When Ye Xiu and the other four successfully entered the tomb, Ye Xiu quickly went to search everywhere.
If the purpose of Ye Xiu coming to the tomb before was to find treasures and gain experience, then the current him was only there to find Leng Yue.
Although Leng Yue was powerful, the man beside her was also powerful, and if the latter were to suddenly launch a sneak attack, it would be difficult for Leng Yue to react.
Although the probability of this happening was not high, since Leng Yue and the other party were fellow sect disciples, the problem was that this was a tomb, even if he died here, he could still blame this on the tomb's trap and such.
Therefore, in order to be safe, Ye Xiu really wanted to find Leng Yue as soon as possible. As for that senior brother of Leng Yue, the one who had entered here was no longer a threat to Ye Xiu.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Take note. You must step on my footprints. One on each of you. Do not step on any places that no one else has stepped on." Ye Xiu replied.
With Ye Long helping him observe, he was not worried that he would encounter any danger, and even if he did, Ye Long would definitely notify him in advance.
"Oh!"
Hearing Ye Xiu's words, Yan Xiang and the other two nodded their heads lightly. Although they did not understand where Ye Xiu had his confidence from, he was still an elder, so the three of them naturally could not stop him.
As for whether or not they believed Ye Xiu's words, they believed them completely, because they knew that Ye Xiu would never disregard their own lives.
A genius cultivator with great potential had a high chance of becoming a peerless expert, so how could he so casually ignore his own life!
Just like that, with Ye Xiu's reminder, his speed did not decrease, but instead increased, and although Yan Xiang and the rest were shocked, they still stepped onto the footprints that Ye Xiu left behind, following closely behind.
"Ye Long, have you still not found any trace of Leng Yue?" After quickly advancing for around 10 minutes, Ye Xiu asked again.
"Master, you've already asked this eight times, if there's any news, I will definitely notify you immediately. But right now, don't be in a hurry to find someone, quickly find a place to hide, because there seems to be something heading towards you from the right." Ye Long reminded.
"Something?"
Ye Xiu frowned slightly. However, since Ye Long told them to find a place to hide, then it would naturally be correct.
Without thinking much, Ye Xiu looked around and then found a small cave that could hide four people not too far away.
"Come in!"
Arriving outside of the small cave, Ye Xiu took the initiative to hide inside, then hurriedly warned Yan Xiang and the other two.
Although there were four people in this cave, it was clear that it would be crowded if they hid in it together.
However, Ji Meng was a girl amongst the four of them, so it was a little awkward to squeeze together with three men.
However, since it was Ye Xiu's order, then she naturally would not dare to disobey, so after Ye Xiu and the other two entered, she found a gap and swiftly squeezed through.
"Everyone, stop arguing. Try your best to hide your presence."
When Ji Meng and the other two were squeezing around in the small cave, making sounds at the same time, Ye Xiu reminded them with a serious expression.
Because Ye Xiu's attitude was very serious, the three of them naturally did not dare to make any more noise, and at the same time, did their best to restrain their auras.
"Master, you're here!"
When Ji Meng and the others' voices disappeared for less than a minute, Ye Long's voice once again rang out in Ye Xiu's mind.
Just as Ye Long's voice fell, Ye Xiu saw a skinny figure slowly walking towards them.
"Ye Long, what is this, is it a human?" Because Ye Xiu had only seen a black figure slowly approaching, he could not tell if it was a person or something else.
"Master, it's a human, but he should be dead already!" Ye Long replied.
"Dead?"
Hearing Ye Long's words, Ye Xiu was shocked. How could this be a dead person? He was clearly still walking, and although his speed was not fast, he did not seem like a dead person.
"Master, he is indeed dead. As for why he can still walk, that might be because of some other reason. Anyway, all of you should stay here and carefully observe him." Ye Long replied.
Ye Long could sense the man's existence from the sound of his footsteps, but it could not sense the other's life force.
A person without any aura, was that still a living person?
"I got it!"
Ye Xiu said softly, after that his eyes continued staring at the figure, and as the black figure slowly walked towards him, his appearance slowly appeared in front of the four people.
"This ?"
Looking at this person's appearance, Ye Xiu and the other three nearly screamed out because this was indeed a person, but it was a person with an extremely ugly and terrifying appearance.
The flesh on his face seemed to have rotted, as if it could fall off at any moment.
"What's going on?"
