Chapter 94: The Emperor's Tomb
The thirteenth floor of the Ten Thousand Realms Tower is innumerable, even if there is a map in the jade slip, Xia Mu's journey is also extremely dangerous.
Just now, he suffered a dark loss, and was chased and killed by a group of sub-elite ironclad ants, if it weren't for the fact that he practiced the Taixu Cloud Step and fled into the air, I'm afraid he would have to explain here.
After this battle, he had to become more and more cautious, always running to restrain his qi, blood and spiritual power fluctuations, and reduce his speed to six or seven percent.
A halberd killed a sub-elite-level poisonous scorpion, and Xia Mu stood on the crown of an ancient tree in the sky, staring into the distance.
Ahead, the mountains are fading, replaced by ancient ruins, ruins, and collapsed ancient buildings.
"This is the ruins of the ancient tomb that occupies the center of the thirteenth layer of heaven?"
Without further hesitation, he drifted forward and began to sweep towards the ruins.
According to the records in the jade slips, in the ruins of this ancient tomb, there is a mysterious force that makes the fierce beasts of the thirteenth layer of heaven stay away from this place. Therefore, compared to the outside world, the ruins of this ancient tomb will not encounter danger from fierce beasts.
However, Xia Mu already didn't believe the information recorded in the jade slip, so even if he entered this ruin, he maintained a cautious and cautious attitude, until he walked for half a day and didn't encounter any fierce beasts, he let out a heavy breath and began to look at the surrounding environment.
Looking around, Xia Mu found that even though the collapsed ancient buildings around him were damaged, there was no sign of weathering, and it seemed that there was really an invisible force guarding this place secretly, so that everything remained the original shattered scene.
Carrying Changsheng behind him, Xia Mu walked towards the depths of the ruins of the ancient tomb.
Along the way, from day to night, Xia Mu didn't know how many miles he walked, and finally approached the deepest part of the ruins, where the sense of desolation and decline was even worse, and even a skeleton had begun to appear on the ground, the ethnic groups were different, there were human and animal shapes, the small ones were only a few feet high, and the big ones were as magnificent as mountains, if it weren't for Xia Muteng's clear view from the sky, it would be impossible to imagine what kind of race group could have such a huge size.
Xia Mu's expression was solemn, as he continued to go deeper, the breath of life around him gradually decreased, there were more and more dilapidated ancient buildings and bones, and the dead air became more and more intense, and there was a cold aura permeating the surroundings, like the cold wind blowing in autumn, which made people shiver.
"Woo......"
A trumpet sound like a human cry came from the depths of the ruins, and Xia Mu climbed a fierce beast skeleton the size of a small mountain and looked forward. The thirteenth layer of the heavenly core recorded in the jade slip is in front of it, and the ancient buildings are densely packed, although they have all collapsed and turned into ruins, but you can vaguely imagine the glory of this place in the past.
"Then the Holy Dynasty Emperor won't move the entire Holy Dynasty to this thirteenth layer heaven before he dies!" Xia Mu had such an idea inexplicably in his heart.
But the most surprising thing is still behind, in the center of the endless ancient buildings, a number of tombstones as high as 100 zhang stand there, actually enclosing a magnificent ancient hall with a crystal body in the center.
The number of tombstones that cannot be seen at a glance stands around this ancient hall, which makes people feel very strange.
At this moment, Xia Mu's expression became more and more solemn, because at the top of those tombstones, there were already figures standing on them, and in the distance, there was still the sound of breaking wind.
This made Xia Mu a little helpless, the exploration of generations of people has made all the sects and sects already know the place with the most treasures in the thirteen layers, so after entering the thirteen layers of heaven, they all rushed here non-stop, so that before Xia Mu arrived, more and more Tianjiao people had gathered here.
And when Xia Mu appeared here, the figures standing on the tombstone were also aware of his appearance, and immediately looked at him with a look of vigilance.
"Hehe, another master of the Eagle Man List has arrived, it seems that it will not be long before the masters of the entire thirteenth layer of heaven will rush here. ”
"Dongzhou Qiankun Tianjiao Xia Mu, ranked seven hundred and twelve, I didn't expect this son to arrive here so quickly, it seems that the rumors that he was lucky to defeat Song Jiangshan are not credible. ”
Obviously, these sects of Tianjiao who rushed here first were not simple, and many of them recognized Xia Mu at a glance, as for those who pointed out Xia Mu's identity, the meaning of their actions was even more worth pondering.
Swish!
But at this moment, their expressions moved, and they looked solemnly in the direction of the east, where a burly and sturdy figure was slowly walking out of the shadows, carrying a huge silver axe on its back, it was the Yanhuang tribe Tianjiao Xu Yang.
Xu Yang first glanced at the figures around him, then turned his head to look at Xia Mu, nodded in silence and flew into the air on a tombstone, sitting not far from Xia Mu.
And with the appearance of Xu Yang, the atmosphere of this world has become completely dignified, and the strength of the five hundred and sixty-three on the Young Eagle List is not just talking, it is enough to deter many people here.
"Woo......"
The palpitating horn sound came out again, Xia Mu heard it clearly, this sound actually came from the ancient hall, it was crystal clear, surrounded by the tombstone forest in the center, not only did not have the slightest darkness and coldness, but there was a holy breath flowing, and at the same time, there were spirits rising to the sky, covering the entire sky.
