Chapter 914 Ancient Bronze Mirror (Two Chapters in One)
In the quiet tomb, the defeated Liu Yide lay on the ground. The previous injuries on his body caused him great pain, and screams kept coming from his mouth, but now he said nothing and there was no expression of pain on his face.
"The psychic fluctuations have completely disappeared." Under Lin Li's perception, the psychic fluctuations on the wanted criminal in front of him completely disappeared. Such a huge change was too sudden, making him alert.
"Is he dead?" Qi Mengdie's face was full of confusion, and then she said casually.
"Dead?!!!" Lin Li was shocked when he heard this. When he took action just now, he had left some room, and with the opponent's second-level peak, he would soon break through the powerful cultivation level, so he would never be like this again. Simple death.
"Let me check." Qi Mengdie said, walked forward, squatted down, then stretched out his right hand and placed his fingers on Liu Yide's pulse.
"How is he doing?" Lin Li waited for half a minute, saw Qi Mengdie's face gradually becoming serious, and asked.
"call……"
Qi Mengdie stood up and breathed a sigh of relief, "I checked carefully and he is dead."
"How is this possible? I didn't try my best just now, I just wanted to save his life." Lin Li didn't expect that Liu Yide was really dead, and he couldn't help but have a puzzled expression on his face.
In dealing with some villains before, as long as he restrained his strength when attacking, no one was killed by him on the spot. Now there was an exception, which was extremely rare for Lin Li.
"Hey!" Qi Mengdie was shocked when she heard Lin Li say that he didn't use all his strength when he took action just now.
"In the battle just now, Lin Li didn't even use his full strength. How strong is he?"
Qi Mengdie was stunned due to shock, but Lin Li did not notice her changes, because at this time, his focus was entirely on Liu Yide, who was lying on the ground lifeless.
A minute later, Lin Li, who had been thinking for a while, suddenly said, "Qi Mengdie, don't you think this guy is a bit weak?"
After coming back to her senses, Qi Mengdie raised her hand to tidy up the messy hair on her forehead, and said helplessly, "He is so strong, but you still think he is a little weak!"
Lin Li glanced at Qi Mengdie, and then his eyes fell on the dead Liu Yide.
"The spiritual energy fluctuations emitted by this guy just now are very strong. It can be determined that half of his feet have entered the third level. Logically speaking, with such a level of cultivation, he should not be defeated by me so quickly."
"This... seems to be the truth." Qi Mengdie listened to what Lin Li said and carefully recalled the battle scene between the two of them just now. Although the fight between you and me was very intense, it ended too hastily.
"Back off." Lin Li suddenly shouted. Qi Mengdie, who was recalling, woke up when he heard the words, and then subconsciously took several steps back.
When Qi Mengdie stopped, he saw a very shocking scene.
I saw the body of the dead Liu Yide changing. Many gray spots appeared on his originally pale skin, which spread all over his body in a matter of ten seconds.
Lin Li had never encountered such a situation before, and various thoughts flashed through his mind.
"This guy can create those weird things. After he dies, won't he start to change himself?"
I thought that Liu Yide's body would be abnormal and he would turn into a monster like a mummy, but things turned out completely different from what he thought.
"He seems to have turned into stone." Qi Mengdie was silent for a long time before speaking to break the quiet atmosphere of the scene.
"Yeah." Lin Li responded, then stepped forward, raised his foot and kicked the petrified Liu Yide.
"Click."
The petrified Liu Yide was more fragile than imagined. Lin Li just kicked lightly with his toes, and many cracks appeared on the petrified Liu Yide's body, and his neck was broken.
"He really turned into stone." Qi Mengdie came to Lin Li's side at this time and said in surprise as he looked at Liu Yide who turned into a stone statue and then had his neck kicked off.
"Do you know what this is?" Lin Li is an outsider after all. In terms of knowledge, he is definitely not as knowledgeable as Qi Mengdie, a native aborigine.
Qi Mengdie, who usually likes to read some ancient books, thought carefully and actually had some ideas, "This seems to be a means of escaping. I'm not sure whether it is."
"A means of escaping? If it is true, then I have learned a lot today." Lin Li was not sure whether Liu Yide escaped. He was surprised by the result, but he didn't take it to heart. It was just a pity that he couldn't get the reward.
