Bai Ye walked forward, looking at the stone figures. With a flip of his wrist, a new deck of cards appeared in his hand.
Bai Ye didn't know if these stone figures were the tomb guardians of this chamber. There were many tomb guardians in the Tomb of the King of Huainan, and Bai Ye hadn't encountered all of them in his previous life.
However, in the current situation, only these stone figures seemed peculiar.
Taking out the deck of cards, Bai Ye casually waved them forward. The cards spun in the air and then struck the stone figures, embedding themselves densely all over them.
As expected, after being attacked, the stone figures stirred. They shook their bodies, shedding large amounts of dust, and then advanced towards Bai Ye.
Bai Ye raised his hand and threw more cards. The cards spun, embedding themselves continuously into the stone figures' bodies. However, Bai Ye soon frowned. Although his cards were constantly piercing the stone figures, they didn't seem to be very effective.
The cards were repeatedly embedded in the stone figures' bodies. While they could create cracks, they struggled to deliver a fatal blow.
Bai Ye mused as he slowly moved his steps, creating distance between himself and the stone figures.
Suddenly, a spark of inspiration flashed through Bai Ye's mind.
"Great Inventor!"
Great Inventor (Supernatural Ability): Once every hour, can randomly invent a technological item.
Bai Ye suddenly activated the Great Inventor's ability. Although it was a white gacha, there might be a surprise.
In an instant, a white light appeared before Bai Ye. Following that, a pile of miscellaneous parts fell from the light.
"Can it create things out of thin air?" Bai Ye looked at the pile of parts. "I wonder what kind of technological item can be assembled."
As Bai Ye was thinking, the parts on the ground began to assemble themselves. Soon...
A flashlight appeared before Bai Ye.
Bai Ye's face was instantly filled with confusion. "Why a flashlight? Does your definition of a technological item include flashlights?"
"No, no, it just looks like a flashlight. Maybe if I turn it on, it transforms into a lightsaber?"
Bai Ye comforted himself as he picked up the flashlight.
Solar-powered flashlight: A flashlight powered by solar energy. It lights up as long as there is sunlight. The disadvantage is that it absolutely does not light up without sunlight.
Bai Ye: "??"
Bai Ye tilted his head. This seemed to be a rather remarkable technological item?
It was at this moment that a strong gust of wind suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ye.
Looking up, he saw that the stone figures had already reached him.
One stone figure, wielding a stone spear, swept it horizontally, striking towards Bai Ye's head.
Bai Ye snapped back to reality. Instinctively, he leaned his body backward, evading the spear, and simultaneously kicked the stone figure's chest, knocking it away.
The next instant, Bai Ye raised the high-frequency serrated blade.
The serrated blades on both sides spun rapidly, emitting a piercing sound. Then, Bai Ye forcefully swept the high-frequency serrated blade forward.
With a *whoosh*!
The spinning serrated blade struck the stone figure's body. That moment felt like cutting through vegetables and fruit for Bai Ye. The stone figure's rather sturdy body was completely vulnerable before the high-frequency serrated blade. It was easily cut apart, and then half of its body fell to the ground, shattering into pieces and turning into rubble.
"As expected, blue gachas are reliable!"
A hint of joy appeared on Bai Ye's face. This thing was even more useful than he had imagined.
*Clang!*
As Bai Ye was thinking, he raised the high-frequency serrated blade and clashed with an incoming spear. As he blocked the stone figure's attack, Bai Ye suddenly twisted the handle with force.
The high-frequency serrated blade split into two, becoming dual blades, making it more agile.
Bai Ye took advantage of the moment, weaving through the gaps between the stone figures, his dual blades continuously slashing outwards.
The sound of stone shattering echoed repeatedly.
The strength of these stone figures lay in their stone bodies, possessing considerable defensive power. However, the destructive power of the high-frequency serrated blade was even greater than Bai Ye had imagined. It could easily destroy the stone figures.
By the time Bai Ye had woven through the stone figures...
*Crash!*
A pile of stone figures' bodies shattered and collapsed, turning into countless fragments that rained down on the ground.
Bai Ye twisted his ankle and swept another blade sideways, striking a stone figure's neck and decapitating it.
"Ning Shuang, Sword Control!"
As he sheathed his blade, Bai Ye suddenly uttered a low shout. Immediately, the Ning Shuang sword, which was suspended beside Bai Ye, transformed into a silver sword light and shot towards Bai Ye's back.
*Bang!*
A stone figure, holding a stone knife, raised its arm behind Bai Ye. A large hole was pierced through the center of its forehead by the Ning Shuang sword. Then, its body toppled backward, crashing and shattering.
"You have successfully killed 15 tomb guardians within the Tomb of the King of Huainan. Reward: Dao Talismans x99."
As the last stone figure was killed by Bai Ye, one of the forbidden zone missions—killing fifteen tomb guardians—was successfully completed. A stack of yellow paper talismans appeared in Bai Ye's hand.
Dao talismans are not rare items; they are simply consumables. However, they are often indispensable. If one learns Daoist arts in the immortal realm, Dao talismans are often used as a medium to cast spells.
To put it more simply, Dao talismans are like bullets for firearms. A machine gun without bullets is just a fire stick, and without Dao talismans, Daoist arts cannot be cast.
For Bai Ye, these items were temporarily useless. However, wasn't this expedition for the Five Spirit Disk? Once he obtained the Five Spirit Disk and learned the Five Spirit Curses, these Dao talismans would naturally find their purpose.
Meanwhile...
As the stone figures were all eliminated, a wall on the side rose, and a new passage appeared before Bai Ye.
Exiting the stone chamber, the passage led to both the left and right. Bai Ye chose to go right, continuing deeper into the tomb of the King of Huainan.
In fact, the Tomb of the King of Huainan was very suitable for treasure hunting because there were many treasures within. Even without completing forbidden zone missions, one could find good items in some chambers or secret passages.
Although Bai Ye did not obtain the Five Spirit Disk and learn the Five Spirit Curses in his previous life, he had found many good things within the Tomb of the King of Huainan.
However, in this life, Bai Ye's goal was clear: he was here for the Five Spirit Disk and would not waste time on other matters. Moreover, the Tomb of the King of Huainan was like a vast labyrinth, and it would not be easy to find all the secret passages relying solely on his memories from his previous life.
Lost in thought, Bai Ye had already reached the end of the passage. He could vaguely see a light emanating from the end.
