The atmosphere throughout the venue fell silent for a moment. Everyone watched Li Mo, who, as if no one else was present, took Han Xianzi’s other hand, their expressions varied, mostly dumbfounded.

What the hell for safety.

Where did this underground palace entrance look like it had a shifting Formation?

Among the crowd, the Disciples of Horizontal Cloud Sword City were expressionless, silently moving a little further away.

“Junior Brother, aren’t we going up to greet Li Shaoxia?”

Wei Zhaoliu was stunned; her hair had now grown back to ear-length.

Hmm, since Ying Bing wasn’t in Horizontal Cloud Sword City, she didn’t need to shave her hair every day to show her resolve.

She turned her head, looking at her Junior Brothers who had all become mere passersby, and couldn’t help but feel strange, as she thought Li Mo was quite a good person.

“Senior Sister, aren’t you full?”

Wu Chushu grimaced, feeling a sour ache in his teeth.

“Why would it be sour?”

“Can’t you smell the sour stench of that dog food at all? And you’re still going to eat it.”

“What is dog food?”

Wei Zhaoliu looked bewildered.

It was Bai Jinghong who understood this sword-obsessed Senior Sister better, and he said seriously:

“Senior Sister, when you see Miss Ying make a move later, your hair won’t be safe again.”

“......”

Wei Zhaoliu was silent for a moment, then nodded:

“It is indeed not appropriate to go up and greet them at this time.”

Not long after, a gust of foul wind suddenly blew from the deep, dark entrance of the underground palace, and faint, non-human roars could be heard.

“What is that sound?”

Everyone who heard the sound felt a chill in their hearts.

For a moment, many {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} people swallowed, looking at the deep, dark entrance of the underground palace, feeling as if it could devour people.

“Let us enter.”

Jiang Yu was the first to step into the entrance of the underground palace.

Tan Zhuyin was initially afraid of danger within and unwilling to be the one to test it, but now seeing Jiang Yu enter, he feared the other party would get there first. freёwebnovel.com

So he gave Li Mo a sinister glance and led his people into the underground palace as well.

“That sound...could it be a zombie?”

Li Mo pondered, holding Ice Cube’s hand.

“Zombie? That term isn’t entirely accurate.” Ying Bing shook her head gently.

“Yes, to be precise, it’s a special existence among zombies.”

A voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Li Mo raised an eyebrow; hearing this voice always made him feel annoyed. He was clearly a gentle Young Master, so who could make him annoyed just by their voice?

“Li Shaoxia, we meet again.”

Tian Miao revealed a pale smile.

“You... why are you here?”

“I followed the guidance of the Heavens and came to your side.”

Tian Miao started speaking like an old riddle-teller, and the type that was very annoying.

“Li Shaoxia, you might find the nickname on the Qianlong Ranking not very pleasant, but that is Master’s intention. She, an elder, values Karma, and there must be a reason for her to do so.”

Li Mo narrowed his eyes: “You better have something important if you’re looking for me.”

That’s why riddle-tellers are so annoying.

What’s even more headache-inducing is that the riddle-teller isn’t just being pretentious, but actually has real ability.

“I wish to explore the tomb, so I want to go with you,” Tian Miao said seriously.

“Then why don’t you go with the Crown Prince? Why come with us?”

“No, going with you is better.”

“Then give me a reason to let you come along.”

Li Mo was afraid he wouldn’t be able to resist pulling out Forty midway and hitting her in the back of the head.

“I am knowledgeable enough, and I understand Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Feng Shui and mechanism arts, and I can also divine good and bad fortune.”

Tian Miao pointed to the deep, dark cave entrance:

“For example, those ‘Ba’ in the tomb.”

“Ba?”

Tian Miao spoke unhurriedly, discussing ancient knowledge.

Such beings are neither demon nor ghost, nor living creatures, but Physical Bodies without Yi Soul existence, preserved from decay by the nourishment of Spiritual Qi, and driven by unwillingness or lingering thoughts in their hearts.

Ordinary zombies usually absorb the Spiritual Qi of the sun and moon, but they have been extinct in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths for a long time.

Ba, on the other hand, absorb Spiritual Qi, growing stronger and developing various divine abilities.

For example, those that cause severe drought upon appearing are called Han Ba, also the most well-known type.

There are also Huo Ba, which ignite raging fires, and Di Ba, which cause earthquakes.

But the most troublesome for the Human Race is the Ji Ba, which causes great famine upon its appearance...

“Stop! I roughly understand. Welcome to the team.”

Li Mo waved his hand, indicating there was no need for further words.

The Tianming Divine Eye, after all, had its limitations; it could only see people, or at least those who had initially taken human form, such as Senior Brother Xiaobao....

He hadn't been idle just now either, using the Tianming Divine Eye to scan everyone present.

Among them, those worth remembering were the few from Horizontal Cloud Sword City, and several blue, blue-with-purple, and even purple investment targets.

Of course, there was also one coming for him.

【Name: Zhu Renji】

【Age: 56】

【Bone Structure: Yin and Yang Hidden Killing Body.】

【Realm: Outer Scenery First Heaven.】

【Heavenly Mandate: Blue with Purple】

【Evaluation: Since childhood, he was mocked for his eye disease, so at the age of ten, he killed those who mocked him. At thirteen, he became a bandit, but was later expelled for often failing to distinguish between friend and foe. Coinciding with the Rain Listening Pavilion’s Wu Jian Trial, he joined the Rain Listening Pavilion.

Later, he successfully assassinated the Eldest Young Master of Thunder Strike Fortress, known in the Jianghu as ‘indiscriminate killer, leaving no one alive.’ Hearing that the Demon Summoning Sect’s Yin Yang Hall could cure various difficult and complicated diseases, he left the Rain Listening Pavilion and joined the Demon Summoning Sect.】

From a bandit to an assassin to a member of a Demonic Sect.

Well, his life was getting more and more criminal.

【Recent Encounter: Received two side jobs, both to assassinate Li Mo and Ying Bing, decided to kill two birds with one stone.】

“Outer Scenery Realm...”

Li Mo watched the other party’s back disappear into the entrance of the underground palace.

A moment later, most of those remaining were hesitant Jianghu wanderers.

Li Mo also put away his small notebook, and the three of them went down into the underground palace together.

Initially very narrow, just enough for a person to pass through...

Well, the entrance was actually quite large, but the dark space appeared even more vast and empty. So many people had entered just now, but now not even footsteps could be heard.

Only the footsteps of three people echoed, so silent that their heartbeats could be heard.

Li Mo took out a luminous pearl, dispelling the thick darkness.

As far as his eyes could see, he still couldn’t spot a single person.

“Where are all those people?”

Li Mo couldn’t help but mutter in his heart.

Tian Miao pondered for a moment and said: “They are not in the same underground palace.”

“?”

Li Mo turned to look at the entrance of the underground palace, but found that behind him it had become pitch black, without a trace of light.

Ying Bing gripped her sword with one hand: “This underground palace... is moving.”

A moving maze?

This underground palace, which had been buried deep underground for many years, was still moving to this day?

“We should be going to the main tomb chamber.”

Xiao Li recalled the tomb-raiding novels he had read in his previous life.

Tian Miao looked at him in surprise, nodded, and the ornaments in her hair jingled slightly:

“Now what we need to confirm is which period this tomb belongs to.”

“The layout and structure of large tombs from different eras vary greatly, not to mention this underground palace is still moving.”

Tian Miao’s eyes lit up, and she said excitedly:

“If we can’t find a solution for this place, then...” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

“We might be trapped here, never to see the light of day again.”

Li Mo: “?”

So what are you excited about?
