The Iron Coffin

Before obtaining the scroll and entering the cave, Zhuowen had secretly sent a voice transmission to Lhos, asking him to stop Canaan and Gatha from acting rashly.

Canaan and Gatha both took a few steps back. Lhos had a Saint Physique. If he really wanted to stop them, Canaan and Gatha wouldn't be able to break through Lhos's body and enter the cave even if they used all their skills.

"Xiao Hei, is what you said true?

Was Fuxi really in the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground? "

Zhuo Wen quickly walked into the depths of the dark tunnel. At the same time, he sent a voice transmission in his heart.

Previously, when Elder Song mentioned the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, Xiao Hei and Cheng Huang had both turned pale with fright. Later, after Chi died and Elder Yan took out the scroll, Xiao Hei urged Zhuowen to take it and enter the depths of the cave.

The reason was that Fuxi, who had disappeared back then, was very likely to be in the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground.

"I'm not too sure. Fuxi's disappearance back then was too strange. His aura in the Heavenly Armor Continent completely disappeared. I originally thought that Fuxi might have gone to that place to ascend, but now that I've heard about the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, I think it's more likely that Fuxi is here," Xiao Hei said in a low voice.

Cheng Huang fell silent, which was rare. However, Zhuowen could feel the excitement in Cheng Huang's heart.

As the artifact spirit of the Fuxi Cauldron, Fuxi could be said to be the master who gave Cheng Huang life. He was like a father figure.

"Elder Song said that the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground is a place where the dead are buried. If Senior Fuxi is there, doesn't that mean …"

Zhuowen didn't continue. His meaning was very clear. If Fuxi was in the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, he would also be a dead man.

"Zhuowen, that's where you're wrong. Living people can actually live in the Serene Corpse Danger Ground. That's because not only are the dead buried here, there are also people who are about to die," Xiao Hei suddenly said.

"People who are about to die?" Zhuowen was a little surprised.

"The so-called people who are about to die are experts who are seriously injured. In order to stop their injuries and prolong their death, they will bury themselves in the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground."

"Normally, those who choose to do this are the supreme and powerful Saints, and only when they have no other choice would they choose to bury themselves. After all, being buried in the Nether Corpses Extremis for thousands of years might not be able to come out. The restrictions inside are too great."

At this moment, Cheng Huang's eyes were filled with confusion. He said, "When the Fuxi Cauldron shattered all those years ago, I was forced to separate from it and fall into a deep slumber. Although I don't know exactly what happened after that, I do know that master was heavily injured."

"Back then, the best choice was to find the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground and find a place with good feng shui to bury yourself there. That way, you could stop your injuries from worsening and increase your lifespan."

Zhuowen was rather unsettled after hearing that. The Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground was not simple. A place with good feng shui could actually increase one's lifespan by a certain amount. This was basically fighting against the heavens. It was a heaven-defying act.

"So, you want me to enter the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground?" Zhuowen asked in a deep voice.

Old Yan and Old Song's expressions changed at the mention of the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground. Coupled with the ancestral teachings of the Jia clan, it was clear that the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground was definitely not a good place.

Xiao Hei and Cheng Huang glanced at each other. In the end, they both bowed and said, "Zhuowen, this matter involves Fuxi, so I hope you can help us."

"Of course, the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground is not a good place after all. If there is any danger, leave and seal the crack. What do you think?"

Zhuowen furrowed his brows. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Then I'll go in and take a look. But just in case, I've decided to use a puppet to enter the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground."

The Treasure Vault of the Blue Dragon Palace contained treasures that Taoist Cang Long had collected over the years. Among them, there were some puppets that were specially used to arrange troops.

It was too risky for Zhuowen to enter the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground himself. It was better for him to use a wisp of his mental strength to control the puppet.

"Yes, you can use the puppet to enter the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground. You can predict in advance what is inside.

It would be best if you can find Fuxi, but if you can't, then there's nothing you can do. "Cheng Huang and Xiao Hei said in unison.

"Then it's decided!"

After making up his mind, Zhuowen suddenly sped up. After an hour, he arrived at the end of the cave.

However, to Zhuowen's surprise, the end of the cave was not a black rock wall, but a huge bronze door.

The bronze door was dozens of feet high. On both sides of the door were carvings of the two Death Gods, Ox-Head and Horse-Face. Both of them were staring at each other with their huge eyes. They looked extremely terrifying.

However, the bronze door was not complete. There was a crack in the middle of the door. The crack was inconspicuous, but wisps of black mist seeped out from the crack, which made Zhuowen extremely wary.

