Chapter 626: The Bizarre Manor

The Martial Arts Grandmaster was wielding a jet black dagger. The knife constantly radiated a powerful killing force. It was so terrifying that even seventh rank monstrous beasts did not dare to approach. It was another profound level weapon—a lethal dagger type profound level weapon.

The tall, slim elder stood on the main road. None of the monstrous beasts in the surrounding area had the nerve to go anywhere near him. Even the Giant Crocodile Beast King only stared at him, not daring to actually attack. It knew that once it fought the Martial Arts Grandmaster, it would be possible for the others to take the opportunity to make their way into the center square.

Mo Wen decided to stand with the group of people. He believed that they would not exclude him, given the current situation with monstrous beasts all around. After all, with him joining them, they had one more person worth of strength.

“Humph, so it was you. You are seeking death.”

To Mo Wen’s great surprise the Giant Crocodile Beast King immediately noticed him. Its eyes had a fierce light as it suddenly spoke. It furiously opened its mouth and a burst of flame leaped a distance of a hundred meters towards Mo Wen. The Giant Crocodile Beast King obviously intended to kill him.

Mo Wen was shocked. He had not expected that the Giant Crocodile Beast King would suddenly attack him right at this moment. What grudge or vendetta did they have between them? A Martial Arts Grandmaster was confronting the creature and yet it did not act, but instead suddenly turned to attack small fry like Mo Wen.

A dignified Beast King choosing to first attack a young ancient martial art practitioner like Mo Wen also surprised the other few human ancient martial art practitioners. None of them would have expected such a thing.

The Giant Crocodile Beast King’s actions immediately drew the attention and caution of all the human ancient martial art practitioners. They frantically looked in Mo Wen’s direction.

“Mo Wen!” Pei Fengwu had been in front of Mo Wen so had not known that he was there. Now that she had seen him she was also surprised. She would never have expected that she would encounter him here.

The flames swept towards them. The Beast King’s attack was so astonishing that it seemed as though an entire sea of flame had swept past in an instant. All of this had happened too suddenly for Mo Wen to react. All he had been able to do was to take out the Five Beast Hoops, turning them into a golden light shroud over his entire body. Then, unleashing the method of the Glory of Cloud, he caused a mass of nebula to cover the area around him.

“Master, please save him,” Pei Fengwu said somewhat anxiously.

No matter what, Mo Wen was still a member of her team. Also, Mo Qingtian had specifically instructed her to take care of Mo Wen.

The tall, slim elder standing beside her did not say a word, but his silhouette had already dashed out towards Mo Wen’s position. He was too late to save Mo Wen from the attack but could prevent the Giant Crocodile Beast King from attacking again. As long as Mo Wen could withstand one attack from the Giant Crocodile Beast King, he could save the youth.

However, the Mo Wen was so young. It was difficult to say whether he could withstand a simple blow from the Giant Crocodile Beast King.

The elder was very curious as to why his own disciple would care so much about this youth. What was the relationship between the two of them?

Rumble!

The Giant Crocodile Beast King launched an ordinary blow, but its power, for Mo Wen, was absolutely frightening. It was no weaker than an all-out attack from a monstrous beast as the pinnacle of the seventh rank. It was so tough for Mo Wen to even withstand that one attack.

With a loud bang, Mo Wen was sent flying. The golden light shroud did not even hold out against the power of the attack for two seconds before it shattered. The nebula also only lasted for an instant before completely dissipating. Fortunately, after passing through two layers of protection, the power of the Giant Crocodile Beast King’s attack had been reduced by eighty percent. Only twenty percent crashed into Mo Wen’s body, although that was enough.

Zong Changsheng, the elder sent by Pei Fengwu, had already flown over to Mo Wen. He reached out his hand and prepared to pull Mo Wen to safety. Despite the power of the Giant Crocodile Beast King and the effect its attacks were having on Mo Wen, it was not too difficult a task for Zong Changsheng with his Martial Arts Grandmaster cultivation.

“You bunch of good-for-nothing humans. You shall all die.”

Zong Changsheng did not realize that the Giant Crocodile Beast King had run out of patience. It was not willing to wait any longer. It furiously stuck out a huge claw and brought it down. A frightening whirlwind frantically moved through the air, sweeping towards Zong Changsheng.

Once its cultivation reached the Beast King realm, the intelligence of the Giant Crocodile Beast King was equal to that of a human. It was possible that a few people would take advantage of the Giant Beast King’s attacks on Mo Wen and Zong Changsheng in order to enter the center square. However, the Beast King realized that if it did not act now, the top human strong practitioners might join forces. That would most likely be harder to hold off.

The Giant Crocodile Beast King had already detected that on this main road alone, there were still two more human Martial Arts Grandmaster level strong practitioners heading towards it. Against three absolute Martial Arts Grandmaster, even the Giant Crocodile Beast King felt pressured.

The Giant Crocodile Beast King suddenly attacked, causing Zong Changsheng’s efforts to save Mo Wen to fail. All the elder could do was turn to block the Giant Crocodile Beast King’s attack.

The Giant Crocodile Beast King was so powerful that even Zong Changsheng did not dare to be careless. In a one-on-one, he absolutely would not be a match for the Giant Crocodile Beast King. Before Mo Wen had been in danger, Zong Changsheng had not moved. His goal was to wait for the other human Martial Arts Grandmaster to come and provide backup.

