Chapter 228 The Girl in the Coffin
There was only a crisp sound, and the Demon God's Blood Sword hit the skeleton firmly, but it only caused a red ripple and did not cause any substantial damage to the skeleton.
Zhao Mu was startled and immediately used the Phantom Step to step back and put some distance between himself and the skeleton.
However, the expected counterattack did not come.
The skull didn't react at all after being hit by Zhao Mu's sword. It just stared at Zhao Mu dimly, with dark green ghostly fire flickering in its eye sockets.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was weird.
Zhao Mu did not dare to act rashly, but just checked with the Supreme Divine Eyes.
"Immortal Skeleton: The skeleton of a deceased True Immortal. Although dead for many years, the immortal spirit remains. It has a certain degree of self-awareness, but is not aggressive."
The skeleton of a true immortal?
That is the true immortal realm beyond the realm of tribulation.
Why is there an immortal skeleton in this Starfire Immortal Boat?
The captain of this Starfire Immortal Boat is only at the stage of transcending tribulation.
It seems that there must be a big secret hidden in this big ship.
Zhao Mu approached the white skeleton cautiously.
Seeing that the other party did not react, Zhao Mu became bolder. He looked around the skeleton and memorized all the runes that appeared on its bones in his mind.
Although he didn't know what this rune was, Zhao Mu felt that it should be of extremely high value.
Zhao Mu felt that just memorizing it once was not enough.
He simply took out the recording stone again and recorded the skull rune from all angles, saving it for future research.
Just then, the skeleton suddenly moved.
It clattered towards the interior of the cabin.
After taking two steps, he looked back at Zhao Mu.
"Is it leading the way?"
Zhao Mu was curious. Although he felt there might be danger, he couldn't help but follow the skeleton.
After going deep into the cabin, Zhao Mu found a large number of corpses scattered inside.
There are hundreds and thousands of them.
As the water flow was disturbed, the corpses floated up and moved around.
The scene was horrifying.
Zhao Mu was a man of great skill and courage. He followed the True Immortal's bones and kept moving among the corpses without frowning.
During the journey, he observed briefly and found that these corpses were all crew members of the Starfire Immortal Boat, cultivators belonging to the Immortal Alliance.
Every corpse here had strong cultivation when they were alive, and Yuanying masters can be seen everywhere.
The lowest level is the Golden Core Stage.
After passing the main cabin, the True Immortal Bai Gu brought Zhao Mu to the cabin on the next level.
It's a bit more normal here, with no corpses floating around.
There were a lot of empty boxes piled up around.
Some residues could be vaguely seen in the box, which seemed to be the remains of rotten medicinal herbs.
pat.
The True Immortal Bai Gu pushed open a door.
Zhao Mu swam in after him.
The space inside the door seemed to be isolated by a formation, and the sea water was squeezed out.
Zhao Mu landed on the ground with his feet and illuminated the place with flames.
There was a glittering golden coffin placed in the center of the room. There were many talismans pasted on the coffin. It had not decayed after years and still emitted a dim spiritual light.
The True Immortal Bai Gu glanced at Zhao Mu and pointed at the golden coffin, as if hinting at something.
"You want me to open this coffin?"
The True Immortal Bai Gu nodded.
Zhao Mu frowned slightly.
This coffin has so many seals on it, I always feel like there must be something ominous inside.
However, the True Immortal White Bones did not seem to have any malicious intent.
Do you want to open it?
Give it a try. Anyway, he can now shrink the distance to an inch. If there is real danger, the worst that can happen is that he can escape in time.
Zhao Mu immediately flew forward, tore off all the talismans on the golden coffin, and pushed open the coffin lid with force.
In an instant, a dazzling ray of light burst out.
Zhao Mu looked carefully and was shocked to find that there was a girl in a pink dress lying in the golden coffin!
The girl looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a face as rosy as a peach, rosy and fair skin, and a fairy-like aura surrounding her body.
In an instant, the entire room seemed to be filled with rich spiritual energy.
Zhao Mu couldn't help but take a few greedy breaths.
Then Zhao Mu looked at the girl carefully.
"He Yuwei: 16 years old, late Nascent Soul stage, innate Hongmeng immortal body."
Sixteen years old in the late Nascent Soul stage?
This girl’s talent is a bit terrifying. Could she be the descendant of a top-level immortal cultivator?
At this moment, the True Immortal's bones beside him suddenly burst out with a dazzling light.
In an instant, the bones disappeared, leaving only a white hairpin that fell on the girl's hair.
What do you mean?
When Zhao Mu was at a loss, he heard a lazy exhalation.
The next second, the girl in the golden coffin stretched and sat up.
"So comfortable, I slept so well."
Uh… Although Zhao Mu guessed that the girl should not be dead, you are living too casually.
You are sleeping in this coffin.
The girl slowly opened her eyes and her gaze fell on Zhao Mu.
Their eyes met, and the girl looked a little confused.
Just as Zhao Mu was about to speak, he heard the girl ask with a puzzled look on her face, "Who are you? And who am I? Why can't I remember anything?"
Amnesia?
This development is too cliché.
Zhao Mu was about to speak when a system prompt suddenly popped up.
"Ding, issuing a wife-marrying mission. Marry He Yuwei. Reward: a random Heaven-level Immortal Technique and a random Immortal Weapon."
I am super.
Are there also immortal weapons in the heavenly magic?
This reward is quite generous.
The system is determined to make Zhao Mu trick this amnesiac girl back home.
Faced with Tongzi's good intentions, how could Zhao Mu refuse?
"Yuwei, don't you recognize me? I'm your husband, Zhao Mu."
"Husband?"
He Yuwei stared at Zhao Mu in a daze.
"When did I get married? How come I didn't know?"
Only then did He Yuwei realize that she was actually lying in a coffin. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she jumped out quickly.
"me……"
She seemed to be trying to remember something.
But the next second, he felt a splitting headache and squatted down with his hands covering his head.
Zhao Mu quickly stepped forward to support her and said, "You're injured. Don't think too much. I'll take you home first."
He Yuwei didn't dare to think any more. She looked at Zhao Mu curiously: "Are you really my husband? Why don't I have any impression of you at all?"
"You don't even remember who you are, how can you remember me?"
"That's right."
He Yuwei patted her forehead and said, "My brain seems to be not working well. I'm sorry, husband, I completely forgot about you. I hope you won't blame me."
"How could that be? I feel sorry for you so much that it's almost too late."
Zhao Mu thought that this girl was too polite and actually apologized to him.
This made Zhao Mu feel a little guilty.
But for the reward, Zhao Mu still planned to continue lying.
"Let's go. I'll take you home first. We can talk about other things later."
Zhao Mu picked up He Yuwei by the waist and used the Phantom Step to quickly leave the Starfire Fairy Boat.
He Yuwei looked confused the whole time, but when she looked at Zhao Mu's handsome profile, she thought to herself that her husband was quite handsome.
It seems that I still have good vision.
"Xingtuan, let's go."
This place was filled with evil, so Zhao Mu didn't dare to stay there any longer. He immediately took the star cluster and flew out of the water, heading north towards the shore.
Soon Zhao Mu returned to the Zhao family's territory and summoned Pixiu to escort him directly back to the palace in Yuanjing City.
The house is prone to leaks and is not suitable for He Yuwei's residence.
It would be more appropriate to hide her here.
