Chapter 1921 - 3: Venomous Centipede

It was a jade seal, engraved with the image of a nine-headed True Dragon, which shocked Lin Feng greatly.

Could it be the legendary True Dragon Treasure Seal?

The True Dragon Treasure Seal is no ordinary artifact; it is the supreme treasure crafted by the True Dragon Clan.

Although the True Dragon Clan is extremely scarce in number,

over the ages,

the appearance of nine True Dragon Emperors shows how formidable this clan is.

If it truly is the True Dragon Treasure Seal, that would be astounding, as even ordinary Emperor Weapons cannot compare to it.

Lin Feng’s Nine Demon Map,

even it cannot compete against the True Dragon Treasure Seal.

He quickly walked over, took the True Dragon Treasure Seal into his hands, and began to carefully observe it.

The nine-headed True Dragons depicted on it were vivid and lifelike, baring fangs and brandishing claws, as if they were about to come to life.

This gave a feeling of heart-pounding fear.

Lin Feng could feel powerful energy fluctuations from within the True Dragon Treasure Seal.

He felt that,

the energy contained within this True Dragon Treasure Seal was vast and boundless like the ocean.

"What a treasure! I’m rich! I’m rich!"

Lin Feng exclaimed excitedly.

The value of such a treasure is unimaginable.

Looking at this True Dragon Treasure Seal, Lin Feng found it hard to part with it.

But soon,

his expression turned grim.

Because Lin Feng discovered something amiss.

The True Dragon Treasure Seal in his hand had a crack.

Although the crack was extremely subtle,

ordinary people might really not notice it, but the observant Lin Feng did.

"It’s not the True Dragon Treasure Seal after all!"

Lin Feng couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed.

A treasure like the True Dragon Treasure Seal, naturally, shouldn’t have cracks.

Generally, treasures of this level have the ability to repair themselves.

Unless the True Dragon Treasure Seal is utterly destroyed.

Just like the Devouring Sky Vase,

which was shattered.

Only in such a case would a supreme treasure of this level lose its self-repairing ability.

If it were a normal crack, it would quickly restore itself.

This is also the reason why Lin Feng determined this treasure wasn’t the True Dragon Treasure Seal.

The Demon Monarch said, "Indeed, it’s made according to the appearance of the True Dragon Treasure Seal, but this treasure isn’t the True Dragon Treasure Seal. I suspect it may be a powerful forbidden artifact. Try to sense it with your Divine Sense!"

Lin Feng nodded. His Divine Sense penetrated into the treasure seal.

He acquired the information of this treasure seal.

Just as the Demon Monarch said, this treasure seal is a forbidden artifact crafted based on the True Dragon Treasure Seal’s craftsmanship.

Lin Feng wasn’t dealing with a forbidden artifact for the first time.

The power of forbidden artifacts is often terrifying.

But their usage is limited.

Generally, a forbidden artifact can be used ten times.

After ten uses,

the forbidden artifact will be destroyed.

As for the treasure seal in front of him, it had already been used eight times, leaving two uses left.

Lin Feng put the treasure seal away.

Even though it only has two uses left,

it’s still extremely precious.

A forbidden artifact modeled after the True Dragon Treasure Seal,

once its power is released, is definitely stronger than the Nine Demon Map.

At a critical moment,

this treasure can serve as a deadly weapon,

delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.

...

Subsequently, Lin Feng began to inspect these corpses. After examining the bones, he found they were well-preserved, with no fractures.

This indicates,

that before they died, the people in the hall hadn’t engaged in combat.

If they had fought, injuries were inevitable.

Of course, it’s also possible that,

the attacker was too powerful, not giving these people a chance to resist, and directly killed them.

If that were the case, these people wouldn’t have wounds when they died.

But regardless of the situation,

after countless years, the cause of their death remains a mystery.

Lin Feng collected all the storage rings from these corpses, letting his Divine Sense invade them.

He couldn’t help but curse shortly after.

All the internal spaces of these storage rings were destroyed.

Originally, he hoped to gain a fortune,

but now that hope had turned into a pipe dream.

Lin Feng searched the hall thoroughly, yet found nothing special. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed that the statues enshrined in this hall also had human bodies with centipede heads.

"This statue is identical to the one outside!"

Lin Feng muttered, jumping onto the shrine, and smashed the statue into pieces with a few punches and kicks.

Only then did he leave the hall, satisfied.

Next, Lin Feng entered the second hall.

Inside the second hall, there were also many bones.

Many people had died here as well.

Lin Feng couldn’t help but frown.

After investigating, he found that the bodies in the second hall were also uninjured.

Just like the corpses in the first hall.

He checked the storage rings of these people, and, like those of the cultivators in the first hall, all their internal spaces had collapsed.

After smashing the statue on the shrine to pieces again, Lin Feng left the second hall.

Following this,

he explored one hall after another.

In every hall, many cultivators had died.

And none of those cultivators had any injuries.

Their storage rings were similarly destroyed.

Before leaving, the statues in the halls were all smashed by Lin Feng.

Finally, he entered the main hall.

The main hall was larger and enshrined three statues.

The central statue had a human body with a scorpion head.

The left statue had a human body with a crocodile head.

The right statue had a human body with a wolf head.

There were also many skeletons inside the hall.

The main hall had many more bones than the side halls.

These skeletons also had no injuries and died in a rather strange way.

Lin Feng also checked the storage rings of these people.

To his joy,

one storage ring wasn’t destroyed.

He put that storage ring away.

Planning to check out what treasures it held when he returned.

As Lin Feng stood before the shrine to destroy the three statues,

suddenly, at that moment,

a palm-sized, pitch-black centipede crawled out from underground.

The centipede shot into the air,

its speed like lightning.

Shooting rapidly towards Lin Feng.

Lin Feng sensed it, turning to unleash a Sword Qi.

With a hiss,

the centipede was chopped in half by Lin Feng’s Sword Qi.

However, what Lin Feng didn’t expect was that the centipede’s vitality was incredibly strong.

Even after being sliced in half by Lin Feng’s Sword Qi, it didn’t die.

Half of its body rushed swiftly to Lin Feng’s front.

It bit his hand,

causing a sharp pain, and Lin Feng hurriedly crushed the centipede to death.

But in the next moment,

Lin Feng felt powerless.

As if his head was about to split open.

His vision blurred.

Even his consciousness became hazy.

Nearly collapsing onto the ground.

Starting from his hand,

his body began to turn pitch black.

Lin Feng was poisoned.

The level of terror of the centipede’s venom was unimaginable.

Even Lin Feng couldn’t resist the centipede’s severe poison.
