Catching Monsters

Chapter 557 Stunning Beauty
This stunning woman had an oval face, a high nose, and fair skin. She looked to be only about twenty years old. She wore a white dress and placed her hands naturally on her chest.

Even with her eyes closed, one can still see how beautiful she was in life; she was probably one of the most beautiful women in the world.

After all, Xue Qianyi had been a prominent figure in the demonic path for many years. What kind of beautiful women hadn't he seen? How could he easily lose his composure upon seeing a woman?
Xue Qianyi hurriedly shook his head and looked into the coffin again.

Unexpectedly, this stunningly beautiful woman had already opened her eyes at some point. She slowly stretched out her slender, fair hand and reached towards Xue Qianyi.

Xue Qianyi's heart stirred slightly, and he subconsciously reached out and grasped the hand of this stunning woman.

But the next moment, Xue Qianyi sensed something was wrong.

"what!"

A shrill scream echoed throughout the cave, drawing the attention of all the experts who were locked in combat to Xue Qianyi's location.

Qi Xin frowned deeply and said in a deep voice, "When did Xue Qianyi sneak over and open the coffin?!"

"That guy almost beat me to it!"

"Hurry up and attack! Don't let this bastard get the chance to become a saint!"

Seeing this, all the experts were preparing to rush towards Xue Qianyi, but unexpectedly, Xue Qianyi's body was aging at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And soon, it turned into a corpse with only bones and skin remaining.

In no time, Xue Qianyi had turned into this.

Everyone present was completely stunned by what they saw.

Soon, the stunningly beautiful woman slowly rose from the coffin. The moment they saw her face, most people were slightly stunned.

At this moment, a first-grade expert who looked to be in his forties was standing not far from the beautiful woman, who was smiling and extending her beautiful jade feet.

She wasn't wearing shoes; her pair of jade-like feet, so perfect, lightly touched the air as if they were on flat ground.

The expert at this level realized something was wrong and turned to flee, but the woman struck out with her palm, hitting the expert hard on the back. Then, like Xue Qianyi, the expert was quickly drained of his life force and turned into a dried-up corpse by the woman.

In front of this woman, even a dignified first-grade expert had no chance to resist.

“Sacred Realm, Sacred Realm…” Qin Hong’s eyes changed completely when he saw the woman below. He realized that this sacred tomb was probably not the burial place of any saint at all.

On the contrary, it should be the place that seals this woman away.

The woman wanted to use them to escape from this place.

"No wonder, no wonder." Qin Hong finally understood why his magical power was completely sealed upon entering this sacred tomb.

Furthermore, the three golden toads were guarded by so many demonic beasts in such a dangerous place.

Without magical powers, it would be impossible for a normal person to open this door and awaken this woman.

This place is not some so-called sacred tomb, but rather a rumor deliberately spread by ambitious individuals.

Using the fame of the two previous sacred tombs, they promoted this sealed place as a sacred tomb in order to revive the woman.

"Run!" Upon seeing this, Jiang Yun grabbed Xiao Jingzhi's hand without hesitation and turned to run.

However, upon arriving at the exit of this Peach Blossom Spring, they found themselves in a transparent barrier that prevented Jiang Yun and the vulture from breaking through and escaping, no matter what they did.

The woman in mid-air spoke calmly, "This place is sealed, even I cannot leave, so how can you possibly escape?"

"I cannot gather my magic power here. Once I have absorbed all of you, I will be able to completely destroy this seal."

At this moment, many experts rushed to the exit, but even martial arts cultivators like Qiao Chengxuan, who kept bombarding the barrier, were unable to open it.

"This woman has just woken up and her magic power has not yet recovered. Let's all join forces and fight her!" Qi Xin's heart sank, and her eyes turned cold.

"That's right. So what if this woman is a Saint Realm expert? She has just awakened and has been sealed here for many years. If we join forces, we might not be without a fighting chance!"

