Chapter 327 (2/2)
In the face of this many attacks, even Long Chen’s expression changed . He wasn’t afraid of these attacks, but the result of them .
However, Long Chen didn’t just watch as those attacks fell . His aura completely exploded, and he slashed out his saber .
A terrifying wave of qi sent those weapons flying . Those were all ‘concealed weapons’ used for surprise attacks . They were mostly only seen in the secular world, as cultivators rarely used them .
Cultivators cared more about strength . They looked down on concealed weapons . So the power of these concealed weapons wasn’t very high .
However, they hadn’t had any extravagant hopes of these weapons killing Long Chen, or even injuring him . The result they wanted had already happened .
As expected, the wave of qi and broken weapons shook the pa.s.sageway . Long Chen was already more than halfway down at this point, when suddenly countless stone holes opened on the wall, releasing steel arms .
Those arms all held a hammer that was the size of a small desk . They crazily smashed down repeatedly, releasing ear-piercing explosions .
“Haha, Long Chen, this time you were surprisingly good!” Quite a few Righteous disciples laughed heartily when they saw those mechanisms activate . Those hammers possessed the power to pound a person to mincemeat .
As for Guo Ran, he was filled with fury and hatred when he saw Long Chen being harmed by so many people .
“Hysterical Autumn Wind Dance . ”
A golden saber appeared in Long Chen’s hand, and Saber Qi appeared everywhere, surging out of the pa.s.sageway .
The ear-piercing explosions from the hammers caused the entire tomb to shake . Occasionally rubble from the ceiling would collapse down, causing everyone to scatter . They worried the entire tomb would come cras.h.i.+ng down .
At this time, not only were they shocked at how terrifying the ancient tomb’s mechanisms were, they were also shocked by Long Chen’s combat ability .
The explosive sound coming from the pa.s.sageway meant Long Chen had yet to die at this time and was still struggling .
Suddenly, the pa.s.sageway returned to calm . Only then did everyone come back to see that all the steel arms had returned within the walls .
“Did he die?”
“There’s no corpse . Was he torn to pieces?”
“There’s bloodstains on the walls . He should be dead, right?” They all saw the blood on the walls . That should be Long Chen’s .
But there wasn’t much blood on the walls . If Long Chen really had been smashed to pieces, there should have been much more .
They couldn’t see the bottom of the pa.s.sageway, so they had no idea whether his corpse was lying there or not .
At this time, someone threw down a lightstone . It was a special ore that could emit a bright light for a short period once activated . But after it used up all its energy, it couldn’t be used again, so it would be turned to garbage . In the outside world, it had quite a high price .
When people had entered the lounge, there had been three people who had used that ore to light up the entire lounge .
At this time, in order to confirm Long Chen’s death, they had no choice but to endure the pain and throw another one down . That immediately lit up the entire pa.s.sageway .
“Oh? So this pa.s.sageway is only a thousand meters deep . ” Previously, they had all thought it was extremely deep, as they hadn’t been able to see the bottom .
“I don’t see Long Chen’s corpse . ” Other than the bloodstains, there was no sign of Long Chen’s pa.s.sing .
They could see the floor at the bottom, but due to how narrow the pa.s.sageway was, they couldn’t see it very clearly .
“Boss, how could you die here?! Those d.a.m.nable sons of b.i.t.c.hes, they should all be struck by heavenly lightning right now . They should all die…!”
Guo Ran’s sobbing rang out from within the pa.s.sageway, delighting all of them . Long Chen’s death caused them all to sigh a breath of relief .
“For an amazing hero like boss to die here so tragically, how am I supposed to keep on living…” Guo Ran’s voice was extremely mournful, and just listening to it could fill a person with grief .
“Hey, that’s good enough . Why are you crying like that? Even I’m starting to think I’m dead,” whispered Long Chen .
Long Chen’s right shoulder had been gravely injured, with even his bone sticking out . That was an injury caused by one of the hammers .
Just thinking of those huge hammers gave Long Chen some fear . If such a hammer had landed on his head, would he even have a life left?
When he had pa.s.sed through the huge hammers, he had also used them to send himself straight through the last layers of mechanisms to reach the bottom .
If he were to have activated the final mechanisms, Long Chen estimated that he would definitely have died . When he had charged through those huge hammers, Devil Decapitator hadn’t been able to bear it, and several large nicks had been smashed into it, causing Long Chen endless pain . Those hammers had been too terrifying .
At the same time, he felt incredible hate for those people outside . Compared to the Corrupt disciples, Long Chen hated the Righteous disciples far more .
He hadn’t expected that it would be his fellow Righteous disciples who would instigate this attack on him . Furthermore, every one of them had helped . That caused Long Chen’s killing intent to boil .
“Boss, only by crying like this can I make it seem like you’re really dead . How else are we going to trick them to enter?” Guo Ran smiled sinisterly .
Just as he said that, another figure jumped in using the same method as Long Chen .
