Twelve necromancy instructors led the way, escorting Fang Heng and the others towards Empress Persephone's mausoleum.

Just like the last time, after everyone entered the sandy area ahead, the rotten ground gradually began to surge, and a large number of undead skeletal creatures emerged from the ground.

However, this time, Fang Heng had changed from a guardian to an invader.

For the instructors, mere undead skeletal creatures couldn't stop them from advancing; they easily used necromantic spells to eliminate the skeletons that swarmed from all directions.

Fang Heng followed behind the instructors, and as they walked, he suddenly sensed something and looked around.

"Wait!"

Fang Heng reached out and stopped Li Shaoqiang and the other two, who were preparing to assist the instructors.

"What's wrong? Did Boss Fang discover something?"

A hint of doubt appeared in Li Shaoqiang's eyes.

"Don't attack yet; something seems off."

The two immediately stopped and carefully observed the surrounding skeletal creatures.

After Fang Heng's reminder, they quickly realized the problem.

Something was strange.

These skeletal guards didn't seem to harbor any hostility towards them.

To be precise, the skeletal guards were all heading towards the necromancy instructors.

Fang Heng even suspected that if the necromancy instructors hadn't come along, these skeletal creatures might not have revived at all.

Tan Shuo speculated, "We all have Empress Persephone's mark in our sea of consciousness. Perhaps the mark is making the undead skeletal guards think we're allies."

Fang Heng thought for a moment and said softly, "Don't attack for now. Actively attacking the skeletons might backfire, and if the ice crystals are affected, it'll be troublesome."

"Leave this to us; you guys follow behind."

Instructor Guluo nodded after hearing their conversation and, along with the other instructors, broke through the skeletal creatures' attacks, advancing towards Empress Persephone's mausoleum.

The three followed behind the group, slowly advancing towards the mausoleum.

Meanwhile, in the main hall of the Necromantic Council.

The Necromantic Council camp used more than a dozen mirror images to cover every action of Fang Heng's group in almost every area without any blind spots.

"It seems to be related to Empress Persephone's mark."

A high-level councilor observed their actions and nodded, saying, "If they can be immune to the mausoleum guards' attacks, perhaps we can explore the deepest parts of the mausoleum this time."

Everyone looked at the mirror image, feeling somewhat nervous.

"I have a question."

A necromancy instructor asked, "Since the mausoleum guards are triggered by invaders, if only Fang Heng and the others enter the mausoleum, will the mausoleum guards stop being triggered?"

"If that's the case, the risk of our exploration will be greatly reduced..."

Hearing this, the council's high-level members gathered together, whispering and discussing among themselves.

Originally, the Necromantic Council chose to have Instructor Guluo and his group accompany Fang Heng and the others to protect them and provide greater assistance. Now, it seemed that this choice might backfire and affect Fang Heng's group's exploration.

"Well, let's watch first. It's not too late to have them try after entering the mausoleum."

Soon, through the mirror projection, the Necromantic Council members saw Fang Heng's group successfully pass through the outer area of Empress Persephone's mausoleum.

Fang Heng stopped outside the mausoleum, examining the entire mausoleum that exuded the power of death.

"Fang Heng, do you still have the stone slab?"

"Yeah."

Fang Heng took out the stone slab from his backpack.

"Chī chī chī..."

The stone slab heated up slightly, and then lines of text gradually appeared on the slab, as if they were being carved out stroke by stroke.

Instructor Guluo frowned slightly as he looked at the information on the stone slab.

"The council elders and we have the same judgment. The Empress's mausoleum guards are very likely triggered by sensing our presence. They suggest we split up and have you three try to enter the mausoleum to explore first, while we three stay outside for now."

"Well, alright. Let's listen to the council elders' arrangement and try it out first. If you encounter any trouble, retreat immediately."

"Understood."

Since the necromancy instructors were in a soul mirror state and couldn't carry items into the Death Realm, Fang Heng and the other two each brought a stone slab.

Li Shaoqiang took out his stone slab and handed it to Instructor Guluo.

Fang Heng and the others continued to advance towards the interior of the mausoleum.

In the Death God state, the three's movement speed was much faster than before.

Fang Heng led the way in the front, and soon they passed through the main entrance passage of the mausoleum, and a familiar area passage appeared ahead.

Inside the high-level council hall of the Necromantic Council, everyone's breathing became rapid when they saw Fang Heng and his group successfully enter the mausoleum without even triggering the alarm. Some people couldn't help but start suggesting the next step.

"Quick, guide Fang Heng to the Hall of the Redeemers. That area has always been sealed off in the previous few times, and we've never known what's inside!"

"No, there's something more important. Remember those special inscription stone blocks we saw in the prison cell? Those stone blocks have special energy induction, and they've never been excavated before. We can't judge the attributes of their power from the appearance alone. If we can bring them out and use mental power to trigger the inscriptions..."

"The Empress Persephone's biographical records are the most important. With the records, we can completely decipher the text of the necromantic world during the Empress's era and understand the meaning of the mausoleum's construction..."

Everyone spoke at once, and the entire council hall became a bit chaotic for a while.

"Alright, everyone, quiet down for a moment."

Georgi pressed his hand down, signaling everyone to stop arguing for now.

"Everyone, don't rush. We've already waited for so long, and we don't mind waiting a little longer. We still have time. Let's take it step by step, starting from the least risky upper level. Let's go to a few mausoleums to observe and verify whether some of the items stored inside can be brought out of the Death Realm as we expected."

"The Speaker is still the most thoughtful. Let's start from the upper level."

The Speaker spoke, and everyone stopped discussing and immediately gave channel guidance through the stone slab, while informing Instructor Guluo and his group waiting outside the mausoleum about Fang Heng's situation, asking them to continue waiting at the entrance.

Fang Heng and the others were exploring forward inside the passage when suddenly, they felt the stone slab on their bodies heat up slightly.

The Necromantic Council had sent a message!

Fang Heng immediately raised his hand to signal everyone to stop and took out the stone slab to check.

Only to see lines gradually appearing on the stone slab.
