Celestial Peak

Chapter 320: Troubling Idols

Entering the tomb it was practically free for all. Groups were formed amongst companions and there were those who were a loner, traversing the tomb on their own.

Wang Ling called it a tomb, and its name is the Tomb of the Golden Fist Mesas but it was more a fortress as its size was so big that it can be compared to a mountain. He had not seen a God before but according to the Gray Figure this place was owned by a Middle-God.

And before entering this place, the Gray Figure had assured something to Wang Ling. It said that its presence is going to be indispensable when it enters rooms such as this one.

From within Wang Ling's body, the Gray Figure sat atop his Chaotic Origin Foundation and as he sat there cross-legged he sensed the flow of the Qi around him, "Turn right to the next corridor."

Wang Ling did what he was told and right in front of him were a number of people turning their backs as the stretch of three hundred meter path was nothing but a dead-end, "It's a dead-end, three hundred meters in front there's a wall, are you sure about this?"

The Gray Figure waved its hands in indignation and scoffed, "If your Piercing Vision had reached at least the fourth level you may catch the glimpse of the God Might Flow, but you are lacking so just do what I say for now. Stop before the wall before you, and press the third brick above the lower right corner. Make sure to have your Chaos Qi circulate on your fingertips as you do it."

Wang Ling did what he was told like before but he didn't have much hope of what may happen. But to his surprised, the brick was easily pushed. From then on, the mechanism, rather the formation of the wall was broken and what seemed to be a dead-end opened a path for Wang Ling.

"Don't look so surprise, it is normally inaccessible by you or anyone who does not have God Qi, but with Chaos Qi the formation can easily be fooled. But even without your Chaos Qi, you can draw out the God Might from your sword and you will be able to open these kinds of formations."

What accompanied the condescending lecture of the Gray Figure was the opening of the brick wall. Behind the brick wall, there was a pile of white pills about an inch in diameter each.

From Wang Ling's perspective, they were nothing but marbles, but when the Gray Figure saw these marbles it lost its mind as it celebrated, "Hell yeah, what luck, it's [Nebular Pills] what lack we have. Collect them all, but you don't have a God's Pocket so it is impossible to take them all. Take out as much empty storage ring you have, place three pills in each storage ring no matter the size it has."

"What is it for?"

"This is a Nebular Pill, it is the primary resource of God Realm cultivators. Take it, quickly. It will help you cultivate faster. We can't use your Sword Qi to supplement your cultivation any longer!"

The resources of gods, it was the first time Wang Ling had seen such a thing. And because he had experienced what God Might is when he extracted it from the swords, Wang Ling was ecstatic.

Using his Immortal Qi, he separated the hundreds of Nebular Pill to his storage rings. Wang Ling will never run out of storage ring unless the number of pills is at hundreds of thousands, Wang Ling will never run out.

The number of people he had killed in the Celestial Spirit Realm is already at the six-digit number. With his personality, he made sure to collect every single storage ring they have with them so Wang Ling has thousands of storage rings in his possession.

The 402 Nebular Pills was split into 134 storage rings and Wang Ling was prepared to leave. But life is not so simple that it will let Wang Ling go after successful looting.

Slash! Wang Ling felt an intent coming from behind and he nimbly jumped backward in order to avoid the saber that was brandished against him. Standing by the entrance of the secret room, there were three people at the fifth meridian, all of which were eyeing the storage ring he had with him.

"Hoo, you actually managed to dodge? Well no matter, your injuries must be hell, right? You, the idiot who wanted to make an enemy out of Pesa, give me what you got here or else I'll make you feel the pain that will make you wish for death!"

The one in front was confident and was laughing at his current state. The 'still' fresh wound he received from Lyka 'remained' on his now destroyed robe. These people stared at his injury and reckoned he was already weakened.

He may have the power to contest against Lyka, but when he is weakened like this he is not worth shit, or so they thought. Wang Ling did not say anything to counter their knowledge and just brought out Heaven's Will and Reaper and with a single kick on the ground, Wang Ling sped past the three stupid opportunists and each gave them everlasting mark they will never be able to forget.

An arm or a leg, Wang Ling took one from them as he severed a limb from their body.

They howled like dying animals and as they stared at Wang Ling questions appeared on their eyes, "Wwhat is happening? Weren't you injured?"

When their screams reached the ears of Wang Ling, he merely looked down upon them saying, "Be thankful I didn't take your lives. Also, stop bitching, you guys are Immortals, jus reattaches them back."

Wang Ling then left with a satisfied smile on his face. Immortals may not be able to grow back an arm or a leg, but it was possible for them to reattach a severed arm or leg. It may seem grotesque and quite frankly simple, but it was taxing and problematic especially in the part of reattaching the meridians and veins so no one likes doing it.

But Wang Ling did not care about these things and just hurried along inside the Tomb. He followed the instructions of the Gray Figure and they were able to uncover two more hidden rooms that contain Spirit Plants and Beast Cores.

They were quite plenty but none managed to match the value of the Nebular Pills. The Gray Figure was about to give up on trying to find something good in this tomb when its senses suddenly snuffed out something truly interesting.

"My successor, head north! There is something interesting over there."

Wang Ling followed the directions of the Gray Figure and soon enough, they reached a spacious room. That room had multiple columns and statues of giant proportions that is positioned in a circular fashion on the edges of the room.

Seven passageways led to that one particular room from any direction of the Tomb. And in the middle of that room, there were seven treasures suspended in the air. These treasures ranged from weapons to spirit plants to weird and mysterious miniature treasure box.

The seven treasures were inside barriers that is just like the barrier that surrounded the tomb previously. In that spacious room, he was not alone and there were numerous people present waiting for the barrier to dissipate.

Wang Ling turned to these treasures and was trying to pick what he should get when he heard the Gray Figure speak, "Take the Black Box, that thing contains something good."

Wang Ling was in doubt but what counts good in the eyes of the Gray Figure is something that should be above Immortality. And so, he aimed for that box like the Gray Figure wanted.

Seconds then minutes passed and fifteen minutes after Wang Ling entered that room, the barriers exploded into brilliant golden lights before disappearing. Wang Ling waited for an opportunity and then jumped for the Black Box.

But as he was about to take the Black Box, a hand grabbed it before him. Wang Ling turned to the person who managed to get the Black Box before him and then frowned.

Standing near one of the statues, the one who got the Black Box laughed as he ridiculed Wang Ling, "Hahaha, you too slow, this treasure is mine for I am, bwa!"

Boom!

But the next scene made Wang Ling both worry and smile for the annoying thief had been punched by the statue that had come to life and was sent spiraling towards the columns nearby dropping the box in the process.
