Chapter 181 - River Undercurrent
The ground trembled and the stone coffin shook violently along. Slowly, it tilted and slid down a pitch black crack, falling over.
Moments later, the stone coffin fell into water with a loud splash and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Dust flew everywhere as boulders rolled down.
The sky was collapsing!
After a long time, the tremors finally calmed down. The original place was reduced to ruins without any sign of life.
In the middle of the ruins, there was a huge hole. It was pitch black and no one knew where it led to.
A gentle breeze gusted in the dark night, blowing away the dust of the ruins.
Not far away, four figures stood.
After a while, her expression changed and she retracted her spirit consciousness.
She caught sight of a dark shadow flowing into the distance at the bottom of this river.
If she was not wrong, that should be the undercurrent of the river.
The undercurrent was extremely strong and turbulent. Any object that fell into it would be swept away.
The final position would naturally be at where the undercurrent ended.
“Yan’er, just where are you?”
The figure disappeared, leaving behind a soft sigh.
Not long after Gu Xi left, deep in the rubble beside the river, a pair of pitch black holes in the eyes of a skeleton emitted a scarlet, sinister glow!
…
Even though Su Zimo and Demoness Ji were hidden in the stone coffin, both of them still suffered a huge blow the moment it fell into the river.
“Ugh!”
“Ah!”
Su Zimo grunted softly and Demoness Ji howled in pain.
The two sounds that emitted together from the stone coffin came across as strange.
Su Zimo felt a sharp pain in his chest. That sudden impact rattled his tendons and bones, causing him to gasp as it felt like his bones were falling apart.
Demoness Ji’s arm was previously injured by Shangguan Yu. It was a minor injury and was no longer bleeding after it was bandaged.
However, that impact tore the wound once more as Demoness Ji frowned and yelped.
Although there was a thick stone coffin between them, Demoness Ji could still feel the flow of the river outside.
She heaved a sigh of relief.
No matter what, they had managed to escape the place. Once the stone coffin sank to the bottom of the water, they would be able to break out from inside.
All of a sudden!
The stone coffin did not continue to sink. As though it was pulled by an external force, it continued to roll forward.
It was a sudden change of momentum and the two people who were caught off guard inside collided against one another.
Both of their hearts went aflutter as they retreated subconsciously. However, there was not much excess space within the cramped stone coffin.
After that, the atmosphere within the stone coffin turned odd immediately. The temperature seemed to be rising in a frustratingly hot manner.
In the darkness, both of them panted slightly and faced each other. Their eyes met but they did not speak.
Su Zimo turned his head and slanted his body slightly.
His body was still slightly swollen because the bloodline essence within it was not absorbed yet. It did not matter if he moved, but once again, he accidentally made contact with Demoness Ji.
Su Zimo quickly stopped what he was doing and laid rooted to the spot.
