329: Chapter 329 The Bronze Door into the Underground, the Awakening Army of Zombies!
A blood-colored phantom swung two massive scythes, slashing fiercely toward the top of Su Yang's head.
Su Yang didn't dodge or evade, meeting it with a punch.
The golden fist radiance collided with the blood-colored scythes.
The hard scythes shattered into countless pieces instantly, like fragile glass.
Before the red blood could hit the ground, it was evaporated into white smoke by the Pure Yang True Fire.
The blood-colored phantom let out a roar of agony.
It raised a foot as large as a mountain, attempting to crush Su Yang.
Su Yang gave a cold laugh and tossed his right hand upward, sending the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Seal flying into the air.
The purple-gold seal expanded rapidly against the wind, transforming into a thousand-foot-tall divine mountain of thunder.
Ten thousand streaks of purple lightning roamed across the surface of the mountain.
"Suppress."
Su Yang uttered two words.
Carrying power that could destroy heaven and earth, the divine mountain of thunder slammed heavily onto the head of the blood-colored phantom.
Rumble!
The several-hundred-meter-tall phantom was completely unable to resist, instantly crushed into a pool of foul-smelling blood.
The Pure Yang True Fire on the divine seal spread along with it, burning the blood away completely.
A fist-sized, blood-red crystal core fell from mid-air.
Su Yang reached out and caught it. The crystal core was filled with pure blood-fiend energy.
"Take this as a snack."
Su Yang threw the crystal core to Chu Ling.
Chu Ling caught the crystal core, her icy blue eyes filled with joy: "Thank you, Boss."
Mary flapped her bat wings in mid-air and pouted her red lips: "Boss is biased, I want a gift too."
Su Yang pointed at the ground ahead: "There's more up front."
Where the altar had shattered, a massive black hole appeared.
A flight of bluestone steps extended downward, seemingly without end.
Su Yang took the lead and walked down the steps.
Bai Li, Chu Ling, and Mary followed behind him.
Qin Xueji gripped Bai Li's arm tightly, her high heels making crisp echoes as they stepped on the stone stairs.
The passage was pitch black.
A ball of golden flame lit up at Su Yang's fingertips, illuminating the surroundings.
The further down they went, the lower the temperature dropped. The stone walls were covered in thick frost.
The air was thick with a strong stench of rot and blood.
After walking for nearly half an hour, the terrain leveled out.
A massive bronze door appeared ahead.
The surface of the door was carved with many hideous malevolent ghost totems.
On either side, a green ever-burning lamp flickered with dismal light.
Su Yang walked to the front of the door and delivered a fierce kick to the bronze door.
Bang!
The heavy bronze door was kicked flying directly, letting out a massive roar.
The group walked inside.
This was a vast underground plaza.
The ground was paved entirely with black square stones, flat and hard.
Eight thick stone pillars stood around the plaza. Wrapped around the pillars were black iron chains as thick as a wrist.
The other ends of the eight chains were all connected to a massive copper coffin in the center of the plaza.
The copper coffin was twenty meters long, its surface covered in green verdigris and plastered with dozens of yellow talismans.
Thump... Thump...
A series of dull sounds came from inside the copper coffin.
It sounded like a heartbeat, very slow yet very powerful.
With every beat, the black stone slabs on the ground vibrated slightly.
Chu Ling stepped forward, cold air beginning to radiate from her body.
"Boss, there's something living inside."
Bai Li observed for a moment and warned: "It doesn't seem like a living person; the corpse qi is very heavy. It's an Ancient Corpse King."
Su Yang continued walking forward with steady steps.
"No matter what it is, if it dares to block the path, I'll smash it."
Just as they reached a point less than ten meters from the copper coffin—
Whoosh!
The yellow talismans on the surface of the copper coffin suddenly ignited, turning to ash in the blink of an eye.
The eight black iron chains were pulled taut, emitting a clattering sound of metal clashing.
Bang!
The massive coffin lid was kicked flying from the inside by a great force.
