Chapter 135

Gu Chen did not say a word. He stared at the stone door and waved his hand a few more times.

Clang! Clang!

The consecutive slashes were all to no avail. The stone door was not damaged at all. Instead, Gu Chen's remaining essence force was completely drained. He almost blacked out.

"Do you have to go this far? You've already achieved the highest merit in this mission. Do you have to take this last secret room? "

"You're not in a good condition. If you continue to be stubborn, you might end up with a hard-to-recover internal injury."

Yang Zhen frowned. She thought that Gu Chen was stubborn about this stone door because he was eager to gain merit.

Anyone could tell that Gu Chen had been through a series of battles. He was almost at the end of his rope. His clothes were covered in blood. She did not know if it was hers. He looked terrible.

She did not know this guy. If he wanted to be stubborn, then so be it.

But perhaps the potential he displayed was too shocking. Yang Zhen realized that she was actually more concerned about him.

"Let me try too."

The few golden assassins did not believe it. They thought that if Yang Zhen could not open it, they might be able to. They took turns to try.

Gu Chen did not stop them. He only wanted to know if Lu Yichen could be inside. He was not just trying to be stubborn.

The few golden assassins used their treasures to attack. The power was more than ten times that of Gu Chen's. But they were shocked to find that it was as Yang Zhen had said. The stone door absorbed all the energy, causing the treasures to lose their power.

"I remember now. This should be a type of ore called Spirit Devouring Stone. It is very rare and precious. I did not expect the Nether God Palace to find such a large piece and make it into a door."

A golden assassin recognized the stone door. His eyes lit up.

"A precious Spirit Devouring Stone as a door. It seems like this secret room is the most valuable place in the entire God Creation Pavilion."

Everyone immediately realized. They were extremely curious about what was hidden behind the door.

"Let's break through the wall at the side. I don't believe this secret room was built with Spirit Devouring Stone!"

A golden assassin suggested.

"It won't work. I've already studied it. This secret room's structure is special. It is closely connected to the foundation of the entire God Creation Pavilion. If we destroy it, it will cause the entire underground level to collapse. If that happens, the other laboratories will be destroyed. "

Yang Zhen immediately denied.

"Since it was built so precisely, what should we do now? Ask Lord Qing Lin for help? "

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other. This Spirit Devouring Rock was so special, perhaps only Killing God Qing Lin could break it.

"Maybe I can use brute force to open it."

The Golden Assassin who saw that the stone door was a Spirit Devouring Stone said after some consideration.

"Brute force?" Everyone was stunned.

"That's right. Look at the gap between the top and bottom of the door. It should be able to be pulled up. Although the Spirit Devouring Stone can absorb energy, it can't absorb pure strength. "

"Then what are you waiting for? I'll give it a try!"

One of them immediately stepped forward and tried to pull the stone door from the bottom up.

Rumble.

He exerted all his strength, and the stone door swayed slightly, revealing a gap at the bottom!

"This method is feasible!"

Seeing this, everyone's spirits rose. Unfortunately, that person immediately wilted. His hands loosened, and he gave up while panting.

"Why is this Spirit Devouring Stone so heavy? I have three hundred thousand jin of strength in my body, but I can't even pull it up!"

He clicked his tongue.

"Apart from being able to absorb energy, the Spirit Devouring Stone's other characteristic is that it's extremely heavy. This Spirit Devouring Stone is so big, I estimate it to be at least a million jin. "

The Golden Assassin from before estimated.

"A million jin? If you can't activate your cultivation, it's not easy to reach this level with pure strength. You have to find a body cultivator. "

Everyone clicked their tongues.

Other than body cultivators, after stepping into the Divine Power Realm, normally no cultivator would specially train their strength. Therefore, be it Nirvana Realm or Divine Power Realm, in terms of physique compared to the physique realm, the body would at most become slightly stronger, but the strength would not increase much.

Although they were Golden Assassins and had reached the Immortal Realm, their bodies had once again transformed, and their lifespans had greatly increased, but the increase in strength was also limited.

This was immediately awkward. A king who could dominate a region was actually stumped by a stone door.

"Let me do it."

Seeing this, Gu Chen walked forward again.

"You still want to try? Can't you see that even your seniors can't open the door, do you think you … "

Yang Zhen was about to reprimand and ask Gu Chen to stay at the side and rest, but she saw him holding the bottom edge of the stone door with both hands, his muscles bulged, and he pulled from the bottom up!

Rumble.

The stone door made a loud noise, and then it was forcibly pulled up!

The door of the secret chamber opened, revealing a mysterious veil!

"You … you're amazing!"

Yang Zhen, who originally wanted to reprimand, forcibly held back her words. She felt that her internal injuries were not light.

This kid, what kind of monster is he!

Her heart was in a mess.

Gu Chen did not have any complacency. His eyes swept across the secret chamber, and he quickly walked in.

The stone door was opened, but it did not close quickly. A few Golden Assassins followed one after another.

Seeing everything in the secret chamber clearly, everyone's expression changed slightly.

The space of this secret chamber was much larger than the other laboratories, and it was very spacious.

On the ground of the secret chamber was a huge and complicated formation, and in the center was an octagonal platform, which looked very much like an altar.

On the altar, there were three glass coffins. They were especially eye-catching, and it was them that caused everyone's expression to change.

Gu Chen looked around, and there was no trace of anyone here. Lu Yichen was not here either!

"What's going on?"

His expression was a little ugly.

Yang Zhen passed through the formation and walked towards the altar.

"Be careful, we haven't figured out this formation yet." A Golden Assassin hurriedly reminded.

"What are you afraid of? This formation is clearly not operating. "

Yang Zhen was not concerned. Just as she said, nothing unexpected happened along the way through the formation.

Seeing this, everyone followed, including Gu Chen.

When they came to the side of the altar, the three glass coffins were clearly reflected in their eyes. Everyone was shocked to find that they were actually three empty coffins.

There was nothing inside the three glass coffins, and even the coffins had been opened.

"Look, there's blood in that coffin, and it hasn't dried yet!"

A Golden Assassin pointed at the coffin on the far left.

Everyone followed his gaze and looked over. Indeed, there were a few drops of dark red blood in the coffin, as if it had just dripped down not long ago and had yet to dry.

"Be careful, there was someone here not long ago!"

Everyone instantly became vigilant.

"Is it a person? I don't think so, right? "

A Golden Assassin teased. The owner of the blood in the coffin felt strange no matter how they thought about it. It might even be a zombie.

Everyone vigilantly checked the secret room and soon found out that they were overthinking. This place was empty, and there was no danger.

"What's going on?"

Everyone was confused, and a bunch of questions surged in their minds.

Who was the owner of the blood? Where did he go?

Also, from the tight security of this place, it should be Man with a Bamboo Hat's most important laboratory, but why was it empty?

Gu Chen was also confused, but he had one more question. Where was Lu Yichen? Was she dead?

Everyone walked out of the secret room with a bunch of questions. Yang Zhui just happened to come down from the upper floor with a grim expression.

"Big Brother, what's wrong?"

Yang Zhen asked.

"Something's not right."

Yang Zhui said solemnly.
