Magic: Reincarnate from high-voltage electricity at the start, level up independently.

"coffin?"

Chu Ge, intrigued, slowly walked to Xu Wan's side and whispered, "Let me see."

"Look here." Xu Wan took half a step to the side and pointed to the depths of the soil she was digging.

Chu Ge looked in the direction she pointed and saw a dark corner emerging from the ground.

Even though it hasn't been completely excavated, its outline is clearly the edge of a coffin lid.

"I'll do it."

Chu Ge took the hoe from Xu Wan and quickly dug away the soil.

In just a short while, a complete black coffin was fully revealed to the two of them.

The flickering firelight inside the tunnel illuminated the entire ancient coffin, making it completely visible.

It was pitch black, without any intricate patterns or ancient seal script, and there was not a trace of decay on its body, giving it an indescribable eeriness.

"What do you plan to do?" Xu Wan raised an eyebrow at Chu Ge. "Should we bury it back, or open it up to find out what's going on?"

"I want to open it and take a look."

Chu Ge's gaze remained fixed on the black coffin, his expression calm.

She didn't smell the slightest odor of rotting corpses, nor did she sense any danger.

The coffin looked like it had just been buried, and its strangeness was unsettling, filling her with doubt and curiosity.

"Alright, then I'll open the coffin."

Xu Wan raised her hand and placed it on the coffin lid, pushing it slowly while muttering, "Let this Great Emperor see if there are any rare treasures hidden inside."

Before she was destroyed and then rebuilt, her physical strength had already reached nearly one ton.

Logically speaking, pushing open a coffin lid should be an easy task.

But at this moment, no matter how hard she tried, the heavy coffin lid remained completely still.

"Damn it! I refuse to believe this!"

Xu Wan was immediately furious.

It was one thing for her to be suppressed by Chu Ge with a single palm strike before, but now even a broken coffin is trying to bully her.

The girl rolled up her sleeves, clenched her teeth, lowered her body, and pushed her brute strength to the limit.

"Damn it! Open it!"

"Tatakai!"

A furious shout echoed through the tunnel.

A few flocks of crows flew by...

The coffin lid remained firmly attached to the coffin body, without the slightest loosening.

Xu Wan slumped her grip, took a deep breath, and her eyes hardened with determination: "Fine, you forced me to do this!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she clenched her fist and slammed it down hard on the heavy coffin lid!

"Bang--!"

A dull, loud noise reverberated throughout the tunnel, the echo lingering for a long time.

The punch landed as if striking an indestructible steel plate, without causing the slightest ripple.

"Let me do it." The white-haired girl standing to the side couldn't stand it anymore and took half a step forward.

"Heh, you're here? What a joke!" Xu Wan's face turned ashen, and she sneered.

The next moment, she swung both fists simultaneously, her fist shadows raining down on the coffin lid.

"Aaaaaah!"

"The Ultimate Technique!"

"Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist!"

"Heavenly Emperor Fist!"

A series of domineering moves were unleashed, causing the entire black coffin to tremble slightly.

One minute later.

Xu Wan, panting, stopped and dejectedly squatted down in a corner, head drooping: "...Then you can do it."

She stretched out her index finger and drew circles on the ground, as if a dark cloud was hanging over her head, and she was full of depression.

Chu Ge looked at the girl's appearance and shook his head helplessly.

Although Xu Wan is ruthless enough to herself, she is still as naive as someone her age in some things. She easily becomes discouraged by the slightest setback.

She stepped forward slowly, gently placed her fair hand on the coffin lid, and gave it a slight push.

"Click—"

A slight opening and closing sound suddenly rang out.

Xu Wan, who was squatting in the corner drawing circles, froze and suddenly turned her head to look.

The seemingly solid coffin lid was suddenly pushed open by Chu Ge, revealing a deep darkness inside.

What, are you kidding me!

Xu Wan immediately stood up, rushed to the coffin, and after confirming it several times, her face was full of resentment.

She forced a smile, her tone suddenly becoming more assertive: "The coffin must have been stuck! I'll try again, this time I'll definitely be able to push it open!"

After saying that, she reached out again, exerting all her strength to unleash her brute force.

Another minute passed.

In the corner, this time, the black-haired girl drew circles on the ground with both index fingers, muttering pitifully:

"Waaaaah, this is so awful! Why is it like this?!"

The emperor does not easily shed tears, unless he is truly heartbroken.

"strangeness."

Chu Ge's gaze swept back and forth between Xu Wan and the black coffin, a hint of doubt rising in his heart:

"I didn't use much force just now."

Could it be that she is the only one who can open this ancient coffin?

To confirm her suspicion, she raised her hand and gently pushed again.

Sure enough, the heavy coffin lid was as light as a feather in her hands, and she slid it away easily.

Chu Ge used his strength to completely lift the coffin lid, which then fell heavily to the ground.

The firelight surged into the dark coffin, illuminating the scene within—

A ball of milky white flesh, about the size of a basketball, huddled quietly in the corner, its surface slowly wriggling, exuding a strange vitality.

"Xu Wan, stop crying and come over here," Chu Ge called out.

"Here it comes!"

Xu Wan puffed out her cheeks and stormed forward. The moment she saw what was inside the coffin, her brows furrowed.

"Do you think this could be a Tai Sui?" Chu Ge wondered, but he wasn't entirely sure.

