Chapter 525 “The Monsters Inside the Chamber”
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
A chill instantly sprang up from beneath everyone’s leg, causing their faces to look left and right for answers.
“Wen Xu, what is this all about! Why would President Jia Hou be dead within North Qing’s Star Cave!” Alchemist Chou grills the old senior in charge of the North Qing team.
“Brother Chou, even if you ask me like this its pointless. When President Jia Hou entered the Star Cave, I was still a nameless nobody inside the Dan palace so how am I supposed to know?” Considering the reaction from Wen Xu, it doesn’t look like he’s lying about the old president’s death.
Besides, there’s nothing wrong with the man’s logic. It was twenty years ago when Da Xia’s leader in the alchemic field disappeared from the public’s eye. At the time, everyone just assumed the old fella merely went out for an outing like he usually does, never did the idea of him being deceased cross another person’s head.
“In any case, we must bury President Jia Hou first.” Ye Ling Yue suggests, lamenting the fact that someone of such high standing would meet an ending so cruel and in such a isolated place as well.
After the girl and Alchemist Chou finished cremating the corpse and collecting the ashes from the fire, the pair didn’t forget to show their respect by making a deep bow as a form of sending to the old master. Ling Yue and Chou may be at odds due to their past in the Royal Hospital, but they are still at the end of the day members of Da Xia’s Alchemist Tower.
“There’s a lever here.”
“Here as well!”
While the funeral was taking place on one end of the chamber, the others inside the room weren’t so interested. They’re too busy searching the place for any secret compartments or levers to get out of the closed off place. And very soon, further discoveries were made from all fourth directions of east, west, north and south.
This elated the group of course, but what came next after they pushed open the walls to reveal the secret compartments were beyond anything they could’ve imagined. Treasures, lots and lots of treasures!
“They’re martial tablets in this one!”
“Spirit artifacts, all black grade and up!”
“Dan pills, fifth grade and some long-lost recipes!”
“Treasures!!!”
Whether it be the martial skills imprinted into the tablets, the Dan pills that would warrant a fortune, or the rare artifacts and materials lying across the cabinets, everything by themselves are worthy to stimulate ones unnerving desire for possession.
If only these people had a mirror right now, if they did, they would undoubtedly notice the sort of twisted and greedy faces they were making. This included Hong Ming Yue and Luo Song as well despite their background within the Three Life Valley. There’s simply too much amazing treasures in sight!
“Hahaha! It’s a Beauty Cosmetic Dan pill, a sixth grade Beauty Cosmetic Dan pill! With this, I will never age in my outer appearance!” Running up first to make a grab was none other than the greedy Hong Yu Ying, the older sister from the Hong House.
“I will be invincible once I finish studying this martial skill. First place for the royal competition this year is surely mine!” Snapping out with bloodshot eyes was the girl’s brother, Hong Yu Long. He’s just as crazy as his sister.
“Nirvana Metal! This is a real chunk of Nirvana Metal! What Sky Armor Sect, what Nine Sect and Three Great Schools? I will be peerless once I finish refining this into a weapon for myself!” Picking up a chunk of alloy from the pile of rocks was Zhu Ge Yi, the traitorous elder from the Sky Armor Sect.
“Don’t touch these things!” Seeing how crazed everyone was acting then, Ling Yue’s mind suddenly went back to the old president’s dying words on the floor.
Don’t, do not… Do not what? Do not touch?
When President Jia Hou Shu died, there were no treasures anywhere close to the dehydrated corpse. Considering the man’s high ability, its unrealistic to believe someone so great would miss the small compartments hidden behind these walls. Therefore, there’s only one possible explanation for all of this, which just so happens to coincide with a couple of others that’s also able to read this conflicting dilemma.
Naturally Feng Shen and Dao Nu would be part of the group that doesn’t move, but the most surprising one had to be the Kai Jiang Manor’s team. There’s not a single soldier who moved forward like they’re completely impervious to the temptation.
“And why won’t I touch the stuff here Ye Ling Yue. I know you are jealous of me. Once I take this Cosmetic Beauty Dan pill then I can be even more beautiful than you! By then, His Highness would love me instead of liking you!” Laughing until her whole body was an erratic mess, Hong Yu Ying carried a strong level of craziness in her eyes.
“Sister, do not touch those Dan pills.” By now Hong Ming Yue the younger sister has also sensed the danger lingering in the air and yelled out her warning.
“Even you are trying to stop me. Don’t think I don’t know, you have never wanted me to do well. I’ve never been as beautiful as you since our childhood, and now the whole world revolves around you.” The more she talked, the more heated the older sister became, “I won’t let any of you see me do bad!”
From the very beginning, Hong Ming Yue have never been all that close with her own sister. Now to be rebuked so thoroughly, she has had it and turned away, thus leaving the other girl free to scrape away at the other Dan pills in the compartments.
“Haha, I will soon become so beautiful that no one in the world can compare with me.” Dancing around gleefully, Hong Yu Ying was enjoying her highest point in life when she suddenly felt something breaking into her belly from beneath the thigh area.
In that second, all colors of happiness had dissipated, leaving the girl in a horrific state of terror.
“Ming Yue, Yu Long, help me… something is trying to break out of my stomach!” All white now, her body shakes profusely.
Then suddenly, the girl began to vomit uncontrollably. This terrified Hong Yu Ying of course, but the biggest scare came when she tasted the flavor of iron in her throat and the crunching sound of flesh from within!
What came next could only be described as a horror show. First it was the abrupt appearance of a long slimy worm that thrust itself out of the girl’s mouth. Squirming and wiggling left and right, the very nature of such a creature spelled trouble for all who witnessed its birth!
!!!
“What kind of monster is that! What kind of monster is that!”
Watching his twin sister being nibbled to her end from the inside out, and at such a quick pace as well, Hong Yu Long had lost all senses of color from his face and staggered to the floor.
“Corpse Dragon, a parasitic creature. Once its eggs are hatched and the newborn breaks into its hosts belly, it will then consume the host’s body for nutrients.” It was then that Chen Minzhi’s cool and indifference voice drifted over. But unlike his tone though, those eyes were radiating a strange light like he’s very much enjoying the show.
For Ling Yue whose watching everything from her end, she’s starting to grow ever increasingly suspicious of this so called “Chen Minzhi”. Whether it be the aura or the way the man acts, its totally different from her encounter back at the ancient forest. He’s too indifferent like a cold-hearted murderer….
