Chapter 462 - Tomb of the thousand armed asura (Part-3) (1/2)
The group slowly and cautiously entered the tomb, their senses ever vigilant to spot the next trap that was waiting to spring on them.
”A rather large hallway.”, one of the cultivators remarked though Ryuu did not pay any attention to him rather he was busy looking around trying to figure the next trap.
”Part of the ceiling near the entrance seems to have fallen off, do you think that was the trap.”
Ryuu's eyes fell on speaker as Severing Saber spoke with a frown, ”I think so to that gas was definitely stored behind the part of the ceiling and once it fell off the gas was released, though I would not recommend touching the walls, ceilings or the floors.”
Hearing his warning Ryuu could not help but speak out loud, ”Residual poison.”
Severing Saber nodded with a grim expression on his face as he spoke, ”Yes residual poison.”
The hallway was larger for the entire group to enter easily, but as soon as the last of their member entered the room with a bang the door closed behind them, startling everyone.
”Damn it we are trapped.”
One of them cried out in fear, which soon turned into a cacophony only to be silence by Ryuu with a good helping of his aura and killing intent.
”Silence.”, as the sound subsided abruptly Ryuu continued to speak, ”Now array masters, with me we have work ….”
Whatever he was about to say came to an abrupt halt as a holographic image formed and a voice came to their ears, ”Greetings, robbers and thieves, greetings I hope you have had a nice journey to my tomb, to those idiots who do not know me my name is Daoist Thousand Arms, also known as Thousand Arms Asura, how I died and when I died are irrelevant but what I know is that I had failed to accomplish one thing, a great thing, that is living behind my legacy, I forgot to take a student.”
The figure paused for a second before it began to speak again with a smile, ”As such I left behind a soul imprint that would oversee the trials, passing which you would have access to my techniques and skills that made me famous, which are kept somewhere in this tomb, and with the hope that you succeed I advise you to pay attention to the instructions and try not to die.”
With his words being said the figure vanished from their sight as once again a murmur began to spread amongst the group only for a deep booming voice to be heard, ”During the trial KI cannot be used.”
No sooner did they hear those words they suddenly felt as if their KI was being chained down to the point that they had become mortals and a side effect of which caused them to temporarily lose their ability to fly.
As a result, the cultivators all fell to the ground on a heap, with a few crying out in pain, Ryuu gathered his bearings as he quickly shifted through his fall carrying Frost Flames in a bridal style something that True-Spear quickly copied as he carried Zywia, while Amnon, on the other hand, ended up to be a living cushion for Daniella.
”Are you alright my love?”
Frost Flames nodded as Ryuu let her go as he turned around he stifled a laugh seeing Amnon sprawled on the floor with his Dao Companion sitting on top of his back without a care of the world.
He turned his head as he watched Frozen Ocean had helped Su-Min to land, he sent her a nod which she returned, as his eyes then fell on others he frowned, 'Some of them failed to land properly though we are stronger than a normal mortal still a couple managed to even sprain their legs, pathetic that is what my master would call them seeing their such poor performance, it is true if someone receives a blow in a particular manner they would be hurt to the point their bones would break but for cultivators who share my level to get injured by only falling a hundred meters is really pathetic.'
”Is everyone alright?”
As Ryuu shouted out his concern one of the people winced as he spoke out loud, ”Ugh, damn it, I bungled up my landing and sprained my leg, but I am unable to access my space ring I hope one of you will help me out a bit.”
A stunned silence once again descended as many tried to open their space bag or space ring and failed miserably only for Devaraj to speak with a snort, ”You people can sometimes act like a fool, that person already told us no KI is allowed here and it is already suppressed to the point that we are mortals, so do you think a 'mortal' like us has enough strength to operate them.”
Severing Saber nodded with a grin on his face as he spoke, ”So true now buckle up and sorry but you will have to wait to heal it naturally.”
His words were replied by a groan as Severing Saber continued to speak, ”I hope you all understand how dire our situation is, no extra weapons, no talismans, no healing pills nothing all we could do is move forwards on our two legs and clear any obstacle with our two hands without the blessings of our KI a slight mistake would not only end our lives but at worse make us cripple.”
Ryuu nodded before he looked down at his hands, especially certain bangles that he was wearing, 'Hmm, it seems I am still able to use both my partners though it is a shame I will not be able to use my bow not only it is sealed it requires KI to use it.'
He then looked towards Frost Flames as he whispered to her, ”Stay close to me, I do not know how we are going to fair my abilities have been greatly hampered.”
With a serious look on her face, Frost Flames nodded as Froze Ocean approached the duo as she spoke with a concerned look on her face, ”Brother the seal on the poison.”
