Zhao Hongfu held a bowl of decoction and fed it to Zhu Honggong spoonful by spoonful. She said, Your injuries are very serious. Dont move recklessly.

Zhu Honggong chuckled and said, This is a small problem. With my masters healing technique, Ill be able to jump around in seconds.

The runic pa.s.sage is already half completed. Well be able to return soon, Zhao Hongfu said.

No, we can wait a little longer, Zhu Honggong said, In any case, we still have a little profound microstones left

Zhao Hongfu asked, Why do your words change every day? Youre the one who said we should leave soon, and now, youre saying we can wait. Oh, I understand now! Is it because you discovered you have many beautiful fans now after becoming famous?

What beautiful fans? They dont exist in my heart. My heart only has my master and his mission. I dont dare to forget this, Zhu Honggong said.

Words are just words! Actions speak louder than words! Zhao Hongfu said before she thumped his chest lightly.

Ouch! Zhu Honggong cried out.

Shocked, Zhao Hongfu hastily asked, Are you okay?

I almost died! Do you think Im okay? Zhu Honggong asked.

Forget it. It really wasnt easy killing an Eight Chart cultivator, Zhao Hongfu said with a sigh.

Thats right.

The duo sighed in unison.

Zhao Hongfu blinked as she said, Youre the guardian of the yellow lotus domain. Even the emperor has to show respect to you.

Of course, look at me, Zhu Honggong said proudly.

Hey, you cant be too complacent. If the green lotus cultivators could come once, they could come again. If Im not mistaken, the yellow lotus domain has long been exposed. Its impossible for you to be a local tyrant here, Zhao Hongfu said.

Zhu Honggong said, You have a point. Then, hurry up and complete the runic pa.s.sage.

The duo nodded in unison.

At this moment, just as Lu Zhou was about to cut off the power of sight, a voice rang from outside.

Pavilion Master, weve arrived at the mausoleum of Mount Li.

Lu Zhou cut off the power of sight. Now that the crisis in the golden lotus domain and yellow lotus domain had been resolved, there was no need to worry too much.

Lu Zhou flashed and arrived on the deck. He surveyed his surroundings and saw a mountain range that stretched for miles in front of him. This scene gave him a sense of dj vu. It reminded him of the Heavenly Moat in the golden lotus domain.

The mausoleum of Mount Li is over there. The royal family would come here every once in a while to perform sacrificial ceremonies, Qin Renyue said.

Lu Zhou brought the map, which he had pieced together, out and looked at it before pa.s.sing it to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu took a look and pointed to the front left. Over there.

Zhao Yu had been here before so he was rather familiar with this place.

Under his lead, the flying chariot arrived at the foot of Mount Li.

The entrance to the mausoleum is about three miles ahead, Zhao Yu said.

Everyone nodded and disembarked from the flying chariot before they flew over. Soon after, they arrived at the entrance of the mausoleum.

The construction of the mausoleum was brilliant. There were all kinds of stone pillars and towers everywhere. All kinds of formations were carved on them to protect the mausoleum.

Lets go.

Everyone walked forward to the huge stone doors of the mausoleum. A life-like stone dragon hung above the stone door. Similar to the pillars, runes, inscriptions, and formations were etched on the doors.

Zhao Yu said, Old Sir, in the past, the royal family didnt pay their respect here so I dont know whats inside

Mings.h.i.+ Yin came to Zhao Yus side and said, Its okay. Theres no need to say more. I understand. It doesnt make sense to bring people to excavate their ancestral grave.

Uh Its not what you think. I really havent been in there before Zhao Yu said.

Alright, alright, I believe you. Mings.h.i.+ Yin said with a smile as he nodded.

Zhao Yu scratched his head, speechless. He had seen Mings.h.i.+ Yin look as though he was on the brink of death yesterday, but after a night, Mings.h.i.+ Yin had been completely revived?

Meanwhile, Qin Ren Yue stepped forward and studied the formation on the doors. He said, The formation is strange and exquisite. It wont be easy to deactivate the formation. However, we can try to force our way in.

Zhao Yu.

All you big shots, can you spare me some dignity? Were here to unlock the secret of the golden tokens, not excavate my ancestral grave!

The four elders of Mount Li did not say a word during their journey here apart from giving directions.

At this moment, Mings.h.i.+ Yin kicked Cui Mingguang.

You kicked me?! Cui Mingguang roared.

Not only did I kick you, but I also want to beat you up, Mings.h.i.+ Yin said before he threw a punch out.

Tell me, how do we go in?

The four of us guard this place all year round. However, we only know that those with the royal bloodline can enter, Ji s.h.i.+ said.

The royal bloodline?

Everyone turned to look at Zhao Yu in unison.

