid at all.
Just as tensions were about to rise, Wang Xu's voice rang out: "Stop! Something's strange here!"
Everyone turned to look, and with a loud bang, the iceberg burst open. Wang Xu climbed up from the middle, shirtless, and grabbed a long sword from inside the iceberg.
This sword is extremely beautiful and ornate, clearly belonging to a noble young master, with a mesmerizing blue gemstone inlaid in the center of the hilt.
Wang Xu drew his sword, looked around blankly, and his expression was very complicated.
Logically speaking, obtaining such a well-preserved and magnificent longsword should be an extremely fortunate opportunity for him, and he should be happy.
But for some reason, the moment he drew his sword, a strange and sinister feeling enveloped the entire world.
Everyone, including Ye Kang, felt a chill run down their spines.
This is extremely abnormal!
Wang Xu frowned and carefully examined the sword.
"This sword is of ancient design and appears to be completely undamaged, but why does it cause such unease..."
He couldn't help but stare at the enchanting blue gem on the hilt of the sword.
The next second, the gem trembled suddenly and turned from blue to blood red.
Immediately, countless dark clouds descended with the snow and wind, and the world instantly became extremely gloomy.
"This...this...this is an evil object!"
"What on earth is going on! Master, quickly throw away that sword!"
"This sword is strange; I fear it may bring calamity!"
"That's too late."
Ye Kang spoke calmly.
With his Azure Eyes of Innocent Activation activated, he saw what others could not see: within the hilt of the sword, or more precisely, within the gemstone, countless evil thoughts surged forth.
The next second, bursts of wailing arose out of nowhere, sharp and heart-wrenching, as if they had suffered an immense ordeal.
Immediately afterwards, a wisp of gray mist shot out of the gem and condensed in the air into a gray, sinister figure.
Although their faces were obscured, everyone could sense the extreme resentment emanating from them.
Ye Kang's eyes narrowed as he recalled the Whale Slayer he had encountered in the Scripture Pavilion of the Tyrant Whale Sect.
As Tu Jingjun once said, 100,000 years ago, some of those who died in battle left behind a backup plan. For example, Tu Jingjun left his divine soul fragment in the Tyrant Whale Map.
Although most of the second moves failed, some succeeded.
Could it be...
The owner of this figure was also a member from 100,000 years ago.
That sword was his backup plan.
Wang Xu unexpectedly discovered that he had finally awakened it.
Sure enough, the gray figure swept its resentful gaze over everyone, then over the swirling snow and the endless glaciers.
A series of bitter laughs filled with sorrow rang out.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Xu suddenly collapsed to the ground.
His eyes were lifeless, like a walking corpse.
It turned out that the moment Wang Xu and Baoshi locked eyes, he had already fallen into the trap.
At this moment, it seemed that his spiritual power had been completely exhausted, and he had fainted.
The figure's eyes were red, as if it had absorbed Wang Xu's soul power and was currently digesting Wang Xu's memories.
This scene was truly terrifying. Just how powerful must an existence be to so easily render Wang Xu unable to fight!
"I...I can't take it anymore, I'm running away!"
