Chapter 193 Neither Life nor Death
"This...is this his strength?"
Standing behind Chen Ming, looking at Chen Ming who was now filled with purple and gold blood and glowing like a god, Hemdan was breathing rapidly, his eyes were red with deep desire.
There was no direct attack, just the instinct of Qi was exposed, which caused such a scene, which was more powerful than any warrior Hemdan had seen in the past.
If it were to attack with all its strength, Hemdan could hardly imagine what the scene would be like.
"Still not retreating?"
Ahead, Chen Ming frowned, looked at the group of corpses not far away, and spoke calmly.
These people in front of him may have been extremely powerful when they were alive, but now they have been dead for many years, and even though their bodies have begun to revive for some unknown reason, they cannot be his opponents.
However, despite this, he did not want to take action rashly.
Behind these corpses in front of you, there is an inexplicable force supporting them. Once touched, the unknown and curses contained within may be triggered, and all kinds of strange things may happen.
Chen Ming came here this time, not to break the forbidden area and sweep away evil spirits, but just to confirm some things, and didn't want to cause so much trouble. If the corpses in front of him can retreat on their own, it will naturally be the best result.
In front of me, figures remained silent one by one. Feeling the aura on Chen Ming's body, they raised their heads one by one and looked at Chen Ming, but there was no sound at all.
It's normal to have no sound. These are dead people in front of me. It would be strange if they could still make sounds.
"You...shouldn't have entered..."
An old, hoarse voice suddenly sounded, as if it was squeezed out, it sounded very stiff and not as natural as when ordinary people speak.
Hearing this voice, Chen Ming was startled, turned around and looked forward, and his eyes gradually focused on one of the corpses.
It was a corpse that looked like a middle-aged woman, and the residual aura on her body was so powerful that Chen Ming couldn't help but be alert. She must have been among the same people who returned to the source during her lifetime.
At this moment, the woman opened her eyes, staring at Chen Ming with dead eyes, as if she was sizing him up.
"you are still alive?"
Chen Ming was stunned. He was shocked at this moment. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
The person in front of me is definitely dead. His blood and vitality have dried up, his body has dried up, and his soul is no longer visible. He is already considered dead and cannot be dead anymore.
As a returnee, Chen Ming would never be wrong about this.
But how can the dead speak?
"It is true that he is dead, but he is still alive... he is sort of... between life and death. Until the moment when he finally breaks free, he cannot tell whether he is alive or dead..."
On the opposite side, the woman spoke, her body still looked the same as before, and there was no reaction from any living person.
"You...shouldn't have walked in here..."
"Senior, what do you mean by this?"
Chen Ming managed to calm down, looked at the woman in front of him, and asked with some confusion.
"As an emperor's body, once you walk into it, the curse left in it will be triggered..."
The woman spoke, her voice gradually calming down: "That's why I'll be here later..."
"But...it was a mistake after all. You are not the same imperial body you used to be..."
"That imperial body back then?"
Chen Ming frowned, feeling filled with doubts for a moment.
He wanted to ask, but found that the person in front of him was no longer there.
After the man's consciousness recovered, and under his influence, the group of corpses left directly without continuing to entangle with Chen Ming.
There was only one sentence in the distance that spread far and wide.
"If you want to go up, declare yourself an emperor, and don't let out the aura of your emperor's veins..."
These words were left by the woman, reminding Chen Ming to hide the aura of the imperial body from his body to avoid attracting something more terrifying.
"Emperor body..."
Chen Ming frowned, looked at the direction where the corpses disappeared, and thought of something.
Behind him, Helmdan was already stunned.
"Emperor's body..."
Although his ancestors have lived in Tianzhou for a long time and he is a foreigner, it does not mean that he does not understand the meaning of the imperial body.
On the contrary, being born in a foreign land, he knows the legendary name of Emperor Ti much better than the average person.
The imperial body is a supreme physique that can only emerge from the emperor's veins. It is also the body of the legendary emperor. The founding ancestors of all dynasties all have the same imperial body.
At that time, Taizu of Daqian Dynasty had the body of Emperor Tianming.
"Could it be..."
In an instant, he thought about a lot, his face suddenly turned red, and he looked at Chen Ming with a strange look.
"Pack your things."
In the distance, looking at the direction where the corpses were leaving, Chen Ming sighed softly, then turned back and said, "Light the fire, and we will leave early tomorrow morning."
"yes!"
Hearing the order, Helmdan trembled, a smile appeared on his face, and he quickly went to work aside.
Seeing Hemdan's reaction, Chen Ming shook his head. He roughly understood what he was thinking, but didn't say anything.
In fact, there is no need to say anything at this time. Sometimes not saying anything can have the best effect.
For example, at this moment, before Chen Ming could speak, Hemdan was thinking about it on his own, and his whole face turned red as if he had been given a shot of chicken blood.
After this night, perhaps because the consciousness of the deceased had recovered, Chen Ming and the two of them did not encounter any strange things again.
This calm atmosphere actually made Helmdan, who had been mentally prepared, feel relieved.
On this day, they walked under the Blood Mountain.
Blood Mountain is a very tall mountain with no vegetation on it. The entire mountain is bright red, as if soaked in blood, hence its name.
At the foot of the mountain, old steps are quietly displayed here. They look like they were built by people in the past, and they look like they have been there for some time.
After arriving here, a strange heavy feeling pressed on Chen Ming.
In Chen Ming's eyes, the blood mountain in front of him is like a terrifying beast that devours everything. It is ferocious and terrifying, weird and mysterious, and is ready to open its mouth at any time to devour anyone who passes by.
The steps in front of us are like the mouth of a giant beast. They look bloody and make people feel frightened when they look at them from a distance.
Standing there, Chen Ming took a deep breath and then walked forward.
In his body, the golden Buddha's blood is flowing, cooperating with the Nirvana Sutra that has been promoted to its peak, suppressing the Tianchen Emperor Vein in the body, preventing its breath from being exposed and causing some unpredictable changes.
The warning from that night still rings in his ears. Although Chen Ming is not afraid of the unknown, it is better to have one less thing to worry about.
Sure enough, after he locked the emperor's blood in his body, the strong malice that was coming from the surroundings all the time began to shrink, and finally only a little bit remained, still staying here.
"The famous Blood Mountain, I can actually climb it one day."
Walking all the way up the steps from the bottom, the moment he stepped onto the mountain peak, Helmdan sighed deeply, and he still has some lingering fears.
