Chapter 334 Golden Page

That piece of paper was only size of a palm . Lines covered the entire page, and as soon as it appeared, an incredibly ancient air radiated off of it, filling the entire room . At the same time, a powerful spiritual pressure shot out as well .

This sudden change stunned everyone . After pausing for just an instant, everyone crazily charged towards the page .

“Fuck off, it’s mine!”

Although the tomb was already beginning to collapse, everyone, whether they were from the Righteous or Corrupt path, was now charging at the golden page . Blood splattered everywhere .

All of their eyes had reddened . Anyone who was in front of them, whether it was someone from the same path or opposing path, would be attacked by them .

The three Chosen were the furthest from the coffin . As for Long Chen, because he had taken the forging table, he had then retreated further away to avoid being attacked . So it was the regular disciples who were the closest to the coffin .

“Haha-!”

One person was the first to reach the golden page . He had just laughed and been about to say something to an expert from the monastery when his hand was directly cut off by someone’s saber .

This first person was actually from the same monastery as Zhao Mingshan . His plan had been to announce that this treasure now belonged to Zhao Mingshan, and so no one could fight over it .

However, he had underestimated people’s greed . After his hand was cut off, he only managed to get out half a wail before he went silent .

A sword had already cut off his head . Someone behind him had been irritated that he had been blocking the way, and they had directly killed him in one attack . Surprisingly, the one to kill him was also a monastery disciple .

But that disciple was smart, and had long since torn off the marking on his robes . He had also applied something to his face so no one could recognize him, leaving no evidence .

The entire room was a complete mess now . The tomb was constantly quivering, and it was pouring dirt from the ceiling .

That dirt was not ordinary dirt . It was as hard as steel, and sometimes huge portions of it would collapse at once, instantly killing any core disciple it landed on .

But all that was not able to stop the fervor . This inner coffin was a normal size; in other words, this coffin was the one that really contained the tomb owner’s corpse .

And this golden page that had been laying on top of this coffin was definitely a treasure amongst treasures . Even the Corrupt disciples became greedy, and they also joined the struggle .

In just a couple breaths, this golden page passed through several hands, and over ten disciples had already died .

The three Chosen wanted to join the fight over it, as that golden page was definitely invaluable .

But they were also unwilling to give up on killing Long Chen . If they allowed Long Chen to escape while fighting for the treasure, that would definitely fill them with regret .

But if they lost the treasure in order to kill Long Chen, that would also be regretful . For a moment, they didn’t know what to do .

They only watched as those disciples struggled, while also dodging the large slabs of earth falling from the ceiling .

The tomb was shaking with more intensity as time passed . Just standing was getting difficult .

Another stone pillar collapsed, smashing into the crowd . Tens of people were instantly turned to pulp .

Suddenly, a figure charged into the crowd, and a terrifying Sword Qi swept through the remnants .

Several people were instantly killed by that Sword Qi, one of them being a powerful Favored .

“It’s the Corrupt Chosen!”

Someone let out a startled cry . They all realized now that the Corrupt Chosen had charged into their midst, going straight for the Favored who was now holding the golden page .

That page was extremely odd, and it could not be absorbed into a spatial ring . They could only hold it .

“Save me senior apprentice-brother Zhao!”

That Favored with the golden page immediately turned pale when he saw the Corrupt Chosen come to kill him .

Right now, he was completely focused on blocking the attacks from several other Favored . At the same time, he also had to pay attention to sneak attacks from others . That was already extremely taxing for him . If a Chosen was added into the mix, he would definitely die .

“Bastard, how dare you go back on your word?!” raged Zhao Mingshan, charging at the Corrupt Chosen .

The Corrupt Chosen was just about to reach the Favored and kill him, when a terrifying aura locked down on him . If he wanted to kill the Favored, he would need to receive a full strength attack from Zhao Mingshan, which would at least heavily injure him, if not kill him .

Naturally he chose to block Zhao Mingshan’s saber . He sneered, “I only agreed not to interfere with what was inside the outer coffin . I didn’t say anything about the treasures of the inner coffin . ”

“Blood Figure Devours Souls!” He suddenly spat a mouthful of blood onto his sword, and a terrifying aura shot out .

“AHHH!”

All the Righteous disciples suddenly began to scream, feeling as if their heads were being stabbed with needles . Even Favored were not able to bear it .

Favored were clenching their heads tightly . As for core disciples, they were bleeding from their seven apertures[1], their souls filled with immense pain, as if countless ghouls were devouring their souls . Their bodies were trembling intensely, and they lost any ability to fight .

