The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

On the flesh of the Tai Sui, two fist-sized openings appeared, each containing condensed chaotic and ferocious sand. Moreover, three other holes appeared around it, seemingly trying to condense the facial features into corpse holes.

Upon seeing this, Fang Yun's expression grew even more solemn; the old man had truly awakened.

The old Tai Sui with five corpse holes is called 'Aconite Tai Sui'. It seems that the old Tai Sui has developed intelligence and intends to devour the Muchen Pearl to condense a sixth corpse hole.

The five corpse caves are a bottleneck. If that old Tai Sui really devours the Muchen Pearl, it will form a true 'Heavenly Transformation Tai Sui'.

At that time, corpse caves will continue to form, eventually creating countless corpse caves, which will no longer be a problem that can be solved by feng shui clashes.

................

The four of them ran at full speed and soon exited the main tomb chamber through the Heavenly Gate, arriving at the waterway where they had entered the tomb.

At this moment, the water surface was covered with the corpses of the corpse moths that had fled earlier, and many corpse moths were also clinging to the walls around them. However, after Fang Yun arrived, the corpse moths that were still alive scurried into the Heavenly Gate like mice seeing a cat, avoiding Fang Yun.

Fang Yun pulled out the dragon bone dagger with the safety rope attached, tossed the rope to Partridge Whistle and the other two, and said in a deep voice:

Backup group 893964460

"Let's go immediately. Once we're out, we'll go up the plank road and lead the Corpse Cave to the Lingyun Heavenly Palace."

"That's the boundary between the Water Dragon and the Halo, a place where Yin and Yang, water and fire, can be divided. It's also an auspicious place that can dismantle the Corpse Cave!"

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, all three nodded solemnly.

Partridge Whistle put the King's head into a cloth bag, tied it tightly to his body, then pushed aside the water covered with the corpses of moths, took a deep breath and jumped in. Old Yangren and Hua followed closely behind.

At this point, they could no longer care about the poison on the corpse moth. Corpse poison was easy to cure, but the corpse cave was completely invincible.

Seeing that the three of them had gone into the water, Fang Yun put the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow and the Dragon Bone Dagger into his system space, and finally went into the waterway as well.

Once we've dealt with this corpse cave, we can then properly consider upgrading the system.

(Updated all night.)

Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Pursuit of the Corpse Cave, the Destruction of Divine Might!

With the safety ropes for leverage, the four of them moved quickly through the water, crossing the entire waterway and entering the Water Dragon Pool in less than half a minute.

At this point, there was no longer any suction in the pool. The water hole at the bottom of the pool stopped drawing in water and instead kept spitting it out.

"Gan!"

Upon seeing this, Fang Yun's expression changed, and he suddenly remembered something.

The so-called "Ascension to Immortality" or "riding a dragon to ascend to heaven" refers to the eruption of the earth's dragon energy, allowing the soul of a two-thousand-year-old corpse to absorb the earth's energy and become an immortal, either a true immortal or a corpse immortal.

King Xian fell into the Corpse Cave and could not come out again, so absorbing the earth's energy was impossible. The Old Tai Sui also left the Earth's energy eye with the Corpse Cave and did not absorb the earth's energy.

After the Old Tai Sui revived, it moved to a different location. There was nothing to block the earth's energy eye, and the earth's energy that had been suppressed for more than two thousand years at the center of the water dragon halo was now in a state of eruption, causing the pool water to flow back in.

This situation is similar to the previous eruption of earth energy in the Taiyin acupoint, except that the earth energy accumulated by the water dragon halo is hundreds or thousands of times greater than that of the Taiyin acupoint.

However, this eruption of earth energy has nothing to do with him and cannot harm him. He also does not have the ability to absorb earth energy with his living body.

The eruption of the earth's energy actually made it easier for the four of them to get out of the water.

The only major impact is that the eruption of the Water Dragon Halo's earth energy will change the form of the Water Dragon Halo, meaning that the Water Dragon Halo will be temporarily broken at 427. Until the Water Dragon Halo recovers, this place will be a waste site.

