Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn

In mid-air, locusts and swifts fought fiercely, creating a bloody and chaotic battle.

Xiang could only pray silently that neither side would notice them.

But in this world, good things often don't come true, while bad things do.

Unable to break through the circular formation formed by the swifts after a prolonged assault, the locust swarm split off a portion of its members and charged towards the group on the stone platform at the Dragon Gate.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts sank!

Even if it's just a small portion, that's tens of thousands, which is simply beyond human power to resist!

Fortunately, Ah Ning remained calm and quickly ordered her mercenaries to form a battle formation and use hunting crossbows to shoot the locusts charging at the front.

Although these alien locusts are formidable, they are still within the realm of carbon-based life. The hunting crossbow can kill even lions and tigers, so hunting locusts is naturally no problem for it.

Moreover, the locusts are so dense that you don't even need to aim. Just shoot at the swarming insects, and often one crossbow bolt can kill three or four locusts.

Instantly, the whooshing sound of crossbows fired by Mike and the others rose and fell, the swarm of insects being shot down like candied hawthorns on a stick, falling into the deep valley.

But faced with swarms of tens of thousands of insects, the number they shot was simply a drop in the ocean.

Before long, the swarm of insects broke through the crossbow bolts and entered the area of ​​the Dragon Gate Stone Platform.

"Damn it, let's fight these bugs!"

Tiger, Lao Kuai, and others under Xiang's command gritted their teeth, pulled out Luoyang shovels, entrenching tools, and other equipment from behind their backs, and slammed them down on the charging locusts.

In an instant, the locusts were crushed, and various dark green liquids splattered everywhere.

But the problem remains: there are just too many locusts. Kill one and more will swarm over.

Tiger and his companions could only hold out for a few seconds before they were overwhelmed by the overwhelming swarm of insects.

Locusts quickly broke through the defenses, their sharp forelimbs striking Hu Zi and his companions, leaving several deep, bone-revealing wounds on their bodies.

Tiger grunted, but had no time to worry about his injuries. Instead, he swatted away a few locusts and rushed in front of Xiang, shielding him from the swarm of insects.

Upon seeing this, Ah Ning instantly drew the pistol from her waist.

But he didn't have many bullets left, and in this situation, bullets wouldn't be of any use, so he had to put the pistol away again and pull out the dagger from his boot.

Ah Ning brandished her dagger, cleanly slicing through several locusts, then turned and shouted, "Advisor Li, what do we do now?"

Li Changsheng shook his head helplessly.

He possessed the indestructible Vajra Divine Skill, and the mouthparts and forelimbs of these locusts were like tickling him, posing no threat whatsoever.

However, Ah Ning and the others are just ordinary people. If they are left unattended, they probably won't survive the attack of these locusts.

After all, Hu Bayi has the protagonist's halo, which allows him to turn misfortune into good fortune when facing desperate situations.

But judging from the locusts' fearless attitude, as if they were determined to wipe out the humans in front of them, they were clearly not as lucky as Hu Bayi and his group.

Li Changsheng removed the black coffin he was carrying on his back and stepped out from the crowd to the front.

During this time, countless locusts swarmed towards him.

But neither their sharp forelimbs nor the locusts' mouthparts could leave any wounds on him.

Seeing this, Aning and the others were all stunned.

Tiger and Lao Kuai, Xiang's men, couldn't help but mutter under their breath, "Boss, is this Consultant Li made of iron? How come even a locust bite doesn't leave a white mark?"

The shock that Xiang, the foreman, felt was no less than that that of his men.

He was equally stunned by what he saw.

You should know that he also got a cut on his arm during the melee!

These alien locusts had two forelimbs that were sharper than saws, easily tearing his arm open.

However, it's absurd that so many locusts swarmed onto Li Changsheng without leaving even a white mark!

Even more outrageous things are yet to come!

Suddenly, Li Changsheng shuddered, and the locusts crawling all over his body were shaken off instantly.

When everyone looked closely, they saw that apart from his clothes being torn to shreds, there wasn't even a drop of blood.

It was probably Li Changsheng's appearance that attracted the attention of the insect swarm, and the pressure on the others immediately eased.

However, some still manage to slip through the net and occasionally rush onto this stone platform.

Li Changsheng stood at the forefront of the crowd, thinking to himself.

"Although these locusts are a different species, they aren't considered evil or demonic creatures, so the Golden Light Mantra has limited effect on them. The Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, on the other hand, is quite effective; the internal force from the punches can easily suppress and kill a large swarm of locusts. But there are at least hundreds of thousands of these locusts; killing them one by one with fist force would take forever..."

Thinking of this, Li Changsheng decisively placed the black coffin in his hand on the stone platform, then opened the coffin lid and pulled out an ancient corpse!

The ancient corpse wore a crown, a black royal robe, and auspicious cloud boots!

Even with its withered face, it still exudes a remnant of majesty, indicating that the ancient corpse has an extraordinary origin.

Moreover, the most striking feature of the ancient corpse was that its body was covered with coffin nails, a total of 108!

The moment the ancient corpse appeared, the swarm of locusts in mid-air suddenly stopped attacking, but did not disperse; they hovered not far away.

In addition, the sky, which was originally quite bright, suddenly became covered with dark clouds!

On the other side!

The moment Hei Xiazi saw the ancient corpse appear, he shuddered and quickly retreated behind the others.

He was muttering something under his breath, like he was chanting a sutra.

"You can't see me, you can't see me..."

Tiger, Old Kuai, and the others didn't know the origin of the ancient corpse, but they inexplicably felt a chill run down their spines.

They quickly gathered around the foreman and whispered, "Foreman, what's the origin of this ancient corpse? I have a creepy feeling about it."

The foreman's alarm blared, and he thought to himself, "It's not just you guys who are terrified, I, the foreman, am terrified too!"

For some reason, the threat posed by this ancient corpse was even more terrifying than the father and daughter zombies he had once seen in a feudal lord's tomb!

Of all the people, Ah Ning stared wide-eyed at the ancient corpse, wondering about its origins.

However, the next second, she saw a scene that she would never forget!

Dark clouds rolled across the sky, and within moments a large mass of lightning and thunder gathered.

The rumbling thunder, held back yet unleashed, seemed to be accumulating world-destroying divine power.

Li Changsheng looked up at the sky above the canyon, frowned, and muttered, "Troublesome!"

That's right, this ancient corpse is the real body of King Xian that he brought out from the tomb of King Xian.

King Xian was proficient in Gu witchcraft and had also studied Taoist magic in the Central Plains, becoming skilled in the art of corpse dissolution.

His so-called method of achieving immortality was to cultivate himself into an unparalleled and ferocious zombie, and then use the Muchen Pearl and the ancient corpse cave inside the Tai Sui to obtain the power to reverse the heavenly order and achieve immortality through corpse liberation.

Of course, there was no hope for King Xian to become an immortal, but he did indeed become an unparalleled ferocious zombie!

Sure enough, as soon as they emerged from the black coffin, the divine tribulation of lightning immediately followed.

Li Changsheng was hoping to earn some rewards by attending the funeral of the Prince of Xian, so naturally he couldn't let the lightning strike the Prince of Xian and reduce him to ashes.

He pondered for a moment, his gaze falling on the black sheep stone carving on the stone platform, and an idea gradually formed in his mind!
