Tomb Raiding: The Bloodline of Dragons and Snakes, Starting from the Kunlun Divine Palace

Moreover, a corpse that can undergo special treatment is definitely not an ordinary person.

Only those who were exceptionally distinguished and powerful during their lifetime could qualify.

But how could a cat's corpse be preserved for hundreds of years?

"And this cat was thrown on the ground, it's obvious that it's not valued at all. Wu Xie, move your foot away."

Wu Tianjiao said.

Wu Xie nodded.

Then, he carefully lifted his foot and removed it from the cat's corpse.

Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that nothing had happened.

A human corpse that rises from the dead turns into a rice dumpling; I wonder what a cat's corpse would become. Wu Xie had been thinking about this the whole time, fearing he might encounter something terrible. Fortunately, in the end, everything turned out alright.

Wu Xie glanced at the candle again; strangely, the candle flame was still flickering. He couldn't understand what was going on.

Could it be that the danger isn't with the cat's corpse, but rather within the coffin made of Phoebe zhennan wood?

Or perhaps the air quality in the tomb wasn't very good, which affected the lighting of the candles.

After Wu Xie lifted his foot, Wu Tianjiao squatted down and carefully examined the cat's corpse.

The cat had a peculiar smell, and Wu Tianjiao thought that the cat must have accidentally ingested something, which was why it was like this.

This underwater tomb is essentially an experimental facility for researching immortality. What if this cat accidentally ate some research findings?

It wasn't unusual that the body hadn't decomposed. What Wu Tianjiao was actually worried about was whether the cat was truly dead, or if it might have turned into a sea monkey or a monster like the Forbidden Woman.

"Hey fat guy, give me a pair of gloves."

The fat guy had already gathered around, and so had the young man.

The fat man nodded and then handed over a pair of gloves. Wu Tianjiao handed the flashlight to the fat man, then put on the gloves himself. He then turned the cat carcass over with both hands.

Then he took the flashlight and began to carefully examine the cat's corpse, from bottom to top.

The body felt very stiff to the touch, indicating it had indeed been dead for a long time. Furthermore, all the fur on its body was completely dry.

It's no different from an animal that's been dead for several days.

However, what is certain is that it didn't just die; it must have died much earlier, perhaps decades ago, if not a hundred years ago.

Chapter 159: It's bizarre, truly bizarre.

Wu Tianjiao then moved the light source to the cat corpse's head. The moment the light touched the cat corpse's head, its eyes suddenly lit up, just like an owl's.

Keep in mind that its eyes were perfectly normal just moments ago.

Even without looking closely, the tomb was so dark, and the light was so bright that it was impossible for human eyes not to see it.

They should have seen it as soon as they entered the tomb. Wu Tianjiao and Xiao Ge were alright, after all, they were both experts. They wouldn't be afraid of anything they encountered.

But the fat guy was different. Although the other party was just a cat, this cat really made people's scalp tingle and their hair stand on end.

Already terrified, the fat man froze, feeling something drape over his shoulder.

Slowly turning around, he saw that Wu Xie had his hand on his shoulder. The fat man immediately became annoyed.

"Naive, are you trying to scare someone to death?" As he spoke, the fat man suddenly realized something was wrong.

He had just seen Wu Xie's eyes become as bright as Man's. And it seemed like hair was sprouting on his face. The fat man felt a chill run down his spine and his scalp tingle. He was truly terrified by this sight, but he dared not move.

He was afraid that if he made a move, Wu Xie would get angry and do something bad to him. At the same time, Wu Tianjiao and Xiao Ge also noticed Wu Xie.

Just then, Wu Xie suddenly let out a strange meow. It was exactly like a cat's meow.

His expression turned incredibly ferocious. Even his teeth became sharp.

After letting out a strange cry, Wu Xie immediately grabbed the fat man and tried to bite his neck.

"Hey, Wu Xie, what are you doing? I'm telling you, if you keep doing this, don't blame me for being rude." Wu Xie tried his best to push Fatty away. You know, Fatty is incredibly strong.

Putting aside Wu Tianjiao and Xiao Ge, he would definitely be an outstanding individual among ordinary people. However, at this moment, Fatty couldn't move Wu Xie at all. Moreover, he himself was struggling immensely.

Can't stand it anymore.

"Wu Xie".

"Brother, Brother Tian, ​​please save me! I really can't hold on much longer!" Wu Xie cried out as he clung tightly to Fatty's neck and pulled him towards him.

He bared his teeth, waiting for the fat man to come over so he could take a bite.

Wu Xie appeared rather thin, but at this moment his strength was truly immense.

It's said that those possessed by evil spirits become different people, and that's absolutely true. Wu Xie is in that state right now. He's no longer a person, but a cat demon possessed by a cat's corpse.

