God of Defiance

"Um?"

Looking at the coffin rising slowly from the ground, Chu Tian was somewhat surprised.

Is this the so-called treasure left by the thief Yiming, a dark coffin?

This jet-black coffin exudes rich spiritual power. It is obviously made of top-grade spiritual wood. It is not only anti-corrosion and waterproof, but also strong enough to not be damaged. It can be called a top-quality coffin!

It's a pity that Chu Tian is still very young and doesn't have any use for this kind of thing yet.

"Boy, open the coffin and take a look!"

After the dark coffin was completely lifted from the ground, Balao reminded.

Chu Tian nodded, walked up to the coffin, looked down, then touched the edge of the coffin lid with his right hand, and pushed forward with all his strength!

Bang!

Soon, the coffin lid was pushed to the ground, revealing the scene inside the coffin.

"What, how is that possible!"

Chu Tian's eyes immediately widened and he stared at the middle of the coffin, with a look of disbelief on his face.

In the coffin, lay a middle-aged man who was dressed luxuriously and elegantly.

The man has short hair and is slightly short in stature. The most important thing is that this man is not breathing at all, but his skin is naturally rosy and his face is lifelike, as if he is asleep.

"Could this person be the great thief Yiming back then?"

After the shock in Chu Tian's heart subsided, he thought to himself.

If the person in front of him is really Yiming, a thief who was famous throughout the Wuyan Kingdom, he has obviously been dead for many years.

So how does he keep his body looking like new? What is the purpose of keeping the body in this state? How to explain the line of writing on the wall at the entrance to the outermost passage?

Especially where is the treasure mentioned in that line?

In an instant, a series of questions appeared in Chu Tian's mind. He frowned slightly and thought hard, but he could never find the answer.

"Boy, use your palm to gently press the corpse's abdomen!"

At this moment, Balao's calm voice reached Chu Tian's ears.

Hearing this, Chu Tian took a deep breath, raised his right hand, slowly stretched it into the coffin, and finally placed his palm on the abdomen of the corpse.

Chutian's heartbeat seemed to be a little faster, and various possible scenarios flashed through his mind.

For example, the corpse suddenly opened its eyes and even... sat up!

After a breath, Chu Tian took another deep breath, pressed his right arm downwards, and pressed lightly on the abdomen of the corpse.

"ah!!!"

Suddenly, a low roar that made the scalp numb and the whole body trembled came from the corpse's mouth. Immediately, the corpse's eyes that had been closed for countless years suddenly opened, and they were actually red!

Along with the eyes, there is also a mouth with slightly bulging cheeks.

Chu Tian's face turned pale, and he was immediately frightened and took several steps back, almost collapsing on the ground. Then he suddenly pulled out the broken knife, held it in his hand, and looked at the dark coffin in front of him with a vigilant expression.

"Hahahaha, boy, I never thought that a dead man could scare you like this!"

From the broken knife, Ba Lao's laughter full of contempt came out.

"dead?"

Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then put down the broken knife and walked slowly towards the dark coffin.

Soon, Chu Tian stood next to the dark coffin again and looked down.

Sure enough, the corpse was still lying quietly in the coffin, but its eyes were wide open and its mouth was completely open.

Just looking at the corpse's red eyes, Chu Tian felt a creepy feeling and hurriedly looked away and looked at the corpse's open mouth.

"Huh?"

Chu Tian suddenly let out a sigh.

In the corpse's open mouth, Chu Tian saw an emerald green crystal bead, so he put two fingers into the mouth and carefully took out the bead.

"It's exactly what I expected!"

Balao said.

Chu Tian asked hurriedly: "What do you mean?"

"This is not an ordinary bead, but an extremely precious wood spirit life bead. It contains a trace of wood spirit essence. In addition, since it has been placed in the mouth of a corpse for many years, I expected that this trace of wood spirit essence is good. A small part of the wood spirit essence should be converted into wood spirit evil spirit."

Balao analyzed.

Hearing this, Chu Tian's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he asked: "Ba Lao, I understand the evil spirit of the wood spirit, but what is the essence of the wood spirit?"

"Hehe, the essence of the wood spirit is extremely precious, and the evil spirit of the wood spirit is like garbage compared to it!"

Ba Lao chuckled.

When Chu Tian heard this, his expression changed slightly. Is the preciousness of the wood spirit essence so exaggerated?

Immediately, he continued: "The trace of wood spirit essence contained in this wood spirit life bead alone is enough to bring a seriously injured peak spiritual Yun realm expert back to life in a moment. You said the evil spirit of the wood spirit is compatible with it. Than, is it garbage?”

hiss!

Chu Tian's eyes widened instantly and he took a deep breath.

A trace of wood spirit essence can bring a seriously injured peak spiritual Yun realm expert back to life in a matter of seconds. How is this possible!

You know, that is a peak powerhouse in the Spiritual Yun Realm, not an ordinary Body Refining Realm warrior!

"So, if you exchange this Wood Spirit Life Orb with an alchemist now, the other party will definitely be willing to pay any price just to get a trace of Wood Spirit Essence!"

Ba Lao joked.

Chu Tian nodded, expressed deep agreement, and then asked doubtfully: "Ba Lao, since the thief Yiming got this Wood Spirit Life Pearl back then, why didn't he use it to treat his injuries?"

