The enemy has gone into overdrive; what can he do but continue using cheat codes?

It's hard to say what will happen with endless ice, so let's add the power of the earth.

In an instant, the surrounding gravity increased 50 times, and some carvings and trees were crushed by the gravity at that moment.

The Dragon Sparrow, whose spirit had been unleashed, paused and retreated helplessly.

Although the soldiers of the Imperial Guard are not made of flesh and blood and do not need to worry about the effects of gravity on their internal organs, even though they are terracotta warriors, they still have to endure the pressure of gravity.

Some of the soldiers carrying halberds had cracks appearing in their halberds at this moment, as if they were about to break.

"Great Qin! Invincible!"

click!

The boss took a step forward, but spiderweb-like cracks appeared on his armor.

"Although I admire your spirit, I have no choice but to complete the game. I'm sorry."

Chen Ling admired their spirit, but their force fields were different.

So the next second, Chen Ling used a hundred times the gravity.

clack clack...

At this moment, a series of cracks appeared on the body of the soldiers, and some of the soldiers even began to shatter.

A few seconds later, the terracotta warrior's body finally gave way.

Like dominoes, one after another, the soldiers and guards of the Imperial Guard shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.

Finally, in the palace square, only the boss was still holding on, even though his body had obvious cracks, and even his collar had a large gash.

"Great Qin...nothing...click..."

The boss didn't finish his last sentence, but he insisted on setting things up, and the result was a pile of rubble.

"I know, the Qin Dynasty is invincible."

Chen Ling deactivated the gravity, walked to the fragments of the boss, and said calmly.

After a long while, Chen Ling stepped over the remains of Bing Ma Yong and slowly walked into the palace.

"Boss, do you think the musician Huang is inside the main hall?" Liu Yuyang asked excitedly, looking at the closed main hall.

"Who knows?" Chen Ling shook his head and said.

clack clack...

After Chen Ling finished speaking, he reached out and pushed open the main hall door.

Chapter 159 Immersing Yourself in the King's Majesty

After the gates opened, a magnificent palace came into view. The entire hall was of high standard and lavishly decorated. It was a perfectly designed mausoleum, displaying many treasures. However, these treasures were not their focus. They wanted to take a good look at the coffin of the musician Huang, which lay in the center of the hall. Many soldiers stood guard beside Huang's coffin, creating a grand and imposing scene. Even just standing at the entrance, they could feel the awe-inspiring atmosphere.

"Boss, this...this is too extravagant!" Liu Yuyang exclaimed, looking at the magnificent palace before him. He had seen plenty of architecture, but this still astonished him. He already knew about the scale of the musician Huang Lin's residence, but seeing it with his own eyes still left him speechless. This was truly the first time he had ever witnessed such a scene.

"No choice, let's go take a look." Chen Ling greatly admired the musician Huang and couldn't wait to see his face. He quickly entered the palace and arrived at Huang's coffin. Looking closely at Huang's features, he felt a sense of majesty; after all, Huang had unified six kingdoms and was invincible. Chen Ling couldn't help but admire his aura; Huang was a king, possessing the majesty of a ruler. However, seeing so many soldiers and imperial guards before him, he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. Chen Ling wanted to learn more about the palace to find useful information for building the third structure. So, after seeing Huang, he prepared to observe the main hall.

"The tomb itself is poisonous; anyone who enters it and inhales too much mercury will die." At this moment, Liu Yuyang suddenly thought of this problem and began to say it to Chen Ling. Most people would be frightened upon hearing this, but he wasn't worried because he knew these problems were not difficult for him.

“It’s too late to think about it now…” said Ma Yong, a soldier standing to the left of the musician Huang.

Then they heard the Imperial Guards shout in unison, "Anyone who trespasses on the imperial tomb shall die."

"I know, next up is 'Invincible Qin,' I've heard it too many times," Chen Ling said impatiently.

Just then, the soldiers roared and charged towards them. Liu Yuyang knew Chen Ling could handle it, so he confidently stepped back, leaving the task to Chen Ling.

