When Hunjun begins to make elixirs

Chapter 225 Imperial Tomb of Barren Mountain
In the past, Zhuge Zhenglong traveled thousands of mountains to find the truth about cultivation. He learned about the secret realm from Hu Minyi. He came to the Fairy Island, got inspiration from the Fairy Island, and found Dalong. But no one knew that he was still in Dalong. Know the secret of Taizu.

When he joined Dalong, Xu Chengping was not dead yet, and the Shenmu Sect uprising was only a plan insisted on by a small group of people.Xu Chengping led Dalong Warlock to study the transformation of dragon veins.As a genius of the Zhuge family, Zhuge Zhenglong was very knowledgeable in the battle method, so Xu Chengping made an exception and was allowed to join the team.

As the research continued to deepen, Zhuge Zhenglong also discovered the problem of the Nine Dragon Veins. Combined with the distribution of the Nine Dragon Veins across the country, coupled with the analysis of the mountains and terrain, it seemed to be a deliberately arranged formation to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.At that time, he was still young and arrogant. He was shocked by this courage to take the world as his center, and thus developed a mentality to find out.

After all, he is an outsider to Dalong, and a lot of information is kept secret from him.However, he had a good relationship with one person and used this as a breakthrough to learn how Dalong obtained the Dragon Vein Treasure Map. That person was Dugu Xing.

Dugu Xing was also a genius who was proficient in formations. He was younger than Zhuge Zhenglong at the time. He was highly valued by Xu Chengping and participated in many operations.Among them is the search for the dragon vein treasure map.But the good times did not last long. When Xu Chengping died, Dalong's internal high-level officials changed their course. What followed was the ostracism of them, the second generation of Yinlong's mixed blood and the Yin traitors who were purely from Dalong.Zhuge Zhenglong and he were both eliminated from the research team.Therefore, two people with the same disease had close communication during that time.

Zhuge Zhenglong learned from Dugu Xing the location where the treasure map looking for the dragon vein was found.He went out to explore alone out of curiosity, but he didn't expect that this would be the beginning of his fall into the abyss.

Zhuge Zhenglong knelt in front of the barren mountain for a long time, until the mountain opened wide and a crack appeared.When he walked into it, there were numerous white bones exposed on both sides. They were all burial objects of Emperor Taizu. This was the real mausoleum of Emperor Taizu of Dayin.If there is truth, then there must be lies. Even the Dayin royal family does not know that the Yin Xiaoling Mausoleum they worship is just a tomb of doubt.

The location of this mausoleum is exactly where the center of the formation formed by nine dragon veins is.He thought of the shock he had received when he first arrived.The moon is in the sky, and there is a faint ghost fire. Every white bone seems to be alive. The empty eye sockets on the skull are flashing with red light. The crunching sound of bones rubbing against each other makes people feel like there are thousands of ants crawling all over their body. Same.The soil reflected scarlet light in the moonlight, and the road underfoot looked like the tongue of a hanged man.

At that time, he was still young and strode in with his courage. But now, even though it was daytime, he kept his head down and walked cautiously.It's not that he doesn't have the courage he once had, it's just that his heart is full of desire and he's afraid of going too hasty and letting it go.

The underground palace has no gate, or in other words, this barren mountain is its door, and there are no mechanisms to allow unimpeded entry.The ever-burning lamp in the underground palace that stays on all year round cannot illuminate the environment inside. The strong yin energy seems to be able to corrode people's bone marrow.

Arriving at a large hall, there were no luxurious furnishings. There were only three hundred mysterious stone coffins neatly displayed inside, which was extremely depressing.There is a dragon chair placed on the high platform, carved with several dragons of different shapes, but each dragon has no eyes, which is very strange.There was a mummy sitting on the chair. It looked like he was very old when he died. He was wearing a dragon robe and holding a crown.There are two stone platforms on the left and right where things are placed. The stone platform on the left is empty, and a sword is placed on the right.

