Emperor of the North Chapter 51

Chapter 51 - Initial Use of crystal

"Hurry up!"

Li Mu never thought that these demon corpses would look at the crystal coffin with such importance. Seeing that the surrounding demon corpses were all rushing towards the crystal coffin, he pulled Young Master Yun and ran towards the nearest entrance.

"Boom!"

Explosions rang out one after another. The ten Flame Nitrate Bullets's might were extremely great as they exploded together into a fiery cloud that enveloped the crystal coffin and the blood-colored altar.

Li Mu pulled Young Master Yun and rushed to the entrance of the passage. Standing at the entrance of the passage were seven or eight demon corpses, the Soldier Monster Corpse that were ordered to guard the passage by the silver-haired demon corpse at the beginning.

Li Mu didn't have time to think, he had already heard the angry roars from behind him, it was the prelude to the silver-haired demon corpse's berserk mode. He didn't care about Flame Nitrate Bullets, so he shot another five, aiming at the few demon corpses blocking the entrance of the passage.

"Boom!"

Explosions rang out again as a large area of fire raged. The few demon corpses guarding the entrance were unable to dodge and were swept up by the explosive power of the five Flame Nitrate Bullets. They were engulfed in flames in an instant, and their bodies were set ablaze.

"Let's go!"

After settling the several obstructing tigers, Li Mu did not care about the remaining ripples of the Flame Nitrate Bullets that had yet to dissipate, and with a flash, he grabbed Young Master Yun and rushed into the passage.

After rushing into the passage, Li Mu looked back, only to see that the blood red altar was no longer there, and the crystal coffin had opened, and there was an additional female corpse in a golden phoenix robe, with a phoenix crown on her head.

The phoenix robe demon corpse emitted an extremely terrifying aura, and was even stronger than the silver-haired demon corpse. This made Li Mu think of the legendary sacred art realm.

After being awakened, the phoenix robe demon corpse seemed to be extremely angry. She coldly swept a glance at Li Mu who was in the passage and instantly, Li Mu felt an extremely stifling sensation, as if a wild rabbit was being stared at by an eagle.

The silver haired demon corpse roared, transforming into a ray of silver light, rushing straight towards Li Mu. Seeing that, Li Mu did not hesitate to take out ten Flame Nitrate Bullets, and smashed onto the two sides of the passage.

"Boom …!"

The entire underground passage shook for a moment, the walls of the surrounding rocks crumbled, and at the entrance of the passage where Flame Nitrate Bullets's explosion was the fiercest, many large rocks tumbled down, blocking the entire passage's entrance.

After leading Young Master Yun in a mad dash for a long time, Li Mu found a remote corner of a passage and stopped.

"Bro, did you follow?"

Young Master Yun panted heavily as he spoke in a low voice.

"I've exhausted my true essence, so my perception has greatly decreased. If I really catch up, then we'll have to pray for ourselves!"

Li Mu sighed, weak to the extreme.

"Sigh!" I never thought that the two of us would be in such a sorry state with so many Flame Nitrate Bullets s around us. We almost died at the hands of the demon corpses. " Young Master Yun smiled bitterly.

"I already told you not to follow me, yet you refused to listen. Are you regretting it now?"

"Regret? "I, Young Master Yun, have never in my life regretted anything. Although this battle has paid a heavy price, I was overjoyed. I have not made this trip in vain!"

As he spoke, Young Master Yun straightened his chest, putting on a fearless expression. It was obvious that he was putting on an act.

Li Mu laughed but did not say a word, he forced himself to stay alert, then sat down cross legged on the ground.

"From the looks of it, the Flame Nitrate Bullets must have destroyed the tunnel, so the demon corpses should not catch up to us in the near future. We have to recover our true essence as soon as possible, we can't just sit and wait for death." Li Mu said solemnly.

"That's right, what a pity, I only prepared some low-grade pills. It won't be easy to recover my true essence in a short period of time."

As Young Master Yun spoke, he took out two pill bottle s and took out a few medicinal pills to swallow, then gave the pill bottle s to Li Mu.

He also recognized these two bottles of pills. One was a Qi Returning Pill, which could be used to recover primeval essence, and the other was a Hundred Herbs Pill, which could be used to heal wounds. Although the two types of pills were valuable in the market, the effects were not that great, and in the world of cultivation, they could only be considered as the lowest grade of pills.

After consuming the pill, Li Mu's heart suddenly moved, he started feeling around on his body, and in the end, fished out a brocade bag from his bosom.

"What is this? A man like you actually wears such a thing? "

Young Master Yun, who was circulating his cultivation technique and meditating, saw Li Mu fumble for a long time and then fished out a embroidered bag, and asked in confusion.

"This is some good stuff. Whether or not we can get out of here alive will depend on these things."

Li Mu said as he opened the embroidered bag.

Li Mu took out two thumb-sized, diamond-shaped crystals from the pouch and threw one to Young Master Yun.

"This is …" crystal? You... You actually have something like a crystal, this thing has a price but no market. Just a piece of it is worth over ten thousand taels of silver, and moreover, there is a price but no market! "

Looking at the rhombus-shaped crystal that Li Mu threw to him, Young Master Yun was extremely shocked and had a face full of disbelief.

"This is only in my Chu Country, a remote and barren place. It is said that in some countries with abundant energy, the money that warriors trade with crystal is in the form of crystal s, hurry up and refine and absorb the energy from the crystal. It is said that the recovery speed of true essence is extremely fast, and it will also have the effect of increasing one's cultivation."

Li Mu had long studied the crystal that Li Zhengkun had gifted him many times, so he was not as surprised as Young Master Yun. Although the thumb sized rhomboid crystal was small, it was filled with extremely pure vitality.

