Chapter 113: The Underground Palace Mausoleum

Chapter 113 The underground palace mausoleum does not extinguish the corpse spirit lamp, its body does not fall, its soul does not disperse, the underground palace does not destroy, and the corpse lamp does not extinguish.

Xiao Yun recalled that there was a record of this "Immortal Corpse Spirit Lamp" in the book he had read, and the book said that the Immortal Corpse Spirit Lamp was specially used to provide light for the tombs of the dead and strong. After the fall of the strong, their bodies and souls do not immediately decay and dissipate.

It takes a certain amount of time for the body to be corrupted and the soul to dissipate, but in comparison, the dissipation of the soul is much faster, and the soul can only be locked by special means, just like Mengxue's soul is sealed in an iron box.

If the deceased's dantian has not been destroyed and the power stored in it has not disappeared, the internal force, pulse power, spiritual power, and soul power cultivated by the deceased during his lifetime can still be reused for a long period of time.

The so-called Immortal Lamp operates using these energies.

After the fall of the strong, they generally build underground palaces, which are called mausoleums. And the craftsmen will do a good job of planning the entire underground palace at the beginning of the construction of the mausoleum, after all, the underground palace is a strong mausoleum buried deep underground, and a variety of different changes and factors need to be considered.

And the lights in the dungeon are one of the many factors that need to be considered. Since the development of the mausoleum, most of the craftsmen have found the best solution, that is, the two rows of "immortal corpse spirit lamps" in front of them.

This lamp is to use the small pipe dug in the mausoleum to guide the corpse qi in the body of the buried strong, and then ignite it for lighting in the underground palace, so it is called the immortal corpse spirit lamp. The so-called corpse qi actually refers to the various energy remaining in the body of the deceased.

A powerhouse above the Yuan Soul Realm can theoretically support all the immortal corpse spirit lamps in the entire tomb to burn non-stop for a full hundred years. Let's not talk about the Spirit Venerable Realm and Nirvana Realm above the Yuan Soul Realm, not to mention the fall of the powerhouses of the Kun God Realm and the Qianshen Realm......

Thinking of this, Xiao Yun couldn't help but feel chills all over his body, could it be that this was the mausoleum of a certain strong man? Or was the secret realm that the Yanhua Empire intended to occupy actually the burial place of a deceased mighty person? Looking ahead, he could even vaguely see streams of corpse gas coming out from under the lamp, and then being ignited, emitting a dim light.

Cracking sound.

Just as Xiao Yun's thoughts were flying, the corpse lamp beside him suddenly exploded, like the sound of a bamboo being burned. He hurriedly looked, only to see the flames rising and the air constantly bursting, with the potential of wildfires.

Looking at the stone lamp, and at the stone platform that was crushed by the iron box, he instantly understood, and quickly picked up a few fine stones from the ground, and stuffed them into the hole behind the stone platform. If it is not blocked, it is estimated that it will not be long before this corridor will be filled with corpse gas, so that it will be ignited by the corpse lamp, and it is estimated that it will be detonated instantly.

After blocking the hole, Xiao Yun patted his chest, and he was afraid for a while. I have long heard that there are many mechanisms in the underground palace mausoleum, and if you are not careful, it is easy to be buried here. Throughout the ages, I don't know how many powerful tomb robbers have died in their tombs because of their lack of strength.

That hole must be the pipe that directs corpse qi, and there must be one behind every stone platform, otherwise these lamps would not have burned for so long. Although the mausoleum will have vents, it is impossible for the gas to be replaced by ventilation ** for the corpse lamp to burn all year round.

Otherwise, there would be no such thing as an indestructible corpse lamp.

Xiao Yun really didn't expect that this secret realm turned out to be a dungeon mausoleum, but he didn't know who the owner of this dungeon was. And weren't Murong Qingcheng and Han Shan also teleported by the formation? Why can't you see the two of them here?

Putting away the doubts in his heart, he lifted the tin box and walked cautiously along the corridor. The sound of his footsteps echoed his heartbeat, making him feel an inexplicable palpitation. The thought of the light beside him was the burning corpse of a dead man, and he felt a pimple all over his body.

After walking ten zhang to the corner, there seemed to be no fork in this road, so Xiao Yun turned around with confidence and walked in. The arrangement of the corpse lamps here is different from before, there are two neat rows of attacking ten lights in front of it, but here there are only nine, and ten zhang in front of it is another corner, and there is one less one in the corner.

Xiao Yun didn't care, and continued to walk down the road.

When he turned the corner again, he turned left again, and this time he found that there were only eight corpse lamps left, and this road was only eight zhang long. He suddenly felt a little weird, and hurriedly turned around and wanted to go back, but it was okay not to turn around, and when he turned around, he was even more startled.

Behind...... Unexpectedly...... It turned out to be a wall.

Obviously turned from here just now, why was there no road but was blocked by a wall? Xiao Yun picked up the iron box and smashed it twice, and found that this wall was extremely solid, it should not be a hollow wall. That's weird, where did the road you just walked go to?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, but there was indeed no fork in the road on this road, would there be only seven corpse lamps left if he turned another corner?

Sure enough, after turning a corner, there were only seven corpse lamps left in the corridor ahead, and one was missing at the corner. Behind him was blocked by a wall again, and the way he came was gone.

Wouldn't there be no corpse lamp at the end?

With this in mind, he quickened his pace forward, turned, forward, and turned again.

Six.

Five.

......

One lamp.

Standing at the entrance of the Yongdao, this corridor is only two zhang long, and a faint corpse lamp flickering two zhang away, as if it will be extinguished at any time. As Xiao Yun expected, with every turn, there would be one less corpse lamp, and every time there was a turn, the corridor would be shortened by two feet.

Xiao Yun walked on the last two zhang long road, and suddenly he was a little afraid to take a step. He guessed in his heart that this last turn might be the exit, but who knows for sure what it really was? a way to live or a dead end...... He couldn't even know.

In the dead silence of the corridor, he could only hear his own footsteps and faint breathing, and his courage had been exhausted by turning again and again. He always kept the tin box horizontal in front of him in case of accidents.

In the last two zhang distance, Xiao Yun walked more carefully and more apprehensively than the ten zhang. His back was already soaked in cold sweat. Unable to know the specific situation of the underground palace mausoleum, his heart beat faster all the time, although he didn't believe in any ghosts and gods, but the age of less than sixteen made him instinctively afraid of this world.

The only immortal corpse spirit lamp not far in front of him became Xiao Yun's only guide at this time, and a strange smell slowly filled the air. Xiao Yun wasn't sure if it was an illusion or a reality. Oh, oh, oh, step by step on the floor tiles of the mausoleum, and the sound made actually stirred up the corpse lamp and swayed from side to side.

Finally reached the corner, turned around, fixed his eyes, and instantly gasped.
