I went down to the cave, and I didn't go far, and sure enough, I saw a diamond wall closed by a stone bar, but it had been reopened. The main tomb passage leading to the bottom is revealed.

Huang Chang looked at the carvings and murals on both sides of the tomb, and sure enough, it was from the Yin Shang period - the style of sculpture and painting was very similar to the Pangeng Tomb he had seen. That is, at that time, people liked to build such a large tomb, and after the Zhou Dynasty Shang, in addition to the southern Chu State and other places still retained the tradition of thick burials, the Zhou in the west, and the Qilu states in the east were relatively much more frugal in this regard.

He spiraled down the tomb road, stopping from time to time to admire the reliefs of the frescoes on either side—he had dark vision, and he didn't have to rely on light sources such as lanterns and torches, so he could see everything in front of him clearly.

The air below was filthy, and if it weren't for an immortal cultivator like Huang Chang, ordinary people would probably be suffocated before they were halfway there. However, the cultivator has his own means, and if he has a pill in his mouth to ward off poison and disease, he can resist most of the poisonous smoke and miasma. As long as it is not particularly powerful, it can affect the aura of the monks, and it can be obtained everywhere in the world.

The size of this tomb is not small, but of course it cannot be compared with the Imperial Tomb. Therefore, in Huang Chang's feelings, it seems that he has reached the end of his journey in a short time, where the main hall is. This is the temple of sacrifice. It is also the last place that can be reached by living people who come to worship outside under "normal conditions".

The layout of this tomb is very similar to that of Pangeng Tomb, but the scale is much smaller. The layout is naturally much simpler, but Huang Chang can still see that there is a formation of the eight gates of life and death. Moreover, not surprisingly, the two seals belonging to the "Death Gate" and the "Ghost Gate" were destroyed, and the black hole of the stone gate was open, exuding an ominous aura.

"Ha, sure enough, it was a layman!"

With just one glance, Huang Chang could roughly guess how the disaster happened back then - in the Yin Shang Mausoleum, the main sacrificial hall would open many portals to the surrounding areas, leading to different locations. Depending on the size of the tomb type, the number of portals varies. The level of Pangengling is the highest level, and there are thirty-two Dao. And this mausoleum is obviously much worse, there are only eight paths.

But no matter how many portals there are, as long as Yin Shang builds tombs, the four portals of "living and dead, people and ghosts" must be there. The "birth gate" is the portal through which people enter from the outside, and the human gate leads to the lower tomb. And the door of death and the door of ghosts are also necessary - the door of death is closed to the tomb builders of the year, most of whom were buried alive. Using its sky-high resentment, it turns into a corpse demon and exists as the protector of the tomb.

As for the inside of the ghost gate, there is an altar, where the sacrifices that were killed during the construction of the tomb are refined into ghosts, and they travel around the mausoleum to maintain the operation of the mausoleum, which can be called the "engine" of the Yin Shang mausoleum.

——The first step in building a mausoleum for Yin Shang is to build an altar and offer sacrifices to seek the protection of gods and ghosts. No matter how big the project is, the last step must be to close the door of death and bury all the builders alive in the mausoleum. On the one hand, it protects the secrets of the mausoleum, and on the other hand, it is also a final sacrifice to the soul of the mausoleum. Therefore, the "Ghost Gate" and the "Death Gate" represent the end and end of the mausoleum, with a beginning and an end.

If you want to completely destroy a Yin Shang mausoleum, you have to destroy all the contents of these two portals. But generally no one does that, because the gains outweigh the losses. Most tomb robbers are "well-behaved", as long as they try to find the door of the person, go directly to the tomb and get the burial goods. Who has nothing to do to open the second door of the dead ghosts, but they have to compete with a large group of corpse demons and ghosts, which is a purely thankless task.

- However, this mausoleum happened to meet a guy who didn't know how to do it, and actually opened the two doors of the dead ghost. Huang Chang could almost imagine the scene when those tomb robbers rushed to pry open the stone door, hoping to find gold and silver treasures, only to see a large group of corpses and undead gushing out from behind, and finally they were overwhelmed because they didn't have time to escape...... Therefore, in these years, everything must be done with technology, and this is the end of digging and smashing without knowing the rules, and engaging in illegal demolition.

When I was in a reverie with some kind of schadenfreude, I suddenly noticed movement in a corner of the tomb, and a few black shadows slowly crawled up - but it was a few zombies, usually dormant, and they stood up to find their target when they felt the breath of the living. Judging from the way he was dressed, he seemed to be a warrior or a tomb robber, and he should have come down here after that incident, wanting to make some gains, but unfortunately he was unlucky.

It's only been more than ten years, and even if you turn into a zombie, it won't be very strong. Slowly and stupidly, Huang Chang could kill it with a flick of his fingers, but after thinking about it, he didn't do it, but quietly bypassed a few steps, so that those stupid things couldn't reach him, and that's it.

- He needs these guys to help him guard the door.

After walking a few steps, I entered the "ghost gate", and the portal was full of bones, not only human, but also all kinds of animals - all of them were sacrificed as tribute. According to ancient customs, the rarer and stranger the tribute during the sacrifice, the more it can win the favor of the demon spirits.

However, Huang Chang looked around, there was nothing special, and it was estimated that someone would have taken it away. In addition to human bones, there are nothing more than cattle, horses, pigs and sheep, piled up throughout the room.

Pushing aside the heavy broken bones and corpses, I saw a set of sacrificial circles drawn on the ground, which was used to transform the sacrificial objects into demon souls. Although it has been a thousand years, it can still be seen that it is covered with a thick layer of dark brown blood mud, and I don't know how many tribute sacrifices have howled and died here, and there is still a fierce aura rushing towards the face, even the zombies outside dare not approach.

But on the magic circle, several huge cracks are also very obvious - as the root and core of the entire mausoleum, the monks of the Ji family must have destroyed the magic circle when they quelled the demon rebellion. It's just that the destruction is not very complete, and the Ji family is not good at demon arts, and there is no research on this kind of sacrificial array, so only a few cuts in the core array are completed, so that it cannot be operated, and it is not dug up or completely broken.

In the past ten years, although there have been people who have come to explore and adventure to find a bargain, no one will be interested in this destroyed array disk, so Huang Chang estimated that it should still be there, and at this time he came to take a look, and it was really the case.

"Hehe, it's really good luck, this array of broken plates is not too bad, and you can still use it if you make up for it......"

——The magic circle for refining ghosts and ghosts and the magic circle for refining yin attribute magic weapons are still the same in some of the underlying rules. Based on this, with a little modification, Huang Chang's needs can be met.

Huang Chang made a special trip to find this place, and it is precisely for this reason that he came.
