C541 Corpsemancer

4The arrival of this Yin Demon was unexpected, but in such an environment, it was impossible for Chen Yu to not be alerted. Without waiting for the Yin Demon's claws to land, he had already slashed out.    
2

    

The Wind Stabilization Blade's sharp blade intent directly struck the Yin Demon's claws and tore it apart. However, this Yin Demon was indeed powerful. After its severed claws left Chen Yu's body, they continued flying towards him and grabbed onto his body.    

    

The Yin Demon was originally suppressed by the starlight and could no longer escape. However, it was immediately bound by Yao Yaoh's Thousand Revolution Summoning Art, its body quickly turned into a void and was grinded until it finally turned into a Death Soul Bead.    

    

Yao Yaoh grabbed the Death Soul Bead and looked at Chen Yu: "Are you alright, Junior Brother Chen?"    

    

Chen Yu shook his head and said, "I'm fine!"    

    

With the Yin Demon's claws on her body, the Yin Qi corroded her bones and immediately pierced into Chen Yu's body. If it was any other warrior, Yao Yaoh would have definitely fallen into the same predicament as before, but for Chen Yu who had the Blood Flame on his body, it only took a few breaths to purge the deadly cold Qi from his body.    

    

"It's good that you're fine!" Yao Yaoh was also aware that Chen Yu's Spiritual Soul and his special Qi Power could suppress Yin Qi, so she was not too worried. She said: "You have to put your Spiritual Soul further away!"    

    

"En!" Chen Yu nodded and did as he was told.    

    

The Star Soul flew quickly, and wherever it went, a thick layer of yin aura spread out. As soon as it passed, a moaning demonic cry sounded out, and it quickly distanced itself, only to find that a few Yin Demon had been hit by the starlight and immediately escaped, not daring to come close.    

    

With the help of the falling starlight, Chen Yu used the Bloodfire Eye Technique to look into the distance. When he saw this scene, he suddenly froze and felt his scalp go numb.    

    

Under the starlight, a few sarcophaguses were placed a dozen or so meters away. And further away, due to the cover of the Miasma, the sarcophaguses were pitch black, like a female monster.    

    

Yao Yaoh's eyesight was naturally not as good as Chen Yu's when he used the Bloodfire Eye Technique. She saw Chen Yu's expression and asked anxiously: "What's wrong?"    

    

"Many sarcophaguses!" Chen Yu said and walked towards the nearest sarcophagus.    

    

Yao Yaoh was also surprised when she heard that. She followed Chen Yu to the nearest sarcophagus.    

    

The stone coffin was extremely heavy. It gave off a creepy feeling in the dense space.    

    

"Why is there a sarcophagus here?" Yao Yaoh had a puzzled expression as she asked.    

    

Chen Yu shook his head. Even Yao Yaoh did not know the answer, so he naturally had no way of knowing. He said, "Didn't they say that the three great sects once fought over the ownership of the ancient battlefield? Senior Sister, why don't you know there are so many sarcophaguses here? "    

    

Yao Yaoh shook her head and said: "I have some understanding of the ancient battlefield and even went to the Tripitaka Sutra Pavilion to look up some ancient books. I really didn't know that there would be a sarcophagus in the depths of the ancient battlefield.    

    

Chen Yu's heart trembled when he heard this. He carefully looked at the sarcophagus and saw that it was covered in runes.    

    

Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat and he immediately kept the Star Soul.    

    

As soon as the Star Soul was put away, the thick Yin Qi rushed over again. Yao Yaoh asked: "Chen Yu, what are you doing?"    

    

"Be careful, Senior Sister! I'm going to observe!" Chen Yu said.    

    

After the Yin Qi came in contact with the surface of the sarcophagus, Chen Yu saw, with the light of the fluorite, that strands of Yin Qi started to flow into the runes on the surface of the sarcophagus and flow along with the runes towards the bottom of the sarcophagus.    

    

Yao Yaoh had also noticed this. The two of them looked at each other, and their expressions changed.    

    

Without the deterrence of the Star Soul, a strong Yin Demon approached from within the dense and gloomy aura.    

    

Chen Yu had no intention to kill the Yin Demon now, so he immediately released the Star Soul.    