Seeing that a perfectly fine person had turned into such a ghastly appearance, Ye Xiu and the other three were filled with shock.
"It's actually a disciple of Maple Leaf!"
When Ye Xiu observed this walking dead guy, suddenly, Ye Xiu recognized the clothes that were full of holes, it was Maple Leaf's attire.
"Could it be that the disciples of Maple Leaf have entered as well?" Ye Xiu exclaimed in his heart.
If that was the case, then something was wrong. One must know that Ye Xiu and the rest entered the tomb first, the disciples of Maple Leaf were definitely after Ye Xiu, but why did this person run in front of them instead?
"Master, the people who enter at any given time may be different from those in the tomb." Ye Long analyzed.
"Something is different!"
After hearing Ye Long's analysis, Ye Xiu frowned slightly. Of course, this analysis was very likely to be true.
If not, why would they be unable to catch up with Leng Yue and the others who had already gone into the tomb?
Furthermore, now that the truth was before their eyes, the Maple Leaf disciples who had entered later on had actually appeared in front of them. Just from this, it was clear that entering this tomb did not necessarily mean that they all appeared in the same place.
"Master, another thing is coming."
Just as Ye Xiu was thinking, Ye Long's voice sounded once again.
Hearing that, Ye Xiu looked behind the ugly fellow, and sure enough, there were a few figures that appeared behind him, and as they got closer, they looked extremely ugly.
"They are all disciples of Maple Leaf."
Through the clothes these people wore, Ye Xiu determined that these walking corpses all belonged to the Maple Leaf, and this way, he could even more sure that his previous analysis on Ye Long was correct.
so it was very normal for them to be together. It was just like how Ye Xiu and the other three were still together.
It was just that now, a person who was completely fine had turned into such an ugly appearance, he could walk even when he was dead. Ye Xiu really did not know what terrifying things they had experienced.
"Master, the carrion on on these guys is untouchable, so if you want to fight later, remember to use a Xuan Artifact to kill them. You must not use physical force." Ye Long reminded again.
Even without Ye Long's reminder, looking at the bubbling flesh on their faces, Ye Xiu felt goosebumps all over his body. This kind of meat, how could he dare to touch it with his own hands?
Of course, if they didn't fight, then it would naturally be avoided, because Ye Xiu didn't know how strong these guys would be after they became like this.
If they were unable to break through, then even if they fought, the only way to survive would be running away.
Therefore, as they got closer and closer to the four people, Ye Xiu and the others even held their breaths.
"Master, it seems like they relied on your breathing to determine their position. If that's the case, as long as you don't breathe, then they won't be able to discover you. After all, their eyes are already rotten." As Ye Xiu and the rest were holding their breaths, these walking corpses all stopped in their tracks, as if they did not know where to go.
"I'll try!"
Ye Xiu muttered, he then signalled to the other three, and squeezed out of the cave.
After Ye Xiu, Yan Xiang and the other two naturally left the cave.
It was impossible for a human to not breathe. Even an expert of the Profound Pill Realm could only hold their breath for around ten minutes.
Ye Xiu's words, because his cultivation was only at the Perfection of Profound Qi Stage, he could hold his breath for an even shorter period of time.
Thus, they could either escape before they suffocated or take advantage of this opportunity to kill them.
"Master, I suggest for you to get rid of them first. Otherwise, what if these guys come out to cause trouble when you encounter danger? When that happens, you will definitely be attacked from all sides and it will be extremely dangerous." Ye Long reminded.
"Alright, I'll give it a try!"
Ye Xiu acknowledged, and in the next second he immediately took out his Broken Sword.
"Heavenly Waterfall Sword Style!"
Without the slightest hesitation, when Ye Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, he slashed his heavy sword at the ugly fellow who was closest to him.
"Shua!"
With the help of the Profound Power, an astonishing sword qi directly flew out from the Broken Sword.
Because these rotten meat might be poisonous or something like that, Ye Xiu did not even want to let the Broken Sword touch the sword body, and that way, the Sword Qi would naturally be the best thing to have.
Boom!
When the heavy sword energy that Ye Xiu had unleashed heavily smashed onto the body of the ugly fellow at the very front, a shocking explosion sounded out.
In the next second, the rotten flesh on the ugly man's body was sent flying away by the powerful sword qi. However, he did not turn into nothingness, but instead, turned into a pile of white bones.
"Crack crack!"
