What appeared in front of Ye Feng and the others was an empty hall.

The round-vaulted hall, thirty meters high and fifty meters in diameter, resembles an inverted dome.

The most wonderful thing is not the white marble floor, inlaid with jade. It's not a wall covered in gold dust with colorful Buddhist murals. Not around the corner, there are hundreds of exquisite and gorgeous gilded Buddha statues in that circle. Rather, in the center of the ceiling, a beam of warm light that seemed to penetrate the soul was sloping down from a two-meter-wide circular hole.

The hall is actually connected to the outside and brings in sunlight from the top of the mountain. That ray of sunlight sprinkled in the hall, reflecting the entire hall with golden brilliance, full of sacred and solemn atmosphere.

The vines that climb all over the four walls and the long thin branches that rush down from the edge of the skylight not only reduce the charm, but also add a bit of mysterious command, adding a strong sense of history to the hall. Buddha statues, sunlight, vines, and solemn murals make everyone feel the artistic conception of the unity of heaven and man.

Directly below the skylight, where the coffin of King Jiang Xituo was originally placed, there was a huge vine plant, and more than a dozen huge vines with a diameter of more than 1.5 meters grew together, wrapping the coffin inside, and vaguely revealing some corners.

"I estimate that the light inlet above should be naturally formed, and King Jiang Xituo estimates that he discovered such a wonderful cave, thinking that he could use the light of heaven to transcend the soul and sublimate into a Buddha, so he traveled thousands of miles to the Savage Valley to build a mausoleum." Bai Zhanji straightened his eyes, looked at the hall and sighed.

The crowd scattered through the hall and watched the real thing with great interest.

"Gu, Brother Gu, there are man-eating flowers here!" Suddenly, Bai Xiaofei's face suddenly turned pale, he took a few steps back, and said in a frightened trembling voice.

His trembling arms pointed to a corner of the hall.

Bai Zhanji and the others twitched in their hearts, and turned their heads to look at what he was pointing.

At this moment, the light in the hall suddenly dimmed, and it seemed that something obscured the vision.

Bai Zhanji and the others only felt a chill above their heads, and when they looked up, they saw a huge red bud like the head of a truck erecting its body under the eyes of the sky, and its big mouth full of sharp teeth opened and closed slightly, facing everyone, as if it was a poisonous snake looking at its prey.

With a rustling sound, several vines as large as Optimus Prime straightened up, and the top of them were buds full of sharp teeth. More than a dozen huge man-eating flowers appeared around Bai Zhanji and the others, their big mouths open and closed, and their heads bent.

Bai Zhanji's hearts were so cool and cool that they finally knew what was going on with the vines raging in the mausoleum, and they felt that this was a super giant man-eating flower! The largest bud in the center is a locomotive, Nima, it's not enough for us to stuff its teeth, right?

The vines in the hall also came to life one after another, rolling towards Ye Feng and the others like the tentacles of the giant octopus.

More than a dozen man-eating flowers, with their mouths wide open, fell like a giant bowl towards Ye Feng and the five of them.

"Mom, help!"

Bai Zhanji and the four of them instinctively screamed, closed their eyes and shrunk their necks.

The brains were blank, half-loud, and there was no imaginary movement, and the four of them opened their eyes, only to see the man-eating flower rubbing itself with its petals like a puppy, and slowly retracted.

Only then did the four of them remember that there was a strange person in their team who could control plants. Turning his head to look, he saw Ye Feng smiling and stroking the petals of the largest man-eating flower with his palm, as if he was stroking a pet. Bai Zhanji and the others saw something incredible, the man-eating flower actually showed a look of enjoyment - it is difficult to describe how a flower showed such a demeanor, but it did give Bai Zhanji and the others that feeling.

The feeling is like the feeling of a kitten and a puppy closing their eyes comfortably and tamely under the gentle caress of their owners.

Ye Feng looked at Bai Zhanji and the others and smiled slightly: "Don't be afraid, it's just saying hello to you." ”

Your sister, this greeting is too scary・・・・・・ Bai Zhanji and the others had cold faces, full of resentment. The four of them all believed that Ye Feng was deliberate, and they could control these man-eating flowers, but they also deliberately scared them.

In fact, Ye Feng still had some difficulty controlling this super giant man-eating flower.

Ye Feng was surprised to find that this man-eating flower actually had its own simple consciousness.

This is not a big deal, although it is simply not much more developed than insects, but it means that this giant man-eating flower is qualitatively different from ordinary plants.

Ordinary predatory plants, such as the well-known pitcher plant, also have only a reactive ability to react, similar to the conditioned emission of animals, which is uncontrollable and responds to stimuli as soon as they appear. But this giant man-eating flower is different, it has the ability to distinguish prey like a bee, and can also think simply, and respond differently to different situations.

