A comprehensive overview of tombs: starting with the Yellow Weasel's Tomb

To be fair, the Kangxi sword truly lived up to its name; it was incredibly sharp. Bai Jing's sword sliced ​​off most of the Corpse Fragrance Devil's Taro, and then Bai Jing followed up with a kick to the Corpse Fragrance Devil's Taro.

Finally, he kicked the broken Corpse-Scented Devil's Tongue into the bottomless ghost cave.

After doing all this, Bai Jing couldn't help but look around.

The others finally came to their senses and saw Bai Jing standing on the stone platform, looking towards them.

Then, to everyone's horror, they discovered that Chu Jian, Sadi Peng, and Ye Yixin, who had been walking with them, had disappeared.

At that moment, Professor Chen called out in disbelief, "Xiao Sa, Xiao Chu, Xiao Ye, where are you?"

Professor Hao looked around in disbelief. Three living people had suddenly disappeared. Since everyone was no longer affected by the illusion, they could all see them.

Upon hearing the commotion, Bai Jing abandoned his post on the stone platform and rushed down to the group, explaining what had just happened.

They also mentioned that Chu Jian, Sadi Peng, and Ye Yixin had never actually entered the tomb; they had already left. They also mentioned that the passage they entered through had hallucinogenic properties.

Finally, after Bai Jing finished explaining about the Corpse-Scented Devil's Tongue, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Professor Hao and Professor Chen heard three...

With all the students safe and sound, I felt relieved.

However, they were immediately met with a chill; they had unknowingly fallen under an illusion, which was truly terrifying.

However, Hu Bayi and Fatty were well aware that Bai Jing had not been affected by the illusion.

After all, when they were sent-down youth, Hu Bayi and Fatty were tricked into illusions by the weasel several times, but they had never seen Bai Jing fall under an illusion.

After the crisis was over, the fat man couldn't help but look at the suspended stone platform in the distance and say, "Hey? Why is there still a big log tied to that place?"

Hearing the fat man's words, Hu Bayi looked at the stone platform with a puzzled expression. Suddenly, Hu Bayi seemed to recognize the identity of the wood on it and exclaimed, "This, this, this is..."

When the others heard Hu Bayi's shout, some were puzzled, some were surprised, but they all looked at the piece of wood on the stone block.

The fat man was completely bewildered; he had no idea what it was, and immediately asked, "What is it?"

Upon hearing the fat man's question, Bai Jing immediately explained, "The best material for this coffin is generally considered to be the wood from the hollow of a submerged tree. But actually, above the hollow of a submerged tree, there is another kind of divine wood among the finest, and that is this."

Recorded in the mountains and seas, legend has it that it is a tree that grows upside down, deep within the millennia-old ice layers of the Kunlun Mountains. Its roots are at the top, its trunk at the bottom, and it grows only an inch every hundred years. It absorbs the ancient chill of the Kunlun Mountains, and its wood is like ice crystals. Used to preserve corpses, it will not decay for millions of years; it will be exactly as it was when it died.

Hu Bayi then added, "Old Bai is right. Moreover, according to the legend, even if there is only one section, it will not dry up after being separated from soil, water and sunlight. Although it will not grow again, it can always maintain its original appearance."

If a corpse is stored in it, it can remain undecayed for ten thousand years. Ancient texts also say that this tree is as ancient as Mount Kunlun itself, and even Qin Shi Huang, the First Emperor of Qin, sought to use the Kunlun Divine Tree for his coffin but could not obtain it.

After listening to Bai Jing and Hu Bayi's words, Professor Hao couldn't help but exclaim, "There are such magical woods in this world!"

Professor Chen smiled and said, "As the saying goes, the world is so big that anything is possible. Patriotism, didn't we think that this bottomless ghost cave was just a legend before? But now we actually saw it. And it makes sense."

Bai Jing smiled upon hearing this but remained silent.

He looked at the coffin. Although he hadn't seen it very closely, he could still make out that the body of the Queen of Jingjue in the coffin was indeed well preserved, which must be due to the effects of the coffin.

The fat man pointed into the distance and asked, "Hey, Lao Bai, Lao Hu, this must be the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue, right?"

Bai Jing nodded upon hearing this and said, "That should be it. I just glanced at it, and the corpse in the coffin is a woman. It must be the Queen of Jingjue."

Upon hearing this, the fat man immediately became interested and asked, "Hey, Lao Bai, did you get a clear look at what the Queen of Jingjue looks like?"

Bai Jing shook his head and said, "I noticed you weren't in a good state earlier, but I didn't have time to check on you."

Professor Chen smiled upon hearing this and said, "Then let's go and see what the legendary Queen of Jingjue is like."

Chapter 176 The Figure in the Imaginary Space

Professor Chen's suggestion was approved by everyone, and they headed towards the Kunlun Sacred Tree.

When he saw the tender buds sprouting on the Kunlun Divine Tree, the fat man couldn't help but exclaim, "This piece of wood is definitely more valuable than any coffin."

Hu Bayi was speechless when he heard Fatty say that. Could something like this be measured by money? He immediately scolded Fatty, "I'm not saying this to be mean, Fatty, but your understanding of things really needs improvement. How can something like this be measured by money? No amount of money can buy this piece of wood."