Therefore, his previous plan to use the Water Dragon Aura and the Nine Noble Lands to destroy the Corpse Cave at the Lingyun Heavenly Palace was no longer feasible.

After all, the Nine Noble Screen Horse Riding is a typical auspicious burial site among the Ten Noble Sites. This auspicious position does not play a significant role in distinguishing Yin and Yang. Without the water dragon halo, the mere presence of the Nine Noble Sites is simply insufficient to break through the chaotic and ominous sand in the corpse cave.

Now... he can only follow the same path that the three Hu brothers took in later generations.

Get out of the valley!

The corpse cave is led to the place where the Seven Noble Round White Tiger and the Eight Noble Pen Azure Dragon are located. The Azure Dragon and White Tiger attack the corpse cave from both sides, separating the Yin and Yang of the corpse cave and erasing the chaotic evil sand.

After entering the pool, all four felt the suction of the water's eye disappear, and there was also a pushing force coming from underwater, which pushed the entire pool.

Before long, the four of them broke out of the water by following the safety rope.

"Tsk, that's pretty exaggerated..."

After surfacing and scanning the area, Fang Yun clicked his tongue in amazement. The water level in the pool had risen several meters compared to before.

The boardwalk leading down to the pool was originally three or four meters above the ground, but now it was completely covered by the surface of the pool. Once they swam across, they could climb directly onto the boardwalk.

The fish in the water seemed to sense something and were leaping wildly on the surface of the pool, as if trying to rush into the sky and leap over the Dragon Gate.

"Come with me!"

After calling out to the three brothers, Partridge Whistle, Fang Yun swam vigorously toward the plank road beside him.

Bang!

The four had just stepped onto the plank road when the water suddenly exploded, a column of water shooting into the sky, almost crashing directly into the base of the Lingyun Heavenly Palace.

At the same time, a dark shadow rose into the air along with the water column. The shadow rode the water column into the air and then quickly crashed back onto the water surface, splashing countless pieces of scarlet sewage in all directions.

Upon seeing this, Fang Yun's expression changed, and he hurriedly waved his hand and shouted, "Leave here first, don't go to Lingyun Heavenly Palace, run back!"

The dark shadow that crashed onto the water's surface was none other than the old man carrying the corpse cave.

The old man had now fully solidified into his true form, but his body had shrunk considerably, now only the size of a car, and looked like a yellow slime.

On the old man's body, facial features materialized, and the entire front of the old man's body formed a large face. The facial features were five dark and deep corpse holes, and black mist swirled around the chaotic and fierce sand above the corpse holes.

Anything that gets close to that old man, whether fish or water, is instantly twisted and annihilated, turning into a wisp of mist that is absorbed by the corpse cave.

The three brothers, Partridge Whistle and his companions, also witnessed this scene. Not daring to waste any time, they followed Fang Yun and ran up the stone plank road.

If they were to get close to that corpse cave, not only would they die, but they would also have their Muchen Pearl swallowed up. At that point... the Zaglama tribe would truly be without hope.

Fang Yun, who was running at the front of the group to clear the way, was also shocked. What he had seen in the book and what he had seen with his own eyes were completely different.

The power of that corpse cave is nothing short of destructive. Such a ferocious thing should never have appeared in the world. Compared to this thing, even the great demon, the corpse king, and the old zongzi are nothing.

His Qilin blood was invincible against poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, but it was completely useless in front of this corpse cave. The blood would be obliterated by the chaotic and fierce sand as soon as it approached the corpse cave.

This was the first time he had ever been so disheveled, and he had no choice but to run away.

As the four ran along the plank road towards the entrance of the gourd cave, the old man sensed their presence and began to wriggle towards the mountain wall beside the pool.

The old man was all flesh and no feet, but he moved extremely fast, almost as fast as Fang Yun and the other three. He quickly climbed up the mountain wall.

