Lu Feng was shocked when he heard Wu Ying's statement. After thinking about it, he asked curiously: "After the Xie Dynasty overthrew the Ji Dynasty, since they got this tortoise shell treasure map, why didn't they dig out this secret treasure?
?Instead, we want to set up such a dangerous place and seal it away?"
While Wu Ying shook off the water stains on his body and wiped the tortoise shell with a clean cloth, he explained to Lu Feng: "After the Xie Dynasty overthrew the Ji Dynasty, its resources alone were far greater than its own.
The development needs were enough for him to become a giant at that time."
"Based on the current situation, the Xie Dynasty and the Ji Dynasty are like the Bingquan Sect and Qinghe Sect in the Snow Region. If the Bingquan Sect destroys the Qinghe Sect and takes away its resources, it will surely be enough to dominate the Snow Region and Tongsheng
The Holy Sect of the domain and the Jun family of the Xuan domain are on an equal footing."
"If we continue to look for those massive resources, it is inevitable that other forces will covet them. We may even worry that they are determined to dominate the mainland and join forces to deal with them."
Lu Feng corrected him: "If we want to destroy it, the Qinghe Sect must also destroy the Bingquan Sect."
He still defends his "hometown" from the bottom of his heart.
However, because of Wu Ying's words, he understood the Xie Dynasty's intention of building this tomb.
The reason why today's Qinghe Sect and Bingquan Sect can maintain balance is not only because of their similar strength, but also because of the cold natural dangers such as the Snowy Region.
It is difficult for the local soul masters in the snowy region to adapt to the cold, and their strength will be suppressed to a certain extent, so that they will not dare to attack easily.
As for secret support, that won't work easily. After all, the Jun family and the Sheng sect can be regarded as suppressing each other. If one party reveals its intention to help the Bingquan sect or the Qinghe sect, the other party will definitely intervene and form a confrontation again.
, and never allow the other party’s power to expand further.
It is expected that the Xie Dynasty of that era did not have such natural dangers. After defeating the Ji Dynasty, although it became the overlord of one side, there should still be an overlord dynasty that could compete with it.
Based on this situation, this treasure map can only be sealed;
He neither wants the remnants of the Ji Dynasty to be found in order to revive him and take revenge;
And save a way out for yourself.
While it can intimidate other overlord dynasties, if the day comes that you have to fight against other overlords, you will take it out to expand your own strength.
Wu Ying stared at the tortoise shell in his hand with despair, and sighed with regret: "This damn Xie Dynasty actually used such despicable means to lay on this treasure map with 'corrupt crystal powder'!"
Lu Feng was stunned, thinking that the rot crystal powder would melt when exposed to water and would be strongly corroded. He couldn't help but understand why the treasure map on the tortoise shell looked like this after being soaked in water.
"Only half of the treasure map has been corrupted. I don't know if I will be able to find the location of Ji Dynasty's treasure house in this life."
Wu Ying put away the tortoise-shell treasure map in frustration. Based on the remaining icons on it, he could not tell which area on the current continent it corresponded to. Even if he looked up historical materials to find the corresponding area, it was easy to find the corresponding area based on its vast area.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to find the specific location of the treasure house.
Gan Xin saw that Wu Ying and Lu Feng were thinking about the tortoise shell treasure map, ignoring the rising water level on the side, which was almost submerged in the stone room where they were. He couldn't help but nervously reminded: "Master, why don't we find it first?" Exit? The water is almost submerging this place."
Wu Ying stopped him and said, "Don't worry, we just have to wait until the water submerges this place before we can go out."
"The exit is under the water," Lu Feng also saw this. The water flowing up from the ground seems to be active. There must be a way to connect to the outside world underneath. There is a high probability that Ning Xiang fell into it before. There is an underground river, and the person who built the tomb was led to this bottomless depth in the form of a 'waterfall'.
If they didn't wait for this space to be filled with water and rashly opened the bottom plate blocking the water flow, the massive water source under the huge height difference and pressure would pour in, which would probably wash them all away.
Shao Yang asked in confusion: "It's so good, how did the water appear here?"
Wu Ying explained: "The stone chamber we are in now, and the stone chamber of Ji Tianjun's coffin, should be made of massive amounts of magnetic fine iron, and the two are maintained in a delicate balance."
"When we take away the many weapons in the stone chamber, the weight will be reduced, and the balance between them will be broken. The entire stone chamber must have floated due to the magnetic force."
Shao Yang was startled: "Could the previous bursts of friction sound be caused by the abnormal movement of the stone chamber in this entire space?"
Qian Xin also said: "This is too mysterious, isn't it? Such a large space moved, but only a little friction sound was made? We didn't even notice it when we were standing inside."
??????????????? Wu Ying sighed: "This is the power of the magnetic element fine iron."
Man Zhongli was curious: "What about that metallic clanging and rumbling sound at the beginning?"
"That should be a valve that blocks the water source!" Wu Ying said with a bit of hindsight regret, "If I had reacted earlier, I'm sure there would have been a chance to save this treasure map. From this point of view, building a tomb The person seems to have no intention of leaving this treasure map to unsuspecting outsiders."
Shao Yang was confused: "If it is just for weight, to hold down the stone platform or the entire stone chamber, why should such a precious weapon be kept here? Can't it be replaced by other objects?"
