Chapter 578 Ying Tianxian took great pains

The three of them had a creepy feeling that they were being watched.

The third sister continued to add: "It is precisely because of this legend that there are very few Qiongqi coming to the Qiongqi Tomb. This is a place that none of the people of the same clan are willing to come to, as they are worried about disturbing the sleeping ancient Qiongqi."

"But you don't have to be afraid. I've been here several times. Although I felt like I was being watched, that was all. Once I entered the tomb below, the feeling disappeared."

"In history, the Qiongqi tribe has produced several people who have reached the Tribulation Crossing stage. They all came to the Qiongqi Tomb to check if their ancestor, the Ancient Qiongqi, was really sleeping there, but they all found nothing. They all said that the Ancient Qiongqi's cultivation was far superior to theirs, and that they, the unworthy descendants, were not qualified to investigate the situation of their ancestor."

In the demon clan, the one in the fusion stage is called the king, and the one in the tribulation stage is called the emperor. The Qiongqi clan has given birth to several people in the tribulation stage, which means that several demon emperors have been born. This is a very terrifying number.

The Qiongqi clan is considered the pinnacle of "tiger monsters". Its reputation has even spread to the Central Continent, giving rise to the idiom "like adding wings to a tiger", which shows how powerful the Qiongqi clan is.

"Acknowledged by several Qiongqi Demon Kings, the Ancient Qiongqi is recognized as the strongest being among the Qiongqi tribe."

Lu Yang: “…”

Third sister, please don’t say any more. I’m afraid that after you know the truth, you will insult the immortals, which will increase the difficulty of overcoming the tribulation.

Fairy Yingtian is really capable of causing trouble.

"Ying Tianxian said that when a person lives, he should not only pay attention to his reputation while alive, but also his reputation after death. That's why he developed this formation to leave a legend for future generations."

"In addition to Qiongqi, he should have built this formation in the ancestral tombs of Kunpeng, Taowu, Suzaku and other races. He didn't build more. If he built more, it wouldn't highlight the mystery."

The great formation has lasted for 300,000 years without being damaged and can still scare people. This shows how high the quality of the formation produced by Ying Tianxian is. To put it another way, it shows how much he cares about this matter.

"Besides, in order to form a legend and prevent future generations from knowing the truth, the matter of the tomb formation was covered up and became a secret."

Judging from the fact that the Qiongqi people did not dare to approach the tomb, the formation has indeed become a secret.

"...Ying Tianxian is quite helpful."

Lu Yang racked his brains to find words to praise Ying Tianxian so as to reduce the danger when undergoing the tribulation.

"It's not that I just want to help others. Think about it, whether it's Old Qiongqi or Old Kunpeng, they are both the ancient demons you mentioned, with boundless magic power, right?"

"No matter how powerful your magic is, it's impossible to be as powerful as an immortal."

"The more mysterious Old Qiongqi and the others are, the more powerful we five ancient immortals will be, right?"

Fairy, please stop talking. If you continue, I’m afraid I will really have disrespectful thoughts towards the celestial being.

Similar to Meng Jingzhou's method of exercising his willpower, Lu Yang was also exercising his willpower while listening to ancient history.

When the three of them entered the tomb of Qiongqi, the feeling of being watched disappeared and their psychological pressure was reduced sharply.

"This is……"

There are many murals inside the Qiongqi Tomb, most of which have been ravaged by time and have become dilapidated.

The pigments used to paint the murals are extremely valuable, and it is no exaggeration to say that each drop is worth a thousand gold. Even so, the murals have been unable to withstand the baptism of time and have become like this. This shows how old the Qiongqi tribe and the Qiongqi Tomb are.

Lu Yang saw a little Qiongqi on the mural, with wet fur, obviously just born. Then the little Qiongqi ran forward, gradually grew bigger, reached its prime, gradually aged, its fur fell off, its body became bulging, and it died.

The end of death is the tomb of Qiongqi.

The murals also describe many major historical events of the Qiongqi tribe, which are regarded as honors by the Qiongqi tribe and must be remembered at all times.

Above the mural, there is a line of ancient text: Death is not the end, I have witnessed your glorious life.

"This is the text left by the ancient Qiongqi, and is regarded as a spiritual pillar by the Qiongqi tribe. Because of this, the Qiongqi tribe is not afraid of death and is very open-minded."

The third sister is indeed a professional archaeologist, and she is well versed in all kinds of cultures of the demon race.

"Could this sentence also be written by Ying Tianxian?"

"No, this is Old Qiongqi's free play. Ying Tianxian can't help all of them think of a sentence, which will easily lead to homogeneity and be discovered by others."

Ying Tianxian is rigorous and thoughtful in his work.

"Senior sister, where is the base you mentioned?"

“It’s almost there.”

The tomb was pitch black and as complicated as a maze. It was easy to get lost in the tomb if you were not led by an elder of the Qiongqi tribe.

I don’t know how Third Senior Sister found out the structure of the Qiongqi Tomb.

The three of them walked about two miles before they finished the corridor. The third sister knocked on the wall tiles, and a secret door opened, motioning for the two to follow.

Lu Yang noticed that there were many arrow feathers pointing outward on the walls of the dark room and immediately understood.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

There are many mechanisms in the tomb of Qiongqi. This is one of the mechanism rooms. If you step on the wrong place, thousands of arrows will be fired at the intruder to death.

After the shooting, the arrow feathers were used up and needed to be replenished, so the mechanism room was built, which was also the place where the three people stayed.

"Senior sister, can you even find a place like this?"

The two were very surprised. It would have been fine if they hid in a tomb, but they hid in the mechanism room of the tomb. Who would have thought that someone was hiding here? No wonder the third sister swore that it was safe to hide in the Qiongqi tribe.

The three of them rested here for a few hours and adjusted their state. Although they had the invisibility talisman and were not afraid of being discovered, it was very energy-consuming to maintain the invisible state all the time. The third sister was fine, but Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had been using the invisibility talisman for almost a day. They had to rest after walking from the branch tribe to the Tomb of Qiongqi.

The two of them fell asleep in the control room.

While the two were sleeping, the third sister took out paper, ink, brush and inkstone and wrote down what had happened in the past few days.

She wrote down her experiences in the Demon Realm into "Observations in the Demon Realm", and has completed eight volumes. She is currently working on the ninth volume.

After just a brief encounter, she was certain that this junior fellow apprentice knew more about ancient history than she did.

With the presence of her junior fellow apprentice who is well versed in ancient history, she believes that the content of this ninth volume will be even richer than the previous eight volumes.

“Hmm…”

She heard the noises from Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou and was about to wake up, so she put away her study supplies and sat quietly.

Lu Yang and the other person slept for three full hours. After waking up, they felt clear-headed and refreshed.

"You're awake. That's great. I'll take you to the main tomb. It's said that the ancient Qiongqi is buried there."

"It is said?"

The third sister nodded, put the guqin on her back, tied the string at the end of the guqin to her chest, and tied a black cloth around her eyes, looking like a hermit walking out of a bamboo forest.

She explained: "At least the ancient Qiongqi's coffin is there. As for whether there is really a Qiongqi lying inside, I don't know. But this has nothing to do with us. We are here to do archaeology, not to rob tombs."

As a professional scholar, the third sister adheres to the concept of seeing is believing.

The second update will be at 11 o'clock (try your best)