In the end, no one blocked Mo Wen’s silhouette as he was sent flying away from the city center. The terrifying power pushed him thousands of meters in an instant. He traveled in a parabola across the sky, finally landing in one of the manors.

The Giant Crocodile Beast King turned and swept a glance in Mo Wen’s direction. The corners of its mouth seemed to curl into a cold smile. Although he had not killed the human genius ancient martial art practitioner just now, the Beast King was confident that Mo Wen’s fall into the residential area would definitely result in his death.

Pei Fengwu frowned. Mo ‘s survival of the attack of the Giant Crocodile Beast King made her breathe a sigh of relief. She prepared to head over to find Mo Wen, but suddenly a few terrifying monstrous beasts slowly walked out from behind the Giant Crocodile Beast King. Each of them emanated terrifying auras. All of them were pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beasts.

They stared at the human ancient martial art practitioners on the field and slowly walked towards them.

Boom! Mo Wen smashed into a courtyard nearby. He fell with his limbs up in the air. He was seeing stars.

The ground of the manor was incredibly hard. The force of his fall as he came crashing down would have even shattered a piece of steel. Yet, the ground in the manor was unaffected. Instead, it was Mo Wen himself that was shocked into a daze.

The strength of his body had most likely reached the point where even bullets could not penetrate him. Unless it was a spiritual weapon, it would be difficult an ordinary knife or sword to harm him. Such a body was actually in excruciating pain from crashing into the ground.

The power of the Giant Crocodile Beast King was formidable. Receiving twenty percent of its attack had been enough to cause Mo Wen to suffer from severe internal injuries. Even when a beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner went all-out, they would most likely not be able to cause so much harm to Mo Wen’s physical body. Yet, a casual blow from the Giant Crocodile Beast King had almost claimed his life.

Mo Wen crawled up from the ground. He dusted the dirt off him and wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth. He looked at his surroundings.

He had landed in a very large courtyard. It had a garden, a pond, a lotus pavilion, a creek, and a small bridge. With its small bridge and flowing water, this place was antiquated, elegant and beautiful. In ancient times, this would certainly have been the residence of a large family.

Mo Wen walked around the manor once. There were many ancient buildings in the vicinity. All of them had clearly been abandoned a long time ago. Desolation was evident everywhere the eye could see. What had been a gathering place for humans in the past was now a ghost town.

Mo Wen didn’t enter any of the buildings; he didn’t even touch a single brick or tile in the manor. He had already discovered that there was something eerie about the houses in this ancient city. There were surely some reasons for those monstrous beasts to not dare enter them.

He strolled cautiously around the manor, searching for a way out. For some reason, he kept sensing there was an eerie aura in the manor. The feeling was odd. Mo Wen didn’t believe in ghosts or gods, despite actually encountering some of them. Yet, the ghastly feeling lingered. It seemed as though a bizarre shadow had crept into his mind without him noticing.

After searching for a long time, Mo Wen still couldn’t find the way out. The structure of the manor was very simple, but he couldn’t find the exit no matter how hard he searched. All sides were walls; the manor seemed to be sealed off completely. He wanted to fly out, yet he couldn’t fly no matter how many times he tried. Under the influence of the ancient city’s Anti-air Field, he couldn’t even jump over a wall that was five meters tall.

The Anti-air power in the manor had reached a terrifying limit, ten times more than what they experienced outside. Mo Wen speculated that even strong practitioners who were on a par with the Beast Kings would most likely not be able to even jump up in these houses.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, an eerie wind appeared out of the blue and blew past him. A sense of horror welled up in Mo Wen’s heart, causing him to shiver. He felt as though he was standing naked in the cold wind. It was so cold that his hands and legs froze.

Mo Wen took a deep breath. His body was tense. It had been a long while since he experienced the cold from nature. Everything was too bizarre.

All of a sudden, Mo Wen noticed there was an ancient well nearby. A corpse was leaning over the ancient well. The body had since long dried up and it was now simply a shriveled corpse. But the bizarre thing was that the clothes on the corpse’s body had not rotted. The color remained vivid and the cloth was silky smooth.

No matter how one looked at it, it was strange for a shriveled corpse to be wearing such colorful clothes. It seemed as though someone had put the clothes on the shriveled corpse recently.

Mo Wen pressed his lips together tightly and slowly retreated. He could detect a terrifying sense of danger from the shriveled corpse. It was just his intuition. However, his intuition right now was so clear, he was extremely afraid of what he could sense.

The shadow of death lingered in his heart, as though death was about to descend without any reason. Mo Wen believed that he was about to die. Fear filled his heart.

Mo Wen turned to run but suddenly found that he could not move his body at all. It seemed as though his body wasn’t his. He could not control it at all: it was as though his soul had been separated from his flesh. No matter how hard Mo Wen tried, he could not wrestle control over his body.

“In…vad…ers…die, tres…pass…ers…die…”

A chilly wind blew. An intermittent voice suddenly sounded in the manor. The voice seemed to be full of endless resentment, constantly circling around Mo Wen.

The shriveled corpse that had been lying on the ancient well bizarrely floated up. The manor had a terrifying anti-air force, but the shriveled corpse still rose.

The shriveled corpse had a head of disheveled hair. Its shrunken figure was wrapped up in its clothes. From afar, it looked like a child wearing the clothes of an adult.

The shriveled corpse’s face was completely twisted. Two deep eye sockets released a blood red glow.
