Wu Jianwu followed behind the captain and Xu Qing, shaking his head as he walked, unaware that in this world, there had finally appeared soone who appreciated him and understood the aning behind his poems.
"The lonely leaf is missing half its body, how can a bird fly high without wings."
Wu Jianwu sighed softly.
Ning Yan curled his lips and thought to himself that this Wu Jianwu's brain must be different from ordinary people. If he could stand at the top of the world one day, he would definitely give the order to open the latter's head and see what nonsense demon was playing mischief inside.
Wu Jianwu vaguely sensed that sothing was amiss with Ning Yan's gaze. He turned his head and snorted coldly.
"A shaless child, three feet tall; upon closer look, it's just dog poop!"
Ning Yan glared angrily and wanted to flare up. However, when he thought of all sorts of ferocious beasts with the other party, he held it in.
At this mont, the captain's voice rang out from ahead.
"The two of you, stop. It's almost ti. I'll bring you guys to my house."
"I'll let you guys see what it ans to be magnificent and rich. My tomb was built with countless effort and there is astonishing wealth left behind in it!"
"Big Jianjian, I have five scrolls of the Ancient Sovereign that you wanted!"
"Little Ningning, I have seven types of bloodline atavism items. You can choose whatever you want."
"Also, Junior Brother, let tell you. This is the foundation of our great things and the source of the collapse of the Red Moon Shrine in the future!"
"Rember to hold your jaw later. Otherwise, it'll fall easily!"
The captain's eyes revealed pride. He lifted his chin and sped forward.
Seeing that the captain was so confident and had a look of longing on his face, Xu Qing felt a little curious. He had guessed about the captain's previous life but he didn't have any clues.
However, from the captain's performance on the way, it was certain that his previous life's status was extraordinary.
Hence, his eyes revealed anticipation.
Even Wu Jianwu stopped reciting poetry and quickened his pace. Ning Yan's expression also beca excited. As for Ling'er, her eyes revealed deep curiosity.
Just like that, the five of them left Welco Bull City and entered the Unending Mountain Range under the falling of night.
The captain led the way, even though he hadn't been here for a long ti. After all, this place was where he had lived in his past life. At the beginning, he needed to carefully identify his surroundings, but he soon beca familiar with the area.
Four hours later, the five of them had already entered deep into the Unending Mountain Range. They passed by one mountain peak after another. Every ti they passed by a place, the captain would speak with reminiscence.
"This place used to be called the Fair Maiden Peak. Back then, the sect of a beauty that pursued was in this peak. What a pity. Now that she's already bones, she can't chase after anymore."
"This place used to be the Three Cauldrons Sect. It was the hotown of a good friend of mine back in the day. I miss him so much. He belonged to the Artifact Race and was much stronger than little Ninging. He could freely transform into various weapons."
"Ti changes, and things and people are no longer the sa."
The captain sighed with emotion, his lanting voice echoing around, and finally, in the pitch-black night, he led Xu Qing and the others to a bare foothill in the Unending Mountain Range.
On the way, they stopped at seven places. Every ti, the captain would perform a series of hand seals, as though he was opening a seal.
"The opening of the tomb of my previous life requires eight steps. Moreover, it has to have my mark and be completed in six hours. The sequence can't be wrong. If any step goes wrong, it won't work. The most crucial aspect is to synchronize with the intervals of ti, neither more nor less."
"This is the last place."
The captain looked at the bare mountain. Everything here looked normal and nothing could be inferred from the surroundings.
He sized it up, calculated the ti, and raised his right hand to form a seal. Then, he pressed it forward.
The ground trembled slightly and the mountain rocks seed to be dislocated.
After sensing it, a smile appeared on the captain's face. He suddenly smacked his chest, spitting out a large mouthful of blood that splattered onto the ground. The blood quickly fused into it and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It wasn't over. He swiftly circled around the short mountain, running and striking himself. In the midst of the shock of Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu, the captain spewed out nurous mouthfuls of blood.
The blood all rged into the soil, leaving no trace behind, as if it had soaked deep within.
After about fifteen minutes, the captain returned, panting and pale, but with an excited and triumphant expression, as he spoke.
"Unlocking the tomb requires following all the steps correctly. Any mistake in the process is unacceptable. Apart from , no one else can achieve this."
Xu Qing calculated the amount of blood the captain spat out. It was about the blood of more than 200 people. Hence, his expression also revealed a strange expression. Other than the captain, very few people could do this.
"Now, open your eyes wide!"
The captain laughed loudly and stomped on the ground. Imdiately, the soil under his feet caved in, forming a vortex that swallowed his figure.
Xu Qing didn't hesitate and brought Ling'er over. Ning Yan and Wu Jianwu followed closely behind and the five of them instantly entered the vortex.
At the next instant, the vortex disappeared and everything returned to normal.
When the restrictions here were set up, they clearly took into account energy fluctuations and concealnt. Hence, from the start to the end, everything was finished silently.
As for the place this vortex led to, Xu Qing couldn't sense it. At that mont, as his vision beca clearer, the five of them were already in a cave.
The area was quite extensive, forming an elliptical shape with a height of several thousands of feet. Twelve enormous statues stood around them.
Among them, there were humans and nonhumans. So held weapons, and so glared angrily. All of them exuded an ancient aura. Compared to them, Xu Qing and the other three felt as though they had arrived in the country of giants.
