The howl, like that of a demon, terrified me. Fortunately, it was already surrounded by fire and was only struggling temporarily. Its eyes stared at us viciously, black liquid kept flowing from its wide-open mouth, and a set of sharp teeth gleamed with a chilling light.
Back in the tomb chamber, looking at the Shu King's tomb before us, we were all at a loss. How could we possibly crack the Qimen Dunjia (a form of divination and strategy)? Only by robbing this tomb might we be able to find a crack in this age-old mystery.
Xiang Fei then asked, "All Yin-Yang formations are inseparable from Yin and Yang energies. Although Qimen Dunjia is profound, it is also based on Yin-Yang formations. I think as long as we decipher the flow of Yin and Yang energies, then Qimen Dunjia will naturally be broken."
Having said that, he looked up.
"Cough cough, don't look at me. I'm only at the beginner level when it comes to Yin-Yang Feng Shui. I can't break the formation set up by this Yin-Yang Master at all. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been trapped inside last time."
"You're wrong. Last time it was because you went in recklessly. This magic array has to be broken from the outside, which is one of its strengths. If everyone who comes here goes in, they will be trapped to death. Now we are outside, so you might as well give it a try."
Xiang Fei and I remained silent for a while, and finally nodded in agreement. At least now that the three of us are together, we can handle any ghosts. As for the Blood Fiend, that's up to Black Cat.
We turned on our headlamps and jumped into the Thousand-Layer Hanging Coffins. Most of the place had collapsed, with broken coffins everywhere and the mummified corpses in tatters.
We explored step by step until we reached the end. I looked up and exclaimed, "Hey, where did that black wooden coffin go?"
Clearly, Xiang Fei and the black cat also realized something was wrong and quickly ran over to investigate.
Then I noticed that the figure wearing a bronze mask in the mural on the cliff next to me was also gone. I thought I was seeing things, so I rubbed my eyes, but it was still gone.
A chill ran down my spine. "Could he have left on his own?"
Suddenly, a wriggling sound came from the collapsed hanging coffins behind us. Black Cat immediately said, "Let's go up quickly." After saying that, he led the way and ran towards the iron chain. Xiang Fei and I didn't have time to ask any questions and followed him. We grabbed the iron chain and climbed up.
The dilapidated hanging coffins below began to wriggle, and then, to our horror, one after another, mummified corpses crawled out, just like the ones we had seen when we came in, only these were much more dilapidated, some were crawling with only half their bodies, and some were headless.
