The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

Many people couldn't hold back any longer and shouted, "This is actually a flying sword! Flying swords are a technique that only a Celestial Master can master!"

"This...this is the Celestial Master's flying sword!"

Many people were muttering to themselves as if possessed, and their eyes were filled with reverence for the flying sword.

Although they were only on the fringes of feng shui and tomb raiding, they knew the powerful figures in this field.

That Celestial Master was a once-in-a-century figure, and it was their good fortune to have the opportunity to meet him today.

Kui San lay on the ground, originally hoping that the tall, thin man would avenge him and torture Fang Yun properly. But now, his eyes were wide with fear, and he dared not utter a single word. Although he was in excruciating pain, he dared not speak.

The tall, thin man's face was ashen. He pointed at Fang Yun and said, "You, you actually..."

Before he could finish speaking, the tall, thin man turned deathly pale and fainted.

Fang Yun snorted coldly and retrieved his flying sword. Dealing with this kind of person, being kind and tolerant is completely useless; only by beating him into submission can you get rid of this nagging.

"you?"

At this moment, Fang Yun finished dealing with the tall, thin man and turned to look at the ordinary retail investors beside him.

Many retail investors were so frightened that they knelt down and cried out, "Master, spare us! We were all blind and dared to offend you. We deserve to die!"

"Please, Celestial Master, spare our lives and give us a chance to atone for our sins. We will serve you to the death from now on!"

“Yes, Master, from now on we will be your eyes and ears. We will report to you immediately if there is any news about this kind of large tomb.”

Among these people were some clever ones who knew that Fang Yun must have come here today because he was interested in that large tomb, and since this Celestial Master cultivated magic, he naturally cared a lot about feng shui and the five elements.

This great tomb holds too many secrets, so it's naturally a place the Celestial Master would definitely come to.

So when they offered to help Fang Yun find these tombs, Fang Yun hesitated, as expected.

Of course, Fang Yun didn't really intend to settle scores with these people; they were just a bunch of ants, not worth getting too angry about.

"Get up, all of you. Let's just forget about what happened today. But there's one condition: you're not allowed to tell anyone what you saw today. Otherwise, you know it's very easy for me to find out."

Fang Yun said.

"No, no, we'll keep this to ourselves today." Many people nodded vigorously and hurriedly agreed.

Only then did Fang Yun have time to properly examine the tomb and observe the progress of the others. Clearly, they still hadn't figured out a good solution, and they were still unable to enter the tomb. They were simply wasting time outside.

At this moment, the three people also noticed what was happening. They originally looked down on these insignificant people, but it wasn't until the tall, thin man used magic that they sensed something ominous.

They hadn't expected that the tall, thin man would also have the cultivation of a half-step abstaining from grains. They were still planning how to deal with him when Fang Yun appeared and even knocked the tall, thin man unconscious.

"Gentlemen, it seems we have quite a few competitors today. This tomb hasn't even been opened yet, and another one has already arrived."

Although Ke Qiang said that a competitor had come to remind the two of this, he didn't seem worried at all.

He had just observed Fang Yun's performance briefly. Although he was unsure of the truth, Fang Yun's strength appeared to be only at the initial stage of the Bigu realm. While quite strong, it wasn't something that would cause him any concern.

The other two were not particularly affected either.

Chapter 430 Taking Action Again

"Brother Ke, you wouldn't be trying to get us to keep an eye on that kid who suddenly appeared, so you can reap the benefits without lifting a finger, would you?"

Gu Tingfang's lips curled up slightly.

"That kid may have some skill, but that's about it. As for the leader of their team, that guy surnamed Chen, he's barely passable. How strong could he be if we beat him?"

Bai Hansheng, who was standing to the side, also spoke up: "I've never seen that kid before. He shouldn't be from any of the big families in Guangling. Although he may have had a lucky encounter and mastered martial arts through his own abilities, without the support of a family or powerful backer, this is probably the best he can achieve."

Bai Hansheng's meaning was very clear: there was no need to pay attention to Fang Yun at all, because no matter how strong Fang Yun was, he could only go so far, while they could keep climbing higher and higher. Once the gap between the two widened a little more, there would be no comparison at all.

"Alright, let's not waste time on irrelevant people. Now I propose that since we've been unable to break through for so long, how about we make an agreement in advance, open the door together, and divide the contents inside equally?"

Ke Qiang spoke again.

"You should know that if we really fall out and start fighting, not only will we not get our share equally, but we may also end up losing to each other and the other side will benefit."

"But if we can work together, then this great tomb will belong to the three of us. Even if someone else comes, they'll have to think twice before trying to force their way in."

Ke Qiang's suggestion was quickly agreed upon by Bai Hansheng and Gu Tingfang, since they didn't have any better options.

Since we can't keep everything to ourselves, we should maximize our profits.

"What about those retail investors? I remember someone just agreed to let them in too."

"Hmph, just drive them all away. Do you think they'll dare to criticize us?" Ke Qiang laughed.

As for Bai Hansheng, he expressed his attitude by remaining silent.

Looking at Fang Yun's side, he hadn't wanted to get involved in this matter anymore, but Kui San, who was on the ground, suddenly laughed and said, "Master Fang... good, good, you're amazing. But if Brother Chen doesn't wake up, you'll be in trouble too."

