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

Who is not afraid of death? They should fear it before they die. If they fear death only when they are about to die, then death is inevitable. Who is not afraid of illness? They should fear it before they become ill. If they fear illness only when they are already sick, then illness is difficult to cure.

"Pity....."

A hint of compassion flickered in Master Yuanxin's eyes:

"General Chang Shiwan inside this coffin was still too hot-blooded and didn't know how to 'let go'. If he could understand my Buddhist scriptures, he wouldn't have ended up like this!"

"Let go of the four elements and five aggregates, and the seeds of emotion and consciousness. A true practitioner is like someone who has just experienced a great death and then come back to life. In this great death, there is no worldly entanglement, no mysterious principles. Only through such a great rest can one truly be a…"

..........

With a sharp "smack!", Wang Yueban held his forehead with one hand.

"Here we go again... Master Yuanxin, if you want to save all living beings, at least consider the occasion! The current situation is very abnormal. If this continues, I feel..."

Just as Wang Yueban was muttering to himself, Wu Xie suddenly stepped forward, grabbed his arm, and pulled him back.

"Alright, Fatty Wang, something's not right. Say less. I have a feeling that General Chang Shiwan is about to wake up. I just felt his knuckles twitch twice!"

Before Wang Yueban could speak, Jiang Jiaxu, who was carrying a camera, couldn't hold back any longer:

"Yes... I noticed it too, and I held back from saying anything. It's all because of that fatso's jinx, saying something like 'the big cat jumps over the belly' and the body revives during a funeral!"

"I reckon the body of this general, who has been dead for over a thousand years, is probably going to turn into a 'zombie' by now!"

...........

After hearing Jiang Jiaxu's remarks, Wang Yueban subconsciously swallowed.

"Hey... don't look at me like that, pleading look. I may be a tomb raider, but I'm not omnipotent. Look at General Chang Shiwan right in front of you. He was bound by seventy-two bronze chains before he died!"

"Anyone with eyes can see that this originates from the legendary Qimen Dunjia, the Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends Method within the Dragon-Locking Well. I reckon this guy can no longer be called a 'zombie'!"

Hearing Wang Yueban's voice, the burly young man remained subconsciously rooted to the spot. What was this body that couldn't be called a "zongzi"?

"Alright, Fatty, I'll just be blunt with you. In our tomb raiding records, 'Zongzi' is a general term, but it can be further subdivided into..."

[Purple zombie, green zombie, hairy zombie, flying zombie, wandering corpse, lying corpse, uncorrupted bone...]

"Let me make this clear beforehand, Fatty, I haven't even seen all of these 'zongzi' yet... The types listed don't mean which one is more powerful; they're just names for the mutations of the dead!"

"This General Chang Shiwan before us has been dead for a thousand years, yet his body remains incorrupt, and his skin is as smooth as that of a living person. This is clearly abnormal!"

"Well... I think Jiang Jiaxu's suggestion was good! Let's force our way through the Corpse Fiend Eight Trigrams Formation. If anyone is unlucky enough to trigger a trap, that's just fate, like winning the lottery. If we can successfully reach the entrance of the tomb, then we're blessed by the heavens and Buddha!"

Wang Yueban looked extremely ugly. He looked at the crowd in front of him and weakly began to explain. Although he was unwilling to admit it, the "thing" in front of him was clearly beyond his capabilities!

"No way... You're a tomb raider! If you can't handle this guy, what are we going to do?"

The burly young man, Jiang Jiaxu, looked terrified. The camera on his shoulder trembled slightly as he subconsciously looked up at the bronze coffin not far away!

"Kakaka!"

Several strange noises suddenly rang out. General Chang Shiwan, imprisoned by bronze chains, began to exert force at his finger bones. The roe deer's corpse, broken in two, was visibly kneaded and deformed by immense force...

1.8

It looked like it was about to be crushed into mincemeat...

The crowd tensed up instantly, as the body of General Chang Shiwan seemed about to break free of its shackles!

"Fatty Wang, why are you still hesitating like this? Didn't you say you had glutinous rice or something? Hurry up and sprinkle it on! Oh, and that black donkey hoof from the Great Xia Federation's ancestral tradition, didn't you say it contained some kind of 'evil-removing' power? Just hit it with that stick! If you don't hurry... I feel like it's about to break free!"

The burly young man, Jiang Jiaxu, hurriedly began to explain!

"Fine! I'll go all out, Fatty!"

Wang Yueban was also desperate. He grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and threw it on the body. The rice landed on General Chang Shiwan's body, but instead of stopping the attack, it further catalyzed his physical reaction skills.

"Well... I think Jiang Jiaxu's suggestion was good! Let's force our way through the Corpse Fiend Eight Trigrams Formation.

It looked like it was about to be crushed into mincemeat...

The crowd tensed up instantly, as the remains of the 16 "Chang Shiwan" generals before them seemed poised to break free of their shackles!

"Fatty Wang, why are you still hesitating like this? Didn't you say you had glutinous rice or something? Hurry up and sprinkle it on! Oh, and that black donkey hoof from the Great Xia Federation's ancestral tradition, didn't you say it contained some kind of 'evil-removing' power? Just hit it with that stick! If you don't hurry... I feel like it's about to break free!"

