He wiped his tears and looked up at the towering statue of the ancient rman as he muttered, “Na Ling… my wife…”
Kunlun suddenly hugged his head and said, “I have a headache.”
Sheng Xiao quickly handed a beverage to Kunlun. “Drink so Spirit Suppressing dicine.”
After Kunlun drank so Spirit Suppressing dicine, he felt less pain and gradually cald down. His sorrow also faded a little.
“From the looks of it, this rman called Na Ling was really Kunlun’s wife in his previous life.” Donor patted Kunlun’s shoulder and comforted him. “Don’t be sad. There’s still a long ti. You’ll find her.”
Kunlun nodded.
“Let’s go to the tomb.” Sheng Xiao led them around the statue and to the tomb behind it.
The tomb of the ancient rman was built in the shape of a typical turtle shell tomb.
According to the records, the big shots of the ancient era believed that since turtles had a long lifespan, if tombstones were built in the shape of turtle shells, the undead could rest in peace and have endless reincarnation.
Yu Huang had seen the information map of the ancient turtle shell tomb. She stared at the turtle shell tomb in front of her with a frown and said, “This turtle shell tomb is a little different from the turtle shell tomb I saw in the records.”
In the records, there was a treasure box-shaped top on the turtle shell tomb. However, the turtle shell tomb in front of them didn’t have a treasure box-shaped top. There was a blood-red sword inserted.
There were many black patterns on the sword, and the entire sword revealed an evil and murderous aura.
As Sheng Xiao stared at the dark patterns on the sword and the complicated patterns on the turtle shell, he explained, “This is a Tomb Guardian Array.”
Yu Huang and the others revealed shocked expressions when they heard this. “Tomb Guardian Array? Isn’t that an evil array?”
As the na suggested, the Tomb Guardian Array was an array formation used to protect the tomb.
However, the Tomb Guardian Array was too evil, so it was classified as an evil formation. It was an array formation that was forbidden to learn.
Therefore, in the array formation encyclopedia that Yu Huang and the others read, there were no longer any detailed explanations.
However, Yu Huang had still seen the ntion of the Tomb Guardian Array in so books about evil arrays.
However, they didn’t know exactly what kind of array the Tomb Guardian Array was.
The Sheng family had a long history and was the number one cultivation family on the Holy Spirit Continent. Their family also had many out-of-print records and array formation books.
From the looks of it, the Sheng family even had books on evil arrays.
Beatrice rubbed her nose and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t expose the Sheng family.”
Sheng Xiao looked at Beatrice calmly. “What can they do to even if you expose ?”
Beatrice was speechless.
Damn!
How arrogant.
Sheng Xiao pointed at the sword and told Yu Huang and the others, “Although the Tomb Guardian Array is an evil array in the current era, it was a very common array in the ancient era.”
“In ancient tis, every ti a big shot died, his descendants or his good friends and lover would definitely set up a Tomb Guardian Array outside the tomb.”
“All the tombs that have been set up with a Tomb Guardian Array can only be successfully opened by the descendants of the deceased or those closest to them. If soone forcefully opens the tomb, they will be cursed.”
Sheng Xiao suddenly looked at Donor. “Donor, you must have heard of the tragedy of the Elephant Clan being exterminated in the Ten Thousand Beast Continent four thousand years ago.”
Donor nodded and said, “Of course I rember. It’s said that four thousand years ago, the leader of the Elephant Clan found a Pri Master Tomb in a desert in the Ten Thousand Beast Continent. He forcefully pried open that tombstone and stole the Pri Master bone, all the cultivation techniques, and Spirit Tools.”
“In the end, not long after, all 1,208 clansn of the Elephant Clan died abnormally. Even those unborn children were stillborn.”
Yu Huang had never heard of this tragedy. Beatrice and Estelle also had shocked expressions. It could be seen that they had never heard of this matter either.
Yu Huang asked Sheng Xiao, “A Tomb Guardian Array was on the tomb that the leader of the Elephant Clan stole from?”
“That’s right.” Sheng Xiao said, “There’s an evil curse on any tomb with a Tomb Guardian Array. If soone ignores the Tomb Guardian Array and forcefully prys open the tomb, they will be cursed.”
