Chapter 2536: Chapter 2510: Overwhelming Tian Sha Formation (Four Updates)
They call it an ancient tomb, but it is actually a burial site. Along the way, they passed two or three huge halls where they saw a hundred or so coffins, most of them belonging to accompanying burials, and yet the main burial chamber had not been entered.
Though they were accompanying burials, there was still an extremely strong aura flowing within the tombstones!
Could this be the strength of the Ye family?
Why did the old man outside only guard the tomb instead of avenging the Ye family?
Could the existence that wiped out the Ye family be even more powerful?
Heavenly Dao Palace or something else?
Ye Chen’s doubts were mounting.
Creak, creak, creak~~
Sizzle~~
A wooden door was pushed open.
Ye Chen entered a hall that was a thousand square meters in size, only to see a sight of a hundred coffins in an enigmatic expanse, each coffin protected by an array formation. A hundred formations linked together, blocking his path!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Inside the burial chamber, there was a succession of gentle breezes, suggesting there must be ventilation holes nearby, but the breeze was blood-red in color.
Over a hundred formations, each protecting a coffin, every blood-red formation resembled an upside-down bowl, extremely mysterious, covered in intersecting red lines, with a pervasive aura of destruction emanating from them.
“Each formation!”
“Has the power capable of killing those in the Great Void realm or even the Disaster Slaying realm!”
“A hundred layered formations linked together is almost equivalent to a giant killing formation, stir one part and the whole is affected!”
Ye Chen scrutinized the formation before him, his brows slightly furrowing. The killing formation in front of him, although he could break it, the location he was in did not even reach the main burial chambers, left or right; he had only reached the Sacrificial Chamber, and such a killing formation already existed!
If he were to reach the main burial chamber, might there be killing formations capable of annihilating those in the Disaster Slaying Realm and the Chaos Realm?
Ordinary members of the Ye family, even if they could enter, would perhaps be unable to persist in breaking formations without the level of cultivation of the Disaster Slaying realm!
Ye Chen paused for a long while, took a deep breath, and with the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword in hand, suddenly thrust out. The sword tip burst forth with thousands of blood-red sword qi, converging into a blood-colored tsunami, directly submerging dozens of killing formations, the sword qi of the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword fighting fiercely against the killing formations.
Boom boom boom~~
Sizzle sizzle sizzle~~
Crack~~
The sounds of collision echoed throughout.
The sword qi of the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword continued to eradicate the killing formations, but the remaining eighty or so, each and every formation, began to glow with a red luster, boldly firing off and directly smashing through the blood-colored sword qi tsunami in front of them, simultaneously forcing Ye Chen back by dozens of steps.
“No good!”
“These killing formations, not only do they have immense offensive power, their defensive power is even stronger!”
Ye Chen’s expression flickered, observing the situation within the formations carefully, suddenly feeling a familiar energy, he muttered to himself, “This aura, why does it feel like I’ve sensed it on Little Gold as well?”
“Little Gold!”
“Come out, take a look at these killing formations!”
Whoosh~~
A streak of red light flew out from the Samsara Graveyard.
The giant egg landed next to Ye Chen, who couldn’t help but express his joy, saying, “Boss, were these formations prepared especially for me?”
“What do you mean?”
“You can devour these killing formations too?”
Ye Chen was somewhat astonished; while he had considered that Little Gold could devour array formations, could it even devour such powerful ones?
That seemed to go against the natural order.
The Little Gold Giant Egg shook and cheerfully said: “These formations are of the same origin as me; for others, these killing formations pose a lethal threat, but for me, they are great tonics!”
“How wonderful!”
“Go and devour these killing formations quickly!”
Filled with joy, Ye Chen directly sent Little Gold into action.
Little Gold slightly swelled in size, the patterns on the giant egg spreading out as it stepped into the midst of the killing formation. The aura of the giant egg burst forth, absorbing the surrounding killing formations like a raging storm, and pure power from within the killing formations transformed into streaks of red light, flowing into the giant egg!
Hoo hoo hoo~~
Hoo hoo~~
Hoo hoo~~
Time quickly passed.
One by one, the killing formations exploded, crumbling to ash as they lost their power, even the vessel that laid them turned to ash.
Having eaten its fill, the Giant Egg exhaled contentedly and wobbled back to Ye Chen’s side, saying, “Boss, I’m quite full from these formations, I’m afraid I won’t be able to eat more if there are any more like them!”
“No matter!”
“Go back and rest for now!”
Ye Chen sent Little Gold back to the Samsara Graveyard and proceeded alone through the Sacrificial Chamber, his eyes scanning over a hundred coffins; his divine soul manifested and he could clearly see everything inside the coffins.
Buried in the hundred coffins were a hundred powerful warriors.
They wore blood-red immortal armors, with their hands placed over their chests and unique swords by their side. Each corpse was well-preserved and showed no signs of decay over time, and each body was sprinkled with a bit of Corpse Puppet Powder.
Ye Chen speculated that if it weren’t for him who entered just now.
The hundred samurais would have quickly transformed into corpses, breaking out of their coffins, each with at least the combat strength of the Disaster Slaying realm, and since they were corpses, just having their physical body power was equivalent to the Disaster Slaying realm, and in their lifetimes, they were likely at the peak of the Disaster Slaying realm.
“These powerful corpses!”
“It seems they were buried here voluntarily; it appears the Ye family member of this tomb is no ordinary person!”
“Even the lowest status must be an elder, to have such an arrangement.”
Musing to himself, Ye Chen’s aura burst forth, but the corpses in the coffins sensed it and didn’t react.
He left the Sacrificial Chamber and walked through the narrow tomb passages, which lacked any traps.
The master of the tomb obviously knew that anyone who made it this far was either a friend or foe.
A foe who made it this far was at least at the peak of the Disaster Slaying realm, hence no traps were laid, as setting traps would be seen as a joke to such strong individuals.
Ah~~!
Cries of blood-colored crows resounded.
The tomb chamber in view was vast, spanning at least a few thousand square meters, with many silver locust trees growing around, and Blood Demon Divine Crows—creatures that lived off Corpse Qi and demonic qi—perched on the withered trees, as large as a person, emitting terror-inducing mesmerizing sounds from their mouths.
Such creatures that resided in the tomb all year, even letting one out could devastate hundreds of top warriors, and even many at the Disaster Slaying realm would die under their beaks, yet there were hundreds of them in front of him.
Since stepping into the chamber, swarms of Blood Demon Divine Crows encircled and danced around Ye Chen, not attacking, but instead making eerily welcoming sounds as if greeting him.
Ye Chen swallowed hard, looked at the scene before him, and whispered: “Thankfully, they are my kin! I reckon, if someone of Elder Yun’s level, at the Disaster Slaying Realm, were to come here, they would probably be torn apart by these crows in an instant!”
Hoo hoo~~
Hoo~~
At the very center of this chamber, there was also a red-glowing killing formation.
Ye Chen chose not to destroy it, instead avoiding it, he made his way to the deep end of the chamber, his eyes fixed on a huge bronze gate, seemingly the only passage to the main tomb. He gently pushed it open to find a golden and splendid hall greet his sight, a stark contrast to the dark tomb chamber he had been in.
