Volume 2 Experiencing Growth Chapter 85 Blowing Up the Coffin
A group of young people from the Qi Refining Realm wanted to steal the coffin of the Holy Realm, which was almost unbelievable.
However, at this moment, the children of the Central Plains and Dongyi are trying to accomplish this feat.
First of all, as Qi Refining Realm martial artists, they are not ordinary martial artists, they are Tianjiao, their backgrounds are huge, and the means they possess are definitely not comparable to ordinary Qi Refining Realm martial artists.
Secondly, the owner of the coffin was not completely successful in breaking through to the Holy Realm back then, and there was a huge amount of energy but it was not stable. Now that this coffin has been buried deep in the ground for more than 600 years, those energies have passed too much and are no longer inaccessible.
The plan for stealing the coffin discussed by the previous seventeen captains was very simple and crude: blow it up.
However, this plan is still a bit laborious to implement. First, they had to dig four tunnels from four directions, diagonally leading to the coffin. Then Dongfang Ziyang and Yu Tu provided three high-explosive copper pots, and Xu Cheng provided an explosive iron ball, which were placed by Dongyi Xu Cheng, Xu Bozhou, Li Fangniu and Dongfang Ziyang respectively.
Digging tunnels and planting bombs is a necessary step, and the reason why it is so cumbersome is because of checks and balances.
In terms of power, the three high-explosive copper kettles provided by Dongfang Ziyang and Yu Tu were basically enough to blow up the holy coffin, but they demanded that the three of them must be placed in Dongyi. The reason is that Dongyi's people are strong and their physical fitness is much higher than that of the Central Plains, and the high-explosive copper kettle is produced by the Central Plains.
Xu Cheng and the others were definitely not happy to make such an arrangement, not to mention the difficulty of planting bombs, which required the use of some special items to resist the cold and cold atmosphere, and whether they could avoid the shock wave in time after being installed was also a little uncertain.
If Zhongyuan and the others didn't have a good heart, they made a move on the high-explosive copper kettle and let him explode in advance, then the three masters of Dongyi would have to be abolished if they didn't die.
This possibility is there, although the people in the Central Plains patted their chests and promised that they would never do anything, but the people in Dongyi still didn't trust it.
So they simply provided an explosive iron ball and asked Dongfang Ziyang to place it with them. Dongyi's explosive iron ball was weaker than the high-explosive copper kettle, but it was enough to blow up a sixfold realm martial artist. If the people of the Central Plains have bad intentions, they will all die.
In order to prove that the high-explosive copper kettle they provided was fine, Dongfang Ziyang and the others could only accept this condition.
But when it was time to act, Dongfang Ziyang "changed the hexagram" again.
He remembered that when the chasm first appeared, it was Zishang who first saw the situation at the edge of the ravine, and his condition was obviously much better than when Dongfang Ziyang explored it later.
Dongfang Ziyang didn't know that Zishang's physical fitness was close to the level of the Eightfold Realm of Qi Refining, and he only guessed that Zishang had any magic weapons to keep out the cold or some other special reasons.
So he secretly consulted with the merchant and asked him if he could plant a bomb near the coffin.
Through the previous observation of everyone, Zishang found that whether it was Dongfang Ziyang or Dongyi Xu Bozhou, Li Fangniu and others, after getting close to the ravine, the state was far inferior to Zishang.
In addition to Zishang, the strongest resistance should be Xu Cheng after the breakthrough. Before, he seemed to have gotten some kind of opportunity in the secret realm, and the body refining method had improved a lot.
So after Zishang made some more reasonable requests, he agreed to go down the tunnel and plant a bomb for Dongfang Ziyang.
Whether it is Zishang or Dongfang Ziyang, they all know that the pain to be borne by planting the bomb is very great.
Due to the influence of the illusion at the beginning, Dongfang Ziyang's state was very poor, and he has not been able to recover until now, Zishang is indeed more suitable for him to go down, and on the other hand, he can also ensure that Dongfang Ziyang's state will not deteriorate.
The Void Teleportation Tunnel has a realm limit, and the grandson of the Central Plains family, Yueyi, has not been able to enter the secret realm, so the high-end combat power of the middle atomic brother cannot be compared with Dongyi at all.
In fact, this plan also has the purpose of weakening Dongyi's top combat power, close to the coffin of the Holy Realm, either consume some good hole cards, or bear the damage of that cold and cold aura, no matter what, don't want to complete the task easily.
Zishang's physical fitness is extremely high, not inferior to Xu Cheng's body refining method, plus some foreign object protection, as long as there is no accident, he should be able to complete the task safely, if he encounters accidents, then no one on the Central Plains side can do better than him.
To put it mildly, even if Zishang was seriously injured by the cold qi or affected by the explosion, the most he would lose would be a martial artist comparable to the fourfold realm of qi refining, which was better than losing the high-end combat power of the sixfold realm.
Just planting the bomb, Zishang was still relatively confident, so he couldn't help but think of something else......
While the others were busy digging tunnels, Zishang put on the silver inscription inner armor and gray and white combat boots to step on the cloud shoes, both of which were the best of the cloud mystical weapons, which could provide good physical protection.