    

The nearby Yin Demon immediately fled.    

    

Chen Yu grabbed the corner of the sarcophagus and exerted his strength.    

    

The lid of the coffin was unusually heavy, it weighed more than a few thousand pounds, but it was easily opened by Chen Yu's immense strength.    

    

Yao Yaoh's expression was on guard, her fingers had already been activated with the Spiritual Dipper's Qi, and the Three-tailed Green Fox had also flown up, hovering above the sarcophagus.    

    

Just as the stone coffin moved a corner, a wave of smoke like Yin Qi rushed out, the Yin Qi was so strong, it had already reached the point of materialization, even if the Star Soul's starlight shone on it, it would not be able to penetrate it, and it was instead blocked.    

    

Although Chen Yu was very careful as he was moving the coffin lid, his arm was still touched by the Yin Qi. In an instant, he only felt a rotten and dark, cold Qi invading his bones, no matter how fast he retracted his hand, all he saw was a dark green color on his wrist.    

    

Moreover, this yin qi had the power to erode everything.    

    

"Chen Yu!" Yao Yaoh was shocked.    

    

Chen Yu was shocked. The blood flame in his body moved and rushed to his wrist, burning the terrifying Yin Qi.    

    

Even so, after the yin aura had been removed, the flesh on Chen Yu's wrist had changed beyond recognition. It had become a dead skin, and one could see the bones on it.    

    

Fortunately, his bones weren't affected.    

    

Yao Yaoh's expression was already filled with fear.    

    

Chen Yu activated the Spirit Connecting Vine to wrap around his wrist and release his life force. Chen Yu then operated the Blood Flame Tyrant Spell to start recovering.    

    

"I'm fine!" Chen Yu said, "Senior Sister, come behind me. Be careful!"    

    

"Perhaps we should leave this place. This place is too strange!" Yao Yaoh said, "I wonder where that Ye Zhao went. There must be a problem with him!"    

    

"I'm afraid we have no other choice!" Chen Yu looked at the opened sarcophagus, the Wind Stabilization Blade in his hands slightly waved as he said: "If everything here is arranged by someone, I'm afraid that coming here alive is a matter of course!"    

    

Yao Yaoh shook her head in surprise. She realized that the probability of this happening was extremely high. Even so, she was still able to survive. This time, when she and Chen Yu were together, although their strength had greatly increased, they were still a bit too relaxed during the journey.    

    

If that was the case, if he chose to retreat now, not only would he not be able to retreat, he might even die faster.    

    

"You don't have to worry too much, Senior Sister. Maybe everything is just my guess!" Chen Yu said with a wry smile. His eyes were still fixed on the coffin that was slightly opened, only to see that the Yin Qi that was rising from the coffin had become thinner.    

    

No matter how terrifying the Yin Qi inside the coffin was, it was still limited.    

    

Chen Yu patted the Storage Bag, took out a long blade with a sheath, and walked over with the edge of the sheath to press against the coffin lid.    

    

Yao Yaoh also calmed her mind and remained on her guard.    

    

The yin aura in the sarcophagus was no longer that heavy, but Chen Yu still did not dare to be careless. With a thought, the Star Soul flew to the top of the sarcophagus.    

    

The starlight shone on the opened sarcophagus.    

    

"A wolf corpse?" The message from the Star Soul surprised and confused Chen Yu.    

    

"Awoo!" However, right at this moment, a low, hoarse wolf howl rang out. A withered black wolf claw suddenly extended out of the sarcophagus and rested on the edge of the sarcophagus.    

    

Yao Yaoh cried out in alarm, and immediately took action. The Spiritual Dipper tilted, and struck the wolf claw.    

    

Bang! The sharp Spiritual Dipper exploded. The wolf claw was unharmed.    

    

With the Star Soul's perception, the image of a wolf's corpse in the sarcophagus appeared in Chen Yu's mind: his body was skinny and shriveled, only skin and bones remained, and his fangs were green and black.    

    

"Corpse Beast? So the one in the sarcophagus is actually a Corpse Beast? " Some memories from Bloodfire Emperor surfaced in his mind. Chen Yu felt a chill in his heart as he slashed out with his saber.    

