Chapter 1390 - Chapter 1390 Chapter 1253 Walking with Death Corpse Type

Chapter 1390: Chapter 1253: Walking with Death, Corpse Type Grave Mound Chapter 1390: Chapter 1253: Walking with Death, Corpse Type Grave Mound The crack was long, and after traveling some distance, an open space appeared ahead.

Chu Mu estimated that they had walked about ten kilometers inside the cliff. If it were not for the crack, this ten-kilometer thickness of rock would be impossible for even Dominator-level creatures to break through.

Upon entering the rock cliff, Chu Mu felt that he was getting closer and closer to Li Ye.

The terrain of the open area started to rise upward, and the purple flame light from Mo Ye illuminated the cold stone walls around them, so silent that only the footsteps of everyone could be heard.

“It feels like there’s nothing here,” the Morning Crown Prince said, feeling it was too quiet.

“Let’s communicate with Mental Sound,” Xia Zhixian suggested, her sense of vigilance being relatively strong.

This was the inside of the cliff, and if there were creatures with keen hearing present, they could hear their voices from hundreds of kilometers away.

Chu Mu didn’t believe that this place was completely safe because, in the areas illuminated by Mo Ye’s flames, some skeletal remains appeared, and these remains were definitely not of a low rank before death.

The terrain gradually sloped upward, seemingly forming a detour strategy, and this process was also slowly nearing Li Ye’s location.

“There seems to be something above,” Sang Ying said through Mental Sound.

After traversing the lengthy upward winding terrain, the space above them became very spacious, as if they had entered an underground hall.

After entering this underground area, Chu Mu felt that describing this underground hall as a grave mound was more apt because the entire spacious space was filled with countless skeletal corpses.

The purple flame light from Mo Ye spread over, filling the entire grave mound with a purple glow.

The grave mound was large, about five kilometers in diameter, making humans seem very insignificant within it.

There are many creatures of enormous size in the Soul Pet Field, so it was not surprising to see a grave mound of five kilometers.

However, what puzzled Chu Mu was why the degrees of decay on the bodies on the ground varied so much. Some were weathered skeletons, while others had only just recently decayed…

“Eh, there are actually inscriptions here,” Princess Jinrou floated to the central stone block that resembled a tombstone.

Around the central stone block was a circular trench, and some black liquid flowed through this trench, its nature unknown.

Princess Jinrou was quite familiar with various ancient scripts, and as she read intently, she also translated the content aloud.

“Those who enter here, walk alongside death!”

The Morning Crown Prince came over, puzzled, and said, “Walk alongside death? The tone sounds like some kind of witch or charlatan.”

“I’m saying it in our language,” Princess Jinrou said.

“You two stop talking for now,” Chu Mu said to them.

Princess Jinrou, curious to ask, suddenly heard something due to her keen senses,

The words hung unspoken on her lips as Princess Jinrou looked around.

“Creak~~~ Creak~~~~”

“Thump~~~~ Thump~~~~~~~~~”

“Clang~~~~~~~~”

Some strange, faint noises emerged from the silent grave mound!

With the help of the light from Mo Ye, Princess Jinrou suddenly realized that the limbs, skeletons, and corpses on the stone ground were actually moving!

The faces of Princess Jinrou and the Morning Crown Prince immediately looked odd, and they cautiously jumped out from the stone area.

There were also a few corpses where they had passed, and these bodies were moving too, with the joints of the severed limbs emitting a “Creak Creak” reversing sound.

The Morning Crown Prince jumped over the pile of moving bones and stood next to Chu Mu, while Princess Jinrou hid behind Chu Mu, panic showing in her lively eyes.

Chu Mu glanced at Princess Jinrou behind him and joked, “You’re also an undead, what are you afraid of?”

Princess Jinrou glared at Chu Mu coquettishly, annoyed by his way of speaking.

“The correct translation of that sentence should be ‘Combat the Undead’,” Chu Mu said, surveying the slowly assembling corpses around them.

Clearly, those moving remains were Corpse Clan Creatures, guarding this grave mound, forbidding other creatures from passing through.

Corpse Clan was always known for being disgusting and fierce, rarely dwelling in some special environments. The strongest Corpse Clan creature Chu Mu had ever encountered was probably the Swamp Fish Demon in Guangtong Swamp.

“Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding~~~~~~~~~~”

As the sounds of bones colliding with the ground echoed, about three thousand meters away from Chu Mu and the others, a huge pile of scattered skeletons began to gather in one direction, from feet to lower body to abdomen, then chest and skull, slowly and staggeringly, those bones formed a staggering bone giant dragon.

The bone dragon swayed, clearly missing some important parts of its skeleton; even so, it looked difficult to deal with.

“There is a passage over there, we shouldn’t linger here too long,” Xia Zhixian said, pointing behind the bone dragon.

