Shrouding the Sky: The System Arrived Thirty Years Early

On Mars, Crocodile Ancestor reached out to grab the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin, but his fingers shattered, and he could only watch helplessly as the nine dragon corpses pulled the ancient coffin into the ancient star road.

"roar!"

The roar tore through the sky and split the earth, the surging demonic energy boiled, and the entire Mars trembled, as if it had transformed into a demon kingdom.

Crocodile Ancestor was furious. He was just a hair's breadth away from completely taking over the young man's body, but in the end, he failed because of the strange bronze coffin.

Fortunately, the divine embryo successfully parasitized the other party, and could subtly influence their thinking, making it only a matter of time before it successfully possessed them.

Luo Qianqiu never expected that his outstanding performance would arouse the covetousness of an ancient demon, who wanted to seize his body, rather than using it as a temporary dwelling place like Li Xiaoman in the original story.

If it weren't for his strong will, he wouldn't have had time to enter the ancient coffin at the last moment and isolate himself from the Crocodile Ancestor's divine sense.

……

"How is he? Why hasn't he woken up yet?"

"Don't worry, I checked. His pulse and heart rate are normal. He fainted because of excessive exertion, and he will wake up soon."

In a daze, two voices entered Luo Qianqiu's mind, awakening his thoughts. The events that had occurred on Mars flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.

His mind became increasingly active, but when he tried to open his eyes, his eyelids felt as heavy as mountains, making it difficult to open them. His limbs also felt weak and powerless, and even the slightest movement was difficult.

This is a sign of severe overexertion. After a prolonged period of unleashing potential, the body has been operating at an excessive capacity and is no longer able to keep up.

It wasn't apparent before; it was just that his strong willpower forced him to move. But because of the Crocodile Ancestor's divine embryo parasitizing him, his will was focused on resisting the Crocodile Ancestor's divine thoughts, and his body lost control of his will, which is why he fainted.

Soon, as Luo Qianqiu gradually regained consciousness, his powerful will once again took hold, and his physical potential was unleashed.

The feeling of weakness gradually subsided, and strength began to return to my limbs.

Luo Qianqiu's eyelids trembled, and he slowly opened them. The first thing he saw was a thick darkness and the faint light emanating from the phone screen.

Clearly, they were inside the ancient coffin, and they had already set off again.

Luo Qianqiu let out a long breath, his mind finally relaxed. He had escaped the tiger's den and had not died before achieving his goal.

"You're awake!"

Just then, a clear and melodious female voice rang in his ears. Luo Qianqiu turned his head and, relying on his powerful five senses and the faint light from the bronze coffin, he saw the person's appearance clearly.

With delicate features, a graceful figure, and a slender build, she may not be the kind of beauty that captivates at first glance, but she is very pleasing to the eye over time.

"It's you!"

Luo Qianqiu had some recollection of this female classmate; he had once saved her life during a life-or-death escape.

Furthermore, when he was in a daze earlier, he heard two voices, one of which was Lin Jia, and the other was the female classmate in front of him, who was checking his physical condition.

"My name is Qin Ya, and I'm currently pursuing a doctorate in medicine. You fainted because you were severely overworked," the female student introduced herself before explaining to Luo Qianqiu about his fainting.

"However, I didn't expect you to wake up so quickly. Given the extent of your exhaustion, under normal circumstances, you would have been unconscious for at least two days before waking up." Qin Ya's tone was full of shock.

Luo Qianqiu, with her head resting on a backpack, said in a relaxed tone, "My recovery ability has always been quite good."

After saying that, he immediately added, "I also want to thank Dr. Qin for examining me."

Qin Ya shook her head and said, "I should be thanking you. If it weren't for your rescue, I would have died long ago."

"Then we'll cancel each other out, and neither of us will owe the other anything," Luo Qianqiu said with a light laugh, completely at ease.

"Qianqiu, how are you? Is anything bothering you?" Lin Jia stepped forward and asked with concern.

"I'm fine, just a little tired." Luo Qianqiu supported himself slightly with his hands, leaning against the bronze coffin, his voice filled with undisguised exhaustion.

