Chapter 221 Awakening
Chapter 221 Awakening
The human skin restrained all its power and quickly came to the bronze chain.
Gently stroking the inside of the coffin, there seemed to be an expression on the human skin's face, and the vibration of the coffin subsided at this moment, as if communication had been achieved. Unexplained runes appeared in the human skin's hand, and he began to crack the runes on the bronze chain.
"Oh no, he's going to destroy the restriction!"
The humanoid puppet at the bottom of the stairs changed color, and without caring about chasing Chang Qing and the woman in purple, it quickly flew upwards to stop the human skin.
At this moment, these puppets gave Changqing the feeling that they were not machines, but living people!
The puppet dropped the weapon in his hand and used the magic in his hand to attack the human skin.
The human skin seemed not to see it, and the runes in his hand kept on striking out, destroying the runes on the chain with an inexplicable aura.
The magic power was tremendous, with a violent explosion that echoed in the space, deafening.
The dust dissipated, and a light blue barrier appeared in front of the human skin, blocking all attacks.
Changqing below felt that the timing was perfect. He could take advantage of the chaos of the fight between the two parties while the pressure disappeared to reap the benefits.
Looking up, Changqing was not the only one who had this idea.
The woman wrapped it in a long purple silk and arrived at the altar in a few flashes.
Changqing followed closely behind and came up quickly.
The altar is larger than it appears.
Apart from the huge stone altar, there was nothing else.
The puppets also came back to their senses from the attack at this moment. They knew that their strength was not enough to break the barrier. Several puppets looked at each other and nodded. Thin lines kept lighting up on their chests and bodies, quickly spreading throughout their bodies, becoming more and more dazzling, and even the puppet cores inside could be seen clearly.
"Self-destruct!" Chang Qing's face changed, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart: "People can't defeat themselves, so this puppet can't defeat itself, so it also destructs itself?"
However, Changqing did not hesitate. He quickly retreated to the steps, bent down and raised the barrier for defense.
The purple-clothed woman was very skilled and courageous, so she did not even try to hide. Instead, she wanted to take advantage of the chaos to grab the treasure from the ebony coffin.
The scene was quite chaotic. The human skin seemed to notice the danger and came back to its senses to look at the puppet that was about to self-destruct.
A giant blood-red hand solidified in the air and grabbed several puppets. The puppets' bodies twisted and hid in the void.
The big hand disappeared without stopping, and when it reappeared, it was holding the puppets that were about to self-destruct.
The red giant hand squeezed lightly and the puppet exploded, but the explosion was contained in the giant hand, and only a few ripples in the space were twisted and transmitted out.
Chang Qing thought to himself: "What a jerk!"
On the other hand, the woman in purple took advantage of this gap and quickly came to the coffin. She slapped the purple talisman on the coffin and wanted to reach in to look for treasure.
But as soon as the talisman touched the coffin, blood-colored mist overflowed from the coffin and corroded the talisman.
The talisman actually started to burn, and at the same time the human skin controlled the big hand to slap the woman.
Everything happened in an instant, catching people off guard.
The purple-clothed woman was very decisive. She raised her hand to peel off the purple talisman. The long purple silk instantly turned into a khaki shield and collided with the big hand. The giant hand was very powerful, and the moment it made contact, the woman and the shield were knocked off the stage.
The woman in purple was motionless and it was unknown whether she was dead or alive.
The human skin no longer paid attention to the woman. He glanced at Chang Qing, and after seeing that he did not make any other moves, he continued to destroy the bronze chain.
After a few breaths, the runes on the bronze chain were completely worn away, and the bronze chain whimpered and broke with a snap.
The ebony coffin lost its balance and suddenly fell to one side. Then there was a loud bang as the bronze chain, which was more than a person's thickness, hit the ground, and smoke and dust rose up.
The coffin began to shake again.
After the loud noise, the entire cave became extremely quiet, and Changqing felt that he could even hear his own heartbeat.
"Ding-ling-ling~" a crisp collision sound was heard.
Chang Qing looked up and saw that the seven coffin nails on the coffin lid began to fall off one by one and fell onto the altar.
The eerie feeling in this extreme silence made Changqing's adrenaline surge.
"Creaky~" The lid of the ebony coffin made a teeth-grinding sound, and it was obvious that the person inside wanted to open the lid to get out.
However, the bronze chain wrapped around the coffin emitted green runes that prevented the coffin lid from opening.
The coffin was opened a small gap.
Just when Chang Qing thought that the human skin would move again, the human skin stopped moving and looked around vigilantly to be on guard for him.
Just as Chang Qing was wondering, drops of blood began to flow out from the small gap in the coffin lid.
The blood drops did not fall to the ground, but instead flowed along the coffin to the chains that sealed the coffin. More and more blood drops appeared, not only on the chains wrapped around the coffin, but also along the coffin body to the other three bronze chains that tied the coffin.
The moment the blood drop touched the bronze chain, a violent "hissing" sound was heard, just like a red-hot iron being dropped into water.
The green runes on the bronze chain flickered wildly, flickering on and off, as if they were struggling, but eventually they dissipated like a moth to a flame.
Chang Qing nodded. The blood bead contained too much foul energy, which directly corroded the origin of the runes and made them ineffective. He did not expect that it was quite similar to the method he used to break the formation.
The runes on the bronze chain seemed to sense the danger, emitting inexplicable fluctuations, as if giving a warning.
The space twisted and distorted again, and countless puppets fell from the dome, staring at the huge coffin above, and shouted in unison:
"You are a scourge to the universe, a criminal of the heavens. Suppressing you is already a pardon, but you have yet to reflect on yourself. Now, you deserve to be punished for your actions!"
There was a huge crowd of puppets below, several of which had apparently reached the Kaihua realm. With powerful aura fluctuations, they seemed to be the leaders of these puppets. Changqing was even more certain that these people were not puppets, but real people.
Without waiting for any answer, a loud roar came as a response.
When everyone looked, they saw that the three chains broke at the same time, and the coffin fell heavily on the altar.
Then there was silence, deathly silence.
The silence was broken by the sound of the bronze chains wrapped around the coffin, which flew in all directions, followed by a very long gasp.
"Uh~" a low groan was heard, as if the person in the coffin stretched. The sound kept echoing in the cave, reverberating in everyone's heart, deep and hoarse, accompanied by a rumbling bass frequency, making people feel oppressive and uneasy.
"Oh no, he's about to break the seal! Quickly restart the formation, it can communicate with the coffin and put it into a deep sleep!"
The Kaihua Realm puppet's expression changed and he spoke hurriedly.
Many puppets made hand gestures and hit the formation patterns, trying to reactivate the formation.
Hundreds of puppets attacked at the same time, with significant results, and quickly dispersed the foul spiritual energy at the center of the formation.
The formation was restored and the puppets breathed a sigh of relief, but the human skin collapsed to the ground again the moment the formation lit up.
Chang Qing looked a little solemn. Seeing that the coffin was motionless, he thought about getting some thousand-year-old ebony now. But his face was bitter. Even if he had the thousand-year-old ebony, he couldn't get out. He was trapped in the formation.
