Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 460 Crypt (6)

When Mo Ze Chen pulled out the glow stick, he found that what he had expected to happen didn't happen.

The light of the glow stick remained inside the glow stick and wasn't sucked out of it like the other glow stick that he had thrown previously.

Mo Ze Chen couldn't help looking around and he found that the first glow stick that he had thrown wasn't that far away from him.

These glow sticks of his were made of a special material, which meant that it was much harder than normal glow sticks. It wasn't strange that this thing was still intact after falling down all those stairs, but this glow stick no longer lit up.

Mo Ze Chen looked closer at the glow stick and found that there wasn't anything wrong with the glow stick itself, the only thing that was wrong with it was that it wouldn't light up at all. It was almost as if there was something that had sucked out the essence of the material inside that glowed, so that it no longer glowed.

But the good thing was that if it was only the thing inside that was broken, then this was easy to fix and that meant that Mo Ze Chen wouldn't have to spend a fortune to replace it.

What Lin Fan cared about wasn't this, but rather he was looking at the still glowing glow stick in Mo Ze Chen's hand.

It seemed like whatever the force was in the stairs clearly wasn't present in this hallway, which meant that there was nothing stopping them from pulling out lights to use.

But that was strange since why would there only be this force on the stairs, why did it suddenly disappear once they finished descending these stairs?

Could it be that there was something else to the stairs that they hadn't seen?

Could it be that there was a trap that was only activated in darkness?

If that was true, they really had dodged a bullet there since if they couldn't find anything to light the way, Lin Fan had almost considered going down in the darkness and finding some way to get some light once they were down.

But since there was no need for the torches anymore since they could bring out the newest tracking lights that Mo Ze Chen had, Lin Fan was about to put the two maids back into the pet space.

However, before he could do that, one of them suddenly asked, "Can we stay out here with you, master?"

Lin Fan was surprised to hear this, but seeing the way that they were looking at Mo Ze Chen, it wasn't hard for him to figure out what they were thinking. Though once he did realize this, Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a strange look as he turned to look at Mo Ze Chen.

Not only Lulu, it seemed like he had also somehow attracted these two maids of his…

Just what was it about this little fatty that was so attractive?

Though Lin Fan thought this, he wasn't jealous of Mo Ze Chen at all. Rather, he didn't dare to be jealous knowing who was waiting for him.

Instead, he decided to have some fun at Mo Ze Chen's expense. It definitely wasn't like he was jealous at all.

Not to mention that these girls were definitely a better choice than having the tracking lights since those tracking lights were quite weak. It was quite easy to destroy those tracking lights, so instead of using them, it would definitely be better to have these girls follow with torches since they were much better at defending themselves.

So with that, Lin Fan decided to let the girls follow them, but they did stick a bit too close to Mo Ze Chen who didn't seem to notice.

Well, it was a lie to say that he didn't notice at all since they were so close that they cut into his personal space, but they were maids that served Lin Fan, so he couldn't say anything. After all, just like the maids, he was a bit afraid of Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was secretly enjoying it, but at the same time, he moved to the first doors that were in front of him.

This was a place that was filled with many doors and there were two right across from each other that were right in front of him. After thinking about it, Lin Fan chose to go to the room on the right.

There wasn't any opening in the door that they could look through and when Lin Fan tried to send his spiritual sense in, it was completely blocked off by the door, or rather some kind of energy barrier that was around the door.

It seemed that unless he opened the door, he wouldn't be able to find out what was inside.

So with no other choice, Lin Fan slowly pushed open the door, allowing the light of the torches to enter the room.

The room was the same as the one that they had been in previously before coming down the stairs, being just as small, but there were differences. Unlike the room before, it wasn't lit up with torches and it wasn't completely empty.

In the place where the stairs should have been, there was a coffin that laid there with its lid firmly shut.

There wasn't any identifying detail that was present on this coffin, so they couldn't tell who was in there, but they could feel some energy seeping out of the seams of the coffin. There was no mistaking it, there was definitely someone who was in this coffin.

Perhaps it would have been better to leave this coffin alone, but Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen didn't have time for that since they were fighting against the clock. They had to quickly finish the trial in this last location and move on, but they didn't have any clues so far.

As the saying goes, there was no reward without taking any risks.

So cautiously, Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen moved towards the coffin that was in the center and moved to the sides of it to surround the coffin. As for the two maid girls, they stood by the entrance of the room, holding their torches to light up the room. Since this was a small room, it wasn't hard for them to light it up with just two torches.

After coming to both sides of the coffin, Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen began looking it over just to find nothing special about it.

It was just a simple coffin that didn't have any decorating features on it at all, so there was nothing that they could gather from this.

It was clear that they had no choice but to open it to see if there was anything useful inside.

After confirming this, the two of them looked at each other and they didn't say anything as Lin Fan raised his hand towards the lid of the coffin. Once his hand was on the lid of the coffin, Lin Fan didn't open it right away as he looked at Mo Ze Chen to give a nod before turning back down and starting to count.

"3, 2, 1."

At the end of this count, Lin Fan suddenly pulled up the lid of the coffin.

Both of them had their guard up when this happened, but they were still caught off guard by what had popped out.

It wasn't some monster that was trapped inside this coffin, it was a human corpse, but this wasn't just a simple human corpse. The corpse that was inside was just like the ghosts that had wandered outside, but it was clearly much stronger, being at the peak Embryo Soul Realm.

The moment that the coffin lid was pulled off, there were two hands that suddenly stabbed out at both their faces on the sides of the coffin. These two hands came up with the lid, but it came out from the sides at a speed that was faster than the lid being lifted up.

Both Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen had been prepared, so while they were surprised by the claws that had suddenly appeared, neither of them stayed in a daze for long as they pulled out their weapons to block it.

Since Mo Ze Chen was weaker, he wasn't able to completely block the attack and had been sent flying into the wall of the room. As he hit the wall, he couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood.

As for Lin Fan, he was much stronger than Mo Ze Chen, so he was able to completely block this attack and he did it with relative ease. He was already at the level of the Child Soul Realm, so this wasn't much for him.

However, it didn't stop there as the ghost that had sat up as it attacked suddenly twisted its upper body to attack at Lin Fan again.

Since they had been attacked so suddenly, both Lin Fan and Mo Ze Chen had released their laws instinctively. With the laws released, their lives weren't at danger, which was why the golden glow hadn't activated.

But now that Lin Fan had already gathered himself after his surprise, he released the laws that had been around his sword.

After dodging the attack of the ghost by the narrowest of margins so that it nicked him, Lin Fan swept out with his sword. By dodging by just the narrowest of margins, the golden energy had appeared around Lin Fan's sword and while being coated, it cut right through the ghost.

Just like with all the other ghosts, this ghost had been turned into ashes with just a single sweep of Lin Fan's sword.
