Jiang Ming has lived for a staggering twelve thousand years. Even his master, senior brothers, and sisters have all ascended—yet he remains lying in his own grave pit, quietly waiting for death.<...
Chapter 374 Different Worlds, Same Situation
The whole place was in dead silence!
Looking at the dead Du Yan, all the disciples of Xu Qian Sect were stunned.
The elder of the Evil Spirit Hall died just like that? Moreover, what kind of swordsmanship did Jiang Ming use just now? How could it have such a terrifying murderous aura? They didn't dare to ask.
Before coming here, they still had doubts about Jiang Ming's strength. After all, such a young leader, even if he was recognized by the sect master, might not have much combat experience.
Now it seems that Jiang Ming's methods are too cruel and decisive. Even someone as strong as Du Yan at the peak of his fusion state has no way to gain any benefits from Jiang Ming!
Now that he thought about it carefully, it seemed that Jiang Ming had never been at a disadvantage since the beginning, but Du Yan's aura and pressure were too terrifying, making them dare not even breathe!
"So this senior... is so strong."
The disciples of Xu Qian Sect looked at Jiang Ming with admiration.
A powerful sword cultivator! This name has been firmly engraved in their hearts, and they are increasingly yearning for the goal of becoming a sword cultivator.
At this time, Jiang Ming slowly turned around, looked at the disciples behind him, and said, "It's all right now. There shouldn't be any danger around. We can go over and take a look."
Hearing this, several disciples who had previously spoken of going directly over now felt a little blushing.
At this time, someone said respectfully: "Senior, since you are leading us, you tell us where to go, and we will have no objection!"
As soon as this was said, others also echoed it.
"That's right, we'll go wherever the senior says."
"Senior is so powerful, we will definitely gain a lot from this ruins!"
"yes."
For a moment, the disciples of Xu Qianmen were no longer panicked, and smiles gradually appeared on their faces.
Looking at the appearance of these little guys, Jiang Ming didn't care so much.
Anyway, I was just here to lead the team, but I didn't expect to have some unexpected gains. This can be regarded as a small surprise of this trip.
At this time, Jiang Ming said calmly: "Let's go, lest others get there first."
After saying that, Jiang Ming put away his sword and walked forward.
As they left, they also passed by the place where Du Yan's body exploded.
Although Du Yan is dead, for the disciples of Xu Qian Sect, the invisible feeling of oppression is still unparalleled.
After they walked over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
And at this time, they could also feel a strong spiritual energy, which was extremely obvious in this botanical garden. This feeling was just like bathing in a hot spring, making people feel refreshed!
"What...what is that?"
At this moment, someone seemed to notice something.
After one person spoke, a female disciple screamed the next second.
"ah!"
The female disciple's scream immediately attracted everyone's attention, and almost everyone looked in one direction as if by reflex.
When they saw this, the seven of them suddenly felt their scalps tingling.
Because in front of them on the left, there was a pile of mummies wearing clothes! These mummies were all wearing the uniforms of disciples. Judging from the clothes, the disciples of Xuqian Sect could recognize that these were the clothes of the Evil Spirit Hall.
But why did all the disciples of the Evil Spirit Hall die here and turn into mummies?
At this time, Jiang Ming walked up slowly and looked at the mummies.
In the eyes of others, Jiang Ming's behavior was too careless.
What if it was a trap? However, after recalling Jiang Ming's terrifying strength, they quickly gave up the idea.
"These corpses..." Jiang Ming looked at these mummies and began to think deeply.
"Strange. The elder of the Evil Spirit Hall was clearly not far away. I was also a little puzzled at the time. Why were the disciples of the Evil Spirit Hall not by his side? Did they meet with death here?" Zhong Qiang said in a deep voice.
"That's not the case."
Jiang Ming quickly rejected Zhong Qiang's possibility.
Then, Jiang Ming said, "There is nothing that can threaten life nearby. Only this ancient tree is interesting. As for these corpses, I personally think that they were killed by the Third Elder you mentioned."
Upon hearing this, all the disciples of Xu Qian Sect were stunned.
Did Du Yan turn these disciples into mummies? But... why? Aren't these disciples of the Evil Spirit Hall? Why did Du Yan kill his own disciples? Isn't this too bizarre?
"Why?" Zhong Qiang couldn't help but ask.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Maybe it has something to do with the secret method he used." Jiang Ming said calmly: "That person used some secret method to forcefully break through his own bottleneck, and with the help of some external force, he strengthened his physical strength. It is estimated that he absorbed the flesh and blood of these disciples to boost his strength."
"If I'm not mistaken, he ambushed us there, most likely because he wanted to kill us and absorb our flesh and blood to strengthen his strength again."
As soon as these words were spoken, the disciples of Xu Qian Sect suddenly felt their scalps tingling.
In other words, once Jiang Ming loses the duel, they will turn into nutrients for Du Yan and replenish the opponent's cultivation?
What's the difference between this and evil cultivation? !
What's even more terrifying is that this kind of cultivation method, which turns others into mummies, has violated the rules set by the Righteous Alliance! "Aren't you afraid that what the Evil Spirit Hall has done will be known?!" someone said righteously.
“Who would know?”
At this time, Jiang Ming stood up and said, "Except for those of us who have come in, no one knows what is going on inside this ruin. Who would know who killed which faction's people?"
Hearing this, the disciples of Xu Qian Sect felt a chill down their spines.
This is completely taking advantage of the rules of the ruins and keeping the people here like poultry!
"Fortunately, the evil cultivator is dead. After we get out, we must tell the sect leader and let the Righteous Alliance teach the Evil Spirit Hall a lesson!"
"That's right, this evil sect should have died long ago!"
"Then everyone will go together to defeat the Evil Spirit Temple!"
Everyone was talking at once, except Jiang Ming.
This scene, for some reason, brought back some memories of his past.
Ten thousand years ago, when they discovered the evil sect's activities, they also organized everyone to go and fight against it.
It’s a pity that in the end it was only a narrow victory.
And now, these young generations also have the same passion and enthusiasm as they did back then, but the existence they are facing is something that perhaps even they themselves don’t know what kind of existence it is.
"This scene is really similar." Jiang Ming thought to himself.
At the beginning, he was not at the Tribulation Stage.
The person he was facing had already stepped half a foot into the realm of True Immortality. If he hadn't broken through at the last critical moment, the outcome would have been hard to predict.
Now, he was also certain that the person behind Du Yan was no ordinary person. If he didn't stop him, the tragedy would undoubtedly happen again.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ming sighed and walked towards the ancient tree.
