Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin: I Set Taboos in the Heavens

Chapter 7: Walking Towards the Light
When Pangbo announced his name, all the students in the bronze coffin were shocked and had strong doubts.

Because Pangbo did not attend the previous class reunion, how come Pangbo was in this coffin again?

Could it be that this Pangbo is a ghost?
Pangbo gave his own explanation. He did not come to the party due to some personal matters, but after knowing that everyone would meet at Mount Tai, he came directly. Then he encountered the bronze coffin and was sucked into it.

Pangbo's words finally dispelled everyone's doubts, but everyone still felt panic about their current situation.

They are now in a bronze coffin. Coffins have always been a symbol of bad luck. Many of the strange and bizarre scenes in novels and movies take place in coffins. Now that they are in the coffin, if they stay there for too long, they may feel uneasy.

"Everyone, don't panic. Stay together and don't separate. Look at the environment we are in to see if there are any clues."

Fang Qing spoke again at this time.

His voice remained steady, bringing peace to many students.

In such an environment, having someone taking the lead can make everyone feel more at ease, and sticking together for warmth is a good choice.

Everyone fell silent and looked at the carvings in the bronze coffin.

The engraving shows a ferocious nine-headed divine bird spreading its wings and flying high, a huge beast covered with thorns and roaring to the sky, and some legendary ancient beasts, such as Taotie, Qiongqi, and Taowu.

In addition, there are ancient ancestors and ancient gods, who seem to be explaining some past history.

There are some strange patterns on the bronze carvings, which are densely packed with stars and seem to be a map of the starry sky.

What made everyone feel a little scared was that there was another bronze coffin inside the bronze coffin, which was less than four meters long and less than two meters wide. It was covered with bronze and engraved with the vicissitudes of time. It made people feel cold, for fear that a big dumpling would jump out of it, and everyone would be doomed.

No one dared to open the small coffin to take a look, and Fang Qing had no intention of opening the small coffin.

This small coffin is not suitable to be opened at this time. Ordinary people probably can't open it either.

Fang Qing and a group of classmates walked around the bronze coffins. Apart from the small coffin that gave people a sense of oppression, nothing dangerous happened. Everyone finally calmed down and speculated about everything in front of them.

"Fang Qing, you have read many ancient books. Is there any record of what happened today in the ancient books?"

Wang Ziwen asked.

After he finished speaking, many students looked at Fang Qing, hoping to get some positive response.

"Dragons are something that only exist in myths and legends. We all know that Huangdi and Chiyou fought a fierce battle. Both sides invited many gods and immortals. Later, Huangdi invited Yinglong to help. Yinglong helped Huangdi defeat Chiyou, making Yanhuang the mainstream of the era. Chiyou was killed and the Jiuli tribe was defeated."

Fang Qing started talking, telling a legend from ancient times, and then continued: "In the legends of ancient times, the existence of dragons was very normal. It's just that in our time today, the appearance of dragon corpses seems horrifying, but it's not necessarily a bad thing."

"Not a bad thing? What does that mean?"

Zhou Yi also asked.

"We Chinese have many legends and many ancestors, but over the years, the closer we are to them, the fewer such legends there are. It seems that they have all left Earth and gone to another world. Now that the Nine Dragons are pulling the coffin here, I have a guess."

"Fang Qing, what you mean is that this Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin is taking us to another world, a world where we can cultivate immortality?"

Ye Fan spoke, guessing along the lines of Fang Qing's meaning.

"That should be the case. The existence in the legend has appeared in our current era. Perhaps it is to lead us on the road of legend. This is a good thing. Maybe we can really cultivate immortality. Of course, this path also has great risks. We should all know that."

Fang Qing continued to speak.

"I don't want to cultivate immortality, I just want to go home!" "I still have a wife and children on Earth. I am not interested in cultivating immortality at all."

"I hope Fang Qing is right, but I also hope Fang Qing is wrong. Cultivating immortals, if you are not careful you could end up as someone else's soul in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. I'd rather live to be a hundred years old."

"Can you really cultivate immortality?"

Ye Fan was in deep thought.

"Why worry about so much? The current situation is not something we can decide. I hope to cultivate immortality. That's every man's dream!"

Pangbo was carefree and even a little expectant.

"We'll see what's going on later."

Zhou Yi and Wang Ziwen listened to Fang Qing's words and fell into deep thought. If this Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin really wanted to lead them into the path of cultivating immortals, there would be too many variables and nothing could be controlled by them.

The field fell into silence.

As time passed, there was a sudden bang, as if the plane passed through the cold clouds and began to shake.

"boom".

There was a loud bang, like thunder, and one could clearly feel a huge collision with the huge bronze coffin.

Although the people in the coffin could not know what had happened, they could roughly guess one thing: it seemed that the bronze coffin had landed?

There was light coming in from outside, which immediately made everyone exclaim.

Everyone cheered and rushed forward, trying to escape from this dark and terrifying space, not wanting to stay for even a second longer.

But after everyone rushed out of the bronze coffin, they were dumbfounded again.

Because what is in front of us is no longer Mount Tai. Looking around, all we see is reddish-brown land, which looks cold, hard, dry and desolate. There are some rocks dotted on the ground, like tombstones.

Between heaven and earth, the light was dim and lifeless, which made it even more terrifying.

"Damn it, we are really not in Mount Tai anymore. Are we really walking on the path of the ancient sages?"

“But this damn place doesn’t look like a place where one can cultivate immortality. To cultivate immortality, one must have the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the singing of birds, and the fragrance of flowers?”

"This is too desolate. Have we reached a forbidden area or desert in some immortal cultivation world?"

All the students looked at the barren land in front of them and felt uneasy.

"Let's explore first, maybe we can find something new."

Fang Qing opened his mouth and looked forward. There was a huge rock there, more than 20 meters high, but the slope was not too steep and could be climbed.

Fang Qing took a few steps and reached the top of the rock. Looking into the distance, he could see a faint white light in the distance.

"Let's go, toward the light."
