Chapter 455: Underground Tomb
Li Xuan could see the coffin in front of him more clearly at this close distance. There were some unknown patterns carved on the coffin. The patterns were somewhat complicated, just like the talismans in ancient times.

However, when they were far away, even with the sensing and detection of crystal power, these things could not be felt at all. It was as if the effect of crystal power was suddenly discounted. This situation was a bit weird.

Li Xuan approached the coffin and looked at it carefully. Although what we see with our eyes may not be true, Li Xuan did not have any doubt about what he saw at this moment.

This is a coffin that is similar to both a crystal coffin and a wooden coffin. This kind of coffin is somewhat transparent, yet has a deep atmosphere, as if the styles of the two coffins were combined together. At first glance, it looks ordinary, but then you take a closer look and find it a little weird. Then, when you look at it carefully at the end, you will be shocked and amazed, because this coffin gives people an inexplicable feeling of depression and shock.

Li Xuan walked over, stood in front of the coffin, and looked at it from the front.

As expected, there lay a woman in the coffin who looked similar to a real person, but this woman was a little old, because the clothes and other things on her body were very old.

She was sleeping in the coffin, and her face looked very peaceful and calm. This calmness even made people feel inexplicably uneasy.

When he saw this woman, Li Xuan was slightly startled, with a strange expression on his face.

Because the appearance of this woman was very similar to that of a woman he was very familiar with, but the woman he was familiar with was actually just an ordinary person without any other abilities. Even in real life, she was very ordinary and not outstanding.

However, precisely because of this, after Li Xuan saw the appearance of this woman, he was slightly moved. It was not that this woman was very beautiful, because this woman was similar to a woman he was familiar with in reality, so her appearance was just more outstanding. The difference was that that one was more outstanding, while the one in the coffin, because she was wearing ancient clothes and dressed differently, as well as the light, casual, tranquil and natural look in her sleep, had an indescribable charming charm.

This situation made Li Xuan more interested.

He did not open the coffin, even though there was a crystal sculpture of the imperial seal on the head of the coffin.

……

"This person is so similar to Xia Qianqian. However, Xia Qianqian should have her own life now, and who in history is she?" Li Xuan muttered to himself. His crystal power swept the entire space, but he didn't find anything useful. The situation before him made him a little confused.

It's not that he has no control over the situation, but it is precisely because he has great control over the situation that he has doubts.

"Well, since you are already dead, what's the point of keeping this body? You should return to dust." Li Xuan stared at the body of the beautiful woman, and then he placed his hand on the lid of the crystal coffin.

With a slight force, the coffin lid suddenly began to tremble. The trembling of the coffin lid caused the entire cemetery space to tremble slightly.

But Li Xuan didn't care about all this. He increased the strength in his hands again. This force made the crystal wood coffin, which was already groaning, tremble again. Then, the coffin, which was originally very tight, was suddenly controlled by the huge force and moved to the side.

There was no change in the coffin itself, but what changed was the coffin lid. The change of the coffin lid suddenly broke through the mysterious veil of the entire coffin.

When the coffin lid was moved open little by little like a mechanical door, suddenly, the perfect woman inside the coffin, who looked as if she was soundly asleep, began to feel something wrong.

Her originally round and rosy face suddenly turned pale. Then, her face began to turn blue and purple, as if her blood circulation was blocked, and she showed a sick condition as if she had suffocated.

Then, the purple color began to expand and spread all over her body. The clothes on her body began to droop and stick to her body. At the same time, they quickly began to turn into bits of dust and gradually floated away.

Her jade-like skin also began to smoke and rot rapidly. Her originally beautiful head, however, began to move gradually as if there were bugs crawling inside it, and then rolled to a corner next to the coffin.

After the head rolled off, the dark flesh on the neck also began to roll rapidly, revealing the white bones inside. This process was not very fast, but the whole process was visible to the naked eye and was extremely clear.

