Even after their death, these corpses still had the strength that they had when they were still alive.
Everyone's scalp tingled when they heard the story.
It was known to all that when a divine god died, his corpse would still contain some divine power as well as some divine law he had comprehended.
However, to everyone's knowledge, it was impossible to maintain the same strength as the time when he was alive.
Only in some lands of death that nourished the dead could the corpses achieve such an effect.
"Run! This way!"
Austin shouted to everyone loudly as he used the Geomancy Compass to navigate towards a certain direction, which was coincidentally where the Layne's Ruler was also pointing at.
"Over there! Jump on that big stone!"
Austin added.
A huge stone, which was even taller than an average-sized building, suddenly appeared in a valley in front of them, and emitted a dazzling golden light.
One side of the stone seemed to have been cut flat by a sword since its surface was as smooth as a mirror. Streaks of extremely sharp sword auras were wrapped around it, as if dragons were surging on it wildly.
At that moment, the golden needle on the Geomancy Compass and the Layne's Ruler were both pointing at the stone.
Austin rushed over and jumped on top of the stone.
Otis and the others followed and also jumped to the stone one by one.
"Austin, can this stone really ward off those evil spirits?
Those fiends are about to catch up on us."
With a lingering fear, Magee looked back.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Streaks of blood red light flashed over and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the big stone.
Then, they caught sight of corpses that were covered with fresh blood. Their eyes were gloomy and spine-chilling, and were staring at the people standing on the big stone with resentment
"Ha-ha-ha!"
About sixty corpses surrounded the big stone, and shrill sounds of menacing and cold laughter resounded the whole area.
Austin and the others immediately broke out in a cold sweat at the sight of the horrifying scene.
They knew that those corpses each had the fighting power of a medium-grade divine god.
However, those corpses seemed to be afraid of something and were hesitant to get too close to the big stone.
At that moment, all of a sudden, something unexpected happened.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The side of the big stone that had been cut flat began to quiver and enlarge violently. Then, streams of fierce sword auras emanated outwards vigorously.
Boom!
A sword aura was slashed out as it continued to become bigger. Finally, it stopped increasing when it turned into the size of a door panel. Immediately afterwards, it hacked towards the corpses.
"GRRRR..."
One of the corpses was instantly agitated. Its blood red hair stood upright, and its sharp claws tried to block the attack of the sword aura as it let out a muffled roar.
Clang!
Its claws were cut off and were instantly blown away.
Crack!
All of a sudden, the corpse was cut in half by the sword aura. The whole place was splashed with blood and reeked of horrible corpse miasma.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
On the big stone, Austin and the others were surprised by the great power of the sword aura.
They didn't expect the sword aura that was left on the stone to be so terrifying!
Such a sword aura could easily kill a corpse with the strength of a medium-grade divine god!
Then, the slaughter continued.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Streaks of sharp and unparalleled sword auras began to slash the corpses one after another.
In an instant, more than a dozen corpses were torn into pieces by those sword auras.
Seeing this, the rest of the corpses, who didn't dare to charge forward, all bellowed thunderously and ran away desperately.
However, the speed of the sword auras was too fast. Like swift arrows, they chased after those corpses and ripped them to pieces brutally and mercilessly.
A few seconds later, almost forty corpses were killed on the spot.
On the ground, there were blood red fragments of flesh and bones everywhere. The whole scene made Austin and his companions completely dumbfounded.
Finally, the remaining corpses had long disappeared without a trace.
"Oh my god! That was awesome!"
On the big stone, everyone was stunned.
"Austin, your Earth Exploring Technique is truly remarkable! The stone you chose actually helped us save our lives!"
Everyone looked at Austin with admiration.
"Wait! These sword auras feel so familiar to me!"
Austin, on the other hand, was still dumbstruck by what happened. He stared at the crisscross sharp sword auras and scrutinized them thoroughly.
"What? Could they be left by him?"
Austin murmured to himself.
All of a sudden, he took a step forward and came to the side where the big stone was cut flat. He then looked at the dancing sword auras closely.
"Austin, what are you doing? Watch out!"
"Be careful, Austin! Don't touch the sword auras!"
