Chapter 785

Tomb of an Emperor

Over the next three days, Lin Yu continued to comprehend the Time Dao while increasing his Genuine Origin Realm.

In addition to the various Dao Rules, the speed of cultivation in the Enlightenment River was also much faster than the outside world.

In the past month, Lin Yu had already raised his cultivation to the intermediate stage of the Ninth Cycle of Nirvana, and in the past few days, his cultivation had advanced to the advanced stage of the Ninth Cycle of Nirvana.

With his current strength, he was considered an expert among the Rank Three Regal Lords. If he were to fight with Xue Jingyi, he was at least 70% confident that he would win.

Soon, ten days had passed. Other than Lin Yu, the other nine people had improved to varying degrees.

Jiang Lanyue's strength had reached the Great Completion Realm of Rank One Regal Lord. She was only a step away from Rank Two Regal Lord. As for how much progress she had made in the Time Dao, only she knew.

The only thing that could be confirmed was that her strength was no weaker than Lin Yu's. In fact, the strength of the two of them had completely surpassed the rest of the people.

For example, Xuan Hengdao, Mu Qingshuang and the others, they had clearly made quite a bit of progress in this period of time. However, when compared to Lin Yu and Jiang Lanyue, they were still far inferior. As time passed, the gap between them would only grow larger and larger.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

At a certain moment, an invisible force appeared and pushed Lin Yu and the others out of the Enlightenment River. Soon after, they appeared in a large hall.

The hall was gloomy, and the air was filled with an aura of death that was dense to the point it couldn't be dispersed. It imperceptibly brought about an extremely great pressure, and one's mood couldn't help but become heavy.

"What a dense Death Qi!"

Lin Yu frowned slightly. He was not affected by the deathly silent and oppressive atmosphere. However, the dense deathly aura had affected his strength to a certain extent.

In this place, he had to preserve some True Yuan at all times to resist the surrounding Death Qi. Otherwise, once the Death Qi invaded his body, it wouldn't have any effect in a short period of time, but in the long run, it would even affect his foundation.

In other words, he could only unleash 90% of his usual strength. This was actually not a big deal. He was just afraid that as they went deeper, the death aura here would become heavier and heavier, further increasing the suppression on their strength.

Wu wu wu!

Right at this moment, a wave of shrill cries suddenly resounded, and a gust of wind blew. After that, a few tens of ghostly figures emerged from the gust of wind. They cackled evilly as they pounced towards Lin Yu and the others.

"You're courting death!"

Xuan Heng Dao snorted coldly and took the initiative to attack. His palm slapped at the few ghostly shadows that were attacking him.

Huala!

With just one strike, the ghostly shadows were completely smashed into pieces. However, in the next moment, the cold laughter sounded again. The shattered bodies of the ghostly shadows quickly merged together, turning into an even larger evil spirit.

With a sinister laugh, the evil ghost pounced at Xuan Hengdao with lightning speed. Compared to the previous ghost shadows, this evil ghost was several times stronger.

"Not good!"

Xuan Hengdao's expression changed. He subconsciously struck out with his palm and collided with the evil ghost. With a "bang", his body immediately retreated six or seven steps before he managed to stabilize himself.

"This thing is actually so troublesome!"

Xuan Hengdao's expression was ugly. It was just an evil ghost, but its strength had reached the Rank Two Complete Regal Realm. It seemed that this Tomb of an Emperor was far from as simple as he had imagined.

"Sword Light Line!"

At the same time, Lin Yu also encountered several ghostly shadows. His reaction was extremely fast. With a wave of his sword, a sharp sword light instantly tore the ghostly shadows apart.

Just like what Xuan Hengdao encountered, after being torn apart, the ghostly shadows quickly merged into an even more powerful evil ghost that pounced at him with lightning speed.

"Oh?"

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows, but his movements did not stop. He once again struck out with his sword. It was still a sword light line, but compared to before, he used 10% more strength.

Whoosh!

The Sword Qi swept out, and in an instant, the Evil Spirit was split in half again. However, in the next moment, the two halves split into two smaller Evil Spirits, and with a speed even faster than before, they attacked him again.

"Interesting. I'd like to see how many times you can resurrect."

Lin Yu sneered. Although the evil ghost's methods were strange, in the face of absolute strength, these methods were useless.

Whoosh!

A sharp sword light flashed as he swung his sword twice in a cross, killing the two evil spirits once again. This time, the two evil spirits screamed in unison, their bodies fused into one again, and then directly fell to the ground.

In the next moment, the evil ghost turned into a drop of pitch-black blood. This blood was dim and lifeless.

"So it's just a drop of blood!"

Lin Yu's face sank. It was only a ghost formed from a drop of blood, yet it possessed such strength. Emperor Qing was right. The Tomb of an Emperor was indeed a place of fortune and treasures, but it was also filled with danger. Without sufficient strength, one could only add a corpse here.

Lin Yu's face became solemn as he looked towards Jiang Lanyue.

Just like him, Jiang Lanyue dealt with the situation very easily. Very quickly, she killed the ghost that attacked her. During this process, she did not even take a breather.

As for the others, it was not so easy. People like Gu Sansheng and Xuan Hengdao were still fine, but people like Ao Jing and Hao Bai who were weaker were already very strenuous.

However, after a dozen breaths of time, everyone still succeeded in killing the ghost that attacked them. Just like Lin Yu, when they saw that the ghost was formed from a drop of blood, they were no longer relaxed.

Rumble!

Right at this moment, the entire hall suddenly shook violently as if there was an earthquake. Subsequently, countless sharp black arrows appeared from all directions in the hall and shot violently towards everyone.

"Watch out!"

Everyone swiftly reacted. Amongst them, Ao Jing even directly utilized his half-demon state. His figure leaped up and slapped out with his claw, instantly shattering a few dozen arrows into pieces.

Swish!

However, right at this moment, the wall near him suddenly cracked open, and a powerful suction force instantly enveloped Ao Jing and directly sucked him in.

"What!?"

This scene caused everyone to be shocked. However, in the next moment, the ground beneath their feet ceaselessly cracked open, and numerous large holes appeared.

"AH!"

Hao Bai and the others cried out in surprise. They missed a step and directly fell into the large holes, and their figures instantly vanished. In the blink of an eye, only Lin Yu and Jiang Lanyue remained.

Crack! Crack!