Wu Ying looked a little more solemn and said in a deep voice: "I didn't understand it before, but when I saw the coffin where Ji Tianjun was stored, it was painted with gold and engraved with their totems in the royal etiquette prevalent in the Ji Dynasty. Look, I guess it's out of respect."
"Although the Xie Dynasty and Ji Dynasty are rivals, they have been fighting each other for many years, and there is no lack of sympathy for each other. The battle between Ghost Face King Tu and Ji Tianjun can even be said to have caused a sensation in the entire continent at that time. It was the strongest In a life-and-death battle between them, Ghost Faced King Tu's final victory was also an extremely tragic victory, and he died not long after that."
"Perhaps it is because of this consideration, or because of the ghost-faced king Tu's last words, he wanted to let his battle ax of King Tu, as well as the four generals and two beasts who fell in that battle, stay here to guard the Xie Dynasty. Be loyal one last time."
"Of course, in my opinion, the most important point is that Lord Xie Tian may also want to hide the five keys that open the two kings' tombs so that they cannot be easily found by the world after his death."
The water in the stone chamber gradually rose.
While Lu Feng listened to Wu Ying describing every detail about the Xie Dynasty and the Ji Dynasty, he reviewed what he had learned from his trip to the tomb.
Just the belongings of Huo Qiu and his party, and the items collected from the treasure house in this tomb are already a huge amount of resources.
Lu Feng did not intend to occupy this resource, nor did he plan to give it all to Shao Yang and others. Instead, he divided it into three parts and planned to give the bulk to the Pingling Sect. After all, at this critical moment, the Pingling Sect was suffering from internal and external troubles.
Resources were urgently needed to support development, and the extra part was left to the Qingshan Sword Sect.
Originally it was supposed to be divided evenly, but considering that the entire Qingshan Sword Sect was wiped out during this trip and the losses were huge, it was considered a small part of the compensation.
Although his disciples did not receive many substantial resources, the experiences along the way were already the most precious wealth.
…
The location of Love Tomb.
Jiang Ruoyun finally calmed down the pain caused by the Yuanyang Formation, and thought about continuing to practice and strive for an early breakthrough, but his heart was still restless, full of hesitation and restlessness, and he could not calm down no matter what.
While hesitating, Jiang Ruoyun walked out of the training room and went straight to the red scorpion.
Red Scorpion was currently in his room, slightly bowed in front of a long wooden table, examining the messy cowhide rags on it.
"Sister Hong~"
Jiang Ruoyun's anxious voice awakened Red Scorpion from his concentration.
Red Scorpion came back to his senses and said with a somewhat teasing smile: "Still worried about your brother Feng?"
Jiang Ruoyun's face suddenly turned red when he was poked at the central issue. He nodded gently and said, "Sister Hong, can you please help me go out and find out how he is doing?"
When Red Scorpion heard this, he instinctively agreed, but thinking about what the tomb owner had just told him, he hesitated and glanced at the rags on the table.
"Yunfeng, come here~" Hong Scorpion finally decided to help his good sister, and pulled Jiang Ruoyun to the table with one hand, and warned: "Sister Hong, this is
Just run for you, and before Sister Hong comes back, you can help Sister Hong to piece together these rags."
"This is..." Jiang Ruoyun looked confused.
Red Scorpion whispered: "This is a newly obtained ancient tomb map from our Qing Tomb. The elder gave it to me to take charge of. I see that these pieces of cloth seem to be incomplete and I can't put them together. Please help me take a look."
Jiang Ruoyun nodded in agreement.
Red Scorpion encouraged with satisfaction: "If we can put it together later, we encountered the Bottle Spirit Sect last time, so we should invite some good people to go with us."
Jiang Ruoyun waved her little hand, "This is what the elder gave to Sister Hong. It's not good for me to get involved."
Hong Scorpion took Jiang Ruoyun's hand in dissatisfaction and said earnestly: "What difference do we have between us sisters? If we are so polite to Sister Hong, Sister Hong will be angry!"
Jiang Ruoyun immediately apologized and responded gently and submissively.
But for some reason, maybe it was a woman's natural intuition. After hearing the news that she was going to the Pingling Sect, the uneasiness in her heart suddenly jumped, as if something bad was about to happen.
…
Tomb at the bottom of the abyss.
Lu Feng and his party all held their breath and dived into the underground river lake. The two stone chambers made of magnetic fine iron were completely submerged by the current.
Everyone successfully opened and closed a gap from the direction where the undercurrent was pouring in, and finally managed to escape from the tomb realm.
Wu Ying led the team in front, holding lighting jade beads, and swam along the undercurrent in the opposite direction.
It looks very much like a group of tadpoles led by a tadpole mother.
After traveling several dozen meters horizontally, we encountered a cliff-like waterfall.
Just as Lu Feng had expected, the underground river on the top was indeed diverted and flowed down here.
Everyone immediately used the buoyancy of the water to swim towards the top.
After floating about thirty or forty meters, bright natural light could be vaguely seen.
Everyone was immediately overjoyed, with joy appearing on their faces.
Suddenly, when they surfaced one by one and came to a wide lake.
A figure walking by the shore of the lake made all of their faces freeze for a moment.