And the closest to this ancient hall is the Holy Maiden of the Great Desert Desert Dao Sect standing at the forefront of the tombstone forest, and she is also the nominal strongest person who has entered the Ten Thousand Realms Tower this time, Xue Lingyun, who is ranked five hundred and seventeen on the Eagle Man List.
This woman's true background is even half-understood by Feng Qingyun, the master of the Qiankun Sacred Academy, and can only deduce from her past experience of fighting people that the other party's strength is extremely strong, not weaker than the strongest descendants of those top forces in the Middle Continent.
Of course, Xue Lingyun is not the only existence, not far behind her, there are nearly dozens of masters on the list, all of whom are Tianjiao of various sects, most of whom have had one or several relationships with Xia Mu on the Two Realms Mountain.
For example, the two brothers of the Canghai Ice Valley, Han Haoran and Han Xiaotian, who were ranked 545 and 546 on the list, and Chen Yi of the Yunhai Kingdom of Tianzhou and Jun Haochen of the Yunlan Sect, as well as Li Yan of the Tianhuo Sect, etc.
Each of them was a well-known person from various domains, and now all of them were gathered here, which is enough to show the strong attraction of the ancient hall.
At this moment, these masters of the list firmly occupied the front of this tombstone forest, and were nervously staring at the ancient hall in the most central area.
At this time, Xia Mu finally found Boya, and he sighed. At this moment, there are Tang Guo Tang Lei and others beside Boya, and with the cooperation of several people, they also have a place in front of the tombstone forest.
It can be said that, except for a small number of people, all the masters of the Young Eagle List who have entered the Tower of Ten Thousand Realms are gathered here at this moment.
"Woo......"
There was a low sound of horns in the ancient hall again, and then the enveloping area of those spiritual glows that had originally risen to the sky suddenly expanded, making the night completely turn into day at this moment.
At this moment, the sky was full of spiritual glow, and the light gates were directly condensed from the void, revealing a faint spatial fluctuation.
In front of the tombstone forest, Xue Lingyun, Han Haoran and others all had spiritual light all over their bodies, slowly approaching forward. At the same time, those sect Tianjiao who were sitting on the periphery also got up from the tombstones one by one, and there was a blazing light flashing in their eyes, ready to move.
"It seems that the tomb of the Emperor of this Holy Dynasty is about to be opened. Xu Yang lowered his voice, now that as time passed, the tomb of the Emperor of the Holy Dynasty was slowly opening, and the light gates condensed from the void were the passages to enter the Emperor's tomb, each light gate only allowed one person to pass through, and would randomly teleport people to any place in the emperor's tomb.
Hearing this, Xia Mu nodded, about everything in this emperor's tomb, there is also a detailed record in the jade slip, although no one knows where the emperor's tomb is connected to the light gate, but according to the experience of the ancestors of the past dynasties, all those who enter the emperor's tomb will initially be randomly teleported to the outermost part of the emperor's tomb, and then through many dangerous places, and finally be able to reach the core of the emperor's tomb.
And it is rumored that in the depths of the core of the Emperor's Tomb, there is the natal holy treasure of the Emperor of the Holy Dynasty, an Imperial Dragon Seal that is enough to suppress the luck of the Great Sect of the Sect.
It's just that in these countless years of opening, because no one has ever been able to break into the depths of the core of this emperor's tomb, there are many people who have doubts about the authenticity of this rumor.
However, there is no doubt that even if no one can confirm the authenticity of this rumor, the goal of all the Tianjiao who entered this emperor's tomb is undoubtedly to break into the depths of the core of this emperor's tomb and get a glimpse of it.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Emperor's Tomb has been opened, and our two brothers will take the lead. With a flash of figure, Han Haoran and Han Xiaotian from the Canghai Ice Valley unfolded into the two light gates at great speed, disappearing without a trace, and with the disappearance of the two of them, the two light gates also dissipated in a flash of light.
Whew!
With these two people taking the lead, the Tianjiao of the various sects in the tombstone forest also spread out one by one and swept towards the light gate they had chosen.
"Brother Xu, there will be a period later. ”
With a flash of figure, Xia Mu also rushed into one of the light gates and disappeared without a trace.
In that instant, when Xia Mu passed through the light gate, he clearly felt that at that moment, a teleportation force appeared outside his body.
It was this power of teleportation that caused him to disappear from the tombstone forest and teleport into the outer part of the emperor's tomb.
When his gaze returned to clarity, Xia Mu looked around suddenly, and at this glance, his brows suddenly furrowed.
He was now in a tomb passage made of stones, which was very large, about six or seven zhang wide, and even more astonishingly high, about dozens of zhang. On the stone walls on both sides, you can see exquisite reliefs everywhere, even after hundreds of thousands of years, these reliefs are still intact without a trace of weathering.
At this time, these reliefs release a faint spiritual light, reflecting the passage of the tomb as bright as day.
But what attracted Xia Mu's attention the most was the bones of a monk lying horizontally and vertically in the passage. Looking at their posture before they died, some killed each other, some were attacked and died, and some were eaten by unknown creatures, leaving only some bones.
These monks should be the sect Tianjiao who broke into the emperor's tomb in the past, and some of the bones even have a sect nameplate representing their identity next to them.
Xia Mu didn't worry about these guys, after all, they had been dead for hundreds of years, and they couldn't die anymore.
However, when Xia Mu stepped over these bones, a sudden change occurred!
