"Boom!"
The two tightly closed palace gates were pushed open by that small group of men.
Everyone immediately looked towards the palace.
The palace was not dark, but rather exceptionally bright, because the walls of the palace were inlaid with jewels the size of goose eggs that emitted a soft glow.
It was the presence of these precious jewels that made the palace so bright.
"Those precious stones are all top-grade spirit stones that have been modified!"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
One top-grade spirit stone is equivalent to 1 million low-grade spirit stones.
There are more than a hundred top-grade spirit stones embedded in the walls of this palace, and they are all about twice the size of ordinary top-grade spirit stones.
That's roughly equivalent to 300 million low-grade spirit stones.
Of course, using over 100 top-grade spirit stones to transform into lighting tools is extravagant, but after seeing the spiritual herbs within those bubble worlds, everyone can accept it.
Everyone's eyes were searching for other treasures inside the palace.
The most striking feature is a sheathless jade sword placed on a low table at the far end of the palace.
This jade sword looks ordinary and doesn't emit any special aura, but don't forget that this imperial tomb was built a million years ago.
In other words, this jade sword has existed for millions of years.
Even ordinary spiritual treasures would find it difficult to remain imperishable for millions of years, so this jade sword must be a treasure!
In addition, eight lifeless puppets dressed in armor stood on either side of the palace.
Everyone subconsciously believed that the danger inside the palace was these eight armored puppets.
"Holy Son, shall we go in now?"
The five-person team stopped in front of the palace, and one of them asked the leader, Ning Xingdao.
Ning Xing was a holy son of a second-rate sect in Zhongzhou, with a cultivation level of the first stage of the Nascent Soul realm. His teammate was also a true disciple of an elder from the same sect.
"We'll stand outside the hall and attack those armored golems, one person taking on two!"
Ning Xing said in a deep voice.
So, the five-person team unleashed their special weapons.
Just as their magical artifacts were about to pass through the palace gates, they were blocked by an invisible energy. No matter how they bombarded it, they could not break through that invisible energy.
They then tried using magic and supernatural powers, but with the same result.
"Holy Son, it seems we must go inside to obtain the jade sword!"
"Alright, once we're inside, I'll go and seize the jade sword. You guys help me hold off the armored puppet. Once we have the jade sword, we'll retreat immediately!"
"good!"
None of the four elders had any objections.
The next moment, the five of them rushed into the main hall without being stopped!
Although this hall is large, it is only a step away for a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Ning Xing took a step and arrived at the low table at the end of the hall, then reached out and grabbed the jade sword.
But just as his hand touched the jade sword...
A streak of emerald green sword energy shot out from the jade sword.
Ning Xing reacted quickly, instantly constructing several layers of spiritual energy shields to cover himself, and his figure retreated in that instant. At the same time, he also prepared to summon a defensive spiritual treasure.
But the sword energy emitted by the jade sword was even more powerful than he had imagined. With a soft "poof," it pierced through the spiritual energy shield he had constructed, then easily pierced through his head, shredding his sea of consciousness into dust!
"Thump!"
Ning Xing's body fell from mid-air with a dull thud.
The four people who had been on guard against the eight armored puppets discovered that the eight armored puppets had not moved at all.
In other words...
They misjudged the situation; the danger within the hall was the jade sword, not the eight armored puppets.
"Take the Holy Son's body and retreat!"
An elder disciple shouted, reached out and grabbed Ning Xing's corpse, and was about to rush out of the main hall.
But the moment he grabbed Ning Xing's corpse, a emerald green sword aura flew out from his body and pierced the elder's brow with a soft thud. In an instant, the elder also turned into a corpse and fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the other three disciples who were still inside the hall were dumbfounded, and then fled the hall without a second thought.
Those who remained outside the main hall witnessed this scene and their eyes flashed with deep apprehension. Many even felt fear, knowing that Ning Xing was at the first level of the Nascent Soul stage.
Yet he died so easily.
"Brother, if you were the one entering the palace, could you block that sword energy?"
Xiahou Meng asked about Xiahou Jian.
"It's hard to say!"
Xiahou Jian shook his head, but he decided that after entering the main hall, he would immediately release his spiritual treasure to protect himself, so as not to die an unclear death like Ning Xing.
Anyway, he felt it was a waste for Ning Xing to die; he was completely framed and killed.
Of course, the elder disciple who wanted to take his body away died even more unjustly, for who knew that Ning Xing still had residual sword energy in his body.
"Junior Brother Gao, what are your plans?"
At this moment, Xiao Yanran walked up to Gao Yan and asked.
"I don't know, let's observe first before making a decision!"
Gao Yan said that he was not very interested in the treasures in the palace; what interested him was the spirit stones.
It is worth mentioning that Xiao Chen and Xiao Feng, two of the four Xiao family members who had previously toured Fushuang City with him, did not reach this place. They may have perished on the way to the pass, or they may have left the Emperor's Tomb through the Gate of Life.
Therefore, neither of them is the main character.
"Too!"
Xiao Yanran nodded.
Fifteen minutes passed, and another team prepared to enter the palace to seize the treasure.
Their team pushed open the door to the palace next to the one they had just entered.
Everyone looked on curiously and found that the layout of the palace was similar to the previous one, with a painting hanging on the wall at the far end of the palace.
