Shi Feng’s Soul Power had reached the Seventh-stage Venerable Level, and what’s more, Piao Xueyan at this mont was rely a soul, and even more so, a soul held in the palm of Shi Feng’s hand. From the Soul Fluctuations of Piao Xueyan, Shi Feng knew that Piao Xueyan wasn’t lying. Given the burning of his own Blood-colored Fiery Flas, she would not dare to lie.
Without that Silver Stone, both he and the Kirin King would likely die unknowingly in this eerie Death Forbidden Land.
Shi Feng turned his head to look at the Kirin King and said, "Those Silver Stones are probably extrely rare in this Death Forbidden Land. The place where Piao Xueyan found them, they have already searched again and found no more of that Silver Stone. If we don’t have Silver Stones, continuing to go deeper might an we end up dying inexplicably like those before us in this place!"
After hearing Shi Feng’s words, the Kirin King hesitated for a mont before laughing, "Ha ha, since I’ve co here, I had no intention of leaving alive."
Other Martial Artists coveted Shi Feng’s Full Moon Scimitar, craving to possess it, and the Kirin King was no exception in desiring such a divine weapon. However, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Fortune cos with risks.
Since the Death Forbidden Land contained such divine weapons, it might also have Divine Arts, Divine Skills, or other opportunities. Now that they were here, there was no reason for the Kirin King to back down.
After listening to the Kirin King, Shi Feng nodded and said, "Then let’s go! However, later on, you can also explore this Death Forbidden Land on your own, or follow . You are free to choose. But I have a friend trapped inside an Ancient Formation in this Forbidden Land, and I am going to rescue her now."
"We’ll see when the ti cos," said the Kirin King.
"Fair enough," Shi Feng replied, and then the two of them continued to delve deeper into the Death Forbidden Land. Shi Feng had commanded Piao Xueyan with his Soul Power to lead him to the Array where Yuel Wushuang was trapped.
Shi Feng and the Kirin King continued further in, their spirits focused, carefully sensing everything around and beneath them, fearing a mont’s carelessness would result in death. At the sa ti, they searched for the scarce Silver Stone and any possible Divine Artifacts and Divine Skills within the Death Forbidden Land.
The gray-white fog around them grew denser, and the surrounding space beca more and more gloomy, while beneath their feet remained a stretch of ruins.
However, Shi Feng felt more and more uneasy, with the constant feeling that a pair of eyes was secretly watching him from behind. Yet whenever he halted or turned around, that sensation would imdiately vanish.
The Death Forbidden Land was eerily silent and peculiarly ominous. Just being in this world made one feel a sense of ill on that could happen to oneself at any mont.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a piercingly shrill scream rang out, resembling the agonizing howl of a Fierce Ghost, startling both Shi Feng and the Kirin King, who simultaneously stopped in their tracks.
"It’s up ahead!" Shi Feng shouted abruptly, and with the Kirin King, they both dashed forward, shooting through the dense fog. After flying about ten ters, they saw a body lying amongst the ruins.
It was a middle-aged man, whom Shi Feng and the Kirin King had seen before outside, with Martial Arts Cultivation at the One-star Martial Venerable Realm. However, the man now lying within the ruins was dead, yet on his body, there were no fatal wounds to be seen.
"His soul is gone, it must have been directly obliterated," Shi Feng said, his expression turning grave as he looked at the corpse.
"What on earth could have directly destroyed the soul of a One-star Martial Venerable martial artist!"
"The people who entered with you that day, did they die in the sa way? Did you notice anything?" Shi Feng asked the soul of Piao Xueyan.
"Yes! So would cry out loudly, just like what you just heard, and others might die without even realizing it," Piao Xueyan said.
Then, adhering to the principle of not wasting any resources, Shi Feng devoured the Power of Death of the warrior. His left hand reached out, and instantly, seven Blood Arrows shot from the seven orifices of the dead middle-aged warrior towards the palm of Shi Feng’s hand, which he quickly absorbed.
The body of the middle-aged warrior quickly withered away, becoming a dry corpse. The ghastly sight of the body in the Death Forbidden Land made the Kirin King beside him feel even more creeped out.
However, the Kirin King had long known that Shi Feng possessed such blood-absorbing cultivation techniques and wasn’t particularly unsettled. On the other hand, if other martial artists were to co by later and see this, those with fainter hearts might be frightened.
Afterward, Shi Feng even bent down and took the storage ring from the withered corpse, tossing it into his own Storage Ring, then stood up and carefully sensed his surroundings.
All around, it was still eerily silent and dark, with the thick white fog that enveloped the Death Forbidden Land looming overhead.
Despite Shi Feng’s Seventh-stage Venerable Level Soul Power, he still couldn’t sense any presence around and had no idea where the death of the middle-aged warrior had co from.
An unknown fear began to spread in his heart.
So things, even if known to be mysterious or powerful, could be captured and provide a slight sense of relief. But it’s the unseen and the intangible that are truly frightening, and death could co at any mont.
Shi Feng looked up into the sky. Upon really entering the Death Forbidden Land with the Kirin King, he discovered that a mysterious force from above completely suppressed his form, preventing him from rushing upward. The most mysterious aspect of the Death Forbidden Land was actually the sky above, wrapped in a thick white fog, dense like a solid. He had no idea what kind of world existed behind it.
What exactly is present up there! Even his Seventh-stage Venerable Level Soul Power couldn’t sense it at all. Sensing it was like sensing the Void with no living beings, devoid of any fluctuations.
"Hehe, this Death Forbidden Land truly lives up to its na! A powerful Martial Venerable level martial artist just died mysteriously like that!" The Kirin King looked down at the shriveled corpse lying in the ruins with a bitter smile.
Then, the Kirin King’s gaze moved away from the corpse and on to Shi Feng, saying, "Young Master Feng, let’s continue! Even if I am to die, I must find a Divine Weapon or clutch a Divine Art!"
The Kirin King had always referred to himself in a humble manner in front of Shi Feng, but now, faced with the possibility of dying without rhy or reason, he naturally discarded those considerations and started calling himself "I" as in the old days.
After hearing the Kirin King’s words, Shi Feng said, "If you die here, and if I can get out of here alive, I’ll burn a Divine Art on your grave. Would the Nine Nether Technique be sufficient?"
Hearing Shi Feng’s words and the ntion of the Nine Nether Technique, the Kirin King laughed and said, "Haha! Yes, that should suffice! That is, after all, the Supre Technique created by Emperor Nine Nether, the strongest man of old. If you burn it on my grave, I can rest in peace even in death!"