The vines and moss on the mountain wall that the old man had climbed had completely disappeared, swallowed up by the corpse cave. Where the old man had walked, only a hollow path remained, as if a piece of the mountain wall had been dug out out of thin air.

Before long, the four of them reached the end of the plank road, where the entrance to the Gourd Cave was right in front of them.

"You all go first, don't say anything, just get out of here!"

Fang Yun spoke calmly, beckoning the three of them into the cave, while also glancing back at them.

They walked along the plank road, which was difficult to traverse, while the old man climbed directly up the mountain wall, moving faster than them. At this moment, the old man was only twenty meters away from them and had already entered the passage.

As the old man approached him, he could even feel a chill on the Qilin tattoo behind him, followed by a surge of warmth throughout his body, and a boost in his energy and strength.

"Qilin blood...that's powerful enough, but it's a pity you can't handle this corpse cave."

With a helpless sigh, Fang Yun followed the others into the cave after the other three had entered.

Inside the gourd cave, the previously revived infants had completely fallen silent, floating motionless on the water's surface. At a glance, there was nothing left to hinder the four's progress.

The four of them kept walking, their gaze lingering on the water for only a moment before they climbed onto the plank road on the cave wall and ran towards the exit ahead.

(Please give me some flowers and ratings! I'll stay up all night to catch up on the updates. Don't worry, I'm just sick; I have no intention of abandoning the story or cutting it off.)

Chapter Ninety-Nine: Successful Escape, Waiting for the Rabbit to Run into the Tree Stump!

Although the plank road on the cave wall was narrow, it was still easier to walk on than the plank road on the mountainside, and the four of them moved much faster.

When the four of them arrived at the center of the gourd cave, the old man behind them had just squeezed into the gourd cave.

At this time, the old Tai Sui had undergone a significant transformation, shrinking from the size of a car to the size of a well opening. However, the holes in its body grew larger and larger, resembling black holes of a human face floating in the air when viewed from afar.

The chaotic, malevolent sand within the corpse cave swirled continuously, releasing black mist that devoured the surrounding infants and children.

As the corpse cave devoured the chaotic, ferocious sand, it grew larger and larger, spinning faster and faster. The old man's physical body also shrank and solidified, and its speed increased considerably.

Fortunately, the cave was filled with countless corpses, which temporarily stopped the old man.

"Damn it..."

"If this thing swallows the Muchen Pearl... wouldn't it condense into a human-shaped celestial molt...?"

Seeing the old man rushing towards him from behind, Fang Yun cursed under his breath.

Given the King's expertise in feng shui, it's impossible that he didn't know that the Old Tai Sui would grow a corpse hole if it absorbed too much flesh and blood.

But King Xian still did it anyway; it can only be said that King Xian was truly insane in his pursuit of immortality.

If the Prince of Xian hadn't done that, he could have harvested a divine mushroom with medicinal properties that had lasted for thousands of years. One bite of its precious flesh would have guaranteed him longevity.

There are two types of Tai Sui. The first type is naturally formed and absorbs the energy of the earth's veins. It has eyes and five senses and is called "Mingyan Tai Sui". It is a divine herb and an absolute treasure.

The Tai Sui in front of us, stained with blood from a blood sacrifice and stained with corpse holes, is called the "Dark-Eyed Tai Sui." It has no physical eyes, only the eyes of the corpse holes, and is said to be the incarnation of an ancient evil god.

The Corpse Cave has its eye on the Muchen Pearl, which carries strange energy. If the Corpse Cave were to devour the Muchen Pearl, the old Tai Sui would be able to transform on the spot and become a walking Corpse Cave person.

"Brother Fang!"

At this moment, Partridge Whistle looked back and saw that the old Tai Sui was devouring the corpse, its speed slowing down. He breathed a sigh of relief and asked Fang Yun:

"If we continue chasing this corpse cave like this, we will soon be exhausted."

“I have heard that during the Qianlong era, a corpse cave Tai Sui appeared in the mountains of Yunnan. At that time, a Feng Shui master took action and removed the corpse cave Tai Sui.”
