"This... this is... a statue of a man with a horse's face?" Fang Ru said in a trembling voice. His face changed from calm to extremely panicked in an instant. He leaned against the invisible wall behind him, trembling with Mu Fei'er.
They saw a group of 2-meter-tall horse-faced statues with human bodies holding huge stone axes, approaching them from the depths of the corridor in neat steps. Meng Xiang certainly did not think that these statues were coming to welcome them. If they were really deprived of all their enhancements and skills as the Lord God said, and if they were to fight against these statues with ordinary people's bodies, they would surely die in this not-so-spacious corridor.
Meng Xiang immediately unlocked his potential lock, his muscles swelled, and with a "splash", the spirit sword spurted out. He suddenly understood and said with surprise: "I understand. The Lord God only deprived me of the power strengthened in the Lord God space, and most of my power is obtained through cultivation, so the King Fist, the Spirit Jade, and even the spiritual physique have been deprived, but my power and my spiritual energy still exist. At least, I still have 50% of my combat power now." He waved the spirit sword and majestically blocked in front of Mu Fei'er and Fang Ru. He was not afraid of the statues that were constantly approaching, and there was a hint of secret joy in his heart. If the Lord God really set it up for the reincarnationist to fight the Scorpion King with the body of an ordinary person, then even if the Lord God took into account that the reincarnationist had the power of his own cultivation, he would not raise the Scorpion King's strength to an unreachable height. In other words, he might get the 5,000 points reward for nothing this time.
Mu Fei'er and Fang Ru were not as calm as Meng Xiang. Fang Ru was afraid of death, and Mu Fei'er was even more afraid of seeing monsters like gods and ghosts. The two were so scared that they kept pushing back against the invisible barrier, and their faces were already pale with fright.
Meng Xiang was full of fighting spirit, but he also felt a great sense of responsibility. Fang Ru and Mu Fei'er behind him were just ordinary people now, especially Mu Fei'er, who was just a young girl. If they made a mistake, they might die in the pyramid. If they died in the pyramid, would they really die or enter the Lost Zone? If the side storyline was confirmed to be true, then Meng Xiang was not sure that if he died in the pyramid, it would be as simple as entering the Lost Zone, so he could not retreat. The side storyline must be completed as soon as possible, and then he could figure out why the side storyline of "The Mummy" was triggered in Fang Ru's subconscious.
Meng Xiang's spiritual energy originally had the effect of exorcising evil spirits, so he had a great advantage in horror movies about gods and ghosts. At this time, he picked up the spiritual sword and rushed forward, slashing one of the statues with one sword.
"Lie" the entire statue was chopped into pieces by Meng Xiang, and then turned into a pile of mud and sand.
After smashing the statue with one sword, Meng Xiang's heart calmed down. He used the spiritual sword to slash while moving forward. He chopped 30 statues in total and finally cleared all the statues inside.
Fang Ru and Mu Fei'er hurried over. Mu Fei'er's feet touched the statue that had turned into sand and mud, but she still felt very scared. She leaned against Meng Xiang, trembling all over.
Fang Ru panted slightly and said, "If this is really a scene from The Mummy, then deep in the corridor is the pyramid's hall, and the resurrected Scorpion King is inside. Meng Xiang, are we just going to rush in like this?"
"I want to..." Meng Xiang hadn't finished speaking when a sense of crisis came over him, almost suffocating him. The rustling sand covered their heads. Mu Fei'er patted the sand on her head and coughed, saying, "What's going on? Is it going to collapse?"
"That's right." Meng Xiang lifted Fang Ru and Mu Fei'er with both hands and used "Shave" to rush deeper into the corridor. The sound of smashing stones could be heard from behind. The back of the corridor had been blocked by a huge rock that had fallen from above.
Meng Xiang didn't dare to stay here any longer. He unlocked the potential lock as much as possible, and hugged the two people and ran forward like an arrow.
Meng Xiang took out the light bead from his ring and handed it to Mu Fei'er. He saw some strange beetles swarming out of the wall from time to time, or some strange statues or mummies were placed beside the corridor. Meng Xiang was like a frightened bird, always feeling that these strange creatures would attack them again, so he ran as fast as he could, and in less than a minute, he had reached the end.
