The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 1635

"That is... the Death River?"

Austin stared at the black river curiously.

It was quite enormous—over four hundred meters in width, to be exact.

Then, several whirlpools appeared out of the blue in the center of the river.

And out of the water came some creatures that started floating on the surface.

After looking at it more intensely, Austin realized that the creatures were actually corpses whose bodies were covered with moss. More than that, their eyes were a terrifying shade of green.

"The Death Water of Death River could bring corpses to life. These things can think. It's absolutely horrible,"

the old man sighed.

"Old man, what the heck is the Death River?"

Austin asked, finally giving in to his curiosity.

"Ancient great masters were big on setting up a Death River to prevent intruders from getting to their coffins.

The water in the Death River is called the Death Water, which has the ability to nourish corpses. Before the ancient great masters died, they made sure to put down several of their strong enemies so that they could throw their bodies into the Death River. Then, as time went by, the dead became intelligent corpses due to the Death Water.

The Death Water and the intelligent corpses in it are immensely spooky things. We should take extra measures to stay away from them.

However, if we can successfully cross this river, we will get to the Purple Immortal's coffin.

I have to say, the treasures there are priceless,"

the old man replied as he stared at the other side of the Death River expectantly.

Even with the use of his spiritual sense, he couldn't see anything on the other side of the river no matter how hard he tried.

'Intelligent corpses? Death Water?'

Austin felt a chill creep up his spine.

He took a closer look at the river, and spotted numerous corpses covered by moss. After looking at it for a while, he found that the number of these spooky things was incalculable.

"It's the Death River!"

The elders from the Rudimentary Holy Land who were following Austin immediately recognized the river in front of them, too.

Apparently, they knew much about the Death River as well.

'The Death River guards ancient great masters' real tombs.

Purple Immortal's most valuable treasures are on the other side of this river, ' the elders thought to themselves.

Their eyes lit up with excitement as they gazed at the Death River.

Upon seeing them, the old man and Austin wasted no time before running downstream.

This time, however, the elders of the Rudimentary Holy Land didn't go after them.

Instead, they stood by the Death River and observed it carefully.

"Forget that brat for now.

Let's work out a plan for how we can cross this Death River.

Purple Immortal's real tomb is on the other side of it.

It is very likely that we would find Purple Immortal's best martial skills and magic treasures there. In fact, we might even get some special experiences and reach the Immortal Transforming Realm,"

one of the four elders gushed, rubbing his hands in thrill.

At the same time, the rest of the elders trembled slightly with excitement.

It went without saying that Purple Immortal's most important treasures and the chance to enter the Immortal Transforming Realm mattered very much to cultivators.

Even the holy lords of the three holy lands and the leaders of the three prominent clans wanted them badly.

After all, no one in the East Mainland had managed to reach the Immortal Transforming Realm for over tens of thousands of years.

"I'm flying across it," one of them said, unable to contain himself from seeking the treasures on the other side of the river.

He jumped into the air in an attempt to fly across the Death River.

However, while he was above the river, two whirlpools appeared, and out of them appeared two intelligent corpses.

Black water splashed as they charged at the elder in the sky with their claws.

All of a sudden, a bronze bell appeared from the elder's body.

The moment it hit the air, it immediately grew in size and started emitting a brilliant beam of light to hit the two corpses.

"Crack!"

With no effort at all, the two intelligent corpses were able to reduce the shiny bronze bell to powder, and what remained of the bronze bell fell helplessly into the river.

Then the two corpses hugged the elder at the same time.

"Get away from me!"

In a panicked frenzy, the elder successfully smashed one of the corpses' skull.

But before he could even do anything else, he was torn into pieces by the other corpse in the wink of an eye.

Before taking his last breath, he let out a horrifying scream. His shrill cry reverberated all throughout the space.

Even Austin, who was usually unfazed by gruesome deaths, found himself terrified from seeing how the elder from the Rudimentary Holy Land got killed.

'Being an elder of the holy land, he was supposed to be terrifyingly powerful.

But he died at the hands of no more than two intelligent corpses.

Those intelligent corpses are scary good, ' Austin thought.

Meanwhile, the elder's screech caught the attention of other people.