With a faint smile on her face, the woman suddenly rushed over, grabbed a first-grade expert in the crowd whom Jiang Yun did not recognize, flew into the air, and instantly began to absorb the man's essence and magical power.

The person struggled in mid-air but could not escape.

Not long after, the woman casually threw away the man's mummified body, and then charged towards the crowd.

The faces of everyone present turned grim, and they were ready to fight this woman!

Jiang Yun slowly took out the black talisman.

For now, we can only test the power of this black talisman.

Soon, Jiang Yun poured all his magic power into the black talisman, and instantly, the black talisman trembled slightly.

Jiang Yun's expression changed slightly as he realized something. The black talisman was connected to the nexus of the entire seal. In an instant, eight strange red chains descended from the rock wall above, tightly binding the woman's limbs, neck, and abdomen.

The woman was also surprised to see that someone could connect to the sealing array.

It should be noted that this sealing formation was built by the Ten Immortals, who themselves sealed themselves here for a thousand years.

Despite being a Saint Realm expert, the woman was unable to regain her true strength due to the powerful chains. No matter how much she struggled, she could not break free from their confinement.

Soon, the coffin on the ground slowly flew up and flew towards the woman, intending to reseal and imprison her in the coffin.

"Shifang! I have been imprisoned here by you for a thousand years. Even if I have committed heinous crimes, it is time to pay my debt!"

Why would you do such a thing!

After the woman finished speaking, she knew that she was about to be sealed again, and the only chance to escape this place was the people in front of her.

Just before she was about to be resealed into the coffin, she shouted, "If you wish to become saints, come to me, and I will have a way to help you become saints!"

The enormous coffin lid was placed on top of each other.

The coffin continued to vibrate from within.

It was clearly the woman inside who was pounding on the ground in frustration.

Jiang Yun also breathed a heavy sigh of relief. The magic power in his body had been greatly depleted in a short period of time as he activated the black talisman.

"The barrier at the exit has disappeared."

Tuoba Anyi reached out and touched the exit, his face beaming with joy. Clearly, the opening of the exit's barrier was closely related to the black talisman in Jiang Yun's hand.

"Let's get out of this godforsaken place first," Qin Hong said slowly, his face grim.

No one wanted to stay in this godforsaken place any longer.

They all left the place, and when everyone returned to the hall, the red door closed again, and everyone's magic power vanished instantly.

It was clear that the entire sealing formation had resumed operation.

Seeing the monsters trapped in the ice, the group dared not linger. If the ice cave were to reopen, these monsters could still take their lives.

Just as Jiang Yun and the others were preparing to leave.

As I passed by the giant python, I suddenly heard a faint sound coming from its belly.

"Did you hear that?" Jiang Yun suddenly looked at the vulture beside him.

Upon hearing this, the vulture nodded: "Could it be..."

"Let's cut open this giant python's belly and take a look."

They knocked off the ice block on the python's belly, made a forceful cut, and instantly, a lot of blood gushed out from the python's belly.

At the same time, another figure emerged from inside.

It turned out to be a hyena.

The hyena's body was now corroded by the giant python's stomach acid, making it look as if it had been doused with sulfuric acid—a truly horrifying sight.

"What's going on?" The hyena looked around after it came out.

"This isn't the place to talk. We need to get out of here right away," Jiang Yun said in a deep voice.

With a map in hand, the group quickly headed out of this horrible place. Along the way, the hyena's body recovered remarkably fast.

As expected of a zombie, its self-healing ability is truly enviable.

Xiao Jingzhi, in particular, was injured in the leg and is now walking with a limp.

On the way, the group also revealed the true situation of this sacred tomb.

After hearing this, the hyena was also somewhat shocked: "Is a Saint Realm expert sealed here?"

"Who set up this formation that could seal away a Saint Realm expert?"

This problem stumped Jiang Yun and the others...

The Ten Immortals mentioned by the woman were actually able to seal her away.
