Taking a breath of cold air, Lin Ye stepped out with his right foot, and his whole body rose into the air, hanging in mid-air.
As Lin Ye raised his arms, crisp cracking sounds suddenly sounded, and every bone in his body cracked inch by inch.
Finally, after all the bones in Lin Ye's body collapsed, a jet black stone rushed out of Lin Ye's chest and fell to the ground.
"This...does it mean..."
Feeling the changes in his chest, Lin Ye opened his mouth, his face full of shock: "No wonder those warriors died. It turns out that all their soul power was absorbed by this stone."
However, Lin Ye was a little confused. Since the stone could absorb soul power, why couldn't those warriors use it?
Shaking his head, Lin Ye stopped thinking and quickly pulled out the rusty long sword.
As the rust gradually faded away, a silver-white sword blade appeared in Lin Ye's sight.
"What a sharp sword."
Feeling the chill on the blade, Lin Ye's eyes suddenly lit up.
The next moment, Lin Ye had a thought, and the silver-white long sword suddenly flew out and inserted into the groove on the edge of the stone platform. In an instant, a wisp of black energy filled the air and wrapped around the silver-white long sword.
Almost in the blink of an eye, dense lines appeared on the silver-white sword.
Abruptly, the whole silver-white sword suddenly burst out with bright and dazzling light, making Lin Ye's eyes freeze.
The next moment, under the guidance of the silver-white long sword, the originally dim stone platform flashed with dazzling brilliance.
With a muffled sound, the entire stone platform exploded into pieces.
Immediately, a deep black passage appeared in Lin Ye's eyes.
"Sure enough, the passage to a higher level is in this stone chamber."
Narrowing his eyes, Lin Ye didn't bother to check his newly acquired abilities. He raised his body and rushed straight towards the dark passage.
…
In the dark and deep passage, there were constant sounds of breaking through the air.
Lin Ye was speeding through the passage. After an unknown amount of time, Lin Ye's figure stopped in a spacious square.
"This is where?"
As soon as he landed, Lin Ye frowned.
He looked around and suddenly realized that the entire square was made of special materials.
"Hey...why do I feel something is wrong?"
After glancing around, Lin Ye suddenly realized something was wrong.
Because, he found that the entire square was circular.
Moreover, in the square, in addition to the stone tablets one after another, there are also statues one after another.
After careful counting, there are eight statues, all wearing armor and holding weapons, standing there.
These statues are all so lifelike that there is no breath in the forest at all on them, they are completely dead.
"Hey, these statues... seem to be exactly the same as the mysterious statues."
His pupils shrank, and Lin Ye's heart beat hard: "Could it be that this is... the main tomb of the mysterious statue?"
At this moment, a burst of heavy footsteps sounded from the passage behind Lin Ye.
"Um?"
Hearing this voice, Lin Ye had a look of doubt on his face and turned around suddenly.
The next moment, under Lin Ye's gaze, an old man with a cold aura all over his body, tattered robes, and a large amount of blood on his body slowly walked out of the passage.
"This guy...could he be...the tomb keeper?"
Looking at the old man who exuded a rotten aura, Lin Ye frowned slightly.
"Junior, you are very smart."
The old man grinned, and a hoarse voice came from his mouth: "In that case, should you give me some reward?"
After saying this, the old man's eyes revealed murderous intent.
"Well……"
After being stunned for a moment, Lin Ye raised his eyebrows, then grinned and said, "Remuneration?"
"good."
Nodding, the old man smiled strangely: "Logically speaking, the things here should belong to me."
"But your presence disrupted my plan."
"Now that my baby has been absorbed by you, you must make it up to me."
As he spoke, the murderous intent in the old man's eyes became more intense.
The next second, the old man suddenly froze.
Not only the old man, but the other seven statues also became sluggish, as if they were soulless puppets.
"what's the situation?"
Seeing this, Lin Ziye couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition.
Just as Lin Ye was hesitating, the eyes of the eight statues suddenly burst into frightening light.
The next moment, the eight statues simultaneously released shocking power.
The violent pressure, like the weight of Mount Tai, rushed straight towards the forest.
Caught off guard, Lin Ye couldn't bear the terrible pressure. His whole body bent down and he almost fell to the ground.
"Ahem..."
After forcibly stabilizing his body, Lin Ye's face became extremely pale.
"Damn...what the hell is going on."
Raising his head with difficulty, Lin Ye's pupils narrowed and he stared at the eight statues.
The aura of those statues was actually terrifying to this extent.
However, just as Lin Ye stood up, the scene in front of him completely changed.
The original square and statues were all gone.
"Is this an illusion?"
Frowning his brows, Lin Ye looked around warily.
The next moment, two angry shouts suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a golden figure and a blue-grey giant eagle emerged from the void on the left side of the forest. As fast as lightning, they suddenly swooped towards the forest.
Two blasts of wind sounded, and the golden and blue-gray giant eagle's talons, with a cold glare, grabbed Lin Ye's head, neck, and throat respectively.
With a low curse, Lin Ye clenched his right fist and swung it out suddenly.
The next moment, Lin Ye's fist blasted out, and a terrifying force suddenly erupted, like a meteorite, slamming into the wings of the blue-gray giant eagle.
In an instant, blood spattered and the blue-gray giant eagle's wings broke directly.
The severe pain caused the blue-gray giant eagle to let out a shrill scream, then suddenly changed its direction and fled into the distance.
"Hmph. He ran pretty fast."
Looking contemptuously at the departing back of the blue-gray giant eagle, Lin Ye did not pursue it, but looked in another direction.
There, there is a stone gate.
Even though there was a thick stone door, Lin Ye could still feel an extremely majestic momentum pouring out of the stone door.
"It seems that the reward this time should be inside."
With the corner of his mouth raised, Lin Ye pushed open the stone door.
Behind the stone gate is a wide altar.
At the top of the altar, there are several beads placed. Each bead is crystal clear, like crystal, with a soft luster.
