Urban Evil Suppression: Incorporating the Stone Hard Template

Chapter 168 The Reason for Chang Sheng's Obsession with Immortality

With Wang Beiming nodding, Zhao Hongshan's order was quickly relayed to each team.

Everyone concealed themselves and lay in wait in the shadows, quietly awaiting the arrival of the main force of the vampires.

On the other side, two vampires, who had escaped from the underground palace, were terrified out of their wits.

Fortunately, we escaped unharmed and stumbled our way out of the passageway.

Upon seeing the familiar main burial chamber of the suspected tomb, he could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

The other two vampires who stayed behind, seeing their miserable state covered in blood,

I was almost scared to death. After letting out a scream, I immediately sprang backward.

The two immediately assumed a defensive stance, slowly approaching their companion on the ground.

On one side, they were staring intently at the dark entrance to the passage.

They were afraid that if they weren't careful, some terrifying ghost might jump out from that dark entrance.

Although they themselves were not human, seeing their companions in such a miserable state...

They simply couldn't imagine what kind of beings existed down there!

How long has it been? How come there are only two left?

What about the other four? Judging from the situation, they've all definitely perished down there!

Even their leader, the Earl, was so frightened that he looked like a ghost.

Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine. I wonder how much time has passed?

The two vampires, their chests heaving and panting heavily, finally caught their breath.

However, the terrifying scene of life and death from before still lingered in my mind.

Staring at the dark entrance to the passage, the lead vampire growled in a hoarse, foreign language:

"No...don't go down...you can't go in there...there are restrictions."

Heh heh... that restriction can suppress... suppress strength... and it also has terrifying, deadly mechanisms...

The two vampires who remained finally understood what was going on from this fragmented narration.

However, the more he listened, the more terrified he became. Looking at the entrance to the passage, he subconsciously took two steps back.

Then one of them carried a companion on his back and kept a safe distance from the cave entrance, which was filled with the aura of death.

The lead vampire struggled to pull a specially made communicator from his pocket.

He handed it to one of his men, and said in a weak voice:

"Report to the Duke immediately... the treasure must be down there... be careful..."

"Yes, sir!" The subordinate who took the communicator dared not be negligent in the slightest.

They immediately contacted the Duke, whom the leader of the vampires had mentioned, and reported the news.

……

Meanwhile, Ling Feng, venturing deep into the ancient tomb, avoided countless treacherous traps along the way.

Relying on the feng shui secrets inherited in his mind, combined with the method of observing qi,

After several twists and turns, we finally arrived at the main burial chamber!

But when he used his magic to push open the heavy bronze door, the scene that came into view...

He was stunned and stood there dumbfounded. Was this still a tomb?

Are you sure you haven't gone to the wrong place? No, this is no longer a tomb in the traditional sense.

This is a complete underground palace! Whose proper tomb is as big as several football fields?

Even someone as knowledgeable as him couldn't help but feel a bit shocked!

And... what's that overhead? Is it a palace dome made of giant rocks?

Ling Feng felt a chill run down his spine. These people from three hundred years ago...

Under what conditions was this extremely bizarre project completed?

Ling Feng composed himself and strode inside.

His gaze was drawn again to the cold, white light shining down from above.

That fist-sized... glowing thing embedded in the gap of the dome

What the hell is that? Could it be... a luminous pearl?

Were there really such large luminous pearls in ancient times?

Ling Feng swallowed hard, realizing that he was indeed quite ignorant.

But... is this thing safe? Are you sure it won't emit any radiation?

Using the cold light emitted by the luminous pearl, Ling Feng walked step by step inside.

The further they walked, the more shocked they became by General Chang's arrogance!

The thick iron bars, each as thick as a person's embrace, were used as pillars to support the palace.

The ground was entirely made of a single, meticulously polished slab of stone.

The walls surrounding the palace were not ordinary stone walls; judging by sight, they were probably made of white jade or something similar.

Under the cold white light of the luminous pearl, a faint milky white halo appeared.

When his gaze swept over the funerary objects piled up on both sides of the palace,

Even Ling Feng, who wasn't particularly interested in money, felt a twitching in the corner of his eye and a slight toothache.

Seriously, is this guy really that ruthless? Hundreds of boxes of neatly arranged gold and silver jewelry?

Each box was an official silver box in the style of ancient government offices.

It is about one meter long, sixty centimeters wide, and fifty centimeters high. One box can hold several thousand taels of silver.

This general was no respectable man; his burial goods were worth millions of taels of silver.

Tsk tsk tsk... Although I don't know what the burial goods in the suspected tomb above were,

But even without guessing, it's obvious that it can't compare to these!

As Ling Feng continued walking inside, his gaze gradually turned to the murals carved in the palace.

I wasn't attracted by the beautiful style of the carving, but by the content of this relief.

The record no longer details the glorious past of General Chang's life of battles.

It was him... The reason and process by which he obtained the Qilin Jade!

Ling Feng slowed his pace, his gaze carefully sweeping over each stone carving.

The first image on the relief depicts General Chang, who is old and bedridden!

Because of his lifelong fighting, he suffered greatly from illness in his later years!

(Don't ask Ling Feng how he gleaned so much information from a single picture; I don't know either!)

Just when the doctors were at their wits' end, a group of sorcerers came to their door and offered their services.

They used Taoist magic (evil and secret techniques) to temporarily cure him!

However, this group also said that this is only a temporary solution and not a cure.

To completely cure his body, the effects of the Qilin Jade must be utilized.

But how easy is it to obtain the Qilin Jade? Just finding out where it is will take time!

And so, at Chang Sheng's invitation, the group of alchemists moved into the general's mansion.

Whenever Chang Sheng had health problems, this group of sorcerers would cast spells to temporarily relieve his pain.

Seeing this, Ling Feng understood, recalling the description in the local chronicles:

General Chang's obsession with immortality in his later years must be related to this, right?

Ling Feng put aside his distracting thoughts and continued reading the inscription on the stone:

What is this depicting? I don't quite understand it.

Oh... this is... the effects of evil magic are getting weaker, so they've switched to elixirs?

They've run into the obsession with immortality again...
