"I'm done, I'm done, I'm exhausted." Cheng Batian, who was in battle, suddenly stopped and waved his hand. He and Ren Pingsheng had been battling for an hour, but there was still no clear outcome. This left him both shocked and impressed. A person with lower cultivation than him could be so strong.
"Not going to fight anymore? Then I'll take my leave." Ren Pingsheng said with a smile. It seemed he wasn't very tired after such a long battle. With a flash of his figure, he left, heading in the direction of the Inheritance Tower.
"Hey, you can't just leave like that!" Cheng Batian muttered unhappily and quickly followed.
At this time, the fighting at the Inheritance Tower was almost over. All the Inheritance Seeds had been claimed, and the King's Artifacts had also found their owners. The reason they hadn't left yet was that the Light Gate formed by one hundred and eight Inheritance Towers had not dissipated, which sparked their curiosity.
"Oh, you're back. Looks like you had a fight; otherwise, that guy wouldn't be so quiet," Situ Kong said with a smile upon seeing Ren Pingsheng.
"Not bad! You all haven't left yet; it seems you're all eyeing this Light Gate?" Ren Pingsheng asked as he looked at the distant Light Gate.
"Yes, we all want to know where this Light Gate leads. We were just waiting for you two to return before preparing to go in. What do you think?"
"Then let's hurry in. The Sword King Tomb is about to close; we might not have much time left inside. If there are any opportunities, it would be a shame to miss them."
"Alright, let's go." Situ Kong said and walked toward the Light Gate. Yun Xingzi's group followed suit. As for the remaining few martial artists, their thoughts varied. Those who had already obtained Inheritance Seeds hesitated; they didn't want to take any risks anymore. Those who hadn't received any Heritage were still restless and prepared to take a chance.
Soon, these martial artists split into two groups: one group waited for the Sword King Tomb to close while the other entered the Light Gate, hoping for another opportunity.
"What is this place?" The group that entered the Light Gate walked a short distance before finding themselves in a vast space filled with piles of corpses. Most of them were Demon Beasts, along with some strange-looking creatures resembling demons. Each corpse exuded a terrifying aura, but since it was scattered, they could still hold on.
If even one living Demon Beast glanced at them, they would likely collapse from fear.
"There must be tens of thousands of corpses here; this aura is at least equivalent to a King-Level Expert, and some are even stronger," Yun Xingzi exclaimed with a pale face. Coming from a major sect like Xuanjian Sect, his experience was extraordinary, and others believed what he said.
"Sigh... what on earth happened here to have so many corpses? To gather this many corpses requires terrifying cultivation," Cheng Batian murmured. Although he was arrogant, he held great respect for those with immense power.
"I don't know; there's only a small portion of cultivation here that can't be determined. To achieve this level of destruction, they must at least be Emperor-Level Experts!"
"Emperor-Level Experts? Are they really legendary beings?" Ren Pingsheng said softly upon hearing this. Meanwhile, on another side, he was conversing with the Demon Emperor.
"Kid, this is quite something; there are quite a few Emperor-Level Expert auras here. This person must have ulterior motives," the Demon Emperor muttered in astonishment.
"What's the purpose of hiding these Corpse here?"
"Hehe, kid, you've run into big trouble this time. You should leave quickly. There’s probably a terrifying creature in this space, but it should be severely injured. These Corpse are just here to provide it with energy to recover."
"These are just for recovery?" Ren Pingsheng said, somewhat shocked.
"Yes, some powerful beings suffer from special injuries. Elixir has no effect on them, or the required Elixir has already become extinct. They will resort to some special methods for healing. These Corpse can provide powerful energy and vitality, so recovering from injuries is not impossible. But with this many Corpse, the being below must be at least an Emperor-Level Expert, if not stronger," Demon Emperor said, his tone trembling slightly.
Ren Pingsheng stared blankly at the endless piles of Corpse. He wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but he even faintly heard a strong heartbeat echoing, thumping 'bang' 'bang'.
"However, you can take this opportunity to collect some Corpse. These are all level five or even six Demon Beast Corpse, full of treasures. Once you go outside, it will be extremely difficult to obtain such Corpse. These Demon Beast have already taken form and their strength is terrifying."
This thought crossed not only Demon Emperor's mind but also many of the martial artists who entered. They didn't know why there were so many Corpse here, but they knew these Corpse were absolutely priceless; one could fetch an astronomical price outside.
At that moment, their eyes turned red; this was no less valuable than the Inheritance Seed! While the Inheritance Seed might bring strength, these things brought endless wealth. With boundless wealth, what couldn't be obtained? Increasing one's cultivation would be an easy task.
