Shi Ji ignored him and rode the Nine Cauldrons towards the depths of the valley.

"court death."

When the old man in green robes saw that Shi Ji had not obeyed his order to leave, he became furious and raised his right hand to strike Shi Ji.

His palm strike was extremely powerful, and it instantly struck Shi Ji.

But at this moment, Shi Ji unleashed a technique to reverse the tide.

Once the Reversal of Fortune technique was activated, the battlefield between Shi Ji and the green-robed elder instantly changed.

The old man in green robes punched the spot where Shi Ji had been standing.

With a dull thud, his fist missed its mark.

But Shiji had long since vanished without a trace.

"What a bizarre supernatural power."

The old man in green squinted as he spoke, a sinister glint in his eyes and a chilling killing intent on his lips, before quickly darting into the valley.

After entering the depths of the valley, Shi Ji and the Demon Lord finally saw the enormous tomb.

"Whose tomb is this?" Shi Ji asked in surprise.

He looked toward the tomb chamber and saw that there were sealing talismans pasted on the top of the chamber.

Those sealing talisman papers are all very special.

If we can break these sealing talismans, we might be able to open that tomb.

The demon lord said, "There are restrictions there, and we can't break these sealing talismans for the time being!"

Shi Ji said, "In that case, let's leave this place first!"

The demon lord nodded in agreement.

He and Shi Ji left.

half a month later.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord arrived at an ancient forest, where the spiritual energy was abundant, and Shi Ji sensed a peculiar fluctuation permeating the area.

He tried to use his mental energy to penetrate the area of ​​that strange fluctuation, hoping to figure out what that strange fluctuation was, but no matter how hard Shi Ji tried, his mental energy could not penetrate it.

This puzzled Shi Ji. Could those strange fluctuations be a formation?
An idea suddenly flashed through Shi Ji's mind, so he hurriedly searched everywhere for an array master to break the array. However, Shi Ji searched for many days but could not find a suitable array master.

In the end, Shi Ji gave up the idea of ​​continuing to search for the array masters. Anyway, those people had already escaped, and she no longer needed to worry about being hunted down.

He summoned the demon lord and asked, "Can you tell what kind of formation this is?"

"I'm not quite sure. The array patterns here are very strange. They not only contain the power of curses, but also a mixture of multiple powerful curses. There are even some ancient array patterns that exude a decaying aura, as if they are arrays left over from the ancient times!" the Demon Lord said.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji raised an eyebrow.

The array patterns here are indeed somewhat strange.

Shi Ji decided to study these array patterns carefully first.

He took out a piece of stone, cut it into several pieces, and then threw the pieces into the array pattern pile. After that, he threw in the remaining stone as well.

Next, Shi Ji began to arrange a large number of array patterns, placing one at regular intervals.

After Shi Ji finished setting up the array patterns, the entire array pattern emitted a faint demonic light. These demonic lights intertwined to form a pattern that looked like some kind of writing.

Shi Ji took out a pen and wrote a lot of things on those patterns.

He wrote more than 2,400 symbols and imprinted them all on a stone tablet.

Then, Shi Ji took out nine giant bronze coffins, each containing a corpse.

Nine tripods suppress heaven and earth.

Shi Ji opened the nine giant bronze coffins and took out the corpses one by one.

When these bodies were dug up, they were all shriveled and skin and bones.

Moreover, their physical bodies were destroyed, only their heads remained intact.

Shi Ji then refined these corpses.

His cultivation level improved significantly once again.

Although he did not break through to a higher realm, his combat power doubled, and his physical body also underwent a transformation. This was what truly made Shi Ji happy.

After all, breaking through to his level is extremely difficult, but he gained a huge boost after devouring these corpses.

However, as his cultivation level improved, these corpses became less and less helpful to him.

Once all these corpses are consumed, it won't be easy to devour them again.

Therefore, such an opportunity is extremely rare.

Next, Shi Ji devoured more than a dozen quasi-emperor level zombies.

His cultivation level reached the peak of the sixth level of the Emperor Realm.

After that, Shiji continued her seclusion and cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, more than two years have passed.

Shiji has left the pass.

The Demon Lord's injuries have mostly healed, but his cultivation level has yet to recover.