The young man immediately drew his black gold ancient sword, executing a swift and stylish slash. The blade sliced ​​his finger, and a drop of Qilin blood shot out, landing directly on Wu Xie's forehead. Wu Xie staggered backward.

Wu Tianjiao was right behind him, and with a single chop to the neck, he knocked him unconscious.

Wu Xie lay on the ground, and Wu Tianjiao pried open his eyes to take a look. He breathed a sigh of relief; fortunately, Wu Xie's blood was special and also had the effect of warding off evil spirits.

Otherwise, Wu Xie might have remained a cat demon forever. What kind of medicine did Wang Zanghai develop?

It was even able to retain the agility of life, which was far superior to the method of preserving memories used by Tie Miansheng. Even Wu Tianjiao had to admit that Wang Zanghai was absolutely a genius among geniuses. Just as Wu Tianjiao was still thinking about some things, Wu Xie suddenly opened his eyes again.

In an instant, it pounced on Wu Tianjiao.

However, Wu Tianjiao is not a fat man, so how could he possibly be injured by him?

They knocked him unconscious again.

The young man walked up to the cat corpse and, gathering all his strength, unleashed a palm strike.

With a single blow, the cat's corpse was instantly reduced to dust.

Wu Tianjiao took out the Northern Profound Pearl and held it under Wu Xie's nose, waving it around.

Wu Xie slowly opened his eyes.

But what's incredibly strange is that the cat's corpse was destroyed, and its soul was also killed. Logically, everything should have been over.

But the candle that the fat man had lit was suddenly extinguished at that moment.

A person lights a candle, a ghost blows it out; the candle being extinguished is definitely an ominous sign.

You have to understand how bizarre and dangerous what just happened.

The white candles in the southeast corner were not extinguished.

The danger has now passed, and the candles have been blown out.

This is bizarre, truly bizarre.

Wu Tianjiao, Xiao Ge, and Fatty all looked at the golden nanmu coffin behind them.

They knew the real danger in the tomb was probably inside the coffin. If they opened it, there was a high chance the corpse would rise from the dead.

Such a bizarre situation was even a bit hard for Wu Tianjiao to grasp at this moment.

From the moment Wu Xie was dragged into the coffin, the tomb chamber began to exude a strange aura. The fat man swallowed hard.

"Brother Tian, ​​Brother Xiao, I suggest we don't stay here any longer. Although I know you two are very capable, we should avoid such dirty things as scheming and backstabbing if possible. Too much of that stuff will shorten your lifespan."

Wu Tianjiao and the young man exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's meaning.

"Alright, then we won't open the coffin. But Fatty, you better not regret it."

For Wu Tianjiao and Xiao Ge, shortening their lifespan was actually of no concern. Although their lives were also finite.

However, given their current level of cultivation, they are not afraid of anything shortening their lifespan. But Wu Xie and Fatty are ordinary people, and they cannot ignore their needs.

"No regrets, absolutely no regrets. Although there might be some valuables in this coffin, nothing is more important than my life, right?"

The fat man had a clear understanding of things.

People say that people die for money, and birds die for food. It's true that he loves money, but only if he has the life to spend it.

"What... what just happened to me?" At this moment, Wu Xie fully woke up, but felt a headache.

He had actually woken up a long time ago, but only his body had woken up; his lost soul had not yet returned.

"Don't ask what happened yet, let's get out of here first." With that, the fat man walked to Wu Xie's side, squatted down and helped him up.

Actually, Fatty is a pretty good person. Although he might be someone sent by some organization like Aning, he doesn't have any bad intentions and is a person of principle.

Ultimately, it all boils down to just making a living. Fatty helped Wu Xie and the other man walk out, with Wu Tianjiao and Xiao Ge following behind. They were about to exit the tomb.

But then the tomb door suddenly slammed shut. Everyone knew what was happening. The water pressure must have triggered a mechanism again. The tomb chamber had shifted its position once more.

But the timing of this mechanism was just too awful. This tomb was already incredibly eerie and dangerous. Suddenly blocking their path was practically a death sentence. Just then, the young man approached.

His tall figure, as imposing as a pine tree, stood opposite the tomb entrance, his hand reaching for the hilt of the black gold ancient sword slung across his back.

He slowly drew the sword from its sheath.

Chapter 160: What exactly is a corpse-raising coffin?

The guy probably meant to force the door open.

But before he could draw the Black Gold Ancient Sword from its sheath, a creaking sound suddenly came from behind him.

Everyone instinctively stiffened, slowly turning around to look behind them. A bizarre scene unfolded: the coffin behind them was already open...

Everyone slowly turned their heads and were surprised to find that the coffin made of Phoebe zhennan wood was slowly opening. The coffin opened by itself.
