The disaster came too quickly – Gu Hanshan had no time to react, he had no room to resist, he was immediately pulled into the Demon Beast by those terrifying flesh-chains.

Feng Qianqiu looked back with astonishment from below, but he was not too concerned, all his attention focused on the Demon Saint’s mummified body not far ahead.

At this moment, Feng Qianqiu was less than ten steps away from the Demon Saint’s mummified body, seemingly within his grasp.

Feng Qianqiu’s eyes gleamed, as if he saw a pile of treasures, his face was filled with excitement and desire.

Indeed, this Demon Saint’s mummified body was equivalent to a colossal treasure, besides the precious Demon Saint’s Essence Blood, this undecayed body of Demon Saint for thousands of years also had great value.

The closer he got to this moment, the more careful and cautious he had to be, he must not capsize in this gutter.

As Feng Qianqiu took another two steps forward, the Demon Saint’s mummified body suddenly seemed to twitch slightly.

Feng Qianqiu’s face turned pale instantly, he stood still, not daring to move at all, and his eyes were filled with alarm and disbelief.

“How is it possible? This Demon Saint has been dead for thousands of years, it is absolutely impossible that it is still alive, I must be too nervous, and suffering from an optical illusion!” Feng Qianqiu thought to himself, reminding himself to stay calm.

However, the Demon Saint’s mummified body did twitch slightly just now, although it was very slight and hard to detect, but Feng Qianqiu had been focusing all his attention and saw it clearly.

Now, Feng Qianqiu was highly suspicious and superstitious, even though he firmly believed that the Demon Saint’s mummified body was dead, how could a dead body move?

Feng Qianqiu had a hundred questions in his heart, at this moment he was caught in a dilemma, should he continue to covet the Demon Saint’s mummified body?

In truth, Feng Qianqiu was very scared of death, he would contemplate thoroughly before embarking on anything, for example, during the several incidents he had stirred in Qian Country, everything was planned properly, leaving no chance for errors.

But in front of this Demon Saint’s mummified body, although Feng Qianqiu had prepared thoroughly, the greatest uncertainty was still this Demon Saint’s mummified body.

Feng Qianqiu hesitated, as invaluable as the Demon Saint’s mummified body, it was a great opportunity from heavens, but if this costed his life? Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?

However, to let Feng Qianqiu give up this Demon Saint’s mummified body, it would cause him great heartache. This was like a huge piece of meat at his fingertips. Giving up like this, Feng Qianqiu expected he would be distressed and unable to let it go all his life.

After much thought, Feng Qianqiu’s eyes began to clear, his face showing resolved determination.

He had made up his mind to keep moving forward!

This opportunity was too rare for Feng Qianqiu, he didn’t know if he missed it, whether there would be a second chance. But Feng Qianqiu knew if he missed it, he would definitely regret it.

So as not to regret it, Feng Qianqiu prepared to stake his life on this gamble.

Of course, Feng Qianqiu wouldn’t just rush forward recklessly, he was well-prepared this time. To be on guard, he slapped his Beast Bag on his waist, releasing a Demon Beast.

It was a Demon Beast that somewhat resembled a dog, or perhaps it was a dog that had cultivated into a Demon Beast.

This dog was adorable, it looked quite pleasing, its eyes round and big, shining brightly. The most amazing thing was that the nose of this dog was dazzlingly golden.

“Jin, go and check out that corpse, I’ll feed you something good later,” Feng Qianqiu patted the Golden Nose Dog’s head and pointed at the Demon Saint’s mummified body not far away.

Who knew that the Golden Nose Dog would whimper, lay on the ground, and dare not move at all, its body trembling, seemingly extremely frightened.

Feng Qianqiu was speechless, although he knew this place was the Ten Thousand Beast Graveyard, with the presence of a Demon Saint’s corpse, any ordinary Demon Beast appearing here would mostly be terrified to the extreme.

But Feng Qianqiu had no choice, this Golden Nose Dog was one of his sharpest Demon Beasts, but it turned out to be so pathetic.

“Go quickly, if you don’t go, I will butcher you for soup right now!” Feng Qianqiu said threateningly, slapping forcefully on the Golden Nose Dog’s body.

The Golden Nose Dog was depressed, it gave Feng Qianqiu a grievously aggrieved look.

Then, the Golden Nose Dog barely managed to stand up, trembling as it walked towards the Demon Saint’s mummified body.

Feng Qianqiu was extremely nervous, he gazed intensely at the Golden Nose Dog and the Demon Saint’s mummified body, it seemed as soon as there was any movement, he would immediately turn tail.

The Golden Nose Dog soon reached the side of the Demon Saint’s mummified body, but it seemed to fear this mummy tremendously, its body couldn’t stop trembling, then it retreated and knelt on the ground, bowing to the Demon Saint’s mummified body like a human.

Yes, a dog was worshipping the mummy like a human, this scene would undoubtedly amaze many people if seen by others.

But Feng Qianqiu didn’t find it strange at all, this was the Demon Saint’s mummified body, even after death its residual prestige remained, being worshipped by the Golden Nose Dog was totally normal.

However, seeing that the Golden Nose Dog was safe and sound, Feng Qianqiu also relaxed and stepped up to the side of the Demon Saint’s mummified body.

The Golden Nose Dog was still continuously worshiping, Feng Qianqiu looked at it, and then he noticed that the eyes of the Golden Nose Dog were devoid of life and its body was slowly starting to shrink.

Feng Qianqiu’s face turned pale, he quickly stepped back.

At the same time, the body of the Golden Nose Dog was visibly withering away, as if the flesh and blood within its body were disappearing, yet strangely enough, the Golden Nose Dog continued to worship the mummified body of the Demon Saint.

Even when their bodies were reduced to nothing but skin and bones, it still didn’t stop, until the flesh and blood in their bodies completely disappeared, even their eyeballs turned into two shriveled things that fell out, the Golden Nose Dog finally collapsed to one side, completely devoid of life.

At the same time, a faint flash of blood light appeared on the Demon Saint’s mummified body, although it vanished in an instant, Feng Qianqiu saw it clearly this time.

Feng Qianqiu was terrified beyond words, he felt as if he had been hit hard, he kept retreating and shouting that it was not possible.

“Damn it! The Demon Saint is still alive! How is this possible? It should have been dead for tens of thousands of years, how can it still be so terrifying?” Feng Qianqiu roared in his heart, but what he felt more was fear.

He glanced at the torn beast skin in his hand, a chill ran through his heart, he seemed to have guessed something, his face paled even further, his body involuntarily began to tremble.

Feng Qianqiu looked up, looking all around him, and then at the Demon Saint’s mummified body, fear, tension and suppression spread in his heart.

“This is a trap, we’ve all been deceived, this is an astonishing hoax set up by the Demon Saint!” Feng Qianqiu laughed bitterly, his eyes filled with despair.
