Tomb Raiding: The Bloodline of Dragons and Snakes, Starting from the Kunlun Divine Palace

Unexpected things are bound to happen, since these corpse beetles are highly poisonous.

Zhang Qiling invited Wu Sansheng and the others to board the ship. Wu Sansheng and the others naturally wanted to board as well, but they didn't know how.

There were corpse beetles all around us. Did they have any weapons? The weapons were all on the ship.

He can only be beaten passively.

After giving Wu Xie a pill, Wu Tianjiao quickly got up.

He took out his Myriad Manifestations Umbrella.

Pressing the button on the Thousand Chance Umbrella immediately launched a steel rope.

They tied Wu Sansheng and the others together, then took them away from the water and back to the boat.

Zhang Qiling twirled the black gold ancient sword in his hand, cutting his own finger.

A drop of blood was thrown from the air. It spread instantly.

They routed the group of corpse beetles.

The young man's Qilin blood has become even stronger than before.

However, due to excessive blood loss, the young man's face turned somewhat pale.

"Bro."

Wu Tianjiao hurriedly launched the rope inside the Thousand Chance Umbrella again, and the young man caught it.

They were then brought up as well.

Wu Tianjiao helped the young man up, saying, "He's still working so hard."

However, Wu Tianjiao knew that if the young man didn't do that, so many corpse beetles wouldn't be eliminated in a short time.

These insects and the like rely on their sheer numbers.

Unlike a giant like the Sin Eater, everything will be fine once you defeat it.

Wu Tianjiao hurriedly took out a blood-replenishing pill and fed it to the young man.

He was never stingy with money when it came to the young man.

"Brother Wu, we're counting on you to get through the corpse-strewn area from now on."

The young man lay on the boat and slowly opened his eyes.

"Don't worry, get some rest. We'll still be fighting side by side during our trip to the Lu Palace."

"Brother Tian, ​​is Xiao Ge alright?" Wu Sansheng asked as he walked over.

Wu Tianjiao shook his head. "It's nothing serious, just a little blood loss. I'll be fine after a while."

Wu Sansheng sighed.

"I never imagined this trip to the Lu King's Palace would be so dangerous. We haven't even found the location of the Lu King's tomb yet, and we've already encountered such a formidable group of people."

"We really owe you a lot this time, otherwise we would have been... Of course, we also have to thank you, Brother Tian, ​​for saving us just now."

Wu Tianjiao patted Wu Sansheng on the shoulder, "Third Master, you're too kind. Since we're all here together, we're teammates."

At this moment, Wu Xie was having Pan Zi bandage his wounds.

Wu Tianjiao's pills, at a dose of 0.2, could only help him clear the toxins left in his body by the Corpse Beetle King, but they couldn't heal the external injury on his neck.

Therefore, it's still advisable to bandage it up at least a little.

After Wu Xie's wounds were treated, everyone's attention turned to the Corpse Beetle King that Wu Tianjiao had thrown onto the boat.

It was really huge, it looked like a lobster, and its shell was incredibly hard.

Fortunately, Wu Tianjiao saved Wu Xie in time; if it had been a second later, Wu Xie might have lost his life.

"Brother Wu, Third Uncle, look! Why is there a bell on the tail of this giant corpse beetle?"

Wu Xie discovered an even stranger place.

Wu Sansheng squatted down and stared at the bell on the tail of the Corpse Beetle King for a long time.

"This bell is made of bronze, but why would a Western Zhou artifact appear in a Warring States period tomb?"

Wu Sansheng stroked his chin, looking somewhat suspicious and puzzled.

Chapter 182: The Corpse Pit, Female Corpse

Besides tomb raiding, he also does some antique business.

So he could recognize the material of the bell at a glance, and even its age was a pretty accurate estimate.

"Third Uncle, could that bewitching voice just now have come from this thing?" Wu Xie asked.

Wu Sansheng nodded. "Yes, probably."

No sooner had Wu Sansheng finished speaking than the Corpse Beetle King suddenly awoke, and that strange, headache-inducing bell rang once again.

Hai Shao couldn't take it anymore. He staggered over and stomped on the jingling bell.

Although the headache-inducing noise was gone, Hai Shao's reckless actions almost drove Wu Sansheng crazy.

