Divine Brilliance

Chapter 593: Underground Main Tomb

Wise words were hard to accept, if this person didn’t want to listen then he had no choice, he would just be destined to be a normal and ordinary person.

However, in a few moments, Ruotao spoke out, “The Extreme Purple Pill should be flawed pills crafted by the pill makers under the Qin emperor! I heard he had another pill along with it called the Extreme Purple Spiritual Essence. It was such that anyone who was Celestial Realm and below and wasn’t dead would be cured. It was said that it was even effective on Celestial Realm people...”

Zong Shou’s heart jumped, it cured anyone who didn’t die.

It didn’t sound as exaggerated as being able to help the dead grow back flesh, however, it still sounded really extraordinary.

Beneath the Saint Realm... as long as one wasn’t dead yet, no matter what kinds of injuries they had, even poisons or symptoms, it would be all cured. In this world, how many pills were able to achieve this feat?

This Ruotao was returning the favor? Interesting!

He was originally only slightly interested in the Extreme Purple Pill, however, it was now something that he had to get.

With Yiren there, Ruoshui shouldn’t fall. However, it still wasn’t bad to have a little bit of insurance.

These thoughts were rising up in his mind as Zong Shou immediately felt another rumbling within the cave, it was a mountain shaking, trembling-like commotion.

At the start, he thought that there were people fighting within the underground tomb. However, moments later, he felt that it wasn’t right.

It continued for a long while, it surpassed dozens of breaths and still hadn’t stopped.

Everyone exchanged glances, their hearts were resonating with each other. Even at this moment, there were still many items that were buried, however, no one cared about them. They all dashed out, and quickly flew through the tunnels towards the direction of where the rumbling came from.

Everyone had all knowingly or unknowingly, looked towards Zong Shou, he was at the back of the group and headed over at a casual pace.

Xiao Xiangzi and Wuxuan were already forcefully taken down by Zong Shou. There were also these people, Jueyu and Yuan Wushang.

They didn’t need to think about the Avici Throne and the Extreme Purple Pill. If the Book of Universe appeared they also couldn’t take it.

They could only hope that the Xiang King’s tomb wouldn’t only have a few items. Or else, these people would have to snatch it against one another just so that they would have a chance.

After 140 breaths later, the rumbling sound finally ceased, at the same time, they finally found the source of it.

They saw that at the bottom of the underground maze, the originally stable and hard floor had already totally collapsed.

What was revealed underneath was an extremely wide underground space, however, it was actually a dark lake. It looked extremely huge, if one casually looked around, they wouldn’t be able to see the edges.

Everyone looked towards the center of the lake, they saw a 200 thousand feet large stone island.

At an area above the island, there was a stone platform that looked both simple and majestic.

A few large flags were placed around it, there was a single person sitting on the platform.

Beneath the platform, there were 18 thousand sets of armor placed in an orderly manner. Some were really perfect whilst some were damaged and incomplete.

They all fell forward, almost like humans that were kneeling down and praying.

Li Wuhui saw that Zong Shou was filled with questions, he smiled and kindly explained to him, “In the past, after the Xiangchu Overlord killed himself and his subjects were buried along with him, their weapons and armor were all collected and buried together. As expected, the rumors were true...”

Zong Shou looked carefully and felt that it was such a waste. The Xiang Family Iron Cavalry under the Overlord... Their fame wasn’t any weaker than the Blood Cloud Cavalry.

Only when he used his spiritual sense to scout just now did he realize that these artifacts were either totally corrupted, decayed, or completely broken, utterly unable to be used.

Even if he took them back, he would be unable to find a proper usage for them. No wonder the person who forced the Xiang King to kill himself was so generous.

He knew that even if people gathered up these items, the Xiang Family Iron Cavalry wouldn’t be built once more.

After shaking his head, Zong Shou heard that the cultivators were all discussing something.

“So, the main tomb was actually here, no wonder we couldn’t find it no matter how hard we tried...”

“If we could find this place earlier, then those things wouldn’t have happened.”

“Who knows who it was that opened this place up? Apart from that person who could forcefully collapse this area. It isn’t something that someone with normal strength could do!”

Zong Shou was also feeling quite curious. Who was it that caused this place to collapse? Following after, he heard someone exclaim, “Where’s the corpse of the Xiang King?”

“That’s weird! Is this still the sub tomb?”

“Where is the Extreme Purple Pill and Avici Throne?”

Zong Shou gazed towards the highest point of the platform. His expression was also startled as he saw that what sat on the throne wasn’t a human or a corpse, but was a wooden puppet.

As for the pill and the throne, they were all missing.

His brows rose. In the next instant, he saw three people rush up from the depths of the lake.

The one at the helm was Shui Lingbo. The two behind him were Leidong and Jin Buhui.

Just as Zong Shou was felt weird, the two behind Shui Lingbo were slightly delighted and walked over towards him.

The former gave a bitter smile and explained, “My luck wasn’t that good, I was caught by this Shui Lingbo and forced to do tough labor...”

His tone was filled with rage.

Jin Buhui smiled. “However, the Taiyuan Fairy is as the rumors have said, she really is generous!”