The Corrupt disciples weren’t affected in the same manner . Instead, under the influence of that Spiritual Strength, they became even more savage, crazily assaulting the Righteous disciples .

The two Righteous Chosen were startled . They hadn’t expected the Corrupt Chosen to possess such a bizarre technique . They were able to just barely block that energy, but they still felt some pain in their souls .

They finally realized the Corrupt Chosen had been holding back this whole time and had just been using them . From the start, he had been planning on devouring the two of them when the time came .

The Favored holding the golden page finally wasn’t able to endure it, and his arm was cut off by a Corrupt disciple .

The hand with the golden page flew into the air . The three Chosen all reacted by directly jumping up to grab it .

But the instant their hands were about to touch that page, it suddenly escaped and flew in a certain direction .

“What?!”

The three of them were all shocked . They saw the page was flying towards Long Chen’s hand .

“Courting death!” The Corrupt Chosen roared and his body suddenly twisted . He somehow took a step in midair, springing forward and grabbing the golden page .

“Hehe, the treasure is mine-!”

The Corrupt Chosen’s smile had only just appeared when blood suddenly splashed .

The golden page had cleanly cut his hand in half as it continued flying towards Long Chen .

All of them were shocked, even Long Chen . How could this small page so easily pierce through a Chosen’s hand?

The reason everyone had been fighting for it wasn’t because they had realized the material of the page was special . They had just assumed it was made of normal gold .

The real treasure had to be lines that were written on it . Those were very likely immortal characters that recorded an unrivaled cultivation technique or a heaven-startling Battle Skill .

Even in all that fighting, none of them had realized that the paper was special . Only Long Chen had felt a faint spiritual calling to that page .

Long Chen had been constantly waiting for an opportunity . And just now, that opportunity had come, and he had used his Spiritual Strength to draw the page towards him .

But when his Spiritual Strength touched the page, he realized the page seemed to possess an extremely great thirst for Spiritual Strength .

Under the urging of his Spiritual Strength, that page was like an obedient puppy . A faint light had shone from it and it had directly flown over to him .

When that Corrupt Chosen had first managed to grab it, Long Chen had thought his plan had failed . He had just been about to start fighting when that page directly cut apart the Chosen’s hand and continued flying towards him .

Long Chen was delighted and surprised . This golden page was definitely a true treasure .

“It’s a soul item?!” The Corrupt Chosen was filled with disbelief . “Get back here!”

His Spiritual Strength immediately surged out to grab the golden page .

The golden page suddenly paused in midair before reaching Long Chen . Sometimes it would pull a bit towards Long Chen, sometimes it would pull a bit towards the Corrupt Chosen, seeming like a tug-of-war .

“You want to compete with me in terms of Spiritual Strength?”

Although he didn’t know what secrets were contained within this golden page, Long Chen knew that it had a certain affinity with Spiritual Strength .

His mind-sea shook, an an enormous Spiritual Strength surged out . That hesitating page instantly shot in Long Chen’s direction .

Long Chen easily received it . It felt as if it was an extremely delicate, thin layer of gold . It was only the size of a palm, but there were countless lines on top of it . They didn’t look exactly like words, but they didn’t look like drawings either . Instead, they seemed extremely similar to runes .

It was very light in his hand . In fact, it was so light, he almost didn’t even feel it . It was like gold but not gold, like paper but not paper . It was extremely bizarre .

“Hand it over!”

Three figures charged over at Long Chen . The three Chosen were no longer holding anything back at this time, and their auras completely exploded out, marks appearing on their foreheads .

Three weapons attacked Long Chen at the same time . These were full strength attacks now . They wanted to kill Long Chen before the tomb collapsed .

Long Chen swung out Devil Decapitator with his full might, clashing with their three weapons .

With an explosive sound, a terrifying energy directly broke apart the tomb . Previously, it had just been dirt falling . Now, the real ceiling was collapsing .

Due to the various pillars supporting it, there were some portions that didn’t collapse immediately . But the pillars were already starting to fall one by one . Those broken pieces were terrifying as they smashed down .

At this time, the other disciples no longer had any more wishful thinking and all fled for their lives .

As for Long Chen, under their three combined blows, he was sent flying back . His expression greatly changed, as he was flying in the opposite direction of the exit .

His foot had just touched the ground when a huge pillar collapsed, falling down on him . It was too late to dodge .

“FengFu Battle Armor!”

A star suddenly appeared in Long Chen’s eyes, and a terrifying aura surged out . His saber slashed out at the stone pillar .

[1] The seven apertures here refers to the two eyes, two ears, two nostrils, and mouth .
