Chapter 2128 The Death Race
"He is a bald man. His body is shriveled but there doesn''t seem to be any signs of decay!"
Austin pointed out as he looked closely.
"Yes. He looks like a monk in his golden robe. Is he really a Buddhist monk?"
asked Brady, inspecting the body with great interest.
"This monk has been dead for at least tens of thousands of years, or even longer. Yet his flesh still
hasn''t dposed. He must have been very powerful during his time!
Perhaps he was the great master at that time when he was still alive!"
Brady concluded after he observed the body.
"Even such a powerful person died here. This is really a dangerous ce!"
Austin couldn''t help but feel disturbed.
"Considering that he seemed to have been alone, I doubt he was poisoned to death. There must be a
truly terrifying presence on this mountain!"
Master, I think we should give up the intelligent semi-omnipotent herbs on the mountain. It''s simply too
dangerous.
I''m not sure if we have the capabilities to obtain them,"
Brady cautioned Austin with a serious look. He asked his master to give up his intention of collecting
such herbs. It wasn''t worth the risk.
"All right." Austin nodded. "Look at those skeletons. Since ancient times, there have been countless
masters and cultivators who attempted to get these semi-omnipotent herbs but they were all
unsessful.
Let''s get out of here.
I get the feeling that something bad ising."
Austin felt a chill on his back.
"Let''s hurry. We can''t stay here any longer!"
Brady nodded and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, ck fog suddenly surged up in front of them and then a figure with a strong
sense of death appeared from the fog.
A tall man blocked their way.
The man looked like he had been dead for ages. In fact, he looked exactly like the monk that they had
been observing in the herb field on the hillside just moments ago.
However, he was no longer engulfed by the golden light from his robe. Instead, an overwhelming dark
aura of death surrounded the air.
The endless sense of death came out from the rotten flesh and cracked skin, covering the sky and sun
like a curtain.
The monk towered them both with his height.
"Damn it! He seems to have his eyes on us!"
Brady''s face was outlined with terror.
"Isn''t this monk dead? Is he faking his death?"
Austin couldn''t help but feel a little terrified too.
There was incredible pressureing from the monk. It was powerful and scary.
It seemed that they couldn''t defeat him.
At this moment, the monk''s eyes suddenly opened, radiating two rays of silver light.
The ce turned dark as night as the aura of death surrounding them grew thicker and thicker. Among
the darkness, only a tall outline of the monk could be seen. His cold silver eyes red at the two young
boys.
"You two seem to be alive. Why do youe here? Do you want to take my herbs?
If that''s the case, go to hell."
The monk did not speak, but he sent a message to Austin and Brady through their Soul Seas.
"Sir, we can exin. We were about to leave. We have no intention to pick up the herbs."
Austin quickly sent back a message.

"Ha-ha!
It is toote. This is a restricted area. Anyone who are within ten miles of this area must perish.
This is a punishment. There are too many creatures who want to break in here and take my herbs for
themselves."
The killing intent of the monk was evident in his voice.
"Oh, no, master. I just remembered.
In ancient times, there were some great masters who didn''t want to leave their bodies after their
deaths. So they refined their bodies into intelligent corpses.
And they then sealed up their own spiritual soul in the body, so that their flesh would remain immortal
and never grow old or decay.
These beings are called the death race.
In other words, they had already developed into a new race.
Their spiritual souls and thoughts are not much different from us human beings. However, their bodies
are not as energetic as the living."
Looking at the tall monk who was entangled with deathly energy, Brady''s face suddenly turned grim as
he thought of this. He immediately sent a message to Austin.
"The death race?!
Such a race exists?"
Austin was both surprised and curious. It was the first time he had heard of such a race.
"Master, do not look down upon them.
ording to the legend, every death race member was extremely horrifying.
Think about it. Generally speaking, a spiritual soul cannot survive for a long time after it leaves its
physical body. It will soon dissipate.
However, these people of the death race are able to seal their spiritual souls into a corpse and live a
long life without their souls ever dissipating. Just think about it. Can ordinary cultivators even do that?
Every member of the death race must have had unparalleled strength when they were alive!" Brady
exined.
"We are no match for him. We must find a way to escape.
If we can''t run fast enough, we can hide inside the ve Tower for now,"
Brady said to Austin quickly.
"Damn it, the Land of Life-and-death is really full of danger.
One wrong move and you will die!"
Austin couldn''t help but sigh.
Since entering the Land of Life-and-death two days ago, he had encountered a lot of terrible creatures.
The very thought made Austin''s blood freeze.
"Well, boy, it seems that I was too impatient.
With your current cultivation base, it seems that you still have a long way to go before you can enter
the Land of Life-and-death and survive.
This is not even the core area of the Land of Life-and-death. You''ve barely scratched the surface of this
I have a suggestion. If you get through this, get out as quickly as you can. You can return after you
be a great master.
Besides, I''ve waited for a thousand years. It''s okay for me wait a little bit longer!"
the me Emperor eximed in Austin''s Soul Sea.
In the past few days, he had encountered lots of dangers in the Land of Life-and-death, which made his
heart beat faster in terror.
Bang!
At this moment, the monk made a move. From his withered body, he suddenly released a powerful
energy. The heaven and earth copsed. His power was indeed too strong. It was beyond what anyone
could ever imagine.
Austin and Brady turned pale as they saw what wasing. They moved back quickly to avoid the
energy. They didn''t want to fight against him.
Bang!
The monk stretched out his rotten big hand to try and grab them. Wherever it passed, space copsed
on a small scale, and countless dark space cracks appeared.
The big handunched at them at an rming speed.
"Master, give me your Pot of Chaos!"
Brady shouted.
Austin quickly waved his hand and the Pot of Chaos flew out andnded on Brady''s hand.
With the Pot of Chaos in his hand, Brady charged forward.
Bang!
The Pot of Chaos instantly erged into a huge tripod, and collided with the rotten hand.
Hit by the great force, Brady was forced to step back for a thousand meters before he could bnce
himself.
"Wow, he is really strong!"
Austin couldn''t help announcing.
Before entering the Land of Life-and-death, Brady had fought alone against more than a dozen masters
at the Heavenly Grotto Realm. He easily overpowered those masters.
Now he lost to the monk only by one simple move.
If it hadn''t been for the Pot of Chaos, Brady might have been gravely injured by that one move.
At that point, Austin finally realized that the monk in front of them was indeed a terrifying being.
