Chapter 44, The Ancient Tomb Emperor

The water flowed, but Sikong Wu still slashed his arm quickly and tried to sneak forward as quickly as possible.

Han Yun and others all used their soul power to hold their breath and sneaked in. Although they could barely see the location of everyone in the dark waterway.

The water flow soon became smooth, and a faint light came from above. Sikong Wu was surprised. It was estimated that he would have only sneaked for five or six hundred meters at most. How could he encounter light so quickly? The entrance to Fairy Lake is not so close.

However, Fairy Spring is the exit of the ancient tomb waterway, just Sikong Wu's estimate. Maybe the water flow of the ancient tomb will still flow back to the underground river, and I don't know where to go. Now when I see a faint light coming from above my head, Sikong Wu naturally will not continue to sneak, but will quickly move upstream.

Lei Meng and Han Yun were still following Sikong Wu at this time, protecting Sikong Wu. When they saw Sikong Wu sneaking up, they also followed him.

When I saw the water, I couldn't help but startle Sikong, and the black void was dotted on it.

After a closer look, Sikong Wu was even more shocked. What kind of void is there? It is clearly a cave. Those that emit little starlight are obviously extremely rare star stones!

The Star Stone not only can shine automatically, but it is like a star, but also an excellent material for refining armored horoscopes. It is said that it is the star fragments flying from the sky, with value equal to gold and extremely precious.

Sikong Wu knew that the star fragments flying out of the sky were probably meteorites, but even the earth had never heard of meteorites emitting dazzling light. When Sikong Wu came here, he had read the description of this star stone from the collection of books. He could not have seen so many star stones in this underground cave. After a moment, he was afraid that there were not as many as a thousand or hundreds of them embedded on the top of the dark cave, which made Sikong Wu have the first illusion that it was the real starry sky.

Han Yun and others who came up were stunned. They knew the value of these star stones better than Sikong Wu. A small amount of star stones mixed into the weapons made of ordinary steel will increase the sharpness several times, which can better guide soul power and increase the power of attack.

It is precisely because of the characteristics of Star Stone that it has become a good material for the soul sacrificial and refining weapon. If you have a soul weapon that is completely refined by the Star Essence, it can even be cultivated into the soul beasts in your body, making the soul weapon stronger and stronger, so that the human and military unity will be integrated, and it will be no problem to cut mountains and rivers!

Just as everyone was shocked, a scream suddenly woke Sikong Wu and others up.

Sikong Wu subconsciously turned his head and saw that a black shadow instantly wrapped around Zou Ruoyuan. In the blink of an eye, he saw blood spreading. Zou Ruoyuan's face looked extremely painful, but he couldn't scream. The throat and neck were bitten by small black things and bloody.

After three breaths, Zou Ruoyuan, who was originally alive, instantly turned into a white bone under the bite of the black shadow and sank to the bottom of the water!

Sikong Wu saw several black shadows suddenly appearing under the water, and swam towards them at a speed. His scalp suddenly became numb and he swam to the shore in vain!

Zou Ruoyuan is also a sixth-grade martial artist. His soul power cannot stop the devourment of those dark things. Even if it is replaced by Sikong Wu, he will not have any resistance. The soul armor can protect the vital points of his chest and abdomen, and it will be of no use to these small things.

Lei Meng and Han Yun's soul power burst out at an extremely fast speed, and almost left the water when the shadows were wrapped around.

The shadow chasing Sikong Wu and others turned around quickly and surrounded Jiang Haihui, who was still in the water.

Hearing Jiang Haihui screaming, Lei Meng's face changed drastically. He pulled out his belt and waved it. He crossed one foot away, wrapped around Jiang Haihui's wrist and pulled it hard, pulling Jiang Haihui up.

Unfortunately, in this moment, Jiang Haihui's feet were already covered in blood, revealing their bones, and even biting dozens of disgusting things like loaches.

This strange loach is only one inch long and the size of a chopstick, but an extremely ferocious and terrifying sharp thorn appeared in a small mouth. It was pulled out of the water and kept opening its sharp teeth, quickly biting Jiang Haihui's feet!

Lei Meng couldn't help but snorted angrily, and his soul power suddenly rushed towards Jiang Haihui's feet, sweeping away the black monsters, but the tiny monsters had a strong resistance. Even though they left Jiang Haihui's feet, they still jumped alive and did not be affected by Lei Meng's soul power.