His body had been working overtime for a long time, draining every last bit of strength. Without a strong will, he would have had a hard time waking up, let alone speaking.

Lin Jia had been following Luo Qianqiu since she was twenty-three, for two and a half years now. She had never seen him so weak before, and she felt an unbearable heartache, her eyes reddening.

"Eat something first, then get some rest." Her voice choked with emotion as she took out a bag of bread, tore open the packaging, and held it to Luo Qianqiu's lips.

Luo Qianqiu did not refuse. After fighting for so long and not eating for almost a day, he was already starving.

He quickly finished the bag of bread and drank a few sips of water before he felt alive again, and even his fatigue was greatly relieved.

Only then did Luo Qianqiu have time to look at everyone and discover that there were only fourteen people left.

Two more people have been lost forever on Mars...

However, now is not the time to worry about this. Luo Qianqiu remembered that in the original story, a little divine crocodile sneaked into the bronze coffin and killed someone under the cover of darkness.

If this time bomb isn't defused, anyone but him could be attacked.

Although in this life, because he acted recklessly and killed many small divine crocodiles to replenish the energy of the Five-Colored Altar, the Buddhist artifacts were not nearly drained into scrap metal by the Five-Colored Altar as in the original story, and still possess powerful divine power to this day.

However, people are prone to oversights. Who can guarantee that the Buddhist implements will always be held in one's hand and will not be separated from one's body for even a moment?

He was unharmed, as the Crocodile Ancestor Divine Embryo was inside him. Even if the Buddhist artifact left his hand, the little divine crocodile would not dare to offend him.

But Lin Jia, although the probability of a successful attack is very small, Luo Qianqiu doesn't want to gamble.

Even though the probability of this happening is small, if it does occur, it's a matter of life and death, and there's no way to avoid it.

Luo Qianqiu always adhered to the principle that "one should not allow others to snore beside one's bed."

He would nip in the bud anything or anyone that could potentially endanger him or those around him.

Of course, that's only if he can manage it. As for the divine thoughts that are currently hiding somewhere, he has no intention of provoking them.

Luo Qianqiu scanned the bronze coffin, his powerful will granting him extraordinary senses, and he quickly locked onto a person.

The man leaned against the bronze coffin wall, his face devoid of color, motionless, clearly already dead.

Upon spotting the target, Luo Qianqiu breathed a sigh of relief. After pondering for a moment, he feigned a puzzled "hmm" to attract everyone's attention.

Then, he pointed at the man and said to Ye Fan beside him, "Brother Ye, look at the man next to you, something's wrong with him."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over, and someone next to him even gave the person a push.

Then, something horrifying happened: the man collapsed to the ground with a "thud."

"What happened? I just gave him a light push." ​​The person who pushed him jumped up in fright, backing away repeatedly, while waving his hand to indicate that it had nothing to do with him.

Everyone noticed something was wrong. Even if someone was fast asleep, lying on the ground like that should wake them up.

But the person didn't move at all, like a piece of wood.

Several brave individuals stepped forward to investigate, including Qin Ya, a medical doctoral student who was frequently taken into the operating room by her supervisor to observe or assist, during which time she encountered numerous death cases.

Just as she stepped forward, Qin Ya, using the dim light from her phone, uttered a chilling message.

That person is dead! And it's been quite some time; the blood has long since stopped flowing, and his face is as pale as paper.

Everyone inside the bronze coffin was horrified. They had all entered the coffin together, and they were perfectly fine then, but now they were dead.

Could there be danger inside the bronze coffin, perhaps even a Martian-like supernatural being?!

"A ghost... there's a ghost in the bronze coffin! It killed Liu Chao!" a female classmate screamed, her voice filled with fear.

Just then, Lin Jiawei subtly approached Luo Qianqiu, her hand gripping her phone tightly. Hesitation crossed her face, and her red lips parted slightly as if she wanted to say something, but she ultimately held back.

On the other side, Qin Ya had already started to examine the area. Her gaze instantly locked onto the neck, where there was a clear finger mark, which should be the cause of death—being strangled to death.

But the next moment, her face turned horrified, and she frantically stood up and backed away, shouting, "Be careful! There's something inside Liu Chao! Something is wriggling in his chest!"