    

Ding Chen Yu's blade edge was very sharp. When it hit the wolf's claw, it felt like it hit metal and left a deep cut on the sarcophagus. However, it failed to cut off the wolf's claw.    

    

Putting aside the sharp claws, the bones at the top of the claws were actually as hard as a Profound Artifact's. It was comparable in strength to a top grade spirit beast's bones.    

    

"Ao!" The wolf's howl was filled with anger. The wolf claw bent with force and crushed the edge of the sarcophagus. A shadow arose from the sarcophagus and appeared in Chen Yu and Xiao Yanyu's line of sight.    

    

Its sunken eyes seemed to flash with purple fire. In such an environment, the wolf looked like a ghost, with a thick aura of death and yin. It twisted its head and let out a low growl, as if it was not feeling well.    

    

Yao Yaoh's face was already slightly pale.    

    

Chen Yu immediately took out his saber and his expression became extremely serious. That one slash had proven the corpse wolf's body strength, so killing this corpse wolf was obviously not easy. Furthermore, he knew that Corpse Beast did not feel any pain, and facing it was extremely dangerous.    

    

"Aooo!" The Corpse Wolf bared its teeth and jumped up.    

    

"Retreat!" Chen Yu knew Yao Yaoh was one of those warriors who was not good at close combat. When he saw the corpse wolf pouncing towards him, he immediately shouted.    

    

At the same time, Chen Yu also took a few steps back.    

    

However, the moment the Corpse Wolf jumped, it didn't pounce towards Chen Yu and his companion. Instead, it jumped five to six meters into the air and pounced towards the Star Soul hanging above the sarcophagus.    

    

Chen Yu couldn't help but be stunned.    

    

The Star Soul was a spirit body and was somewhere between real and fake. The Corpse Wolf's pounce was destined to fail, its body passed through the Star Soul and landed on the ground, causing the entire ground to seem to tremble.    

    

Only then did Chen Yu clearly see that under the starlight, the corpse wolf's body was constantly emitting Yin Qi and death qi. Under the starlight, the corpse wolf turned into smoke and was cleansed.    

    

It was obvious that the Star Soul was suppressing the corpse wolf's undead qi, causing it to feel extremely disgusted. Its first attack after exiting the sarcophagus was not towards Chen Yu or Yao Yaoh, but rather towards the Star Soul.    

    

It was obvious that the corpse wolf's intelligence was not high. It still did not come to its senses even after it had failed to pounce, and actually pounced towards the Star Soul once again.    

    

"What the hell is this?" Yao Yaoh muttered.    

    

"It's the Corpse Beast!" Chen Yu said, "Simply put, monsters that are bred from dead Yin Qi are much stronger than spirit beasts of the same rank and are hard to injure. Senior sister, you must be careful, don't get too close to it, its claws and fangs are all filled with corpse poison, if you touch it, you will die! "    

    

"Then how do we deal with it?" Yao Yaoh's face was pale.    

    

"I'll try!" Chen Yu said.    

    

Although the Corpse Wolf's intelligence was low, it knew that it could not attack the Star Soul. It turned its head to look at Chen Yu and his companion, the purple fire in its eyes flickered and it let out a howl as it charged towards Chen Yu.    

    

Chen Yu raised his hand and the Flamingo flew out. It spread its wings and knocked into the corpse wolf.    

    

Boom! The Flamingo was struck and turned into nothingness, although the spirit flames could not stop at the corpse wolf's body, burning holes on its black and shriveled body, but the corpse wolf's speed did not decrease. It jumped three meters away from Chen Yu, and its black claws pressed down.    

    

Chen Yu let out a long breath, lowered his shoulder, twisted his waist, and slashed out. The blade's momentum was like thunder, and there was almost no saber aura on the edge of the blade. Chen Yu did not use much spiritual energy for this cut with just his physical strength.    

    

Bang    

    

When the knife hit the wolf's claw, it was like hitting a steel rod. The wolf claw suddenly flew up and the blade's momentum did not stop. It hacked at the corpse wolf's head and the corpse wolf was sent flying back.    

    

Chen Yu merged all of his strength into this blade, causing this blade to cut off one of the corpse wolf's front claws.
