I wonder what kind of mechanism is inside that can control the heavy stone door; one has to admire the wisdom of the ancient designers.
"Be careful, there's a high chance there are traps inside," Chairman Fang warned the group.
The advisor nodded in agreement, clearly noticing the oddity in the situation.
The advisor picked up a stone from the ground and threw it forcefully at a dent in the wall in the distance.
When the stone struck the wall, countless arrows shot out from the walls of the cemetery corridor, their force so great that they even embedded themselves into the opposite wall.
"People in the past were really naive to play such childish tricks."
He then walked inside with his hands behind his back.
The group was slightly taken aback and stepped forward to examine the hole in the wall that had been hit by an arrow.
The arrowheads were sharpened to an extremely fine point and had barbs on them. Even if the arrow didn't kill the person, they would bleed to death because they dared not pull it out.
Upon entering, one discovers that the tomb is a maze of interconnected passageways. Perhaps due to its age, the walls and floor are covered in moss, and the air smells somewhat rotten.
In such a confined space, the oxygen is very thin, and the feeling of stuffiness is enough to make one feel uncomfortable.
"Watch out, something's coming!" Senior Jiang, who hadn't spoken until now, called out to warn them.
I looked up and saw a swarm of flying insects flying towards us.
Upon closer inspection, I realized these were not ordinary insects; their mouths were covered with sharp teeth!
"You ignorant fool! Heaven-Burning Technique!" A deafening roar exploded in my ears.
It was Senior Jiang who intervened to stop the insects. He used his signature technique, the Burning Heaven Technique, which is based on yang fire and is extremely effective against yin and evil things.
"There are actually these kinds of insects here. It looks like someone deliberately put them here. Otherwise, who would want their corpse to be eaten by these insects?"
"Slap! Slap! Slap!"
A clapping sound rang out from the corner; I hadn't noticed before that a man in black robes was standing there.
"I never expected you guys could track me all the way here. I must say, you guys are really impressive!"
"If it weren't for the fact that the sect leader is more skilled, you would have actually caught us."
The advisor stepped forward and sneered twice: "Did you run away ahead of time? I thought I could finally get some exercise for this old body today."
"Is your leader leaving you here to tell us that we can't find him?"
"But you're quite the cannon fodder, you didn't even run away, you're still here waiting for us."
"What, do you want this old man to play with you?"
The man in black robes was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he looked contemptuous and said, "You should mind your own business."
His eyes were filled with malice, and I couldn't see the slightest fear in them, which made me feel a little uneasy.