Having learned from the previous experience, Chen Ling did not intend to use the Endless Ice Seal this time. Instead, he directly used the power of the earth. The soldiers, who were about to unleash their power, were instantly shattered due to the increased gravity around them. Fortunately, the musician Huang was lying inside the coffin, so his remains were not harmed.

"Boss, I was startled. I thought the power of the earth would shatter the musician Huang into pieces. Luckily, we saved him, otherwise we would have become sinners in history," Liu Yiyang said to Chen Ling.

"Haha. I wouldn't dare be the sinner." Chen Ling couldn't help but laugh after hearing Liu Yiyang's words. He had anticipated Liu Yiyang's concern. Chen Ling knew it was possible; how could he not understand? They were merely constructing buildings, and they had already destroyed so many soldiers and artifacts. How could they possibly harm the musician Huang? That would be too disrespectful. Therefore, when Chen Ling used the power of the earth, he also used Endless Ice Seal to temporarily freeze the musician Huang's coffin, protecting him.

After passing this hurdle, Chen Ling began to observe the architecture inside the main hall. These magnificent buildings filled him with joy. He had originally wanted to visit the musician Huang Lin, but he hadn't gone because he was afraid of encountering problems. Now that he finally had the opportunity, he was determined to seize it and study it thoroughly.

Just then, the repeating crossbows hidden among the musician Huang Lin began to stir, waiting for Chen Ling and his companions to trigger the mechanism so they could fire. These repeating crossbows were extremely powerful, capable of shooting at least 800 paces. Furthermore, they could automatically retract.

At this moment, Chen Ling suddenly remembered that they had brought small neutron bombs with a yield of 30 tons, intending to use them to subdue the musician Huang Lin's power. But now it seemed they wouldn't be able to use them. He thought to himself, "The power of the imperial tombs isn't all that great after all." Just then, Chen Ling also thought of the hidden trap, so he slowed his pace, afraid that they might accidentally trigger it. But as the saying goes, what you fear most is what happens...

"Be careful, there are traps here, don't accidentally touch them." After thinking about it, Chen Ling quickly told Liu Yuyang, but it was too late. As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Liu Yuyang's voice was heard.

"Boss, I think I've encountered them." As Liu Yuyang said this, the hidden arrows were already unleashed. Suddenly, these arrows rained down on them like a dense storm, catching them completely off guard. Endless Ice Seal had reached its time limit and was no longer usable. The power of the earth was also ineffective against the hidden arrows.

Chen Ling and his companions dodged the hidden arrows in all directions. Chen Ling, wielding the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal, used one hand to intercept the arrows coming from all sides, but the arrows continued to surge towards them relentlessly, and they could not stop them all no matter what they did.

Just then, Liu Yuyang said to Chen Ling, "Boss, are we going to die here and be buried with Qin Shi Huang along with Bing Ma Yong? Although I admire Qin Shi Huang's achievements, I haven't gotten married yet, and I don't want to stay here." Liu Yuyang had never imagined that this situation would happen. He had always thought they were invincible, and when they first entered the imperial mausoleum, he didn't think anything unexpected would happen. But now, facing the endless attacks from the shadows, he was indeed worried.

Chen Ling knew that using brute force to block the hidden arrows was the most strenuous and foolish method. So he kept trying to intercept the hidden arrows while thinking of other methods. He really wanted to ask the system for help, but this building was not built by them and did not have any special functions, so he could not use the system.

"Don't worry, we won't stay here. We still need to build a third building, and there are people waiting for us outside." After hearing Liu Yuyang's words, Chen Ling paused for a moment before continuing. Chen Ling knew that getting out of their predicament would be difficult, but he had a premonition that they would definitely get out.

Chapter 160 One Wave Subsides, Another Rises

Faced with the onslaught of hidden arrows, Chen Ling finally came up with a solution. At this moment, Chen Ling, who had originally only used the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal to dodge the arrows, suddenly changed his tactics. Chen Ling no longer used the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal to block with one hand, but instead switched from defense to offense and took the initiative to attack. He chanted the incantation of the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal's moves, and the sword changed accordingly.

