C419 A fighter from hundreds of years ago
"Formations, black, silver, Yin …"
All of this sounded inconceivable.
However, although he was suspicious, Chu Chen's words did not reveal anything. His face did not reveal a single bit of unnatural expression, he was extremely calm and Guan Xinghai could not see any flaws.
Maybe she misunderstood him.
As for the Nether Soul, Chu Chen had only said that it was meant to cultivate soul force, this, Guan Xinghai did not suspect at all.
Since soul force could kill Nether Soul, naturally it could also devour them. Since Chu Chen was able to refine pills, his soul force was definitely stronger than normal people's. It was not strange for him to cultivate some kind of soul force cultivation technique.
"What do you think about the murder of a desiccated corpse?" Guan Xinghai thought for a moment and asked.
"Other than the mysterious person who killed the disciples of the Heaven Martial Pavilion outside of Nether Ancient Capital, I can't think of a second killer."
Chu Chen had a deep memory now. The person who made the move was someone who appeared and disappeared like a ghost, killing people right in front of everyone's eyes without leaving a single trace. He was definitely not an ordinary person, if his cultivation was truly high, he would directly kill everyone here.
If he was so secretive, he might be worried about something or have some motive.
The most likely scenario was the last guess. Only with a certain goal would he be able to kill people one by one, which would be the same as the actions of the dried corpses.
"The mysterious person?" Guan Xinghai frowned slightly, this was also his guess.
But Sun Ao and Shen Liuyun identified each other as Chu Chen, and even saw the sides of his face, it was exactly the same.
At that time, he couldn't believe it, but he trusted Chu Chen.
But now, after seeing Chu Chen's strange actions, although Chu Chen had explained it all and he believed it, he still harbored a bit of ill will in his heart.
Chu Chen glanced at Guan Xinghai, roughly knowing what he was thinking about. However, he wasn't unhappy about it.
It was understandable that the other party doubted him!
A truly powerful martial artist shouldn't only have an outstanding cultivation, but also a cautious heart. In a world where the strong preyed on the weak, danger lurked everywhere. If one was not careful, one could be tricked at any time.
"I think it's that mysterious person. Also, Sun Ao and Shen Liuyun, these two are not to be trusted." Chu Chen said calmly as he retracted his gaze.
"Why do you say that? Did you discover something? " Guan Xinghai asked, "I have a feeling too, but I don't know what the problem is."
Chu Chen shook his head slightly, "I'm not sure of anything at the moment. I'll say it out when I have enough evidence."
Although Chu Chen knew that what Sun Ao and Shen Liuyun had said was a lie, the result of his observation, did not have any substantial evidence. If he were to tell it, even if Guan Xinghai believed it, the others would not believe it.
If he wanted to tear apart their false masks, that alone was not enough. He needed more evidence.
"Alright!" Guan Xinghai nodded.
"That's right. According to what you said earlier, those golden armored soldiers will appear again tonight. Let's go together and see where they will go."
"Fine, you two are willing to work together. Even if you run into danger on the way, it'll be easier to break through." Chu Chen said truthfully. Just him alone, was definitely not as powerful as Guan Xinghai and the others.
As for whether there would be any treasures, he could take them all for himself if he wanted to. Chu Chen had not thought about all these.
Right now, he was only curious about the reason why someone did not hesitate to expend all their energy to lay down a complicated array formation and create three different types of soldiers, directly heading towards the center of the city.
Along the way, someone set up a checkpoint to block the soldiers.
However, this person probably did not expect that there would be a warrior participating. Otherwise, even the golden-armored soldier would not be able to pass the trial of the Stone Man.
Night came again! After Chu Chen's soul force had advanced, he gathered with Guan Xinghai and the others, and stared at the distant streets, waiting quietly.
In the vicinity were the people of the other forces. After going through the danger of drying corpses and Stone Man, none of them dared to move alone, as they were prepared to follow Chu Chen, Guan Xinghai and the rest.
The fourteen golden-armored soldiers had very strong battle strength. If they encountered any danger, this would be a great safety net.
Meng Shuang, Chou Xing Chi, Lei Yan, and Fang Xue, along with their respective sect's disciples, followed behind the crowd. It was as if they were afraid that Chu Chen would see through them, an unnatural expression on their faces.
They had firmly believed that Chu Chen was the killer, and their words were extremely disrespectful. But now, they had to follow Chu Chen in order to protect themselves, this was undoubtedly very ironic.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the same direction as they quietly waited for the golden armored soldiers to arrive.
Not long after, rumbling sounds like that of thunder rang out from the corner of the street as numerous golden figures appeared. Their auras were cold and filled with an incomparable intent.
"The golden-armored soldier has appeared."
Everyone's expression became excited. Yesterday, six golden armored soldiers were killed by the Stone Man, so there were still fourteen of them left. Although there weren't many of them, every time they stood there, they erupted with Soaring Sky fighting intent.
The golden armor on their bodies looked as if it was forged from gold, and it was suffused with a brilliant golden radiance.