In less than five minutes, the whole person had completely decayed and only a pile of bones remained. Inside the coffin, the black, yellow, turbid liquid directly penetrated the bottom of the coffin and flowed out from below.

Next to the coffin, a yellowish, turbid liquid with a sour smell flowed to Li Xuan's feet.

Li Xuan didn't care about all this at all. Although the process was disgusting and the scene was extremely tragic and bloody, he knew in his heart that this was just an ancient person's body that had accumulated a lot of energy over the years. After the coffin lid was opened, the strong oxidizing properties caused her body to evaporate rapidly. This phenomenon can actually be explained, but the process is always a bit bleak.

He did not take it to heart. Instead, when the white bones were fully revealed, he controlled the crystal power and pressed directly on a special place under the coffin. That place was exactly below the buttocks of the corpse when the corpse had not yet decayed.

But at this moment, this place just corresponds to the pelvis of the skeleton.

The next things were much easier to handle. When everything was planned correctly, Li Xuan didn't care about the surrounding environment. After opening the special route of the crystal coffin, he controlled the crystal power to pile the bones in a corner of the coffin, and then walked in through a special passage under the coffin.

Stepping onto a lower level, the crystal force suddenly became inactive, because where the true Son of Heaven is, other energies are often suppressed. The ancient emperors were truly appointed by Heaven, and their dragon might and overwhelming strength were enough to form a special kind of spiritual suppression.

After feeling it carefully, Li Xuan suddenly had an epiphany. No wonder those people in ancient times said "to serve the king is like serving a tiger". It is indeed like this. Although it was just a simple feeling, no one is willing to endure the feeling of being oppressed and enslaved.

There is a passage under the coffin, which is made of a special rare metal on all sides. After observing it, Li Xuan knew that the technical level of the person who built this underground passage was very high. In this passage, any signal-related things were also completely shielded.

Even if it was crystal power, in such a place, there was no way to break through the limitations of these metal channels except extending forward and backward.

However, because the extension range has reached 35 meters at this moment, although it cannot break through the metal passages around it, the sensing in the front and back directions is not a problem. This situation is more favorable.

Li Xuan walked gently in the passage, as if he was walking in a special high-tech secret base, which felt a bit weird.

However, in such an environment, he was not nervous or afraid. After all, he had experienced life and death so many times.

Around this metal pipe, some rather terrifying images can be vaguely seen. If ordinary people saw these things, they would definitely be scared because of their weird style. However, although Li Xuan's crystal power could not sense the situation outside the metal, he could feel the metal pipe more clearly. That's why he knew very well in his heart that this was just a special mural combined with certain light and environment, which created an illusion. Anyone, once deliberately hypnotized or attracted by these things, would fall into a nightmare that they would be afraid of, and at that time, it would only make people mentally disturbed.

"Everything here was created by some great mechanical masters and top craftsmen from ancient times. I never thought that the craftsmanship of the pre-Qin and Han dynasties would reach such an amazing level. Compared with the capabilities of that time, the current Yun Kingdom should really cry. After so many years, some things and technologies are still far behind those of ancient times. This is really a sad thing."

Li Xuan sighed. Through this metal pipe, he understood one thing. That is, the so-called lost imperial seal was simply a joke, because since the Pre-Qin Dynasty or the Han Dynasty, the imperial seal had been truly hidden, and the so-called ones were probably all forgeries.

In ancient times, it was not difficult for some skilled craftsmen to make fake goods look just like the real ones.

Therefore, after learning the true history, Li Xuan no longer had any hope for the past of the imperial seal that he knew.

This passage is not long. According to the feeling of crystal force, the exit is just ahead. It is only because the exit cannot be seen that this place seems so scary.

The murals are full of a mess of extremely realistic evil spirits. These things may even cause the light to be refracted or reflected and scattered due to the occasional twisting and changes in the pipes, making some of the people in the pictures seem to be in action, as if they will suddenly pounce on you, especially when you look up, as if a particularly terrifying scene is suddenly pressing down on you.
