Qu Wuming walked to the sarcophagus and looked at it carefully. Only then did he realize that the material of the holy coffin did not seem to be stone, but a material that was neither gold nor stone. However, its texture seemed to be extremely hard, and the power of spiritual consciousness could not penetrate it at all. It's obviously not an ordinary thing. And the surface of this holy coffin is almost covered with the words of ghost servants and weird and mysterious runes. When the power of divine consciousness touches these runes, you can actually feel the faint suction coming from it. It seems to be swallowing up the power of divine consciousness.

Qu Wuming couldn't help but become more curious about the so-called "holy coffin" itself. He walked around it and found that the holy coffin seemed to be carved from a whole piece of material. The natural texture of the material was on the coffin body and The position of the coffin lid actually feels like one piece.

At this time, the lid of the holy coffin was tight and tight. It was obvious that Xing Xin had not had time to open it after stealing it.

Since this holy coffin is one of the holy objects of the ghost servant clan, what is sealed in it?

Qu Wuming knew the answer in his heart.

Originally, Qu Wuming didn't covet the treasures in the Ghost Servant's Holy Coffin at all, because he didn't think he had the ability to get the Holy Coffin.

According to the "Encyclopedia of Creatures in the Underworld", in the settlements of the ghost servant clan, different "holy objects" are usually enshrined. It varies depending on its size and the strength of the high-level ghost servant monks in the settlement.

These holy objects may be statues, some kind of artifacts, or they may be magic weapons.

But regardless of their size and style, these "holy objects" seem to have different special features.

Among these "holy objects", there is a special sacred object called the "holy coffin". It is said that the holy coffin contains some kind of mysterious blood.

In the "Encyclopedia of Creatures in the Underworld", apart from this "Holy Coffin", there is no record of the styles and special features of other holy objects. However, it only mentions that the "Holy Coffin" is equivalent to the Void Refining Stage level. A sacred object that only the Ghost Servant Village is eligible to possess.

Among the rewards issued by the Alchemist Sect this time, there is something related to it - the Holy Blood of the Ghost Servant.

If it weren't for the reward from the Alchemy Master Sect, Qu Wuming would never have even heard of such a thing as "holy blood" in this world. However, considering that wherever there is holy blood, there will be ghost servant monks equivalent to the Void Refining Stage to guard him. Wuming originally didn't have much hope of getting this thing.

However, some things in the world are just such coincidences. Many of the things you have been pursuing for a long time may not be available to you. Sometimes you don't expect too much, but luck falls on you.

Qu Wuming tentatively pressed his hand gently on the holy coffin. The tentacles were cold, as if he were touching a piece of mysterious ice. However, standing beside the holy coffin, he could not feel the slightest bit of coldness at all. It was extremely strange.

Qu Wuming briefly judged the direction, and pushed the lid of the holy coffin hard from one end. He heard a muffled sound, and Qu Wuming pushed the lid of the holy coffin open by more than a foot.

Before Qu Wuming could look inside, Qu Wuming felt a strong smell of blood coming towards his face, which scared him so much that he quickly stepped back a few steps.

However, nothing flew out of the holy coffin, and it seemed to be safe.

But Qu Wuming felt something was wrong.

Because at the moment when the holy coffin was opened by him, he clearly felt that the blood in his body suddenly "boiled".

However, that feeling was fleeting and left no trace. It was more like an illusion.

Qu Wuming knew that it was definitely not an illusion.

But what Qu Wuming didn't know was that at that moment, when his blood was "boiling", the three-headed and six-armed demonic figure was sitting quietly in the void of his Dantian in the form of a phantom with his eyes closed. , I also opened six eyes at that moment!

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Qu Wuming's attention was all attracted by the strange movement in his blood, and he did not notice the strange movement of the shadow in his dantian.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual in the holy coffin, Qu Wuming slowly stepped forward again and looked into the holy coffin.

I saw that the inner wall of the holy coffin was also engraved with countless mysterious runes. Although no one was urging it, it still shone with a faint white light, illuminating the inside of the holy coffin very brightly.

These runes, together with the runes outside, seemed to form some kind of magical array. However, Qu Wuming had never seen or heard of this array, and had no way of judging its function.

The space inside the holy coffin is not small, enough for three or four burly men of Qu Wuming's size to lie stacked up inside. But it was not empty inside at this time - about two-thirds of the space was occupied by some dark red blood.

"Is this the Holy Blood of the Ghost Servant?" Qu Wuming looked at the dark red blood, but he didn't seem to feel anything different and strange in it. Whether it was the color or the taste, it didn't seem to be much different from human blood. difference.

Qu Wuming hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but be curious, and used the power of his spiritual consciousness to explore the holy blood of the ghost servant.

The power of divine consciousness became invisible and became tangible, condensed into a tentacle as thin as a finger, and slowly touched the calm blood of the ghost servant in the holy coffin.

Using the power of spiritual consciousness to detect unknown objects, it is safer to touch them with hands or other parts of the body.

Once you find something wrong, you can cut off the power of the divine consciousness at any time. Some losses may be recovered by just sitting cross-legged and meditating for a while, and will not affect the ascetic himself too much.

But if you touch it with your fingers, once a foreign object invades your body, and you need to amputate your limbs to survive, it cannot be recovered by just meditating.

At first, a warm feeling came from Qu Wuming's consciousness - the holy blood of the ghost servants was as warm and fresh as if it were inside a human being!

