After bypassing the main hall of the Bronze Hall, they reached a long corridor. The three of them quickly rushed in.
The Firestorm Wheels were extremely fast as they fled. However, the faint footsteps behind them were like a rush to death, making them not dare to stop for even a moment.
"Teacher, what exactly is he?”Zhou Xiao, who was being hugged by Mo Yu, took the opportunity to ask.
A pair of white spirit light wings appeared on Yue Ji's back. Its speed was extremely fast, actually able to keep up with the speed of the Firestorm Wheels.
"I'm not sure, but it should be an ancient evil spirit that possessed the elder of Sen Luo Temple," she said in a low voice. Judging from the strength they had exchanged just now, he could probably unleash the full strength of a Sen Luo Temple elder, or even stronger. They had to think of a way to shake him off.”
"There's a stone door up ahead." Mo Yu whispered.
Yue Ji's eyes lit up. The three of them stopped. This stone door was right in front of the entire passage and was tightly sealed. This time, no one opened it ahead of time.
"Let's go in first." Yue Ji made a prompt decision. She went forward and pushed open the stone door. It was actually another tomb chamber.
Footsteps sounded from behind them again. They were neither fast nor slow, as if they were deliberately teasing the three of them.
After closing the door, they scanned the place. The tomb was as big as a courtyard and was sealed in all directions. There was also a coffin placed in the center of the tomb.
There were many murals on the wall, and the three of them quickly browsed through them. The murals described an expert unleashing lightning and suppressing all kinds of evil.
This expert was sometimes dressed in a black robe, sometimes in a water suit. The weapon in his hand also changed, either a long sword or a lightning halberd.
He had a thin face, but he had an imposing aura. He seemed to be middle-aged, but his exact age was unknown.
Yue Ji roughly swept a glance and said concisely,""It's Immortal Divine Firmament's Demon-Subduing Painting."
As there was still a dark spirit seeking her life in the outside world, she didn't take a closer look. She quickly checked the tomb to see if there were any other exits.
The coffin in the center was pitch-black and tightly sealed. There were chains binding it, and complicated incantations were written all over it.
" The chains are intact, and the coffin doesn't look like it's been opened before. It should be safe this time." Mo Yu inspected the coffin carefully.”
Yue Ji nodded. She saw that there was a pond that was not too big at the back wall of the tomb chamber. There was a faint fragrance coming from within. The two chains on the coffin also rose up from the pond, as if they were providing power to suppress this coffin.
There were words on the pond. The words were simple and unadorned, very ancient. At the very least, Mo Yu did not recognize them.
Zhou Xiao raised her head and read out word by word,""Immortal Divine Firmament came here to suppress the primordial evil beast, Fei Xi, and specially set up an Immortal Gathering Pool to kill it with the water of the pool.”
"Immortal Gathering Pool!" Yue Ji's gaze turned intent, looking into the pool, an obvious look of excitement flashing across.
The Immortal Gathering Pool was the Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid, which was very useful to her.
The immortal liquid in the pool was almost dried up, but there was still a trace left, about a bowl's worth.
She said thoughtfully," So that's how it is. The thing sealed in this coffin is an evil beast like the Filthy Xi. This kind of evil beast is the filthiest thing in the world. The Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid is the purest water, and it's the nemesis.”
As she spoke, she took out a jade bottle and was about to put away the remaining immortal liquid.
"Wait a minute." Mo Yu suddenly called out and stretched out her hand to stop her.
"What's wrong?" Yue Ji looked at him doubtfully.
Mo Yu said in a deep voice," Don't get carried away. Look carefully. Is this really Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid?"”
Yue Ji frowned and focused her attention to look carefully into the pool. Suddenly, she cried out in a low voice, her expression changing abruptly.
Her expression darkened slightly. The cold flame was condensed into a long needle and pierced into her fingertip. A drop of blood dripped into the pool.
In an instant, everything changed. The remaining immortal liquid seemed to have been contaminated by this drop of blood. The fragrance disappeared, and a fishy smell assaulted his nose.
The immortal liquid at the bottom of the pool turned into a sticky blood-colored liquid that made one feel nauseous.
"Teacher, what's going on?" Zhou Xiao asked.
Yue Ji's expression was similarly ugly. She drew a deep breath and said,"" It's been ten thousand years. Back then, Immortal Divine Firmament used a coffin to suppress the Filthy Sunset Beast. This beast was formed from the most impure power of heaven and earth. While it was purified by the Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid, it also polluted the immortal pool in the opposite direction, resulting in this appearance.”
Her tone was filled with unwillingness. After going through so many hardships, she finally found the Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid, but it was completely contaminated and could not be used at all.
Her spirit body was severely injured and had already touched the origin. Only a few rare treasures could help her recover.
All of them were extremely precious items, and the easiest to obtain was the Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid.
She took a deep breath and forcefully dispelled her anger. After thinking for a while, she still put the puddle of smelly liquid into the jade bottle with a cold face.
"It's already contaminated to this extent. Why are you still collecting it?" Mo Yu asked curiously.”
Yue Ji replied," Even if it's contaminated, it's still Spirit Recovery Immortal Liquid. Put it away first. In the future, we might be able to find a way to purify it. It's at least a way out."”
"Even if we really can't find a way, this contaminated immortal liquid can still be made into poison. We can't waste it."”
The corners of Mo Yu's mouth twitched slightly. He could clearly sense the fury in Yue Ji's tone.
He was probably going to explode from anger.
However, if it were him, he would probably feel the same way when he encountered such a thing.
If it was any other time, he might have been in the mood to mock them, but now that the evil spirits chasing after him were approaching, the situation was critical.
"What do we do now?" he asked.
Yue Ji put away the jade bottle and turned around to look at the stone door. Through the investigation just now, this was a separate tomb chamber without any other exits.
She was deep in thought, trying to think of a countermeasure.
Outside the door, the sound of footsteps became clearer and clearer, neither fast nor slow.
The other party seemed to know about this tomb and knew that there was no exit to the tomb. He had the intention of catching a mouse.
However, it was precisely because of this that it made people even more anxious and desperate.
Mo Yu stood at the side and did not make any obvious remarks. He already had 230,000 points. He had enough confidence to activate a new transformation.
It was just that he did not express that he wanted to see if Yue Ji still had any trump cards under this kind of situation.
After all, the two sides could only be considered friendly partners so far. They could not even be considered true friends.
"Teacher, should we open this coffin?”
Zhou Xiao suggested," Didn't you say that there's a primordial beast sealed in here? If it's still alive, we can release it and open the stone door. Perhaps we can cause a fight between it and that evil ghost. We might have a chance of survival."”
Mo Yu glanced at Zhou Xiao in astonishment. This suggestion was truly bold, as though it was a death wish.
Yue Ji shook her head and said," No way. Ten thousand years is too long. That fierce beast is extremely likely to have been thoroughly purified. Even if it's really alive, the Filthy Sunset Beast is transformed from foul air. Its very existence is a disaster. Letting it out, the foul air it carries will instantly pollute us, turning us into dirty monsters.”
Zhou Xiao revealed a disappointed expression, but was not discouraged. Thinking about it, she wanted to speak again, but Yue Ji raised her hand to interrupt her.
It was only to see Yue Ji heave a sigh of relief, as if she had made up her mind. She turned her head solemnly to look at Mo Yu and said,""Nezha, according to our previous agreement, you can leave on your own when you encounter danger. I will go out and stall that evil ghost later. You can find a chance to escape.”
