“There is nothing impossible in this world.”
Qin Chen sneered, raising his hand and suddenly striking the wall behind the coffin.
Boom!
The entire wall trembled violently, and a passage immediately appeared before everyone, leading deep into the palace.
Whoosh!
With a flash, Qin Chen transformed into a streak of lightning and instantly rushed into the passage, disappearing from sight.
“Go!”
“That skeleton helmsman must be inside.”
“Let’s go in and kill him together.”
Amidst the shouts of anger, the remaining dozens of Wu Wang simultaneously surged forth, diving into the passage.
The group swiftly sped through the passage, each one resembling a bolt of lightning. Moments later, the passage opened up, revealing a magnificent underground hall before their eyes.
In the center of this underground hall stood a mysterious altar, and in front of the altar floated a humanoid "skeleton frame." Its bones were a dark red color, and pieces of flesh scattered around, wrapping the skeleton frame. In its eye sockets flickered two pools of deep red flames, surrounded by a layer of hazy gray mist.
The mysterious skeleton frame locked its dark eyes onto the crowd, and they instantly felt as if struck by lightning, seeing ghostly shadows flicker before them.
“This spiritual aura, could it be the strength of a Martial Emperor? No, it’s somewhat similar to the strength of a Martial Emperor, but still far off; at most, it’s close to half a step into Martial Emperor. Otherwise, it wouldn’t need to be so troublesome, and could easily slay us, nor could it possibly enter this Heavenly Demon Secret Realm.”
The crowd’s gazes flickered uncertainly, and they finally let out a slight sigh of relief.
As long as the opponent wasn’t at the eighth level Martial Emperor level, with their peak seventh level triple cultivation and so many of them working together, they weren’t afraid of any challenge.
“I didn’t expect you bunch of ants could actually find this place, which is beyond my expectations!”
The black skeleton's gaze was indifferent, and a token suddenly appeared in its left hand. With a wave of the token, it instantly conjured a terrifying gray airflow that swept toward the crowd.
“Hmph!”
Qin Chen coldly snorted, and the Fan Tian Seal appeared in his hand, descending toward the gray airflow.
Boom!
The Fan Tian Seal collided with the gray airflow, intertwining with each other, the might immense, causing the hall to tremble slightly.
“What kind of freak is this kid? A mere peak mid-stage seventh level Wu Wang, yet possesses such terrifying combat power…”
The skeleton helmsman’s expression turned grim as a white bone whip reappeared in his right hand, with black patterns swirling on it. With a light flick, he unleashed a wave of dark light and flame shadows, resembling a roaring burning bone dragon.
“Thunder Wing Slash!”
Qin Chen swung his sword, and on the mysterious rusty sword, lightning erupted, forming a thunderous sword light over ten feet long, crackling as it slashed toward the skeleton helmsman.
“Hmph, mere tricks.”
The skeleton helmsman sneered, waving the token in his left hand while wielding the bone whip in his right, suppressing everyone else while engaging Qin Chen.
Crack!
Boom!
Qin Chen's sword light strike, capable of heavily injuring a peak seventh level triple Wu Wang, was easily resolved by the skeleton helmsman’s whip.
Facing so many experts, the skeleton helmsman remained composed, his expression cold and calm, his aura thick and towering. As his true essence flowed, it seemed to invoke the might of heaven and earth, far surpassing Li Xuanji and the other peak seventh level triple Wu Wang in terms of profundity.
“This person must have once been at least at the eighth level Martial Emperor level, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to release such might with this cultivation. Preliminary estimates suggest that the current strength of this skeleton helmsman is only about one-tenth or one-twelfth of his original strength, or even less.”
