C4335 What Do I Need You For?
This was like an ancient primitive forest. There was no path that mortals could walk on, and it was filled with danger. Occasionally, there would be Demonic Beast roaming about. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't easily set foot in this place, let alone mortals.
"Senior, this is the place."
The elder brought Ning Qi to a stone wall. This stone wall was covered in moss, and there were some tiny streams of water that flowed down from above.
"This used to be a waterfall."
The elder sighed softly. "In the end, there were two seniors who fought here a few years ago, and they directly cut off the water source, causing it to change its path."
Spiritual Qi flashed across Ning Qi's eyes. With his current grade of Immortal Eye... This meant that the old man had either lied to him. Or this place was covered by special Restriction set up by the Profound Corpse Sect, completely concealing the aura of the copper armored corpse.
"Open the door."
Ning Qi said with a faint smile.
The old man showed a trace of hesitation on his face. After that, he said with embarrassment, "Senior, after refining the bronze armored corpse, you must let this junior live."
"You just need to say a few more words, and there will be no way for you to live anymore."
Ning Qi said in a flat tone.
The old man was startled for a moment, then he hurried to the stone wall and cast some kind of Secret Technique. Not long after that, the stone wall flashed, and a black fog emerged, turning into a huge door.
"Senior, this door has been opened."
The old man cupped his fists.
"This door is quite unique."
Ning Qi saw that after the old man casted the Secret Technique, the black spiritual energy in this place immediately surged like waves. The aura was many times stronger than before. It could be seen that there was indeed some kind of Restriction in this place.
"You go in first."
Ning Qi said with a faint smile.
The old man was startled for a moment, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Alright, I'll explore the way for senior."
After saying that, he slowly walked into the gate formed by the thick black fog. At that moment, a cold sneer flashed across the old man's eyes. He turned around and looked at Ning Qi.
"No matter how cunning you are, you still have to drink my feet washing water. This place has experienced the various formations set up by my Profound Corpse Sect's several generations of Sect Leaders, even if the Golden Body Ancestor comes. A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator like you can just stand by the door and watch! "
After sneering, his figure immediately disappeared into the black door. The black fog also dispersed, and the cliff returned to its original appearance.
After a few breaths of silence, Ning Qi suddenly smiled. Then he directly waved his fist and smashed it on the cliff.
Bang!
With a loud sound, a black fog appeared on the cliff and dissolved most of the force in Ning Qi's punch.
Inside the cliff.
It was like a palace. When the old man heard the loud noise outside, he couldn't help but laugh strangely. "Are you angry from embarrassment? Hehe, since you've spoiled my method of raising corpses, I'll play with you. So what if you're at the Foundation Establishment stage? Aren't you going to just stand here and watch? "
Then, he ignored the loud noise outside. He walked down the corridor and came to another stone room. In this stone room, there were two Bronze Coffins.
Lying inside were all bronze armored corpses left behind by generations of ancestors of the Black Corpse Sect. The strange thing was that there were some imprints next to the coffin, as if there had been many coffins here before, but there were only two right now.
"What a pity. If I was at the Foundation Establishment stage, I would have been able to use the bronze armored corpses to have the status of a Golden Core old ancestor. Ai. "
The old man sighed softly. He looked back and forth between the two Bronze Coffins, and finally chose one. "It's you. When I leave this place, I'll sell you. I don't believe that I won't have the chance to reach the Foundation Establishment stage in my entire life.
At first, you said that my aptitude was poor, and directly rejected me from outside the mountain gate. Fortunately, your Profound Corpse Sect was immediately annihilated. Hehe, no matter how poor my aptitude was, didn't I still obtain all of the inheritance of your Profound Corpse Sect? "
The loud noise outside continued.
The corner of the old man's mouth rose slightly. "Truly persistent, it's simply a joke. I'll stay here for a year and a half, and see if you still have this kind of patience!"
Not long after, he suddenly realized that the loud noise was getting louder and louder. The ground also began to shake gradually. Even the ceiling had sand falling down.
"What's going on?"
The old man's face revealed a hint of shock, and he hurriedly ran into the tunnel, staring straight ahead.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The loud sound continued.
Cold sweat suddenly appeared on the old man's face. He wiped the sweat off his face and muttered to himself in a comforting manner:
"Impossible, unless it's a Golden Core, how could it break through the Restriction here? The Black Corpse Sect was a first-class sect in the north, after all, and left such a place behind. It definitely wouldn't be broken by a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator with brute force. It definitely wouldn't be like this! "
Crack!
A crack suddenly appeared on the wall.
Before the old man could react, with a bang, gravel flew everywhere. Sunlight shone in from the outside and immediately swept away some of the Yin Qi inside.
The old man stared at Ning Qi with his mouth agape. His eyes were almost opened to the limit.
"The Restriction here is really powerful. If it wasn't for the Golden Core Stage, I really wouldn't have been able to break through it."
Ning Qi smiled at the old man.
Metal, a Golden Core Stage?
The old man looked at Ning Qi and stammered, "Y-you're the Golden Core old ancestor?"
"What else?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"Then why did you tell me you were only at the Foundation Establishment stage?"
The old man took a deep breath.
"When did I ever say something like that to you?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
... ""
The old man carefully recalled the details, and his face became extremely dull.
The other party really didn't say anything. Everything was just his wishful thinking of the other party as a Foundation Establishment cultivator!
"Damn it! If I knew that he was a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, I wouldn't have schemed like this!"
The old man wished he could give himself two big slaps.
"When you just came in, I didn't hear what you said to me clearly. Why don't you repeat it again?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"Senior, it's a misunderstanding. This junior just came in to clean up the place. After all, no one has stepped foot in this place for many years. It's just dust. It's not enough to receive senior."
The old man said hastily.
"That's not what you said just now.
I remember you said you wanted me to drink your feet washing water, and you still wanted me to stare outside? "
Ning Qi smiled.
Putong!
The old man dropped to his knees and said, "Senior, please forgive me. Junior will now bring senior to see the bronze armored corpse. After senior refines them, senior's strength will definitely increase greatly. Who else can compete with a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
"Since I am here, I naturally know where the copper armored corpses are. Their auras are so obvious. Do you really think the Immortal Eye Technique is just for show?
Therefore, what do I need you for?"
Ning Qi smiled.
With a light wave of his hand, the old man's body seemed as if it had suffered a heavy blow, and it smashed violently onto the stone wall. He'd already suffered a heavy injury earlier, and coupled with this strike, he'd completely lost all signs of life.
