Chapter 2024 Grave

Young Master Xin got off the Luancha, stretched out his hand and the Luancha turned into a beam of white light and disappeared into his sleeves.

Although he was not clear about the Xin family's master and servant's plan, Qin Sang saw the changes in their expressions when the Xin family monks fell behind one after another. Qin Sang also noticed the faint sneer on Pei Gongsheng's face, and he could guess it almost exactly.

The Xin family monks were forced to retreat one after another, and the number of people left was getting smaller and smaller. It was almost impossible for them to support a powerful formation. Without the protection of the spiritual formation, in the eyes of Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng, no matter how many people there were, they were just a group of scattered sand.

Qin Sang was very curious about how this Young Master Xin would resolve the crisis, or how she was going to convince herself and restrain Pei Gongsheng.

Young Master Xin looked quite calm. He did not ask for help. Instead, he ordered Manager Luo to step forward to clear the way and personally took command, intending to rely on the Xin family's own strength to break through this area of ​​light.

She spread out her right palm, on which a ball of talisman fire was burning. The outer edge of the flame was red, while the core of the flame was a light green. There seemed to be some kind of guidance in the depths of the light domain. As the talisman fire swayed, Young Master Xin kept changing the direction of her advance, shuttling through the vast light domain.

The strange lights were everywhere. Some people might have the illusion that they were going around in circles, but Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng could sense that the surroundings were changing all the time. To the naked eye, these strange lights seemed to be the same, but in fact they were completely different from the outside.

In the chaotic and strange light, there seems to be an invisible barrier hidden. If there is no one to show you the way, you may get lost in the light, or you may just pass through it without finding anything and not noticing anything unusual.

This was a very clever means of concealment, most likely some kind of spiritual formation or ancient taboo. Qin Sang was not sure. He observed his surroundings patiently and vaguely sensed a slight fluctuation, but it was always fleeting and he could not grasp the source of the fluctuation.

Young Master Xin was going to lead them through this invisible barrier.

In the end, all the Nascent Soul cultivators evacuated, and nearly half of the God Transformation cultivators were seriously injured. The Xin family paid a heavy price and finally passed through the invisible barrier, as if they had entered another space.

There is darkness ahead.

The moment he came in, the strange lights around him quickly flew away, and the most dangerous invisible strange lights also disappeared, and he suddenly went from light to darkness.

Everyone turned to look behind them and found that the strange light that had surrounded them had retreated to the end of the darkness.

Not only that, the feeling this space gave them was also very different from the outside.

Dead silence, cold...

For no reason, everyone had the same thought, as if they had entered a ghost town filled with yin energy, but there was clearly no yin energy at all around.

Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng stared into the depths of the darkness, as if they saw something, and their faces gradually became solemn.

"Everyone, please take a breath and recover first."

Young Master Xin shouted loudly, and the surroundings were safe for the time being.

Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng looked at each other without saying anything. They waited patiently for the Xin family cultivator to finish his breathing and fly into the depths of darkness.

Gradually, the monks of the Xin family also felt something strange. There was an unknown power permeating here that could obscure their perception, but only their vision was not affected.

When they flew for a distance, something finally appeared in the empty void, but when they saw clearly what was in front of them, everyone stopped in surprise and confusion.

"This... looks like a tomb!"

A cultivator from the Xin family said in amazement.

A shadow was floating in the void, which was obviously a man-made platform. It was majestic and taller than the mountain. There were steps leading up on all four sides, and a long trail extended from the front.

The trail is built with a kind of white stone that no one has ever seen before. The peculiar thing is that there are no runes on the white stone, only naturally formed messy lines, but it gives people a strong sense of desolation and antiquity, as if time and history were engraved on the surface of the white stone.

There are two rows of statues standing on both sides of the trail. Most of them are broken and almost nothing has survived. The best-preserved statue seems to be carved of a strange-looking monster.

There is a magnificent building on the top of the platform, with an outline like an inverted hemisphere. Facing them is a portal with two black stone doors tightly closed. In front of the portal is a stone table with broken legs and some scattered rocks.

This structure and pattern can't help but remind people of a mausoleum. Could it be that what they went through so much trouble to find was just a tomb? No wonder it felt so eerie before.

Whose grave?

Everyone looked at Young Master Xin, only to see him waving his hand to extinguish the talisman fire, then floating down to the front of the trail, lightly moving his lotus steps, and walking towards the platform step by step.

Including Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng, no one rushed to fly over. Instead, they followed Young Master Xin and walked up to the platform.

"right here?"

After entering the light realm, Pei Gongsheng had been watching coldly and took the initiative to ask for the first time.

"It's right here!"

Young Master Xin stared at the two stone doors.

