Chapter 186 - She Bi Zombie Race (1/2)
Hua-la——
The spindrift dispersed and landed him right in front of the little temple, leaving nothing behind but the amazements he had towards Shui Zian, Elder Shui Zian's prowess is incredible, the skills need to make this river were perfectly executed, exerting just the right amount of strength to land me right in front of the temple. He is indeed the legendary man who had forged one of the Ten Malefic Weapons and the progenitor of the [Sixty-Four Sword Styles]! Right now, Elder Shui is wounded, I wonder the battle between him and Xiao Que would transpire, could he win….
It was pitch-black inside the little temple,even the doors were black in color. It was a stark contrast to the other celestial temples that flared luminously in the night – this temple appeared to be cold and dilapidated.
It was dead silent, and the silence was almost overwhelming.
Zhong Yue recollected his thoughts and knocked on the temple door —Kock kock— the sound released was unexpectedly shrill.
Then, the sounds of creaking could be heard as the dark black doors opened slowly and imperiously. Within the pure darkness behind the door, there was a dark black hand slowly reaching out. Immediately, Zhong Yue quickly placed the willow trees token onto the palm of the dark hand, when he came in contact with the hand, he could not feel the usual warmth that normally accompanied a hand, only a surge of an icy-cold sensation. It was so frigid that the coldness seeped into his bones, sending waves of chills down his spine!
The icy-cold sensation was so intense that it was as if there were poisons that engendered within the coldness. Zhong Yue had to visualize the Great Sun to eradicate the ice poison away from his body.
The owner of the icy-cold palm verified the token with its touch before slowly receding back into the darkness.
Moments later, there was a melodiously sweet voice of a lady coming from the little temple, "So you're the messenger of Shui Zian. Please, come in."
Zhong Yue kept his mouth shut as instructed by Shui Zian, not saying a word and standing right outside of the door.
"The smell of the humans … so you are from the human race, what are you afraid of?"
The laughter of the lady came from inside of the temple, her voice was soothing as she chortled coquettishly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not going to eat you."
Zhong Yue stood steadfast, he could sense the air of the hunters coming closer to its prey. Clearly, the celestial experts gad locked in on his aura and were able to track him down wherever he went!
"You enemies are here for you, their prowess are way beyond your level, Quick, come into the temple and I'll ward them off for you." The lady's voices rang in his ears, beckoning him to enter the temple.
However, Zhong Yue was determined his heart and stood staunchly in front of the door, disregarding her words no matter how hard she tempted him. He thought to himself, There's no reason for Elder Shui to warn me so many times if it wasn't important. So, if he asked me not to enter the temple and to shut my mouth, then I'll do as he says, staying right outside of the temple and not saying a word!
Her voices came from the temple again, "I've been alone in this empty temple for so long, I'm so lonely. Human boy, why can't you enter the temple and accompany me for awhile? I just want you to come in…."
Hu hu hu— Dong dong dong—
Sounds of air getting pierced followed by the sounds of heavy objects landing could be heard, the ground was quaking and the woods swayed violently as their leaves rained down onto the ground. It was as the earth was holding a procession announcing the arrival of the celestial that came after Zhong Yue!
Zhong Yue cast his gaze over with the help of the moonlight. One after another, huge and tall figures walked out from the dark and bathed in the moonlight. In the woods, eyes glared like night lanterns, some glowed in red, some green, some yellow and there were some in the form of fire, burning flames in the sockets of their eyes.
These experts … other than Xiao Mang, Shan Shen and Gui Shen, there are still four more celestial races!
Zhong Yue identified the celestials from their glittering eyes, his heart stiffened up, The other celestial races have also sent their experts to come after me….
"Human, Shui Zian is currently entangled by Xiao Que, you are out of options."
Their eyes glittered in the dark, a pair of eyes among them hovered forward, the owner of the pair of eyes said eerily, "The ones who have reverse opened the five Yuan Shen realms will have to die regardless of the races, let alone the humans! Now, you have nowhere to run, and nowhere to hide. So, sit down and embrace death!"
Zhong Yue kept his mouth shut while standing in front of the temple door, the aura of these experts was too overpowering to him, way beyond the level he could even hope to put up a fight. They were all at least experts at the level of hall masters. The surrounding air seemed to stagnate as they instilled the despair into their surroundings.
Although he had reverse opened the five Yuan Shen realms, he was still too weak and tiny in the eyes of all these experts, so petty that he was nothing more than an ant against their seemingly unstoppable might.
When will it be … that I become an earth-shaking expert, to ride the clouds and gallop on the earth, and wherever I go, the celestials would kneel down and shudder in fear?
Zhong Yue kept mum, he thought, I'm not one yet, as of now … But in the future, I swear that I will turn that into reality!
"Not saying a word, are you? Did fear just swallow your heart and shatter your guts?"
A pair of eyes flared in the dark, pressing forward towards Zhong Yue while continued smilingly, "But no matter what, your death must be confirmed!"
All of a sudden, a terrifying strong air erupted out, getting closer and closer to the little dark celestial temple. With the help of the moonlights, Zhong Yue could see a mountainous body with muscles bulging out of the skins bolting over while reaching his hands out clawing at Zhong Yue!
A hall master-levelled expert, had finally made a move!
Right at the moment where the celestial expert acted, the three skyscraping willow trees swayed on their own in the windless air, the twigs of the willow trees undulated in the air and abruptly, they shot out like nocked arrows finally let loose —Hu hu hu— they twined on the mountainous body and dragged him into the little temple!
The celestial expert let out a shrill shriek in pain and terror. It was as if the cry was a signal, the other celestial experts instantly launched their attacks and the after-impacts of their skills quaked the earth, trembling the air!
Strong and powerful skills blasted around centering at the little dark temple, their prowess could infuse fear into the weaklings, ravaging the land of a hundred miles in radius around the little temple with various terrifying specters emerging in the air!