"It's the Death Qi. On the other side of the bronze door is the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground. Some powerful dead people can shrink themselves and leave the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground through the crack," Xiao Hei said cautiously.

"However, it seems that the crack has not been discovered by the dead people in the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground. We can go in and explore before sealing the crack," Cheng Huang said.

"Then I'll send out a puppet to try!"

Zhuowen nodded. Immediately, he took out a puppet that was as tall as Zhuowen from the Azure Dragon Hall. He then extracted a wisp of his Mental Energy and sent it into the puppet's forehead. The puppet's eyes immediately lit up, as if it had come to life.

Zhuowen shrunk the puppet to the size of a strand of hair. He then placed it in the crack and sent it to the other side of the bronze door.

"Xiao Hei, I'm going to use my Mental Energy to control the puppet. Protect me," Zhuowen said to Xiao Hei as he sat cross-legged on the ground.

"Don't worry, no one will disturb you."

Xiao Hei landed on Zhuowen's shoulder. With a wave of her little paw, a thick black mist enveloped Zhuowen, forming a thick protective shield.

When Zhuowen's Mental Energy landed on the puppet, which was also when the puppet opened its eyes, Zhuowen was stunned.

The Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, as the name suggested, should be filled with white bones, barren land, and ghostly aura lingering in the air.

In Zhuowen's heart, he also thought that the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground should be like this.

However, the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground that appeared in front of him now shocked him. Or rather, it was beyond his expectations.

The scene in front of Zhuowen's eyes was completely different from what he had imagined. In the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, there were green mountains and clear waters. The mountains were like coiling dragons, and the mountain ranges were like serpents. Immortal mist filled the air, waterfalls flowed, and old trees towered into the sky, their branches like mist.

How was this the ghostly Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground? It was simply a paradise on earth!

Zhuowen rubbed his eyes, thinking that he was seeing things. However, no matter how many times he rubbed his eyes, the scene in front of him was still the same.

"Are those … coffins?"

After recovering from his shock, Zhuowen quickly calmed down. His eyes fell on the surrounding environment, and he soon noticed that the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, which was like a paradise on earth, was very different from the usual scenery.

Because in this beautiful scenery, one could see all kinds of coffins everywhere. There were inconspicuous wooden coffins, bronze coffins that were covered in patterns, and golden coffins that shone with a golden light …

Moreover, the places where these coffins were placed were also very particular, or rather, unique.

For example, on the steep cliff in front of Zhuowen, there were many ancient coffins hanging.

Some coffins were directly embedded in the rock walls, some were placed on towering trees like a bird's nest, and some were floating in the stream.

"This Nether Corpse Forbidden Grounds is truly inconceivable. Even though its name is so creepy, the scenery inside is so magnificent. It's truly baffling."

Zhuowen shook his head, not daring to move carelessly. Although the scenery inside was beautiful, he could feel that the auras on the countless coffins scattered in this area were not simple.

Zhuowen could even feel a strong sense of danger from many of the coffins. There was no doubt that the coffins contained extremely terrifying corpses. Even if they had been dead for thousands of years, they were still extremely powerful and were not something that Zhuowen could profane.

"Senior Cheng Huang, can you sense Fuxi's aura in here?"

Zhuowen suddenly asked. Before entering the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, Cheng Huang had also attached a strand of his consciousness to the puppet.

After all, Cheng Huang was the weapon spirit of the Fuxi Cauldron, so it should be the most familiar with the aura of its master, Fuxi. Only Cheng Huang could find Fuxi among the countless coffins.

"The deathly aura in the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground is too dense, almost cutting off my senses. If I wasn't very close, I wouldn't have been able to distinguish my master's aura," Cheng Huang said helplessly.

"Is that so?

Then let's go inside and take a look. "

Zhuowen did not waste any more time. Stepping on the soft ground, he slowly walked into the depths of the Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground.

The puppet that Zhuowen had chosen had the strength of a Profound Saint. In this Serene Corpse Forbidden Ground, it would not be killed so easily.

Zhuowen walked to a basin and saw that there was an iron coffin in the center of the basin. The iron coffin was bound by numerous chains, and its surface was covered with blood-red patterns that looked like blood veins.

"Get lost!"

The moment Zhuowen stepped into the basin, a thunderous voice came from the iron coffin. Then, the surrounding chains moved violently and rushed toward Zhuowen.

Zhuowen's expression changed slightly. He suddenly struck out with his right hand and smashed it against the iron chains. Immediately after, he was sent flying and smashed outside the basin.

Clang!