Dongfang Ziyang lent his wrist pads, knee pads and other items to Zishang to protect him to the greatest extent. Yu Tu lent the dragon silkworm gloves provided to him by the family elders to Zishang.
The dragon silkworm glove is a very precious earthly weapon, but it has no attack power, it has extremely high corrosion resistance and cold and heat insulation, and is mainly used to pick some special medicinal materials and ores.
Dongfang Ziyang armed Zishang and explained to him the precautions for planting bombs. After that, it's just to sit and wait for the tunnel to be dug up.
In order to ensure that the four people who planted the bomb were as protected from the impact of the explosion as possible, they needed to dig a tunnel that was more than 30 zhang long.
More than 100 young talents not only have extraordinary cultivation talents, but also are very proficient in digging tunnels, and they are also serious and not lazy when they are busy, only paying attention to the progress of the project, and not caring about the image of Tianjiao.
It is still very time-consuming and manpower to dig more than 30 zhang long tunnels, and at the same time, this tunnel also needs to be dug relatively spacious to ensure that people can run out quickly.
The more spacious the tunnel, the more it needed to be reinforced, and a lot of work was added, and it was busy until the morning of the ninth day when I entered the secret realm, and it was basically completed.
After digging the tunnel, they didn't immediately go down to plant the bomb, and the cold air around the coffin was too heavy, and they had to wait until almost noon before they could act.
There is no sun in the secret realm, but there are days and nights, and the cycle is fourteen hours. Although there is no dazzling sun at noon, it is also the brightest in the secret realm, not much different from the noon sun outside.
The light of noon can slightly weaken some of the cold and cold atmosphere, and while waiting for noon, everyone has started to tear down the main hall of the Taishou Mansion again, so that there is no blocking of the light.
The most unexpected thing is that there are still many things hidden between the roof beams of the hall, such as "several account books", which record the amount of corruption and bribery of a certain official, and some "land deeds" and so on.
But these sub-merchants can't see it, and the only real items he can see are three powerful cheats!
Of course, other people are also most concerned about these three martial arts cheats, after all, the other "title deeds" and "corruption books" are useless to them.
The three cheats are placed separately, and Sun Chunzhou, a talented man in the Central Plains, discovered the first cheats "Dark Clouds Crush the City Palm".
Dongyi Xu Cheng found the other two, but unfortunately the two cheats were on either side of his body, one in front of the other and one behind him.
At first, he only saw the one in front of him, and when he moved his body, he accidentally squeezed the one behind him.
And the book stumbled to the edge of the chasm, and then flipped and fell into the bottom of the ravine, shrouded in the black mist around the holy coffin.
Although this was Xu Cheng's negligence, no one dared to complain, and everyone in Dongyi didn't see it.
The young people in the Central Plains were quite sarcastic, and the corners of their mouths were slightly upturned, and they didn't say it explicitly.
The book Xu Cheng got was a light skill cheat book "Cold Wind Step", which was very different from Xu Cheng's style, so he was not interested.
After demolishing the roof, Dongfang Ziyang mentioned the replacement to Xu Cheng "lightly".
Xu Cheng was stunned, looked at Zishang for the first time, and said to Dongfang Ziyang suspiciously: "He, you're not mistaken, right? You don't plan to make him a dead soldier, do you?"
Dongfang Ziyang snorted: "You don't care about this, at least we guarantee that he will not affect the overall plan." ”
"Oh?"
Seeing Dongfang Ziyang's confident face, Xu Cheng once again looked at the "young man" Zishang, wondering what confidence he had to accomplish the same task as these top bosses.
"As long as it doesn't affect the plan, but I'll also say the ugly thing ahead, if you kid let the plan go wrong, I promise no one will be able to save you!"
Xu Cheng threatened strongly, not taking Dongfang Ziyang on the side in his eyes at all.
Noon soon arrived.
The four men who were about to plant the bomb stood at the entrance of the tunnel, holding iron balls, copper kettles, and a pack of lit fire folds, ready to act at the same time.
At this time, it suddenly occurred to Zishang that the strange helmet found in the ruins of the ancient mechanism a few months ago seemed to be some kind of superb treasure. So after burrowing into the tunnel, he immediately took the helmet from the storage ring and put it on his head.
The front of the helmet was a large round transparent glass, and at this time in the tunnel, after he put on the helmet, he could see it more clearly. Before he had time to pause, he continued to drill deeper into the tunnel.
The closer you get to the coffin, the heavier the cold and cold atmosphere becomes, so when I was digging the tunnel before, it was not completely dug through, and there was still about five to seven feet of dirt left.
The tunnel was dug up to the height of one person, so the four of them gradually accelerated, not too fast, to ensure that they reached the bottom of the tunnel at the same time at the time of five breaths, and ignited the lead at the same time in two breaths.
Only by moving in unison will they be able to evacuate at the same time, escape from the explosion to the greatest extent possible, and ensure that everyone is not injured.
