1431: C1431 Greed

C1431 Greed

Hula ~

A gust of wind blew and it was as if a beast was charging over with killing intent.

This blade was extremely fierce and it was as fast as lightning.

"Hmph, how can the light of a firefly compete with the light of the moon!"

Zhou Yan's eyes flashed with a cold light as he clenched his fists tightly and suddenly punched out towards the blade, wanting to meet this attack head on.

"A mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

Seeing that, the guard sneered with disdain and contempt.

Bang!

With a muffled sound, Zhou Yan's body swayed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

As for the guard, he took three steps back, each step causing the floor to crack.

"What?!"

The guard's pupils contracted as his heart trembled and his expression changed drastically.

His full strength had actually been dispelled by Zhou Yan?!

"How could this be?! He's clearly just a piece of trash, so how did he become so strong?"

The guard's mind was in a complete mess as he could not figure out what was going on.

Furthermore, what made the guard even more terrified was that he could vaguely sense that the power that Zhou Yan had displayed just now had not completely erupted.

This kind of situation was extremely dangerous and was enough to threaten his life!

"No, I have to escape immediately!"

The guard's mind raced as he made his decision. He no longer cared about anything else as he turned around and ran.

"Where do you think you're going?!" Zhou Yan shouted coldly and chased after him.

However, just as Zhou Yan took a step forward, something unexpected happened.

Buzz, buzz, buzz ~

In all directions, the void trembled and the air surged. A boundless pressure descended and firmly locked onto him, causing his entire body to stiffen.

"Hmm? What the hell is this?!" Zhou Yan's expression changed drastically as he was filled with shock and anger.

Raising his head, he saw clusters of black clouds floating past in the distance, filling the air with a sinister aura.

Looking carefully, the area covered by the black clouds was filled with densely packed skeleton soldiers.

"Crack, crack!"

These skeleton soldiers were wearing armor and holding Long Spears. They walked over from all directions with heavy footsteps.

Then, these skeleton soldiers stood in two rows and kneeled down in unison, shouting, "Welcome back, my king!"

Crack! Crack!

The sound of bones rubbing against each other was extremely ear-piercing, causing one's entire body to feel cold.

Each of these skeleton soldiers had the cultivation of the True Martial realm, and if they were placed in the outside world, they would be able to rule over a region.

But now, they were kowtowing to a corpse!

Weird!

Incredibly weird!

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing?!"

Zhou Yan cursed in his heart as sweat dripped down his forehead. He could feel a strong aura of death.

"These skeleton soldiers should all be born from that coffin." The system notification sounded, "That coffin should be a treasure!"

"Treasure?!"

Hearing that, Zhou Yan was stunned and his expression turned ugly.

Originally, Zhou Yan had already recognized the situation and knew how terrifying this corpse was. Thus, he had no way of resisting and chose to obey.

After all, his life was more important!

However, Zhou Yan never expected that the corpse would not be simple. It was protected by a treasure!

"Tsk tsk..."

Suddenly, a cold laughter sounded out, "Tsk tsk... Little guy, you're not bad. You can actually ruin my plan."

Zhou Yan's heart skipped a beat. He raised his head and saw that the corpse was slowly sitting up straight. Its eyes were open, and the corner of its mouth was curved into a sinister smile.

"Since that's the case, I can't let you live!"

The corpse stretched out its withered right hand and made a grabbing motion in the air.

Whoosh...

In an instant, the skeleton soldiers that covered the mountains and plains flew over and gathered together, turning into a huge skeleton palm. Shrouding the Sky, it covered the sun and smashed towards Zhou Yan with a terrifying and monstrous aura.

Bang!

This attack was earth-shattering, and even the air exploded. The momentum was terrifying!

Zhou Yan was so scared that his guts were about to shatter, and his soul was about to leave his body.

"It's over, am I going to die?" Zhou Yan muttered with a pale face.

However, in the next second, something happened that surprised Zhou Yan.

Boom!

When the gigantic skeletal hand was still thirty meters away from Zhou Yan, it was blocked by an unknown force and shattered into pieces, turning into specks of light and dissipating into the air.

At the same time, ripples appeared in the air as a mighty figure appeared. He stood with his hands behind his back and had an imposing appearance like a god.

"Who are you?!"

Seeing this, the skeletal Division Leader's pupils contracted as wariness appeared in its heart.

"I am the Green Lotus Sword Immortal!"

The person's voice was ethereal, as if it had traveled through the past, present, and future.

Clang!

In the next moment, with a clang, a sparkling and resplendent green lotus appeared in the air, emitting endless auspicious light.

"Shu ~ ~ ~ ~"

The corpse spat out a mouthful of blood at the same time, and the expression on its face was dazed. It seemed to be in pain.

"Not good!"

The corpse's expression changed dramatically as it lowered its head as if it was searching for something.

Then, its gaze landed on the underground abyss.

The eye sockets of the corpse burned with green soul flames as it stared at the coffin below with greed and heat.

Boom!

The corpse suddenly moved. It charged out of the cave and into the area where the coffin was.

"Hehe... little guy, we meet again...."

The corpse roared, and the soul flame in its eye sockets flickered as if it had found a delicacy.

The next instant, the corpse extended its palm and pressed down on the coffin.

"Crack! Crack!"

Crisp sounds could be heard as the palm of the corpse seemed to be made of steel. It was incomparably tough and destroyed all the runes and restrictions on the coffin.

"Hahaha...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Seeing this scene, the corpse laughed heartily.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, he jumped into the coffin.

Boom!

A muffled explosion came from within the coffin, and a gray mist covered the coffin and covered everything.

"Gulp!"

Looking at this scene, Zhou Yan swallowed his saliva with difficulty. His face was pale white and sweat was dripping down his forehead.

Since the corpse entered the coffin, could it be that it wanted to possess this corpse?!

If that was the case, wouldn't he be tricked to death?!

"Don't worry, host. The dead body is weird, but it can't do that." The voice of the system sounded again.

Hearing that, Zhou Yan let out a sigh of relief.

"This corpse is too special. It was refined from the Cold Nether Iron and has extremely strong corrosive properties."

The system continued, "However, this corpse is already broken and can't be used. What it's doing right now is just using the corpse poison to attract the nearby ghosts."2

"So that's how it is!"

Hearing these explanations, Zhou Yan finally came to a realization.

Immediately after, Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and revealed a puzzled expression as he asked, "But it took so much effort. Isn't it afraid of killing itself?"

Zhou Yan was very confused. The strength of that corpse could be said to be terrifying. Even those skeleton soldiers possessed the combat strength of an Extraordinary Martial Master.
