144: Chapter 144
"Mere tricks, yet you dare to show off before this Daoist."
"This Daoist does not wish to say this a second time. Leave here immediately, or suffer the consequences."
At this moment, the massive stone doors of the Demon Emperors Tomb had fully opened, and a powerful red whirlwind emerged from within, sucking everything outside into it.
Faced with such immense suction, these Demons and Monsters, as well as the Cultivators, were all unable to resist.
Subsequently, the massive stone doors closed rapidly. They were sucked into the Demon Emperors Tomb, into a darkness that seemed endless, where one could not even see their own fingers.
Even by using magical power to force their vision open, it remained pitch black, and nothing could be seen.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The lamps around the stone walls lit up instantly, startling the previously arrogant Sword Immortal.
Seeing that the opposing side was numerous and possessed impressive combat strength, Hua Feng changed his previously arrogant stance and proposed the intention to cooperate.
"Everyone, now that we have all entered the Demon Emperors Tomb, it is said that it is guarded by the powerful Undead."
"We should cooperate sincerely to defeat the strong enemy and share the treasures of the Demon Emperors Tomb together."
Gui Jianchou and Ao Wuming both looked at Tian Kui; she was the Alliance captain, and they were waiting for her to speak.
Tian Kui nodded: "Then let us cooperate. I hope you Daoists will not play any dirty tricks behind our backs."
To confront the Undead guarding the Tomb, temporary cooperation was the best plan. There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
Those Sword Immortals were not kind-hearted people; Xiao Bai was already calculating how to play dirty tricks next.
Chapter 190: The Undead that Ignore Defense
The massive stone bricks inside the Tomb shook violently, and a deep, resonant voice echoed through the spacious Tomb hall.
"Those who trespass shall die..."
Whoosh!
A group of black cavalrymen lined up neatly and charged at Xiao Bai and his group from four directions.
Gui Jianchou panicked and shouted loudly: "Everyone be careful, these are Undead cavalrymen."
"Inside the Tomb, they can ignore the enemy's defense; they are immortal and indestructible."
Hua Feng mocked: "Cowardly rats, they are just a group of ghost soldiers; look how scared you all are."
"My body is like a sword; one sword strike opens the heavens."
The long sword in Hua Feng's hand grew over forty meters long, sweeping and slashing across the cavalrymen, turning all of them into dust instantly.
His confidence exploded, and he became even more arrogant.
"Everyone has seen it now; this is the strength of a Level 9 Sword Immortal. This Daoist has sought immortality and the Dao for ten thousand years; how could I fear these things from the underworld?"
The Junior Brothers gave thumbs up repeatedly, praising their Senior Brother for being awesome, and did not forget to turn around and mock Xiao Bai and his group.
"You Demons and Monsters should be secretly happy to have a powerhouse like our Senior Brother assisting you."
Xiao Bai pointed behind Hua Feng: "Stop showing off; your forty-meter blade is truly useless."
"How is that possible?"
Hua Feng turned his head abruptly; the cavalrymen that had just been smashed to pieces were completely unharmed and were quickly organizing their ranks to charge toward him.
Xiao Bai grabbed Feng Yun and decisively ran away: "Do you still want to rush over and fight? Didn't you hear the old ghost? These Undead cavalrymen ignore defense and cannot be killed."
The golden bowl followed closely behind Xiao Bai, with the Magbi siblings still inside.
Tian Kui gave the order: "Everyone split up, disperse, and search for treasures."
"Understood..."
Upon receiving the order, the Ghost Clan and the Dragon Clan scattered, acting separately according to the groups previously divided.
They rushed into two extremely dark passageways, and their figures soon disappeared.
Hua Feng had failed to show off just now and was slapped in the face; he gathered his Junior Brothers to confront the Undead cavalrymen.
Xiao Bai and the others had already disappeared and couldn't be bothered with him.
"Bastards, these Demons and Monsters have no sense of contract, are heartless, unrighteous, and shameless."
A moment of carelessness, and a cavalryman knocked Hua Feng flying over ten meters away; his sword striking the cavalryman caused absolutely no damage.
These cavalrymen could not only ignore defense but also became stronger when faced with strength; they simply could not be killed.
Hua Feng was left in a mess, and since there was no audience, he immediately gave the order to retreat.
"Junior Brothers, follow me; we must not let those Demons and Monsters take any more treasures."
"Understood... Senior Brother!"
After entering the passageways, the main group encountered an undercurrent and were all separated.
Xiao Bai and Feng Yun were swept into the same space, and Tian Kui fell down shortly after.
