C827 Tomb Door
"Old man, you and I can suppress things, but what is Bai Ling going to do? She doesn't have to go. " Hong Ling said after a moment of silence. Bai Ling was the real name of the High Priest. She and Hong Ling were sisters, one had become the High Priest, while the other had accepted the true spirit of the High Priest, becoming the Guardian Spirit of the Jiuli Clan.1
"Elder sister, now is the time for the existence of the Jiuli Clan to be in danger, how can I just sit back and do nothing? "One more power." The High Priest quickly retorted.
"With just you? "Hmph …" At that level of cultivation of yours, I'm afraid that even baleful qi cannot withstand it. Yet, you still wish to suppress baleful qi. Hong Ling didn't even give the High Priest a chance to refute her words before she turned into a streak of red light and disappeared from the shrine.
Seeing this, the Senior Magus smiled bitterly, shook his head and comforted the High Priest, "Don't take it to heart. Hong Ling has a soft mouth, but she is afraid that you might be in danger. She doesn't want you to get involved."
Bai Ling nodded her head, "I understand, but I stood at the back as I watched my sister leave with you. Even if I survived, was there any meaning? A Jiuli that was filled with devastation, if their ancestors were willing to see this kind of situation, perhaps they wouldn't have all chosen their own path of no return! Perhaps this is the fate of my Jiuli clan.
He lifted his head and looked at the sky outside the shrine, as if he was waiting for something to happen. However, he did not know whether or not he would be able to take control of this change.
At that moment, after Sikong Banyu went deeper into the cave, the bone-piercing cold became stronger and stronger. Even his tempered body could not bear it and had to use its inner breathing to defend.
"The baleful aura of the Geng Yin and the Eight Evils seem to be even stronger than this, right? This was only the weakest central fiend realm. If the infernal energy here was so terrifying, then wouldn't that mean that there was no place for others to set foot in other places? However, I seem to remember that Gen Yin's eight baleful auras were born from the Dragon Meridians, and they complement each other. They haven't revealed such a terrifying baleful aura yet. What's going on? "
Sikong Banyu felt more and more strange inside this ancient tomb. However, since he had come here, how could he not explore it? Going back empty-handed was not his character! Besides, there was someone in front who had taken the vanguard position for him. What was there to be afraid of?
It was as if there was a strange material on the walls of this cave that could give off a weak light. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was naturally not worth mentioning, but in the eyes of Sikong Banyu, it was enough. The eyesight of cultivators and Fighter were several times stronger than ordinary people!
"Eh? "We're here …" Finally, in front of Sikong Banyu, the two sides of the cave suddenly widened, and in front of him appeared light. It was candlelight, and through the candlelight, one could see from afar that it was a tomb chamber.
"Eh?" Sikong Banyu quickly walked over and squatted in front of the tomb door because on the side of the tomb door, there was actually a hole that was around two feet wide. Beside the tomb door, there was even some scattered dirt. Sikong Banyu looked at the dark hole and immediately stood up and clapped.
"Tsk tsk …" It seems like this group of people are not ordinary grave robbers. They actually have such a good grasp of the location of this tomb.
In fact, many tomb robbers could do this. Searching for the dragon's point, determining the location of the tomb's golden roof, calculating the tomb's size, and then seeing the method of dividing the tomb into gold points and the principle of gossip, determining the direction of the tomb's door, it was naturally easy to find the cave's direction. However, Sikong Banyu believed that these people were not ordinary. It was not just because of this fact. The real reason was that these people had stolen the tomb from outside the tomb gate and not inside the tomb door.
This was strange, the tomb robbers were all people that made a fortune, their goal in searching for the ancient tomb was only one, and that was to take something valuable and make a fortune. In other words, the main reason for him to obtain the treasure was to obtain the treasure within the tomb. In that case, the location of the cave would not need to be outside the tomb door. It would be easier to directly enter the tomb.
For example, the Indian fire oil, glazed roof tiles, as well as hard ores and other things were very difficult for ordinary people to break through. But right now, there were a lot of scientific and technological methods, cutting techniques, and perhaps things that were useful to the ancient people might not be a problem for now.
Furthermore, directly entering through the door would be extremely difficult! The main entrance to the tomb was usually one of the biggest checkpoints. Some were blocked with a thousand jin boulder, some were locked with mechanisms, and even more importantly, self-destruct devices were placed on top of the main entrance. In other words, entering from the main entrance was much more difficult than entering from other places.
Of course, this was only for normal ancient tombs, not the one in front of Sikong Banyu. This was because the owner of the tomb might be ordinary, but the place where he was buried was not ordinary. The place where he was buried was not ordinary, but the place where he was buried might be touched by the owner of the tomb.
"Tsk tsk …" It seemed that this group of tomb robbers had a deep understanding of Gen Yin and Eight Evils' Feng Shui Bureau! He knew he could not enter from any other place in the tomb, otherwise it would be a dead end. Instead, he had struck the cave right in front of the tomb's entrance. Interesting … I'm becoming more and more interested in them. "
Yu Guanhai believed that even if ordinary people heard of this, they would not be able to see it. This was because ordinary people did not have any cultivation, so they were unable to sense the flow of earth energy, and naturally, they were unable to ascertain the circulation of this evil energy.
With that in mind, he looked at the opened tomb door, and walked in, it was a tomb chamber of about five to six meters in length, and in the center of the tomb chamber, there was a huge sarcophagus of about three meters in length, and on the sarcophagus were engravings and patterns, and one could not tell what it was, but on the four walls hung many strange oil lamps, all of which were lit up.
Apart from this, there were no other traces at all.
"As expected, this sarcophagus didn't have any traces of being opened. Logically speaking, a normal grave robber would come here just for money to make a fortune out of it. Since there's the appearance of a sarcophagus, how could he not open it?" Even though they knew that the coffin in front of them wouldn't be of much value, they would at least open it and take a look. They didn't want any of them to slip through the net, but this group of people … "
Sikong Banyu sunk and looked at the marks on the floor of the tomb. These people didn't come for money, but for something else. There were no signs of people for a long time in the tomb, so naturally, there was a lot of dust. Along the traces of dust, Sikong Banyu soon found a few footprints.
It was one of the two sides of the chamber, one on the left and one on the right.
"Left?" En … This was the main tomb of the owner of the tomb chamber. Although the footprints looked a bit messy, if one looked carefully, they should be around four to five people. "What's going on?"
Suddenly, Sikong Banyu noticed a strange footprint. This footprint looked no different from the ones on the soles of the shoes, but strangely, this person's feet were very different from the others, because on the dust marks, the front and back traces of the footprint were very dim, and on the contrary, the middle of the footprint was very heavy. This was not a normal thing, because the feet of an ordinary person, along with the support from the front and back, were sunken, and also not the main point of force.
