Chapter 656: Rule, Block! (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Although many treasures were not very useful to Xiao Shi, these items could be used to nurture martial artists in his domain.

“Hmm?” Xiao Shi suddenly saw something. On a black table in the treasure vault, there was a completely black wooden box. The wooden box was 20 centimeters long, 10 centimeters wide, and 10 centimeters tall. The box was deep and dark, as if it could devour light. Even under the candlelight, it did not reflect any light.

Other than that, there was nothing special about this wooden box.

Xiao Shi sized up this wooden box curiously and was puzzled. All the treasures he saw in this treasure vault would show information about the treasures in his vision. He could not see any information on this wooden box!

Xiao Shi had never encountered such a situation before. He instantly realized that this wooden box in front of him was not simple. He stared at the wooden box seriously. However, be it observing with the naked eye or scanning with his spiritual sense, he could not see any clues from this wooden box.

“What the h.e.l.l is this?” Xiao Shi frowned slightly. He tried to pick up the wooden box and looked around, but he still could not see any problems.

After some thought, Xiao Shi felt that the problem might be from inside the box. He tried to open the box.

With a soft click, he successfully opened the box. A black smoke immediately rushed out of the box at a speed that Xiao Shi could not react to. It directly fused into his glabella.

Bang! Bang!

Xiao Shi suddenly heard two m.u.f.fled bangs.

“Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang…”

The drum-like sound kept sounding, becoming more and more intense. The heart in his chest was like an overloaded motor. While beating crazily, it also produced a tearing pain.

Not only that, his skin was also dyed pitch-black, and black blood vessels protruded. His pupils and the whites of his eyes also turned pitch-black. The area between his glabella, revealing a black face!

All of this happened extremely suddenly. Before this, Xiao Shi did not sense any signs. He did not sense any abnormality. In fact, at this moment, he did not receive any warnings of danger. However, he realized that his body was no longer under his control. Black threads spread out in his body like blood vessels and filled his entire body. It made him lose control of his body.

What was even more terrifying was the emperor’s armor in his body. At this moment, they all trembled. Under the constant trembling, they seemed to have been summoned and appeared from Xiao Shi’s body.

His face was covered in a black Martial Emperor’s Mask. He had a thick Martial Emperor’s Pauldron on his shoulders and a Martial Emperor’s Belt wrapped around his waist. A Martial Emperor’s Combat Boots appeared under his feet, and a golden Martial Emperor’s Cape extended from his back.

What terrified Xiao Shi the most was that after the emperor armor on his body appeared, the Martial Emperor’s Belt actually began to form an Emperor’s Soul!!

Now that he had lost control of his body, there was no way to stop it. He could only watch helplessly as the Martial Emperor’s figure transformed from the Martial Emperor’s Belt. Moreover, the moment the Martial Emperor’s figure formed, the other Emperor’s armor on his body trembled and responded to the Emperor’s armor on his Emperor’s Soul, causing the entire Emperor’s Soul to increase greatly from its original foundation.

Its aura was even stronger. The illusory feeling weakened. Its entire body was much more corporeal than before. Not only that, the black face on Xiao Shi’s glabella rushed out forcefully at this moment and fused into the Emperor’s Soul under the impact.

Boom!!

The entire Emperor’s Soul shook violently. A terrifying aura began to awaken from the Emperor’s Soul. If the Emperor’s Soul formed by his Martial Emperor’s Belt did not have much intelligence and was still in a deep sleep, then the Emperor’s Soul right now seemed to have gained consciousness and was quickly waking up from its slumber.

His tightly shut eyes slowly opened a small crack. However, what dissipated from this crack was no longer the golden light from before, but a deep black. A strong sense of greed erupted from the Emperor’s Soul. It was like a hungry ferocious beast that had been staring at delicious prey!

“He’s trying to swallow me!” Xiao Shi’s mind was in turmoil. But even at this moment, there was still no danger in his heart. He did not receive any warning. Something was very wrong!

After all, martial artists could sense danger. Especially for martial artists with higher cultivation realms, they were more sensitive to danger. Before that, Xiao Shi had always been very accurate in sensing danger. Yet he did not feel any sense of danger. Even if he was already facing a life and death situation, he did not sense any danger.

This was clearly abnormal!

Logically speaking, with the danger level of this box, when he touched it, he should have a strong sense of danger. It was impossible for him to not sense anything. The reason why he dared to open the box was because he did not sense any danger from it. Otherwise, with his cautiousness, he would definitely not open it easily.

“Could it be because… it’s blocked?” Xiao Shi was shocked. He suddenly recalled the mysterious and powerful power he had seen in these ancient books.

To be precise, this was a rule! Under the shielding rule, his sense of danger would be blocked, preventing him from sensing any danger. This was probably the main reason why he could not obtain any information from the box when he saw it. Because the box itself was blocked.

Not only was he unable to sense danger from the box, but he was also unable to see the relevant information of the box.

As this was the first time such a rule had been encountered, Xiao Shi was caught off guard. Furthermore, he did not expect such a danger to exist in this treasure vault. At this moment, his body could not move at all.

When he first formed the Emperor’s Soul, he had already felt how insignificant he was in front of it. Especially now that the Emperor’s Soul had been strengthened to a greater extent, this was even more not something he could resist.

Xiao Shi’s soul began to feel intense pain. His entire soul was instantly pulled out of his body. This was even worse than the first time the Emperor’s Soul opened its eyes. There was no need to wait for the Emperor’s Soul to completely open its eyes when his soul had already flown towards the Emperor’s Soul. It was about to be devoured by the Emperor’s Soul.

It was a critical moment.

Hiss…

Ripples appeared on Xiao Shi’s chest. A faint rustling sound slowly spread from his body. A black coffin flew out of Xiao Shi’s body. A m.u.f.fled sound came from the coffin.

It was the sound of the coffin lid sliding down.

Swoosh!

Following the crack revealed by the coffin lid, a black shadow flew out of the coffin as fast as lightning.

It was an arm!

At an astonishing speed, just as Xiao Shi’s soul was about to be sucked in front of the Emperor’s Soul, it grabbed his soul and quickly pulled it back, successfully pulling his soul back. However, the appearance of this arm caused an extremely intense emotional fluctuation in the Emperor’s Soul, as if it had brought a huge stimulation to it.

As a result, the Emperor’s Soul’s eyelids trembled violently, and his originally expressionless face actually became ferocious. Even the speed at which he opened his eyes increased. The Emperor’s Soul could not help but raise his hand. He grabbed at the arm that stretched out from the coffin.

The arm that stretched out from the coffin could only let go of Xiao Shi’s soul and meet the attack.

Pfft!

There was an explosion. The arm that stretched out from the coffin suddenly exploded into a ball of blood mist, and the two fingers on his hand exploded. He was also blasted back. It was completely unable to withstand the attack of the Emperor’s Soul.

However, on the way back, the arm from the coffin grabbed Xiao Shi’s soul and successfully brought it back to his body. The arm that extended from the coffin retracted back into the coffin.

The coffin lid closed again. It fused into Xiao Shi’s body..
