As one skeleton after another was thrown up, Lu Zhu, who was sitting on the side watching, gradually changed his expression from fear to numbness.
In the end, he had completely adapted, and even came up and moved the white skeleton outward to make it easier for Xiang Sheng to jump out.
About half an hour later, all the bodies were brought to the surface.
Xiang Sheng didn't dare to waste time and continued to work.
She first gathered up all the blankets on the floor, and then placed most of the bones at the exit, making an escape gesture, and then sprinkled dust evenly on them.
Lu Zhu watched for a moment, immediately understood, and started to make arrangements as well.
The two of them worked for half a day and finally arranged the house.
Just then, it suddenly became extremely noisy outside the house.
"What's going on?"
Lu Zhu's expression changed slightly. Could it be that Sister Shen was right again? Would anyone dare to continue the attack in the city?
Aren’t they afraid of death?
After a brief hesitation, he moved closer to the door formation, hoping to hear more clearly, when suddenly—
"roar!!"
The sudden roar was so close, as if it was only separated by a door. Lu Zhu was so frightened that his face suddenly changed and he crawled back to Xiang Sheng.
At this moment, several panicked wandering cultivators passed by the door, and their conversation came into the room very clearly.
"Corpse puppet!"
"It's the corpse puppets that are slaughtering the city!"
"Run away, run away from the city!"
"ah!!"
“…”
"Sister, did you hear that?" Lu Zhu tried her best to lower her voice.
"I'm not deaf, so I heard it."
Xiang Sheng grabbed a handful of sand and filled in the gaps, his voice as normal: "The formation you set up has a soundproofing effect, so there's no need to control your voice."
"But……"
Just as Lu Zhu opened his mouth, he saw the outermost circle of light surrounding the door suddenly flicker, accompanied by bursts of roars. He immediately became nervous, "The corpse puppet has discovered us! Sister Shen, let's hide quickly!"
"No rush."
As Xiang Sheng spoke, she covered up the last few footprints on the ground. She looked up and happened to see the outermost layer of the formation covering the door shattered. She glanced at Lu Zhu.
Lu Zhu's face was filled with shame, and he wished he could crawl into the ground.
He also didn't expect that the formation plate left by the royal family could only last less than ten breaths under the attack of the corpse puppet.
Xiang Sheng pursed his lips slightly, said nothing more, and pulled Lu Zhu into the underground secret room. Taking advantage of the brief gap in the air, he scattered the last handful of sand.
The next moment, the chamber floor closed tightly. The sand fell, covering up the last traces of their footprints.
The room suddenly became quiet, but it didn't last long. Following a loud bang, dense footsteps were heard from above.
Lu Zhu consciously covered his mouth and nose, not daring to breathe.
Xiang Sheng's face remained calm, but doubts arose in his heart.
The footsteps above sounded uniform and unisoned, unlike the gait of a zombie. Furthermore, the booming sound that shattered two formations in succession also didn't sound like a zombie.
Sure enough, not long after, a familiar voice of shock came from above.
"Brother, these corpses..."
"They are all ancient cultivators. Their storage rings have decayed and collapsed, but their bodies are still able to survive. The cultivation base of these people is at least at the Nascent Soul stage..."
Xiang Sheng's eyes narrowed immediately, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
These are the voices of Xiang Hongyu and Shu Gaoming.
Xiang Sheng was just surprised, but the moment Lu Zhu heard the voice, he fell into a trance.
He didn't know Xiang Hongyu, but Shu Gaoming had a unique voice and was very easy to identify.
He always felt that the Chiyan Sect was excessive by standing idly by while the Lu Kingdom was surrounded by enemies, but he didn't expect... he was still too naive.
These so-called reputable and upright sects work together with corpse puppets, killing people and stealing treasures everywhere. What's the difference between them and the demonic sects?!
Lu Zhu suddenly had a very similar thought to Xiang Hongyu.
Meanwhile, the conversation on the surface continued.
"Brother, we've looked everywhere, and all the storage rings are rotten."
When Xiang Hongyu finished his inspection and came to report, Yuan Zhong immediately threw his sleeves and said, "Bad luck."
Shu Gaoming was not surprised. He nodded and said, "This Xuanwang City has been silent for too long. Even the best treasures cannot withstand the erosion of time. It is normal that there is no harvest."
As he spoke, Shu Gaoming glanced at the dusty room, and his brows suddenly furrowed slightly.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Xiang Hongyu immediately asked.
"Nothing, I just feel something is amiss. Although the concealment formation outside has the flaw of being set up for too long, it seems too fragile."
Shu Gaoming shook his head and was about to go to the inner room to check, when suddenly——
boom!
There was a deafening roar from the North City, and the earth shook.
Lu Zhu immediately felt his blood vessels warm up slightly. He subconsciously looked towards the north wall and felt an inexplicable sensation in his heart.
The ancestral land has been opened.
"Brother, was the blood sacrifice formation successful?"
"This fellow Xue Yunzi actually disregarded the agreement and detonated the blood sacrifice formation prematurely to open the entrance to the ancestral land?!"
"This is too much, Senior Brother. There is no time to lose. Let's go over there quickly and don't let him get the upper hand."
Shu Gaoming's face turned slightly cold, "Let's go!"
As soon as the words fell, the people in the room instantly turned into a mysterious light and flew out of the earthen building.
Lu Zhu was sweating profusely from holding his breath. When he heard that there was no movement above, he immediately started to breathe heavily. Just as he was about to speak, Xiang Sheng covered his mouth and nose and pointed upwards.
When Lu Zhu heard a few roars from the corpse puppets, he immediately nodded to show that he understood.
After a while, the wandering corpse puppets were all killed by the formation, and the entire earth building fell into deathly silence.