Pei Gongsheng frowned, "Why is it a place like this? Whose grave is this?"

Qin Sang walked to the edge of the platform alone, gently touched the broken railing, felt the rough texture of the white stone, and glanced around.

If this is really a mausoleum, those statues should be tomb guardians. The place is filled with an ancient atmosphere, and the owner of the mausoleum must be an ancient monk.

In Fengju Yumen, Qin Sang had seen all kinds of magical illusions and broken small worlds, and saw a tomb for the first time.

"I don't know. It's still unknown whether this is someone's tomb. My father only said in his last words that if we can really find this place, there will be a passage behind the door. There will be another world inside. What we are looking for is inside..."

Young Master Xin turned his head and said, "Senior Pei, we could have formed a formation to open the stone door, but we lost too many people in the front. It might take a long time for us to do it with just a few people..."

Pei Gongsheng glanced at Qin Sang, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Although I have agreed with Fellow Daoist Xin that I will take action only after you enter, I am not a demanding person. Tell me, how can we open the stone door?"

"Thank you, Senior Pei!"

Young Master Xin bowed and walked to the stone gate alone.

The stone gate was a hundred feet high, and Young Master Xin looked very small standing in front of it. She mobilized her true energy, formed a seal, raised her right hand and gently pressed it on the stone gate. Then a ball of black light emerged from her palm and quickly spread out.

The stone gate stood still, but as the black light spread across the entire gate and seeped into it like water, faint lines appeared on the surface of the gate.

These lines became clearer and clearer, densely packed, and extremely complex, as if they were made up of countless runes. They were a kind of strange runes that no one had ever seen before, and they were not fixed, but changed every moment.

The Xin family monks looked at the stone gate and soon felt dizzy. It seemed as if a strange vortex had appeared on the door, which could devour their minds. They were secretly frightened and turned their eyes away.

Pei Gongsheng also put away the relaxed look on his face, realizing that the ancient ban on the door might not be easy to break.

Everyone was attracted by the stone gate, including Qin Sang. When he saw the ancient ban on the stone gate, he unexpectedly felt a sense of familiarity, but he had clearly never seen such a ban before.

He soon found the reason for the familiarity. It was not the ancient prohibition itself that he was familiar with, but the feeling. When he saw the prohibition of the witch clan before, it was also so strange, so strange that it was difficult to understand.

But he couldn't be sure that this was the remains of the Wu clan, because it was different from all the Wu clan restrictions he had seen before.

However, Fengju Yumen was originally the sacred mountain of the Wu clan, so it makes sense that there are Wu clan relics here.

Could this really be the tomb of a powerful witch from ancient times?

At this moment, Young Master Xin explained in detail the key to breaking the ban and signaled Pei Gongsheng that he could take action.

Pei Gongfeng raised his right hand, and a purple light suddenly appeared between his fingers. It was a slender purple needle, which was pinched between Pei Gongfeng's two fingers.

The purple needle trembled slightly, and a purple light flickered at the tip. The extremely subtle purple light seemed to contain violent power. Everyone who saw the purple needle felt a stinging pain in their eyes and dared not look directly at it.

'Shuh! '

The purple needle flew out of his hand, and the shadow of the needle flashed in the air, and instantly broke into thousands.

Countless purple needles were suspended in the air, with the needle tips pointing at the stone gate in the distance. Each needle shadow pointed to an ancient forbidden node, and with a tremor, it shot out wildly.

'puff! '

The purple needle shadow instantly sank into the stone gate, immediately triggering a fierce reaction from the ancient taboo, which caused bursts of black waves. One black wave after another, seemingly without much momentum, had an extremely powerful shock force.

Young Master Xin's face turned pale, and his right hand that was touching the stone door was instantly swallowed up by the black wave, and his delicate body trembled slightly.

The first to bear the brunt was Pei Gongsheng, who broke the ban himself. He frowned slightly and saw the trembling needle shadow. He said to Qin Sang: "Elder Qin, please lend a hand, so as to avoid more trouble at night."

It’s not that he couldn’t stop the black wave, but he didn’t want to waste too much energy here, especially with Qin Sang around.

Qin Sang nodded and summoned the Gray Oriole Sword. The sword light split into as many sword lights as there were needle shadows, all slashing towards the place where the needle shadows attacked.

Pei Gongsheng was a little disappointed. This kind of perfect control ability was not difficult for a Void Refining cultivator. He wanted to see Qin Sang display his unique swordsmanship and find out more about his background.

The sword light and the needle shadow attacked together, and the black wave was suppressed on the spot before it erupted. Young Master Xin's complexion improved, and he did not dare to hesitate. He changed the seals one after another, and with a roar, the heavy stone door was finally shaken by them.