“Also, because most of the curses are evil and cruel, once soone is cursed, the entire clan will be exterminated, or worst, the entire country’s stability will be jeopardized. That’s why the Tomb Guardian Array is classified as an evil array that is forbidden and no one is allowed to learn it.”
After knowing how dangerous this Tomb Guardian Array was, no one dared to act rashly.
At this mont, Kunlun took the initiative to walk out.
He stared at the red sword and said in a low voice, “Let draw the sword. Not to ntion that I’m the reincarnation of the Kunlun Divine Master, but I don’t have parents, a wife, or children, so even if worst cos to worst, I’m the only one who will die.”
As the reincarnation of the Kunlun Divine Master, Kunlun was the most suitable person to open this tombstone among the six of them.
The atmosphere was originally a little heavy, but Kunlun’s words amused everyone.
“Those baboons are all your clansn. How can you not have any family?” Yu Huang patted Yu Huang’s shoulder and reminded him solemnly, “Be careful.”
Sheng Xiao said, “We’ll save you if anything happens.”
“I know.”
Kunlun climbed to the turtle shell tomb and reached for the hilt.
The mont he held the hilt, a demonic wind suddenly blew on the plain. The red light on the sword flickered, and the runes on the turtle shell tomb lit up.
The rune lines sank into the jade stone, revealing grooves.
Sheng Xiao imdiately shouted, “Kunlun, cut your palm with your sword and drip your blood in the middle of the groove! The Tomb Guardian Array will only open the tomb after it senses your connection with the Kunlun Divine Master!”
“Okay!”
The sword was almost completely inserted into the turtle shell tomb. Kunlun gritted his teeth and forcefully pulled out the sword edge.
Kunlun extended his palm and without hesitation, he cut it with the sharp red blade. Blood dripped into the groove, and the groove lit up with a dazzling red light.
Then, the sound of chanisms being activated sounded from the turtle shell tomb.
After a long ti, the sound of the chanism activating stopped. Then, the demonic wind stopped and the tombstone opened.
Kunlun had actually successfully opened the tomb of the ancient rman.
Kunlun was the first to jump into the tomb. He discovered that there was a long staircase paved with jade inside the tomb. The stairs led from the top of the tomb to the inside.
Kunlun stood on the stairs and waited quietly for a mont. After he didn’t sense any danger, he said to Yu Huang and the others, “Everyone, co in.”
Only then did Yu Huang and the others jump into the tomb.
The entire tomb was made of jade. Even though this tomb had been sealed for ten thousand years, when Yu Huang and the others walked in, they discovered that the tomb was spotless, as if it had just been built.
Yu Huang took out the Night-Luminescent Pearl. The light of the Night-Luminescent Pearl reflected on the jade stone surface, and wisps of weak light instantly appeared in the pitch-black tomb.
Then, under the faint light, everyone stepped onto the jade stairs and walked into the tomb.
At the end of the long staircase, there was the first tomb. The tomb was semicircular, and there were three curved arches on the wall that led in different directions.
Behind every door, there was another scene. Whether one lived or died depended on luck.
Sheng Xiao said to Kunlun, “Lead the way.”
After all, this was a tombstone built by the Kunlun Divine Master for his beloved wife. Kunlun was the most suitable person to lead them.
Logically speaking, the tombs of the ancient era were particular about having direct access from one end of the tomb to the other. Using the middle door was the safest. However, Kunlun pointed at the door on the left and said, “Let’s use this door.”
Sheng Xiao pondered for a mont and pushed open the door on the left.
The mont the door was pushed open, a cold wind blew into Sheng Xiao and the others’ faces. They narrowed their eyes and opened them when the cold wind disappeared.
In the tomb, there was a calligraphy exhibition hall. There were many calligraphy and paintings hanging in the room. Those calligraphy and paintings had been sealed underground for ten thousand years, but they were still vibrant.
After Yu Huang and the others walked in and sized up every painting in the room, they discovered that those paintings were all drawings of the sa rman.
As for the rman in the paintings, be it the attire, posture, or background, they were almost exactly the sa.
In this room, besides these words and paintings, there was no door to the next house.
Seeing this, Yu Huang was puzzled. “What is the Kunlun Divine Master trying to do by placing so many identical paintings here? Let us admire his wife’s beauty?”
