Devour

Chapter 356: Tomb of the Dead

Who is this force that is more powerful than the Massacre Society?

Before the white-haired and scarred man could explain, a thunderous roar suddenly came from outside the house.

"Tu He, you must be deceiving me!" As the red smoke condensed, Di Xuan's huge body emerged, and he looked down at the cottage at the foot of the mountain with his huge red eyes wide open from a distance.

The white-haired man in the room stood up, raised his head and responded in a loud voice: "Sun Chaser, what are you talking about? All the elders of the Tumin Society are under your command. Aren't you satisfied?"

Di Xuan's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his face was gloomy as he said, "Things are not going well. I have been thinking about it over and over again and I always feel that there must be something fishy. Where did Nie Ziqiong and Min Wushuang go? Unless they are dead, with my cultivation level, how could they not find a single person after entering Tianning Village?"

Facing the question, Tu He said calmly: "I have been in seclusion for many years and have never left the house. I know nothing about anecdotes and trivia. The Lord God is very powerful. Is it possible that someone could hide from your discerning eyes?"

Di Xuan lowered his head and remained silent, Tu He also kept silent. The tense atmosphere inside and outside the house gradually turned into a solemn and depressing one.

Di Xuan was the first to break the silence and asked, "What is the origin of the mountains behind this house? I was frightened when I saw them. And you refused to move even a step, which is really strange."

Tu He said casually, "This mountain is the important place where our ancestors have been living for generations. How can we let it be abandoned and unattended? As the oldest person in the village, it is only natural for me to shoulder the responsibility of guarding the mountain. If the spirit is interested, you may go up the mountain to inspect it. I believe that there will be no one hiding."

Di Xuan stared with his eyes wide open, staring at the towering mountain that looked like five fingers.

To ordinary people, this place was nothing special except that it was desolate and dangerous. However, in the eyes of cultivators, it was filled with inexplicable ferocity, so much so that even the dignified Sun-Chasing God did not dare to get too close to the small house at the foot of the mountain.

Di Xuan looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "It is rare to see such a treacherous area with hidden evil intentions in the world. There must be a big problem in the mountain. I am afraid that only the God King can come in person to solve the crux of the problem."

He didn't want to stand there and waste time, so he turned around and turned into a ball of red smoke and floated away.

Tu He observed every move outside and thought that the situation had calmed down, so he breathed a sigh of relief and sat cross-legged again in silence.

Suddenly, red smoke covered the sky like a surging tide and rushed straight towards Wucan Mountain, overwhelming it with the force of a mountain crushing an egg.

Tu He was so frightened that he almost jumped up, but he finally forced himself to suppress the impulse, but his face turned pale with horror.

However, after just a few breaths, the red smoke that was so aggressive just now retreated at an even faster speed and dissipated without a trace, as if it had never appeared in the world.

"He has no right to rush in and won't try again." Tu He's heart finally settled down.

……

At the same time, Cheng Bai seemed to be resting with his eyes closed in the Black Blade Flying Armor, but in fact he released the Phoenix Force to spy on the surroundings. He slowly opened his eyes and said, "The northwest of the plain below is where I fought with Min Wushuang last time."

Qian Buduo was overlooking the vast wilderness from the observation tower and whispered, "We are now deep in the Woogu Plain. Although it is nominally within the territory of Ciyin State, it is actually a no-man's land. Does the name sound like an ancient battlefield? But looking back at history, there has never been any record of the war."

Kua E-yang was not impressed by this statement and chuckled, "When there are many human settlements in adjacent areas, there will inevitably be conflicts and fights. It is normal for wars to occur. It would be very strange if there were none at all!"

Cheng Bai frowned slightly, stood up from the tea table and approached the observation deck, wondering, "There are a large number of dragon uncles nearby, but their behavior is contrary to common sense."

Bei Tingjun followed beside them and echoed, "I noticed it too. They are busy running for their lives."

Cheng Bai immediately ordered the weapon spirit Xin Nong: "Slow down at low altitude, disguise your form, and get closer to take a look."

The Black Blade Flying Armor quickly transformed into the appearance of a gray-white cloud, silently passing through the air and approaching the ground, presenting a horrifying scene before one's eyes.

Hundreds of Longbo giants rushed eastward in a disorderly manner like frightened wild beasts, trampling the ground and causing rumbling sounds. Wherever they went, trees were knocked down and broken, rocks were shattered and splashed, and the whole place was in a mess.

