Ling Tian Sword Emperor

Chapter 197: Shadow of the Ancient Tomb Beast

Deep in the glacier canyon.

Lin Che walked forward, and gradually slowed down after approaching here. Not long after, he discovered that there seemed to be an entrance ahead.

"Ahead, it should be the place where the Haoyue Clan's ancestral tomb is located."

Looking at the entrance, which was several meters wide and slightly dark, a solemn look flashed in Lin Che's eyes.

After hesitating on the spot, Lin Che finally walked forward.

Not long after, his figure passed through the corridor-like entrance and found that the space in front of him gradually became wider.

Here, it's as if an iceberg has been hollowed out.

But because of this, the moonlight does not come in, making it appear darker. Today's night seems to be covered with layers of fog.

Fortunately, Lin Che was already able to see in the dark, so it didn't have any impact.

At the same time, he raised his head and looked around. When he saw the scene in front of him, he was shocked.

"This is!"

In front of him, he saw dozens of huge coffins lying in front of him. These coffins were gray in color and covered with densely packed tadpole-like text symbols.

The four corners of these coffins were locked by four thick iron chains, suspended in mid-air.

Wow.

A gust of wind blew up, and the iron chains made a sound of gold and iron, which swayed far and wide in the ancient tomb space. All the coffins swayed back and forth with it. Not to mention how weird the scene was.

Looking at the scene in front of her, even Lin Che felt a little nervous.

"This should be the method of sky burial." At this moment, the voice of the goddess sounded and explained.

The Northern Wasteland is quite vast, so the funeral methods are different in many places.

Unlike most people who think that they should be buried in peace, some places will hang the coffins of their deceased predecessors and sages in the air, which is called sky burial. It is obvious that the Haoyue Sect is a force that believes in this custom.

Hearing this, Lin Che nodded, but at this moment, he seemed to have discovered something special.

"There seem to be several coffins that have fallen down. Is it because the chains hanging on them have broken due to the erosion of time?"

After Lin Che said this, she walked directly there.

But when he got closer, his expression suddenly changed, and he said in shock: "Wait... these coffins are actually empty, where are the corpses inside?"

"No, it's not empty, look there." At this moment, the goddess suddenly said.

Hearing this, Lin Che looked in the direction she said and saw some powder like powder, but the powder turned out to be human-shaped, scattered on the ground, and emitting a glittering light.

"This is?"

"These should be the corpses in the empty coffins, but they seem to have been absorbed by something, so they were broken into powder."

"What!" Lin Che was shocked when she heard this sentence.

As far as he knew, after a warrior reaches a certain level of cultivation, the physical body will undergo transformation. Even if the spiritual consciousness dissipates, the corpse will be immortal after death and will still contain some original energy.

But now the goddess said that the origin of the corpses of these sages of the Haoyue Sect was actually absorbed by something!

How can this be!

You must know that even the Qi Sea method practiced by Lin Che can only absorb the energy from some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and cannot plunder the cultivation of other warriors, let alone absorb the origin from corpses.

"Could it be that someone in the Haoyue Sect secretly practiced evil skills, and then sneaked into this place and absorbed the original energy in these corpses?"

Lin Che's first thought was that someone within the Haoyue Sect was practicing evil arts.

But then, he rejected this idea.

It's very simple. The exercises practiced by the Haoyue Sect have great requirements on the state of mind. If one of them practices evil and unusual exercises, others will usually notice them.

From this point of view, there is only the possibility that something evil has sneaked in here secretly.

Boom...

Just as Lin Che came up with this idea, she heard a faint sound coming from not far away.

"Who is that?" Lin Che concentrated and looked directly in that direction.

Swish——

As if being disturbed by Lin Che's shout, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the darkness and rushed towards the exit of the ancient tomb.

Seeing this, Lin Che did not hesitate at all. With a movement of her hand, a long sword appeared in his palm, and she slashed forward.

laugh!

This sword contained the wind attribute, and its speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had caught up with the black shadow that wanted to escape.

However, at this moment, the black figure suddenly twisted around and narrowly avoided the sword.

Peng!

The sword energy that hit the air finally penetrated the stone wall in the distance, causing rocks to fly suddenly.

"Looking for death, you dare to attack me!"

Although this sword missed the black shadow, it seemed to have angered the other party. When the black shadow fled, it also quickly launched an attack on Lin Che.

boom!

A fierce aura rushed towards her, Lin Che's expression changed, and the long sword in her hand directly blocked the opponent's attack.

when!

The long sword collided with the opponent's attack, stirring up a layer of fire. At this time, Lin Che's eyes froze slightly, because with the help of the fire, he could see clearly how the opponent launched an attack on him.

It turned out to be an animal claw.

That's right, it's a black animal claw, which looks thick and powerful, and the claws on it are also extremely sharp.

This made Lin Che conclude that the black shadow was a mysterious beast with considerable strength.

However, how could a mysterious beast speak human words and call himself the emperor?

You must know that on the Tianwu Continent, all the beasts have limited spiritual intelligence. Only those who have reached the level of Tianwu, which is equivalent to the human Tianwu realm, can transform into human forms and speak human words.

How does a mysterious beast do this?

So Lin Che was extremely surprised when she saw this scene.

Whoosh~~~

And at the moment when Lin Che was stunned, the black shadow flashed again and quickly rushed out of the ancient tomb.

"Such a speed!" Since Lin Che mastered the secret of wind, she has been able to easily overwhelm warriors of the same realm in terms of both her sword speed and body movements.

However, the aura of the realm he felt from this mysterious beast was similar to his own, but its speed was so shocking that even after a confrontation, he was unable to see the true face of this mysterious beast.

"This mysterious beast has a hint of... extraterrestrial aura!"

At the same time, just when Lin Che was hesitating whether to pursue or not.

In the divine jade space, the goddess frowned slightly and suddenly spoke at this moment.
