Chapter 955: Chapter 975: Sea of the Dead Souls_1

Void Profound Experts closely followed the four Guardians, not letting go of their pursuit.

This battle had taken them completely by surprise.

In their estimation, with so many Great Circle of Void Profound Experts and so many powerful Spiritual Treasures to assist them, they should succeed even if their opponents were made of iron.

However, the outcome of the battle shocked all of them.

With dozens against four, they still lost three of their own and suffered nearly twenty injuries, many of which were severe. Some would likely suffer a significant loss of strength even if they survived.

Not a single one of the four opponents was killed!

Even more significant, they had lost countless magical treasures in this battle, and even some spiritual treasures were shattered!

West Xuan Mountain Cave Heaven’s Thirteen Array Flag Treasure of Sealing the Cave, East Spring Sect’s Battle Dragon Drum...

Having three powerful experts die did not significantly affect their overall strength. But if they had lost so many potent Spiritual Treasures and magical artifacts only to severely wound the four of them, how would they withstand the Guardian’s defense if they healed?

Who knew if they had any quick ways to heal? The best approach was to press forward in one breath and not give them any chance to breathe.

The Void Profound Experts in the front pressed hard, and so did the team in the back.

Lin Chen followed the team, neither in a rush nor slow.

Although he was only in the Nascent Soul Realm, his speed was swift enough to keep up with the Void Profound Experts ahead, but he didn’t hurry.

Let them handle the front lines.

He was content just to watch the lively scene.

With this pursuit, they went straight through till dawn, and everyone had entered the core area of the Valley of Death.

Lin Chen once again saw the Connecting Heaven Formation White Jade Platform split in half, but everyone just briefly stopped before heading deeper.

A broken Array Formation was obviously not the Guardian’s target.

After advancing several dozen kilometers, everyone suddenly stopped and looked ahead with horror in their eyes.

In front of them was a huge hill, unusually shaped, unlike other mountain peaks that soared straight into the sky. It was like a plump bun.

A blood-red bun.

On this bun-shaped hill, undead creatures crawled all over the place like ants. Their bones were a strange red color, and hollow eyes gleamed with two groups of blood-red ghost fire, like pulsating souls.

When the team of Cultivators appeared, all the skeleton-like figures ceased crawling, turning their heads to stare at them all dead-on.

Countless cold gazes made everyone’s skin crawl.

There were too many of them!

This was practically a sea of the undead!

"Mom, what is this? How can these skeletons still be alive?"

"It’s said that this place was soaked with an Immortal’s blood, creating a strange magic that transformed all the Demonic Beasts, turning them mad and bloodthirsty. All the corpses underground crawled up and regained life..."

"This is just too scary!"

"These undead creatures are all over the hill. Could the secret of the Valley of Death be hidden inside this mountain?"

"It should be. The four Guardians just escaped into the belly of the mountain through a cave on the mountain..."

"A cave? There are so many caves on this mountain; which one can we enter?"

"Bullshit! There are indeed many caves, but each is filled with countless undead being. To get in, we’d have to kill our way in..."

"Just a bunch of rotten bones. A single punch could scatter dozens of them, right?"

"I’m afraid it’s not that simple. If so, wouldn’t the eerie undead all over the mountains be just decorations?"

"Where are the big shots? What are they planning to do?"

Lin Chen stood among the crowd and glanced at the Void Profound Experts in front.

They didn’t know what was inside the cave, so even if they tracked the Guardians here, they didn’t dare to rush in. Instead, they gathered to discuss their strategies.

"No matter how much discussing they do, they’ll eventually have to go in."

Lin Chen muttered in his heart, having come all this way with heavy casualties. It was impossible for them to give up halfway.

The abandoned Array Formation Platform was right there, unguarded, and the four Guardians had retreated into the blood-red hill after being injured. And the numerous undead crawling all over the hill showed that the true secret of the Valley of Death must be hidden inside the mountain.

If you enter the Treasure Mountain, how can you leave empty-handed?

With the four Guardians severely injured, they couldn’t afford to give up now.

As expected, after a brief discussion, they made a decision.

"Enter the mountain!"

The injured Void Profound Experts were left behind as the others regrouped and charged towards the densely packed sea of undead.

The undead swarmed them like waves of blood.

"Clang!"

A leading expert brought out a golden bell, which emitted a golden radiance, covering everyone. With a loud crash, a golden circle of light radiated out instantaneously.

Where the light reached, the undead were sent flying, toppling like waves.

Lin Chen took a closer look and shrank his pupils.

Under such a powerful impact, the blood-colored undead were indeed toppled instantaneously. But they were not breaking apart as he had imagined!

They were actually unharmed!