The government issued a wanted order and offered a reward for these gangsters. You can choose to send the whole person to the government for identification, or you can choose to take the head.
Now that Liu Yide has been petrified and sent to the government to verify his identity, the people in the yamen will only think that it is a stone statue and drive him away.
If things get worse, the policeman might think you are trying to cheat the bounty, arrest you directly, and throw you into jail for a few days.
"I didn't expect this wanted criminal to have such means." Qi Mengdie sighed. Although she was not sure whether the petrified Liu Yide had escaped, it did not prevent her from making such a judgment.
"As he said just now, if you can avoid being caught for so many years, you must have some back-up tactics." Lin Li agreed casually.
Then he looked at the opened treasure boxes. Speaking of things that could attract Lin Li's attention, these treasure boxes actually held more weight in Lin Li's heart.
Qi Mengdie noticed Lin Li's gaze, looked at the empty treasure boxes, thought for two or three seconds, and then spoke to comfort them.
"Let's continue to explore inside, maybe we can pick up some leaks."
Lin Li was a little uninterested, "Didn't that guy just say that? He had plundered everything in the ancient tomb and used it to exchange for materials. Continuing to explore is just a waste of time."
Qi Mengdie said with a smile, "Not to mention such a wanted criminal's lies, even if what he said is true, I don't believe he can consume all the funerary objects in the ancient tomb."
The disappointed Lin Li had originally planned to leave the ancient tomb, but after hearing what Qi Mengdie said, he rekindled his confidence in treasure hunting.
Of course, compared to the beginning, Lin Li actually cared less about the final harvest.
"What you said makes sense. Let's continue exploring the depths of this ancient tomb."
"Our main target next is where the guy is hiding."
"Um."
"let's go!"
Then the two people left the tomb and continued to explore deeper.
…………
Thousands of miles away, in a cemetery, someone was burning paper money.
After worshiping the ancestors, everyone left and the cemetery became quiet.
Today is a cloudy day, the sun is covered by clouds, and occasionally a gust of wind blows, causing the surrounding flowers, plants and trees to sway and make a rustling sound.
The cemetery, which originally seemed a bit gloomy, made people feel panicked against the backdrop of such weather.
Deep in the cemetery, there are many fallen tombstones. These graves are not taken care of, and no one knows the origin of these graves.
Suddenly, the earthbag behind a fallen tombstone trembled.
There was no earthquake, and the earthbags were shaking, which was really weird.
"Click."
The earth bag trembled more and more violently, and then a crack appeared in the middle.
If any ordinary person were to pass by this tomb now, they would definitely be frightened out of their wits by the scene in front of them.
"call……"
A coffin was exposed, and the sound of breathing came from the coffin.
Two or three minutes later, the coffin opened, and a pale hand stretched out, followed immediately by a bloodless face.
If Lin Li and Qi Mengdie were here, they would recognize the person sitting up in the coffin at a glance.
The notorious wanted criminal Liu Yide shook his aching head and tried hard to regain his consciousness.
After a while, a gust of wind blew by, and Liu Yide's long hair draped behind him was blown up. At this time, his somewhat confused eyes returned to clarity.
"Damn it."
"How could he be so strong?"
Memories emerged in his mind, and Liu Yide's bloodless face was distorted by anger.
Liu Yide in the ancient tomb is a clone, and his real body is placed in this cemetery.
The clone used all its strength, but no matter how strong it was, it could not be stronger than the main body. At most, it could only have 60% of the strength of the main body. This was why Lin Li felt that his opponent was a bit weak.
It costs a lot to create a clone, and if it is destroyed, it will backfire on the original body.
Now Liu Yide's clone was destroyed by Lin Li, and his strength was greatly reduced as a result.
Originally, after two or three years, we could break through to the early stage of the third stage, but now there is no chance.
Just recuperating from an injury would not be enough for six or seven years. Even if it was recuperated, there would be little hope of breaking through to a higher realm again.
"asshole."
"I must take revenge."
"Even if you hide to the ends of the earth, I will find you and quarter you into pieces."
Liu Yide, whose spiritual energy fluctuations were only at the middle level of the second level, was cursing continuously.
As time passed, his black hair began to turn pale and many wrinkles appeared on his face.
He was originally in his twenties, but after a while, he became very old.
