Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank - Chapter 812
812 The Thunder-like Heartbeat
The most important thing was to chant the incantation to open the eyes, nose, ears, and mouth of the ‘mummy’ and stuff food into its mouth. It was said that this way, the mummy could breathe, talk, and eat like a living person. It could be reborn again and become a powerful life form that could live forever.
According to the legends, the ancient Egypt dynasty believed that the mummies were not dead, but in a deep sleep, waiting for the day they would wake up and be resurrected.
After becoming Undead spirits, the mummies were even more bizarre. Not only did they have amazing defense power, but they also had strange magical powers abilities that made them very powerful in combat.
It was obvious that the eight mummies were the best among mummies.
!!
At this moment, the eight mummies were carrying a bronze coffin. It looked like a human coffin. The outline of a human figure was formed on the surface, and there was an ancient human face pattern on it. It was vivid and lifelike, and it looked a little creepy.
Boom!
The surrounding Undead Army knelt without hesitation upon seeing the bronze coffin, exuding a strong sense of respect.
“Greetings to the High Priest!”
The shouts from soul power echoed in the air.
Plop! Plop!
A strong heartbeat came from the bronze coffin. Every time it rose and fell, it sounded like a drum.
“An Undead has heartbeats?”
Li Xiang’s brows twitched, and his heart tightened slightly. This must not be a good thing.
According to the legends, the internal organs of mummies were all dug out. If it was not dug out and refined with a special method, the body would easily rot. Logically speaking, the High Priest had been turned into a mummy by the most vicious and brutal methods because of its felonies. Thus, its internal organs would also be dug out, or even processed with various vicious methods. There should not be a heart in the body anymore.
Without a heart and internal organs, the mummies would have no more flaws. They would become even more brutal and terrifying.
However, at this moment, he heard a heartbeat from the human-shaped bronze coffin. The sound of his heart beating was even more intense than the beating of a drum. One could imagine how terrifying it was.
It was said that the highest level of a mummy was to use the power of life and death to reform its internal organs when it was neither alive nor dead. This way, the regenerated internal organs would be unimaginably powerful, and they could kill gods and demons as soon as it was born. This was a kind of life that the six great divisions in the wheel of karma could not tolerate. Compared to the Zombies, it was comparable to the four major families of the Zombies.
“I wonder if the High Priest’s heart and organs weren’t removed, or if a new heart formed on its own. If that’s the case, how many organs has it formed?”
Li Xiang muttered to himself, and his mind moved as fast as lightning.
No matter what, it seemed that the High Priest would not be easy to deal with.
Just the Qi dynamics from the sound of its heartbeat alone could suppress mythical realm cultivators to the point that they almost suffocated.
This was only the sound of its heartbeat. It was easy to imagine that the High Priest’s strength must not only be in the mythical realm. Was it in the divine realm? Or even higher?
“What’s that sound? Why is my heart beating so fast?”
“Oh no! The HP in my body is in chaos. Even my genuine Qi is starting to go out of control. My HP is flowing in reverse. I might go into Qi deviation and be injured or dead!”
“This human-shaped bronze coffin is strange. It can cause HP to flow in reverse. Quick, use your mind to suppress the HP!”
The people and cultivators all cried out in alarm. They felt their HP flow in reverse, and intense pain exploded in their bodies.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
A large number of common civilians felt their HP flowing in reverse. Their eyes, ears, mouths, and noses began to bleed on the spot. They were bleeding in all seven holes! Those cultivators were also affected by the heartbeat. Their HP was tumbling, and their genuine Qi was surging, constantly going berserk in their bodies.
Just this point alone was enough to make countless cultivators lose their combat power.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A pitch-black ancient bell appeared above Li Xiang’s head. As the ancient bell vibrated, it let out a crisp sound. The sound waves contained great power, and they continued to spread, covering a large area and completely suppressing the strange heartbeat sound.
The Requiem Bell could shatter the soul and tear it apart. It could also calm the mind. At the sound of the bell, the huge impact from the beating heart was suppressed, and all the people and cultivators recovered immediately.
For Li Xiang, this level of heartbeat could not affect him even if he did not use the Requiem Bell. The HP in his body had been completely suppressed, and there was no possibility of it going berserk. The spirit in the sea of divinity was also suppressed by the Tower of Stars.
Whether it was HP or spirit, they were as steady as a mountain.
“How terrifying! I almost died just now!”
“What a terrifying heartbeat! My heart almost burst!”
“Did I bleed in all seven orifices? Is this the High Priest? It’s said that it was only below the Pharaoh in terms of strength. It seems that it is indeed extraordinarily powerful.”
“It’s over. Who can resist such a terrifying expert? Just the sound of its heartbeat is enough to kill us on the spot and make our hearts burst. Just how strong is it? Isn’t it said that the heavenly Dao had already placed a seal, and it’s impossible for those powerhouses to appear? Why does such a terrifying expert appear at this time?”
The people woke up from the pain and felt an invisible fear spreading in their hearts.
It didn’t even show its face, but it had already sent countless people half a foot into the gate of hell. This kind of feeling was hard to accept.
“Hand over the General Valley and you can live as my servants!”
A hoarse voice came from the human-shaped bronze coffin.
It was not a normal voice, but a voice made with soul power. There was no language barrier. Even ordinary people could understand the meaning contained in the voice.
For cultivators, language was never an obstacle. The spirit was the foundation, and the soul was the one and only.
There was an unquestionable attitude in its voice. Its words had completely decided the fate of the oasis, the ownership of the General Valley, and the future of countless Human civilians.
Handing over the General Valley could give the Human civilians a chance to live as servants. This was the sympathy from the High Priest.
“Hmph!”
Xue Manshan snorted coldly and stood in front of General Valley. He looked at the bronze coffin and said, “High Priest, do you think you are a God? Do you think your word could decide the life and death of everyone, so no one dared to disobey? You’re too naive if you think you can take the General Valley away with just one sentence. Do you think that you can be unscrupulous and get everything? I… will never agree to it!”
His tone was filled with determination.
“Do you want me, Hua Mulan, to be a slave and a servant, to submit to a group of Undead? That’s impossible! I’d rather die standing than live kneeling!” Hua Mulan said decisively, exuding a heroic spirit.
“We don’t have the habit of being slaves. If you want the General Valley, we’ll have to see if you have the strength.” Yue Guan laughed coldly, also showing his stand.