This is a bronze bell produced in the Western Zhou Dynasty, a genuine bronze artifact.

If I take this back, I'm sure I can sell it for a lot of money.

Just as Wu Sansheng was about to teach Hai Shao a lesson for his 16 useless and troublesome fellows, Wu Xie suddenly shouted, pointing to the broken bells on the ground.

"Third Uncle, look! A centipede crawled out of this bell!"

Wu Sansheng was taken aback. He turned around and saw that a long, thick centipede had indeed crawled out of the bell. At this moment, Wu Tianjiao also squatted down, feeling a sense of admiration for the wisdom of the ancients.

"Brother Tian, ​​did you see something? Why is there a centipede hiding inside this bronze bell? The bell is airtight, won't it die inside?"

"of course not."

Wu Tianjiao picked up the Corpse Beetle King and looked at its tail.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the legendary symbiotic system. Wu Xie, look, there's a round tube inside the tail of this Corpse Beetle King, and this tube connects to the Corpse Beetle's belly. The centipede will also use this tube to crawl into the Corpse Beetle's belly to eat. This ingenious design can make the Corpse Beetle and the centipede immortal."

Wu Xie nodded, and after hearing Wu Tianjiao's explanation, he felt that this matter was indeed quite amazing.

However, here's the problem: this guy has a symbiotic system on him.

Then it must have been placed there by someone, which means that this corpse beetle is not wild, but most likely artificially bred.

It's not hard to understand why these corpse beetles are artificially raised; perhaps they're there to guard the tomb. But why would the owner of these corpse beetles create a symbiotic system inside the corpse beetle king's belly?

Is it just to let these corpse beetles live a little longer?

Wu Xie felt that things were not that simple.

All living things reproduce. If they wanted the corpse beetles to guard their tombs, all they needed to do was let the corpse beetles reproduce. Why would they go to so much trouble to develop a symbiotic system?

"This thing feeds on rotting corpses here, and its yin energy is extremely heavy, so we can't kill it yet. We need to use its yin energy to cover our life energy. Whether we can get through the corpse-filled area ahead depends entirely on it."

Wu Sansheng said with a frown.

The reason I frowned was because my worries were growing stronger.

This corpse beetle in front of us can't be counted as just one, it's a whole one.

Judging from its size and the aura of death emanating from it, it is clearly the overlord of this cave.

The fact that even the overlord of this cave was terrified and willing to flee for his life shows just how terrifying what lay ahead was.

Right now, the young man is out of fighting ability due to excessive blood loss. I really don't know if Brother Tian can handle it alone.

In fact, Wu Sansheng was more inclined to believe Zhang Qiling than Wu Tianjiao.

After all, they had worked together before, and he had personally witnessed Xiao Ge's strength. He had only heard some legends about Wu Tianjiao.

After all, there is an old saying: seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving.

Of course, Wu Sansheng wasn't denying Wu Tianjiao's abilities. He simply trusted the younger brother more. Afterwards, Wu Tianjiao placed the extremely Yin-heavy Corpse Beetle King at the bow of the boat.

As the two boats drifted slowly forward, the group soon arrived at the pile of corpses ahead.

The piles of skeletons emitted an eerie phosphorescence, and a crystal coffin was found on the stone wall in front of them, through which the corpse inside could be seen.

However, there is more than just a crystal coffin on the stone wall.

Opposite it was another coffin, but the corpse inside was nowhere to be found. Wu Xie had a bad feeling.

"Third Uncle, was there no body in that coffin? Or... or what?" Wu Xie couldn't finish his sentence. If there was a body inside and it was gone, that would be terrible.

Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine and makes me break out in a cold sweat.

Wu Sansheng shook his head, "I don't know, but this place is too eerie and strange. It's better to leave quickly." The group continued paddling forward, when suddenly they saw a white-clad female ghost standing with her back turned.

Hi Shao was so frightened that he screamed out loud.

However, no one had the time to reprimand him.

Because the white-clad female ghost in front of you can indeed give you a big fright.

People with heart problems would probably have already passed out by now.

Upon seeing this, Wu Tianjiao quickly jumped to the bow of the boat.

With a strong tug, the miniature version of the Faqiu Seal hanging around his neck was now in his hand.
