Lu Cang scanned the earth with his senses.
Beneath the silvery-white sand lay Neherkato's mutilated corpse.
Instead of bringing Neherkato back to the guild, Bailu and the others buried her here.
Bringing an unfamiliar corpse back to the guild is a destabilizing factor.
No one knows if she will come back to life.
But as the last person to extend Lu Cang's life for a brief moment.
The members of the Godslayer Guild ultimately failed to completely destroy Nehercato's corpse.
Instead, they kept her alive in her post-mortem state.
Otherwise, as my brother instructed, weeds should be eradicated at their roots; after an enemy dies, their body should be completely destroyed, and their soul should be completely annihilated as much as possible.
Otherwise, there is always a possibility of resurrection.
However, the Godslayer Guild still harbors a sliver of hope for Neherkato's resurrection.
Perhaps, after Nehercato is resurrected, he will find a way to bring Lu Cang back.
Lu Cang placed his hand on the silvery-white ground, applying slight pressure.
Splash splash splash splash—
The fine sand split and rippled outwards.
"I'm sorry you had to go through this..."
Lu Cang approached Neherkato's side, revealing the remains of Neherkato buried deep underground.
They pulled Nehercato's body from the ground.
Then, he took out a crystal-like coffin from his backpack and sealed Nehercato's body inside.
It vanished in the next instant.
The entire process was extremely brief.
From the moment I arrived here to the moment I left, it took only two seconds.
-----------------
[Upper Realm - Deep Source of Ten Thousand Forests]
"Dig...dig...dig..."
when!
when!
when!
when!
A rat with shifty eyes wielded a golden hoe, chiseling away at the stone before it.
"eighty!"
"eighty!"
"One hundred and twenty!"
"While others are raiding dungeons, I'm digging graves; there's no better way to raid than digging graves!"
When the rat thief tried to rob the underground temple of Ansu in the mortal realm, he found it completely empty; the enormous tomb contained nothing at all.
Not long after returning, they encountered the great war between humans.
Being as timid as a mouse, it dared not participate in such an event and immediately turned around and found another tomb to hide in and continue robbing.
They ignored everything else and focused solely on digging for treasure in the tomb.
It robbed tombs in the lower realms, it robbed tombs during the human war, and it continued to rob tombs after the war ended. Then it mixed with its own race and went to the upper realms, where it continued to rob tombs. It robbed tombs when others were doing dungeons, and it robbed tombs when others were doing raids...
No matter what's happening outside, no matter how fierce the fighting or how big the event.
In its heart, there is only the one who dug this grave.
While digging, they sighed, "It's so hard to catch rats!"
"I heard that after Cang Qiong died, he left behind a lot of treasures. What a pity... how come such a talented person didn't even leave behind a tomb?"
"If there is a grave, I might as well dig it up a few times."
"No...no, no, that won't work either. If we dig now, his relatives and friends will definitely keep a close watch on him."
"It's better to dig up those who are completely dead. Those who are supposed to die are already dead, so there's less trouble."
As he dug, Shudaonan muttered to himself.
Its current strength is at the peak of a demigod.
The tombs it excavated all contained ancient artifacts that had been passed down for generations.
Come to think of it... where would a typical demigod have a tomb?
Only those of high status, great power, or even the head of a family or power, are said to have tombs after their death.
Otherwise, those demigods, like wandering ghosts, would be killed by a single booger flicked from the nose by other powerful beings in a great battle.
Does this even need to be buried?
Even if he is buried, what good stuff can be found on the body of such a demigod?
Therefore, there are places with tombs.
These are usually places with good things.
Moreover, most of these burial sites are inevitably related to Ansu.
Legend has it that the god of death places great importance on burial rites. Those who have elaborate burial rites can go to His divine kingdom after death, retain all the things they had in life, and have the opportunity to become His disciples.
Even after death, one can continue their life in the realm of the dead.
