Chapter 123 The Super-Rank Mage Who Arrived Two Years Before Me
"That's really cool, to be able to make a magic spell look like that." Mu Bai remarked with some admiration.
She moved a little further away to avoid being affected.
Although the ancestral magic was intimidating, the ghost was not afraid. After reconciliation became hopeless, the black aura around him suddenly surged, trying to break free of its restraints, but light magic was a devastating blow to dark creatures.
No matter what kind of dark creature it is, it has to be half a head shorter in front of the light element, not to mention this is just a commander-level ghost, while the ancestor is said to be a super-level mage of the light element.
For a high-level mage to defeat a commander-level demon is like a dimensional reduction attack.
No matter how powerful this commander-level demon was, it was useless. The light of the ancestral legend suppressed it completely, giving it no chance to resist. A holy judgment cleaved the undead into ashes.
After defeating the undead, Zu Chuan Chuan removed the magic from his body, walked to Mu Bai's side, and said, "Kid, don't run around if you don't have the strength. You'll easily break out of your body."
"I understand," Mu Bai replied, feeling a pang of sadness. This ghost had saved him, and then was killed for doing so.
This……
Ugh, this is really a bitter pill to swallow.
Mu Bai walked to the edge of the ancient tomb, preparing to go inside.
"Hey kid, what's wrong with you? I just told you to watch your step and not run around, and you're already running away again? What kind of place is this? Even super-level mages can go missing here, so a lowly mage like you is even less likely to survive. Get out of here right now, don't come here." Zu Chuan walked over and separated Mu Bai.
He didn't want to watch these young people die; entering the ancient tomb was no different from death, and they were likely to die anyway.
If you can persuade them, you should try to do so.
"Yes, young man, what Brother Legend said is right. You should go back. This place belongs to the old mage, so these young people shouldn't take the risk."
"That makes sense. Young man, if you want treasures, you can look further away from the ancient capital. There are a lot of undead crystals here, and most of the ancient tombs are also filled with undead crystals. If you want them, you can kill some demons tonight."
……
After Zu Chuan spoke, the others followed suit.
They themselves may not have intended to persuade anyone, but since it's an old saying, some people started saying it out of flattery, some out of a desire to fit in, and so on.
"Do you want to go in?" Mu Bai asked Zu Chuan.
"I have that idea, but there's no rush. There's still some time before evening, so I'll wait until then to see what happens," Zu Chuan said.
His original intention was to stay here for a while to make it safer for people outside the ancient tomb.
But in reality, unless someone does something reckless, the dead can't possibly escape; they just lie there. The legend is that the dead are worried that someone might have malicious intentions.
"Oh, then you wait here, I'll go in first." Mu Bai said, then walked around Zu Chuanshuo and went straight in.
Zu Chuan Chuan only realized Mu Bai had actually gone in after Mu Bai went inside. He looked at the others and only realized Mu Bai had really gone in when they nodded.
"Who are they?" Zu Chuan muttered, leaning against the ancient tomb with his eyes closed to rest. Others entered one after another, but more remained behind.
Some people just came to join in the fun, some wanted to go in but were scared, and others are a group of people who come here every day to talk nonsense.
After the ancient tomb was opened, there would always be a group of people chatting here during the day. Mainly because it was daytime, there was no threat of undead, and they were all mages who had dealt with undead for a long time, so they were not afraid of so-called undead at all during the day.
Some of them dare to sleep here.
People were already taking their afternoon naps near the ancient tomb. There were many monks here, so they didn't have to worry about safety. The smell was acceptable to them, not unbearable.
Inside the ancient tomb, Mu Bai entered but encountered nothing, and immediately fell into a deep pit.
When he became frightened, there was no light around him, and he could only rely on his senses to walk.
However, Mu Bai wasn't too worried, mainly because Mu Qianjin was here, and it was Jiuyou Hou who sent them.
The danger shouldn't be too great...
It's not the kind of situation where a monarch-level demon bumps into your face.
"Human, you've come at the right time. Fight for me!" A voice suddenly rang out from the sky, deafening, as if someone were speaking through a megaphone right next to your ear.
"Who are you?" Mu Bai asked after a moment of silence.
This is an ancient tomb, so where is this creature?
Where did all those people who came in go?
I don't understand. At least from what I've come this far, this place doesn't look like an ancient tomb at all. There are other stories online about people entering ancient tombs, even the pyramids in Egypt, and how they were all managed to be preserved.
But this...
Mu Bai really couldn't understand it; his mind was a complete mess.
"Why do you care so much? Just fight for me." the voice continued.
"What about the reward?" Getting him to fight must be a duel, there must be something to wager, and this fighter will definitely get a lot of things in return.
"Your reward is your life; if you win, your life is yours."
Mu Bai's expression was a little strange. This voice was really annoying, but there was nothing he could do. It was just a minor mid-level mage. What could he say? He had to do whatever the other person wanted and obey.
"Alright, I agree. Who's going to fight? It's pitch black right now, I can't see anything. You're not going to tell me we're going to duel here, are you?" Mu Bai shouted.
The voice in the sky was silent for a moment, then said, "Of course not. Come out. Someone will introduce you to your opponent. You need to do everything you can to win the match. Note that from your human perspective, both you and your opponent are mid-level mages."
Mu Bai's gaze sharpened. This voice was indeed that of a demon, but there were very few demons who could speak human language.
Most powerful demons possess intelligence, but they don't allow them to learn human language because there's no need for it. It's rather rare for this demon to be able to speak human language.
However, this is an ancient capital, perhaps the place of some dynasty, where something lives.
As Mu Bai pondered this, a door suddenly appeared before him. The light outside the door was just as bright as when he came in—the radiance of the sun during the day. This was an ancient tomb; the sun could not be found here, but this kind of light shone through.
Mu Bai didn't hesitate and walked straight towards that direction. He had already agreed to the mysterious voice's demand for combat, so he wouldn't encounter any danger.
Mu Bai walked in, and the stark contrast made him involuntarily close his eyes. It took him a long time to try opening them again.
"Hello, young man, I'm Zu Chuanshuo, I've been here for two years." Mu Bai had just opened his eyes when he saw a somewhat familiar middle-parted man.
The high-level mage who was outside before, but... he's been here for two years?
Are you kidding me!