Just then, Chen Ling sidestepped and unleashed the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal. The Xuan Yang Sword Immortal transformed into countless swords, which began to counterattack the hidden arrows. With these swords, Chen Ling and his companions were much more relaxed.

After seeing the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal transform into countless swords to counterattack the hidden arrows, Liu Yuyang breathed a sigh of relief. He had originally thought that they would not be able to get out this time and would have to stay here to be buried with the musician Huang. Now, it was good that they had hope of getting out.

Each of Xuan Yang Sword Immortal's sword strikes intercepted every hidden arrow aimed at them, giving Chen Ling a moment to catch his breath. Just then, Chen Ling said to Liu Yuyang, "Now you're not afraid of not being able to get out, are you? Things will work themselves out, so don't panic and lose your composure next time."

When Chen Ling said this, he simply felt that Liu Yuyang seemed a little anxious this time, lacking his usual composure. So he was just giving Liu Yuyang a heads-up. Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang replied, "Boss, I'm not anxious, I'm just worried about you. I'm afraid you won't get out of here, ruining your talent." After saying this, Liu Yuyang almost laughed himself. Chen Ling, naturally, also laughed upon hearing Liu Yuyang's words.

"Alright, stop joking with me. The road ahead is still tough." As Chen Ling spoke, the sword had already merged into one. The countless hidden arrows had been intercepted by the Xuan Yang Sword Immortal. This proved that they had broken through the second barrier. This was also the first time someone had managed to escape these traps alive after entering the imperial tomb.

Hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang deeply believed them, initially thinking this imperial tomb was nothing special. But when he actually arrived at the tomb and triggered the hidden arrow trap, he realized for the first time that life and death hung by a thread. How precious it is to be alive! Like the musician Huang, even with so many people buried with him, he remained unaware. He wanted to do something but couldn't. Thinking of these things, Liu Yuyang cherished his life even more.

"Okay, boss, I'm in battle mode. Ready at all times!" Liu Yuyang, now acting differently from his usual self, had become serious. The current situation no longer allowed him to underestimate the enemy.

Just then, Chen Ling began to carefully observe the buildings in the main hall, afraid of missing any details. However, when he used the power of the earth to deal with the Imperial Guards, these buildings were subjected to the pressure of gravity and suffered considerable damage.

Even so, Chen Ling was observing intently, hoping to find inspiration for building his third structure. Liu Yuyang didn't slack off either, following Chen Ling as he observed the buildings, trying to find some good ideas.

However, after observing for so long, they found no clues or anything of value. This puzzled Chen Ling. It was common knowledge that the imperial tomb of the musician Huang contained many architectural secrets. It was impossible for there to be nothing there; the only explanation was that they hadn't discovered anything yet. So, Chen Ling said to Liu Yuyang, "Search carefully again; there must be something." Liu Yuyang agreed, and they continued their diligent search.

Just as they were diligently searching for the secrets of these buildings, they encountered another problem: a large amount of mercury was hidden inside the main hall. The distribution of the mercury clearly resembled a map of the Qin Empire's territory. As everyone knows, the musician Huang used mercury for two purposes: first, to prevent the corpse from decaying, and second, to prevent tomb robbers from entering.

At first, Liu Yuyang knew about the mercury, but he never took it seriously. However, after the incident with the hidden arrow, he began to feel nervous. If the hidden arrow was such a dangerous trap, what kind of power did the mercury possess?

As Liu Yuyang thought about all this, a chill ran down his spine. He vowed never to risk entering such a dangerous place as an imperial tomb again. He had seen many ancient tombs before, such as the Tiger Tally and the Temple of the Sun, but he had never felt worried. But this time, he was genuinely afraid. This was perhaps the unique quality of the musician Huang Lin. The "Eighth Wonder of the World" was indeed extraordinary.

The hall may contain tens or even hundreds of tons of mercury. Mercury is a toxic liquid metal; anyone entering the hall would be poisoned by inhaling the mercury vapor. However, they had already been inside for a long time and had inhaled a considerable amount of mercury. But faced with this vast amount of mercury, they could not back down; they still had things to do.

