Fallen Devil: The Resurrection of the God of Death

The Core of the Ancient Tomb

Lin Xuan then glanced back and tried to stand up. Watching Jin Xie running towards him as if there was a worry in his eyes.

“Stupid, stupid, you get killed. Why are boys so careless again?”

“That's why boys have a short lifespan. Never mind, I want to get something I want.” Lin Xuan walked heavily towards the gate.

“You, you really don't know yourself. You should be able to recover yourself, you idiot!” Shouted Jin Xie who was trying to prevent Lin Xuan.

But Lin Xuan didn't care at all. He had calmed down to touch the gate guarded by the four statues earlier.

He pushed and drained the little qi left in him. And it gave a reaction to the gate. All the patterns lit up, forming a painting that could not be interpreted. But there was a pentagon-shaped point connecting each other, which when the last corner was connected, the gate opened after Lin Xuan pushed it.

Without a second thought, Lin Xuan walked into the gate.

Lin Xuan's body fully entered, but at that very instant the gate closed and produced a bang that was so loud. Even Lin Xuan was shocked when he heard a bang right behind him himself.

In front of him was an altar, surrounded by several statues that Lin Xuan felt had no life at all. All of the statues were on various sides facing towards the altar, except for the road towards the altar that had a staircase in front of Lin Xuan there was absolutely no statue.

Around the altar there are several rooms that seem to surround this place. The room opened as if to be a supporter at the core of this tomb. There are five rooms, with five statues facing the altar which must be different contents.

Lin Xuan didn't want to go up on the altar first. He wanted to go into the first room. Which was indeed very close to him at the moment except for the fifth room.

Inside the first room, this made Lin Xuan half shocked. In this room is like a jade warehouse. All the radiant jade emitted its main color. Lin Xuan also sensed that all of these jades were emitting swirling qi.

He was very confident that cultivating here would provide such a breakthrough. But it also takes so long. So that he did not take a risk, to cultivate here.

All that was done was to take out this jade in moderation. At least it was enough to make Lin Xuan feel a breakthrough.

Then, he headed for the next room. Inside it was like a sword storehouse, all the swords as if gathered in this place in various forms.

“What are you doing?”

The remark just now, made Lin Xuan look back with a slight sense of shock. Moreover, he had not previously sensed the existence of an aura or the presence of an entity. So he greatly increased his alertness.

But he only saw a cat moving towards him. But I don't think this is an ordinary cat. It was at least a spiritual beast that Lin Xuan found it hard to see the tiers of the cat.

“I'm sorry, but I ..”

“No I mean, if you stare at the fourth of these five rooms it will only be a waste to me. Go up to the altar.”

“You chosen people, successfully breaking through here is not luck, but the choice of a destiny. Someone of the two realms, Nirvana and Mao, trusts you even though his existence has perished. It's a good destiny line.”

He did not understand what the cat was saying. But he digests a little that he is a chosen one. Unfortunately, he thought on what basis he became the chosen one. Strong people are not just themselves. Mei Lin if strong, but why isn't she?

“I'm a chosen person? But on what basis?”

The cat looked at Lin Xuan with great wisdom. “You're the chosen one because you have incredible potential. You have a power that has not been fully revealed.

However, you must understand that strength is not always based solely on the physical. It comes from the power within you. The power to fight fear, to keep your principles, to choose good over evil. You were chosen to take on the upcoming big task.”

Lin Xuan was still confused by the cat's reply. However, there was something that felt right in his heart. He felt like there was an undisclosed potential within him, and he had to explore it more deeply. He also felt like there was a huge task waiting for him in the future.

On top of the altar, Lin Xuan could see a statue lying down. But this is more like a coffin. Moreover, within it was a death energy so powerful, that it made Lin Xuan a little claustrophobic.

“Bukalah.”

According to what the cat said, he carefully opened the coffin. His mind was already muddled that inside there must be a preserved body. But it turned out to be a big mistake.

No body, no skull. There was only a storage ring, and the eye-shaped stone was black and red, more precisely it was a pendant. Not only both, but also a sword.

A sword with thin black edges, but its main color is red, so it fits more like a burning ember. On the hilt of the sword was also an engraving, and a symbol that Lin Xuan couldn't comprehend. But what was certain was that Lin Xuan thought that the previous sword owner liked an art.

“It was the sword of the Century of Death. An old metal is preheated in hell for a hundred years, then forged using dead stars. Try, lift.”

Lin Xuan held the sword handle carefully. And raise it slowly and carefully as well. Although it looks heavy, but who thinks that the weight is very effective to hold.

But right then and there, what made Lin Xuan shocked was an orange glow coming out from the sword. The light was like tying Lin Xuan's hands and body as if he didn't want to let go. He became confused and asked the cat next to him.

“A-what happened?”

“Don't worry, didn't I tell you you were the one of choice? The sword likes you. He thinks you are the new master. As if it were part of your soul.” Obviously the cat. "Usually someone has to drip blood on the sword of legend, but you seem to have a good bond before."

“If you want, you can put on the body on any part. It will form a tattoo that you can pull at any time.”

Curious, Lin Xuan thought of putting this century-old sword of death on his left arm. Because it is very effective and can be withdrawn at any time. And sure enough, the sword disappeared and Lin Xuan's arm contained a tattoo with such a cool sword shape.

“There is a storage ring and a divine eye pendant. It's all yours.”