Hearing Hu Bayi's words, Bai Jing also laughed and said, "Yeah, Fatty, if you think about it this way, even the First Emperor of Qin, who was the first emperor of all time, couldn't get to see such a sacred tree. You're already lucky to have seen it, you know?"

After Hu Bayi and Bai Jing finished speaking, Fatty realized he had said the wrong thing again, so he quickly nodded and shut his mouth.

Professor Chen and Professor Hao found Hu Bayi and Bai Jing's words very helpful.

Then Professor Chen said, "Haha, Comrade Hu and Xiaobai are right. How can such a divine object be measured by money? It is priceless and should be put into a museum so that more people can see it and understand the glorious and splendid culture of our country."

Then, the group finally arrived at the Kunlun Divine Wood coffin and looked inside.

Inside the coffin, the Queen of Jingjue wore a red veil, obscuring her face. However, just by looking at her exposed skin, everyone knew that the Queen of Jingjue must have been a beauty in life.

Moreover, thanks to the effects of the Kunlun Divine Tree, even though Queen Jingjue had been dead for many years, her body showed no signs of decay.

Her still somewhat rosy body made it seem as if the Queen of Jingjue was still alive, just asleep.

Just as everyone was examining the body of Queen Jingjue in the coffin, her eyes suddenly opened without anyone noticing.

The moment the Queen of Jingjue opened her eyes, Bai Jing felt a strong sense of palpitation.

This was the strongest feeling of palpitation Bai Jing had ever experienced.

Bai Jing's expression immediately changed, and he shouted, "Run! There's danger!"

When Hu Bayi and the others heard Bai Jing's shout, they all looked at Bai Jing, wondering what had happened. But they knew that Bai Jing must have sensed danger again, so they didn't dare to delay and all began to retreat quickly.

Professor Chen originally wanted to take another look, but Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang pulled him back.

But Bai Jing suddenly realized that he was unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing realized that he had been targeted by the Queen of Jingjue.

The Queen of Jingjue's eyes were fixed on him.

The Queen of Jingjue's eyes seemed to possess some kind of magic, as if trying to pull Bai Jing into something.

Bai Jing wanted to break free from the influence of this force, but he was completely unable to move.

Then Bai Jing saw a space where blood red and gold intertwined.

洞。

Bai Jing knew without even thinking that this must be the entrance to the imaginary space.

At that moment, Bai Jing, who had been unable to move, suddenly radiated boundless light from his entire body. What Bai Jing did not know was that a huge, colorful flower-like tattoo was appearing on his back.

If Bai Jing could see what this tattoo looked like, he would definitely recognize it as the same peony pattern he had seen before.

After the peony tattoo appeared on Bai Jing's body, he felt a lightness in his body.

Bai Jing seized the opportunity, immediately broke free from this control, and then quickly retreated.

This seemed to have angered something within them.

Immediately afterwards, everyone, including Hu Bayi and the others, saw a huge red and gold space appear.

Within this space, one can vaguely see a giant snake that has been reduced to a pile of bones.

The giant snake seemed to want to break free of space, but it was blocked by some kind of energy.

This startled Bai Jing and the others.

After several attempts, the giant snake skeleton seemed to realize that it could not break free at all, and looked at Bai Jing and the others with its only remaining empty pupils.

This scene caused Bai Jing and the others to gasp in shock.

Bai Jing suddenly looked up at the top of the ghost cave and realized that the top of the ghost cave was empty.

In other words, you can see the sky from here.

Having confirmed this, Bai Jing made a snap decision and immediately took out a brocade pouch from his robes.

As Bai Jing took out three bronze artifacts from the brocade pouch, everyone was stunned. What was he doing?

Hu Bayi, however, recognized one of the three bronze artifacts and exclaimed in surprise, "The Eyeless Dragon Talisman?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jing looked at Hu Bayi and nodded. Indeed, one of them was the Eyeless Dragon Talisman, while the other two were the Eyeless Phoenix Talisman and the Eyeless Rat Talisman.

Then, Bai Jing first put away the Eyeless Rat Talisman, then grabbed the Eyeless Phoenix Talisman with his left hand and the Eyeless Dragon Talisman with his right hand, and said, "You beast, since you are already dead, you should rest in peace."

After saying that, Bai Jing suddenly crossed his arms forward and shouted, "Lei Lai!"

In an instant, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket suddenly fell from the hole above and slammed into the passage of the gold and red imaginary space.

"what!!!!!"

As the lightning struck, Bai Jing faintly heard painful howls.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Jing noticed that the imaginary space passage had shrunk a bit. Bai Jing was overjoyed, knowing that the lightning summoned by the Dragon Talisman had worked.

But just now, Bai Jing also felt that he had used up a lot of strength.

But Bai Jing didn't dare stop and immediately shouted, "Fire!"

The passageway in the imaginary space suddenly burst into flames. Soon, not only the passageway in the imaginary space, but also the coffin containing the Queen Jingjue, made of Kunlun Divine Wood, was ignited.

Bai Jing still dared not relax and continued to summon lightning continuously.

Meanwhile, Hu Bayi, Shirley Yang, Professor Chen, and the others on the other side were completely dumbfounded.

They couldn't believe that this was something a human being could do.

Of course, what they couldn't understand even more was what was inside that golden-red passage.

But Bai Jing had no time to explain at this moment.
