Chapter 541: Chapter 253: Inside the True King’s Tomb (Thanks to yasimi_1/Demon-Powered Racecar)_3

The man in black from Xuan Shan remained impassive, not engaging in conversation.

Madam Zhuang whispered, "Xuan Shan, if we join forces, we should be able to overcome this blockheaded woman."

The man in black from Xuan Shan did not respond.

His Dao heart was tranquil, and he seemed unconcerned with the situation.

This time, Chen Shi’s visit to pay respects to these tomb-guarding beasts was aimed at the various cultivation techniques recorded on the stele.

In the past, he had merely glanced over them, but now he was heading to the Western Capital to take the exams, a journey that would take at least half a year, and it was uncertain when he would return. Therefore, he memorized these techniques first, to study them gradually on the road.

Outside the True King’s Tomb, steles stood like a forest, each one recording various cultivation techniques.

Stone Rock Lady, Madam Zhuang, and the man in black from Xuan Shan also passed through the small temple to view these techniques.

Being of different cultivational backgrounds, these techniques were of little use to them, but some of the Spells among them were extremely valuable, and they could take the opportunity to learn a few.

It took Chen Shi two days to memorize the various techniques recorded in the forest of steles. Just as he was about to leave, he impulsively glanced once more at the entrance to the True King’s Tomb.

"Back then, to save me, my grandfather broke into the True King’s Tomb from here and found the Immortal Technique, the Water and Fire Refining Technique, within the tomb."

He steadied his mind and found himself unconsciously walking towards the entrance of the True King’s Tomb, his heart pounding.

The Water and Fire Refining Technique, it’s an Immortal Technique!

By cultivating it, one could become a Corpse Resolving Immortal!

Inside the True King’s Tomb, there might be cultivation techniques of the same level, or even higher!

He approached the entrance of the True King’s Tomb, and the portal creaked open by itself.

A cold wind blew from the tomb, chilling to the bone.

He steadied himself again, about to step inside when suddenly a voice came from behind: "Holy Envoy, the seals and traps within the tomb are complex, please bring out the Jade Seal."

Chen Shi turned around to see that the Sheep-Horned Man-shaped tomb-guarding beast had reduced its size, but was still about ten feet tall, and had somehow moved silently to stand behind him.

"Holy Envoy?"

Chen Shi, surprised, took out the West King Jade Seal, which then flew up and hovered in front of him.

The Sheep-Horned Man-shaped tomb-guarding beast bent over and entered the tomb corridor ahead, speaking in a deep voice, "There are many seals, traps, and Magical Treasures within the tomb. One careless move can lead to death, even with the Jade Seal, there is a chance of dying here. I will lead the way, Holy Envoy, please follow me, and do not stray."

Chen Shi hadn’t expected it to be so amenable and immediately followed, asking, "I would like to learn an Immortal Technique, is that permissible?"

The Sheep-Horned Man-shaped tomb-guarding beast replied, "There are indeed Immortal Techniques within the tomb, but which techniques are Immortal Techniques, I do not know. The Holy Envoy must discern that for himself."

Chen Shi looked around; the corridor was about ten feet high and equally wide, its depth unfathomable. On both sides were vermilion murals and ever-lit lamps, along with many side chambers, both large and small.

The larger side chambers were as big as a room, while the smaller ones were only fist-sized.

These side chambers housed various peculiar Magical Treasures, connected by strange Arrays, constantly sweeping waves of energy over Chen Shi’s entire body, likely the Magical Treasures detecting friend or foe.

Without the West King Jade Seal, the moment one stepped into the corridor, these Magical Treasures would likely activate and bombard the intruder to death!

However, Chen Shi also saw that many side chambers and murals had been destroyed; some Magical Treasures had been flattened, others shattered into pieces, and some side chambers had collapsed, while some ever-lit lamps had been distorted and melted.

Beyond that, there were bodies scattered about, laying askew on the ground.

These corpses had handsome features and wore dazzling attire, even in death emitting incredibly strong auras, like Heavenly Gods.

The bodies had not rotted, but curiously, all of them had the same face.

"The destruction here was done by your grandfather."

The Sheep-Horned Man-shaped tomb-guarding beast, noticing his gaze, said, "He barged in that year, killing his way from outside to inside. We few brother beasts fought him within the corridor using the layout of the side chambers. These on the ground were his compatriots, slain by us."

"These are..."

Chen Shi, surprised by the Heavenly God-like bodies, suddenly had a revelation, "They are Heavenly Mechanism! Fu Shen Tianji!"

Ahead, the voice of the Sheep-Horned Man-shaped tomb-guarding beast came through, "Holy Envoy, we’ve arrived at the Book Collection Pavilion!"

Chen Shi stepped forward, when suddenly, one of the half-bodied Fu Shen Tianji on the ground moved slightly, its head turning half a circle on the ground, and upon seeing Chen Shi’s face, it said, "Chen Tang..."

The Sheep-Horned Man-shaped tomb-guarding beast was about to step down and crush him, but Chen Shi quickly said, "Don’t kill him!"
