Chu Hao was startled. My body becoming steel and iron, an unkillable cockroach?
The toad licked its wounds. When it ca back to its senses, it glared at Chu Hao. "Have you taken the skeleton?"
Chu Hao flatly denied it. "I didn't have ti to take it out."
The toad didn't believe him. It wanted to go down and check, but the thought of the terrifying Netherworld Person made it too afraid to dare.
The toad grumbled, "The Undying Sect even refined Netherworld People! That stuff requires Underworld River Water. Such extravagance."
Chu Hao said, "It doesn't really want to kill us."
The toad nodded. "This Emperor is also puzzled. Even though it hurt , it didn't actually want to kill us."
However, Chu Hao's gains this ti weren't bad; he won an Iron Bone Curse Seal from the lottery.
The toad was the unlucky one. It had been grabbed by the Netherworld Person, and the dark Nether Qi on its thigh lingered for a long ti, causing it so much pain it cursed up a storm.
Chu Hao, dissatisfied with the Iron Bone Curse Seal, said, "I'm going to go down and take another look."
The toad was surprised. "You kid, do you really have a death wish? Your luck might not be so good this ti."
Chu Hao waved his hand. "Brother Hao is first-rate at escaping. The Netherworld Person might not be able to catch ."
Chu Hao leaped into the water. This ti, he directly took out the Ritian Stick and spun it, wanting to continue searching for Curse Marks.
The ancient ruins of the Undying Sect were extensive. The place they had been before was just a small part. This ti, Chu Hao went deeper and found so Curse Marks, collecting them all.
Suddenly, at the bottom, he saw a tower. It was only about twenty ters tall and crumbling in many places. He spotted a sign:
Sacrificial Spirit Hall.
Chu Hao lurked closer, wanting to see if there would be any rewards. Entering the tower, he swam downwards. Soon, he saw a ray of light, and joy filled his heart.
But as he approached the underwater light, his expression turned strange.
The light emanated from a Water Corpse. Similar to those outside, it had no flesh left; only its hair floated in the water.
The light originated from inside the Water Corpse's skeleton, where a glowing object, like a piece of Treasure Jade, was nestled.
Chu Hao glanced at it. What is this thing inside a person's body? A gallstone?
Chu Hao silently apologized. Senior, please don't bla for this. He then reached out to grab the treasure-like jade object.
System prompt: "Obtained Fifth-Order Curse Mark, Soul Gallstone."
A gallstone? This thing actually turned out to be a gallstone!
Incredible! Even a gallstone has beco a Fifth-Order Curse Mark treasure. The ancestors of the Undying Sect are truly amazing!
Suddenly, Chu Hao felt a chill on his back. A strong sense of crisis washed over him. Without looking back, he ford hand seals and activated the Iron Bone Curse Seal.
In the next mont, Chu Hao's skin, flesh, and bones turned to steel.
BANG!
Chu Hao was hit hard by sothing. The clothes on his back shredded, and he shot out like a cannonball, crashing into the tower's stone wall and creating nurous cracks.
Chu Hao grimaced in pain, but internally he was thrilled. The Iron Bone Curse Seal is too powerful! Without it, that last blow would have definitely pierced through!
He saw a figure standing before him. It had a ghastly white face and dead fish-like white eyes, and it was glaring fiercely at Chu Hao.
A Netherworld Person.
The Netherworld Person was furious. It charged forward, the water rippling as it moved with unprecedented speed, creating a sonic boom underwater.
Are you kidding ? If this Netherworld Person got ashore, with its speed, it could undoubtedly break the sound barrier!
Without a word, Chu Hao threw a Holding Mountain Fist.
The punch landed solidly on its chest, sending it flying backward. Chu Hao grabbed the Ritian Stick and spun it, creating a whirlpool to aid his escape.
The Netherworld Person reacted quickly. Despite taking a Holding Mountain Fist, it seed unaffected and rushed forward again.
Damn it, it's still chasing!
The opponent was too fast; Chu Hao couldn't outrun it. Its sharp claws lunged fiercely towards his heart.
Chu Hao realized he couldn't block it at all in the water.
Fortunately, the Iron Bone Curse Seal took effect. The strike caused him severe chest pain, but it also blasted Chu Hao onto the shore.
The toad was waiting. Suddenly, it saw Chu Hao shoot out of the water with a BOOM! Chu Hao flew dozens of ters into the sky before crashing down.
BANG!
Chu Hao landed with a splitting headache but was still alive. His chest had been clawed; blood gushed non-stop, and intense pain wracked him.
"AAAAAH!! It hurts like hell!" Chu Hao cried out in agony; he hated pain more than anything.
He deeply appreciated the benefits of the Iron Bone Curse Seal. If not for this thing, I would have died twice already.
The toad ran over. "Damn! What happened to you?"
Without a word, Chu Hao got up and bolted.
The toad was stunned for a mont, then chased after him.
In the next mont, both man and toad felt a chilling dread from behind. The Netherworld Person had co ashore. It was draped in long hair, had a sturdy physique, and emitted a hoarse roar that made even the air vibrate.
System prompt: "Host has triggered a quest: Hunted by the Netherworld Person. Quest rank: Black Iron. Survive the Netherworld Person's pursuit for three days to complete the quest."
System prompt: "Completing the quest will award 15,000,000 Experience Points."
System prompt: "Completing the quest will award 200,000 rit Points."
System prompt: "Completing the quest will award two Green Diamond Treasure Chests."
"Finally, the System wishes the Host good luck."
Chu Hao: WHAT THE HELL?!?!?
Damn it! A hunt quest, and for three days straight! This is going to be the death of !
Chu Hao hurriedly asked, "System, can I just give the item back to it? Will that work?"
System: "Depends on the Netherworld Person's mood."
I'm so screwed. Brother Hao has really stirred up a hornet's nest this ti.
Chu Hao ran even faster, like a gust of wind, covering one to two hundred ters in just seconds.
The toad was also panicking. The Netherworld Person hadn't caught up yet, but they could feel its murderous aura locked onto them.
The toad asked in panic, "Kiddo Chu, what exactly did you take?"
Chu Hao cursed, "It was just a damn gallstone! My luck is terrible."
The man and the toad ran for several thousand ters, finally creating so distance.
Chu Hao finally had a chance to rest. He gasped for breath and quickly drank a Magic Recovery Potion, wary of the Netherworld Person catching up.
The toad said excitedly, "Let This Emperor see it! What kind of gallstone is it?"
Without a word, Chu Hao tossed the Soul Gallstone to the toad. "It's yours."
Upon seeing the treasure, the toad's eyes nearly popped out. It exclaid, "HOLY CRAP!! Is this a gallstone? Damn it, this is clearly a Soul Treasure! A Soul Treasure from a top-tier expert!"
Soul Treasure!
Chu Hao didn't know what it was, but he knew he couldn't keep it. A Fifth-Level Soul Treasure was very tempting, but his life was more important.
Obviously, the Netherworld Person targeted because it thought I took the Soul Treasure.
Chu Hao said, "It's all yours now. Goodbye."
Without another word, Chu Hao bolted.
He left behind the ecstatically joyful toad, using it as a scapegoat to buy himself so ti.
The unlucky toad, blinded by greed, still hadn't realized that Chu Hao had just sold it out.