Zhao Yu took a step back. When he saw Mings.h.i.+ Yin approaching him with a strange smile, he asked nervously, What do you want?

Borrow me your blood! Mings.h.i.+ Yin moved at lightning speed. A cold light glinted in his hand before he p.r.i.c.ked Zhao Yus finger.

Splat!

After a drop of blood landed on the doors, the doors still remained motionless.

Why isnt it working? Mings.h.i.+ Yin looked at Ji s.h.i.+.

Ji s.h.i.+ turned slightly and pointed at the dragon head with his hands still restrained, Try there.

Mings.h.i.+ Yin nodded.

Borrow me some more blood. Mings.h.i.+ Yin moved very quickly. Before Zhao Yu could react, his finger was p.r.i.c.ked again, and another drop of blood landed on the dragons head.

Zhao Yu.

Still, there was no movement from the stone doors.

Zhao Yu was furious. He looked at Ji s.h.i.+ and said, Can you finish your sentence in one go!?

Mings.h.i.+ Yin nudged Zhao Yu with his elbow and said, I dont think theres anything wrong with what he said. Perhaps, theres a problem with you

Zhao Yu refuted vehemently, Impossible! My mother isnt that kind of person!

Mings.h.i.+ Yin coughed before he said, Uh Thats not what I mean. However, the stone doors are really not moving

Zhao Yu walked forward and looked at the dragons head. Then, he forcefully pressed his bleeding finger on the dragons head.

At this moment, the dragons head lit up, and the stone doors lit up as well.

Zhao Yu turned to Ming s.h.i.+yin and said with a smug smile. I told you it wasnt like that.

Fortunately, it wasnt like that Otherwise, I wont acknowledge you, Ming s.h.i.+yin said.

What?

Nothing.

Creak!

The stone doors opened.

A pitch-black pa.s.sage appeared in front of everyone.

Lu Zhou had night vision so he could see clearly. He took the lead and walked in with his hands on his back as everyone followed behind him.

With Lu Zhou and Qin Renyue at the lead, everyone was not only not worried, but they were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with confidence as well. Soon enough, they saw a descending staircase. They did not hesitate and flew down.

Zhao Yu looked at the map in his hand and said, We have entered the underground area of the mausoleum.

At this moment, Ji s.h.i.+ said, Theres something that guards the late Emperor Emerituss tomb.

What is it? Lu Zhou asked.

Ying Gou, Ji s.h.i.+ replied.

Ying Gou? Kong Wen was shocked.

Ji s.h.i.+ continued to say, In ancient times, humans and fierce beasts used all kinds of methods to obtain eternal life. In that era, many strange secret techniques, formations, and witchcraft spells could be found. There were hundreds of schools of thought that the schools of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism werent worth mentioning at all at that time. Unfortunately, no matter how humans cultivated, they were unable to obtain eternal life. Therefore, some humans and fierce beasts did the opposite, seeking death first before seeking eternal life

They lived as zombies. This method crossed the line, causing heavens to mete out punishment to those who cultivated it. They were cursed to be soulless and without will, cursed to be controlled like puppets.

However, there were naturally exceptions. Ying Gou was one of the ten great zombies. He was once the subordinate of a supreme being. Later on, he lost during a war and was punished by the supreme being to guard the underworld. Outwardly, he seemed to have acquiesced to his punishment, but inwardly, he was extremely dissatisfied. Later on, he was bewitched by the Hou and consumed the Hous poison. With that, his body underwent a huge change. His Dantians sea of Qi vanished, and he gained an undead or immortal body. He caused harm to humans everywhere he went, but at some point, he disappeared, whereabouts unknown.

Kong Wen asked curiously, Then, how did it appear in the mausoleum of Great Qins royal family?

Ji s.h.i.+ shook his head and said, I heard that the late Emperor Emeritus found it near one of the Pillars of Destruction. Then, he continued to say, Apart from Ying Gou, there are also all kinds of strange formations. Its very difficult to get close to the late Emperor Emeritus tomb. It took 30,000 cultivators to build this mausoleum and the tomb. All of them died in here.

Little Yuaner subconsciously hugged the little Fire Phoenix closer as she looked to the left and right. Senior brother, why dont we go out?

It was dark and chilly in here.

Yu Shangrong patted Little Yuaners head gently and said, Since youre already here, you should try and relax. If theres anything strange, senior brother will protect you.

At this moment, Lu Zhou said, Follow me.

He placed his hands on his back and flew toward a round platform up ahead. Before he landed, the runes and inscriptions on the platform lit up, illuminating the surroundings and revealing the appearance of the platform.

Then, several chains that glowed with a black light shot out from the platform in all directions.

At the same time, a majestic voice rang in the air.

Who dares to trespa.s.s into the forbidden area of the mausoleum?