Shi Ji did not urge the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord's injuries were too severe. Even after consuming a large amount of elixirs and medicines, it would take a long time for him to fully recover his cultivation.

"Let's go back and see how that woman is doing!" Shi Ji said.

The Demon Lord nodded slightly and followed Shi Ji as they flew away quickly.

Even after Shi Ji left, the people outside the valley still did not retreat.

They have been guarding that tomb ever since; their goal is to protect what's inside.

“That kid should be gone by now! I bet he’s already discovered the secret of that tomb,” one of the monks said.

"Hehe, who cares? When our people come back, we can divide up the treasures in that tomb!" the others chimed in.

They were not worried that Shiji would steal their treasure.

Because these monks simply did not believe that Shi Ji could break through the tomb's defenses.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord arrived at the edge of the mountain range. Looking into the distance, Shi Ji couldn't help but frown.

The tomb was still shrouded in a hazy mist, which swirled among the mountains and forests, making it difficult to see what was inside.

Shi Ji summoned the Eight Trigrams Furnace and suspended it high in the sky. The Eight Trigrams Furnace spewed powerful flames, while Shi Ji stepped into the mountain forest.

After entering the mountains, he walked deeper into the rugged mountain path. Along the way, Shi Ji encountered many dangers, but with his powerful cultivation, he easily avoided them all and finally arrived at the tomb.

Shi Ji stopped and looked at the tomb.

The tomb was enormous, surrounded by numerous array patterns, clearly designed to protect it from attack.

Even so, Shiji still sensed a terrifying aura of death from the grave.

Shi Ji held the stone sword and slashed fiercely. With a clang, the stone sword struck the light screen formed by the array patterns.

Instantly, the array patterns began to vibrate violently.

"Huh?" Shi Ji looked surprised.

That sword strike he just used was enough to kill the Great Emperor.

However, this sword strike was blocked by the array patterns.

This array pattern is truly powerful; even a Great Emperor-level expert couldn't overcome it. What kind of array pattern is this?
Shi Ji felt that this array pattern was definitely not simple.

"Buzz—" Just then, the array patterns suddenly began to activate.

In an instant, an overwhelming pressure was released from the array patterns, sweeping towards Shi Ji like a surging tide, and Shi Ji's face turned deathly pale.

These array patterns seem to possess the power to imprison the void.

Shi Ji wanted to break free and escape this predicament.

However, when the array patterns fully activated, an overwhelming force enveloped Shi Ji, rendering him unable to move, as if bound by invisible shackles.

Immediately afterwards, the array patterns were activated, and a series of sharp attacks blasted towards Shi Ji.

Shi Ji's body slammed hard into the array patterns.

He was thrown back by the force of the impact, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Shi Ji's expression was ashen.

He tried to mobilize the magic power within his body, but to his horror, he discovered that his magic power seemed to be suppressed by an invisible force and could not be mobilized at all. Clearly, the laws of this place were restricting his magic power.

Shi Ji realized that this formation was no ordinary thing.

He quickly put away the Eight Trigrams Furnace and used the Seven Steps of the Reverse Dragon to try and escape the formation's coverage area as fast as possible. Unfortunately, he was still a fraction too slow.

Three times in a row, he was violently blasted away by the array patterns.

The attacks from these array patterns are terrifying and incredibly powerful.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, they would probably be dead beyond any doubt by now, and their remains would be impossible to find.

Fortunately, Shi Ji's physical body was strong enough that she managed to withstand it.

Outside, the cultivators guarding the mountain range were overjoyed to see Shi Ji suffer such a severe injury.

They had been waiting for Shi Ji to fall for far too long.

At this moment, they wished Shi Ji would be killed immediately.

"Young master, should we go out and help?" a cultivator asked.

"No need, he's doomed," another old cultivator said calmly.

Upon hearing the old monk's words, the others nodded in agreement.

Indeed, given the current situation, Shi Ji is doomed.

They began to await Shi Ji's death.

These people have even begun discussing how to divide the wealth in Shiji's storage ring.

If they could acquire that wealth, each of them would obtain a priceless treasure. These treasures held an irresistible allure for them.

Meanwhile, Shi Ji was in dire straits. He was repeatedly blasted away by the array patterns, suffering severe injuries.

