Several people couldn't help but be alarmed. They had come for the unknown land, and any unknown land was something that countless people longed for. Once the news spread, it would attract experts from all over the world to flock there.
Wu Liang looked at the group with a puzzled expression, seemingly not understanding their strong reaction: "The imperial tomb contains many burial objects, all of which are extremely valuable. What else could it be but a treasure trove?"
Everyone: "..."
Zuan wasn't sure if he was telling the truth or pretending, but he didn't have time to think about it now, so he led him down another path.
The map we obtained from the Suihou Tomb only roughly showed that the unknown place was within this imperial mausoleum, but its exact location was not marked.
Thinking about it, it's understandable. This map probably existed even longer than the demon royal tomb. Back then, there was no royal tomb, so the surrounding terrain has changed, and the map has naturally lost its meaning. They'll have to find it themselves.
Along the way, the group searched everywhere, hoping to find something unusual.
Wu Liang, on the other hand, thrived in the imperial mausoleum's side chambers, plundering the burial goods there.
Most of them are gold and jade ornaments, and there are also some treasures made of high-grade elemental stones.
Seeing his greedy appearance, Zu'an and the others couldn't help but sigh that they had worried too much.
Yan Xuehen was well-versed in array formations and runes. She had been searching everywhere, but unfortunately, although she found some hidden mechanisms, none of them were related to the unknown land.
Soon, the group of people suddenly felt a bright light in their eyes, and the space in front of them suddenly opened up.
The crowd was momentarily stunned, thinking for a moment that they had already left the imperial tomb.
Because before us lie the sun, moon, stars, rivers, lakes, and seas.
“This is…” Yun Jianyue gasped in surprise.
Yu Yanluo, still shocked, explained, "This is a miniature version of the world's mountains and rivers."
She was skilled at painting, and her secret weapon was the "Thousand Miles of Mountains and Seas Map". She was very familiar with the world's territory and rivers, so she recognized it at a glance.
"And this was the territory of the demon race at its peak," Yun Jianyue sneered. "Now, most of this land has been taken over by the human race, and the demon race is still living in a dream."
Wu Liang looked at him strangely: "Is the girl human or a demon? Your stance is a bit off."
Yun Jianyue gave him a cold glance, and Wu Liang shivered, not daring to ask any more questions.
Zuan couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions. He had only seen the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas in Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum in history books before, but he never expected to see them in the mausoleum of the demon race today.
At this moment, Wu Liang looked at the sun, moon and stars in the sky with eager anticipation: "These are at least Heaven-grade Yuan Stones, maybe even Immortal-grade, and they're so big. If I could pick them down, I'd be rich."
Yan Xuehen said coldly, "These are made to look like the sun, moon and stars, and are surrounded by arrays. If we forcibly take them down, it will definitely trigger an alarm at the imperial tomb, and then no one will survive."
"I know, I know, can't I just talk about it?" Wu Liang said, somewhat frustrated, with a look of heartache on his face, as if he had passed a treasure trove but couldn't find a way in.
"There's a huge lake here!" Yu Yanluo exclaimed. "Wow, it's flowing water!"
Generally speaking, lakes and rivers in tombs are usually replaced with mercury or similar substances to preserve them for a long time. This not only prevents them from decaying for thousands of years but also releases toxic gases, thus protecting the tomb.
The others were also somewhat surprised and rushed over to check, and sure enough, it was real water.
“I understand now. Mausoleums are designed to conceal wind and gather water, so water is very important. It’s just that ordinary people don’t have the same boldness as the Demon Emperor to find such a large and inexhaustible water source,” Wu Liang explained. “The Golden Crow royal family belongs to the fire element, which can be described as extremely strong and yang. As the saying goes, isolated yang cannot produce life, and isolated yin cannot grow. Yin and yang must be in harmony. This water vein is used to balance the yin and yang of the royal mausoleum. Tsk tsk tsk, the person who designed this royal mausoleum must have been a genius…”
Wu Liang spoke eloquently, and Zu An and the others listened with admiration. This guy really had some skills; the Mountain Clan were truly experts among experts when it came to tomb raiding.
Yun Jianyue leaned closer to Zu An and whispered, "Little An, do you think that unknown place might be hidden in this lake?"

Zu An nodded: "I had the same guess. Here's what we'll do, I'll go down and take a look. You guys keep an eye on Wu Liang."
He possesses the skills of a blue geese, and is naturally drawn to water, making him the most suitable candidate for swimming.
"Don't worry, how could I not keep an eye on a mere fat Taoist priest?" Yun Jianyue snorted. "You should be careful underwater."
Zuan originally wanted to remind her that Wu Liang was somewhat unusual, but considering her status as a Grandmaster, he felt that he was worrying too much.
He quickly jumped into the water and began searching the bottom of the lake.
The other three women waited on the shore. Yun Jianyue appeared indifferent, but secretly kept an eye on Wu Liang. However, he was very obedient and did not make any unusual moves.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, ripples appeared on the water's surface, and then Zu'an burst out of the water.
"How is it?" the three women asked hurriedly.
Zuan shook his head: "I just searched the whole place, and even checked the bottom of the lake, but there was no hidden door or passage."
"What are you looking for?" Wu Liang asked curiously.
"It's none of your business." Yun Jianyue glared at him.
Wu Liang chuckled, looking like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
"Where could it be? We've already searched most of the imperial mausoleum," Yun Jianyue said, frowning.
At this moment, Wu Liang said quietly, "Although I don't know what you're looking for, there's one place in this imperial mausoleum that you haven't looked for yet."
