Chapter Seventy-Seven: Into the Tomb
The arrival of a group of people outside the bamboo forest also attracted the attention of the people here, and when they saw the tokens on the waists of the dozens of figures, their faces couldn't help but change, obviously they also recognized the identities of Ye Xuan and the others. But the panicked look on his face was replaced by a ruthless color after it lasted for a moment.
This place is also quite far away from the Heavenly Spirit Sect, and the deterrent power of the Heavenly Spirit Sect is certainly not as strong as in the Heavenly Spirit City, and most of the people who come here are here for the treasures or elixirs in the ancient tombs, in this case, any fear will be dispelled a lot by the greed for treasures.
People die for money, birds die for food, not to mention that there are mixed fish and dragons here, if the disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect die here, it will be difficult for the Heavenly Spirit Sect to find out something. Moreover, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, even if the Heavenly Spirit Sect knew that the disciples of their sect died here and wanted to avenge him, they would have already taken the treasure away and fled.
Thinking of this, the faces of those people of the three sects and nine streams were also a little relaxed, and then they put more thoughts on a huge stone gate in front of the hills.
After Ye Xuan and the others arrived here, they also gathered together in an orderly manner under Zhang Feng's command. Zhang Feng stood in front of everyone, his face was a little grim, he didn't expect the news of the birth of the ancient tomb to attract so many people, and looking at the fierce and vicious appearance of these people, it was obvious that they would not be treated favorably because they were disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
"Everyone must not leave the team at will, after entering the ancient tomb, you must be in good spirits and be careful. It is inevitable that there will be hidden weapons in the ancient tombs, so you should pay attention to them carefully. Zhang Feng stood in front of everyone and reminded everyone. Ye Xuan was a little surprised, this Zhang Feng had the demeanor of a leader.
Zhang Feng waved his arm, and everyone was advancing towards the green bamboo. Ye Xuan walked behind everyone, and suddenly his eyes saw that there were several tender white bamboo shoots breaking out of the ground in front of him, reflecting a touch of snow in the sun. Ye Xuan was a little curious, and when he passed by, he bent down and dug out the few tender white bamboo shoots and put them into the storage bag on his waist. Such a snow-white and translucent bamboo shoot should taste pretty good.
The group walked straight across the green bamboo, and stopped at a place near the hill to rest for a while.
Not far from Ye Xuan and the others, there were two teams, they seemed to belong to different forces, so there was also some distance between the two teams, and they were whispering at the moment.
"Three masters, I didn't expect that the people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect would also come to lie in this troubled water. "A man with a thief's eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes is flattering a man who looks rather fierce. The man seemed to be the leader of the men, and he carried a large knife on his shoulder, and there were still traces of undried blood on the blade. This person's face was full of scum, and his eyes were shining.
"No matter what kind of Tianling Sect he is, our Wolf Head Village will not let go of the fat of the ancient tomb. And I heard that there are a large number of spiritual beads, Xuangong, and Xuanshu in this ancient tomb. If we can get these treasures, then the strength of our wolf's head village can be improved again, and then we can continue to expand our sphere of influence. The third master glanced coldly at the position of Ye Xuan and the others, and then spoke.
Not far from this team, there were more than a dozen figures standing neatly behind a man in green clothes. The man in green clothes also looked in the direction of Ye Xuan and them without a trace, and then quickly retracted his gaze, his eyes flickered slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Young Master, I didn't expect that the Heavenly Spirit Sect was so far away from here and also got the news of the birth of the ancient tomb and sent a disciple over. So many people gathered here for the large number of treasures in the ancient tomb, it is really a monk with more porridge. There was a subordinate who looked like he said to the man in Tsing Yi in front of him.
The man in Tsing Yi also frowned slightly, as if he was a little unhappy. The place where the ancient tomb was born was obviously far away from the range of the Heavenly Spirit Sect, and at this moment, they actually sent disciples over to share a piece of their local ancient tomb. This did make the man in Tsing Yi a little unhappy, but this ancient tomb was originally ownerless, which does not mean that other people born there cannot touch it. The world of cultivators is the law of the jungle, and if they want to obtain the resources of cultivation, they can only rely on their own fists to fight for it, and other methods are just as naïve and ridiculous as children.
The surrounding whispers were as noisy as the chirping of summer cicadas, and Ye Xuan didn't pay attention to them. His gaze looked at the hill in front of him, and to be precise, there was a moss-covered stone door where the hill came into contact with the earth.
There seems to be a little dirt left on the stone gate, which must have been buried in the soil layer before, and then slowly revealed due to the rain. There was a purple streamer circulating above the stone door, and there were several pools of red blood under the stone door, and there was a handle of a weapon next to it. From the discussion of the people around him just now, Ye Xuan had already guessed some clues.
These people should have wanted to break open this stone door with brute force, but they were corroded into a pool of blood by the purple venom on the stone door, and even the weapons were corroded and melted, which shows how fierce this poison is. However, the color of the purple venom on the stone gate is getting weaker and weaker, and it should disappear completely in a short time, when these people will flock in.
In Ye Xuan's perception, there seemed to be fluctuations in the Spirit Realm Array remaining above the stone gate, and these purple venoms should be able to circulate evenly on the stone gate by relying on the Spirit Realm Array. However, the Spirit Realm Array seemed to have been damaged after a long period of wind and rain, or some changes in the terrain in the hills, which caused the purple venom to no longer be able to operate in a circular manner, and could only slowly drain to the ground.
The stone gate was also corroded by the purple venom because of the lack of the Spirit Array, and the surface became pitted, which affected the senses. And judging from the fact that there was a drop of dirt next to the stone gate, someone should have gone in, but it came out quickly. Maybe he found that the Spirit Realm Array had temporarily stagnated, and the stone gate suddenly opened a gap, but soon the Spirit Realm Array suddenly seemed to be running for a short time under the corrosion of purple venom, and he was afraid that the stone gate would close, so he came out immediately. These traces should have been left by the person who had died in a miserable state before.
Time passed minute by minute, the purple venom on the stone gate gradually disappeared almost, when the last drop of purple venom dripped down under the "eagerness" of everyone, everyone in front of the stone gate became agitated at this moment, one by one's expressions became tense, and the mysterious qi in the body was also running all the way. Everyone wanted to be the first to enter the ancient tomb, and they all wanted to be the first to get the treasures in the ancient tomb, so anxious, as if they were afraid that they would be robbed of the treasures in it after entering so late.
Finally, everyone couldn't hold back the greed in their hearts and the fiery color of the treasures stored in the ancient tomb, and immediately raised their guns and went into battle, swarming towards the stone gate, and all kinds of swords and axes slashed at the stone gate. The stone gate, which was already on the verge of shattering, could still withstand such a ferocious attack, collapsed in an instant, and the rubble flew and the dust and smoke filled the air.
Those people were like locusts crossing the border, directly facing the gate of the stone gate and quickly pouring in, walking a little slower, directly pushed down by the rear, trampling on the body and running wildly, suddenly screaming and chaotic.
Ye Xuan and the others did not rush in, but waited for the opportunity, and the other two teams of centaurs did not enter the stone gate in a hurry, because the dangerous mechanisms inside, or some hidden weapons that could kill people, always needed a bird to poke them out, they just needed to follow behind and enjoy their achievements.
When the degree of chaos had weakened a lot, Zhang Feng waved his palm, "Go!" Ye Xuan and the others followed closely behind, swept towards the stone gate, and the other two teams of people and horses also stormed out at this moment.
The tomb had been calm for a long time, and it was broken!