"It's probably true." Xu Wan wasn't sure either, as she had never seen a real Tai Sui in person.

She turned to look at Chu Ge: "Did you bring your phone?"

"Give."

Chu Ge unlocked his phone and handed it to her.

Xu Wan turned on the flash, took a picture of the Tai Sui inside the coffin, and then spoke directly:

"Doubao, Doubao, can you take a look? Is this the legendary Tai Sui?"

Chu Ge, who had been watching the whole thing from the sidelines, was speechless.

As expected of Xu Wan, her actions are always unpredictable.

"How do you say 'doubao'?"

"She said yes."

"Then that's it." Chu Ge nodded slowly.

There were already some suspicions, but now that Miss Dou has confirmed it, it's completely certain.

"So what do we do now?" Xu Wan asked.

"I don't know, but I'd like to try a bite first."

Chu Ge reached out and picked up the lump of Tai Sui, then took a bite out of it.

In the novel, Tai Sui is a rare treasure of heaven and earth, and eating it can enhance one's cultivation.

In reality, she remembered that there was an episode of "Approaching Science" that talked about this, saying that some villagers soaked Tai Sui in water and drank it to prolong their lives.

"What does it taste like?" Xu Wan asked curiously.

"It doesn't have any special flavor."

Chu Ge spoke calmly, handing the Tai Sui to Xu Wan: "Would you like to try some?"

"OK."

Xu Wan took the Tai Sui and took several bites, but it was indeed bland and tasteless.

He quickly lost interest, returned the Tai Sui to Chu Ge, and turned his gaze to the black coffin.

She pondered for a moment, then her eyes suddenly lit up.

Before Chu Ge could react, Xu Wan pounced forward and began to bite into the coffin.

"What are you doing?" Chu Ge was stunned.

"Haven't you read 'Covering the Sky'?" Xu Wan mumbled as she chewed, biting off a large chunk of coffin wood with a loud crunch.

"The ancient coffin of enlightenment that Pang Bo chewed on was forged from the main stem of the immortal medicine. It was an unparalleled opportunity. Chewing on the coffin would allow one to increase their cultivation level dramatically."

At the same time, Xu Wan was filled with doubt. The coffin that she couldn't even smash with her fists before could now be easily gnawed open with her teeth.

"You mean the story of Pang Bo achieving enlightenment through unconventional means, becoming emperor by gnawing on a coffin?" Chu Ge instantly realized.

In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, Pang Bo's talent was not considered top-notch, but he managed to reach the Great Emperor realm by relying on an ancient coffin for enlightenment.

"Yeah!" Xu Wan continued gnawing on the coffin, her tone indistinct. "This coffin has a faint, pleasant fragrance; it tastes much better than the Tai Sui (a type of fungus). Want some?"

"it is good."

Chu Ge glanced at the Tai Sui, which was only a third of its original size, and then joined in gnawing on the ancient coffin.

The coffin's aroma lingers at the entrance, and a refreshing breeze flows through your body, making you feel invigorated and unable to stop, becoming more and more addictive with each bite.

Twenty minutes later, the two men had completely devoured the coffin, and its belly was swollen and bulging.

Xu Wan leaned against the wall to get up, rubbed her bloated lower abdomen, and let out a burp:

"Don't touch the remaining coffin lid and the Tai Sui. Let Yang Xueli study them. We stole so many of her vegetables earlier, so this is a small compensation."

"Okay." Chu Ge nodded, then let out a burp, unable to eat another bite.

She thought for a moment and added, "How about we split it into two portions? I'll keep one for my aunt; she's a research fanatic too, she'll probably be interested."

After discussing it, the two decided to stop stealing vegetables and began to backfill and bury the pit in the tunnel.

The next morning.

Chu Ge and Xu Wan took the initiative to find Yang Xueli and confessed what they had done the night before.

Just as Xu Wan had expected, Yang Xueli was taken aback at first, her brows furrowed, and she seemed to be angry. But after a moment, she slowly relaxed.

"Sigh." Yang Xueli sighed softly, "What's done is done, what more can I say?"

Her tone abruptly changed, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two girls with a hint of inquiry:

"You two are really something else, always choosing to steal and eat these magical plants that would kill any ordinary person, yet you always end up unharmed."

"After this study tour ends, I will apply to your school to stay and assist me with my special research."

Despite her petite stature, Yang Xueli possesses incredibly sharp eyes that convey an undeniable air of authority.

"no problem!"

The two spoke in unison, already mentally prepared.

Xu Wan then handed over some of the prepared Tai Sui and half of the coffin lid to Yang Xueli.

Although Tai Sui is unusual, it is still acceptable.

But when Yang Xueli saw the half of the pitch-black coffin lid clearly, she remained silent for a long time.

Question: Was this really dug up from my field?

……

At the entrance of the Magic Plant Research Center.

The bus was surrounded by students, all crowding around Wang Jian, eagerly awaiting what would happen next.

Five days of the seven-day study tour have already passed, and the arrangements for the remaining two days have yet to be revealed.

"Teacher Wang, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us about our next itinerary!"

"Yes, it's been six days already, everyone's getting impatient!"

Faced with the students' urging, Wang Jian adjusted his glasses, his gaze slowly sweeping over everyone, and spoke calmly:

"The plan for the next two days is—"
