C1340 Surround and Annihilate

After hearing this, Zhou Yan raised his eyelids and said in surprise: "Could it be that the bones in the ancient tomb are Demonic Beasts?"

"Yes, that's right." Gu Heng nodded his head and said, "This corpse was extremely strong when it was alive. Even after falling for a thousand years, it was still able to create strong ripples that shook the entire cave, causing the earth to crack and the underground palace to collapse."

Hearing that, Zhou Yan sighed with emotion. Gu Heng was indeed worthy of being a cultivator. He had been dead for countless years, and with just a corpse, he was able to fight against a powerful cultivator. From this, it could be inferred that Gu Heng's combat strength when he was alive had definitely reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

Unfortunately, in the end, he was still surrounded and killed by the experts of the cultivation world.

"Don't you think it's strange?"

Suddenly, Gu Heng changed the topic and said, "Logically speaking, if Immortal Cultivators fall, their bones should turn into ashes. Why are they preserved?"

"Senior, do you mean that Senior Gu is not completely dead and is still alive?" Zhou Yan was startled.

"My memories are blurry, but I still remember this point." Gu Heng said in a deep voice, "Perhaps I can help you awaken this trace of obsession and regain control of your body."

"Senior Gu, please speak..." Zhou Yan was excited and quickly said, "If Senior can help me recover my physical body, I am willing to do anything for Senior..."

To Zhou Yan, as long as he could regain his physical body, no matter how difficult or tiring the conditions were, it would be worth it for him to work hard.

Furthermore, as long as Gu Heng woke up and gave him a few pointers, he would be able to save him five hundred years of hard work.

"Little guy, you don't have to worry."

Sensing Zhou Yan's attitude, Gu Heng laughed and said, "With your talent and potential, in the future, you will definitely be able to step onto the path of cultivation, and even surpass my past achievements..."

"Senior is too kind." Zhou Yan humbly shook his head. After knowing Gu Heng, he was broad-minded and confident in his future.

"Hahaha..." Gu Heng raised his head and laughed, as if he had returned to his youth.

...

Night fell.

A crescent moon hung in the sky.

Zhou Yan sat in front of the grave with his legs crossed. His fists were placed on his knees. With a serious expression, he closed his eyes to rest.

After a long while.

"Phew..." Zhou Yan opened his eyes and exhaled.

Immediately after, Zhou Yan took out a silver needle and pierced through the skin of his left arm, squeezing out a drop of blood that dripped into the coffin.

Buzz!

The silver needle trembled and emitted a red light, as if it had come to life.

In an instant, the silver needle trembled as if it was alive and started to move around the coffin, leaving behind a trail of blood before finally gathering on his right hand.

Weng ~ ~

Suddenly, blood poured out and entered the coffin.

Beng! Beng!

The coffin started to shake as if something was going to come out from it.

"Arghh...."

Zhou Yan cried out in fear as his face turned pale and his entire body trembled.

"Calm down, don't panic..." Gu Heng's voice sounded. It was slightly indifferent, but it had a kind of magic that made people calm down.

Gu Heng was a cultivator, so he naturally knew that Zhou Yan's current condition was only caused by fear. As long as he could endure this period of time, he would naturally be able to adjust.

Sure enough, before Zhou Yan could recover his senses, a ball of black mist appeared and quickly spread out, enveloping Zhou Yan's entire body.

"Ah..." Zhou Yan screamed and struggled to dodge. However, he could only watch helplessly as the black mist wrapped around his body.

"Sizzle sizzle..."

The moment the black mist touched Zhou Yan's skin, it immediately corroded his skin. In an instant, dense blisters of blood appeared on his skin, causing him to feel extreme pain.

"Puchi..."

Immediately after, his flesh burst open, and a thick smell of blood assaulted his nostrils.

Zhou Yan let out a muffled groan as beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead. His face became twisted and hideous as if he was in extreme pain.

"Senior Gu, save me..." Zhou Yan wailed.

At this moment, Gu Heng stood beside the grave with his hands behind his back. His expression was cold and indifferent.

"Senior, save me..." Zhou Yan cried.

"Gu Heng, don't forget your promise."

Gu Heng harrumphed coldly and said in a cold tone: "I said that you will never be able to leave the ancient tomb. Since you broke your promise, you should pay the price."

Although Gu Heng wasn't alive, his name was still deeply ingrained in people's hearts.

All Immortal Cultivators were revered experts.

In the cultivation world, strength was respected, and the strong preyed on the weak.

"Senior, I was wrong..."

Zhou Yan begged, his heart filled with regret. He wished he could slap himself twice. He clearly knew Gu Heng's temperament, so why did he bring up these old grudges?

At this moment, Zhou Yan only hoped that Gu Heng would forgive him for his slip of the tongue and not take his life.

"Sigh..."

Gu Heng sighed, "Kid, I did make a promise, but I couldn't bear to see someone go astray. So I decided to cripple your cultivation and send you back to your original realm to be reborn..."

"What?" Zhou Yan was stunned.

"Brat, you are very talented and hardworking. I have given you a great opportunity, but you don't know how to cherish it and insist on seeking your own death."

Gu Heng said softly, "I have tried my best, but I still couldn't stop the tragedy from happening..."

Hearing this, Zhou Yan's face was filled with shock and disbelief.

No matter how hard he tried, he could not understand why Gu Heng would give up on him.

Could it be that Gu Heng had already predicted that he would die a violent death?

But, why would Gu Heng have such a prediction? Could it be that Gu Heng had predicted this day dozens of years ago? This was simply too exaggerated. Gu Heng couldn't be a monster, right...

"Little guy, don't worry."1

With a wave of Gu Heng's sleeve, a vast and unfathomable force suddenly swept over, locking down Zhou Yan's four limbs and pressing him to the ground.

Immediately after, Gu Heng extended his withered palm and pressed it on Zhou Yan's shoulder. Strands of pure Yuan Qi poured into Zhou Yan's body.

In that instant, Zhou Yan's entire body stiffened as if there was an electric current running through his entire body. As the Qi entered his body, the pain subsided and he felt warm and comfortable.

"* Rumble ~ ~ ~ *"

A moment later, Zhou Yan heard a thunderous sound.

At the same time, an illusory door slowly appeared, and a bright light gushed out from the gap between the doors.

"The door has opened."

Zhou Yan's eyes widened in excitement as his heart raced. He hurriedly got up and rushed to the door crack to peek outside.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

In an instant, everyone's gazes turned towards him.

"Hiss!"

Zhou Yan sucked in a breath of cold air as his pupils contracted in shock.

Outside the door, in the dark environment, stood countless Corpse Worms.

These Corpse Bugs were shaped like spiders and were three inches long. They were small and had bulging abdomens that glittered with a scarlet red light.

As the name suggested, Corpse Bugs were Corpse Bugs.

The number of Corpse Worms was huge. They swarmed over like a swarm of bees, covering the sky and covering the earth. As the cold wind blew, Zhou Yan felt a chill run down his spine.

"* Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Aooo...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The Corpse Insects let out a low roar, flapped their wings, and rushed towards Zhou Yan to bite him.

"Get lost..." Zhou Yan shouted angrily as he pulled out his sword and killed a few Corpse Worms. However, it was useless as the Corpse Worms were endless and fearless of death.

In just a short moment, dozens of Corpse Worms pounced onto Zhou Yan's body and gnawed on his flesh.
