Chapter 168 - 168 The Importance of Thinking Carefully Before Doing It



He had indeed heard of the Undying Army, but it was all in some unrealistic third-rate novels. Liu Hongshan was already more than a hundred years old. Why would he still read that kind of thing?

Seeing that Lin Ran was silent, Liu Hongshan thought that he didn’t know. He paused for a moment and said softly, “As the name suggests, the Undying Army is an army that won’t die…”

“I know that.”

Lin Ran quickly raised his hand to stop Liu Hongshan and replied, “I read a few fictional novels where the Undying Army was mentioned. I didn’t expect you to be a lover of novels too.”

“Novels?”

Liu Hongshan was puzzled for a moment before realizing that Lin Ran had misunderstood. He said seriously, “I’m not talking about the novels, but the real Undying Army in history!”

Lin Ran was stunned. “Are you serious?”

Liu Hongshan ignored Lin Ran’s doubts. He paused for a moment and continued, “It’s not exactly accurate to say that it really existed because no one has seen it with their own eyes… In other words, everyone who has seen the Undying Army is dead.”

Lin Ran looked at Liu Hongshan suspiciously. His first reaction was that Liu Hongshan was talking nonsense, but he did not interrupt him.

Although Lin Ran didn’t believe it, since Liu Hongshan wanted to tell him, he would let him. He could take the opportunity to figure out how to get out of this situation.

Liu Hongshan didn’t know what Lin Ran was thinking. He looked at the palace in the distance and said, “According to legend, the first time the Undying Army appeared was during the founding war of the Heavenly Saint Dynasty.”

“At that time, the Heavenly Saint Emperor was surrounded by the enemy on the mountain and had no food or water. There were only a few hundred troops left.”

“The enemy troops who were besieging the mountain thought that victory was in their grasp, but they did not expect the Heavenly Saint Emperor to be bestowed by the heavens and earth with the ability to command the dead!”

“These resurrected soldiers are tireless. They don’t feel pain when they’re attacked by swords and axes. Moreover, they’re immortal. Even if their heads are cut off, their remaining bodies can continue to fight. If we want to destroy them, we have to smash their bodies into pieces!”

Lin Ran nodded absent-minded. “Oh, so powerful? What happened next?”

“Later on, the Heavenly Saint Emperor used this opportunity to break out of the encirclement. It can be said that without this Undying Army, the Heavenly Saint Dynasty wouldn’t exist today.”

Lin Ran nodded again. “What does that have to do with us?”

“Did you not hear what I said just now?”

Liu Hongshan suddenly turned to look at Lin Ran. “Those people inside are very likely the Undying Army. What do you think it has to do with us?”

Lin Ran was caught not paying attention and immediately felt a little embarrassed. He quickly pretended to be calm and said, “I don’t think it’s that coincidental. Let’s not talk about whether that thing really exists or not. Didn’t you say that no one has seen the Undying Army? Then how did you recognize it?”

“Because I’ve been investigating this for 60 years.”

Liu Hongshan replied in a low voice. Before Lin Ran could speak, he asked, “Besides, if those things are not the Undying Army, how do you explain the shadows we saw before?”

“Didn’t you say it was a beast’s shadow?”

Lin Ran asked righteously and looked at Liu Hongshan with a subtle expression. “Or did you not see clearly what it was at all? Were you lying to me?”

Liu Hongshan’s expression changed slightly. He subconsciously looked away. “Why would I lie to you? I told you that this place is very strange. We have to cooperate to get out.”

Lin Ran snorted and didn’t say anything. He stood up and walked towards the palace.

Seeing this, Liu Hongshan’s expression changed drastically, and his tone became anxious. “Come back quickly! It’s dangerous over there!”

“I was inside just now. If it was dangerous, I would have already been in trouble.”

Lin Ran sneered without looking back. As he spoke, he ran to the door of the palace and pushed it open without hesitation. He grabbed a statue and walked back.

Seeing that Lin Ran had actually carried a statue back, Liu Hongshan’s face darkened. He waved his hand from afar. “Don’t be stupid! This thing is very dangerous!”

“Dangerous my ass! I’ve checked it. It’s just some clay statues!”

Lin Ran rolled his eyes and returned to Liu Hongshan’s side. He raised the statue and dropped it to the ground!

“No!”

Liu Hongshan hurriedly stopped him, but it was too late.

The statue fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. As a large number of fragments flew everywhere, the sneer on Lin Ran’s face instantly froze—

After the statue shattered, what was inside was not clay, but pieces of yellowed human bones!

Liu Hongshan’s face turned pale. He instinctively took a dozen steps back and stared at the fragments on the ground with a terrified expression, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

Lin Ran was also a little stunned. He didn’t expect there to be human bones in this statue. When he realized what was going on, he quickly pressed his palms together and apologized, but he wasn’t too worried.

These broken bones were completely rotten. They were at least hundreds of years old.

Therefore, compared to these broken bones, Lin Ran was more curious about what kind of place the palace was. Why were there so many statues inside, or rather, why were there so many corpses?

Just as Lin Ran was feeling puzzled, he suddenly felt an internal energy fluctuation behind him.

“Liu Hongshan!”

Lin Ran shouted and hurriedly turned around. He realized that Liu Hongshan had already activated his internal energy to the limit!

“Are you crazy?”

Lin Ran’s expression changed drastically as he shouted, “Stop! What if that thing is attracted over?”

“You’re the crazy one!”

Liu Hongshan replied in a low voice with a cold gaze. As his internal energy surged through his body, the aura on his body was also very different from usual. His tone was the same, but it carried a sense of killing intent.

Clang!

The Dragon Roar Dagger let out a soft cry when it was unsheathed. Liu Hongshan stared in the direction of the palace. “What you have to worry about now is whether you can survive until that thing comes over!”

Lin Ran was confused. Just as he was about to ask again, he suddenly heard a rustling sound, as if some insect was flipping its wings, but the sound was much louder.

After being in a daze for a moment, Lin Ran thought of something and suddenly turned to look at the palace.

Through the door he had just opened, the statues on the wooden shelves in the palace were slowly coming back to life!