“If you feel unwell or can’t keep going, just tell me and you can leave. I’m here, it’s okay.” Chen Ling knew they had inhaled a lot of mercury, and he was worried that Liu Yang’s body couldn’t handle it, so he started talking to Liu Yuyang.

Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Liu Yuyang said, "Boss, if anyone's going out, you should go first. If you're comfortable with this, I can manage here. Or, leave it to me, you can go out now." Liu Yuyang patted his chest as he spoke to Chen Ling. Hearing these words, Chen Ling felt gratified. True friendship is revealed in times of hardship. However, Chen Ling couldn't help but say to Liu Yuyang, "I'm worried about you being here alone." When Chen Ling said this, he wasn't just worried about Liu Yuyang's ability to complete the mission; he was also concerned about Liu Yuyang's health. Being alone would be more dangerous for Liu Yuyang. But Liu Yuyang didn't understand Chen Ling's implied meaning. Instead, after hearing Chen Ling's words, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Chapter 161 The Underground World

“Then let’s both stay here!” A flash of disappointment crossed Liu Yuyang’s eyes. Then Chen Ling said to Liu Yuyang, “Alright, enough of the nonsense. Let’s get down to business! We’re acting like women by rambling on.”

Chen Ling wasn't lying when he said that, because the two of them were clearly getting emotional at that moment, and Chen Ling couldn't help but shudder when he thought about it. He thought to himself, "How terrifying!"

What terrified Chen Ling was not the hidden arrows or mercury—the problems they encountered in the imperial tomb—but rather the content of his conversation with Liu Yuyang and the atmosphere they were in, which made him feel that their interaction was somewhat sentimental.

Just then, they began to return to their studies. They officially resumed their research on the architecture of these imperial tombs. They were pondering the intricacies of the hidden arrow traps. These traps were actually quite simple, nothing more than ordinary mechanisms. It was just that the hidden arrows were rather vicious, which was why they had been initially at a loss. The traps themselves were easy to make; what puzzled them was the mercury.

They studied the mercury in the main hall and discovered that it reached a depth of 35 meters, penetrating three layers of groundwater. The underground palace was 15 meters high, equivalent to a four-story building, which astonished them. Chen Ling was only able to accomplish this with the help of a system; otherwise, he would have found it difficult to complete even with modern technology. He couldn't believe that the ancients had such architectural ideas and concepts so many years ago, and he couldn't help but marvel at their wisdom.

The distribution of mercury in the main hall was also matched with a map of the Qin Dynasty's territory, which piqued Chen Ling's curiosity about how the ancients had managed it. Chen Ling and his companions began to study it, momentarily overlooking the fact that mercury was poisonous. Prolonged inhalation of mercury had already begun to cause their physical condition to slowly decline.

Just then, Liu Yuyang suddenly said to Chen Ling, "Boss, how's your research going? I feel a bit unwell. How are you feeling?" Liu Yuyang asked Chen Ling hurriedly.

Upon hearing Liu Yuyang's words, Chen Ling suddenly felt dizzy. He said to Liu Yuyang, "My head is a little heavy, but I can bear it a little longer. Have you found anything over there?" Chen Ling knew that if they left this time, they might not have another chance to come back. Therefore, he cherished their time in the imperial tomb. Just then, Liu Yuyang said to Chen Ling incredulously, "I think I've discovered rivers, lakes, and seas made of mercury here; it's practically an underground world."

Upon hearing Liu Yuyang's words, Chen Ling quickly ran to Liu Yuyang's side, urgently asking, "Where is it? Where is it?" At that moment, Liu Yuyang pointed to the location of the mercury. Chen Ling was initially shocked upon seeing it, finding it unbelievable. Then, he led Liu Yuyang downwards, intending to investigate what this underground world was all about.

Before long, they arrived at this underground world. Faced with the rivers, lakes, and seas before them, they were utterly astonished. They had never imagined that such a vast world lay hidden beneath the musician Huang Lin.

