Volume 1: The Realm of the Night, Chapter 87: The Coffin Sealed by Iron Chains, That Is Not a Human!
…
The Realm of Strange Night, at 11:32 pm, at the core of Xishan Mountain.
Under a collapsed mountain, there is a huge underground mausoleum, and it is unknown what is buried there.
Xu Mu and his team have been digging for a long time, and only the last bit is left to completely open the passage to the main tomb, so everyone can't help but work harder and harder.
"It's the last level, let's do it together!"
In the narrow passage where the Hokage was shaking, five people crowded together side by side. Xu Mu threw away the shovel, his eyes suddenly became sharp:
"Three, two, one, kick!"
When the last word was spoken, the five of them used all their strength to kick directly onto the thick earth wall almost simultaneously.
Boom!
With the fierce kick, the last layer of soil less than two meters thick was completely kicked away, and what came into view was a dark space.
Everyone looked happy and immediately rushed in, but they were held back by Zhang Sun Weiying and Xu Mu at the same time.
"Wait!", the two of them said at the same time, holding one person's hand.
"Be careful, there is danger. Usually there are mechanisms in this kind of mausoleum."
"Didn't the agency be touched by the previous group of people?"
Liu He held the torch and leaned half of his body out. He was a casual cultivator. For him, an opportunity of this level could change his life's destiny. But now someone was pulling him, how could he not be anxious.
"I didn't sense any special fluctuations. You can go and have a look."
Charles said, and Xu Mu breathed a sigh of relief:
"Let's go, it should be safe."
As he spoke, he released his left and right hands, and everyone rushed in immediately.
"What a big mausoleum."
Liu He and Xu Mu each held a torch in their hands. Liu He stepped into this space one step ahead of him. He had already walked dozens of meters away, but he still couldn't let the torch shine to the end. Even their words had a long echo.
The passage was filled with dust and sand, but it was extremely clean inside, as if all the dust had been swept away.
Xu Mu frowned, stepped into this space with a solemn face, and then drank softly.
"ha!"
Everyone was frightened by him, especially the two timid fat twins. They thought Xu Mu had suddenly gone crazy and was going to attack them before the opportunity came.
"The speed of sound is about 360 meters per second. I shouted loudly. The echoes at the farthest distance were six seconds and four seconds respectively. In other words, the length of this main mausoleum chamber is about one meter.
It is more than a thousand meters, about seven hundred meters wide, and even if it is thirty meters high, it is more than twenty square kilometers..."
Xu Mu ignored everyone's gazes and just silently calculated carefully in his heart.
Then, he was shocked by this number.
"Spreading out over twenty square kilometers, this is equivalent to 30,000 acres of land. The entire food production area in the Night Territory is probably not that large."
"If a complete ancient mausoleum is of this size, Xu Mu can still accept it. After all, Charles told him that there was an emperor's mausoleum on Blue Star, covering an area of more than fifty square kilometers.
But that’s also the total area.”
"These twenty square kilometers are just the main mausoleum. How big is this underground palace?"
…
"Have you noticed...this space seems to be getting brighter and brighter?"
Before Xu Mu could figure it out, Liu He, who had walked the farthest, put down the torch with a strange expression, because he found that this huge space seemed to slowly become brighter. Although it was still very dark compared to the daytime, it was indeed
Much brighter than before.
I don't know what the reason is, because there are no torches around, they just slowly light up, like the dim and dim light before the sun rises.
"There seems to be some special substance in space. I don't have the equipment to decompose it."
Charles said.
"There's definitely something weird about this place, it's disgusting."
Xu Mu became nervous inexplicably. What kind of unknown secrets did this large, bizarre, yet empty mausoleum hold?
"This this……"
The fat man had unfortunately tripped over something in the dark. It wasn't until the light came on that he saw clearly that they were several horrifying white bones!
"There are only bones left. It looks like it has been dead for many years."
His brother stepped forward, took a casual look, and then said.
"No, this corpse is indeed bones, but look at his body." Changsun Weiying discovered the clue. He squatted down, opened the pile of bones, and took out a brand new book from it.
"Luohe Daodian!"
The young man's eyes trembled. He knew this book. It was clearly a Taoist method developed by a third-stage superpower user in the Hunter Alliance over in his sea area. Why was it here?
"There are bones here too."
“It’s available here too!”
In a short while, several people found countless white bones in different places. All of them had only bones left and no flesh and blood, as if they had been dead for a long time.
Changsun Weiying's body felt numb, and he suddenly thought of something extremely terrifying. Could it be that these bones were not the people buried with him before, but the people with super powers who died here a few days ago?
"Thirty-one, thirty-two, thirty-three, thirty...four."
Xu Mu stood in the distance, his shadow power roaming freely in the mausoleum, and he could see all the bones clearly.
Thirty-four bones prove that thirty-four people died here.
Well... Chang Sun Weiying said before, how many people are there in the casual cultivator team?
Before Xu Mu had time to think about it, a huge roar appeared in the space in front of him.
"Boom, boom, boom...!"
The stone bricks in the entire underground palace were trembling, and everyone was shocked. At the same time, they looked forward and saw an altar-like high platform rising slowly, with a coffin sealed with iron chains dragging on it, wrapped around it countless times.
, it seems that there is something terrifying sealed inside.
Such a change stunned Xu Mu and the others. They looked at it solemnly or fearfully.
But there was only one person who still walked towards the altar as if he was possessed by a man possessed. The distance was only less than twenty steps.
"Stop, are you crazy?" Changsun Weiying tried to stop him, but the young man didn't respond at all. His body was like a puppet, moving continuously.
"It's a horse!" Changsun Weiying gritted his teeth, his eyes were as sharp as a goshawk, and his whole body was filled with supernatural powers, as if he was hesitating whether to step forward and stop him.
Xu Mu stared at the altar, feeling as if he was being attracted inexplicably. He was so frightened that he quickly looked away.
"That team was composed of casual cultivators, with a total of thirty-four people. After arriving at the core area of Xishan Mountain, they found a mausoleum. Entering here, it was connected in all directions, and they found many treasures."
"And when they opened a coffin sealed with iron chains, countless darkness spewed out. Almost everyone died here, except for one who ran fast and one survivor who did not go to the grave...
…”
Xu Mu lowered his head, remembering Zhang Sun Weiying's description, and filtered it from beginning to end, frowning.
He has been digging in this underground palace for a long time. He dug out all the side rooms and indeed found a lot of treasures.
But in those side tombs, whether they were coffins or boxes, they were all sealed and had not been opened.
But the problem is that in that story, those coffins and boxes should have been opened, and those casual cultivators obviously got very precious treasures.
Moreover, the coffin sealed with iron chains that the man mentioned was the only coffin they had ever encountered.
If it is said that in the end it was because of its activation that dark energy surged out and caused the changes in Xishan, then what is going on now?
Why is this coffin locked?
"Thirty-four people, thirty-four bones... Then why are there two people who went back to Buluocheng?"
"Could it be..."
Suddenly, Xu Mu thought of the humanoid Domain Lord demon he saw when he entered the mountain. His pupils suddenly shrank to the extreme, and his expression changed drastically:
"Don't let him open the coffin!"
"That story is false. Thirty-four people died here. This tomb has never been opened."
Xu Mu's expression was crazy, making everyone feel scared:
Chapter completed!