The stone door just trembled, and the mausoleum under their feet also shook. Young Master Xin used all his strength and finally pushed the stone door slowly open a gap.

'call! '

A cold breath rushed out from the crack of the door.

Behind the door is a darkness that is purer and deeper than that outside, swallowing up all light. The interior is full of mystery, attracting everyone to explore. It is also like a huge mouth of the abyss, waiting to devour the lives of those present.

Everyone tried to use their spiritual sense to explore, but the door was immediately bounced open after they entered. It seemed that only by going in personally could they know what was inside.

Not daring to expect the two Void Refining monks to lead the way for them, Young Master Xin rested for a while, summoned the Xin family monks to form a formation, and walked carefully into the stone gate.

Pei Gongsheng followed closely behind, and Qin Sang came last.

After crossing the threshold, surprisingly, the front was not completely dark. They entered a tomb passage with a faint light, allowing them to see things with the naked eye.

The long tomb passage leads to the unknown. The top, walls and floor of the tomb passage are all made of white stones. It is like entering a tall stone palace. There seem to be murals carved on the surface of the walls, but they have faded long ago and it is impossible to tell what the paintings are.

Pei Gongsheng didn't understand what was going on either, so he turned around and asked Qin Sang, "Elder Qin, do you recognize this kind of mural?"

"Unheard of!"

Qin Sang shook his head.

He stared at the wall on the left with a normal expression, as if he was concentrating on observing the mural. But in fact, his heart was already in turmoil. He glanced at the ring on his right thumb - the Thousand-Part Ring!

Just now, the moment I stepped over the threshold, something unexpected happened and I felt a tremor in the Qianjun Ring.

This was completely beyond Qin Sang's expectations. The Qianjun Ring had been with him for many years and had always been used as a mustard seed magic weapon. How could he have expected that the Qianjun Ring would undergo a mutation here?

Caught off guard, he almost had no time to cover up. Fortunately, there was no obvious abnormality in the Qianjun Ring, and no one else noticed.

Qin Sang examined the Qianjun Ring once again.

This is an ordinary ring, made of material like black iron, a bit heavy and looks ordinary.

He still remembered that this item was the trophy he got when he killed the remnant of Kuiyin Sect, Taoist Jiupao.

The monks in the lower world generally use mustard seed bags. Compared with mustard seed bags, the space of Qianjun Ring has an advantage. However, Qin Sang later killed enemies and obtained some mustard seed magic weapons, some of which have a space better than Qianjun Ring, but he never replaced Qianjun Ring.

The reason is that only the Qianjun Ring can store the bone flute, the bone flute that carries "The Heavenly Demon Refining Form"!

Qin Sang tried to put the bone flute into other mustard seed-type magical instruments, and it would jump out immediately.

At the beginning, the bone flute broke into three pieces and could not be put into the mustard seed bag. The three owners could only carry the bone flutes with them. Only Qin Sang could put the bone flute into the Qianjun Ring. After getting the first piece, he could sense the bone flutes on others, but others could not sense him, so he was able to get them one after another.

Qin Sang had long known that the Qianjun Ring was unusual, but until he broke through the Void Refining Stage, he still didn't know what was so special about it. Later, he almost forgot about it. He didn't expect that the Qianjun Ring would show unusual movements here.

Whose tomb is this and why does it provoke a reaction from the Qianjun Ring?

Qin Sang's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself that his previous guess was just based on the ancient taboo of Shimen, and it had not been confirmed. This place might not be the tomb of the ancient witch clan.

He remembered that the Qianjun Ring seemed to be brought out from Ziwei Palace by Kuiyin Patriarch. Since it was from Ziwei Palace and was related to the Qianjun Ring, this place was most likely also closely related to Ziwei Palace.

"Could it be a fragment that fell off from Ziwei Palace?"

Qin Sang's thoughts were churning as he stared at the wall, trying to find clues from the murals. At the same time, he carefully recalled the scene when Ziwei Palace ascended, and it seemed that he did not see similar buildings at that time.

Suddenly, Qin Sang's heart moved, and he suddenly realized that although the tomb outside was damaged, it was the least damaged compared to the fragments of the sword pavilion he had seen before.

There must be a powerful formation protecting this place, which is far more powerful than the ancient ban on Mount Tianshan, so that it can resist the turbulence of space!

Qin Sang thought of a possibility, "Could it be a core area somewhere in Ziwei Palace?"

When ascending, the entire Ziwei Palace experienced violent shocks, and it is possible that the core area might be separated.

Qin Sang gently stroked the Qianjun Ring with his fingers, looking at Young Master Xin's back without saying a word, wondering how the Xin family discovered it.
