Chapter 1: The Life and Death Formation (Prelude...)

  This went on for a full twenty minutes, and the once vigorous Corpse King was immediately worn out.

  Another earth guardian was shattered, Liu Yun drank a bottle of spiritual recovery agent and prepared to continue condensing the earth guardian.

  At this time, however, the corpse king suddenly retreated several steps and stretched out his right hand to unlock the iron chain on top of his head layer by layer.

  It started attacking with iron chains!

  Liu Yun's heart sank, and he directly withdrew the spell of the Earth God's Gate. Without hesitation, he jumped off the iron plate and landed on the ground, grasping the Langya sword and stabbing it at the corpse king.

  According to the memory of the previous life, when the corpse king's life force drops to 20%, it will unlock the iron chain in its hand and attack the player. At that time, its destructive power and attack range will be greatly enhanced.

  At that time, staying on the iron plate was meaningless, and the four-meter distance was already within the range of the Corpse King's attack.

  Look, Liu Yun jumped down, and the speed of the corpse king unlocking the iron chain also increased a bit.

  Damn! It's actually speeding up!

  Liu Yun cursed loudly in his heart, his right hand tightly grasping the Langya sword, stabbing towards the throat of the Corpse King.

  The action is quick and swift, without any hesitation or delay.

  He was originally a member of the ancient martial arts family, the Liu family, and had played Kunlun for nearly ten years in his previous life. He was skilled with swords and this light and agile swordsmanship was also performed with great skill.

  Pfft!

  The Langya sword pierced into the throat of the corpse king with great force, and immediately, a foul-smelling liquid, like erupting magma, splashed in all directions.

  This is still an attack on the vitals, if it were any other part of the body, this Langya sword would not know whether it could penetrate, although it has a sharpness of 9%, but in front of the corpse king's strong defense, this sharpness can be ignored.

  The corpse king struggled painfully, his right arm swung out, and the iron chain that had not been fully untied hit Liu Yun's body.

  A surge of powerful energy spread throughout Liu Yun's entire body, as if his internal organs were all stirred up.

  "Life force decreased by 35%."

  A heart-stopping alarm suddenly sounded in his ear.

  Liu Yun gritted his teeth, forcing himself to muster up his spirit, steadying his body which had retreated due to the force, and continued to swing the Langya sword, stabbing towards the Corpse King's throat. This momentum was as if he wanted to behead the Corpse King.

  The Corpse King also became enraged, ignoring the pain in his neck, and directly opened his big mouth to spew out a stream of toxic liquid.

  "Your Life - 1 (Percent Sign)"

  "Your Life - 1 (Percent Sign)"

  Infected with corpse poison, his vitality plummeted again, and the numbness and pain of decay all over his body made Liu Yun's consciousness more and more blurred. However, he became fierce, and the Langya sword in his hand kept chopping towards the neck of the Corpse King. The Corpse King had been ground down to almost nothing, and at this time, it was a matter of who could kill faster.

  "You hit the Corpse King for 1% of his life force!"

  "You hit the Corpse King for 1% of his life force!"

  Liu Yun's eyes almost turned red...

  Crack!!

  The skull of the Corpse King was suddenly beheaded by the Langya sword!

  Ding! "You killed the Corpse King of Ten Thousand Years, +999 to your Qi."

  A pleasant sound rang out, and then the corpse king's massive body fell straight down.

  Boom!

  A burst of dust rose, and then came a ringing sound. A shiny key and an iron chain with a bronze color fell out.

  Liu Yun saw it at a glance, but directly sat on the ground, panting heavily.

  Overkill this thing, it's really not something easy. If it wasn't for the previous half of the blood being worn out, Liu Yun's strength wouldn't be enough to look at.

  After catching his breath, he got up from the ground and picked up the key and the iron chain that had burst out of the corpse king's body.

  Ten Thousand Year Cold Iron Chain: An iron chain made from Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice Iron, used to lock up the Ten Thousand Year Corpse King.

  Attributes: Indestructible value +55. Attack range increased to 5 meters.

  Worn by: The Unyielding (Tier 1)

  Indestructible value can be increased by 55 points, and this magic treasure is considered a small extreme product in the early stage.

