Chapter 939: Chapter 939
The entire tomb was filled with pitch-black demonic energy, like a vast plume of smoke, oppressing everyone to the point of almost suffocating.
Under this immense pressure of True Demon Energy, even though they were super powerhouses, even Heaven and Earth Great Powers.
Their full strength was suppressed by twenty to fifty percent, depending on the strength of their cultivation method.
Besides these issues.
They also discovered a terrifying problem within this Demon Tomb.
Once the True Qi inside their bodies was overly consumed, unless they used elixirs or spirit stones to recover, dreaming of casually absorbing the energy from the surroundings as they would outside to replenish their expended True Qi was futile.
"Witch! What on earth is happening here? Why is my power suppressed by thirty percent?"
"And why can’t I absorb the surrounding demonic energy and convert it into True Qi?"
"You damn girl! Tell us, is this a plot you set up long ago to lure a bunch of us strong warriors here, deliberately using us as sacrificial lambs?"
Sensing the changes in themselves, hundreds of independent martial practitioners glared angrily, staring fixedly at the Witch and her group.
They clearly wanted an explanation, or else they would make them pay.
"Humph! All of you shut up for this Holy Daughter! Anyone who dares utter another word, this Holy Daughter will kill them immediately!" The Witch commanded coldly, filled with murderous intent.
Her icy gaze coldly swept over the independent martial practitioners in front of her.
Swept over by her gaze, these independent martial practitioners immediately fell silent under her awe-inspiring authority.
"Before entering, this Holy Daughter already told you! There is a certain risk on this trip! You might lose your lives here, but you treated it as wind past your ear! Now that you’re here, you want to blame this Holy Daughter? It’s not that this Holy Daughter looks down on you, but do you even deserve it with your status?" The Witch sneered disdainfully.
After speaking, without waiting for these independents to respond, the Witch continued.
"Moreover, do you really think this Holy Daughter’s Heavenly Rank Techniques and martial skills are that easy to obtain? Do you expect a pie to fall from the sky without any cost? I think you’re still dreaming!" The Witch sneered.
With her rebuke, the anger of the surrounding independent martial practitioners instantly dissipated.
"The Witch is right! Since we have taken advantage from you and promised you, we will certainly not renege on our word!"
"Humph! Whoever dares to go back on their word, I will be the first not to let them off!"
The group of independent martial practitioners, immediately adopting a compliant attitude, responded.
"Very good! As long as you help me obtain that artifact, after it’s accomplished, this Holy Daughter promises to reward each of you with at least a hundred middle-grade spirit stones!" The Witch said coolly.
But in her heart, she sneered! A bunch of fence-sitters, if I don’t use you, who else would I use?
"Brother Hao, it turns out to be here!!" Shangguan Baiyun whispered.
"Yes! It seems that this is really not the sacred ground of your Murong Family, but the resting tomb of a True Demon Clan master!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a solemn expression.
"Brother Hao, what should we do now?" Shangguan Baiyun asked.
"You all try not to make a move! If there is danger, I will resolve it for you! Remember, the waters here run deep, filled with danger at every turn, if you don’t want to die, stay put and don’t wander off!" Zhang Xiaohao instructed.
Yunzhong Shangren, Young Master Feng Hua, and the others nodded firmly upon hearing Zhang Xiaohao’s words.
"Alright! Follow me!" Zhang Xiaohao said.
Following the main group, deliberately staying at the back, under the lead of the Witch and her group, they advanced into the depths of the tomb.
Under the Witch’s leadership, Zhang Xiaohao’s group arrived at the central area of the tomb, which was the previous huge hall.
Along the way, although everyone encountered various demon soldier ambushes, none of them were ordinary!
Before these demon soldiers could approach, they were all blasted away.
A group of people stood by the golden pool, which Zhang Xiaohao and his group had previously drained; it had now fully recovered.
Moreover, it had returned to its former state, as if never absorbed.
"Brother Hao, that thing has restored itself again!" Shangguan Baiyun exclaimed.
"Hmm, I will send you over in a moment. Make sure to absorb it quickly!" Zhang Xiaohao replied.
Then, he addressed Yunzhong Shangren and the other nine.
"In honor of that Longevity Pill, I, Brother Hao, will grant you a stroke of luck. When you enter the Golden Spirit Pool later, vigorously operate your cultivation techniques and absorb all the Spiritual Energy within!" Zhang Xiaohao reminded.
"Yes, Brother Hao!" They responded respectfully.
"Villain, where do you think you’re going!" Zhang Xiaohao suddenly roared.
A dazzling golden light flashed, and an enormous dragon claw swept, grabbing Shangguan Baiyun and the others, sweeping them into the Golden Spirit Pool.
Thirteen consecutive splashes resounded.
When everyone realized what had happened, they saw Zhang Xiaohao, transformed into a golden Five-Clawed True Dragon, hovering over the Golden Spirit Pool, unleashing one powerful martial skill after another from his dragon claw.
Occasionally, the Five-Clawed True Dragon would swiftly dive into the Yellow Pond Spirit Pool, open its maw wide, and devour a large amount of Golden Spirit Liquid, before bursting out of the pool again.
The gigantic martial skills were continually unleashed from the dragon claw, preventing the independent martial practitioners from getting close to the Golden Spirit Pool.
"Ah! Damn it! You are snatching away the Holy Daughter’s blessing and letting so many people in; you deserve to die!" Watching the continuously depleting Spiritual Liquid in the Golden Spirit Pool, the Witch roared angrily in her heart.
If it weren’t for her ample bosom to hold more air, she would have exploded by now! Updates are released by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝑓𝑖𝑟𝑒•𝙣𝙚𝙩
"He’s gone mad! You dozen, go and entertain him well for me!" The Witch sneered with narrowed eyes.
"Yes, Holy Daughter!" The dozen black-robed elders responded respectfully.
Then, with a point of their feet, the massive aura of the Cycle Palace Realm erupted from within, rushing toward Zhang Xiaohao.
"Watch out for your Holy Daughter!!" Watching the dozen Cycle Palace Realm Heaven Rank Powerhouses charging, Zhang Xiaohao exaggeratedly shouted.
Hearing Zhang Xiaohao’s words, the attacking Cycle Palace experts faltered, instinctively pausing and looking back.
The Holy Daughter stood intact at her original position, and if one had to say there was a change, it was on her face!
So cold it could freeze the sun in the sky!
Taking advantage of their moment of distraction, Zhang Xiaohao dashed into the Yellow Pond Spirit Pool.
"I will absorb!!!" Zhang Xiaohao roared in a low voice.
Opening his dragon mouth wide, he gulped without any discrimination.
In just a few breaths, under the absorption of Zhang Xiaohao and the other fourteen,
The once full Golden Spirit Liquid was directly reduced by three-fifths.