Fang Ru, who was held by Meng Xiang like a child, seemed to have regained his composure. In his dream, Fang Ru's personality seemed to change even faster. He said pretentiously, "Meng Xiang, well done. If you couldn't use 'Shave', you might have had to go through a hard battle to get here."
"So, the power gained from practice is the most real. But Fang Ru, I'm really uncomfortable with you in my arms, let go quickly." Meng Xiang threw Fang Ru aside with one hand, then gently hugged Mu Feier and put him beside him.
Fang Ru raised his glasses, but he was not angry. Instead, he stared at the entrance at the end of the corridor and muttered to himself: "That entrance seems familiar..."
"Brother Fang, have you really been here?" Mu Fei'er asked in surprise, but Fang Ru acted as if he didn't hear her and walked towards the entrance step by step.
In order to prevent any accidents from happening, Meng Xiang hurriedly took Mu Feier's hand and followed. The three of them turned a corner and walked in.
With a "swish", the darkness in front of them was suddenly illuminated by several torches, and a hall wider than a basketball court appeared in front of everyone. There were many ancient Egyptian decorations hanging on the walls and stone pillars of this hall, and there were broken bricks and tiles on the ground. Although this was inside the pyramid and the air was not circulated for many years, the air they breathed was very fresh.
As soon as they entered the hall, the observant Meng Xiang sensed something unusual. Since entering the hall, it was as if a pair of giant eyes were staring at them, like a long-hungry beast, glaring at them hungrily.
Fang Ru rolled his eyes and glanced quickly in all directions, his face slightly relaxed, because he could not find any trace of the Scorpion King within their sight.
Mu Fei'er almost hugged Meng Xiang. She had unlocked her potential and, like Meng Xiang, could feel the unusual atmosphere around her. She was particularly afraid of this weird scene and had lost the protective power of the "Wall of Heart", which made her feel very uneasy.
"Yes, I have been to this hall before. It's not that I have seen it on TV, but I have experienced it personally, and some things happened there that I will never forget." Fang Ru said quietly.
"Let's discuss this later. Fang Ru, Fei'er, don't move here. I'll go take care of the Scorpion King first." Meng Xiang continued to unlock his potential locks, staring at the surroundings with his tiger eyes.
"Where is the Scorpion King?" When Fang Ru heard the Scorpion King, he thought of the giant cursed scorpion monster in the movie, and he couldn't help but shudder.
"Right here, the whole hall is filled with a sense of crisis that makes me uneasy. It should have been resurrected, but where is it hiding?" Meng Xiang walked into the hall carefully with the spirit sword in his right hand. The sense of crisis was too strong, as if the whole hall was filled with suffocating danger.
Suddenly, Meng Xiang felt something foreign touching his clothes around his waist. He had unlocked the third level of his potential lock and was fully alert. Even if a speck of dust fell on him, he would notice it immediately.
Meng Xiang pulled back suddenly and found his left wrist tightened, as if it was clamped by a huge pair of pliers. No matter how he struggled, his left hand could not get free.
However, within Meng Xiang's sight, there was nothing around, let alone the Scorpion King, but the object that clamped his left wrist was like a crab's claws, full of uneven serrations.
Because the entire hall was filled with a sense of crisis, as if someone was hiding in the city, so even if there was danger approaching, Meng Xiang would not be able to detect it in the first time. He thought about it, and with a wave of the sword in his right hand, he chopped off his left hand.
As Mu Feier screamed, blood splattered immediately. The spurted plasma not only splashed onto the broken arm, but some of it remained around the arm. The outline of a huge clamp covered in blood was faintly visible.
Meng Xiang had already unlocked his potential, and the pain was blocked in an instant. He dodged to the side as quickly as possible, only to see that the severed hand was still held by the pincer-like outline and suspended in mid-air. The pincers clamped, and Meng Xiang's left arm was immediately split in two.
"The Scorpion King's body has become transparent. Meng Xiang, quickly use the blood on your severed hand." Fang Ru regained his composure in time and shouted loudly on the other side, but his voice also attracted the Scorpion King's attention. The pincers stained with Meng Xiang's blood rose to the top of the hall and quickly moved along the wall towards Fang Ru and Mu Fei'er...