This is undoubtedly an alternative way to prolong life.
This is why there are still so many tombs in the world.
Otherwise... in this world where strength reigns supreme, what's the point of burying someone? Why keep their belongings in a tomb after death? They should have been passed down to their descendants long ago.
However, these kinds of tombs are usually well-protected and located in very hidden places. The mountains and rocks are also extremely solid, making them difficult for even ordinary demigods to destroy.
The pickaxe in the hands of the rat thief was quite a valuable tool.
A single swing of the pickaxe can smash through hundreds of meters of mixed gold and heavy rock.
Yes... hundreds of meters, not hundreds of kilometers.
Just as it was excitedly digging through the tomb, a hand landed on its shoulder.
"Hello."
The rat thief shuddered: "Wow!"
Looking back, he saw a man with the face of a middle-aged human.
"Who, you...who are you?!"
"Luo Heng".
The rat-thief looked at the man in front of him, who possessed demigod-like power.
The one with the same divine power as himself was indeed named Luo Heng.
However, it's not difficult to forge one's own information nowadays, as names are not reliable.
But in the end, it didn't know many humans.
It doesn't matter whether the other person uses their real name or a fake name.
What are you doing here?
"To raid tombs with you."
"With me?"
"Wait, how did you know I'm a tomb raider!"
"Otherwise what?"
"I...I...I just like digging holes, and I enjoy it, so what!"
Luo Heng laughed and said, "You mean you're not interested in Ansu's Nine-Turn Mausoleum?"
Upon hearing Luo Heng's description, Shu Daonan's lips twitched slightly.
This guy knows quite a lot of details.
Seeing that he couldn't hide it any longer, Rat Thief had no choice but to admit it openly: "Fine, I'm here to rob tombs, but if you want a share, you'll have to ask me, this expert tomb robber, if I'm willing."
Although Rat Thief has not run many dungeons.
If this person tries to steal the dungeon or monsters from me, I'll just let him have the dungeon.
But they would have to fight with themselves to rob the tomb.
So, even a rat thief has a lot of backbone...
In response to the rat's difficult behavior, Luo Heng smiled and casually threw a punch, smashing it horizontally against the heavy, solid rock beside him.
Just like that, a seemingly light punch.
boom!
A deafening roar was heard!
This solid, heavy rock, so solid that even a demigod could hardly damage it, was actually punched into a huge hole.
To the naked eye, it has been completely breached.
You can see the dark night sky in the distance.
It's difficult for rats to dig this far, but it took a whole day to dig tens of thousands of kilometers.
Are you willing?
The words of refusal that were on the tip of his tongue before the theft were all swallowed back down.
It bowed its head and smiled obsequiously, "Yes, yes, of course I'm willing."
The thief who stole the rat did have some backbone, but only a little.
If you say you don't want to, the place where that fist will strike next might not be mixed gold and heavy rock.
Luo Heng smiled and said, "You're lucky to have met me."
"Ansu's Nine Revolutions Death Tomb is not something you can casually lay your hands on."
While listening to Luo Heng's boasting, Shu Dao Nan thought to himself: I've explored many tombs, big and small, along the way, and I dug them all by myself. Why do I have to rely on others here?
In the fantasy world, tombs exist to set up certain rituals.
Rather, the tomb itself is a kind of ritual.
As long as you are familiar with the characteristics, function, and effect of the ritual, and do not touch or mess around, you will not trigger any danger, and you can even use the ritual of the tomb to strengthen yourself.
Shu Jie Nan is an expert in this field and has considerable confidence in his abilities.
Its confidence stems from the fact that, throughout its tomb raiding journey, the firsthand tomb raiding texts it has found have never failed to work.
The first sentence of this "Tomb Saint Robber's Text" is: "All tombs must be built in accordance with the rules and rites, and there are no exceptions, from mortal insects to true gods."
Even the true gods are no exception, so what's the big deal?
"If you don't believe me, then go in."