The lid tumbled through the air several times before slamming heavily into a stone pillar, causing several deep cracks to appear on the pillar.
A surge of thick green corpse poison erupted from the coffin.
When the poisonous gas touched the ground, the black stones immediately emitted white smoke, being corroded into dense clusters of small pits.
A withered hand with long black fingernails reached out, gripping the edge of the coffin.
Immediately after, a figure over three meters tall stood up from the coffin.
This was a general wearing tattered ancient battle armor.
There wasn't a single piece of healthy flesh on his body; his purplish-black skin was shriveled and stuck to his bones.
Beneath the helmet, two eyes glowed with eerie green ghost fire.
In his hand, he held a rusted bronze halberd, the blade stained with dried black blood.
"Those who trespass into the General's Tomb shall die!"
The Zombie General let out a piercing screech.
The sound was like a knife scraping glass, making one's ears ache.
With a forceful kick of his legs, he jumped directly out of the copper coffin.
His massive frame brought a gust of foul wind as he raised the bronze halberd and slashed it down at Su Yang's head.
The halberd sliced through the air with a sharp whistle.
Su Yang stood his ground, neither dodging nor evading.
He clenched his right hand into a fist and punched out to meet the halberd.
Clang!
The golden fist struck the edge of the bronze halberd, sending sparks flying in all directions.
There was a crisp crackling sound.
The rusted bronze halberd snapped directly into two pieces from the middle.
The broken halberd head fell to the ground, smashing the stone slabs.
The Zombie General was forced back repeatedly by the powerful counter-shock force, only managing to stop once he reached the side of the copper coffin.
Holding the remaining piece of the wooden shaft, a flash of shock appeared in his green eyes.
"Is this all the strength you have?"
Su Yang shook his wrist, his tone indifferent.
The Zombie General was completely enraged.
He threw away the broken wooden shaft, tilted his head back, and let out a long, piercing howl.
Awooo—!
The piercing howl echoed back and forth within the underground plaza.
As the cry rang out, the black stone slabs around the plaza suddenly began to shatter on a large scale.
Slab after slab was forcibly pushed open from underground.
Hundreds of black stone coffins slowly rose from beneath the ground, arranged in a dense formation around the plaza.
Bang, bang, bang!
The lids of all the stone coffins were kicked open simultaneously. Hundreds of zombie soldiers wearing ruined iron armor crawled out of the coffins.
Holding various rusted weapons, they walked stiffly toward Su Yang's group, forming a massive encirclement.
Although these zombie soldiers were not as powerful as the general, their sheer numbers were enough to make one's skin crawl.
A dense stench of corpses filled the entire space.
Seeing so many zombies, Mary licked her red lips excitedly.
With a wave of her hands, her nails instantly lengthened, transforming into ten red blades.
"Boss, leave these small fry to me! I'll dismantle them all and play with them like building blocks!"
Mary flapped her bat wings, eager to charge forward.
Chu Ling also stepped forward, condensing a faint blue ice sword in her hand.
"Half each. Let's see who kills more."
Chu Ling's voice was cold, her Battle Intent surging.
Su Yang nodded.
He indeed didn't need to personally deal with these minor mobs.
"Go ahead, be quick about it."
Mary and Chu Ling turned into two streaks of light, charging directly into the zombie horde. A one-sided slaughter instantly unfolded.
Red claw shadows and blue sword light flashed continuously across the plaza.
Severed limbs flew everywhere, and black blood splattered across the ground.
The ordinary zombie soldiers were completely unable to withstand the attacks of the two peerless powerhouses.
Su Yang did not watch them fight.
His gaze passed over the Zombie General and looked toward the deepest part of the plaza.
In a dark corner dozens of meters away, a massive fissure suddenly opened in the ground.
An even more colossal bronze coffin was slowly rising from underground, bit by bit.
The surface of the giant coffin was carved with nine black dragons.
A terrifying aura that made the Soul feel oppressed was slowly radiating from inside the giant coffin.
The Zombie General knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly toward the rising giant bronze coffin.