With a clang, the golden bowl also rolled down from a secret passage; this place was filled with all sorts of wondrous mechanisms, seemingly intending to scatter the main group.
Feng Yun moved a small step forward and stepped on a stone brick, which wobbled slightly.
The sound of bullets being chambered echoed through the quiet space.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A large number of crossbow bolts appeared from the surrounding walls, shooting toward them in unison.
Tian Kui shouted: "Everyone be careful, do not get hit, otherwise it will be very dangerous."
"These mechanisms are very profound and can ignore defense; the arrows in the passageway just now even pierced through the hard dragon scales of several Five-Clawed Golden Dragons."
Xiao Bai looked calm: "It's not a big problem."
He blew a breath at Feng Yun and Tian Kui, turning them into strands of hair to successfully avoid this sneak arrow attack, and then they changed back.
Feng Yun patted her nose: "Whoa, your breath is so strong, it's really stinging my eyes."
"Don't worry about the details; the result is good."
Tian Kui's expression was grave; she could not help but worry about the other fox demons who had been scattered.
This kind of physical attack that ignores defense caused significant harm to them; one moment of carelessness and they would be shot into a hornet's nest.
However, the Ghost Clan was adept at handling this; they could turn into black smoke at any time, and the arrows would strike as if shooting into thin air.
No wonder Gui Jianchou was able to successfully escape the Demon Emperors Tomb back then without sustaining much injury.
Tian Kui dared not move a step forward, fearing she would trigger even more powerful mechanisms.
The three of them stood there dumbfounded. Xiao Bai suddenly realized: "That's right, isn't Magbi a Feng Shui master? The mechanisms of this Tomb were set up by his ancestors; let him come out and break them."
Actually, there was another way, which was for everyone to hide inside the golden bowl, but that would greatly limit their movement.
To fit five people inside, the golden bowl would have to become the size of a van, making it impossible to enter the narrow passageways.
Unless the golden bowl was made smaller, which meant shrinking all four of them at the same time, Xiao Bai would consume a huge amount of magical power.
After weighing everything, it was better to let Magbi out and use his expertise to break these mechanisms and lead them out of here.
After the golden bowl was retracted, the Magbi siblings were lying on the ground, their legs numb.
Tian Kui was somewhat surprised: "You actually really found the Elf Clan."
Xiao Bai spread his hands and laughed: "Otherwise?"
"The two items required to enter the Tomb are with the Elf Clan; it couldn't be done without them."
Feng Yun pointed at Magli, speaking a bit shyly: "She is bleeding there."
Tian Kui decisively took out a clean white cloth to help Magli deal with it, serving the purpose of a sanitary pad.
Feng Yun's eyes were filled with anger as she glared at Xiao Bai: "I told you to be gentle; why did you have to be so rough?"
"Your Majesty, I was at my gentlest, and I only used one; who knew she was so fragile."
Xiao Bai pretended to look very innocent, his face full of petty grievances: "If her virgin essence blood didn't have a wonderful use, I wouldn't want to do this."
"It makes me look worse than an animal, attacking such tender meat."
Feng Yun said impatiently: "Alright, stop acting innocent after getting the advantage."
Tian Kui was the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Fox Clan and was proficient in medical arts; besides, this was nothing major.
"Don't be so nervous; the female Elf is fine."
"Her virginity was broken earlier, and no protection was applied in time."
While speaking, she specifically glanced sideways at Xiao Bai, feeling as if these words were meant for him.
Xiao Bai took five Mojin Xiaowei amulets out of the qiankun bag and distributed one to each person.
"Now that we have entered the Tomb chamber, wearing the Mojin Xiaowei amulet on your body can keep you safe."
Subsequently, he took out black donkey hooves and sticky rice: "And this too; Zongzi might run out at any time, and these things can deal with them."
Immediately after, Xiao Bai took out a candle, turned into a wisp of smoke, floated to the southeast corner, and lit the candle.
His mouth kept muttering incantations: "People light the candle, ghosts blow out the lamp; if the light goes out, do not touch the gold."
"Ancestral Master, bless us."
Magbi watched with great interest from the side, his face full of adoration.
"Brother Bai is too professional; he actually knows so much."
Magbi then pulled out a Mojin Xiaowei amulet from his clothes; in comparison, the one Xiao Bai had just given him was a knockoff.
"A Bi, yours has such a thick patina; it must be a genuine antique."
"Why didn't you take it out earlier?"
Magbi smiled awkwardly: "This was passed down by my ancestors; I only now realize this is a Mojin Xiaowei amulet."
