Five Elements Sacred Secret

Chapter 274: A Corpse Glowing with Golden Light

Mu Xiaofeng dug up the soil and a small curved golden stick popped out. Mu Xiaofeng dug up more soil and found that it was not a treasure, but a corpse, a golden skeleton.

Mu Xiaofeng dug it out completely. Looking at the white bones with a faint golden glow, he knew at a glance that this should also be a cultivator. Moreover, the white bones with a golden glow were from a body-refining cultivator. It looked like it might have existed for who knows how many years.

On the golden bones, Mu Xiaofeng saw many wounds, and they were irregular. Mu Xiaofeng touched them with his hand, and found that the wounds were similar to the attacks he encountered in the void. It seemed that this person might have died here due to serious injuries.

Mu Xiaofeng also had some understanding from the information left by Beiyun Zhengzun. Only when one reaches the King Realm of Body Refining can one refine golden bones. He must be a strong man. It is estimated that he also came out of the crack, but he was seriously injured and fell directly into the river. In this place without rules and spiritual energy, without flesh and blood, it is extremely difficult to recover from body refining.

Thinking that this person might have had the same experience as himself, Mu Xiaofeng felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

Mu Xiaofeng thought about it and decided to take the body up for burial.

After fixing the corpse on his body, Mu Xiaofeng picked up the small fish and shrimp he had caught and swam upwards with the help of his hands and feet.

It’s also simple for Mu Xiaofeng.

After a while, Mu Xiaofeng surfaced.

Feng Qianqian was waiting on the shore with an anxious look on her face. When she saw Mu Xiaofeng surface, she hurried over to meet him.

"Brother Mu, why did you take so long down there?" Feng Qianqian asked.

However, as Mu Xiaofeng emerged more and more from the water, Feng Qianqian could clearly see the corpse on Mu Xiaofeng's back.

"Ah?" Feng Qianqian was startled and took two steps back.

"Brother Mu, what is this?" he asked in horror.

Mu Xiaofeng also understood Feng Qianqian's behavior. Although she killed someone, it was the murderer of her mother. And the bones gave people a different feeling.

Jumping out of the water, Mu Xiaofeng spoke to comfort him, "It's okay, it's okay. Come and take these." Mu Xiaofeng handed over the fish and shrimps that he had wrapped in his clothes.

Feng Qianqian looked at Mu Xiaofeng's package and asked in shock, "Brother Mu, what are these? They can't be someone's relics, right?"

"What are you talking about? These are the fish and shrimps I caught down there." Mu Xiaofeng said.

"Okay." Only then did Feng Qianqian take Mu Xiaofeng's package.

"I'll go bury him." Mu Xiaofeng said.

"Okay." Feng Qianqian was a little afraid to look.

Mu Xiaofeng found a relatively soft place, but now he was in trouble because he didn't have any tools. How could he dig?

After thinking about it, Mu Xiaofeng moved to another place and found a concave place in the mountain wall, and put the corpse in it.

Now Mu Xiaofeng realized that the man's injuries were probably much more serious, with several bones almost broken. There were countless small wounds, but at this time Mu Xiaofeng saw that the corpse was wearing a storage ring on his finger.

Mu Xiaofeng looked at the corpse and said, "Senior, you are resting here forever now. You can no longer use these belongings. I will just help you put them away."

After saying that, he took off the ring and then carefully placed the corpse flat inside.

After putting it away, Mu Xiaofeng came to the top of the corpse and said, "Without any tools, I can only bury you here."

"Senior, I'm sorry." Mu Xiaofeng punched out, and the soil on the top of the concave part collapsed directly. The soil fell down and just buried the bones.

Mu Xiaofeng jumped down and looked at the pile of dirt in front of him. He looked at the ring again and said, "You can't take the senior's things for nothing."

After saying that, Mu Xiaofeng picked up some large stones and built a tombstone for the corpse.

After finishing everything, Mu Xiaofeng stood in front of the tomb again and said, "Thank you, senior."

Mu Xiaofeng returned to the riverbank and saw that Feng Qianqian had already grilled some fish and shrimp.

Seeing Mu Xiaofeng coming back, Feng Qianqian said, "Brother Mu, you are finally back."

Mu Xiaofeng nodded, and seeing that the fish and shrimp that Feng Qianqian had grilled were still lying there, he said, "Eat them. You must be hungry."

"It's okay. Brother Mu hasn't eaten yet either." Feng Qianqian said with a smile.

"Then eat." Mu Xiaofeng took the food handed over by Feng Qianqian. There was nothing he could do, as Feng Qianqian looked as if she would not eat unless Mu Xiaofeng took it.

When Feng Qianqian saw Mu Xiaofeng take the food, she also picked up some and started eating.

Mu Xiaofeng took a bite and it was so delicious that he couldn't help but praise: "Mm, it's delicious. Qianqian's cooking skills are very good."

Feng Qianqian was probably extremely hungry, so she ate voraciously.

The small barbecue by the river ended quickly.

Mu Xiaofeng wiped his mouth and said, "How are you? Have you rested well? Let's go back. If it's too late, I'm afraid your father will worry again."

"Let's go." Feng Qianqian said with a satisfied look on her face.

The road back was up again, and Feng Qianqian had to take a step and rest every two steps. Mu Xiaofeng had no choice but to carry her on his back.

On the way back, Mu Xiaofeng was also thinking about how to get out of here?

There is no clue at all now, but what the World Tree said about having a chance to get out should be true. But there is no clue at all now, which makes Mu Xiaofeng very headache.

After thinking about it, Mu Xiaofeng finally decided to go back and ask Feng's father to see if he had any insights.

Another way is to practice. World Tree said that he had seen people practicing in this place without rules. Then he couldn't give up practicing. He could also try the Five Elements Sacred Art. At least he couldn't give up hope completely.

After dinner in the evening, Mu Xiaofeng called Feng Laoshi aside.

I told him my thoughts.

Feng Laoshi was rarely silent. After a long while, he said, "Wait here."

Then he turned and went back into the house.

After a while, Feng Laoshi showed a dejected look on his face and said, "This is the ring that Qianqian's mother and I left behind. Whether you can open it depends on your ability. Qianqian's mother's ring may contain an introduction to this abandoned land of immortals."

The more he spoke, the more desolate the look on Feng Laoshi's face became. Finally, he spoke again: "Brother Mu, I don't think you are a bad person. This abandoned land of immortals is not a long-term solution after all. Please take Qianqian with you when you go out next time. This abandoned land of immortals is a hopeless place."

Looking at the usually honest man in front of him, who now had a lonely expression, Mu Xiaofeng could understand. After all, his wife was dead, and he could not practice in the land abandoned by immortals. This kind of gap was not something that most people could accept.

"Uncle Feng, don't worry. I will." Mu Xiaofeng said solemnly.

After thinking for a while, Mu Xiaofeng asked again: "Uncle Feng, do you want to go out together?"

Feng Laoshi shook his head upon hearing this: "I feel relieved after hearing your words. I won't go out. Firstly, my wife is here and I need to accompany her. Secondly, even if I go out, what can I do as a useless person? Besides causing trouble for Qianqian, I'd better not hold Qianqian back."

After saying that, Feng Laoshi left on his own and returned to his room.

Mu Xiaofeng could feel Feng Laoshi's emotions.

He let out a long sigh and returned to his room.
