"A petty trick, how dare you show off in front of me!"
King of Huainan sneered, and with a claw of his bone hand, he grabbed the fiery flying sword directly.
After subduing the flying sword, King of Huainan roared forward, spitting out a cloud of purple-black smoke that spread out.
It was clearly something harmful, and no one dared to touch it easily. They all retreated backward, putting distance between themselves and the purple-black smoke.
However, King of Huainan was relentless, his body floated forward, and his bone claws slashed out.
Seeing this, a burly man gritted his teeth and roared, "Steel Body!"
With that low growl, a metallic sheen appeared on the man's body. Then, King of Huainan's bone claws fell, striking the man's head. The expected fatal blow did not occur; instead, there was a crisp metallic clang. The burly man had endured King of Huainan's attack.
This was clearly someone from a world of superpowers. Their body could turn to steel, making their defense astonishingly strong. King of Huainan's bone claws could not tear his body apart.
A young woman saw this and shouted, "Chimchar!"
The woman raised her hand, and a white light suddenly appeared. Then, a strange-looking monkey emerged from the white light. Its body was like a meatball, covered in white fur, with black shackles on its wrists and ankles.
Everyone understood that this woman likely came from a beast-taming world.
King of Huainan pointed at the woman and issued a command, "Close Combat!"
Chimchar let out a series of strange cries, rushed towards King of Huainan, then leaped up and swung its palm at King of Huainan's head.
King of Huainan didn't even glance at Chimchar. With a casual wave, a gust of eerie wind swirled around, easily blowing Chimchar away.
Then, King of Huainan turned his attention to the burly man in front of him. His bone claw still held the man's head, and he let out a sinister smile before exhaling a breath of black smoke.
The black smoke drifted, and quickly entered the burly man's mouth and nose.
The next moment, the burly man's eyes widened, his entire body began to convulse, and he started coughing up black blood.
Although the burly man could use his superpower to make the surface of his body as hard as iron, so that even King of Huainan's sharp bone claws could not harm it, it was only the surface of his body. His internal organs were not protected.
"Hahahaha…" King of Huainan roared with laughter, dropping the corpse in his hand and shouting, "A bunch of arrogant fools, how dare you disturb my cultivation? I will kill you all!"
...
Meanwhile, Bai Ye was still running at full speed, quickly heading towards the exit of the passage.
To fight with King of Huainan?
Bai Ye had no such thoughts at all.
Because, within King of Huainan's tomb, King of Huainan was invincible.
No one could kill King of Huainan in his tomb!
The Forbidden Zone mission had already given a hint, but almost everyone had overlooked it.
"Forbidden Zone Mission 3: Obtain the Five Spirit Disk and leave King of Huainan's Tomb. Reward: Five Spirit Disk x1, Tai Xia Golden Elixir x1, Shard of God's Stone x5."
The description of the Forbidden Zone mission never mentioned killing King of Huainan, but rather obtaining the item and leaving the tomb.
Furthermore, unlike other missions, the rewards were not given afterwards. The Tai Xia Immortal Elixir and the Five Spirit Disk were in King of Huainan's tomb. One could take them, and whoever took the Five Spirit Disk would also receive five extra Shards of God's Stone.
Therefore, the key to this mission was...
Escape!
However, escaping King of Huainan's tomb was not an easy task.
Besides King of Huainan pursuing them...
Bai Ye suddenly stopped. An eerie wind blew from ahead, and then, some Yin soldiers wearing ancient armor and wielding weapons appeared at the other end of the passage.
These Yin soldiers were not tomb guardian monsters, but were summoned by King of Huainan using his abilities. They blocked the entrances and exits of various passages.
Bai Ye did not hesitate. As he rushed forward, he took out a deck of playing cards and threw them out continuously.
Puff, puff, puff...
The spinning playing cards continuously hit the bodies of the Yin soldiers, forcing them back. At this moment, Bai Ye suddenly leaped forward.
The high-frequency serrated blade in his hand vibrated, emitting a piercing sound, and slashed forward with force!
A silver light appeared. The serrated blade plunged into the head of a Yin soldier and then directly split the soldier's body in half.
The next moment, with a bang, the Yin soldier, split in two, emitted a dull thud, its body turning into a large cloud of flying ash that scattered with the wind.
After this strike, Bai Ye twisted the serrated blade, turning it into a dual-blade, and quickly slashed to both sides, cutting the bodies of two Yin soldiers in half, and then rushed out of the passage.
However, after passing through the passage and entering the tomb chamber outside, as Bai Ye was about to enter another passage, the sound of mechanisms turning suddenly echoed.
At the entrance of the passage ahead, stone blocks moved one by one, quickly sealing off the passage.
However, as the passage ahead was sealed, new passages appeared on both sides.
Bai Ye hesitated for a moment, turned left, and continued to run forward rapidly. About fifteen minutes later, a despairing situation occurred. Bai Ye found himself at a dead end, blocked by a wall.
Bai Ye decisively turned back to run, but at this moment...
Rumble!
With a loud bang, a section of the side wall collapsed. A bone hand shattered the wall, and then King of Huainan floated out from behind the wall.
"Vermin!" King of Huainan grunted, "Put down my Five Spirit Disk!"
"Why bother?" Bai Ye spread his hands. "You've been dead for ages. It's a waste to leave such a treasure in the tomb. You might as well let me take it out and let it see the light of day."
King of Huainan sneered, "Glazed tongue, die!"
King of Huainan clearly had no intention of wasting more words with Bai Ye. He directly reached out with his bone hand and grabbed forward. The smoke beneath him transformed into a giant hand that clawed towards Bai Ye.
"Ningshuang, Ice Barrier!"
Bai Ye quickly shouted, and then the Ningshuang Sword behind him flew to Bai Ye's front, bringing with it a silver cold wave. A wall of ice rose from the ground.
Boom!
The ice wall appeared fragile in the face of King of Huainan's attack. After being struck by the giant palm formed by smoke, it was instantly shattered into pieces.
However, at the moment the ice wall shattered, Bai Ye also sprinted forward, then threw himself out, sliding along the ground.
