Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

Hearing this, the white-robed man's eyes flickered, and then he also looked at the corpse.

Just as they were examining the corpse, trying to find the cause of death, suddenly, the corpse began to tremble violently, as if it had turned into a zombie.

Out of natural vigilance, just as the corpse began to change, they fled towards the passage at top speed without hesitation.

However, what no one expected was that when they turned back to check on the corpse, they suddenly discovered that the corpse did not show any terrifying anomalies as they had imagined. In fact, they couldn't detect any trace of danger from it.

After confirming this, their minds were filled with deep confusion and surprise.

However, the white-robed man's expression quickly turned cold again: "Humph, I don't care what it is, if it's acting mysteriously here, then it can just die!"

Since he couldn't figure out why the corpse had become like this, the white-robed man, adhering to the principle of 'out of sight, out of mind,' waved his left hand, and the long sword hidden in his sleeve instantly flew out, slashing fiercely. Immediately, a blue sword light flashed, and with the power of thunder, it bombarded the mutated corpse.

"Bang!"

Like a knife cutting through tofu, the sword light effortlessly pierced into the corpse's body. After a loud noise, its black and smelly body instantly fell apart.

All of this went very smoothly. The corpse didn't even put up any resistance and dissipated under the impact of the sword light.

However, even so, the white-robed man still didn't relax. He gripped his sword tightly and looked around vigilantly.

After scanning around, everything remained quiet, and nothing happened.

Only after seeing this scene did the white-robed man breathe a sigh of relief and lower the sword in his hand.

"It seems it was indeed a false alarm." With his face returning to composure, the white-robed man smiled slightly and said calmly.

The blue-robed man nodded, but soon after, he spoke again: "Then, Brother Zeng, what should we do now? Should we continue forward or return the way we came?"

Although he was praising him on the surface, Chen Tian keenly noticed a strange look flashing in his eyes as he said this.

Chen Tian couldn't quite describe the feeling, but he faintly felt that this person must be plotting some unspeakable secret.

While Chen Tian was pondering, the two had already prepared themselves again and stopped investigating the other corpses. Instead, they walked straight towards an entrance on the south side of the cave.

Seeing the two take action, Chen Tian immediately withdrew his thoughts and, wrapped in the Heaven-Concealing Feather Shawl, slowly followed behind them.

When Chen Tian walked into this cave and passed by those corpses, although he was also very curious about the cause of death of these people, in order not to alert the enemy, he ultimately didn't stop to examine them. Instead, he continued to follow the two and walked into the entrance on the south side of the cave.

However, what Chen Tian didn't see was that just after he entered the south entrance, a strange beetle suddenly flew out from the head of the corpse that had just been blown apart by the white-robed man.

This beetle was three inches long, golden all over, and when its wings vibrated, it would make an extremely faint 'buzzing' sound.

If Chen Tian saw this beetle, he would definitely be shocked, because this beetle was extremely similar to the Xuan-Demon Corpse Beetles in the Fallen Immortal Valley.

The only difference was that the color of the skin of the Xuan-Demon Corpse Beetles in Fallen Immortal Valley was cyan, while the color of these beetles was golden.

However, apart from this slight difference, the other aspects were exactly the same!

"Buzz... Buzz buzz buzz..."

At the same time, in this silent cave, more and more noisy sounds echoed. On the remaining twenty corpses, golden beetles emerged again!

These beetles seemed to have been asleep for thousands of years and then suddenly awakened. After the initial daze, they vibrated their wings and flew into the entrance that Chen Tian and the others had just entered.

Moreover, at this time, a golden aura shone on these beetles. Wrapped in these auras, the noises they created were strangely concealed.

At this time, they were like ghosts, quietly following behind everyone, silently approaching!

… … … … … … … … … … … … … …

Of course, Chen Tian and the others, who had already entered the entrance, were completely unaware of these strangely appearing golden beetles.

Their eyes were quietly fixed on the front!

Although the back of this entrance was also a passage, compared to the previous passage, this passage seemed much shorter. After only half an hour, they saw a light emerging in front of the passage.

Seeing this scene, both the white-robed man and the blue-robed man became excited. They knew that where there was light, there was an exit.

Was the treasure they had been searching for so hard located inside?

Thinking of this, the two's moods became a little anxious, so they quickened their pace and instantly walked out of this passage.

And the scene they saw the moment they walked out of the passage made them excited!
