Swordholder

The other Purple Mansion Ancestors took action, breaking open one coffin after another, casually throwing away the skeletons inside, and then taking out the sacred pills!

Upon seeing this, some family patriarchs also quickly stepped forward to open the coffins.

Some of them couldn't be opened, so they were forcibly broken, which was extremely violent.

"Ah, it truly is a top-grade elixir!"

"My God, top-quality black cinnabar!"

"These pills have been imbued with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth; they are so pure!"

······

Immediately, exclamations of surprise rose and fell, everyone was incredibly excited.

Even some clan leaders and patriarchs have started consuming those pills.

boom!

After they swallowed those pills, a roar like a volcanic eruption emanated from their bodies, and a terrifying aura spread from them. The powerful pressure caused Chen Yuan and the others to change their expressions drastically.

"No way, is there really a high-grade elixir here? I didn't put it in the coffin."

Chen Yuan was filled with doubt and confusion.

He and Chen Qingcang did indeed leave some modified pills here.

However, the pills collected by those powerful families now are genuine high-grade pills, and their efficacy and quality are both top-notch.

It wasn't one of his pills that had been forcibly purified.

"Haha, this is a divine medicine! I'm about to be reborn!"

"My cultivation level has been shackled for countless years, yet there are signs of it loosening!"

"Excellent! This is a top-grade elixir!"

······

······

From the dim light, a series of frenzied and excited voices rang out.

Zhu Xin glanced at her grandmother, Zhu Li.

"If we don't go and grab them now, we might not get a single one."

Zhu Li couldn't hold back any longer and immediately flew forward.

"Grandma, be careful!"

Zhu Xin spoke anxiously, feeling uneasy, and hurriedly followed.

Chen Yuan, Li Wei, and Nuomi immediately followed.

In the dim light, coffins were laid out densely, stretching to the very edge of darkness.

This doesn't resemble an underground cave at all, but rather a boundless and vast underground world.

There were thousands upon thousands of coffins, countless in number, stretching to the edge of the dimly lit horizon.

The patriarchs, elders, and even the founders of these aristocratic families seemed to have gone mad, smashing coffins one by one and throwing skeletons haphazardly on the ground.

When Chen Yuan and the others caught up, they discovered that the skeletons on the ground had wisps of green flames floating in their empty eye sockets.

Sounds, like sobs or the groans of an old man, echoed faintly from ahead.

"Oh no, this is a big problem!"

Chen Yuan felt a chill run down his spine, and his unease grew stronger.

Zhu Li also sensed it and immediately dared not go to lift those coffin lids.

"ah······"

Just then, a piercing scream came from ahead.

Just as Kang Changqing was excitedly opening a coffin lid, a rotting hand reached out from inside!

The large hand was a bloody mess, as if it had been scalded by hot oil. The flesh on the surface was like sticky mud, falling off with a splash to reveal the stark white bones. At the same time, the claw-like hand grabbed Kang Changqing's neck and twisted his head off.

Blood spurted from the headless neck!

Kang Changqing, who had previously threatened to kill Chen Yuan's entire family, died here.

"Evergreen!"

Kang Shou's expression changed drastically. He tried to rush over to save her, but it was too late.

When he arrived, Kang Changqing's head was ripped open by a rotting monster, which was sucking his brains!

This scene made Kang Shou tremble violently.

puff!

Almost simultaneously, among the other people who opened their coffins, one person had a bony hand protruding from inside and piercing his chest cavity, tearing it open and spilling out his internal organs.

"Oh no, be careful! Some of these coffins contain powerful evil spirits!"

An ancestor roared fiercely, his eyes wide with fury as he watched his clansmen being killed!

At this moment, another clan leader was caught off guard and his chest cavity was ripped open by the bone hand, and his heart was ripped out!

Then, the heart was placed into a gaping, sinister maw with fangs, where it was chewed and swallowed with a crunching sound, and in the blink of an eye, it was completely eaten clean.

Such scenes are playing out everywhere, and they are extremely bloody.

The originally joyous atmosphere suddenly turned bloody and cruel.

Chen Yuan and the others were dumbfounded. Even with their eyesight, they could vaguely see in the dim space that the arrogant and domineering family heads and high-ranking members had died tragically in front of them.

"roar······"

Just then, from the pitch-black depths ahead, a series of hoarse roars came, accompanied by a chilling aura that swept over them like a tsunami, as if countless evil spirits were awakening.

Immediately afterwards, crimson eyes lit up in the darkness.

rustle······

rustling...

Soon, a flurry of footsteps sounded, followed by countless figures roaring to the sky!

Chen Yuan and the others felt a chill run down their spines. In their sight, they saw countless figures rushing out and pouncing on the clan leaders and the high-ranking members of the aristocratic families. They tore at their bodies, twisted off their heads, and gnawed on them. In the blink of an eye, they had torn their bodies to shreds and devoured them clean.

