Chapter 683: Chapter 452: Celestial Master Xu enters Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum!_2
Xu Yang was highly content with these two disciples.
Given enough ti, the two were sure to beco well-known martial arts experts.
After having dinner with the old man at Xishan Wanshou Palace, Xu Yang set off for Wu City. However, on his way back, he stopped when he passed through Xi’an.
Standing under the night sky, Xu Yang looked down to find that the sky above Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum was filled with roiling Yin energy, forming an extrely powerful Ghost Realm of Yin Energy.
Within the Ghost Realm, a large number of heroic spirit figures were appearing and disappearing intermittently.
“Hmm?”
...
Xu Yang’s face showed a slight change as he said, “The last ti I went to the Heavenly Court with Lord Thunder, we started from Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum. At that ti, there was no such phenonon… Could it be that sothing unusual has occurred in the mausoleum these few days?”
With a thought, he transford into a streak of immortal light and descended.
……
Outside Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum.
Duan Tianhe, the tomb keeper, was standing in front of his small shop constructed from color steel plates, watching the direction of the mausoleum.
Suddenly.
He felt sothing and looked up at the sky.

“Old Brother Duan.”
Xu Yang landed and stood next to Duan Tianhe.
“Celestial Master Xu.”
Duan Tianhe cupped his fist in salute, surprised, “Why has Celestial Master Xu co here?”
Xu Yang said, “I visited Minister Wang and noticed an anomaly in Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum on the way back, so I ca down to have a look… Brother Duan, what is the situation in the mausoleum?”
As the custodian of Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum, Duan Tianhe has the greatest understanding of the tomb.
In fact, he had made contact with the “heroic spirits” in the mausoleum more than a decade ago.
As per the agreent, the heroic spirits within Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum wouldn’t roam the world. However, the Yin energy in the sky above the mausoleum was soaring, forming a Ghost Realm. Within the realm, countless spirits would appear and disappear from ti to ti, seemingly ready to break out of the tomb and descend upon the world at any mont.
Duan Tianhe shook his head, “Three days ago, strange energy fluctuations emanated from the mausoleum. I wanted to go in and check, but was repelled by that force. These past three days, I’ve attempted to communicate with the spirits but to no avail.”
“To no avail?”
Xu Yang flashed his eyes and asked, “Is it that you can’t communicate, or the spirits are not responding?”
Duan Tianhe replied, “I tried to communicate with the spirits through the will of martial arts, but unfortunately, I didn’t receive any response.”
He turned to Xu Yang and asked, “Do you intend to enter the mausoleum?”
Seeing Xu Yang nod, Duan Tianhe added, “Although you have achieved immortality and are peerless in the mortal world, Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum is a tomb created by Emperor Qin himself. No one knows what dangers lie within!”
“Emperor Qin Shi Huang swept across all six nations in his ti, unifying Hua Xia, and being nad as the Eternal Emperor, leaving countless legends in the mortal world. The tomb he arranged is certainly anything but ordinary!”
If it were a common imperial mausoleum, Xu Yang, with his cultivation, could co and go freely.
But Emperor Qin was different.
This Eternal Emperor could not be asured by common sense.
Duan Tianhe took out a token. The token bore a significant sense of historical vicissitude and was engraved with the ancient character “Qin.” He said, “This is a token I received the first ti I made contact with the heroic spirits inside the emperor’s mausoleum. You may find it useful when entering the mausoleum.”
Xu Yang took the token and advanced towards the mausoleum.
Duan Tianhe’s face was filled with worry as he said, “Master Xu… if it’s not achievable, better to prioritize your safety.”
Xu Yang turned around, smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Old Brother Duan, I’ve got it in hand.”
With a slight move of his feet, he dashed off like a ghostly figure and arrived dozens of ters away in a blink.
With a few flickers, Xu Yang arrived in front of Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum.
He saw a dark and gloomy place ahead. Within the Yin energy, the heroic spirits were in groups, equipped with armor and weapons, so even riding spirit horses, as if they were patrolling.
Just as Xu Yang was about to use the slipping technique to enter and investigate the mausoleum, he found that a group of heroic spirits had turned into streaks of Yin energy, and suddenly appeared in front of him.
Among the spirits, there was a general in armor at the front.
He was tall and burly with impressive bearing. He looked so life-like that, if it wasn’t for the intense death and Yin energy emanating from him, anyone would mistake him for a living being.
