"Don't panic, stay calm. If all else fails, we can risk using earth-遁术 (earth-遁术, a technique that allows one to escape from the ground) to climb to the surface. Although the chances are slim, it's better than waiting to die here."

Wang Chao said calmly, but in truth, his heart was not at peace either; the appearance of this black wooden coffin was too strange.

It suddenly appeared out of the void, and as soon as it appeared, it "ate" Ying Hai and those expressionless faces.

For a moment, a tense atmosphere filled the entire circular hole.

No one can face such a man-eating wooden coffin with equanimity.

After the black wooden coffin had "eaten" those people, it stopped moving.

For a moment, the spherical space became very quiet, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly oppressive.

"Damn it! I can't take it anymore!"

A middle-aged man with a pale face, unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, rushed out of the crowd.

call out!

Judging from his cultivation level, he is a Qi Refining Stage 4 cultivator, and he has been at Qi Refining Stage 4 for some years. His sword control technique is very stable.

He moved very fast, and in the blink of an eye, the flying sword approached the black wooden coffin. Everyone looked at the cultivator, wanting to see what would happen.

"Oh!"

The cultivator turned into a cloud of blood mist and was instantly sucked into the black wooden coffin.

Now, no one dared to make any further moves; the lessons of the past were right before their eyes.

Gradually, as time passed, everyone discovered that the black wooden coffin did not seem to move.

In other words, as long as everyone stays away from the black wooden coffin, there will be no danger to their lives.

"Buzz!"

Amidst the tense expressions of the crowd, the massive black coffin trembled slightly.

"Buzz!"

The frequency of the tremors became increasingly intense.

"boom!"

The lid of the black coffin suddenly shifted, but still no one dared to take a step forward.

Although the speed was very slow, everyone could still observe that the lid of the black coffin was slowly opening.

When it was about a third of the way open, the black coffin stopped moving.

"Wow!"

Everyone was shocked again, because at that moment, a towering figure stood on the black coffin.

This figure was extremely burly; Wang Chao estimated that he was at least 1.9 meters tall, or even 2 meters. By ordinary standards, this height is considered very tall.

This two-meter-tall figure was dressed in a black dragon robe. His face was an unhealthy pale white, and there was a vermilion rune between his eyebrows.

"It's the King of Qin! He's not dead!"

A shocked voice came from the crowd. Clearly, in the world's perception, King Ying Zheng of Qin was already dead; otherwise, Ying Hai would not have been able to ascend the throne.

Moreover, those literary figures dared not criticize them verbally or in writing.

"Was the news of the King of Qin's death spread by someone else, or did someone witness it?"

Wang Chao turned to Li San behind him and asked, "If he really came back from the dead, then this King of Qin is truly too heaven-defying."

"The news of the King of Qin's death came from inside the palace. His death was very sudden, causing chaos throughout the court and the country, and no one witnessed his death."

The palace maid who spread the news also vanished without a trace, as if she had disappeared into thin air.

Li San tried hard to recall and found that there were indeed many suspicious things.

Wang Chao pondered. At that moment, the King of Qin was standing perfectly upright on the black coffin. If he hadn't risen from the dead, then it meant he was still alive.

If that's the case, then everyone present will probably become victims. Could it be that this King Qin has cultivated some kind of demonic art?

"Buzz!"

A large amount of black mist emerged from the King of Qin's body, making him virtually invisible in the darkness without careful observation.

At this moment, the black mist is spreading outwards.

"The King of Qin has come back to life! Everyone run!"

Panic suddenly erupted in the crowd. Originally, everyone wanted to wait and see if there was any way to deal with the situation, but now it seemed that whether they could even return to the ground alive was a question.

However, not everyone was in a state of panic. There were still some people in the crowd who remained unmoved and calm.

"Senior Brother Mo, I've long heard that this King Qin possesses the combat power of the Foundation Establishment stage. Seeing him today, I can confirm that he is indeed extraordinary."

For an ordinary person to achieve this level of accomplishment is something to be proud of.

On the right front side of the dynasty, two figures stood proudly, their expressions calm and without the slightest panic.

“Junior Brother Zhang, we are both at the eleventh stage of Qi Refining. Even the Foundation Establishment elders in the sect are no match for us. Are we afraid of him?”

The monk surnamed Mo wore a disdainful expression, clearly showing that he was not afraid of King Ying Zheng's methods.

"Who are those two? Why are they so calm? I heard that the King of Qin is strong enough to fight against a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Could they also be Foundation Establishment cultivators?"

When Wang Chao saw the two figures, their calm and composed expressions didn't seem feigned.

"How could I have forgotten about these two great figures? These are the two holy sons of the Northern Region Blade Sect! They are both beings who have surpassed the ninth stage of Qi Refining!"

It is said that their cultivation level has reached the eleventh stage of Qi Refining, a realm that can only be achieved through ancient cultivation methods.

When I was still in the sect, I heard about the two of them, who had defeated the sect's Foundation Establishment elders. However, that was a year ago.

Now, they're probably even more powerful. With these two around, we can flatter them and beg them to take us out.

When Li San saw the two figures, his eyes lit up. Clearly, he was also very pleasantly surprised by the appearance of these two holy sons.

"Oh!"

On the ground to the left front of Wang Chao and the others, a small bump appeared, and the people around the bump quickly moved away.

Wang Chao and the others also silently took a step back. It was better to be cautious in the face of this sudden situation.

"Oh!"

A silver, humanoid creature emerged from underground.

"bass!"

Some quick-reacting cultivators instantly summoned their flying swords and slashed at the silver humanoid creature.

He did not approach the silver humanoid creature, but instead used his sword control technique. Clearly, the scene of the black wooden coffin "eating" people was too shocking, and everyone was still in shock.

"clang!"

The silver figure also knew how to use a flying sword, and was quite agile, successfully blocking the cultivator's flying sword.

"Don't attack me, I'm a human being!"

The silver figure could actually speak human language, which startled everyone.

It shook its body, causing the silvery substance to fall off.

The aura on his body surface gradually dissipated as he trembled.

"Damn it, I just went down underground and it was all silvery liquid. If I didn't have a good sense of direction, I probably wouldn't have been able to get out!"

The figure plopped down on the ground, still looking shaken.