The chasm is only one zhang wide, and the bottom of the tunnel is actually more than a zhang away from the coffin. The cold and cold aura that was dense into a state of black mist penetrated the soil layer of less than seven feet, eroding Zishang and the others.
When they really rushed to this place, they found that they all underestimated the coercion underneath.
The invisible pressure released by the bones of the Holy Realm was extremely large within a distance of three zhang around the coffin.
Zishang only felt that his body sank three times suddenly, and at the same time, symptoms such as tinnitus and dizziness appeared at the same time, and his consciousness was disturbed.
And the thick cold aura greatly restricted their movements. At the last three or four zhang distance from the bottom of the tunnel, the temperature dropped sharply to minus 30 degrees.
The Yin and Cold Qi of the energy state has a strong penetration of armor such as inner armor, and even if it is at the level of the best cloud mystic weapon, it can only weaken about thirty percent.
Yin and cold qi penetrate from the skin into the muscles and meridians, greatly affecting the operation of the true qi, and what is more dangerous is that after the yin and cold qi enters the head, it will arouse all kinds of negative emotions, and if the will is not firm, it may lose your mind.
In this regard, Xu Cheng and the others could only grit their teeth and resist, keep the Lingtai clear as much as possible, and at the same time squander the true qi without money, keep the meridians from being filled with true qi at any time, and prevent the yin and cold qi from blocking the meridians.
They did rush to the bottom of the tunnel in five breaths, but in this harsh environment, it was much more troublesome to light the fuse.
And the solution is still simple and crude, six large bottles of high-spirited pure liquor and a pack of fire folds that have already been lit.
In this special environment at the bottom of the tunnel, the flame of the fire fold decreases rapidly, but it can't stand the large number, a pack of fire folds, although it is extinguished ninety, but it is still some tenaciously burning, and when it touches the high-concentration spirits "Peng", it explodes a half-human-high mushroom cloud. Throw the explosive iron ball into the fire, and it's over.
The moment the iron ball was out of his hand, Zishang had already turned around and started running.
He turned out to be the first of the four to run, and the original plan was that the four of them should stay for two breaths, light the fuse during the two breaths, and then escape together.
The helmet that Zishang brought was a little special, and it actually weakened the influence of Jiucheng's cold and cold qi, and as for the faint negative emotion, it was not worth mentioning in front of the soul realm at the peak of his consciousness realm, and it did not interfere with him in the slightest.
On the contrary, it was the freezing effect of the cold air, which made Zishang feel stiff and a little uncomfortable.
When he broke into the bottom forbidden area, the pressure brought by the cold aura and the bones of the Holy Realm did not affect Zishang too much, but made him more sober.
Stay in the restricted area for two breaths, light the fuse and evacuate together?
This is simply nonsense, in this case, who will calculate the time, and who will be stupid and wait for others if they run away when they light the fuse.
So he ran decisively, and in just one breath, he had already lit the bomb and started to accelerate.
The other three were slightly unexpectedly affected, and it took two and a half breaths to light the fuse and begin to escape.
The detonation time of the high-explosive copper kettle and the explosive iron ball is about the same, about three and a half breaths.
Zishang ran early, ran fast, not long ago when he first explored the cauldron stream, the traceless snow broke through Xiaocheng, coupled with the acceleration of the cloud tracking, he was the first to rush out of the tunnel.
At this time, the explosive iron ball he was responsible for was also the first to explode.
When Xu Cheng and the others were still sprinting in the last ten zhang of the tunnel, they heard a huge roar, and the tunnel kept falling slag. They were all very surprised that someone had lit the fuse within the agreed time of two breaths!
Especially Xu Yan, he couldn't believe it, he knew very well that Xu Bozhou's Li Fangniu's strength could not be faster than him.
"Could it be...... That kid?"
Boom! Boom!
Three louder bangs, almost simultaneously. The tunnel collapsed quickly, Xu Cheng ran the fastest, and the moment he ran out, the tunnel collapsed. Xu Bozhou and Li Fangniu were not so lucky. They slowed down a beat, so they finally rushed out with this large pile of dirt.
The earth shook violently, dozens of cracks spread out from the center of the explosion like cobwebs, and the foundations of some buildings around the Taishou Mansion were directly shattered and collapsed.
Xu Cheng and the others looked back at the center of the explosion, only to see a large amount of earth being blown into the air, forming a dark cloud, with broken stones and broken trees flying, and a radius of ten zhang with the ravine as the center was destroyed by the shock wave and pushed down.
Even if the high-explosive copper kettle exploded at a depth of three zhang, it still produced a cylindrical mushroom cloud three zhang high and two zhang in diameter, and a large cloud of dirt exploded four or five zhang and then smashed to the ground.
Dozens of feet away, what still makes people feel frightened is the black cold air that erupts out.
The originally rich cold aura and the coercion of the bones of the Holy Realm shrouded around the coffin, and in the thunderbolt-like explosion on a sunny day, these energies also burst out.
A dark cloud shrouded the center of the explosion for a long time, and the central pit continuously released yin qi.
But everyone knows that they succeeded in blowing up the coffin!
