Chapter 148: Chapter 113 Final Boss? _2

The heavy stone gate eerily opened from the originally immaculate palace wall without any cracks.

The thickness of this palace wall had been tested by the likes of Gong Jiu and others on scene, damn thick!

Hand grenades definitely wouldn’t blast it open, and if you really used some high-efficiency explosives, you might as well collapse the entire palace.

Nobody would be that stupid!

So, when it comes to ancient tombs, modern technology isn’t necessarily omnipotent, at least not now.

With a loud clang, the gate was pulled open, revealing pitch darkness inside.

Dark and pressing, like a massive cavity, cold wind whistled out, assaulting the senses with a chilling breath.

It smelled damp, like moss.

The feeling wasn’t good for everyone present.

Gong Jiu’s waist-mounted flashlight had been soaked several times already, and now, after multiple presses, it failed to shine.

"Damn it, they told me it was waterproof, this is just shoddy goods!" Brother Ma cursed.

The Flower Demon and others easily picked up their petite flashlights.

Proudly showcasing them for a bit, they then shone them inside...

It was a very ancient yet massive guardian tomb; what caught their eyes first were rows of sandstone figures, as if made of sand.

Neatly arranged, leaving only a pathway in the middle, the strong penetration of the flashlight couldn’t reach the bottom.

But Sui Yi and others were certain, their destination was right at the end of this path.

"So many stone figures..."

"All stone figures, thankfully, thankfully, I thought there would be lots of coffins."

"Dead people and such are the most ominous."

It seemed, this place being a cemetery, what should be most common here was the dead, as for these stone figures.

Sui Yi always had a palpitation, and so did Gong Jiu and the others, each of them tense as Gong Jiu quietly raised his gun...

Should they go in?

"Why haven’t we gone in yet?"

Someone asked gloomily from behind.

"Damn, we need to first check if there’s any danger inside... Hey, who the hell has stinking breath?" Han Gao, with a skewed eye and a twisted mouth, displeased, pinched his nose while glancing back.

"Ahhh!!!!!"

A scream like that of a slaughtering pig caused the likes of Gong Jiu, who were still surveying the entrance, nearly to lose their souls, and the sense of danger suddenly erupted, swiftly turning heads, whether gun or sword, all were directed towards the back!

That instant, those standing on the Blue Stone Slab next to the Canal saw in the water, just two or three meters behind them, densely packed "people," all dripping wet standing in the water, as if unaffected by gravity, and that horrifying sight hit everyone’s eyes, yet none was more dreadful than the eight oily green grotesque creatures that sprawled on all fours across from them.

No match for the sight of these eight grotesque creatures surrounding a tall man.

Gray long robe, like ancient people, even more terrifying was that his face wore a sinister demon mask.

Just staring ominously at their group.

He seemed like a demon commanding the eight monsters, come from Hell, bound to prey on the living!

"Since you’ve all come here, no matter what you’ve seen, you would enter, wouldn’t you? Just like how you will all ultimately remain here...."

The voice was low and rough, as if burned vocal cords, coarse, grating chillingly on the heart.

And he, was indeed the one who had just asked the question.

Of course, he was also the one secretly controlling everything.

These "people"

These monsters, all under his control.

"In such a sacred Divine Temple, your enslavement of so many creatures of evil should certainly not make you a Guardian, much less a Dharma King," said Sui Yi lightly.

Apparently, she was just making conversation.

The masked man seemed fixated on Sui Yi, precisely, on the Xiezhi Dagger in her hand.

The voice grew colder.

"Creatures of evil? These people are precisely transformed from you treasure-hunting and unrighteous folk. Is there anything more evil in this world than greed and desire? How can you know what hides beneath your own human skin, not a blood-drenched face of sin?"

Say, whose human skin beneath is not a blood-drenched face? But just as he said, it ultimately hit right on the innate sinfulness of humanity.

Greed and desire, the evil roots of humans.

Everyone has such a face of sin, and by entering the Ye family’s Ancient Tomb, they had been listed on the death register by him.

--------

The scene was too eerie, too sinister, his intent to kill too chilling.

Han Gao felt as if a cold breeze had blown over all his limbs, while Gong Jiu had already shot at him!

The Canal wasn’t more than a few meters wide, how fast can a bullet go?

Bang!

One of the crouching monsters suddenly sprung from the ground!

Swish!

The bullet... swatted against the wall by its hand!

"Run!"

Too terrifying!

They must flee!

Gong Jiu and Sui Yi rushed into the gate, as soon as they entered, they turned around, the bullets fiercely shooting!

Bang bang bang, the bullets fiercely flew through mid-air, blocking the monster from slaughtering Han Gao and the others at the back, and at this moment, the "people" in the water also screeched and climbed up!

The other seven monsters got into action!

Slaughter, has arrived!

--------

After a sharp and brief battle.

Bang!

Gong Jiu kicked a monster trying to rush in flying, Sui Yi and others forcefully closed the door, fully thrusting themselves into this oppressively dark world.

Of course, they had lights.

With a light shining,

the space lit up dimly.

The faces of those stone figures looked vivid, under the effect of the light, they seemed like demons from Hell.

A pair of huge bell-like eyes stared right at you... their hands wielding long knives, swords, bows, as if they were alive, ready to strike in the next second...

Lin Feng and other faint-hearted individuals felt their arms going numb... (To be continued. If you like this story, you are welcome to recommend it on qidian.com, and support by voting for monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
