Chapter 484: Chapter 482: Entering the Underground Mausoleum

As they continued, the entrance of the cave sloped deeper and deeper. At this moment, Xiao Yifeng felt that they had descended dozens of meters underground. A cold chill assailed their faces, causing an involuntary shiver and an inexplicable fear. However, everyone present was a practitioner of the Martial Path and naturally felt no fear.

After walking for dozens of minutes, they saw a massive stone door. The door emanated an aura of eternal antiquity, clearly an artifact of a long and storied past.

On this stone door there were five grooves. Looking at these grooves, Mo Shuqian stepped forward and placed five green stone discs into them.

Boom!

A loud rumbling echoed as the entire stone door burst forth with a dazzling light, then began to shake violently, moving slowly apart. A frigid and foreboding air rushed over their faces.

"Be careful!"

Xiao Yifeng suddenly shouted, taking a quick step forward. He embraced Mo Shuqian and dodged to the side in a flash.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

...

Row after row of sharp whistling was heard, accompanied by a deluge of black arrows shooting forth from the stone door, each arrowhead flickering with a ghostly blue glow - clearly coated with lethal poison, capable of instantly killing a person.

Hugging Mo Shuqian, Xiao Yifeng leaned against the wall to one side, while Tang Shengyi and five men in black quickly dodged.

Arrows blanketed the area, striking the ground and embedding in the walls; anyone of lesser strength would have been turned into a sieve by now.

Only when the arrows ceased firing did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

"Could you let go of me first?"

At this moment, Mo Shuqian’s voice arose, tinged with embarrassment.

Xiao Yifeng came to his senses and, upon hearing Mo Shuqian’s words, felt awkward.

Because Xiao Yifeng was embracing Mo Shuqian from behind, and whether intentionally or not, his hands were placed upon the peaks of the Saintess, causing her face to flush red.

"Sorry about that..."

He apologized awkwardly and quickly let go of his hands, but not without unconsciously giving a squeeze first,

Very soft, very elastic!

Mo Shuqian nearly cried out from Xiao Yifeng’s squeeze. Her face blushed a deeper red, her expression filled with shyness.

Xiao Yifeng’s face appeared entirely unnatural as he then walked toward the interior of the stone door.

Inside the stone door was a corridor of massive space, stretching out for hundreds of meters, its end hardly visible.

On both sides of the corridor stood rows of stone giants, each holding a huge battleaxe, like guarding warriors.

Looking at these stone giants, Xiao Yifeng had an inexplicable feeling that they seemed alive.

"Be careful, there’s something odd here!"

Xiao Yifeng warned as he walked step by step further inside.

"Hmph!"

At that moment, the man with the golden mask snorted coldly at Xiao Yifeng’s words and walked straight ahead.

But just as the man had entered the corridor by a dozen meters, the stone giants on either side came to life, swinging their great axes in a frenzy, slashing down at the man in black.

Each axe contained a terrifying force, as if it could split the very void.

Immediately, the man’s countenance changed, and he hastened to dodge. However, row after row of stone giants came to life, their axes cutting down in relentless strikes, leaving no chance for the man in black to evade.

"That’s what you get for showing off—got owned!"

Xiao Yifeng watched the scene with a sneer.

Boom!

At that moment, a flash of anger crossed the eyes of the man wearing the gold mask.

A terrifying surge of True Qi burst forth from his body, forming a True Qi Shield that blocked all of the falling axes as he charged forward.

However, immediately afterward, small holes appeared on the walls of the passageway, from which wisps of black smoke began to emerge, quickly filling the corridor.

"Be careful, it’s poison smoke!"

Xiao Yifeng and Tang Shengyi both cried out in unison.

"Take this elixir, it’s a Detoxification Pill that can resist the poison smoke!"

Tang Shengyi took out several black pills and consumed one herself.

"I don’t need it, you have it!"

Xiao Yifeng said to Mo Shuqian, who swallowed one of the pills.

"Miss Tang, could you give me a few more pills?"

Mo Shuqian glanced at the four men in black and then turned her gaze to Tang Shengyi.

Tang Shengyi looked at Xiao Yifeng, who nodded.

Tang Shengyi then took out a few more pills and handed them to Mo Shuqian, who passed them to the four men in black.

"No need!"

With indifferent expressions, the four men declined and charged forward, each of them bursting out a stream of True Qi to block the invasion of the poison smoke.

"Ungrateful fools!"

Tang Shengyi hummed coldly.

"Don’t mind them, they will soon reap the consequences of their actions!"

Xiao Yifeng said with a light chuckle.

The black poison smoke quickly filled the corridor, and both the man with the mask and the four behind him tried to use their True Qi Shields to fend off the invasion of the smoke.

To their dismay, the poison smoke was incredibly potent and managed to penetrate their True Qi, causing their complexions to gradually darken and their breaths to weaken.

"Not good!"

Seeing this, Mo Shuqian rushed forward, dodging the axe swings of the stone giants as she headed toward them.

"Quickly take these pills!"

Mo Shuqian gave the Detoxification Pills provided by Tang Shengyi to the five poisoned individuals, who took them and felt the toxins in their bodies start to diminish.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At that moment, a series of loud booming sounds erupted as the stone giants came to life, swinging their massive axes at Xiao Yifeng and his companions.

"Charge through!"

With a concentrated look, Xiao Yifeng executed the Nine Stars Chasing Moon Technique and dashed forward, avoiding the attacks of the stone giants. Tang Shengyi followed closely behind.

"Let’s go!"

The man with the gold mask, having recovered, shouted fiercely and rushed toward the end of the passageway with Mo Shuqian.

Half a minute later, all eight of Xiao Yifeng’s party reached the end of the passageway, and the stone giants ceased their attacks, returning to their original positions.

This hundred-meter-long corridor with nearly a hundred stone giants, brandishing their axes, would likely be impassable for an ordinary strong one from the Gang Qi Realm.

Xiao Yifeng managed to get through the corridor by relying on the Nine Stars Chasing Moon Technique, along with his formidable strength, while Mo Shuqian was taken through by the man in the gold mask.

The rest naturally got through by the strong True Qi Shield of the Qi Condensation Realm, but without Tang Shengyi’s Detoxification Pills, they likely wouldn’t have made it either.