"How is this possible?!" Qu Wuming couldn't help but be surprised. The power of divine consciousness continued to extend into the holy blood, and the front ends of the "tentacles" were further spread out. He wanted to explore what was inside the holy blood of the ghost servant. What secrets it holds.

As the power of his spiritual consciousness continued to deepen, Qu Wuming felt more and more the extraordinaryness of the ghost servant's holy blood - the temperature of the ghost servant's holy blood everywhere did not come from this holy coffin, but from the holy blood itself. This temperature was higher than The body temperature of ordinary people is slightly higher. Where the power of spiritual consciousness comes into contact with the holy blood of the ghost servant, one can clearly feel the majestic and pure vitality contained in this holy blood.

"This ghost servant's holy blood gives me a feeling that it seems to be purer than the vitality contained in the best healing elixir I have ever seen!" Qu Wuming said to himself, "If it were left to someone like Han Tian Alchemist, I guess you can make a very high-grade healing elixir with a little sacrifice, right? Judging from the energy contained in this holy blood, it is unknown that that elixir can revive human flesh and bones!"

"No wonder the Alchemy Master Sect must have asked for this kind of treasure!" Qu Wuming suddenly said, "With this ghost servant's holy blood, plus the other things they asked for... I'm afraid the Alchemy Master Sect wants to resurrect some important person. ?”

"I don't know if they need so much ghost servant holy blood..."

"Wouldn't it be better if I divide half of it first and give it to my good brother to refine into elixirs in the future?"

Qu Wuming was thinking secretly in his heart, and wanted to take back the power of his spiritual consciousness.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that behind the power of divine consciousness that had clearly withdrawn the Holy Blood of the Ghost Servant, a drop of the Holy Blood of the Ghost Servant flew up, and suddenly flew toward his eyebrows!

Qu Wuming couldn't help being shocked, and hurriedly cut off the power of the spiritual consciousness, and his body turned into a stream of light and quickly fled backwards.

However, to Qu Wuming's surprise, the drop of Ghost Servant's holy blood ignored Qu Wuming's move to cut off the power of his spiritual consciousness, and actually hit Qu Wuming's eyebrows with lightning speed and precision!

Qu Wuming felt his head buzzing. Although he was still flying back, his body was broken into a cold sweat!

When Qu Wuming suddenly flew to the entrance of the cave and stopped, his close-fitting clothes were already wet with cold sweat. Qu Wuming, still a little frightened, raised his hand and touched the area between his eyebrows.

There was no trace of blood except sweat.

Qu Wuming was busy using inner vision to check his head, the sea of ​​consciousness, the Zifu space...

No trace anywhere.

It was as if the scene just now was just his imagination and had never happened at all.

Qu Wuming knew that this situation was not normal, so he hurriedly expanded the scope of his inner vision to cover his whole body, and even called Qu Wushe in, scanning the whole body with the power of spiritual consciousness beside him.

However, the two of them were busy burning incense for half a day, but they got nothing.

"Boss, did the Holy Blood of the Ghost Servant really 'jump' out and hit you?" Qu Wushe asked in disbelief, "But I've checked it carefully several times, and it seems that there really isn't any in your body. Any foreign objects..."

Qu Wuming frowned, feeling a little dazed in his heart at this moment. He pondered for a moment and then said: "I can't remember it wrong... I can even remember the weird feeling when it touched the center of my eyebrows. But ...There seems to be no trace of it in my body at this time, and I don’t have any abnormalities on my body.”

"Boss, how about... let me try?" Qu Wushe looked at the dark red blood in the holy coffin, and for some reason he felt eager to try.

"It's better not to create any complications. If you want to try it, it's not too late to wait until we return to the Eastern Continent safely and go to the Spirit Seal Sect to try again." Qu Wuming shook his head, took a few steps forward, and carefully lifted the lid of the holy coffin. He covered it again and made sure it was tightly closed. Still not at ease, he put it into a storage ring and added several seals before giving up.

After collecting the holy coffin, Qu Wuming took Qu Wushe into the Zifu space, and then turned into a ray of light, flying around in the cave. A white beam of light came from the center of Qu Wuming's eyebrows. Sweeping it out, rolling through the shelves and items in the hole, all the collections left by Xing Xin were taken away in the blink of an eye, not even the shelves were left behind...

Afterwards, after checking again and confirming that there were only the prisoners whose souls, mana and essence were extracted by Xing Xin, there were no treasures left in this Zifu space, Qu Wuming thought. , called out a door of light, and stepped out.

A moment later, Qu Wuming had put on the Wuwu Hiding Robe again, flew close to the ground, and left this place far away. The translucent orb was left by Qu Wuming in the cave at the heart of the mountain.

Without Qu Wuming's magic power as a support, the seals that sealed and maintained the space of Xing Xinzi Mansion gradually began to loosen and collapse. As the first dark cracks suddenly appeared from the orb, space cracks followed. Immediately afterwards, it began to shoot out from the orb, sweeping across the entire mountain in an instant.

There was only a muffled rumble, and the low mountain collapsed suddenly as if someone had hollowed it out, followed by the roar of an earthquake and billowing smoke and dust rising into the sky...

However, what Qu Wuming didn't know was that at the moment he flew away from here, a strange smile flashed across the face of the three-headed and six-armed demon phantom that was cross-legged in the Zi Mansion space...
