Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

Yuan Shu's men were all high-ranking military officers, and they quickly rushed in. Yuan Shao did not stop them; after them, he led his officers in, and the soldiers that followed surged forward like a flood, rushing toward the ever-shrinking portal of light.

It didn't shrink very quickly; it took about half a cup of tea's time to completely shut off.

Lin Mu, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and others knew that the gates were closed, but they could still rush in and were not afraid of being completely trapped in the national treasury.

The battlefield, which had been relatively quiet, fell into chaos for a period of time before falling into complete silence.

The soldiers who failed to break through began to break camp and leave.

That's right, Yuan Shao gave them orders to evacuate the palace.

They not only evacuated the palace, but also the capital city and the Sili region, returning to Bohai County!

Meanwhile, in Yuan Shu's camp, which was located further away, the same thing was happening.

Even the soldiers who had collected all of the Yuan family's assets within the ruins of the Yuan family mansion began to withdraw.

This commotion caught the attention of the players who were still busy.

After so many days of excavation, almost all the meteorites in Luoyang have been gone, with only a few occasionally found in remote areas...

Those meteorites that crashed deep into the ground were all seized by the powerful factions. Even if ordinary players discovered them, they were either stolen or bought by the powerful factions, making them basically inaccessible to ordinary players.

As for the value of the meteorite, it had initially dropped slightly, but then Muhuang Group issued an announcement that there were 300,000 places to learn cultivation techniques, which directly boosted its value by a factor of 90.

The announcement sent shockwaves through the entire server. Players who had collected meteorites either formed teams overnight and rushed to Wenyuan Town in Dongye County, Kuaiji Prefecture, Yangzhou, or traded directly with the trading group of Muhuang Group to exchange for a chance to learn the cultivation technique.

The remaining, deeply buried meteorites, yet to be excavated, saw their value skyrocket, sparking hundreds of riots and bloody confrontations. This was solely because many of these meteorites had questionable provenance. Those whose meteorites were stolen immediately allied with other players of similar skill levels to reclaim them. After all, they were currently so close to obtaining a Xuan-level cultivation technique in the real world!

Pulled around and moved the whole body.

The bloody battle that took place in Luoyang, the capital of the world, indirectly began to affect the territorial disputes among players.

During this battle, the lord players discovered that when attacking other players' territories, there were no longer any system notifications about the laws, just like killing other players would not result in a red name!

And the same applies to encroaching on players' territories... no longer subject to being wanted by the county government troops!

Later, some players noticed that the millions of troops of the two warlords, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, were hastily retreating from Luoyang without looking back.

A strange sense of crisis welled up in my heart.

Ji Beiqin, Jiang Chenglong, and the others felt a terrifying killing intent pressing down on them. They immediately tried to contact Lin Mu, but found that they couldn't reach him; when they tried to send a video, the system indicated that he was in a special situation.

This intensified their unease...

For safety reasons, Ji Beiqin contacted Beitang Xue, Zhang Xueying, and others to begin evacuating Luoyang, the capital. However, the work of excavating the meteorite continued, with some ordinary players assigned to the task, while the main force had withdrawn.

The movements of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have already made some players vaguely sense that something is wrong. Now, even Ji Beiqin and Bei Tangxue are starting to retreat in a panic, and even the national team's Jiang Chenglong and others are leading their main forces to retreat quickly. This has made many players start to be vigilant.

Some savvy players have stopped being greedy and have started to distance themselves from the capital.

And so, the day after Lin Mu and the others entered that portal, the players began a large-scale evacuation.

After all, players know that in real history, Luoyang was burned to the ground by Dong Zhuo. But in the mythical world, the capital city of Luoyang survived the damage from a meteorite attack; its basic structure remained intact!

In other words, Dong Zhuo was plotting an even more terrifying plan to annihilate the capital city of Luoyang!

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's men have all fled, and you're still not running? How can you compare to them?!

However, money can be tempting, and the lords of those powerful factions who fled all paid high prices to persuade some players to stay and mine the meteorites.

So nearly half a million players are still working hard on the remaining deepest thousands of meteorite craters!

While the outside world was bustling with activity, a series of unexpected events were unfolding inside the portal.

……

……

As Lin Mu rushed into the portal of light, a powerful sense of compression washed over him. He felt as if he had been shoved into a narrow pipe, his internal organs displaced. The light and shadows shifted before his eyes, and a sharp buzzing filled his ears. He instinctively closed his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, the intense pressure suddenly disappeared, and Lin Mu felt a lightness in his body, as if he had fallen from a great height.