“He’s not like us, all alone. He comes from a prestigious sect, and I just heard that his senior brother is coming to find him.”

"So what if you are a Celestial Master? Don't those famous ancient sects have old-school Celestial Masters? Besides, they have many magical treasures. You can only fight alone. You'll have to suffer the consequences yourself."

This time, Fang Yun didn't let Kui San say anything more. He felt that the other party was too noisy, so he just gave a look, and a few sensible people went over and dealt with Kui San on their own.

Just then, Ke Qiang and the other two walked towards the cave entrance from a distance. They then used a secret technique, and with their combined efforts, the entrance actually started to move little by little, eventually revealing a crack.

When the gap widened a little more, the retail investors began to get excited. Many of them said, "Master Fang, the ancient tomb is about to open. They promised to give us a chance to go in too. Let's go now so we don't miss it."

Fang Yun nodded and followed the group. These individual investors knew that to protect their rights, they had to cling to Fang Yun's coattails, so they all subtly followed behind him, as if he were their leader.

The three men had obviously noticed the situation and naturally didn't want these people to go in together, but they couldn't openly break their previous promise.

They came up with a delaying tactic: once they had thoroughly searched the place, it wouldn't matter if they let these people in later.

"You all wait outside for now. We'll go in and scout things out first. Otherwise, with your strength, going in will probably just be a pointless death."

Ke Qiang's words were not wrong. The larger the ancient tomb, the more ingenious the traps inside. Ordinary people probably couldn't even dodge one of them and would just become sitting ducks.

"Oh, is this the leader you chose? Did he bring you here?"

At this moment, Ke Qiang noticed Fang Yun walking at the front and sneered.

"Your cultivation level is not bad, but I still advise you to go back and cultivate more. It is extremely dangerous in here (Zhao Li's place), and it is not something you can control. If you die tragically in there, wouldn't it be a waste of all your skills?"

Fang Yun didn't say much, only simply saying, "There's no need for you to trouble yourself with that."

Ke Qiang, having made a fool of himself, remained silent, but the look in his eyes clearly indicated that he looked down on Fang Yun.

"If you don't have the ability, but dare to do things beyond your capabilities, you're just courting death. You'll regret it later."

As for Gu Tingfang, although her cultivation level in this province may not be as high as Fang Yun's, their strength lies in their magical artifacts.

With those magical artifacts, even without lifting a finger, he could easily crush Fang Yun.

Chapter 431 Threat

Before long, with the combined efforts of Ke Qiang, Gu Tingfang, and the other two, the door to the ancient tomb finally opened slowly.

They were all people who had studied tombs for many years. Although it was a large tomb, they were not so bad that they couldn't even get through the main gate.

Once the door opened, everyone wisely refrained from rushing in immediately. Not only was there a large amount of murky gas inside that needed to settle for a while, but no one knew whether there were any dangerous species inside.

Although these retail investors are very enthusiastic and afraid of missing out on good deals if they are a little slow, they can still exercise some restraint when faced with a basic threat to their lives.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn had passed, Bai Hansheng succinctly uttered a few words: "You can go in now."

Then, the group walked towards the gate together. Fortunately, the gate was wide enough to allow many people to enter at the same time; otherwise, who would go first would have been another difficult question.

After the three leaders went in, their bodyguards and servants followed them in.

Finally, a group remained outside the gate; this group was responsible for guarding the gate and relaying messages.

Of course, another function is to keep an eye on Fang Yun and his group of retail investors, who have to wait another hour before they can go in.

These were all rules that had been established beforehand, so although these retail investors were anxiously waiting, they had no other choice.

Fang Yun took this time to observe the surrounding mountains, trying to deduce the general appearance of the ancient tomb from the shape of the mountains.

That way, you won't be lost and directionless when you go in, and the progress will be much faster.

Finally, an hour passed slowly as everyone waited anxiously. Many people looked at Fang Yun, some unconsciously lingering not far from him, while others walked quickly, deliberately trying to create distance.

(bjbd)

Fang Yun naturally understood the considerations in these people's minds. Those who were close to him wanted to guard against danger, but doing so might mean they wouldn't get anything good.

Those who are far away from him are more eager to gain something themselves, otherwise they certainly cannot compete with Fang Yun.

Both choices have their own merits, and Fang Yun has nothing more to say.

"Master Fang, do you think it would be better for us to go next?"

Soon after, someone came up to them, smiling, and asked.

The cave was almost completely dark. Apart from the faint light from the flashlights, everything else was pitch black, making it impossible to find one's way.

"I've never been here before either, so I just went by instinct."

Fang Yun's answer did not satisfy many people. They had thought that Fang Yun had some kind of supernatural means to quickly find the right path, but they did not expect that Fang Yun was just using the same stupid method as them.

In that case, they might as well find their own way; that way, if they come across anything good, at least it will be theirs.

So, after walking a few more miles, Fang Yun noticed that fewer and fewer people were following him.

"Judging from the moss growing on this stone, this place must be several hundred years old. I wonder whose tomb this is, that the corridor is built so wide."

Fang Yun carefully searched his memory of history, trying to recall if there were any high-ranking officials in Guangling hundreds of years ago.
