Chapter 5049

“Could this coffin be made of blood?”

Kai was shocked after taking a closer look.

The coffin emitted a heavy, bloody scent. Strange symbols covered its surface, slowly shifting, like leaves drifting in a river.

A mysterious energy surrounded the coffin, constantly seeping into it, as if being absorbed by whatever lay inside.

Kai and Mo Qingyun examined the three coffins with growing fascination, finding the scene both eerie and mesmerizing.

While the two remained still, Tianci grew impatient.

He thought they had discovered something important, but he dared not approach recklessly.

“You, go take a look,” Tianci ordered the man in green.

The man in green frowned. “Why don’t you go yourself?”

“If you don’t go, I’ll kill you,” Tianci said coldly. “Choose: die here, or go over and take a look.”

The man in green’s face darkened. Though anger burned in his heart, it was useless.

He was no match for Tianci. Even if he could fight Tianci, Elder Tong stood nearby—escape was impossible.

After a long hesitation, the man in green finally took a step forward. After a few more steps, he turned back, glancing at the woman in white.

His eyes silently pleaded for help, but she acted as if she hadn’t seen him.

In this world, no one sympathizes with the weak.

If you want to earn respect, there’s only one way: become stronger.

That’s the only path forward.

Left with no choice, the man in green could only grit his teeth and slowly approach Kai and Mo Qingyun.

Meanwhile, Kai and Mo Qingyun remained focused on the coffins, completely unaware of the man in green moving toward them.

Although Kai and his companions had already passed by, the man in green remained extremely cautious.

As he approached the stone platform, he couldn’t help but glance at the warrior statues on either side.

At that moment, the statues’ eyes appeared fixed on Kai and Mo Qingyun. After a brief glance, the man in green carefully stepped onto the platform’s steps.

But just as he did, a sudden gust of wind surged toward him. Startled, he quickly raised his sword to block it.

In that instant, the two warrior statues seemed to come alive, striking at him with their swords in unison.

Boom!

The man in green was instantly sent flying, crashing heavily at the feet of Tianci and the others.

His sword shattered into pieces, and his arm hung limp and useless.

With just one blow, the man in green was completely crippled—his weapon destroyed, and his arm ruined.

Everyone was shocked. Even Kai and Mo Qingyun couldn’t help but turn around to look.

When Kai saw that it was the two warrior statues who had attacked, his expression turned grim. He had long suspected something was off about those statues.

The man in green was a fifth-grade cultivator in the Tribulation Realm, yet he was disabled by a single strike.

The strength of these warrior statues was terrifying.

Kai tightened his grip on the Dragon Slaying Sword, staying alert. Mo Qingyun also dared not lower her guard. She hadn’t expected the statues to attack at all.

Yet, even after so much time had passed, the statues only watched Kai and Mo Qingyun with their piercing eyes—they made no move to attack.

The man in green slowly stood up, his face twisted in anger and confusion. He couldn’t understand it. He had walked the same path
