My understanding is incredible: I gained enlightenment and immortality in the Kunlun Demon Kingdom

"Okay, I promise to give you food, but first tell me where you are from? And how did you become so powerful all of a sudden?" Chen Ze asked. This girl was really mysterious. There were too many mysteries about her.

"I... I don't know either. I woke up here and I didn't know where to go. Then I came across this ancient tomb. There were many treasures and various talismans in the tomb. I followed the instructions to break the seal. I didn't expect that it would trigger the ban, so I..."

"So someone was hurt? Do you know how dangerous those talismans are? If they are not triggered properly, it is easy to catch fire and burn yourself. What if you can't control yourself and lose your mind?" Chen Ze said seriously.

"I didn't mean it! I just wanted to take some things back to exchange for money to buy clothes." The girl said, obviously not realizing her mistake.

"You haven't told me your name yet?" Chen Ze said.

"Chen Xi, Chen Xi"

The two of them bickered all the way and unknowingly walked to the entrance of the valley the girl mentioned. Chen Ze looked up.

"What are you going to do?" Chen Xi looked at Chen Ze warily.

“I want to go in!
"No!"

"Then I won't care about you anymore. You'll just have to fend for yourself!" Chen Ze pretended to leave.

"Don't go, I'll go with you!" Chen Xi gritted his teeth and decided to follow Chen Ze in.

"You said it, don't accuse me of bullying you later." Chen Ze glanced at Chen Xi and said.

"Yeah!" Chen Xi nodded heavily.

Chen Ze took the lead and walked into the depths of the valley, followed by Chen Xi. When they reached the middle of the mountain, Chen Ze found a painting on the stone wall in front of him. It was a lifelike portrait of an old man.

The old man was wearing a Taoist robe and holding a whisk in his hand, exuding an air of immortality.

Although this painting has been hanging on the stone wall for some time, it is still well preserved. Chen Ze poked it with his finger, but the painting did not move at all, not even when his fingernail scratched it.

Chen Ze continued to move forward. After walking a few hundred meters, Chen Ze stopped. The scene in front of him was completely beyond Chen Ze's imagination.

What caught Chen Ze's eyes was a passage about three or four meters wide.

"This road seems to lead to an underground palace!" Chen Ze said in surprise. He didn't expect that there would be an underground palace in this world.

Chen Ze turned to look at Chen Xi and found that she was also looking at him, "Let's go!"

Chen Xi nodded and followed Chen Ze into the passage. The two successfully reached the end of the passage. At the end of the passage was a stone chamber, and this stone chamber was where the girl's parents lived.

But at this moment, the stone chamber was in a mess. There were many marks of impact on the walls, and there was even a pool of dark red blood on the floor. It was obvious that this was caused by Chen Xi.

Chen Ze carefully checked the furnishings in the stone chamber and found nothing unusual.

Then Chen Ze turned his attention to the pool of dark red blood on the ground, which gave off a faint fishy smell.

"Stay here and don't walk around!" Chen Ze gave instructions and left the stone chamber, leaving Chen Xi with a confused look on his face. Chen Xi had no idea what was going on.

Chen Ze searched along the blood trail but found nothing else.

Chen Ze returned to the stone chamber, and Chen Xi had been waiting for Chen Ze.

"I didn't find any valuable clues." Chen Ze said.

"Ah? Is that so?" Chen Xi looked disappointed.

Chen Ze patted Chen Xi's shoulder and said, "I'm leaving first!"

"Ah...wait, I'll go with you!"

"I told you to stay here." Chen Ze insisted. "I don't want to be alone." Chen Xi said coquettishly. "Be obedient!" Chen Ze scolded, then turned and left.

"Ah..." Chen Xi stood there and sighed.

"Hey, why are you still here? I told you not to follow me!" Chen Ze said when he saw Chen Xi still standing there.

"I was afraid you would abandon me, so I stayed outside." Chen Xi said aggrievedly. "It's up to you, but if you encounter zombies you must run away, otherwise I will kill you, believe it or not?" Chen Ze said coldly.

Chen Ze didn't like being involved in unnecessary troubles. If Chen Xi was just an ordinary person, Chen Ze might have saved her and taken her away.

But Chen Ze was not sure about Chen Xi's goal. What if she just wanted revenge, or came in just for fun? Wouldn't Chen Ze be in big trouble?

Chen Xi didn't say anything, but just stayed where he was.

Chen Ze walked alone to an open space at the end of the cave and sat down to rest. Chen Xi didn't know what Chen Ze was thinking.

The two of them came in here together, but Chen Ze didn't get any treasure and almost died. Chen Xi also had a narrow escape.

But Chen Xi didn't seem to regret it at all. Instead, she was very happy, as if Chen Ze had helped her fulfill a long-cherished wish.

Chen Ze sat there, resting his eyes with his hands on his head.

"Hey, you said you are from the ghost tribe, is that true? Why do I feel like you are a thief?" Chen Ze suddenly opened his eyes and asked.

Chen Xi was shocked when he heard this. "What nonsense are you talking about? What ghost clan or not? I am a human!"

"Then why do you look like a zombie?" Chen Ze asked curiously.

"Who told you that I look like a zombie? I am naturally beautiful!" Chen Xi argued.

"Okay, you're not a good person anyway." Chen Ze didn't have a good impression of this girl, not only because she dressed too differently, but more importantly, the girl's style of doing things made Chen Ze feel that she was unreliable.

"How am I unreliable?" Chen Xi was dissatisfied. She would not allow others to slander her.

"Why did your family build the coffin in the cave? And there is no mechanism or formation here. Don't you find it strange?" Chen Ze asked back.

"How do you know there are no mechanisms or formations?" Chen Xi blurted out.

"Because these formations are very simple, there is only one formation to trap the enemy." Chen Ze said. Chen Ze had also studied formations before. Although he was not as good as professionals, he was still much better than ordinary people.

Chen Xi was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Are you trying to get words out of me? You bunch of bad guys!"

Chen Ze: "Huh, do you think I'm stupid? I won't tell you!" Chen Xi said arrogantly.

"I'm fine, go ahead!" Chen Ze stood up and walked out of the passage. Chen Xi stared at Chen Ze's back and couldn't help but chase after him.

Chen Ze wanted to stop him, but seeing Chen Xi's stubborn look, Chen Ze finally chose to remain silent.

The two walked for a distance again. The passage gradually became narrower and was only the size of a fist. Many cracks began to appear on the surrounding rock walls, which looked terrifying.

This should be the exit leading to the core area of ​​the ancient tomb.

Chen Ze was walking in front when he suddenly found a thin rope wrapped around his ankle.

Chen Ze looked down and saw a bead tied to the end of the thin rope.

Chen Ze bent down and picked it up. The bead was round and shiny, and it was obvious at first glance that it was definitely not an ordinary item.

"Were you picking up this bead just now?" Chen Ze asked puzzledly. The bead was black in color and covered with dense cracks on the surface.

"Yes, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this bead?" Chen Xi also came over to take a look.

"You'll know if there is any problem if you take a look at it. Remember, you only have one minute!" Chen Ze reminded.

"One minute?" Chen Xi was puzzled.

Chen Ze was too lazy to pay attention to Chen Xi. He cut the bead into pieces with a dagger and threw it to Chen Xi, asking her to appreciate it slowly. What was so special about the bead and why it was tied to the rock wall.

At this time, Chen Ze discovered that the terrain here was becoming increasingly steep. (End of this chapter)