However, the culprit that caused the fear and commotion did not come from them, but from another huge monster on the ground.

From a distance, it looks like a strange, fat mountain of flesh, about 600 meters long, with the protruding part as high as 180 meters. It is covered with wriggling thorns and crawls slowly on the ground.

When they got closer and carefully discerned the true face, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

This creepy creature was not covered in hair, but had arms and legs of varying lengths and thicknesses. Between the countless limbs were densely packed ugly faces of varying sizes and shapes, some resembling humans, and some resembling monsters.

It swung one of its thick arms vigorously, which was as long as a giant python and as skillful as a whip, and hit a fleeing Longbo giant.

"Wow..." The unfortunate fellow let out a shrill cry, and struggled desperately with his hands and feet flying around, but still unable to escape. He was instantly entangled and bound by the snake arms of the fat giant, and easily pulled into the bloated mountain of meat and swallowed up.

Following a horrible sound of bones and flesh breaking, two pairs of twisted and deformed hands and feet appeared on the fat and hideous mountain of flesh, as well as a new face filled with pain and despair.

Ningxiang, who was standing on the observation deck, saw the whole tragic scene. Her hair stood on end. She shouted angrily, "What an ugly monster! Where did you come from to scare people?"

Cheng Bai hurriedly summoned the inheritance cube, took it in his hand and asked: "What is the origin of that thing? It doesn't look like a natural creature."

Li Tong took a closer look and blurted out, "It is a death giant created by the 'Death Tomb' technique."

Cheng Bai recalled the corpse slaves and corpse puppets that were controlled by the Black Hand secret technique around the Yaoguang Altar, and thought to himself: "It should be the product of the same type of spell but with different effects. The corpse monsters in the Death Boat Secret Realm are similar. It seems that the master behind this guy is Di Xuan."

Li Tong observed the situation and calculated, "The Tomb of the Dead is a top-level secret technique. Flesh and blood corpses can be used as a medium to transform into growth materials. Currently, it has integrated more than 10 million humans, monsters, and hundreds of dragons. It is far from the limit of absorbing life forms."

Qian Buduo got goosebumps when he heard the horrifying number. He couldn't help but tremble and said, "One...more than ten million! How many people are left in Tianning Village?"

Cheng Bai pondered and said, "This guy lingers outside the village and poses a serious threat to ecological security. No wonder Tu Min is so cautious about Di Xuan and obeys his orders."

Minjin spoke more bluntly: "It's not just a threat, I'm afraid the villagers have already been absorbed!"

Ningxiang thought further ahead and said sternly, "This place is about a thousand miles away from Adu City. If we let this monster go there to devour our flesh and blood, the consequences will be disastrous!"

While everyone was talking, the death giant trembled and stretched out four extra-long limbs from his body. The limbs were strangely shaped between his hands and feet. He swayed and supported the entire mountain of flesh, moving step by step towards the east.

At first glance, the Death Giant's movements seemed to be as slow as a spider's, but in fact, it could cover two to three hundred meters in one step. Compared to its massive body that weighed more than 3.8 million tons, its pillar-like limbs were too slender, so when it moved its lower body, it scraped a wide gully on the ground!

A cold light flashed in Jinlian's beautiful eyes as she murmured, "We really have to go to Adu City! I want to kill this beast and never let it escape and endanger the world."

As her divine mind summoned, a long sword appeared out of thin air in her jade-white palm, emitting a silver-white halo.

The temperature inside the bridge suddenly dropped, and a chilly coldness like a severe winter hit.

Qian Buduo was very knowledgeable and exclaimed in a low voice: "The Cangxian Sword! It is a divine weapon ranked 15th on the Tianbao List, and is a top-quality soul weapon made from a whole piece of Taiyin Stone."

Minjin felt uncomfortable with the sudden drop in temperature. She twisted her slender neck, releasing a strong aura that made the surrounding temperature rise steadily. She snorted and said, "How about I go and burn the inferior species down there into ashes?"

Jinlian felt the sudden heat and looked at Wenjin in surprise, wondering in her heart, "Why does this person seem like a thorn in the side?"

Cheng Baiji hung the Golden Pagoda high above his head, concealing the Taotie vision and secretly absorbing the excess cold and hot power in the flying armor. He calmly advised: "Don't worry. Someone came to trouble it first. Let's see if it's an enemy or a friend."