Lei Meng was shocked and swung the dagger several times in a row before he cut these strange loach monsters into two pieces!

Sikong Wu and Han Yun were both afraid that this thing was so fierce on the shore and had no fear of soul power. If it came to the water, let alone Sikong Wu, I am afraid that even an eighth-rank martial emperor like Zhu Tian would not be able to withstand it!

Jiang Haihui is also a famous tough guy in Wuwei Marquis Mansion, but his face turned pale and his head covered with sweat. He said with his teeth tightly: "Lei Gong... kill me! Hurry... it hurts..."

Lei Meng's eyes turned and he was shocked to see Jiang Haihui's feet rotting in dismay, and black water kept flowing out. It was obvious that those loach monsters contained extremely strong toxins!

His eyes narrowed, and the dagger pierced Jiang Haihui's heart like lightning. Then he twisted and twitched, and a stream of blood spurted out three feet away. However, he saw Jiang Haihui's eyes showing a relief and slowly closed his eyes!

"Why don't you try to remove toxins for him?" Sikong Wu looked at Lei Meng with his fists clenched.

Lei Meng shook his head: "It's useless, he is a corpse poison!"

Sikong Wu's eyes cracked and he cursed fiercely: "Damn it, what is this!"

Lei Meng's face darkened, and an extremely solemn look appeared in his eyes. Looking at the black shadows that were like snakes and pythons, constantly wandering in the water and refused to retreat, he said in a deep voice: "If you read it right, this should be a bone-eroding corpse worm!"

"The bone-eroding corpse worm is said to be something that escapes from hell. It relies on the dead energy to survive, likes to devour the flesh and blood of living creatures, grow in the most yin dead place, sharp teeth and sharpness contain strange poisons. Once attached by this demon worm, it will step into the underworld with one foot and it will be difficult to escape!"

"The survival place of bone-eroded corpse insects is extremely harsh and has long been extinct. It is said that only the corpse pit pool where more than 10,000 people are buried can breed such strange poisonous insects. Could it be that tens of thousands of corpses were left in this pool?" Han Yun's face turned pale.

Lei Meng took a deep breath: "No wonder, the workers who built tombs in ancient times may be killed by the tomb owner to keep a secret. This place must be within the tomb, and there are crises everywhere. Let's find a way to leave here quickly!"

Thinking that the pond had left tens of thousands of corpses and stinking to cultivate these bone-eroding corpses, Sikong Wu couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body.

Leaving from the waterway, neither Sikong Wu nor Lei Meng would make this idea again. Those bone-eroding corpse worms would hide where they would be, and how many more would there be. If they went into the water, they would only provide the other party with a meal of meat.

The four of them took a deep breath, calmed their minds, and looked around. Only then did they find that the cave had obviously been carefully repaired, and the entire cave looked like a hall.

Lei Meng's face changed again.

"What did Mr. Lei find?" Sikong Wu asked tightly.

Lei Meng nodded: "I once followed the Marquis to the Golden Palace to pay homage to Emperor Qingtian. This cave is the arrangement of the Golden Palace."

"The platform here is Danbi, commonly known as the platform. Next to it is the sundial, Jialiang, copper turtle, copper crane and eighteen bronze tripods." Lei Meng pointed at a huge stone beam in the distance, "I saw the carvings on it, namely the phoenix immortal, the rooster kiss, the lion, the sky horse, the seahorse, the silhouette, the fish, the wisp, the bullfighting, and the sing. These ten poems can only be engraved by the emperor, but I have never heard of the imperial tombs in the Qingtian Empire. Could it be the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty? "

Everyone suppressed their shock. They never thought that this would be the imperial tomb. As they walked up the steps, they suddenly found a huge golden throne carved with dragons and phoenixes in the middle behind the cave. There were six giant pillars with golden cloud dragon patterns on both sides, and treasure elephants, cranes, and fragrant pavilions on both sides. A giant jade dragon poked out above the throne. The dragon head was lying down, holding a brilliant gem the size of a fist!

On the throne, there was a majestic old man wearing a five-clawed golden dragon robe and a seven-color golden crown sitting. He was looking at Sikong Wu and others with a divine eyes, which shocked Sikong Wu. He never thought that there was a living person in the stone cave!

Even the old Wu Emperor like Lei Meng was shocked and felt a terrible aura emanating from the old man in the dragon robe. Even his breathing became a little unsmooth. He couldn't help but subconsciously shouted: "Who are you!"