The burly young man, Jiang Jiaxu, hurriedly began to explain!

Wang Yueban was also desperate. He grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and threw it on the body. The rice landed on General Chang Shiwan's body, but instead of stopping the attack, it further catalyzed his physical reaction skills.

Bound within seventy-two bronze shackles, his body began to expand and contract slightly, his muscles bulging and undulating. The metal armor and bronze chains on his body rubbed violently together, producing a piercing metallic crackling sound!

Upon seeing this scene, Wang Yueban subconsciously muttered:

"Damn it, it seems there's only one last way. No matter what kind of existence this 'zongzi' is, or whether it was the experimental subject for the 'King's' immortality in the Wang Qin Empire, as long as its body is still 'organic matter,' it can be solved!"

"This is described in my tomb raiding notes!"

"The 'zongzi' is an evil spirit. If you set it on fire, you will hear a sizzling sound, and blood will gush out and bones will rumble."

"Fire! We need fire! Does anyone have a lighter or gasoline on them?"

Hearing Wang Yueban's anxious voice, A Ning, standing to the side, subconsciously rolled her eyes:

"Alright! Wang Yueban! You'd better be more reliable. These days, people carry gasoline when they go up the mountain or onto the water. That stuff is contraband. If the Federal Inspectorate finds it, you'll be detained for at least a few days!"

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

Upon hearing this, Wang Yueban spread his hands:

"Alright... Don't say anything. I suggest everyone head towards the entrance of the tunnel. Life and death are predestined, wealth and honor are determined by fate. At least if you die, you'll have a whole corpse. This big guy in front of us is clearly not a 'good guy.' If it breaks our shackles again, no one here can stand against it. We'll be devoured alive!"

At this point, Wang Yueban grabbed Wu Xie with one hand and prepared to run towards the exit of the main tomb chamber!

.....

Wu Tianjiao, who had been at the very front of the crowd, suddenly spoke up:

"Don't panic, things haven't reached an insurmountable point!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Tianjiao immediately focused his attention on the items in the system taskbar without hesitation!

[The Corpse-Fixing Pill X1 must be placed inside the mouth; it is a dark purple bead that the "zongzi" (a type of rice dumpling) holds in its mouth.]

(If you don't want to encounter any resurrected zombies, please use this in advance.)

I spent 500 gold coins to exchange for this item, and now it can come in handy!

Wu Tianjiao felt the power within his body, focused his mind, and locked his eyes on General Chang Shiwan's face. During this time, he paid no attention to the bulging muscles of the other party that were about to shatter the bronze chains!

Just then, a subconscious fantasy flashed through my mind again: a figure in armor with a blurred face began to perform movements! In that instant, I understood!

Upper lip: This is where the nasal cartilage and bone connect, and the nerves are close to the cortex, making it the most vulnerable part of the human body!

Wu Tianjiao took a step forward, his body lunging forward, and he reached into his robes to take out the "Corpse Fixation Pill"!

With his other hand, he reached forward and struck Chang Shiwan's jaw hard with the little finger side of his palm. Then, his knuckles bent, and he switched to a quick punch.

With just the right amount of force from above and below, Chang Shiwan's mouth was forcefully separated!

Opportunities are fleeting!

Wu Tianjiao reached out and inserted the two fingers holding the Corpse-Fixing Pill into General Chang Shiwan's mouth!

After the deep purple bead entered Chang Shiwan's mouth, his previous struggles completely disappeared!

...

"Hey! As expected of our brother Wu Tianjiao, he resolved this critical situation with just one move!"

Wang Yueban, who had been holding Wu Xie's hand, let go of him, looked at Wu Tianjiao not far away, grinned, and the tension in his heart eased slightly!

......

Wu Tianjiao did not lose focus. He keenly observed that General Chang Shiwan was acting very strangely. The dark purple bead that entered his mouth made a faint "click" sound!

Wu Tianjiao instinctively shone his flashlight beam and saw that the "corpse-fixing pill" Chang Shiwan had mentioned already showed some cracks! 733

Upon seeing this scene, Wu Tianjiao instinctively angrily berated the system in his mind:

"System! System, this is a counterfeit product! Wasn't the Corpse-Fixing Pill supposed to enter the body and restore an abnormal corpse to normalcy?!"

[Host! Everything on the Ultimate Treasure Trove Mall (Beginner) page is genuine. Your situation is a little different!]

[The Corpse-Fixing Pill is just a basic item, but the strength of the target it's applied to far exceeds the item's effectiveness. It's like using a few milligrams of toxin on an elephant—it won't actually kill it, but it will work on a lab rat!]

Upon hearing this, Wu Tianjiao realized that things were getting tricky, but while the pills were still effective, he decided to complete the previous task first.

Thinking of this, Wu Tianjiao took a step forward, stretched out his hands, and, suppressing the discomfort in his heart, imagined the "Chang Shiwan" general in front of him as a pillar and gently embraced him!

That is, the system notification sounded in Wu Tianjiao's mind again!