There was a faint tinge of blood-red light mixed within, giving people a feeling of ancientness and majesty, like an ancient War God.
The fourteen golden armored soldiers acted as if they didn't see the crowd, directly passing through and walking towards the center of the city.
"Follow me!"
Everyone followed him and very quickly, they didn't encounter any danger along the way.
At this moment, the golden-armored soldier in front of them suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Everyone's eyes focused. When the golden-armored soldier stopped, something must have happened, could it be that there was an existence stronger than Stone Man?
Chu Chen's heart sank, he immediately looked over, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes, his expression frozen.
A stone bridge!
In front of him, there was an arched bridge that was several hundred feet long.
And Chu Chen's gaze, at this moment, was placed under the stone bridge. There was a canal there, and the water in the canal was black, without a single ripple.
A black canal and an ancient bridge. The scene in front of them made them all feel uneasy.
Since the golden-armored soldier had stopped, he must have realized something.
"This place is …"
Guan Xinghai's eyes changed, he suddenly opened the Storage Ring and took out the map of Nether Ancient Capital, quickly spreading it out.
His gaze continued to sweep across them and then suddenly stopped. He pointed at the map and said, "This is the scenery of the rivers inside the city where Nether Ancient Capital used to exist. If you look any further you will see the Nine Heavens Tower in front of you."
"So the direction that the golden-armored soldiers were headed towards was the Nine Heavens Tower. No wonder, the location of the Nine Heavens Tower is right at the center of the Nether Ancient Capital."
Chu Chen secretly thought, before looking at the golden-armored soldier. Since this was the place where the rivers flowed in the city a few hundred years ago, besides the water being black, there was nothing special about it.
"Look, what's that on the opposite side of the square?" A warrior suddenly shouted, his voice was filled with shock.
When the crowd heard this, they instantly looked over, and their expressions changed.
A corpse!
On the opposite side, there were many corpses. Their faces were no longer visible, and dense Baleful Yin Force was swirling around them.
And beside this corpse, there was something that was reflecting a cold light.
Everyone carefully looked, and the surprise on their faces immediately turned into ecstasy.
"Weapon!"
Beside these corpses, there were many weapons scattered around. Even though it had been several hundred years, they were still emitting a cold light.
It goes without saying what this meant. The weapon was not broken and was still usable.
Moreover, everyone thought of an amazing thing. These corpses might be the warriors from the Danxia Sect.
A few hundred years ago, a change occurred in the Nether Ancient Capital, and in one night, everyone within the entire city died.
The Xi Xia Sect, a large martial cultivation sect located nearby, used all the power of the sect to enter the Nether Ancient Capital.
However, those who were shocked by the incidence of South Spirit Domain that entered or left the Danxia Sect were all dead.
And these corpses could very well be the dead warriors of the Danxia Sect!
This time, the mission of coming to the Nether Ancient Capital and killing Nether Soul was a must! Everyone's true purpose was to find the remnants of the warriors who had died hundreds of years ago.
At this moment, upon seeing these weapons, the eyes of the group of people instantly turned fiery.
"Those with the ability to do so will get what they want. I will be the first to go." One of the warriors couldn't hold it in anymore, he was the first one to move, quickly rushing towards the bridge.
"Swish swish swish!"
At the same time, one figure after another moved.
It was very likely that these weapons were spiritual weapons, or even weapons that surpassed spiritual weapons. After all, the death years ago was not only caused by ordinary warriors, but also by the Danxia Sect's elders and sect master s.
The close-combat weapons of such a character would surely be extraordinary; there was no way he would not be tempted by them.
"It's too rash to rush over like this!"
Chu Chen said, but he did not move, and by his side, Guan Xinghai, Huan Xingran, Lin Dong, and the others did not move either.
In addition, there were also Heavenly Beast Mountain and Fogstone Sect. Since the golden-armored soldiers had stopped, there must be a problem. Although the weapons were tempting, it was not as important as his own life.
Guan Xinghai originally wanted to stop them, but he was a little slow. Just as he was about to speak, there were already many people rushing over.
Their speed was extremely fast. In merely an instant, they had already crossed the bridge. However, right at this moment, a blood-curdling screech rang out, causing the eyes of the crowd to narrow.
The warrior who first arrived at the other side was suddenly grabbed by something as soon as he landed on the ground. His body flew backward.
Shockingly, the place he landed on was the river. With a splash, black water splashed out in all directions.
The warrior struggled to escape, but his expression suddenly froze. His pupils contracted as he looked at his palm in disbelief.
Under the immersion of the black river water, his palms had completely decayed. This terrifying scene had caused him to scream in fear.
There was nothing the crowd could do. The black river water was strange and corrosive. Whoever dared to go through it would end up dead.
In just a blink of an eye, all of the warriors who had fallen into the water disappeared without a trace. Not even their bones were left behind. Everyone who saw this felt a chill run down their backs.
"What attacked him just now?" Everyone was shocked.
"It's those corpses!"
The warriors on the bridges didn't dare to take a single step forward. They all started to retreat.
