Chapter 218: Elder Awakens

Xiang Province, Floating Corpse Cave, inside the Shishan Cave, a Corpse King Sect deacon came to the top of the corpse mountain near the exit and knelt on one knee to salute a cyan jade coffin.

"Disciple Qin Xianyuan respectfully invites the Sixth Elder to wake up!"

As he spoke, he also reached out on this cyan jade coffin. As he began to use the ghost power on his body, this coffin shook violently.

"Click~"

With a soft sound, the lid of this cyan jade coffin was opened, and then a thick dead air permeated from the gap.

This gray-white dead air is highly toxic to any living thing, and ordinary creatures will die if they touch it, but at this moment, the only role is to allow the elder of the Corpse King Sect to sleep.

"Sha~ sha~"

As the cyan jade coffin lid was slowly pushed open from the inside, an old man wearing a gold-threaded purple robe, with an old face and exuding majestic ghost power, slowly sat up straight.

As this old man opened his eyes, the Corpse King Sect deacon Qin Xianyuan became more and more respectful, because the person in front of him was Lu Jie, one of the six remaining elders of the Corpse King Sect!

"Whoo~ whoo~"

After the Sixth Elder of the Corpse King Sect, Lu Jie, opened his eyes, his eyes swept around, and then he took a deep breath. The dead air scattered around was all sucked into his chest.

The whole process was like a whale swallowing, and it was impossible to see how this old man did it.

"Why wake me up?"

After absorbing all the dead air around, the Sixth Elder Lu Jie asked the deacon Qin Xianyuan who was still kneeling beside him.

His eyes were pure black, and when his gaze swept over, even Qin Xianyuan's living dead body couldn't help but tremble.

"Disciple Qin Xianyuan has met the Sixth Elder. This time, waking up the Sixth Elder is because there is a problem with the forbidden land."

Hearing his inquiry, Qin Xianyuan immediately reported to him, but when he said this sentence, he was afraid that he would anger this powerful and temperamental Sixth Elder.

"Forbidden land... has the Corpse Lord Boundary Tablet started to fail?"

Hearing Qin Xianyuan say that there was a problem with the forbidden land, Lu Jie immediately looked inside the entire Shishan Cave, and then found that the corpse gas accumulated here was significantly thinner.

When he slowly retracted his gaze, he found even more abnormal places. There were several empty coffins at the foot of the corpse mountain where he was!

"Where did the others go?!"

This situation instantly made Lu Jie dissatisfied, so he directly questioned Qin Xianyuan beside him.

The Corpse Lord is sleeping, the forbidden land is sealed, and the Corpse King Sect has withdrawn from the struggle with the outside world. Before the Corpse Lord wakes up, Corpse King Sect disciples who leave the forbidden land without authorization must be severely punished!

"Back to the Elder, this matter is tricky!"

Hearing Lu Jie's inquiry, Qin Xianyuan immediately replied. After all, he was the one who woke up the other party because of this.

"A few days ago, it seemed that a puppet broke into the forbidden land, and then it was discovered and destroyed by the disciples. In order to prevent outsiders from spying on the forbidden land through the puppet, the guard at that time arranged for that disciple to leave the forbidden land to eliminate future troubles."

"But later, after that disciple left the forbidden land, he never came back. The guard at the time thought there was a change outside, and that disciple's strength was low, so he woke up several other disciples to leave the forbidden land together for support."

"But this time, it was still like mud entering the sea without any response. The guard realized that the situation was not right, so he woke up the subordinate and reported this matter to the disciple."

Speaking of this, Qin Xianyuan couldn't help but pause, because he had already seen the impatience and anger on the Sixth Elder's face through the change in his expression.

But he was also confused about this matter now, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to explain:

"The disciple has never encountered such a situation, so he can only arrange for him to lead more disciples to leave the forbidden land to investigate."

"There was not much abnormal situation outside the cave where the forbidden land is located. The boundary tablet left by the Corpse Lord did have some problems, but we couldn't repair it, so we could only continue to go out to inquire about the situation."

"That guard also had an order left by the Corpse Lord. It stands to reason that even if he encountered danger and was not an enemy, he would not be unable to return."

"But now it has been several hours, and the disciple still has not received any contact...... The disciple is worried that someone is specifically setting a trap for us, so he dare not make a decision without authorization, so he woke up the Sixth Elder."

After listening to his description, the Sixth Elder directly scolded:

"Trash! Idiot! Simply full of nonsense! Are you all sleeping your brains into rotten mud!?"

"Corpse Lord forbidden land, those who enter without authorization die!"

"This is the order of the Corpse Lord. Since the other party dares to come, you should wake up all the disciples guarding the Shishan in the forbidden land and kill them until the blood flows into rivers and the bones are piled up!"

"Could it be that my Corpse King Sect has not appeared in the world for too long, and the world has forgotten the reputation we once had!"

The reason why Lu Jie really felt angry was not that those disciples had not appeared until now.

Things like disciples are just slaves that can be summoned at any time for them. What he is angry about is that since they are disciples of the Corpse King Sect, they act so petty!

They are a top-level sect with Sages sitting in town. Even if the strength was damaged due to the struggle with the Great Xia Three Sages, they are not something that those cats and dogs can provoke!

"Yes! The disciple knows he is wrong! The disciple knows he is wrong!"

Feeling Lu Jie's anger, Qin Xianyuan could only lower his head and respond, but the next moment he was still directly pumped away and hit the cave rock wall heavily.

"Bang! Click!"

Suddenly, Qin Xianyuan's bones shattered, and his internal organs were damaged. The whole person looked like he was about to fall apart, but he stood up from the ground regardless.

"Thank you, Sixth Elder, for showing mercy!"

Because he knows that being able to save a life is already a fortunate thing. As for the damage to the body, it is no problem for these living dead; just change to a suitable corpse or ghost limb.

"Hmph! Let it go this time!"

Lu Jie responded to him, and then began to think about who was targeting them.

Although the words he just said were full of murderous intent, it was obvious that the other party seemed to be deliberately luring them out.

"Could it be those three guys?"

"No, no, the Corpse Lord said before sleeping that those three can no longer take action against us!"

As the culprit who caused the Corpse King Sect to be silent, the Great Xia Three Sages were naturally the first object he associated with.

But soon he reacted that it should not be the other party, for two reasons.

The first is that although the Corpse Lord was defeated that year, the foundation of the Sage is still there.

They have now closed themselves and hidden. The Great Xia Three Sages are not easy to go too far, otherwise, if the Corpse Lord goes crazy and destroys everywhere, the Great Xia Three Sages cannot bear such losses.

The second point is that if it is really the other party who wants to take action while the Corpse Lord has not yet woken up, it is to directly attack the forbidden land, rather than like this, where disciples disappear one after another.

This kind of behavior, which is similar to fishing, looks a bit petty no matter how you look at it. The Great Xia Three Sages are not enough to test them through such means. ===== CHAPTER 219 =====