At the auction before, Chu Tian had heard someone mention that the last action of the thief Yiming was to sneak into the Wuyan Palace and successfully steal a valuable treasure. However, he was seriously injured by the royal family's masters and escaped in embarrassment.

"Hey, it's easy, because he can't do it!"

Ba Lao smiled.

Chu Tian was a little confused: "Can't do it?"

"The surface of this Wood Spirit Life Bead has been secretly sealed by someone in advance. He doesn't know how to unlock it, so naturally he can't absorb the Wood Spirit Essence in it to heal his wounds. If it is forcibly broken, the Wood Spirit Life Bead will inevitably self-destruct. !”

Ba Lao spoke eloquently.

"I see."

Chu Tian suddenly realized.

In an instant, he also understood why the body of the big thief Yiming could stay fresh for a long time. It must be the trace of breath escaping from the Wood Spirit Life Orb.

Thinking of this, Chu Tian hurriedly looked at the body in the coffin.

The Wood Spirit Life Orb was only taken out within a short period of a dozen breaths, but the corpse in the coffin had already begun to rot, and bursts of stench continued to come out.

Chu Tian immediately retreated several feet away from the coffin.

He put away the Wood Spirit Life Bead and prepared to study it carefully when he went back.

Immediately, Chu Tian's eyes quickly swept across the few people lying on the ground.

Shopkeeper Qin had died due to excessive blood loss. Su Xishui and Chu Xi were still breathing, but they were still unconscious.

"Forget it, it's dangerous here, let's get you out."

After Chu Tian pondered for a few breaths, he stepped out.

He struggled to carry Su Xishui and Chu Xi, returned the same way, and soon arrived at the exit of the gravity formation channel.

Chu Tian was originally worried about how to carry the two people through the passage, but after some testing, he found that the gravity formation in the passage had been closed at some point.

Chu Tian was immediately overjoyed, carried the two of them again, and walked through the passage.

Immediately, under the guidance of Balao, Chutian returned to the ground and stood in the ordinary small valley.

At this moment, the sky is slightly bright.

After Chu Tian put down the two of them, he looked down at the land under his feet and sighed secretly.

If Ba Lao hadn't been accompanying him during this treasure hunt and reminded him loudly at the critical moment, the final outcome would have been the destruction of the group!

Although some doubts still linger in Chu Tian's heart, it is no longer important.

Now that he has obtained the Wood Spirit Life Orb, he must find a way to refine the evil spirit of the Wood Spirit contained in it as soon as possible and improve his own cultivation.

Because, in almost three months, Tianji College’s enrollment assessment will begin.

At this moment, bursts of painful moans came from the mouths of Chu Xi and Su Xishui. Chu Tian hurriedly lowered his head and immediately judged that it would not take long for the two of them to wake up completely.

"I saved both of your lives, I should give you something in return."

Chu Tian sneered, took off the storage rings worn by the two of them, and left quickly.

About half an hour later.

"Damn it!"

"Which bastard stole my prince's storage ring!"

Chu Xi and Su Xishui woke up almost at the same time, and immediately burst into two extremely angry roars.

After the two roared angrily a few times, they looked at each other and quickly became calm.

At this moment, the two of them are in the depths of the Black Rock Forest. If they roar loudly like this again, they are likely to attract extremely terrifying monsters!

"Xishui, are you okay?"

Chu Xi got up and came to Su Xishui's side, with a flattering look on his face.

The anger lingered on Su Xishui's face, and she was too lazy to talk to Chu Xi. She just nodded lightly, still thinking about who rescued him and Chu Xi, and why they stole their storage rings?

After much deliberation, there are only two people who are the most suspicious, one is shopkeeper Qin, and the other is the mysterious figure!

When Chu Xi saw that Su Xishui was too lazy to pay attention to him, he was not angry and continued to greet her, acting like a good boyfriend.

Su Xishui glanced at Chu Xi, thinking that she would probably have to live with him in the next few years, the cold look on her face softened slightly, and she spoke a few words in reply.

After a while, the two stood up and walked cautiously out of the valley.

Chu Tian finally rushed back to Qianyang Hou Mansion before noon. After confirming that no one knew that he secretly left the house last night, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, he returned to his room, closed the door, sat cross-legged on the bed, and couldn't wait to take out the Wood Spirit Life Bead.

"Ba Lao, please teach me the secret to unlocking the seal now!"

Chu Tian whispered.

"Okay, just remember it!"

Balao nodded without hesitation.

Suddenly, a large amount of information appeared in Chu Tian's mind out of thin air.

Chutian's mind became tense, he quickly closed his eyes, seized the time, and began to learn and master this information.

An hour later, Chu Tianchang let out a long breath, slowly opened his eyes, and immediately placed the Wood Spirit Life Orb in front of him, and began to make secrets with both hands.

Next, a series of colorful seals were driven into the Wood Spirit Life Pearl, and bursts of crystal light immediately appeared on the surface of the Wood Spirit Life Pearl, flowing rapidly.

After a moment, a soft snapping sound suddenly came out.

Hearing this soft sound, Chu Tian, ​​who was sweating with beads of sweat, suddenly felt happy. The seal was finally broken!

call out!

However, at this moment, a ball of faint light suddenly shot out from the Wood Spirit Life Pearl, and shot toward Chu Tian's eyebrows at a terrifying speed that was lightning fast!