"Cough cough cough..."
After a violent cough, Liu Yide raised his hand to cover his mouth. When he stopped coughing and moved his hand away, his hand was covered with blood.
"I have to quickly find a place with abundant spiritual energy to recuperate, otherwise my physical condition will get worse and worse."
Liu Yide, who had grown old, crawled out of the coffin and walked staggeringly towards the dangerous forest in the distance.
There is a city behind him. If a normal person is injured, he must go to the city to find a doctor to treat his injuries.
Because Liu Yide was a wanted criminal, he could only rely on himself to heal his injuries at this time.
Dare to go to the city to look for a doctor, to ensure that his identity is known, and then report it to the government.
…………
The battle caused a lot of commotion. When the fighting stopped, the entire ancient tomb returned to silence.
Lin Li and Qi Mengdie continued to explore the ancient tomb, originally thinking that they would encounter some strange creatures in other tombs.
However, no monsters were seen in the tombs the two of them encountered, which was somewhat different from what they thought.
"It's empty again." Lin Li opened the treasure boxes in front of him. Without exception, all the treasure boxes contained nothing valuable.
"Let's continue looking elsewhere." Qi Mengdie said to the disappointed Lin Li.
"Yes." Lin Li nodded, and then the two of them left the newly discovered tomb.
The sound of footsteps echoed in the tomb passage, and Lin Li and Qi Mengdie suddenly came to an open place.
"It's so spacious here." Qi Mengdie raised her hand and pointed the flashlight at the surroundings.
More than ten meters away, it was pitch black and nothing could be seen.
"Snapped."
Lin Li raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and fireballs were born out of thin air.
The rapidly forming fireball expanded rapidly, and then the surrounding darkness was dispersed by the light emitted by the fireball.
A building with a large area appeared in front of the two people. Qi Mengdie was very surprised, "There is actually a palace here!"
After continuously exploring several tombs with no results, Lin Li's patience was exhausted. Now that a palace suddenly appeared, his mood immediately improved, and he said happily.
"This palace is most likely that guy's lair."
Qi Mengdie agreed, "It should be so. Be careful when you go in. Maybe that guy is hiding inside, ambushing us in a corner, trying to sneak attack us."
Lin Li thought for two or three seconds. For safety reasons, he said to Qi Mengdie, "I will go in first to test and make sure there is no danger. Then come in..."
Qi Mengdie didn't think much and immediately agreed, "Okay, be careful."
Lin Li controlled the fireball to disperse the darkness in the palace.
The floor inside the palace is paved with blue bricks, with some vague patterns on them.
After Lin Li entered the palace, he looked around and his eyes were suddenly attracted by a bronze coffin in the distance.
"It's a pity that the coffin lid is open."
After walking forward for a while, Lin Li came to the bronze coffin. He lowered his head and looked inside. His originally unconcerned expression instantly changed and a smile appeared on his face.
Qi Mengdie stood at the door of the palace and waited. After a while, she heard a voice.
"You can come in."
Qi Mengdie walked into the palace and saw Lin Li standing in front of a bronze coffin, holding a shiny object in his hand.
"Spiritual stone?"
Lin Li smiled and said to Qi Mengdie who came to him, "There are many spiritual stones in this bronze coffin, which should be used by that guy for training."
Qi Mengdie said with a smile, "There really are some leftovers!"
"Fortunately, I listened to your suggestion and continued exploring, otherwise we would have missed these hundreds of spiritual stones..."
"When the tomb owner was buried, there must have been burial artifacts. Unfortunately, we have not found any burial artifacts so far."
"It should have been transferred by that guy in advance. It's good to have these gains now." Lin Li said with a smile.
"Huh?" Qi Mengdie suddenly discovered something and stared at the bronze coffin.
"What's wrong?" Lin Li asked.
Qi Mengdie put her hand into the bronze coffin, dug her fingers to the side, and easily pulled off a palm-sized bronze mirror embedded in the bronze coffin.
"Is there a small bronze mirror here?" Lin Li's attention was focused on the spirit stone just now and he didn't notice this thing.
"I thought it was a spiritual weapon! It turned out to be just a decoration." Qi Mengdie checked it and found that the simple bronze mirror was not a spiritual weapon, and then threw it on the ground.