"Get to work!" Many martial artists were already excitedly rushing down, targeting those Demon Beast's Corpse.
"Kid, you should also get to work; there may not be much time left. Take as much as you can. If there's danger, I'll notify you in advance," Demon Emperor reminded.
Ren Pingsheng nodded and walked up to the pile of Corpse. Here, level five Demon Beast were everywhere, occasionally mixed with some level six ones. Without hesitation, he used his Spatial Ring, which had enough space, and didn’t bother to sort through them. All around him, those Corpse were swiftly entering the Spatial Ring.
In just a few breaths, nearly a hundred Demon Beast Corpse had filled the Spatial Ring. His movements didn't stop; the pile of Corpse before him showed little change.
Others were astonished by Ren Pingsheng's speed and recklessness. Unfortunately, most of them only had a Spatial Bracelet, and even the best ones only had a hundred cubic units of space; they could carry only a few.
But Ren Pingsheng had two Spatial Ring. The high-quality one obtained from the Ancient Lan Divine Art Heritage space had ten thousand cubic units of space. Although the one received from Demon Emperor was only mid-grade, it still had three thousand cubic units of space. This was more than enough for him.
About five minutes later, the pile of corpses finally visibly decreased. These ten or so martial artists might not have collected much individually, but together it was a considerable amount. Judging by the speed of Yun Xingzi and Situ Kong, they likely also had a Spatial Ring. Adding in Ren Pingsheng, that was already quite a lot.
"Kid, hurry up and escape! The presence here has sensed something; it’s likely to wake up soon. If you're late, it will be dangerous," Demon Emperor suddenly shouted urgently.
"This place is dangerous; run quickly!" Ren Pingsheng yelled loudly and turned to run without looking back, leaving others stunned.
The first to react was Situ Kong. Without hesitation, he followed after Ren Pingsheng. He didn’t trust him much; rather, he sensed the taste of death just as soon as Ren Pingsheng finished speaking. This was an instinct honed from battling continuously for a year.
The five masters of the Five Major Forces also reacted. In their view, Ren Pingsheng would not deceive them. After all, with so many Corpses, it was impossible to collect them all. The only explanation was that there was indeed danger, and in the midst of their movements, they operated at their utmost.
"Danger?" Some other martial artists were taken aback for a moment, looking around, and it could be said that everything was calm. They couldn't help but sneer inwardly, thinking that Ren Pingsheng was just toying with them, and continued to lower their heads to search for powerful Demon Beast Corpses. Although the other martial artists who entered with the Five Major Forces also received warnings, many hesitated. Such temptation was not something everyone could easily ignore.
Just a breath or two of hesitation caused them to lose their last chance to escape. At the moment when Ren Pingsheng and a few others left Corpse Mountain and entered the passage, the entire space suddenly shook as if everything had come to a halt. The martial artists still at Corpse Mountain Surroundings were frozen in place, with their greedy and excited expressions still clearly visible.
"Bang..." Then, more than a dozen martial artists suddenly shattered like broken glass into fragments. Only a pile of minced flesh remained, and the spurting blood quickly merged into Corpse Mountain. Their Spatial Bracelets also shattered, and the Demon Beast Corpses inside were once again piled onto the corpse mountain.
In the passage, including Ren Pingsheng, seven martial artists instantly recovered. When they turned back, they happened to see the bloody scene from just moments ago; their expressions were as grim as could be. Looking at the pile of Corpses was like staring at Demons; they dared not linger and hurriedly passed through the Light Gate to leave.
"Thank you this time, Ren Pingsheng. Otherwise, we might have been in real danger," Yun Xingzi and a few others expressed their gratitude to Ren Pingsheng at the exit of Sword King Tomb.
After coming out of the Light Gate, they did not delay any further; there was nothing left in Sword King Tomb, and it was time to leave. Their main concern was whether any existence from within the Light Gate would come out. So it was better to leave quickly.
"Hehe, it was just a small effort. Besides, I only sensed danger at that moment; I wasn't completely sure. That you managed to escape is simply because you made the right choice; there's no need to thank me," Ren Pingsheng said with a smile while also finding an excuse to cover up how he sensed the danger.
"Regardless, we must thank you. If there’s anything we can help you with in the future, just let us know. Let's go!" They stepped onto the exit simultaneously. After staying in Sword King Tomb for half a month, they finally left.
In a daze, when they emerged again, they were already outside Sword King Tomb.
"Kid, be careful; someone wants to kill you. Just now, six people locked onto you in an instant, and the lowest among them is a Supreme Expert," Demon Emperor said in a rather serious tone.