At the same time, the Great Brahma Art in his body revolved, and traces of pure essence that could be seen with the naked eye was extracted from the diamond-shaped crystal, and directly absorbed into his body.

Young Master Yun was overjoyed. Although he was the young master of the Di family, he did not have the luxury of using crystal to cultivate. Although he had experienced it before, it was something that happened a long time ago.

Looking at the crystal in his hands, Young Master Yun gratefully glanced at Li Mu, and like Li Mu, began to circulate his cultivation technique to absorb and refine the vitality within the crystal.

Just as Li Mu and Young Master Yun were recovering their true essence from refining the crystal, a huge battle was taking place in another stone room in the Ancient Emperor's tomb.

Chu Yu was sweating profusely. She held a purple sword in his hand and was battling with a silver-haired demon corpse with a hammer.

This silver-haired demon corpse would definitely be shocked if Li Mu saw it, because other than the different weapons, it was almost exactly the same as the silver-haired demon corpse that Li Mu had fought so hard for not long ago.

The strength of the silver haired demon corpse was comparable to late Xiantian. Although Chu Yu's body rippled with zhen yuan qi of the Innate realm, after fighting with the silver-haired demon corpse, he was basically in a passive state.

This terrifying Innate Ranker did not use any weapons, every strike he sent out would bring about a green light, causing his power to be extremely strong. And just like Chu Yu, his opponent was also a silver-haired demon corpse, the only difference being that his opponent was not one, but three.

Although Ma Zongyun was not at a disadvantage when facing off against three silver-haired demon corpses with strength comparable to late Xiantian at the same time, he was extremely passive and had no time to think about other things while busy.

In addition, Li Feng, Little girl in green, Liu Zhenyun and Liu Hong were also intensely battling with their opponents, who were mostly ordinary white-haired demon corpses and Soldier Monster Corpse s. Furthermore, there were three red-furred demon corpses with a higher strength.

"Boom!"

Ma Zongyun's palm struck a silver-haired demon corpse's chest and shattered the silver armor on the opponent's body. Ma Zongyun's primeval essence was as deep as the ocean, and with a single strike, he finally broke the balance and sent a silver-haired demon corpse flying.

"Break!"

After repelling one silver haired demon corpse, Ma Zongyun took out two golden throwing knives from his sleeves. With a flash, the two throwing knives in his hands flew at the other two opponents at an odd angle.

The golden flying knife flashed a piercing golden light. Its speed was frightening. In the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the two silver-haired demon corpses. Without any delay, it stabbed into their faces.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

With two explosive sounds, the heads of the two silver-haired demon corpses that were shot by the golden flying knives instantly exploded, turning into two headless corpses that fell to the ground.

"Roar!"

The silver haired demon corpse that was sent flying by Ma Zongyun's palm, upon seeing that two of its comrades had fallen in the blink of an eye, let out an angry roar. A silver light wave came out of its mouth and rushed towards Ma Zongyun.

Ma Zongyun pulled back his horse face as the True Essence in his body surged violently. He struck out five palms at an extremely fast speed, and when the five palm energies merged together, it transformed into a large green palm print that smashed onto the silver light wave.

The huge green hand and the silver wave collided together. It was like a rock smashing into a large ball of cotton. It neither broke the power of the silver wave nor was bounced back by the silver wave. They were unable to stop it in mid-air for a moment.

"Zephyr Palm!"

Ma Zongyun saw that his first strike was not successful, and with the release of both palms, a burst of True Essence was released, striking the silver light wave.

"Boom!"

The silver light wave disintegrated under the force of the green hand and Ma Zongyun's powerful attack. A terrifying Essence Qi swept out and collided with the silver haired demon corpse, directly blowing it into pieces and scattering it on the ground.

The various parts of the silver-haired demon corpse wriggled on the ground after being smashed into pieces, as though it was trying to piece together. But how could Ma Zongyun give the other party the chance to do so?

"Bam!" The silver-haired demon corpse's head exploded, causing an existence whose strength was terrifying like late Xiantian to disappear from this world.

Ma Zongyun was the first one to settle the matter, so the rest of the enemies in Cloud Cracking Sect quickly turned the tables around. With Ma Zongyun's help, the remaining enemies were all quickly cleared and they all fell in the stone room.

"Elder Ma, this is the seventh wave of demon corpses we have encountered. Each wave is stronger than the last. I think we should leave. If this goes on, we will lose our lives here sooner or later!"

Li Feng looked at the large group of demon corpse on the ground and fear rose up in his heart. Liu Hong and Liu Zhenyun looked at each other and didn't say a word, but they could tell that they were unwilling.

Ma Zongyun glared at Li Feng but did not express any objections, as he subconsciously looked towards Chu Yu.

Chu Yu had fought a huge battle with a silver-haired demon corpse and had lost a lot of True Essence. At the moment, his face was pale white, but seeing Li Feng fighting and retreating, his face sank and he said: "This is a mission sent by the sect, if you want to leave, then that is fine. I will cripple your cultivation according to the sect rules now, and then you can go yourself."

"Eldest Miss, I have to leave. Tell us what the mission is. We have been in this damn place for so long. Aside from the demon corpses, what have we come here for?"

After returning to the Li family to visit relatives, under Ma Zongyun's lead, they very quickly gathered at one place. According to Chu Yu, he had a sect's mission and needed their cooperation, so in the end, they travelled for almost two months and arrived at the top of the Azure Cloud Mountain, where they even entered the Ancient Emperor's tomb.

After entering the Ancient Emperor's tomb, Chu Yu seemed to be looking for something, they had been walking around the pathway for a long time, and encountered many attacks from demon corpses, each one more dangerous than the last. For example, this time, if Ma Zongyun did not display his power, they might have to stay here forever.
