The gods began by supporting Guo Jing to become emperor

Chapter 103 Chongyang Inscription
Su Ming frightened the enemy with one palm strike. His figure retreated several feet like a willow tree in the breeze. Seeing her uncertain expression, he said softly, "I see calluses on your palms. You must be a swordsman. If you think I won unfairly, go back and get your sword and we can fight again."

"No need for that. Winning is winning, losing is losing. There is nothing to be ashamed of." Maid Lin's eyes swept back and forth across Su Ming's face, and she said word by word, "I lost."

"Don't worry, I don't have any intentions towards you. But you should exchange the Nine Yin Scriptures martial arts that I just mentioned as a gift to you." Su Ming raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

This did not make Maid Lin feel at ease, but made her more alert. "If you are being so attentive to me for no reason, you are either a traitor or a thief. What do you want?"

"It's very simple, the Nine Yin Manual martial arts from the Tomb of the Living Dead."

"Impossible!" Maid Lin denied it as soon as she finished speaking. "My young lady doesn't know any martial arts from the Nine Yin Manual. It's impossible for her to find any in the Tomb of the Living Dead."

Su Ming took two steps forward and said calmly, "Lin Chaoying doesn't know the Nine Yin Manual, but Wang Chongyang does. This martial art was left behind by him."

Maid Lin looked at him with suspicion and denied it again, "That's impossible. My lady never told me about it."

Su Ming looked into her eyes quietly, "Have you forgotten that the Tomb of the Living Dead was built by Wang Chongyang with great effort, and your young lady died before Wang Chongyang, so she couldn't know everything." His voice was steady and powerful, as if convincing.

Maid Lin actually suspected in her heart that Wang Chongyang had sneaked into the Tomb of the Living Dead, but this was just a suspicion and she had no evidence.

Su Ming shrugged and said with a smile, "Look, you can't deny that there are so many traps in the Tomb of the Living Dead. How could Wang Chongyang not leave a backup plan and give that piece of land to your young lady so easily?"

Maid Lin accepted this point of view, but still did not give in. "You mean, you want to enter the Tomb of the Living Dead?"

"I don't know the martial arts in there. But if you want to keep the Nine Yin Scriptures for yourself, I have no objection." Su Ming had a smile on his face, without any sign of worry.

Maid Lin was annoyed by his words and asked directly, "What on earth are you up to?"

"It's very simple. Find the Nine Yin Manual and share it with us. This way, both you and I will benefit."

"Aren't you afraid that I will leave now and keep the Nine Yin Manual for myself?"

"Don't be afraid. If I don't tell you the exact location, you'll never find it in your life." Then, Su Ming turned his back to her and said, "If I can't get it today, the Ancient Tomb Sect will never have peace again."

The sudden threat startled Maid Lin, and then she became angry. However, the ancient tomb sect's martial arts emphasizes less thinking and less desire, and restraining the seven emotions and six desires. Her face was still cold, "You are so shameless. If you have the ability, try it."

"It's very simple to do this. I don't even have to do anything. As long as I spread the martial arts of the Nine Yin Manual hidden in the Tomb of the Living Dead, do you think someone will come to me?"

Just a few words pierced through Maid Lin's defenses. The Nine Yin Scriptures is a martial arts manual that everyone in the martial arts world dreams of obtaining. If the news really gets out, the Ancient Tomb Sect will never have peace again. Let alone anything else, Ouyang Feng alone is enough to give people a headache.

Thinking of this, Maid Lin couldn't help but shudder. When she looked at Su Ming again, there was a bit of fear in her eyes. This man was too cruel!

"Okay, I promise you, but you must swear not to spread this news, let alone let anyone else know."

Su Ming turned around, still with a faint smile on his face, but in the eyes of Maid Lin, he looked very hateful and infuriating. "I, Su Ming, swear that if I spread the news that the Ancient Tomb Sect has the Nine Yin Manual, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death in the future." Most of the people in this era valued promises and oaths. Seeing Su Ming swear directly, Maid Lin's cold expression eased a little, "Follow me!"

Then she walked towards the Tomb of the Living Dead, and Su Ming followed leisurely behind her.

Two quarters of an hour later, they arrived at the Tomb of the Living Dead. The mountain was not high, with only sparse grass and trees on it. From a distance it looked like a large mound. No wonder it was called the Tomb of the Living Dead.

Seeing Su Ming stop, Maid Lin looked at him suspiciously, "Aren't you going in?"

Su Ming shook his head slightly. What a joke. If he goes in and is trapped to death by your trap, wouldn't that be a laughing stock? There are so many traps in the Tomb of the Living Dead. If you just lock him in there, he will be helpless. Martial arts are not omnipotent and cannot solve all problems.

Maid Lin knew the layout of the mechanism inside, but he didn't know that if he were threatened by someone like this, he would definitely find an opportunity to kill himself. Su Ming would not rely on others for his safety.

"You don't have to go through the main entrance. I have another way."

Maid Lin immediately understood that this was the path Wang Chongyang took to sneak into the Tomb of the Living Dead. Otherwise, it would be difficult to hide it from her eyes if he walked through the main gate.

"it is good."

Afterwards, Su Ming climbed up the Tomb of the Living Dead and stood at the highest point to look down. At the same time, he used the Nether Sea Return to Origin Energy to sense the flow of water vapor around him. This martial art now became a detector, and soon he found the location.

He walked down and said to Maid Lin, "I found it, follow me!"

The two walked around the Tomb of the Living Dead for a long time, and finally Su Ming stopped at a remote place at the foot of Mount Zhongnan. There was a cave here, and inside the cave was a pond. "This is it."

Maid Lin looked around and didn't see any signs of traps, so she asked, "Where is the passage?"

"It's in the water, in the water. I'm going down. Follow me if you don't want to miss it." Su Ming left a word and jumped into the pool. The water was icy cold, but he was not affected by the protection of his true qi. If it were an ordinary person, he might get cramps if he jumped in without any preparation.

Su Ming walked slowly along the pond and soon came to a dark and narrow path that was impassable. He took a deep breath, held his breath, and dived into the water. After about a meal's time, there was finally some light on the water surface. He looked up and saw a path faintly visible not far away.

Outside, by the pond, Maid Lin looked at the water with a hesitant look on her face. After thinking for a while, she finally made up her mind to follow.

Su Ming walked up the steps and used his internal energy to evaporate the moisture from his body. In a short while, his wet clothes became dry again. He walked along the path, turning several turns and gradually going upwards. After an unknown amount of time, he finally reached the end.

This is a stone chamber. After turning a corner, there is a row of steps next to it, and going up is the Tomb of the Living Dead.

Su Ming took out the tinderbox he had prepared long ago and opened it. The bright light illuminated the small room. He looked up and took a closer look. There were tiny words and patterns engraved on the ceiling. These were the Chongyang inscriptions that Su Ming was looking for.