  But it's not the equipment of Qian Kun, can only exchange things now.

  Throwing the iron chain back into the package, Liu Yun looked at the key again.

  Tao Ghost Key: The key to open the treasure chest of Tao Ghost Cave Mansion.

  Seeing this line of words, Liu Yun's heart was filled with joy, and he quickly walked towards the distant white jade stone platform.

  Take the key and open the first box.

  Crack!

  A white light shot out from inside the box, and immediately afterwards, a greenish-yellow robe appeared before Liu Yun's eyes.

  Taoist Ghost Cloak: (Tool) Attributes unidentified.

  Seeing this description, Liu Yun's heart was as sweet as eating honey, and she was overjoyed!!

  It's actually a ritual tool, not a whiteboard marker!!

  With suppressed excitement in her heart, Liu Yun opened the second box again.

  Crack!

  An old-fashioned book was placed at the bottom of the box.

  Liu Yun took it out and took a look at it.

  Decoy Technique: After being attacked, a straw man can be conjured to confuse the enemy, while the real body flashes to any position within three meters. Cooldown time: Ten minutes. Learning condition: Any cultivation of first-level earth grade.

  This is a universal skill for all professions, and it's also a very practical lifesaving skill. I acquired this skill in my previous life when I entered the second layer of the underground, spending 3 taels of silver to buy it from another player. In the early stages, this skill was rare and almost no one had it.

  Liu Yun hastily put away the book, and immediately, the name "Substitution Technique" appeared in his skill bar.

  Eagerly opening the third box, Liu Yun was no longer so excited. Even if the third box didn't produce anything good, it didn't matter, the first two boxes were enough to make him rich.

  The third box was opened, and inside it was placed an iron-made object resembling a lotus flower.

  Yun Liu looked at it for a moment, stunned, somewhat puzzled, carefully picked it up and examined it carefully, feeling a bit familiar.

  Suddenly, a scene flashed through her mind, and Liu Yun's pupils enlarged several times.

  "Is this really it!?"

  Liu Yun felt a slight fever on his forehead. He was particularly sensitive to treasures, especially some very famous ones, and once he saw them, he couldn't forget them.

  Thoughts were racing. At the beginning, the number one assassin in China, Wu Qing, when facing more than 70 players with high-level cultivation and sharp treasures, released that one treasure...

  Heavy rain pear flower needle!!

  That battle was the first of many where he was outnumbered, but it was also the one that made him famous. The scene where over 70 players were taken down by the instant launch of 120,000 steel needles is still shocking to this day. From start to finish, the fight only lasted five seconds, and in the end, only Ruthless was left standing...

  Some players secretly recorded that scene and put it on the internet, instantly causing a stir.

  Innumerable players went crazy for such a treasure, while Wu Qing became famous overnight.

  However, players' overwhelming reports also emerged.

  The Rainstorm Lihua Needle is really too perverted, won't such a treasure affect the game balance?

  But the official answer given was only one, which is the attribute of Baoyu Liuhua Needle.

  Stormy Raindrop Needle (Taoist Instrument): Releases 120,000 steel needles with armor-piercing properties within 5 seconds. Each needle's damage is calculated based on the target's life force and physique. (Can only be used once.)

  Taoist artifact!! And it's a Taoist artifact that can only be used once!!

  As soon as this data came out, those who reported it suddenly lost their temper. Others took out the ruthless words, what else can you say? Moreover, this kind of treasure that can only be used once usually has a much stronger power than those that can be used infinitely.

  "It seems that the person who broke into this Ghost Cave Mansion last time is likely to be Wu Qing!"

  Liu Yun murmured to herself.

  Put the plum blossom needle directly into the package, and looked around in all directions again.

  The cave house has nothing left, replaced with the last batch of amulets, filled with blood blue, Liu Yun turned around and planned to return to the village.

  Just a few steps away, Liu Yun suddenly felt something was off, and an inexplicable sense of unease made him slow down his pace.

  "Brother, I'm counting on you, you should come out soon!! But let's wait a bit longer!!"

  Just then, a voice rang out abruptly on the road ahead...