Through the perspective of mental power, Ye Feng found that the number of "neuro-like cells" in the body of this giant man-eating flower was far more than that of ordinary man-eating flowers encountered in the forest outside the mausoleum, and the neuro-like cells gathered to form many ganglia-like existences. Near its roots, there are a large number of neuro-like cells forming a nerve center tissue, similar to the existence of animal brains, and it is estimated that the existence of this nerve center makes this giant man-eating flower have a simple consciousness.

It is precisely with the sense of autonomy that although it is simple, it also has a certain resistance to Ye Feng's control. Coupled with its huge size, Ye Feng had to devote most of his attention to controlling it.

After checking, Ye Feng found that this man-eating flower was more than six hundred years old, and what was even more incredible was that it contained a large amount of life essence in its body. Ye Feng had a feeling that this giant man-eating flower was the ancestor of all the man-eating flowers in the forest outside, and it was the "mother". And it should be the "demon king who occupies the tomb of the first king" in the records of the ancients of Bagan.

The giant man-eating flower must have appeared after the mausoleum was built, and there must have been no such plant as a man-eating flower in the Savage Valley before, otherwise King Jiang Xituo would not have successfully built his mausoleum here, and there was no record of it in the previous history. That is to say, the man-eating flower is a new species that suddenly appeared・・・・・・・ in Ye Feng's understanding, there is only one kind of power that can create a new species in just a few hundred years, and that is [genetic mutation].

However, the probability of genetic mutations in nature is extremely low. The occurrence of such a mutation as "animal diet" is extremely rare. Generally speaking, ultraviolet rays, radiation, viruses, chemical poisons, etc. can cause genetic mutations in organisms, and the probability of naturally occurring mutations can be regarded as almost zero.

Ye Feng had a strong feeling that there must be some mysterious power in the mausoleum that would cause such an incredible mutant as the giant man-eating flower to appear.

It's incredible to have a simple nervous system similar to that of an insect.

Among the group, only Ye Feng, who had deeply studied biological knowledge, understood the huge biological value of the giant man-eating flower.

Trying to communicate with the cannibal flower, Ye Feng was surprised to find that in the consciousness of the cannibal flower, there seemed to be a very important thing that was protected by it among the vines at the roots.

Judging from the location, it seems that such a thing is located in the coffin of King Jiang Xituo.

"Could it be that the thing that caused the mutation of the cannibal flower is a funeral item of King Jiang Xituo?"

Ye Feng suddenly had such an absurd thought in his heart.

"Third uncle, King Jiang Xituo's treasure won't be like this, right? Could it be that all his treasure was used to build this damn mausoleum? Bai Xiaofei looked around, except for some golden Buddhas and jade, he didn't find any special treasures, and couldn't help but be disappointed.

"You know what. Everything here is an antique, and any one of them can be bought for millions. Bai Zhanji glanced at him and continued to study the artifacts in the hall with relish.

Gao Luck and Man Renfei opened their backpacks, picked out valuable things to put inside, and even used knives to buckle off the jadeite embedded in the floor and walls.

"You guys, you're in a hurry. How could the king of a country rich in jadeite and precious stones be a funerary object. Ye Feng glanced at the four tomb robbers with disdain. The real treasure he had already discovered, hidden behind a wall, there was a dark room. A room full of gold, jade, and a few boxes full of large gems.

However, Ye Feng was not in a hurry to get the treasure, his spiritual power carefully probed the coffin of King Jiang Xituo and found a very interesting thing.

"Discover the 'Crystallization of Life'."

The long-lost system prompt suddenly appeared in Ye Feng's mind.

"The crystallization of life? What? ”

Sensing Ye Feng's doubts, the system explained: "Life crystal: In the universe, the special crystal formed by the condensation of cosmic energy by the spirit and vitality of a powerful life form after the death of a powerful life form contains powerful life energy, which can greatly enhance the life energy of the user and promote the huge evolution of the life body. ”

In Ye Feng's spiritual power perception, an irregular spar that exuded an eternal milky white light was quietly placed in the coffin of King Jiang Xituo, placed above the heavenly spirit cover of the corpse, as if the deceased believed that he could have some special effect on the soul. But sadly, the vines of the cannibal flower that appeared at some point had already broken the coffin, and the rhizome went deep into it, wrapping the hedron around. The bones of a generation of famous monarchs have long been torn to pieces by strong vines.

Ye Feng's mind moved, and the rhizome of the giant man-eating flower was unwound layer by layer, and a rhizome wrapped around the milky white spar that had been identified as [Life Crystal] by the system and stretched out in front of Ye Feng. Ye Feng stretched out his hand to pick this lychee-sized life crystal, and the spar was smooth and comfortable to use, with a hint of warmth.

"The crystallization of life・・・・・・ is it the 'culprit' that caused the appearance of man-eating plants?"

Ye Feng thought silently with a shocked look.