"It's... a corpse puppet!"

Someone screamed in terror, a deep fear shooting from everyone's tailbone straight to the top of their head!

"Ah ...

Screams rose and fell as the surging corpse puppets instantly engulfed the high-ranking members of the dozen or so aristocratic families in the prefectural city.

"Oh my god, so many...so many!"

Li Wei's eyes widened, and his body trembled.

Thousands upon thousands of rotting corpses burst forth from the darkness.

They moved incredibly fast; some had decaying bodies, and their eyes glowed with a scarlet light.

Some were skeletal remains, with a ball of blood-red flame in their empty eye sockets.

"Damn it!"

Kang Shou, along with the Ling family patriarch, Black Wolf patriarch, Sky Eagle patriarch, and other Purple Mansion beings, all mobilized!

Boom boom boom!

Beams of psionic energy, or flashes of swords, unleashed powerful attacks, shattering large swathes of corpse puppets.

But even more corpse puppets kept pouring out from the depths of darkness.

A wave of unrest, a wave of up!

Even on the ground, the soil loosened, and skeletal hands pierced through the soil, from which skeletons crawled out one by one.

On the walls, there were also evil spirits, like wandering hairs, that transformed into ferocious demons, roaring as they crawled out.

On the ground, the densely packed coffins throbbed violently. One after another, rotting corpses roared and howled, lifting the coffin lids, reaching out their decaying hands, crawling straight out, emitting sharp screechs, and frantically rushing towards Kang Shou and the others.

To Chen Yuan and Li Wei, the scene resembled a zombie apocalypse, terrifying beyond measure.

A thick aura of death, bloodlust, and decay permeated the underground space, making it difficult for Chen Yuan and the others to breathe, their chests feeling like they were about to explode.

"Run!"

Chen Yuan was the first to react, and he grabbed Nuomi and ran backward.

He cannot fly; he cannot fly up into this deep pit.

The only option is to run towards the exit of the Evil Burial Mountain.

"Walk!"

Zhu Li's expression changed drastically. She grabbed Zhu Xin and tried to fly out of the deep pit!

The other beings at the Purple Mansion Realm were in the same boat, their eyes filled with extreme terror. They no longer wanted to fight and instead tried to fly upwards towards the top of the pit.

hum!

Just then, the corpse-nurturing gourd floating in the deep pit hummed, and purple-robed figures emerged from the gourd.

These figures had rotting faces, but fangs at the corners of their mouths and a head full of dry hair, with only a few strands remaining.

As soon as they appeared, they went straight towards Zhu Li, Kang Shou, and the others.

"A Heavenly-level Corpse Puppet!"

Upon seeing these figures in purple robes, Zhu Li's expression changed drastically, and she grabbed Zhu Xin and flew downwards.

"What level is a Heavenly-level Corpse Puppet?"

Zhu Xin asked, her face full of confusion.

"Corresponds to the Purple Mansion Realm!"

Zhu Li spoke anxiously, her expression extremely grave.

"Wh...what?"

Zhu Xin's expression suddenly changed, and she hurriedly looked up.

There were at least dozens of those purple figures!

"Oh my god!"

Zhu Xin felt a chill run down her spine.

This is terrifying.

"what!"

At this moment, a shrill scream rang out. Kang Shou was surrounded and attacked by more than a dozen purple-robed figures. In just a few breaths, his body was torn to pieces by the purple-robed figures, and his head was smashed open!

Following closely behind, a dozen or so beings at the Purple Mansion Realm, including the Ling Family Ancestor, the Sky Eagle Clan Ancestor, and the Black Wolf Clan Ancestor, were all unable to escape. They were surrounded and torn to pieces by dozens of purple-robed, fanged figures!

This scene left the rest of them speechless, their scalps tingling with shock!

The dozen or so Purple Mansion True Persons are the key to those families being able to reach the Earth Phase level!

Now, they've all died here!

That would be a huge loss.

For those aristocratic families, this was a huge disaster!

Holy crap!

Chen Yuan, who was flying underground, was also blocked by countless corpse puppets.

As they broke through, they kept their eyes on the top of the pit.

Upon learning that the once arrogant Master Zifu had been torn to pieces by those evil spirits, he was overjoyed!

"Haha, damn it, good riddance!"

Li Wei exclaimed excitedly, "So they used to threaten to kill our Chen family all the time? Damn it, look what happened, they're the ones who died first!"

Chen Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief, but in an instant, his expression became even more solemn.

As if by accident, they opened the gates of hell and unleashed a terrifying and malevolent spirit!

If these things escape...

Wouldn't that cause a catastrophe?

Evil spirits and calamities, darkness and chaos!

Isn't that exactly what this scene is meant to describe?
