Chapter 17: Bronze Fox-mask Corpse, Round Light Technique
Hearing the prompt sound from his ear, Su Mo couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy in his heart.
He hadn’t expected that after swallowing the Kirin’s Gall, he would immediately obtain the Kirin Bloodline and even become a Longevity Physique!
It must be known that Little Brother had the Kirin Bloodline, so he was also a Longevity Body.
Little Brother’s father was a member of the Zhang Family, and his mother Baima was a doctor in Tibet. After the two met and fell in love in Tibet, they had him, but shortly after his birth, his mother Baima became a sacrifice for the King of Hell’s corpse riding and was buried by the lamas of Tibet in the Tibetan Sea Flower field.
His father possessed Kirin Blood, while his mother had the extremely noble King of Hell Bloodline, so Little Brother’s bloodline was extremely pure, not only having the Kirin Bloodline but also the King of Hell Bloodline passed down from his mother!
Although Little Brother looked only in his twenties, no one actually knew his real age.
He was a true Longevity Body!
And now Su Mo had swallowed the Kirin’s Gall and actually obtained the Longevity Body as well. While his lifespan greatly increased, it also brought powerful enhancements to his bloodline and physique!
Thinking of this, Su Mo couldn’t help but feel extremely delighted in his heart.
At this time, Uncle Wu San and the others had also quickly arrived on the stone platform.
“Master Su, I didn’t expect you to arrive a bit faster!”
Uncle Wu San wasn’t embarrassed at all and still greeted Su Mo with a full smile on his face.
Su Mo was very clear about his little schemes and naturally didn’t take them to heart, so he faintly smiled:
“You’re pretty fast too!”
Uncle Wu San glanced at A Ning and couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled:
“This is…”
Su Mo said faintly:
“She was the team leader of the previous camp, but all the team members under her died in the tomb chamber ahead!”
“Oh…”
Uncle Wu San let out an “oh,” but when his eyes turned to A Ning, they carried a bit more complex expression.
Little Brother naturally didn’t say much and just glanced at A Ning.
Fatty, on the other hand, had his eyes fixed tightly on the corpse on the stone platform, already scheming in his mind how to take the grave goods.
While Su Mo was talking with Uncle Wu San, Fatty had already reached out with one hand toward the female corpse and directly picked up the Eight-Layered Treasure Box on her body.
“Dead fatty, don’t touch anything randomly!”
Uncle Wu San saw this and quickly shouted to stop him.
Fatty rolled his eyes and sneered:
“This Lu Wang Palace doesn’t have anyone’s name written on it, nor is there a first-come-first-served rule. Everyone is here for the grave goods, so why can’t I touch it!”
“When Old Fatty arrived at this Lu Wang Palace, I was nearly suffocated to death by the corpse qi from the seven-star coffin, almost fed to the corpse beetles, and nearly got my head blown off by your people’s gunshot. Isn’t risking life and death all for these things!”
While muttering, he went to tug at the Eight-Layered Treasure Box hanging around the female corpse’s neck, completely treating Uncle Wu San’s words as wind past his ears.
Su Mo listened and couldn’t help but smile:
“Fatty, even if you take this thing down, do you know how to open it?”
Earlier, Su Mo had stopped Pan Zi from shooting, so Fatty had some goodwill toward Su Mo. Hearing Su Mo’s words now, he was momentarily stunned, lowered his head to look at the Eight-Layered Treasure Box on the female corpse’s chest, and couldn’t help but frown.
This Eight-Layered Treasure Box had a very ancient and ingenious design. From the outside, it showed no seams at all, only a tiny keyhole.
Such items used by ancient nobles were extremely exquisite and could not be opened by brute force unless the key was found.
If it was damaged from the outside, it wouldn’t be worth a single cent!
Fatty scratched his head and said:
“Do you know how to open it?”
Su Mo smiled:
“Go kiss this woman, and she’ll tell you how to open it!”
Fatty grinned upon hearing this:
“Brother, are you joking with me? Fat Master doesn’t go for that!”
Su Mo smiled slightly, walked to the stone platform, and suddenly extended two fingers to pinch open the female corpse’s mouth.
The female corpse’s mouth opened, and right on her tongue tip was a bronze key!
Fatty was stunned, then his face broke into a huge grin:
“Brother, awesome! No wonder you told me to kiss her!”
With that, Fatty quickly dug the key out of the female corpse’s mouth, then yanked off the Eight-Layered Treasure Box, lowered his head, and began studying it, preparing to open the treasure box.
At that moment, the female corpse suddenly trembled, then sat up abruptly like a reflex, her two arms shooting out and instantly hugging Fatty.
Fatty was so scared that his whole body shuddered:
“Damn it, did it have to be that Old Fatty had to kiss you!”
Saying that, he hurriedly turned to struggle free, but the female corpse’s arms held him extremely tightly, and they rolled off the jade bed together.
At the same time, the bronze fox-faced corpse that had been lying on the jade bed suddenly sat up, its hands reaching straight for Little Brother in front of it.
Little Brother had been silently standing by the side, but his reaction was extremely fast. Seeing the bronze fox-faced corpse reach out with its arm, he immediately drew the Black Gold Ancient Blade from his back and slashed down at its arm.
Clang!
The bronze fox-faced corpse was wearing armor, and the blade of the Black Gold Ancient Blade struck the armor, immediately producing the sound of metal clashing.
Although the fox-faced corpse’s arm wasn’t severed, it was smashed down by Little Brother’s strike.
But at this moment, the eyes behind the bronze mask suddenly opened.
Its eyes were actually blue, filled with eeriness and coldness, its gaze seeming to pierce deep into the soul!
“Watch out!”
Su Mo saw the bronze fox-faced corpse open its eyes and look at Little Brother, immediately feeling alarmed and quickly shouting a warning.
This bronze fox-faced corpse was extremely eerie, its corpse eyes containing the power of the Round Light Technique, capable of confusing and controlling people’s minds!
As soon as Little Brother’s gaze met the fox-faced corpse’s eyes, he immediately felt his mind sway, his eyes becoming somewhat dazed.
But at that moment, the Kirin Bloodline Power within his body suddenly awakened, and with a loud bang in his mind, his eyes immediately cleared.
The Kirin Bloodline Power in his body had a natural suppressive effect on evil and eerie things, so although he was affected by the Round Light Technique, the bloodline power immediately awakened and directly suppressed the Round Light Technique.
“Beast!”
Little Brother glared at the fox-faced corpse and suddenly let out an angry shout, thrusting his right hand’s Fa Qiu Finger straight at the fox-faced corpse’s eyes.
Pfft!
The fox-faced corpse’s eyes were instantly pierced by Little Brother’s Fa Qiu Finger, spurting out two streams of black water, and the corpse trembled all over before falling backward onto the jade bed.
As soon as the corpse fell, a light clicking sound suddenly came from beneath the jade bed.
Several arrows suddenly shot out from the stone platform behind the jade bed!
It turned out that there was a Ji Guan under the jade bed. The brief tussle between the bronze fox-faced corpse and the white-gowned female corpse had triggered the mechanism under the bed, activating the hidden crossbow on the stone platform!
These arrows shot out suddenly, completely covering the area where Little Brother was!
Little Brother had just stabbed down the bronze fox-faced corpse and had no time to react, and these arrows completely enveloped his position, leaving him no way to retreat!
Just as the arrows were about to reach Little Brother’s chest in an instant, a sword light like a pale moon suddenly thrust forth, instantly turning into a mass of sword shadows in mid-air.
Slash slash slash…
The arrows were instantly shredded by the sword light!