The familiar feeling of weightlessness disappeared, replaced by the comforting sensation of touch beneath his feet.

Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, and the others were tense, fully focused on their defense.

"Pfft!~~~" A vomiting sound came, and Huang Xu, who had never experienced such teleportation before, vomited.

Seeing this, his father, Huang Zhong, shook his head slightly. Zixing still needed more experience! However, this teleportation was indeed terrible; the teleportation channel seemed to be a complete mess…

Everyone opened their eyes to see what the much-anticipated Epang Palace looked like!

However, what came into view was not Liu Bei and Zhang Fei's ambush troops, nor mountains of treasures, but only a sky full of white fog!

The view ahead was completely obscured!

Just then, a system notification that sent chills down Lin Mu's spine suddenly rang in his ears:

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have entered a special scene: [Epang Palace - Tomb of Emperor Ling of Han, the Dragon Lord]!"

"Holy shit!!!!" Lin Mu couldn't help but curse after hearing the system notification, his face turning ashen.

The national treasury he expected did not appear; instead, it turned into Liu Hong's tomb!
Tombs are generally considered inauspicious places. If a dragon lord enters one, at best he will be tainted with heavy karma, at worst his dragon fortune will weaken, or even his life will be endangered!

The most terrifying thing is that the owner of this tomb was none other than Liu Hong, who had only been dead for a short time!

Lin Mu had a very deep connection with Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, and the mere mention of his tomb sent chills down his spine!

A peculiar thought involuntarily surfaced in his mind: Could this Epang Palace be a trap set against him?!
Could this whole scheme have been orchestrated by the national guardian beast, the Crimson Dragon, and Liu Hong?!
He even had the urge to just leave... but his sense of crisis didn't detect anything unusual; it was just his imagination playing tricks on him.

"My lord, what's wrong?" Huang Zhong asked in a low voice. "This place feels eerie. Is something unusual?"

"This is the Epang Palace, but it is also the tomb of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, the Dragon Lord!!!" Lin Mu took a deep breath, the breath carrying a sense of decay and coldness that made his heart tremble.

Upon hearing this, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Wang Yue, and the others all simultaneously narrowed their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief.

The tomb of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, should be in the imperial mausoleum! It can only be, or it already is, in the imperial mausoleum! After all, many people witnessed his funeral and saw his coffin being carried in.

So what is this Epang Palace? Is it the second tomb palace of Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong?

Lin Mu was completely clueless about this. If he had known beforehand, he would definitely have brought Wu Ba and the others along. After all, they were professionals in this field.

At this moment, Wang Yue's expression was also very complicated, with reminiscence, emotion, and gratitude... No matter what, Liu Hong was still very good to him.

Standing in the tomb of his benefactor, he suddenly felt a pang of guilt. This made him want to retreat.

But right now, we haven't found a way to get rid of it!
Lin Mu can summon the Heavenly Cloud Ranking and have Xun You and others outside summon it there, which is considered as going out.

Having finally found this place, it would be unbecoming of him to cower and shrink back based solely on his benefactor Liu Hongzhi's past!

"Clatter! Clatter!" Just then, the sound of feet landing came from the side. It was clear that Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and the others had also entered.

"How could this be?" Guan Yu's familiar voice came.

Judging from the sound, Guan Yu was standing not far away, about ten zhang away.

Even at such a short distance, they couldn't see anything, which shows how thick the fog was...

"What? How is this possible? Why is this happening? That person's tomb?!" Just then, another thud was heard.

A moment later, Yuan Shu's familiar voice rang out. However, his tone, like Lin Mu's, was one of extreme shock and surprise.

Clearly, Yuan Shu also received a message from Heaven, indicating the situation here.

"My lord, which way do we go now?" Dian Wei asked in a low voice.

I thought there would be a big battle when I came in, but I didn't expect to be unable to see anything and even lose my sense of direction.

"Don't move. I sense a faint killing intent ahead," Lin Mu said, waving his hand.

"Ah! Ah! My hand!~~"

"Ah! Something swallowed my foot! Help me, help me..."

"My lord, please don't come any closer! Something is corroding our bodies..."

Just then, a series of wails came from Yuan Shu's side.

Even the highly skilled and daring Dian Wei and Huang Zhong dared not take a step upon hearing this...

"Try an attack!" Lin Mu whispered to Taishi Ci.

"Take it easy!" Lin Mu paused, then gave a special instruction. (End of Chapter)
