233 F*ck—We Need to Resurrect the Corpse and Do It Again (1/2)

”... Can this sword tomb be serious a bit!?”

Looking dumbfoundedly at the towering mountain at the distant, the Lead Representative of Kunlun Immortal Sect Zhou Mumu inwardly felt incredulous.

Is this the guardian? Is this the damn guardian!? Do we really need to take down a lofty mountain to advance to the next level? Are you kidding me?

Although many people described the magical power of cultivators as something that could move mountains and fill the sea and other such words, and within the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, there were indeed Daoist Immortals that could move mountains and fill the sea, but, among the present cultivators, not a single one of them was even a Daoist Master. What mountain? Mountain of bread? Not to mention the guardian was not a dead object, since it has a mountain-size like body, its magical power was certainly higher than the mountain!

In legend, only the ancestors of the shamans from the Great Drought Era, which was even more ‘time immemorial’ in the past, have this kind of hiding-the-sky-covering-the-earth body type. However, any senior ancestor shaman who could live to this age would’ve already swept away the entire Nine Regions.

Of course, if it were a true ancestor shaman, it would not be reduced to a watchdog in one of the levels in this ancient sword tomb—even if it was the last level’s watchdog. However, the guardian’s strength was still much more than expected.

At this time, even Shengjing Sect team, as the most arrogant of them, were also glad not to take the high-pressure policy to try to monopolize the sword tomb from the other three sects.

The people of the Ten Thousand Arts Sect were baffled. ”Why would the master of this place leave such a test? Didn’t he think that it would be too hard?”

Wang Lu said, ”It’s probably because ten thousand years ago, the guardian is probably not that big.”

Upon hearing that, everybody was startled, then immediately realized that this lofty mountain was probably because of the result of the passing of time. Just like a small sapling that grew into a towering ancient tree. In the past, the guardian was probably just a formidable enemy, but now...

Zhou Mumu furrowed her brows as she said, ”But, why can’t I feel any of its spiritual energy?”

Wang Lu waved his hand. ”Because it’s dead.”

”D-dead!?”

”After ten thousand years, except plants, who could live that long? Let alone the passage of time here is certainly not the same as the outside, therefore, ten thousand years on the outside is equal to even more than that here.”

Zhou Mumu asked, ”... The guardian is dead, so what are we supposed to do? Whip its corpse?”

Wang Lu said, ”I’m not sure either. Perhaps there’s no good answer to this question. This sword tomb, after all, has been sleeping for far too long; it has even experienced the last Age of Chaos. Therefore, a lot of things might not be following the rules; even if we meet a dead end, we have nothing to say.”

After that, this flat piece of land on top of the peak of one of the mountains fell into a long silence. The people from the other three sects naturally would not completely trust the words of Wang Lu. Shengjing Sect people divided their team into five sub-teams to explore this vast mountainous area separately.

A moment later, the people of Ten Thousand Arts Sect and Kunlun Immortal Sect also left one by one. Everyone agreed to rendezvous in this place half a day later. Wang Lu shook his head but didn’t follow them down the mountain. Instead, he set up a campfire and began to cook for Liu Li and Bai Shixuan.

Liu Li has always been a good companion. As long as her belly was full of food and drink, she would be as happy as a clam. However, Bai Shixuan looked worried. ”Senior Brother, the atmosphere here is very strange, I can’t sense any spirit of all living things at all.”

Wang Lu said, ”This is only an inner space of the sword tomb, and has been sleeping for ten thousand years. The surrounding spiritual energy veins have long been cut off, so how could there be a spirit of all living things?”

Bai Shixuan tried to explain, ”Things are more complicated than what I said, and I might not say it properly, in fact…”

However, before she could continue, Wang Lu had reached out his finger to cover her lips and shook his head, signaling her that there was no need for her to continue.

Bai Shixuan was stunned, then immediately realized Wang Lu probably had a better idea and had already thought it through. Immediately. the worry in her heart vanished, and the smile that hung once again on her face became too beautiful to behold.

After half a day, the people from the other sects returned with mixed looks.

After half a day, they should have seen and should have also tried. The most radical one was people of Shengjing Sect; they tried to shell the mountain with the immortal method that has the most destructive power. The result of that was, they made a giant one hundred meters deep pit on the hard-as-steel mountain. The power was indeed amazing, but it was meaningless.

Whipping a corpse was not the same as beating a guardian.

Feeling that he was filled with bad luck, Jianglu strode toward Wang Lu and said, ”If you have a way, just say it.”

Wang Lu said, ”To be honest, a correct way I have not, but a crooked way I have. If you guys really have no way to deal with this situation, you might as well try it.”

”What is it?”

”Resurrect it first and then kill it.”
