Chapter 1809: Chapter 1541: 5 Beasts Unite as 1, Boss Appears (2-in-1)

"This damn thing, of all places, why attach itself to the shard? This is trouble. I can’t just throw it away, can I?"

Holding the shard, Su Ran was in a dilemma. He knew very well that if the coffin wasn’t opened, it would definitely thwart the system’s plot, and the storyline could not progress smoothly. This was a perfect opportunity to go against the system!

But.

Faced with this mysterious coffin, it was like a beauty lying in bed. Which normal man could resist?

At least, I really can’t resist!

If I don’t open the coffin and take a look, my strong curiosity will kill me...

What if it’s an opportunity? Wouldn’t I miss it if I don’t open it?

Su Ran knew the chances were almost zero, but he couldn’t help thinking like this. It’s just like buying a lottery ticket. Knowing that the odds of winning were ridiculously low, he still threw money into the hole like a moth to the flame, all for the sake of that million-dollar hype...

This is the greedy nature of humans, which even Su Ran couldn’t escape from.

"Damn it, I’m going for it!"

Emboldened by the presence of the Darknight Thunder Dragon and the Eternal Poisonous Jiao, Su Ran felt that even if a BOSS emerged from the coffin, he would have a fighting chance. At worst, he could escape with the little zombie. Most importantly, he wouldn’t have any regrets.

So, he decided to take action. Su Ran left the cave and returned to the pit since there was more space to maneuver, providing him with an escape route.

At the pit’s center, Su Ran cautiously moved to one side, directing his thunderbat clone to carry the shard and fly towards the coffin.

He had no other choice. This was the honorable mission of a mine-clearance scout, driven by the thought of "If I don’t go to hell, who will?" He flew to the coffin sorrowfully and inserted the shard into the socket.

"Click."

The condition to unlock the coffin was met, and with a crisp sound, the coffin lid flew off. Black mist began to spread, obscuring Su Ran’s view of what was inside. An ominous feeling crept over him, and he felt that something big was about to happen.

"Do it!"

Su Ran wouldn’t let the situation develop any further without intervention. He commanded magic skeletons to form a circle and attack the coffin from all angles. Even the Iron-blood Sand Puppet went over to deal with the impending threat.

As for Wang Cai, the little zombie, and the Eternal Poisonous Jiao, he kept them close, considering them precious treasures that couldn’t be easily lost.

As for the Darknight Thunder Dragon and the Mechanism Divine Pig, they were a different story. Su Ran couldn’t command them at all; one was proud, the other lazy, utterly unreliable unless it was a dire moment.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Dozens of attacks crashed into the black mist one after another, explosions echoing continuously. To Su Ran’s surprise, the sounds were incredibly dull, as if swallowed by the mist, with none of the expected impact.

Even the Iron-blood Sand Puppet didn’t fare well, wrapped by the black smoke, its movements severely hampered, like an old ox pulling a broken cart, looking very awkward.

Clearly, smoke wasn’t something good; avoiding smoke is beneficial for health.

However.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze; all pets, including Su Ran, became motionless. Their minds went blank, awareness completely lost.

It seemed like both an instant and a long time had passed when Su Ran regained consciousness. He was astonished to find that the coffin had vanished, leaving only a large mass of smoke hovering in the air, constantly changing shapes.

"Where’s the coffin?"

Su Ran was dumbfounded. How did the coffin disappear in the blink of an eye?

This can’t be real, can it?

He hadn’t realized yet that he had been tricked and was criticizing the plot for being too flimsy. Even if the coffin had exploded, he could have accepted it, but disappearing into thin air seemed excessive and showed no respect for the Black Stone Beast Coffin!

In fact, Su Ran had intended to keep the coffin. He hadn’t acquired a good coffin in a long time, and this one clearly wasn’t trash, possessing high collection value and likely special attributes. If it had the ability to evolve pets, it would be amazing.

Unfortunately, the plan couldn’t keep up with changes. In the blink of an eye, the coffin vanished, leaving him with no opportunity. It was infuriating!

"Kill them all!"

Frustrated and unwilling, Su Ran vented his anger at the black mist in the air, activating the Thousand-Mile Ice Seal skill. Under the effect of ignoring defense, it should inflict some damage on this thing!

Admittedly, the Thousand-Mile Ice Seal skill was extremely gratifying. Wherever the gaze passed, everything was covered in ice crystals. Even the hovering black mist couldn’t escape, becoming wrapped inside.

Soon after, the sound of shattering ice crystals rang delightfully. Translucent ice flowers blossomed around the black mist, here one moment, gone the next.

The pets, not to be outdone, exerted their full strength, launching a total attack on the black mist, nearly reducing it to nothing. At this critical moment, the black mist suddenly contracted into a sphere, dashed to the top barrier, and absorbed all the starlight, plunging the entire space into darkness.

"Not good!"

Seeing this scene, Su Ran finally realized that the so-called three Heavenly Beasts and three Earthly Beasts were all prepared for this black mist!

Could it be...

Had he guessed correctly? Were these beasts’ existence merely for sacrifice?