Zhuge Zhenglong stepped forward and bowed his head in salute: "My minister, Zhuge Zhenglong, pays homage to Emperor Taizu."

A dark wind blew in the hall, mixed with the laughter of men and women, which lingered for a long time.Zhuge Zhenglong did not raise his head.The mummy in front of him opened his eyes, his cloudy eyes were empty and lifeless.

The mummy said, "How dare you come back?" There was no emotion in the voice, and it sounded like someone was pouring sand into your ears.

Zhuge Zhenglong said: "The world is already in chaos, and I will come here to reply as agreed."

The mummy's sharp nails scratched on the dragon chair, making a squeaking sound: "Reply to the decree? You almost ruined my important event!"

Zhuge Zhenglong's expression changed slightly: "I wonder what I did wrong?"

The mummy said: "Who asked you to attack Li Chang! You made him into a ghost king and asked him to use the dragon soul to bind the curse! My plan was completely disrupted by you!" Zhuge Zhenglong broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly explained: "I don't know about it. This is an order given to me by Dalong's people. I have to do it in order to gain a foothold among Dalong warlocks."

The mummy sneered and said: "You obeyed the orders of that kid Huasheng. Although it is now confirmed that he was the one who took away the body of Dalong Shenzong, would you have taken him seriously at that time? I think you have developed a desire for the emperor's power. Curiosity, maybe on purpose.”

Zhuge Zhenglong was said to have a central idea, and what was even more horrifying was the familiarity of the person in front of him with external things.This proves that they have spies outside and are quite a powerful force.They were used to describe him here because he suspected that the mummy, or the person who made the sound, was not Taizu Dayin. To be honest, Zhuge Zhenglong had never seen the human soul and dragon soul of Taizu Dayin.

He has been here three times, and each time he has given orders through the mummy in front of him.Then did he ever doubt that Taizu Dayin still existed?No, because he had witnessed with his own eyes that the mummy came out of the tomb and used dragon energy to kill Xu Chengping.Although he later learned that it was dragon energy, the murderer was the mummy in front of him.So he is also very conflicted.He speculated that the mummy might be the remains of Taizu, but the person controlling the mummy was not Taizu's soul.

"I am willing to accept the punishment!"

The mummy let out a shrill laugh, and then countless undead emerged from the roof of the hall. Zhuge Zhenglong closed his eyes, and a trace of fear suddenly arose in his heart that had been as calm as an ancient well for many years.

The dead souls entered his body crazily.He let out a wail of agony.The memory of that year was reawakened. He was not born ruthless. Just because of a thought, he stepped out of this place and let him experience the pain of thousands of ghosts and souls as he does now. This is not only physical pain, but the dead souls enter the body. They are still alive. At that time, the pain he had experienced, whether it was physical or mental, would be experienced again by him.

Those who suffer this kind of torture are like falling into a sea of ​​endless suffering and experiencing tribulations for eternity.

After Zhuge Zhenglong's torture was completed, his eyes became colder.

The mummy said: "Fortunately, I still have a remedy. Now, go find Li Shun, find a way to get close to him, and find out the number of dragon souls in his body!"

Zhuge Zhenglong replied: "Li Shun is suspicious by nature and will never let strangers get too close. Moreover, he is no longer what he used to be. I am no match for him. He can kill me with one finger!"

The mummy raised his hand slightly, and the sword on the right automatically flew to Zhuge Zhenglong: "If you find someone to hold this sword and act as the guardian of the dragon vein, he will definitely take the bait and guide him to open the dragon vein treasure. As for you, originally The mission must continue to be carried out. Chaos in the world is only the first step. Now that Li Shun has defeated Mo Mu, the world will return to peace. You must mobilize the power of the Xianjun royal family and let them participate to maintain the situation."

"I understand! I obey your order!"

Zhuge Zhenglong picked up his sword and retreated silently when he saw that the mummy stopped talking.
