Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

As the Kang Dynasty forces charged in, the entire Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends Formation quickly changed its formation, as if the stars were shifting and the landscape was turning upside down.

Those Heavenly Generals were like the troublemakers brought in by King Kang.

Two of the Heavenly Generals, upon discovering Chen Yibai, likely mistook him for one of the Prince of Kang's accomplices. They immediately dispersed their attack targets, brandishing their blunted nine-ringed ghost-head sabers and fiercely attacking Chen Yibai from both sides.

Although the Nine-Ring Ghost Head Saber was already dulled, with the support of these Heavenly Generals, even a wooden stick could not easily withstand its destructive power.

Chen Yibai dared not easily follow the example of King Kang and use his body to withstand the attack.

In a moment of desperation, Chen Yibai could only quickly crouch down to dodge.

The nine-ringed ghost-headed saber, whistling through the air, struck the dragon pillar just above Chen Yibai's head with a clang. The gilded cypress dragon pillar was cleaved in half, and the iron rings on the back of the saber rattled loudly.

Chen Yibai felt that the knife was less than ten centimeters away from the top of his head. If his reaction was even 0.1 seconds slower, he would be bald.

But that wasn't all. Another nine-ringed ghost head saber came flying at him, giving Chen Yibai no chance to catch his breath.

Fortunately, Chen Yibai had anticipated this and quickly performed a forward roll, dodging through the gap under the Heavenly General's arm. The two dodges were executed flawlessly, as if they had been practiced countless times beforehand.

Staying calm and clear-headed in the face of adversity is a valuable lesson learned from countless battles!

Fortunately, although these Heavenly Generals were very tall, Chen Yibai, at 1.8 meters tall, was less than the chest height of the Heavenly Generals. Although he seemed a bit petite, he had the advantage of being agile and dodging.

However, simply dodging won't suffice.

Chen Yibai is not the kind of person who would easily suffer a loss.

While dodging with a forward roll, Chen Yibai's arm, gripping the crimson ancient sword, was also busy, incidentally stabbing one of the Heavenly Generals in the calf.

Swish!

Because it was an incidental act, the force of this sword strike was not great; only half of the power was used.

However, even with only 50% of his strength, he still managed to leave a cut on the Heavenly General's calf.

Chen Yibai was overjoyed. Although the cut was not deep, it at least showed that the Crimson Ancient Sword was sharp enough to break through metal and stone to refine corpses!

However, before Chen Yibai could be happy for long, the situation on the scene changed instantly.

First, the two Heavenly Generals looked down at the cut on their calves and froze for half a second.

Because each of the Heavenly Generals possesses independent consciousness, they seem quite surprised by the sharpness of the crimson ancient sword in Chen Yibai's hand.

Immediately afterwards, the high-pitched chanting of incantations echoed once again in the main hall, as if some kind of command was being issued.

As the chanting echoed throughout the hall, the entire Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends Formation once again shifted its formation as if the stars were shifting!

Chen Yibai immediately realized that the crimson ancient sword's sharpness had made them aware of the threat!

This is a targeted attack!

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends Formation is a military formation composed of thirty-six constellations, with eight gates and four generals that can be infinitely varied, making it both offensive and defensive.

Chen Yibai could tell from the change in formation that they were trying to surround him like an iron barrel!

Chen Yibai dared not be negligent and quickly rushed in one direction, determined not to be trapped by this formation.

Otherwise, these celestial generals, who are three meters tall, would be unable to escape if they were surrounded in an iron barrel, even if they had wings.

Just as Chen Yibai was rushing out, Prince Kang suddenly intercepted him from the middle of the road.

"grass!"

Seeing the crimson figure of the King of Kang suddenly appear and charge straight at him from the side, Chen Yibai cursed inwardly.

This beast seems determined to kill himself here first, and then steal the Crimson Ancient Sword!

Like an arrow shot out, Chen Yibai didn't care about anything else and gritted his teeth to strike the Prince of Kang with all his might.

Keng!

The crimson ancient sword looked at the crimson armor on King Kang and emitted a resounding clang.

This is a contest between spear and shield.

In fact, Chen Yibai had long wanted to test which was stronger: the sharpest sword in the world or the strongest armor!

With this sword strike, Chen Yibai was so shocked that his tiger's mouth went numb, his arm ached, and he almost dropped his hand.

Looking at the red armor on King Kang's body, there was a cut on his shoulder, revealing the bright red flesh inside.

However, the cut was not very deep and did not damage his body.

To put it mildly, it was a draw.

After all, the sword and armor are a set of equipment made of the same material.

If the power were infinite, it might be able to gain the upper hand.

King Kang glanced at the damaged parts of his red armor, then looked up at Chen Yibai, his eyes darting around before he coldly said, "Return my red blade, avenge the loss of my Qiu, and I will no longer hold this against you!"

"What? What did you say?"

Chen Yibai raised an eyebrow, cursing inwardly: "I'll return the sword to you, and all our grudges will be wiped clean? Go to hell! Do you think I'm Zhulong? These days, I don't even dare to trust a human being easily, let alone your nonsense?"

However, the main reason they are being targeted by these Heavenly Generals is because of the crimson ancient sword in their hands.

If we return the Crimson Ancient Sword to King Kang now, we can draw the Heavenly Generals' attacks to King Kang and let him fight them!

Furthermore, with the added protection of King Kang's crimson armor and the crimson ancient sword, it would be like a tiger with wings, making it easy to break through the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends Formation.

Once the Thirty-Six Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends Formation is broken, we can take the opportunity to retreat from here.

If they don't give it to me, I have absolutely no chance of winning against all thirty-seven of them by myself.

Therefore, after weighing all the factors, returning the Crimson Sword to King Kang is not a bad way to save one's life.

But then I thought again, if King Kang got the Crimson Ancient Sword and then snatched the God-Sealing Pearl, wouldn't he be incredibly powerful?

Even if I manage to save my life now, I'm afraid I'll only be able to eke out a living in the future.

"no!"

Thinking of this, Chen Yibai immediately abandoned the idea of ​​handing over the Crimson Ancient Sword.

At this moment, thanks to King Kang's interception, the Heavenly Generals had the most precious time. Seeing that they were about to be surrounded like an iron barrel, there was definitely no time to break out now.

"Fuck you!"

At the critical moment, seeing that the situation was beyond redemption, Chen Yibai gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and suddenly raised his crimson ancient sword towards the Nine Dragon Golden Coffin at the top of the main hall, swinging it forcefully.

The crimson ancient sword flew out of his hand and, like a javelin, pierced straight into the Nine Dragons Golden Coffin with a clang!

"You want a sword, don't you? I'd rather throw it away than give it to you!"

After throwing the crimson ancient sword, Chen Yibai quickly drew the Vajra Umbrella from behind his back and opened it with a 'bang'.
