Chapter 423 - 423: Enter the Tower!
Qin Feng subconsciously felt that the iron pestle was no ordinary item.
Even though it was covered in rust.
But its aura was like that of a deity, majestic and solemn!
He remembered Dong Haimei once mentioned that there were Demon-Subduing Pestles in this area, perhaps this was it!
He hesitated for a moment.
Qin Feng walked up to the sculpture and took the iron pestle from its hand.
Indeed!
As soon as he touched it, he felt a strange power emanating from the iron pestle.
"I'm saying, why are you looking for that broken thing, we better get out of this ghostly place quickly!" Life-taking Ghost hurried him.
Qin Feng ignored him, pocketed the Demon-Subduing Pestle, and then walked towards the tower in front of the Priest Platform.
Seeing this, the crowd hurriedly tried to stop him, saying, "You can go anywhere else, but you can't enter this tower, you should be able to feel it! This tower is faintly emitting some strange aura, there must be a problem."
"Nonsense, if there wasn't a problem I wouldn't enter. Doesn't this exactly show that what I'm looking for might be inside the tower?" Qin Feng said.
"..."
The crowd was chocked, not knowing how to persuade him.
At this moment.
When Qin Feng's hands touched the tower gates.
Suddenly, a rustling sound echoed around.
"Not good!!"
Life-taking Ghost then said, "They're coming, they are here!"
Hearing this, others also crowded in fear towards Qin Feng.
Qin Feng looked around.
He startlingly saw numerous black beetles, the size of fingernails, swarming over from all directions.
"Run!!"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
People were frightened and wanted to flee, but all the paths around were swarmed by these black beetiles.
Qin Feng looked.
He startlingly saw a nearby black rat, after being attacked by the black beetles, was reduced to a skeleton within seconds, not even a drop of blood left.
Lin Xue'er was even more frightened and clung tightly to Qin Feng.
"Let's talk inside."
Qin Feng pushed open the tower door and went inside.
Life-taking Ghost and others, having no other choice, also hurried inside.
The black beetles crawled too fast.
The last two people, not even making it through the door, were already caught by them, climbing up from their trouser legs, all the way up their bodies.
"Ah——!!"
"Ah——!!"
The shrill screams echoed throughout the ancient city.
The black beetiles behind quickly caught up, completely engulfing the two men.
Seconds later.
Only a pile of bones remained of the two men!!!
The crowd watched in horror.
They were two Grandmasters!
They couldn't believe they died so tragically!!
"Close the door quick!"
Someone yelled.
Only then did everyone close the door, preventing the black beetles from coming in.
The hall was very quiet.
Blue butterflies were flying around, illuminating the place.
People were lamenting that another two had died, when all of a sudden the chubby protector from the Broken Mountain Sect was stunned, staring at the other side of the hall, he said, "It's done, we're done..."
People looked up.
They startlingly saw pairs of eerie green eyes!
When those eyes got closer.
They confirmed that those eyes were indeed spiders!
The spiders were about the size of eggs, but there were too many of them, densely packed like the black beetles outside!
"These spiders are poisonous!"
Life-taking Ghost said nervously at that moment, "Some of our people from Life-taking Sect died at their hands..."
As he spoke.
Suddenly a spider on the ceiling sprayed a stream of poison liquid, aiming at a person in the crowd.
"Ah——!!"
That person's face was immediately corroded by the poison, screaming in pain.
Seeing this, Qin Feng thought about using blood to drive away the spiders, but it was too disgusting.
But he knew.
With so many Grandmasters present, they would surely notice.
So.
No matter what, they absolutely cannot expose themselves!
After a brief thought.
He immediately told everyone to take off their coats, and then used the Separation Fire Essence to set their clothes on fire, to drive away the spiders.
Indeed.
With the torches, the spiders dared not approach.
They hurriedly continued upwards.
Second Level.
Life-taking Ghost was the first one to rush up.
Who would have known.
Just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief, they were scared stiff again!
"Quick, move it! Don't block the way!!"
People like Wind and Thunder King urged from behind.
As they looked ahead, they too were dumbfounded, shocked!
They saw that the Second Level was already swarming with many pythons waiting for them, similar to those outside, mostly with red eyes, large fangs, hissing with their tongues and making a creepy "sss" sound.
"Whoosh—!"
A python, like an arrow off its bow, quickly snapped towards them.
Terrifying everyone, not knowing what to do.
In the nick of time, a dazzling sword light flashed by, splitting the python into two.
It was Qin Feng.
He had swiftly chopped the python in half!
"Charge, hurry up and charge!"
With spiders chasing behind, and pythons here, Life-taking Ghost, Wind and Thunder King, and others panicked and rushed towards the Third Level.
The pythons swarmed them.
But they were each chopped into segments by Qin Feng.
For Qin Feng, dealing with these pythons was very simple, even without the Life and Death Blade.
Upon reaching the Third Level.
Everyone once again despaired.
They saw that the Third Level was filled completely with cats that were almost rotting!
The cat bodies were nearly decayed without fur, their exteriors oozing with what was unknown to be blood or pus, eyes eerily green like gemstones, shining brightly in the darkness.
"It's over, it's over..."
Life-taking Ghost and others said nervously, unable to speak.
They could feel clearly that these Blood Cats were far more dangerous than the pythons and spiders below!
Qin Feng saw them and felt extremely disgusted.
Not to mention Lin Xue'er, being a girl.
Lin Xue'er almost started vomiting.
"It seems I have to use my own blood to scare these ghostly things away, too disgusting!" Qin Feng muttered to himself.
No choice.
He didn't want to use his own blood.
But these things were too nauseating.
At this moment.
These Blood Cats also menacingly approached them step by step.
Qin Feng quietly bit his finger, unbeknownst to others, flicked a Blood Pearl at them, and then shouted, "Monsters, scram!!" T!h%i^s% c%o&nte^nt was fi#rst r!e!l!e-a.se#d% on *^.%
"..."
Qin Feng was dazed.
The scene in front of him was not as he had imagined where these Blood Cats would be scared and run away in disarray.
Instead, they greedily licked up his drop of blood, as if they had enjoyed a delicious meal, and then continued towards them...
"What's going on?"
Qin Feng said.
"Meow—!!!"
One of the Blood Cats pounced towards Qin Feng.
Qin Feng simply raised his sword and chopped it down.
After chopping it down.
Who knew that the Blood Cat was not dead yet, its remaining head and forelimbs still struggling towards Qin Feng!
Qin Feng had to split its head into two!
"So that's it!"
Looking at the bloody mess, he finally understood why his blood was useless.
It turned out that these creatures had no souls.
They were a group of Walking Dead!
At this moment.
Dozens of other Blood Cats, also ferociously clawing towards Qin Feng and others.
Seeing this, Qin Feng, enduring the disgust, directly swung the Life and Death Blade towards the crowd of them.
Life-taking Ghost and others, seeing most of the Blood Cats drawn away by Qin Feng, hurriedly rushed towards the Fourth Level.
No choice.
A large group of pythons was about to come over!