As expected, they gained many benefits while following her.

At this moment, Leidong felt that the situation was weird, Feng Taiji’s expression was really ugly.

Moreover, Wuxuan and Xiao Xiangzi had already disappeared.

There were only the Daoling Vast Habitat and Sky Demon Vast Habitat Grade-nine cultivators here, however, their expressions were also a little weird.

“What happened?”

Leidong frowned and asked curiously, “Where’s Wuxuan and Xiao Xiangzi?”

He didn’t hide his voice or tried to avoid any suspicion. Wuji and the others had a really dark expression on their faces.

Only Yuan Wushang gave out a cold and arrogant laugh. “Of course they’re dead! They pissed off this fellow and their heads were chopped off. Their heads are now hiding in this fellow’s bag.”

Leidong was slightly shocked as he looked at Zong Shou with a questioning expression. Only to see the latter nodded his head as a sign of admission.

He couldn’t help but take in a deep and cold breath. He also roughly guessed what happened on Feng Taiji’s side.

He definitely couldn’t make out the difference in their strengths...

A person who he had looked down on was actually far stronger than him, he was so strong that he could easily suppress him. If it was him, he would be the same and be unable to take it.

Following after, Yuan Wushang laughed coldly. “As for your Junior Brother, he couldn’t block a single sword from me, what a disappointment.”

Leidong’s brows rose and was a little unhappy. However, a moment later, he suppressed it.

At this moment, if he responded to Yuan Wushang’s provocation, he would more or less suffer defeat. He needed to borrow Zong Shou’s strength, this was why he didn’t do anything.

Even if he wanted to reclaim the name of their Sword Sect, he would do it openly with dignity.

Following which, he sighed, he wasn’t the only one within the Sword Sect that knew the identity of Zong Shou and Tanqiu.

Many seniors knew about the trade between the Sword Sect’s head and the Common People’s Path’s revered one.

One could easily foresee that once this matter spreads out, the sect would be in an uproar and people would be unhappy.

Using Zong Shou to trade for Feng Taiji, this trade really wasn’t worth it.

The Sword Sect’s head really took a huge loss on that deal.

He also felt pitiful for Feng Taiji. He should’ve been the pride of the heavens, but when compared to Zong Shou, he was just an inferior product.

After returning to the Ten Thousand Sword Vast Habitat, his days wouldn’t be too good.

There would definitely be many unhappy people who would take this chance to cause problems.

Zong Shou wasn’t willing to speak too much about that matter, and directly asked, “Where did you all come from? What did you find in that lake?”

“It’s an underground dark river! The ground’s layer was due to the Taiyuan Fairy breaking the restrictions! As for beneath the lake, we went around but we didn’t find any clues.”

Leidong said this while looking at Shui Lingbo, the latter was in deep thought as she thought about something. Leidong’s voice was filled with a mocking laugh, “Or maybe Fairy Shui did obtain something...”

Shui Lingbo turned around and viciously stared down at Leidong. After looking at Zong Shou, she was slightly surprised and nodded her head as a form of respect. She did this before turning around like she was confused about something.

At this moment, everyone who was present here were filled with doubts, they were either thinking something in their heads or discussing some matters with someone else.

Zong Shou was also looking around the area, trying to find any small clue that was overlooked.

Since there were so many ancient armors and weapons lined up, this was most probably the main tomb.

However... Where were the Extreme Purple Pill and the Avici tomb?

And also the numerous treasures that should’ve been here, the Book of Universe included...

He had no idea. At this point, two more people walked over, they were an old monk and a short-haired teen.

The former was the Ten Thousand Buddha Vast Habitat’s Zifang, and the latter was Jingyin.

What made one feel weird was that Jingyin usually treated him nicely. She wasn’t too friendly nor did she hate him, for some reason, she always maintained a certain distance.

However, at this moment, she was furiously staring at him like she was looking at an enemy.

It made Zong Shou completely confused. It wasn’t like he did something to offend this little nun who came back to society. Recently, he also didn’t do much to offend the heavens, so why was Jingyin like this?

After the two of them exchanged glances did Jingyin seem to realize that her actions were a little inappropriate.

She was being furious for no reason, because of this, she suddenly lowered her head and started chanting scriptures.

“Since there were the Universe World Creation Records, would the Xiang King tomb be hidden in that space?”

“That’s impossible! Within the thousands of years that the Xiang King died, the records appeared several times. They weren’t from the same generation. How could the book hide the tomb? Preposterous!”

“Did the Gantian Mountain Monster King already take it?”

“Bullshit! Keep quiet!”

Just as everyone was discussing, Zhao Yanran suddenly softly mutter.

“How weird! The central dynasty followed certain rules and procedures for tombs. For example, regarding this Soldier Viewing Platform, there should’ve been only 81 levels, however, why did I count 82?”

The moment she said this, everyone was shaken back to their senses. Shui Lingbo was first to act and quickly slapped out, the energy swept through ten thousand feet. It completely smashed the platform along with the wooden person on it into pieces!

In an instant, the entire underground lake shone a colorful light.
