CHAPTER 864: CHAPTER 874: CORPSE FLOWER AND DEMONIC SHADOW

Chu Feng watched all this in surprise, along with the pile of gray dust on the ground.

Everything has a spirit. If I’m not mistaken, it must be the existence of that Green Jiao’s Fury Flame that allowed the dragon corpse to remain incorrupt for millions of years, almost unchanged.

Once the Green Jiao’s Fury Flame is devoured, the dragon corpse loses its protection and instantly turns to dust.

Just like in many ancient tombs, the corpse stabilizing bead placed in the mouth of a corpse.

It can ensure the corpse does not rot for a thousand years.

If a tomb robber removes the corpse stabilizing bead from the corpse’s mouth, the corpse will immediately decay at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The Green Jiao’s Fury Flame effectively serves as the corpse stabilizing bead.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise startled Chu Feng. He was now inside the cave.

The loud noise just now originated from the main tomb chamber.

Chu Feng immediately controlled his sword and flew towards the main tomb chamber at the fastest speed. If the tomb collapsed, that would be disastrous. Chu Feng would be buried alive inside it.

Even with Sword God Cultivation, he could still fall.

Soon, he returned to the main tomb chamber.

As his gaze swept across, he immediately noticed that the coffin, which was originally suspended in the air by Mysterious Iron Chains, had fallen to the ground for some unknown reason.

The lid of the coffin had also fallen to the side.

A large black-purple strange flower had grown from inside the coffin. It looked quite dazzling, exuding a bizarre aura, giving it a bewitching presence that made one’s heart pound.

It’s very large, especially now that it’s fully bloomed, its size is exaggerated.

It’s as big as a bathtub, with a diameter likely exceeding one meter.

"Corpse Flower!"

"This is an extremely rare Corpse Flower, and it’s grown to black and purple, indicating its age is over ten thousand years." Chu Feng couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

He didn’t know whether it was joy or excitement, but his body trembled slightly.

In the eyes of this Eternal Life Pill Master, any spiritual medicine with years of age is a treasure. They can be used to refine various elixirs.

To ordinary tomb robbers, the Corpse Flower is simply a disaster.

Because it’s poisonous and can create all sorts of illusions. Some tomb robbers, once they get within thirty meters of the coffin, will immediately be caught. Few can escape unscathed.

Chu Feng, being equipped with Sword God Cultivation and also an Alchemy Venerate, naturally isn’t afraid of the Corpse Flower’s poison.

The Corpse Flower has extremely harsh growing conditions, and it must grow beside a corpse and rely on the corpse’s nutrients to complete its early germination and growth. Once it reaches a certain age, it can, like the corpse, absorb the essence of the sun and moon.

If left undisturbed, it can keep growing for a thousand, or even ten thousand years.

In Chu Feng’s eyes, a Corpse Flower over ten thousand years is absolutely an existence comparable to a treasure. It can be used to refine an extremely precious Reviving Elixir.

The famous Nine Revolutions Soul Reviving Elixir is refined using the Corpse Flower as the main material, becoming an Immortal Pill.

"This Azure Dragon Underground Palace is full of treasures, it’s simply my fortune land!"

In great delight, Chu Feng naturally wouldn’t pass up this Corpse Flower. Having finally encountered it, he spent time digging it up and then stored it in the storage ring.

When Chu Feng was close to the coffin, only about a meter away, a black shadow suddenly shot out from inside.

Its speed was incredibly fast.

"Not good, it’s a corpse refining!"

Chu Feng was greatly shocked, hastily activating the Sword Soul for defense. The Unmovable Ming King Sword Soul had been hovering above his head.

Now it came in handy.

A circle of Resist Golden Light deflected the oncoming shadow.

Faced with such a strong enemy, Chu Feng didn’t have absolute confidence.

During the brief clash just now, he had already discovered that the opponent’s strength was incredibly strong. It likely had reached the three-level Corpse King cultivation.

Because the Resist Golden Light deflected the opponent with great effort, and it only pushed it back a little.

"Demon Body, kill it!" Chu Feng immediately summoned the Demon Body to deal with the corpse refining together. If I’m not wrong, this corpse refining is likely the Founding Emperor of the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom.

It’s really hard to understand what these emperors are thinking?

After death, instead of resting in peace, they are obsessed with seeking alternative immortality, even willing to turn themselves into a corpse refining.

The Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor has been dead for so many years, yet he’s only at the three-level Corpse King, which is quite unexpected.

To think, when Chu Feng snatched this Demon Body from Master Wei, it had already reached the second level of the Corpse King.

The Demon Body was created by Master Wei using the corpse of a Supreme Emperor from the Vermilion Bird Royal Family, not the Founding Emperor of the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country. Additionally, the history of the Vermilion Bird Heavenly Country is much shorter than that of the Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom.

According to Chu Feng’s thinking, the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s corpse should have at least reached the Ninth Level of Corpse King to make sense.

Because the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s mount was so strong, and he’s been dead for so many years.

Even a stone should have turned into a spirit by now.

Bang, bang, bang!

Chu Feng’s Demon Body, although wounded, did not affect its ability to kill enemies. The Demon Body is just that powerful.

Not to mention losing one of its arms, even if its head were to fall off, it would still be able to kill enemies.

The severed Demon Arm had already regrown a new one. Although weaker compared to the original Demon Arm, it was a flaw.

The Demon Body and the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s corpse were both at the three-level Corpse King, and the two clashed intensely, fighting speed with speed.

Chu Feng couldn’t help but be moved.

The Demon Body devouring a human strong being can only absorb a small portion of the energy from their essence blood. However, devouring other members of the Demon Clan is very useful.

Corpse refining is its kin, even its origin.

Devouring the opponent can nearly fully absorb the opponent’s energy without any loss.

"Let’s go all out! The Azure Dragon Heavenly Kingdom is my mortal enemy, so let’s eliminate your ancestor first!" Chu Feng was a person with bold ambitions, he acted as soon as he thought.

With a swift movement, the Small Extermination Immortal Sword Formation was deployed, directly enveloping both the Demon Body and the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s corpse.

"Who are you? To destroy my Azure Dragon, steal the Abnormal Fire, and prevent me from utilizing it to cultivate Corpse Flame, prepare to die!" The corpse of the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor had developed some spiritual wisdom. It let out a sound like the clashing of gold and iron, angrily demanding Chu Feng’s identity.

"Why do you care who I am? The one wanting your life, that’s who I am!"

Chu Feng was too lazy to waste words with it, he pinched the sword technique and slashed furiously at the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor. Helping the Demon Body, they fought the foe together.

Sensing danger, the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s corpse immediately began to charge left and right, trying to break the formation and escape.

Unfortunately, Chu Feng’s Demon Body clamped down on it tightly, and coupled with Chu Feng’s relentless assault with sword lights, it was under significant threat.

The skirmish was fierce.

Chu Feng was also worried about unforeseen changes. To prevent delays and complications, he immediately unleashed the Nine Yang Strange Fire, transforming it into a Fire Jiao to attack.

"Ah..."

Once the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s corpse was burned, black demon fog emitted from its surface to resist Chu Feng’s Abnormal Fire.

At the same time, it let out a series of shrill cries.

"Oh, didn’t expect you’re actually able to cultivate Corpse Flame!" Chu Feng was surprised to find that the Azure Dragon Heavenly Emperor’s corpse had a remarkably strong resistance to his Abnormal Fire.

Luckily, it had been elevated to Eighth Grade; otherwise, it might not have been able to harm it.
