LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 69: The Secret Of The Heaven-Piercing Coffin Of Death
[Your descendant, Li Dalong, is entering the Spirit Treasure—the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death!]
"Spirit Treasure!" Li Wei's eyes lit up. In this world, weapons and equipment are categorized into common weapons and artifacts, spiritual weapons and artifacts, magical treasures, and spirit treasures.
Spirit treasures are already the most powerful existences in this world, and this particular spirit treasure is clearly of a special type, forming its own space, no different from a secluded cultivation cave.
When the mysterious spear Li Wei obtained was unsealed and revealed to be a top-grade magical treasure, he was already ecstatic.
He didn't expect that the coffin was the real treasure!
Li Wei quickly suppressed his excitement.
He clicked on Li Dalong's profile picture and, following Li Dalong's perspective, entered the scene within the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death.
"Hmm?" As soon as he entered the space within the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, Li Wei frowned.
In the game screen, he saw a desolate and lifeless space, shrouded in mist.
Then he looked at the map on the game interface—
[First Level of the Heaven-Piercing Space]
[Description: The first level of the legacy left behind by the Mahayana peak cultivator, Shen Wu. Gaining recognition from the first level space allows entry into the second level!]
Immediately after, On the map, numerous red dots could be seen, encircling and attacking Li Dalong, who was standing in place with a bewildered expression.
Soon, Li Wei saw the true nature of those things clearly.
Dried corpses, their eyes bloodshot and bodies radiating a chilling aura, surrounded Li Dalong. Sensing the presence of the only living being on the first level, they lunged at him with a ravenous hunger, eager to feast on his flesh and blood.
"Hmph!"
As the head of the Li family, how could Li Dalong be frightened by these dried corpses?
He let out a cold snort, and a pair of spiritual weapons Spears appeared in his hands, "The dead should just lie still in the ground!"
In an instant, Li Dalong was already battling with the zombies.
These zombies were endless, and Li Wei could clearly see the red dots on the map appearing continuously.
"What the heck is this Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death?"
Seeing Li Dalong enter the Heaven-Piercing Coffin and encounter endless zombies instead of the imagined treasures, Li Wei frowns.
However, it was also Li Wei's first time encountering a treasure of this level.
Moreover, the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death seemed to have the ability to recognize its master and hadn't acknowledged the Li family members as its owners. Perhaps there was something special about it.
"Perhaps one needs to clear the levels of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin to gain its true recognition as its master?"
With a puzzled mood, he saw that Li Dalong was not in any danger.
It seemed that Li Dalong could also exit the Heaven-Piercing Coffin on his own, so Li Wei withdrew from Li Dalong's perspective to see if there were any abnormalities with the Heaven-Piercing Coffin.
As expected, As soon as the game screen returned to the Spirit Herb Garden, Li Wei saw that everyone in the Li family was covering their mouths in surprise.
"So much spiritual Qi!"
"Father entered the Heaven-Piercing Coffin, did he gain some benefits?"
"Ancestor bless our Li family!"
They saw that The spiritual Qi between heaven and earth was actually converging towards the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death!
Li Wei suddenly understood, "The zombies on the first level are not real, but are formed by the Heaven-Piercing Coffin absorbing spiritual Qi from heaven and earth."
However, in a short time, no other uses of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin could be discerned.
Li Wei then sped up the rate of time.
It seemed that two days had passed on the game screen.
Li Dalong was still inside the coffin. Switching the scene, Li Dalong was still fighting the zombies on the first level of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death!
The strange thing was, that Li Dalong's True Qi, after two days, hadn't been consumed at all!
Even when Li Dalong suffered minor injuries, he recovered in no time.
Then he looked at Li Dalong's personal information.
[Basic Spear Technique: 82%]
[Gale Steps: 62%]
[Roaming Dragon Spear Manual: 16%]
[Lightning Summoning Technique: 12%]
[Palm Flame: 6%]
[...]
"This..."
Li Wei's eyes widened. Before Li Dalong entered, Li Wei had already checked his personal information, and now, Li Dalong's various techniques had all improved!
"So that means, the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death can provide unlimited spiritual Qi, continuously heal injuries, and allow cultivators to fight endlessly, making it a treasure for cultivating techniques and martial arts?!?"
Li Wei couldn't help but be surprised.
For cultivators, combat experience is very important. Often in battles, their techniques and martial arts will progress.
A cultivator at the early Foundation Establishment stage, if they practice a certain martial art or technique to the point of 100% mastery, might even be able to challenge opponents of a higher level.
Fighting between life and death may even lead them to enlightenment and breakthroughs.
"Is this the power of a top-grade spirit treasure?"
Even Li Wei was tempted to take this treasure out and use it himself.
But Li Wei also knew clearly that it would be best to leave this spirit treasure for the Li family to use, as it could increase their combat experience.
Moreover, Li Wei glanced at the techniques and martial arts of the Li family members.
He casually clicked on Li Dalong's technique, Gale Steps!
[Do you want to learn the technique, Gale Steps?]
[Consume 500 Incense points to obtain all of Li Dalong's current insights and experience.]
He didn't need the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death at all!
This game not only allowed him to bring out treasures from within, but he could also learn the techniques independently, by consuming Incense points.
He could even consume Incense to gain all the insights and experience of his descendants!
Furthermore, techniques and martial arts are divided into five categories: Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow, and Ordinary.
Li Wei was no longer interested in Ordinary and Yellow grade techniques and martial arts.
"This is great. Let the Li family members slowly cultivate through the Heaven-Piercing Coffin. With this treasure, the Li family's development will surely be rapid."
While pondering, The game screen once again displayed a prompt, causing Li Wei to open his mouth wide in surprise.
[Your descendant, Li Dalong, has been continuously fighting on the first level of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death, charging all the way to the end of the first level.]
[He has reached the end of the first level of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death!]
[The Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death has acknowledged Li Dalong as the master of the first level!]
[Bestowed Yellow-grade technique - Heaven-Piercing Coffin Corpse Control Technique]
[Congratulations, your descendant Li Dalong has obtained the profession -]
[Heaven-Piercing Coffin Corpse Controller!]
The bronze coffin opened. Li Dalong, emerging from the coffin with black light emanating from his eyes, knelt down towards Li Wei's memorial tablet amidst the joyful expressions of the Li family members.
"With Ancestor's blessings! I, your descendant, have learned the secret of the Heaven-Piercing Coffin of Death. Our Li family is destined for greatness!"