They were awestruck by the sight before them. Such a magnificent feat fascinated them, and they were eager to know how the ancients had accomplished it, beginning to carefully observe these rivers, lakes, and seas. However, their physical condition simply prevented them from continuing their observation!

Faced with the problem of declining physical fitness, Chen Ling suddenly realized that he could use Endless Ice Seal to freeze the mercury! A flash of inspiration struck him, as if he had discovered a new continent. He said to Liu Yuyang, "I have a way, wait." After saying this, Chen Ling began to use Endless Ice Seal. When the freezing cold reached the mercury in the hall and then the rivers, lakes, and seas before them, it instantly condensed into ice. Endless Ice Seal had worked, effectively stopping the mercury problem. The mercury was frozen solid, no longer flowing outwards.

Just then, after the mercury was brought under control, their physical condition began to recover. This was thanks to their initial job change, which allowed them to recover so quickly!

Soon after their bodies recovered to peak condition, they resumed their research on the rivers, lakes, and seas. Without the worry of mercury, they became even more engrossed in their studies. They memorized the wonders of the underground world, preparing to utilize these concepts in their third structure.

After a while, they prepared to return. They had studied everything inside the imperial tomb, and it was time to leave with their spoils.

And so, they stood up and prepared to leave. When they reached the main hall, they came to the coffin of the musician Huang, intending to take another look at him. After looking at it, they said to Huang, "I'm sorry for disturbing you." They sincerely apologized to Huang, after all, they had disturbed Huang's tomb and made such a mess of it, shattering the terracotta warriors and freezing the mercury. These cultural relics and historical sites had been largely destroyed by them.

They felt deeply apologetic for all of this. But there was nothing they could do. These artifacts belonged to the past; their current task was to present them in a better way in modern times and maximize their impact. Thinking about this offered them some solace.

Liu Yuyang knew that Chen Ling felt somewhat guilty, after all, the musician Huang Lin, known as the "Eighth Wonder of the World," had been ruined by them. So Liu Yuyang patted Chen Ling on the shoulder and said, "Let's go." At that moment, they began to walk out of the hall…

Click, click, click... After leaving the hall, they closed the door. They felt a mixture of joy at their successful trip and remorse for leaving behind cultural relics and historical sites.

Torn between these two feelings, they walked on, struggling internally. They thought they were almost home, but unexpectedly, they found themselves in another predicament. This once again highlights the brilliance of the musician Huang Lin.

Just then, a strong wind began to blow outside the main hall, stirring up the sand on the ground, and the sand kept piling up...

Chapter 162 Countering Moves

Just then, a bad premonition arose in their hearts. They suddenly realized that perhaps the real storm had only just begun. However, this time they were not intimidated, because they firmly believed that the big company had already made its decision, and they were determined to win.

These sands are called quicksand tombs, and anywhere from a few tons to hundreds of tons of sand are placed around the wooden tomb passages. If a tomb raider accidentally touches a brick, he will be buried alive. They intend to use violence against these quicksand tombs, specifically the weapons and supplies given to them by Leader Zhou.

They hadn't used any weapons until now. This time, they were preparing to deploy them. However, at that moment, Chen Ling said to Liu Yuyang, "Prepare to use the weapons." Chen Ling simply said this, but it had a huge impact. The weapons were incredibly powerful, although they were only small neutron bombs, far inferior to conventional bombs and hydrogen bombs. But they were more than enough to deal with these quicksand tombs.

At that moment, a small neutron bomb, 30 tons in blazing light, began to advance without hesitation towards these quicksand tombs.

Before long, the sand that had been so menacing settled obediently on the ground. Having escaped the quicksand tomb, they were finally able to return home.

"Boss, we didn't waste any time on the quicksand tomb." Liu Yuyang dealt with the quicksand tomb in the shortest amount of time using his weapons. He felt a little smug and began to speak to Chen Ling.

“Yes, we didn’t waste any time on this, but we wasted too much time on the mercury earlier, so we need to hurry back.” Chen Ling turned to Liu Yuyang and said after hearing his words.

"Yes, we need to hurry back and report to Leader Zhou," Liu Yuyang nodded and said.