As soon as the bone dragon appeared, more and more Corpse Clan creatures emerged around Chu Mu and the others, all swaying their bodies, their hollow eyes staring at the group of living beings.

Corpse Clan creatures naturally harbored a hunger for life, especially those with incomplete bodies; only by consuming living beings could they fill the voids within themselves.

From oblivious to ferocious and greedy, thousands of Corpse Clan creatures had gathered around Chu Mu and the team. These creatures were once Dominator-level creatures when they died, so even the weakest were of Emperor Level, and the one guarding the passage, the bone dragon, had reached the High Master Level.

“Mo Ye, lead the way,” Chu Mu instructed Mo Ye.

Furious Purple Flames surged around Mo Ye, and its commanding, powerful body stretched out at that moment.

Purple hooves stepped out of the flames, the surrounding Corpse Clan creatures hadn’t even cast a skill before Mo Ye’s formidable aura crushed them to the ground, turning them back into scattered remains.

“Woooo~~~~~~~~”

Suddenly, with a sweep of its nine tails, the hundreds of skeletal remains a thousand meters ahead were swept away, and moments later like a torrential rain, shattered bones scattered across the ground.

“Chu Mu, your Nine-Tailed Fox Sovereign is incredibly fierce,” Sang Ying commented, looking at the scattered bones with envy.

Those skeletal remains were all of Emperor Level, no less formidable than the naval team they had encountered before. Yet, Chu Mu’s Fox Sovereign didn’t even need to use its skills; a sweep of its tail was enough to annihilate hundreds. If Chu Mu had summoned it in their earlier battle against the navy, those sailors probably wouldn’t have had the chance to defend themselves.

Morning Crown Prince and Xia Zhixian also noticed that Mo Ye seemed to have grown stronger.

“Squeak squeak squeak~~~~~~~~~~~~”

While they were speaking, those crushed bones made sounds again, trembling as they gathered in a certain direction, and quickly reformed into a complete corpse.

“These things, once killed, gather back together; it’s endless. Let’s not waste too much time here,” Chu Mu said.

Mo Ye led the way, sweeping even the Dominator-level Corpse Clan creatures with its tail, and they couldn’t get up for a short while.

A large pile of bones fell to the ground, and the five of them walked over the corpses, quickly reaching the bone dragon.

The bone dragon was a kilometer tall, its high skull almost disappearing into the darkness above, and when it looked down, those fearsome, blood-red eyes were visible.

When the bone dragon saw Mo Ye approaching, its gaze became even more brutal. It raised its bone claws high and viciously slammed them down at Mo Ye.

Mo Ye dodged the attack with a quick flick of its body.

The bone dragon, probably a High Master Level in strength, was cumbersome like any Corpse Clan creature. Even a speedier High Master Level Demon Spirit probably couldn’t touch a single hair on Mo Ye.

Mo Ye slid into multiple afterimages, the bone dragon couldn’t hit Mo Ye no matter how it attacked, and Mo Ye’s tail had already unknowingly entwined around the bone dragon’s body.

“Wooo!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Mo Ye emitted a long cry as the power in its tail erupted instantly!

The nine tails tightened, completely deforming the bone dragon’s body under this immense power!

With a flick of its tail, Mo Ye slammed the gigantic bone dragon against the stone wall, the distorted body explosively collapsing into a mountain of bones.

“This… this is at least a High Master Level Corpse Clan creature!” Sang Ying exclaimed, surprised at how easily Mo Ye had eliminated the bone dragon.

“Corpse Clan creatures are annoying because they can continuously reshape their bodies; that bone dragon isn’t dead,” the Fox Elder said.

Indeed, the pile of bones once again shivered, the bones piecing together, about to start reshaping the body!

“Let’s go,” Chu Mu had no interest in entangling with these Corpse Clan creatures, leading Mo Ye and the others into the passage.

Shortly after entering the passage, the bone dragon completed its reconstruction, its angry head squeezing into the passage, its blood-red eyes staring at Chu Mu and the others as they walked farther away, its claws furiously scratching at the stone wall…

Morning Crown Prince looked back at the resentful bone dragon and said, “Although a bit troublesome, it wasn’t too hard to get through.”

“It’s not that simple, that was just the first obstacle. A Demon Spirit Dominator unable to surpass that first obstacle will join those corpses, becoming a guardian of the second Demon Tomb,” Chu Mu said.

“Yeah, there are definitely stronger creatures ahead,” Xia Zhixian said.

…

“How is it?” Princess Jinrou softly asked Chu Mu.

“We’re close, but I feel something is off,” Chu Mu said, frowning.

“What’s off?” Princess Jinrou asked.

“Soul contract–my Seventh Soul Contract was clearly severed, but it feels like…” Chu Mu paused, unable to describe the feeling, and after thinking carefully, he finally said, “It’s like the lotus root is broken, but fibers still connect it.”