Shi Ji felt as if her internal organs had shifted, causing unbearable pain and a feeling of dizziness.

"This array contains a deadly poison!"

The Demon Lord's voice rang out. It turned out that a deadly poison was hidden within this great formation, but fortunately, Shi Ji possessed a powerful antidote.

Otherwise, he would have died long ago.

"These deadly poisons can corrode a cultivator's blood, life essence, and soul!" the Demon Lord added.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji's expression changed drastically. A deadly poison that could corrode both flesh and soul?

what does this mean?
Does this mean that one's own flesh and blood will be gradually corroded away by the deadly poison?
Although he had cultivated the Undying Divine Body, which allowed him to resist a certain degree of poison.

However, if one's own flesh and blood were completely contaminated by the poison, that would be an extremely troublesome matter.

After all, his own Undying Divine Body was incredibly powerful.

However, if it is exposed to a highly toxic substance, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

Shi Ji knew that she could not sit idly by and wait for her death.

He quickly took out the Heaven-Mending Pill and swallowed it.

Then he sat cross-legged on the ground, circulated his magic power, and used the medicinal power of the Heaven-Mending Pill to restore his depleted essence, blood, and lifespan.

This is a high-stakes gamble, with one's own life at stake.

If he loses, he will be doomed and plunged into an endless abyss.

But having chosen this path, we cannot be afraid or back down.

This is what a real man does.

"Boy, you can't escape. You must die today!"

A cold laugh rang out, and four terrifying beings flew out of the tomb; they were the cultivators who had ambushed Shi Ji earlier.

Neither the black-clad, masked cultivator nor the one who had appeared in Shi Ji's mind earlier showed up. Clearly, they were also observing the situation in secret and were unwilling to get involved easily.

This might be the best outcome for them.

"What a small world! I never expected to run into you here," Shi Ji sneered.

Back then, Shi Ji engaged in a thrilling battle with these cultivators, with both sides displaying their wits and courage, and each showcasing their unique abilities.

Shi Ji originally thought she might be able to escape their pursuit, but who would have thought that these guys had set up this trap in advance, just waiting for her to walk into it.

"Hehe, you lowly slave, today I'll send you on your way!"

A powerful figure at the Quasi-Immortal realm said with a sinister grin.

This cultivator was a peak Quasi-Immortal, possessing incredibly powerful methods and mastering numerous powerful secret techniques and divine abilities.

The two female cultivators were also quasi-immortal level experts. They didn't look particularly old, but their combat power was astonishing.

Shi Ji guessed that the two female cultivators were most likely cultivators from some ancient clan.

For example, certain ancient forces are often able to cultivate powerful cultivators. These cultivators generally possess ancient traditions.

Those cultivators who have mastered ancient traditions often possess many incredible secret techniques and methods.

For example, this kind of curse technique is part of this ancient tradition.

Shi Ji said coldly, "I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Ji swung her right fist and delivered a heavy blow to the quasi-immortal level cultivator.

With a crisp sound of bones cracking, the chest of the quasi-immortal cultivator instantly caved in.

Shi Ji's iron fist, imbued with terrifying power, pierced the man's chest like a cannonball. Immediately afterward, a tremendous force erupted, blasting the man's body away.

Upon seeing this, the others were immediately enraged and let out a deafening roar.

Like a pack of crazed wild beasts, they rushed towards Shi Ji, trying to surround him and launch an attack.

"Hmph, you bunch of trash dare to fight me? You're really asking for trouble, you don't know what's good for you!"

Shi Ji's lips curled into a mocking smile, her gaze sweeping over the others like a sharp blade.

The cultivators trembled violently with anger at Shi Ji's words, their eyes filled with resentment and venom.

"Kill him! Slaughter this arrogant brat!"

The remaining cultivators roared at the top of their lungs, and then they unleashed all sorts of magical treasures, launching a frenzied attack on Shi Ji like a storm.

However, their attacks failed to cause any real damage to Shi Ji. Instead, Shi Ji steadily suppressed them with her superb combat skills and powerful strength.

at this time.

Shi Ji's eyes suddenly lit up slightly, as if she had discovered some treasure. (End of Chapter)
