A Top Scholar in Everything-Chapter 882 - 868: Bronze Ancient Coffin

It's not that Baiyu and the others didn't want to go in, but it was too dangerous inside. After discovering the burial site, two teachers started to attempt to burn the corpses cleanly. However, just as they were about to set the fire, something unexpected happened.

Not only were the corpses unable to catch fire.

More importantly, the surrounding weeds grew wildly, as if they had lost their minds, and attacked everyone, even surpassing the range of the Ancient Bronze Hall. Reluctantly, the group could only retreat first from the Blessed Land. After all, at this level of battle, it would be very likely for this group of students to enter and die without a burial place.

"Open the door, leave the rest to me to handle."

Igarashi Chitome spoke sparingly, her face cold, tightly gripping her black Samurai Sword, her expression serious.

The school immediately cooperated with her.

In the Blessed Land, it wasn't just this grassy area that was bizarre. In the depths of the Blessed Land, there were even stranger places. With attendants taking action, they had the confidence to explore the depths of the Blessed Land. Otherwise, with just these teachers, they truly wouldn't dare venture in casually.

After all, these people had never entered the Blessed Land and had no experience, not knowing it would be so dangerous inside. Previously, they eagerly pushed forward, wanting to break through the Blessed Land completely, but ended up losing several experts.

Igarashi Chitome, wearing wooden clogs, passed through the Bronze Hall and arrived at the grassy field.

The crowd followed behind her.

In the Blessed Land, due to the suppression of the Rules, one could only exert power below that of a Grandmaster. Everyone was curious about how she would handle it.

"Such a strong scent of death. At least tens of thousands are buried here, a mass grave. These weeds grew by consuming the nutrients from the corpses, coupled with the rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the Blessed Land, hence they became Cannibal Monster Grass.

Once these creatures taste human flesh, they can't stop."

Amy, standing by the side, said with a serious expression.

She was responsible for overseeing the holy Purple Crystal School during this special period, guarding the Bronze Hall to prevent any accidents.

So she followed in as well.

But from her demeanor, she seemed unwilling to take action, not moving forward proactively, just standing within the range of the Bronze Hall like everyone else. Only Igarashi Chitome stepped out of the Bronze Hall and entered the grassy field.

In an instant.

The weeds, already provoked, swarmed from all directions, each growing wildly, like sharp arrows, densely shooting at her, wanting to tear her apart.

"Black Blade·Breaking Evil!"

Igarashi Chitome slightly bent down, her left hand gripping the scabbard, her right hand holding the hilt, and with a swift motion, drew her blade. At that moment, countless sword lights rose around Igarashi Chitome like flower buds, dazzling and brilliant, as if cutting through the air.

The burst of sword light exploded.

All the weeds near Igarashi Chitome were instantly cut into powder, without knowing how many traces of Sword Qi they suffered simultaneously. With her at the center, all the weeds within a hundred-meter radius were instantly shredded and exploded into powder.

The lush grassland turned instantly into a barren desert.

After being shattered by this strike.

The weeds seemed to become subdued, no longer attacking. Perhaps they understood that such suicidal assaults were just sending themselves to death.

Igarashi Chitome didn't continue to attack the weeds.

The real threat here was not the weeds, but something else.

She walked into the pit of corpses, frowning, and then slashed again, cutting a long path in the pit. Looking down the path, they found at the end of the tunnel, there lay a solemn, heavy Bronze Ancient Coffin.

The surface of this ancient coffin was covered in patina, indicating it had weathered many years.

Igarashi Chitome discovered that the concentration point of the corpse's Qi was on this Bronze Ancient Coffin. The surrounding mass grave's corpses all gathered their death Qi, nourishing this coffin, essentially using ten thousand corpses to nourish this single entity.

The weeds growing around were merely benefiting from the aura of this Bronze Ancient Coffin.

Seeing the Bronze Ancient Coffin, everyone had a moment of daze, as if they were gazing at a grand mausoleum, luxurious in every way. The person lying inside this Bronze Ancient Coffin might be the master of that grand tomb.

With a furrowed brow, Igarashi Chitome fully drew her Samurai Sword.

In an instant.

The sword's aura was chilling, wailing with ghostly cries, indicating the countless souls it had perhaps slain to amass such a presence.

She struck towards the Bronze Ancient Coffin with her sword.

The unstoppable sword light reappeared, colliding violently with the coffin. The crowd only felt a terrifying explosion arise before their eyes. Instantly, their vision was filled with a blinding white light, and their ears were engulfed in the roar of the explosion.

They couldn't see a thing; they couldn't hear a thing.

The crowd had no idea what had happened, only hearing Amy's anxious shout amidst the blinding light: "Don't let it escape, this thing needs to be dealt with in one go."

After a few minutes, as the light gradually faded.

The previously lush grassland had turned into a desert plain, with no weeds left, akin to the aftermath of a forest fire. Meanwhile, the mass grave, once filled with corpses, had all been reduced to ashes and disappeared.

A massive pit remained where the Bronze Ancient Coffin had been, but it was empty inside.

Igarashi maintained a cold expression, while Amy seemed frustrated, clutching her flat chest.

"Lord Igarashi, is it resolved?"

At this time, a school leader inquired.

Igarashi Chitome shook her head: "No, the thing within this Bronze Ancient Coffin, after years of accumulation, has taken a distinct form. I couldn't contain it, and it escaped in madness, but in order to flee, it had to destroy the Bronze Ancient Coffin, so it can't cause trouble in the short term."

The crowd was astonished.

Even with two attendants striking simultaneously, they still allowed the thing inside the Bronze Ancient Coffin to escape. Such a tale was terrifying enough to shock the masses. Everyone wondered what exactly lay within that Bronze Ancient Coffin.

But Amy and Die Mei remained silent, and it wasn't appropriate for the others to inquire.

"This grassland is now safe. Amy and I have eliminated the danger. Next, build a camp here and let subsequent students begin their cultivation. If anyone wishes to venture into the depths of the Blessed Land, do not stop them."

Igarashi Chitome instructed.

At holy Purple Crystal School, the student casualty rate was always high. The school's philosophy emphasizes student self-growth, meaning it wouldn't overly intervene whether you sought death or whatever, as long as you had the strength to back yourself.

Previously, school leaders were reluctant to see too many student casualties, especially among these special students. But Igarashi and her team had no such concerns.
