The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 659 - 225: The Terrifying Creatures Beneath the Grotto Heaven Gravity Zone (6k)_3

Chapter 659: Chapter 225: The Terrifying Creatures Beneath the Grotto Heaven Gravity Zone (6k)_3

[Spiritual Soil: This is a type of special soil possibly formed in spirit plant gardens developed by ancient cultivators or in environments rich with Spiritual Qi. It contains dense and pure Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.]

[Generally used to cultivate rare Divine Medicine, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort.]

Next, there were two lifelike images, which on the outside looked no different from ordinary soil.

However, they displayed pale golden and pale purple hues.

After looking, Zhou Qing couldn’t help but furrow his brows.

Where could he find a spirit plant garden developed by ancient cultivators?

Wait—

Soon, Zhou Qing suddenly thought of something.

"Maybe I should take a look!" Zhou Qing quickly took out the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace Token and activated it with a top-grade Spirit Stone.

Soon he arrived inside the Celestial Palace.

He didn’t see No. 6, but No. 4 and No. 5 were currently strategizing in their own restricted areas.

As soon as Zhou Qing entered, an unprecedented terrifying gravitational sensation crashed down on him, making him stagger and his body shake uncontrollably.

But this time, there were no wandering souls in the Divinity Transformation Realm, instead, the ground suddenly began to shake violently.

A sense of deathly threat, filled with ominous overtones, instantly locked onto him.

Zhou Qing’s face changed; how could he forget such an important thing.

The next moment, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, as if some peerless fierce creature was about to burst out from beneath.

Enduring the gravity, Zhou Qing immediately took out the Broken Sword, his entire being transforming into the second form of the Golden Roc True Body, fully prepared for battle.

"Roar!"

With an earth-shattering roar, a massive figure abruptly drilled out from the ground.

When he saw clearly what it was, Zhou Qing’s pupils suddenly shrank.

It was an unusual skeleton, looking very much like a Dragon Bone at first glance, yet clearly different.

Because it still had four stout leg bones supporting its massive body.

What was horrifying was that the skull of this skeleton was hollowed out, and inside that hollow, there sat a dry corpse cross-legged.

And the clothing on the dry corpse seemed somewhat familiar to Zhou Qing, but he couldn’t think too much because the entire corpse was presenting a terrifying dark green hue.

In the sunken eye sockets, two ghostly green flames flickered, staring fixedly at him.

A strong killing intent surged straight toward him; Zhou Qing wanted to escape, but after breaking through to Divinity Transformation, the gravity in the Gravity Zone was more terrifying than ever, slowing his movements.

Moreover, the speed of this bizarre skeleton was unbelievably fast, and before Zhou Qing could react, it had already come close.

A stout leg bone swung towards him, smashing into him harshly.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, Zhou Qing felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and was sent flying by the impact.

Even the tough Peng Armor was torn into two bloody gashes, and blood was gushing out from the wounds.

Zhou Qing was horrified; since cultivating the "Emperor’s Brilliance Scripture," this was the first time his defense had been broken.

Just as he struggled to get up enduring the excruciating pain, the skeleton let out a sharp whistle, a sound that seemed to pierce through the soul, making him blank out for a moment.

Inside his Sea of Consciousness, the four-colored flowers began to spin rapidly, and before he could regain clarity, the dry corpse inside the skeleton stretched out a skeletal hand and grabbed his head.

Zhou Qing couldn’t dodge it; he only felt a chilling, bone-piercing force hit him, followed by the sound of "crackling" bones breaking, and blood immediately blurred his vision.

Then, it was as if his head was exploded by the Corpse Wax Crow, and consciousness plunged into darkness.

When he opened his eyes again, he had transformed back into a red light spot, staring blankly at the barrier of the restricted area before him.

"Did I just die like that?" The awakened Zhou Qing was still in a daze.

How did it feel like he was beaten to death within seconds?

The remaining measures in Taiqing Sect’s Pocket World were this fierce?

No wonder the Supreme Elders didn’t dare to venture in lightly and only allowed the disciples to pass through the Gravity Zone and open the key before they dared to enter.

"As Master said, the thing under the Gravity Zone is not a living creature, but something akin to a puppet!" Zhou Qing murmured to himself.

This puppet’s strength definitely couldn’t be in the Spirit Severing Realm.

After all, from the founding of the Taiqing Sect until now, there had never been a Spirit Severing Realm cultivator, let alone making such a powerful puppet.

"But it surely must be stronger than the Supreme Elders, otherwise they wouldn’t be so fearful. Perhaps, it has strength comparable to County Governor Zhong Yao!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing’s eyes suddenly brightened.

The ancestors of the Taiqing Sect indeed had some extraordinary tricks.

However, Zhou Qing felt that the dry corpse inside the skeleton’s head was increasingly familiar.

"It’s the first Sect Leader!"

Soon, Zhou Qing suddenly remembered, his eyes widening in disbelief.

The core disciples of each peak in Taiqing Sect must go to the Ancestral Hall to pay respects to the portraits of past Sect Leaders.

And the clothing style and patterns on that dry corpse were exactly like those in the portrait of the first Sect Leader Guo Guiqi.

Realizing this, Zhou Qing was filled with respect.

It is said that the deceased rest in peace, but the first Sect Leader had consciously made himself a part of the puppet, choosing to become the final line of defense for the Taiqing Sect.

And he silently guarded the restricted area, witnessing the growth of generations of Taiqing Sect disciples in his own way.

Zhou Qing sighed deeply, his feelings a mix of emotions, and after looking at the barrier one more time, he reluctantly chose to exit.

Clearly, with his current cultivation, he could not pass through the Gravity Zone unless he went in physically next time and left some means there, then perhaps he might have a slim chance.
