Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens

Long Tian'ao ultimately did not end up with his beloved Bai Yueguang.

His first love, the one he cherished, chose to marry a man from a family with an even better background than his.

Heartbroken, Long Tian'ao continued to look for a body double, but was soon reprimanded by his own father.

His biological father arranged a marriage for him; his wife was a very strong and capable woman who could keep Long Tian'ao in check.

Han Xinying approached Liu Dong and Liu Xu, hoping they could help her.

Han Xinying: "Our target this time is Pearl City."

As an archaeologist, Liu Xu naturally knew about Mingzhu City.

That was a city established two thousand years ago by the Tara tribe, a clan from the Western Regions.

The Tara tribe was the most powerful tribe in the Western Regions at that time, and other tribes had to submit to them.

The Tara tribe plundered the wealth of other tribes and built a very beautiful and magnificent city in the Western Regions: Pearl City.

However, it is possible that the Tara tribe angered the heavens, causing Pearl City to be buried by sandstorms overnight and disappear from the world forever.

For over a thousand years, many people have sought to find Pearl City.

But no one has found it even in modern times.

This time, Han Xinying's research group studied a lot of data and determined the approximate location of Mingzhu City.

Their group went there and, luckily, found the Pearl City buried under the yellow sand.

But they were also very unlucky.

After entering the underground city, they encountered many deadly dangers.

Almost the entire archaeological team perished in the underground city, and Han Xinying escaped only thanks to her meager supernatural power.

What happened here falls under the jurisdiction of a special department.

Han Xinying contacted a special department.

Special agencies sent people to investigate.

Those who came were all quite capable, managing to evade the various deadly traps in the dungeon and enter its center.

But as soon as they entered, everyone felt their internal energy draining away.

When the power is exhausted, what will be lost are the lives of everyone.

It seemed as if something was devouring everyone's strength and life.

The group hurriedly left the dungeon, only to find that the loss of power and life force had not stopped, but the speed had slowed down considerably.

A mark appeared on everyone's body.

A colleague in the special department, who had studied curses, recognized it as a curse.

Only by breaking the curse can everyone's power and lives be prevented from being further devoured by something in the dungeon.

However, the colleague only recognized it as a curse but didn't know how to break it. He only suggested two methods: one was to enter the dungeon, find the entity that was devouring the curse, and destroy it, and the curse would naturally be broken; the other was to find someone who had studied curses to see if they could break the curse.

The special department contacted many people who had studied curses, but none of them could solve the curse.

Seeing that the power of a group of colleagues who were cursed was about to be completely devoured and their lives were threatened, the special department decided to send an elite team into the very center of the dungeon to find the main body that was devouring them.

Han Xinying will go along as a guide.

She was also cursed, but she had more power within her than others, and divine power had a certain restraining effect on the curse, which allowed her to live a lively life.

The elites who were with Han Xinying were no stronger than her, and Han Xinying was worried that they would not be able to destroy the Devouring Main Body.

Han Xinying thought of Liu Xu and his brother.

Although I don't know exactly how strong these two are, they should be stronger than her.

So, Han Xinying went to find the two of them.

Liu Xu was interested in Mingzhu City, and as an archaeologist, he wanted to excavate the ancient city himself.

Liu Dong had been feeling rather bored lately, so he decided to go see what was causing trouble and pass the time. Although the two brothers weren't part of the special department, the higher-ups there knew about them.

Therefore, without any hindrance, the two successfully joined the elite squad.

First, we flew to a city on the edge of the desert, and then took a desert off-road vehicle to the location of Pearl City.

With Han Xinying pointing the way, the group didn't waste too much time on the road and arrived at Mingzhu City.

The magnetic field here is extremely chaotic, and the communication devices on the technology side have all failed.

Fortunately, everyone had talismans that allowed them to communicate with each other.

After getting ready, the group entered the dungeon.

They saw a pile of bones.

Han Xinying said sadly, "They were my colleagues. After we finish dealing with things in the city center, we'll collect their remains and take them home."

Someone asked, "They've only been dead for less than half a month, right? How could they have turned into skeletons so quickly?"

Another person said, "It's poison. Didn't you see? Those bones are all bluish-green."

Han Xinying nodded: "It's poison gas. Everyone be careful, don't inhale the poison gas."

Everyone present possessed cultivation, and upon hearing Han Xinying's words, they immediately shut off their external breathing and switched to internal breathing.

At this moment, the mechanisms in the underground city also began to spew out poisonous gas.

However, if people don't inhale the poisonous gas, it will have no effect.

The group successfully passed through the gas-filled area. Liu Tong used her divine sense to locate the mechanisms that emitted the gas and informed the others.

The group destroyed the mechanism.

Next, the group encountered members of the archaeological team who had been frozen into ice sculptures.

After examining them, Liu Tong said, "They still have the breath of life."

These people were frozen into ice sculptures so quickly that their breath was trapped inside their bodies, which prevented them from dying.

These people can survive if they are thawed quickly and given emergency treatment.

This is good news.

Han Xinying perked up; some of her students were among them!
The ice silkworm that freezes people into ice sculptures is a legendary creature.

Don't let its small size fool you; it's about the size of your palm, but it can freeze a person into an ice cube with a single breath.

Liu Xu sealed the Ice Silkworm.

This was a good thing, but Liu Xu didn't keep it for himself. Instead, he gave it to a special department for scientists to study.

In modern society, science and metaphysics can coexist. Metaphysics is also a kind of science, and it can be studied by scientists.

Next, the group solved one puzzle after another and finally entered the center of the underground city.

As soon as she entered, Han Xinying let out a muffled groan and knelt down on the ground.

Liu Xu immediately came to her side, used his spiritual power to draw a talisman, and slapped it on Han Xinying's body.

The flow of power from Han Xinying's body was interrupted. She took a deep breath and thanked Liu Xu.

Liu Dong then took out several talismans from her spatial storage and distributed them to the other members of the team.

Once each person receives the talisman, it is activated, forming a faint golden protective shield within their body.

The creature lurking in the shadows was unable to unleash its curse upon the group, nor could it devour their power and life force.

This greatly agitated it, causing it to let out a sharp cry.

The group exchanged glances and rushed toward the sound of the shout.

They saw a desiccated corpse wearing a crown, staring at them with resentment and covetousness. (End of Chapter)
