Chapter 99: A Great Harvest of the Martial God's Corpses
Yang Chen collected the remaining pages of the notebook. He could discuss the situation with Bai Long after returning. Perhaps as a native of the Crystal Core Lord, she could give a definite answer.
"This passage into the Poison Barrier Canyon is really narrow. Luckily, the little white snake can change its size at will, otherwise it would have been stuck and unable to enter."
At this time, Yang Chen could only control the little white snake to move forward in the canyon by changing its size. Once any danger appeared in the canyon, it could only face it alone.
It's just like the foreign guy who likes to drill holes in the wasteland. Although he can complete the task safely almost every time, if he gets stuck once and no one helps, he will surely die.
Yang Chen was already suffering from claustrophobia, but fortunately snakes have the habit of digging holes, so the narrow canyon caused him much less fear.
The most troublesome thing is the green poison barrier. As it continues to infiltrate, a thick layer of green has formed on the uneven stone walls of the canyon. This layer of green is highly poisonous. Once the little white snake is scratched and its skin is broken, it will immediately die of the poison.
Therefore, Yang Chen was very cautious and tried his best to avoid the poisonous edge.
"These crystals formed by the poison barrier are extremely sharp, but I can't tell the grade of this crystal. Maybe it's a very high-level crystal."
The emerald green crystal that seeped out of the canyon made Yang Chen covetous. He thought it was the best material for making highly poisonous weapons.
But in his current state, he has to be very careful when moving, let alone mining, which is extremely troublesome.
"The road ahead is starting to become wider." Yang Chen controlled the little white snake to safely return to the narrow and sharp passage, and appeared in a passage about one meter wide with relatively smooth cliffs on both sides.
The ground also became flat, as if someone had specially excavated it.
"The route after this should be the route opened by human warriors during exploration, and the route I just walked is just a crack in the stone wall."
The feeling of chest tightness disappeared, and Yang Chen's vision became much wider. The surroundings were no longer dark. He caught the light reflected from above the canyon, and the surrounding environment turned light green.
Yang Chen also saw the corpse of the human war god appear on the ground. The corpse was badly damaged and had been exposed there for who knows how long.
He casually collected the corpse and said, "As long as it's not completely rotten, it can still be transformed."
"The green poison barrier here has a certain decaying effect, but for a Martial God, his relatively strong body can resist further decay, thus preserving his body. That's why Lan Feng told me that there are many corpses of Martial Gods in this place. Moreover, the mutant beasts that can enter here must at least have a certain degree of poison resistance, otherwise they will die here. Therefore, after screening, only a few mutant beasts can enter the Poison Barrier Canyon, and the possibility of a Martial God's corpse being eaten is much lower."
Yang Chen could no longer judge their identities based on the rotten appearance of the Martial God's corpse. He also couldn't be sure if one of them was the Martial God of Xuantian Territory.
All I can say is that I collected all the corpses I saw along the way, and after returning, I transformed them into targets under my command one by one. By then, the identity of the God of War would be known.
Along the way, Yang Chen has collected five corpses of the God of War that were quite badly decayed. It was a huge harvest!
Of course, he also missed many corpses of martial gods because they were much older or had lower physical resistance, and they were rotten beyond recognition. Even if such corpses were brought back, they could not be transformed.
Yang Chen came to a more spacious passage.
The distance between the two sides of the passage reaches thirty meters, which is enough space for warriors to duel.
In the spacious space, Yang Chen discovered a stone platform on the ground, on which sat a group of warriors.
"It looks like they died of starvation. There are no signs of fighting on their bodies."
"No, that's not right. There was a certain amount of fighting. This wound has broken the bone!"
Yang Chen discovered that the corpse of one of the Martial Gods had been completely decayed, with a broken leg bone, which looked like it had been bitten by some mutant beast.
"It's probably because the Martial God's defense was broken that the decay of his corpse accelerated."
Yang Chen also found more rotten corpses nearby. Some of them had even turned to ashes, and the bones would be crushed to ashes with just a touch.
"These should be the bones of the Martial Saint. The Martial Saint's body is much weaker than that of the Martial God and is more prone to decay."
Looking at the corpses of warriors who had passed away one by one under the green poisonous barrier, it was really creepy, and it felt like being in hell.
But apart from that, Yang Chen felt the joy of a great harvest.
"Great! At least there are not many corpses of martial gods here that are not too badly decayed, at least ten!"
Yang Chen happily spit out the storage belt from his mouth, and then collected the body of the God of War.
When he came to the decayed body of the God of War again, the broken shin bone made Yang Chen frown.
"Although there aren't many mutant beasts that can enter the Poison Barrier Canyon, the ones that can enter are not only very high-level, but also possess extremely strong toxicity."
"The Sky-Swallowing Python is an exception because it has strong resistance and adaptability. If it were any other mutant beast, they would definitely be resistant to poison, and mutant beasts with poison resistance are more likely to be toxic themselves."
Thinking of this, Yang Chen didn't dare to relax his vigilance at all. He was not prepared to lose the little white snake.
"If you encounter any danger later, you must avoid it first!"
As if by telepathy, the little white snake just thought of this problem and left the spacious passage, and found a narrow pass cutting across it in front of it.
"This is a huge cut!"
The narrow pass in front of us looked like the traces left by a very powerful human warrior who cut through it with a high-level weapon.
That is at least a level that can only be achieved by an existence that surpasses the God of War!
Yang Chen's gaze then moved away from the smooth, knife-cut stone wall of the pass and looked towards the dark cave opposite.
In the pitch-black cave, colorful lights kept flashing. They were the corpses of seven war gods. Perhaps they had died not long ago, and the energy fluctuations from their lifetime were still spreading on them.
"Seven corpses of Martial Gods! And they are corpses of Martial Gods with different auras!"
Yang Chen was immediately excited. Every Martial God must possess different martial arts, some even reaching the pinnacle. Harvesting the corpse of a Martial God could not only transform it into units under his command, but he could also collect the Martial God's martial arts.
The spread of powerful martial arts within the territory can also enhance the overall strength of the territory.
Yang Chen almost drooled as he looked at the body of the God of War emitting seven different lights in the dark cave. He longed to take it.
"I vaguely feel that there is an even more powerful aura deep in the black cave, but how do I get in?"
The biggest problem facing Yang Chen is a group of scorpion mutant beasts wandering outside the cave!
