Chapter 270 Rakshasa Pilgrimage
"Oh no! A coffin!"
Zhu Ganglie was so frightened he almost jumped up, instinctively hiding behind Zhao Yun and clutching Zhao Yun's clothes tightly.
"Don't be afraid, it's all the same!" Zhao Yun stared intently at the white jade coffin, sensing no signs of life, and offered words of comfort.
"Cough! Why didn't you say so sooner? It's all this freak's fault for being so jumpy, making me..."
Kongming glared at Zhu Bajie, then walked solemnly toward the white jade coffin. He secretly activated his Shrinking Earth Technique, keeping a watchful eye on himself, ready to lead everyone away if any danger arose.
The group slowly approached the white jade coffin, but it was surprisingly calm. Even when Kongming circulated his internal magic power, he could not sense any life force.
Could it be that the flower fairy is really dead?
As the group gradually approached the coffin, Kongming's gaze was instantly drawn to an object deep within the flower bushes beside the coffin.
The object was mostly buried deep in the ground, with only a tiny corner showing, submerged among the lush flowers, faintly glowing with a bluish light.
"Huh! Could this be the thing that guided us here?"
Kongming felt a chill run down his spine. Just now, after he poured his magic power into the gilded cauldron, this place flashed with a blue light of the same origin as the gilded cauldron, which must be this very thing.
While keeping a close watch on the movements from the coffin, Kongming gave Zhu Ganglie a wink.
"Why don't you go dig it yourself?"
Zhu Ganglie reluctantly moved his feet, rolled up his sleeves, and used both hands to dig away the soil and flower bushes around the object.
"What kind of piece of junk is this?!"
A moment later, Zhu Ganglie held up an object that emitted a bluish light and cursed.
Just then, the gilded cauldron, which had been quiet all along, suddenly began to tremble violently and uncontrollably, emitting a rapid buzzing sound that made everyone's eardrums ache.
The piece of "broken copper and scrap iron" emitting a bluish light in Zhu Ganglie's hand seemed to be summoned by some powerful force, and its light instantly shone brightly.
Before anyone could react, the object shot towards the gilded cauldron with a "whoosh," like an arrow released from a bow. Everyone only saw a flash of blue light before their eyes, and the object was seamlessly joined to the gilded cauldron.
Only then did everyone realize that this thing was like a lid, firmly placed on the gilded cauldron.
Where the lid meets the gilded cauldron, runes flicker and merge, the light growing stronger and stronger, almost blinding to the eye.
Seeing that the commotion was getting bigger and bigger, Kongming quickly put the gilded cauldron into his storage bag.
boom……
Almost at the same instant the gilded cauldron was put away, a faint heartbeat was heard, and at the same time, a peculiar fragrance wafted over.
Although the sound was faint, everyone heard it clearly.
The sudden sound of a heartbeat struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer, making the already tense atmosphere even more solemn.
Zhu Bajie's face turned deathly pale. His eyes widened in terror as he pointed at the white jade coffin. "Big...Big Brother, this...the voice seems to be coming from inside the coffin..."
"I'm not deaf!" Kongming quietly stepped back.
bang... bang...
Two faint heartbeats were heard again, and the peculiar fragrance grew stronger, as if some terrifying creature was slowly awakening.
"Buzzing..."
Immediately afterwards, the sound of flapping wings surged in from all directions like a tidal wave.
"Oh no! Retreat!"
Kongming inwardly cried out in alarm. He immediately waved his sleeve, and a surge of powerful spiritual energy enveloped Zhao Yun, Su Yao, and Zhu Ganglie. He then used his ability to shrink the distance to an inch, instantly appearing thousands of feet away.
However, the scene outside was even more terrifying. Countless demons came from all directions, converging on the flower mound as if on a pilgrimage.
"Fourth-tier Rakshasa!"
Su Yao's red lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but the terrifying scene before her made her choke on her words.
Indeed, within the Ancient Profound Dojo, those appearing before everyone were mostly fourth-order Rakshasa, which were far more terrifying in appearance than the third-order Rakshasa they had seen before.
It was much larger than any we had seen before, with wingspans of over twenty feet on its back. Its face was pitch black, and its eyes resembled two wildly burning, bloodthirsty flames.
"It's all over...it's all over...it's all your fault, you monster, for making me dig this up, now look what's happened..."
Pigsy's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
Roar……
A Rakshasa, keenly aware of Kongming and his companions, flapped its wings and swooped down like a black arrow...
