A few days after returning to the clan, Yun Chuan sets off for the deep Sunset Mountains, the place where the unusual collapse came from before. The news of the tomb of the martial Dhyana’s appearance has been widely spread in the past few days, and many people have already gone there with the hope of getting a piece of it.
Having leaped through the mountains and forests for half a day, Yun Chuan can see faintly that there is a large area of damaged forest ahead; a desolate and dead breath fills the land around.
Yun Chuan moves closer, and finds a big pit with a circumference of nearly three thousand meters with its hole totally dark and immeasurable. A kind of gray and black air rises and extends obliquely downward. Many people have already come around the pit, and there are hundreds of them at a rough count.
In the distance, there are also several huge black pits, and the one surrounded by so many people ahead is only the most peripheral one.
“I didn’t expect that there would be a tomb of the martial Dhyana here, for it’s really a lucky chance hard to be found even in a hundred years! Many martial Dhyanas will seal their whole-life learning and treasures in the tomb when their ends are coming. As long as we can get even one of those treasures, it will be of great benefit to us.”
Yun Chuan follows the voice and finds that the speaker is Zhao Xi followed by Zhao He and Zhao Yu, and they all come from Zhao Clan. Their accomplishments are the best of the younger generation in Zhao Clan, and at such a young age they all have reached the late-stage of Body Cultivation. Therefore, as soon as Zhao Xi’s words come out, many people immediately show their approvals.
“How fine those words are! Zhao Xi, it’s quite easy for you to say that. Why don’t you be the first one to go down? This tomb of martial Dhyanas contains not only great opportunities, but also unimaginable dangers and crises. You are saying that just because you want to let our Gongsun Clan be the brunt of exploration!”
On Zhao Xi’s fair face, two sword-shaped narrow eyebrows hang high above a pair of shining eyes. He looks around disdainfully and sneers: “Short-sighted guys! A few days ago, we failed in the battle with Yun Clan for Water of Icy Spring. If there is no accident, we will be suppressed by them for decades. If we can get enough lucky chances in this tomb, we can not only revitalize our clan, but also rocket to a top position. You gutless cowards dare not go, then I will be the first one!”
Then, his original force starts to surge up and down in his whole body, and his strength in the later-stage of Body Cultivation suddenly bursts out. Like an arrow from the string, his whole person rushes into the pit covered by the gray black air flow. Zhao Yu, Zhao He and others from Zhao Clan all follow closely.
“Maybe there is a lucky chance for me to reach the stage of Martial Core. I’m coming!”
“Nothing venture, nothing gain!”
Seeing that several disciples from Zhao Clan have already entered, the people who are left here are also unwilling to lag behind; they are all afraid that the lucky chance will be robbed by those who have entered first. One by one, they jump into the deep pit. In a moment, hundreds of people become dozens around the pit.
Looking at this scene from a distance, Yun Chuan says to himself: “It seems that this tomb of the martial Dhyana is composed of many deep pits. The interior of the tomb must be very complex and huge. I’m afraid that the deeper the pit is, the more dangerous it will be. The outer pit is the best choice for me now, for I’m not strong enough. Besides, Zhao Clan and Gongsun Clan are paving the path for me ahead, and I guess that Yun Tian and others in our clan have already in the pit.”
Having made up his mind, he doesn’t hesitate anymore and strides forward towards that deep pit.
There is an extremely steep slope in the pit, which can be said to be almost vertical. The gray and black fog fill with the deathly breath, confining people’s visibility in less than ten meters.
“Grrrrr!”
Suddenly, at this time, Yun Chuan’s hair suddenly stands up, and a sense of extreme danger fills his whole body. With Seven Stars Chasing the Sun he suddenly moves out fifteen meters to avoid. Next moment, a giant gray black snake appears in his original position with its abuzz rattling.
The venom of the snake has been sprayed on the ground where he was just now, leaving a sizzling sound of corrosion. The huge black snake misses the attack, but then it attacks Yun Chuan again without a moment’s pause.
“What is it?!”
Yun Chuan slightly frowns. He can feel that the strength of this black and gray snake is not very strong, maybe it is about the strength in the middle-stage of Body Cultivation. But the strange thing is that he can’t feel any breath of vitality in it, and the snake is just like a dead thing. If he didn’t feel the warning sign in time, he would surely suffer a big loss.
“Grand Palm of Thousand Leaves!”
Once again, he dodges the attack of the snake and releases countless palms. In an instant, all of palm shadows hit the snake’s heart heavily. Turning his hands into claws, he strides forward and tears the giant snake into two. The next moment, the snake falls to the ground with no life.
“Wow, it leaves me three hundred points of soul value.”
Yun Chuan’s consciousness immerses into the golden scroll and he finds those points with a surprise. But the next moment when he sees the snake corpse on the ground, his pupils suddenly shrink. After the death of the snake, its body dissipates and turns into original power.
“How pure this kind of original force is! It is comparable to dozens of Primordial Stones.”
Yun Chuan takes a deep breath and inhales all the original force into his body without any waste. Feeling that his accomplishments have been refined a little, he now understands: “If my theory is right, it seems that this kind of monster is transformed by the original power which diffused after the death of the martial Dhyana. It will be a great chance for me to meet more monsters like this one!”
He keeps moving on, and he sees along the way that there are already dead bodies here. It seems that they were killed by the monsters that were transformed by original power, and those bodies are already broken into pieces.
In half a day, he has met four or five such kind of monsters. After the hunting, he gains a total of 2000 points of soul value. Moreover, the original force of these monsters’ bodies also helps his accomplishment to be more refined than before, and he has reached the edge of the late-stage of Body Cultivation.
“Sure enough, nothing venture, nothing gain! If I practice step by step, I’m afraid that with my current martial qualifications of only first-level blood, I can’t reach the late-stage of Body Cultivation in a few years. Now, I’ve saved so much hard work and time!”
After walking for a while again, suddenly there comes a sound ahead. Yun Chuan looks forward and finds that many martial cultivators who have arrived here are standing in front.
A huge coffin now lies across in front of the public. It has been opened, and a kind of deathly black air keeps spreading out. It blocks the two places apart like a canyon, while a tombstone falls on the cracked coffin, forming the only channel to the next place.
On the other side of the fallen tombstone, countless engraved words can be found, fine and dense, which look like a record of a martial skill.
