Mysterious and strange powers are not uncommon. They can always hurt people invisible and cause them to lose their lives inexplicably.
Adventurers are always wary of these things, because they know very well how serious the consequences will be.
Perhaps a moment of negligence can cost you your life.
For example, the ancient curse hidden in gemstones and gold coins is simply impossible to prevent, and even if it is infected, you will not know anything about it.
However, if you can give up your greed, the curse will be lifted automatically and it will turn into a ghost face and disappear.
Only at this time can you safely take away the gold coins.
It seems simple to say, but in the face of so many treasures, who can guarantee that he will not be tempted?
It's different now.
After what had just happened, Big Beard and the others did not dare to have any extra thoughts, lest they really lose their lives.
The fear of Tang Zhen, coupled with various terrifying legends, made them become more honest.
At this moment, Big Beard and the others all had the same idea in mind, which was to obey the orders honestly and leave here safely.
If Tang Zhen is willing to give a reward, it will be regarded as an unexpected gain. If Tang Zhen is not willing, then it will be regarded as a waste of time.
Being able to leave alive is more important than anything else!
While a group of adventurers were collecting loot, Tang Zhen had already fought his way to the end of the passage, until an underground hall appeared in front of him.
The main hall is simple and mottled, the architectural patterns are eerie and weird, and the exaggerated reliefs give people a feeling of breaking through the wall.
Being in such an environment gives people a very depressing feeling, as if they are being watched by countless pairs of eyes, looking for them but finding nothing.
Tang Zhen has determined that this should be a mausoleum where a monk is buried.
Judging from the collected information, the opponent's strength is not too strong, otherwise it would be impossible to easily enter this place based on his current level.
The monsters encountered earlier should be the guardian monsters of this tomb, and their food source is the giant rats in the living cave.
The bearded adventurer discovered the mausoleum. When he broke into it, he was chased by the guardian monster and was later rescued by Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen entered again, but he came for wealth.
Although it would disturb the rest of the deceased, the wealth here was very important to Tang Zhen, so he had to take it away.
Of course, when leaving, Tang Zhen would completely block the entrance to the mausoleum to ensure that no one would enter it again.
However, when he walked to the huge coffin and saw the rune circle painted on the surface, he immediately changed his original idea.
Judging from Tang Zhen's experience, the purpose of the rune arrays on the coffin is clearly to nourish the corpse.
After the death of a living creature, the body and soul cannot continue to fuse. After the soul leaves the body, it will not take long to decay.
Monks can continue to survive through energy states, but if they are weak, they will not survive for too long.
So some monks found another way, using some special methods to make the body die without decaying, and forcibly sealed the soul and body together.
Then look for a place where energy gathers, which is a geomantic treasure in the eyes of the world, build a mausoleum and hide in it.
With the nourishment of the energy of heaven and earth, the corpse in the coffin will slowly change and gradually take on demonic characteristics.
The soul-containing effect will also become better and better, and when it reaches a certain level, it will become extremely powerful.
Such monks can be promoted to king level or even higher realms, but there are also disadvantages.
Because it is a forced fusion, the body of this kind of monk can never be energized. If the physical body is damaged, it will truly disappear into ashes.
"The purpose of my coming here is just to take away treasures that are useless to you and will not disturb your cultivation.
If you can hear me, just stay still and don't do anything stupid."
Tang Zhen said in a light tone, his eyes seemed to see through the coffin and see the scene inside.
After waiting for a while, there was no movement.
"In that case, it's settled!"
Tang Zhen turned around, smiled slightly at the surprised bearded people behind him, and then pointed to the two boxes next to him.
Just now I thought the scene of Tang Zhen talking to the coffin was a bit scary, but when they saw the gold coins in the box, the fear of Big Beard and others was immediately thrown away.
There are so many gold coins and large pieces of energy gems, which makes people almost crazy with excitement.
Even if these wealth do not belong to you, as long as you can take a look at it and reach out to touch it, it is a happy thing.
Tang Zhen looked at so many gold coins, but couldn't help but feel a little worried, because he couldn't carry so many gold coins with him.
It would be nice to have storage equipment so that you can store it and take it out when needed.
It's a pity that after entering this world, neither the storage equipment nor the divine kingdom in the mind can be used, otherwise why would Tang Zhen be so aggrieved?
If possible, he could completely become a zero-level trumpet, wear a magical outfit, select powerful monsters to attack, and strike at level ninety-nine with one blow!
But that would be too unfair to the other Loucheng monks, and it would make the competition lose its original meaning.
It's not a good thing for Tang Zhen. He can wear a divine costume, and other Loucheng monks can do the same, or even be more powerful than him.
If he encounters monks from the top three war zones, Tang Zhen may not be his opponent and will most likely be eliminated.
In fact, Tang Zhen also tried to contact the Balance of Destiny to see if he could get a response, but found that it did exist, but he could not reach it with his mental power.
To use a simple analogy, the door is right in front of you, and you can see the scenery behind the door through the gap. Unfortunately, you just don't have enough strength to push the door open.
Tang Zhen could not determine the specific cause of this situation. After trying several times, he had no choice but to give up.
Just as he was thinking secretly, a trace of black energy suddenly gushes out from the huge coffin a few meters behind him.
The black liquid seeped out along the gaps, flowed into the ancient runes, and instantly covered the entire surface of the coffin.
The huge coffin suddenly opened automatically, and then a figure wearing filthy robes burst out, holding a black pointed awl and stabbing Tang Zhen.
Under the rusty bronze mask, there was a pair of green eyes, staring at Tang Zhen.
"I know you won't give in. Since the gold coins are placed here, how can you let others take them away easily!"
Tang Zhen seemed to have expected this scene to happen, so he sneered and suddenly swung his long sword back to attack the owner of his tomb.
"when!"
With a not very loud impact, the metal tip similar to a staff was cut off, and the sword energy swept through the mask of the tomb owner, cutting it directly into two halves.
"Wow!"
The mask fell to the ground, revealing a withered and ferocious face, with many ulcers on the mouth and nose.
"Isn't it better to just lie down and have to jump out to seek death?"
The owner of the tomb was slightly stronger than Tang Zhen, but his movements were a little stiff, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Although Tang Zhen's cultivation was sealed, he could still easily deal with the monster's sneak attacks. It was only a matter of time before he killed him.
Under the watchful eyes of Big Beard and other adventurers, the two sides fought for more than ten rounds, and then Tang Zhen swept out with a sword.
The angle of this sword was so tricky that the tomb owner was unable to dodge and his head was cut off directly.
"puff!"
As if a high-pressure faucet was turned on, the headless corpse of the tomb owner stood motionless, and the smelly blood rose into the sky, and then fell straight to the ground.
Tang Zhen shook the long sword in his hand, turned to look at the head lying aside, and let out a cold snort.
"You don't know what you can do."
While Tang Zhen was talking, he inadvertently glanced at the body of the tomb owner, and accidentally saw an object, which made him couldn't help but smile.
