The Mausoleum of the First Emperor, as the tomb of the greatest emperor in history, has not been excavated much. Although the First Emperor was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, he was a member of the Gao family after all. He had also been the emperor of the Xia Dynasty and had made some contributions to the Xia Dynasty. Therefore, the underground palace of the imperial mausoleum has not been allowed to be excavated. Even if it was officially allowed, no one dared to dig it, because there were magic arrays everywhere in the underground palace, and the cultivators on Earth were simply unable to resist it at their current level.
Chen Siqi and her friends started taking photos crazily again, marveling at the lifelike Terracotta Warriors.
Looking at these terracotta warriors, Li Mu fell into deep thought. As a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, with a lifespan of a thousand years, and with a very high talent for cultivation, he must have a promising future. Why would he go to such great lengths to build a mausoleum of such specifications? Even if he built a mausoleum, it was too early, wasn't it? This was irrational!
"You guys go and have fun first, we'll be back soon!" Li Mu said to Chen Siqi and the others.
"Oh, go ahead!" Li Mu and his daughter have been acting mysterious these days. Chen Siqi has long been accustomed to it and waved her hand impatiently.
Li Mu brought Li Yunxi to an empty corner, then disappeared. The next moment, he appeared in a huge underground palace. This was the underground palace of the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, the core of the entire imperial mausoleum.
Even in the airtight underground palace, there is still some faint light falling from the top of the palace. Looking up, one can see countless glowing gems inlaid on the dome more than ten meters high. The outermost part of the underground palace is surrounded by a river of mercury. Due to the volatilization of mercury and the closed structure of the underground palace, the air in the palace contains a large amount of mercury. Ordinary monks who break in can only suffer regret.
These mercury-containing gases are naturally not a threat to Li Mu. Although Li Yunxi's cultivation is suppressed now, her body is also a quasi-immortal emperor. Even if it is also suppressed, it is not a threat from this poisonous gas. However, Li Mu still cast a protective barrier around her body, because the threat of this underground palace is not only from mercury. Li Yunxi felt quite aggrieved about this. She is a quasi-immortal emperor, but she even needs a barrier to protect her when exploring the tomb of an emperor of the lower world empire.
In the center of the underground palace is a sarcophagus suspended in the air. This is where the body of the First Emperor is stored. Of course, Li Mu knew that the First Emperor was not in it.
"It's just the tomb of a low-level cultivator. What's so good about it?" Li Yunxi frowned.
"Haha, according to my guess, this place shouldn't be that simple." Li Mu laughed and stepped into the depths of the underground palace.
Li Yunxi did not follow. Although she had lost her cultivation, she still had some knowledge. She had long seen that there were a large number of killing formations in the underground palace. Since Li Mu had already gone there, there was no need for her to take risks.
Sure enough, the moment Li Mu stepped in, the gems on the dome emitted countless rays of light, focusing on Li Mu. Ordinary cultivators would be instantly reduced to ashes if hit by this light. Li Mu ignored them and let them hit his body without any harm.
These lights seemed to be interesting, and they stopped attacking when they saw that they could not do anything to Li Mu. However, arrows flew out from the underground palace walls, all of which were made of black iron and flew towards Li Mu accurately. Li Mu waved his hand and gathered all the arrows shot at him into a ball, and then put them into his Qiankun Ring. He thought about handing them over to Yin Zhilong and distributing them to the Dragon Soul members when the time comes. After all, there are not many weapons made of these low-grade black iron.
In this way, Li Mu broke through several killing arrays one by one, came to the sarcophagus, and gently touched it open. As expected, there were no human corpses in the sarcophagus except some precious jewels. Li Mu carefully checked the sarcophagus underground palace and still found nothing.
Even though he had already scanned the underground palace with his spiritual sense, he was still a little disappointed at this moment. This looked like an ordinary emperor's tomb, but he somehow felt that it was not that simple.
Just when Li Mu was frowning, Li Yunxi frowned: "There is something wrong with the floor tiles."
Li Mu was puzzled and looked at Li Yunxi.
Li Yunxi took off the hairpin on her head, handed it to Li Mu and said: "The material used for these floor tiles is exactly the same as this hairpin!"
Li Mu took the hairpin and took a closer look at it, then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. This hairpin was given to Li Yunxi by himself 20,000 years ago. At that time, the girl sneered at his kindness, but he didn't expect that she would carry it with her all the time.
Li Yunxi knew what Li Mu was thinking, but she didn't care. She said, "The material of this hairpin is very special. After injecting it with a specific spiritual energy, even I, at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, cannot see its internal structure clearly. If I observe it with my spiritual sense, I will directly avoid its interior and observe other things behind it, as if it is invisible."
Then Li Yunxi told Li Mu the proportion of injecting spiritual energy.
Li Mu tried it and it was indeed the case. He also took it seriously. When he was traveling around the world, he accidentally discovered this strange material. At that time, he thought it was very beautiful, so he took a piece of the material and made this hairpin to give to Li Yunxi. As for the deeper things, he did not study it. He did not expect that this material could have such a strange effect.
It was certainly not a coincidence that this underground palace was paved with this material. Li Mu acted quickly. After a while, Li Mu discovered something strange under the floor. After passing through layers of obstacles, a larger underground palace appeared in Li Mu's mind.
Li Mu did not bring Li Yunxi with him this time. Everything here was too weird. There were things that even the Quasi-Immortal Emperor could not see through. He was not even sure whether his original body could see through these weird materials. This was simply not something that cultivators of this level on Earth could access.
Entering the large palace, it seemed quite quiet, without any trace of killing array. It was also surrounded by rivers. After seeing the composition of the river, Li Mu was not calm, it was all the laws of the Great Dao!
Just as Li Mu was stunned, a terracotta warrior in the middle of the underground palace moved. His eyes moved slightly, then opened, and his body shook slightly. The mud wrapped around his body turned into ashes, and a man dressed as an ancient general suddenly appeared in front of Li Mu.
"I am Wang Jian, the seat of His Majesty the First Emperor, and I have been ordered to wait for the immortal here!" The man saluted as soon as he saw Li Mu.
"Oh~?" Li Mu was surprised. Wang Jian didn't play by the rules! Not only did he not attack him to death, but he was also so respectful to him!
"There is no need to be surprised, Immortal. His Majesty the First Emperor had already predicted your arrival more than two thousand years later, and ordered me to wait for you here." Wang Jian explained.