The general saluted Xu Yang and said, “I am ng Fan, a general in the Tiger Corps, and I am pleased to et Master Xu.”
The Tiger Corps was a type of military force in ancient tis.
It refers to the bravest mbers of the army, as powerful and courageous as a tiger, typically serving as the royal guards ensuring the safety of the palace and the monarch.
However, what surprised Xu Yang was the title this officer in the Tiger Corps used for him.
Hesitantly, he asked, puzzled, “General, do you know ?”
The general replied with a smile, “Celestial Master Xu, appointed by the Heavenly Emperor himself as the Heavenly Master of Jingming Sect, is a renowned figure among mortals, known far and wide. Who isn’t aware of you?”
If this was stated by soone from the martial world or an ordinary person, Xu Yang wouldn’t be too surprised.
He couldn’t help it.
His fa in the human world was truly extensive.
Even most foreigners had heard of him… It’s rumored that there’s a global organization, sothing like a dark web, with its origins in one of the three largest assassin organizations in the world. They even have a ranking of global experts.
Xu Yang happens to be the top-ranked!
But, it was a bit intriguing that the heroic spirits of Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum knew him.
“Older Brother Duan said the heroic spirits in Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum don’t move in the human realm… but it now appears that’s not entirely true. How else would they know about ?”
Xu Yang, deep in thought, asked, “General ng, I took the liberty of coming here to see His Majesty Emperor Qin Shi Huang. Would it be possible to facilitate this?”
This inquiry was mainly a probe.
To determine whether “Emperor Qin Shi Huang” was actually alive… or to say, living in a different life form within Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum.
ng Fan didn’t seem to catch the subtleties of Xu Yang’s probing.
He stated, “I was sent here to welco Celestial Master Xu… Celestial Master Xu, please proceed!”
He waved his hand.
A swish.
A portal, ford from the rolling Yin energy behind him, appeared.
The other side of the portal was shrouded in darkness, with no light in sight.
Confident and courageous as Xu Yang was, he strode directly into the portal.
As he stepped through the portal, the world in front of him transford swiftly to reveal a vast space with mountains, water bodies, the sun, the moon, and countless stars that ford a stretched-out “Heavenly River” in the sky.
The “Heavenly River” emitted a silver glow, extrely dazzling to behold.
As expected.
The interior of Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum was a gigantic pocket world.
The pocket world spanned around eight hundred miles, surrounded by mountains, with a vast plain in the center traversed by a long river running through the grasslands. The color of the river was similar to the “Heavenly River” above, both displaying a silver hue, seemingly a reflection of the celestial river.
In the middle of this plain stood a massive city.
Xu Yang had been to many pocket worlds and seen nurous structures within these worlds, yet he had never seen a city that could compare to the one before him. When he first saw this city, he felt that it was even more impregnable than the most formidable “base city” built by the Westerners!
The entire city exhibited a black hue, with tall city walls that were always patrolled by the heroic spirits day and night.
Multiple Daoist inscriptions surrounded the city walls.
Within the walls, a myriad of potent auras were concealed. With more than forty or fifty at the “Immortal Being” level alone, and so auras even reaching the “Golden Immortal” level.
In addition, within that city, Xu Yang also sensed a chilling sense of danger!
Clearly, there were other hidden threats within the city.
Xu Yang’s lips twitched slightly.
Previously, he entered Qin Shi Huang’s Mausoleum with the ntality of “the more skilled, the bolder.”
Thinking that even if there were dangers in the Mausoleum, he could still escape even if he couldn’t win.
Now, he was dumbfounded.
He forced a laugh, pointing at the sky and saying, “That silver ‘Heavenly River’ is quite unusual… General ng, are these celestial bodies in the sky transford by magical artifacts?”
“Yes.”
The heroic spirit officer responded, “The sun and the moon in the sky are both immortal artifacts, and the silver ‘Heavenly River’ was crafted from the residual material of the golden and iron magical objects collected by His Majesty when he created the twelve golden n and the Holy City. According to His Majesty, the ‘Heavenly River’ contains a formidable formation, capable of suppressing even a Golden Immortal… Celestial Master Xu, where are you going?”
Xu Yang: “Uh… I just rembered that I left so porridge cooking in my kitchen…”
ng Fan sternly replied: “No, Celestial Master Xu, you can’t leave… His Majesty sent to fetch you, and if I don’t bring you to him, His Majesty will surely punish .”
