Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn

On the underground river.

The battle between the two rice dumplings and the worm continues!

The great battle they unleashed caused the entire underground river to churn.

Iron-Faced Man slammed the Huo Clan Undying Worm into the river with a punch and a kick. Even though the Huo Clan Undying Worm was covered with scales, it still couldn't stop Iron-Faced Man from inflicting damage on it.

Countless green sap flowed from the wounds of the Ho's Immortal Worm.

The blood-red threads emerging from the Great Witch Zongzi's body hindered the movement of the Huo Clan's Undying Worm.

With the help of the two rice dumplings, they finally forced the Huo's Immortal Worm against a cave wall.

Then, Tie Miansheng jumped onto Huo's Undying Worm and swung his fists fiercely, punching the worm's already broken wounds one after another.

boom!

boom!

The shockwaves reverberated in all directions. It was unclear whether the Blood Corpse Iron-Faced Man was venting his anger or mistaking the Huo Clan's Undying Worm for Li Changsheng.

In short, it lasted a full fifteen minutes!

The half of the Huo Clan Immortal Worm's body was finally broken in half by the hammer.

Despite the fact that the Huo Clan Immortal Worm is immortal, it still won't die even though half of its body is gone.

However, it is ultimately just a carbon-based life form, and its physical strength is not indestructible.

Hu Bayi and his crew's explosives could blast it in two, and Blood Corpse Iron Face could do the same.

The broken-in-half-broken Hodgson's Immortal Worm wriggled on the water's surface.

Iron-Faced Sheng wanted to fight again, but then Li Changsheng's voice came from the shore.

"Alright, that's enough. Just bring back the Undying Worm's head."

Iron-Faced Man immediately stopped, carefully dragged the front half of Huo's Immortal Worm's body, and obediently went ashore.

This half of the immortal worm, wearing a golden mask, was about two or three zhang long and as thick as a water bucket.

Through the edge of the mask, the mouthparts of the immortal insect can be faintly seen.

Its mouthparts are somewhat similar to those of a sand snail, with layers upon layers of sharp teeth inside the round mouthparts.

Li Changsheng felt nauseous at the sight and, unwilling to do it himself, instructed Da Wu Zongzi and Tie Miansheng to find a box inside the mouthparts of the Huo Clan Undying Worm.

The two rice dumplings dared not disobey Li Changsheng's orders and hurriedly began rummaging through the mouthparts of the immortal worm.

Not long after, a small box made of some unknown material was found.

The box was neither gold nor jade; it was entirely black and about the size of a washbasin.

However, since it had just been taken out of the immortal worm's body, it emitted a nauseating stench.

Li Changsheng nodded slightly, opened the black coffin, and let the Great Shaman and Iron-Faced Sheng go inside.

The two rice dumplings probably accepted their fate, or perhaps they realized they couldn't resist, and obediently went into the black coffin without causing any trouble.

Only after the two rice dumplings were placed into the black coffin did Wu Xie dare to approach.

He looked at the stinking box on the ground and covered his mouth and nose in disgust.

"Brother, what is this? It stinks!"

Li Changsheng was troubled; this box was so disgusting that he didn't want to handle it himself.

Seeing Wu Xie offer himself up, he immediately laughed and said, "This is a good thing; it contains all of the secrets of the Prince of Xian. Do you want to know?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie's eyes widened, his face filled with curiosity.

Professor Sun and his daughter, who were not far away, were equally excited.

Their painstaking planning was all for the purpose of uncovering the secrets of the King Xian, so that they could find the mysterious organization behind the mercenaries from back then.

only……

Wu Xie wanted to go forward, but the smell on the box made him feel nauseous again.

"No, brother, the box smells terrible."

This box had been inside the body of the immortal worm for who knows how many years; it was almost completely permeated with the stench.

"Idiot, why don't you wash it in the river?!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xie suddenly realized what was happening.

He nodded quickly, then, trying his best to suppress his nausea, picked up the box and ran quickly towards the dark river.

After washing for most of the day, Wu Xie finally carried the box back to the shallows.

After the sticky substance mixed with various stains on the box was washed away, the four of them were finally able to see the box clearly.

The box depicts a magnificent palace nestled among the clouds!

Inside the palace, a person sat high on a throne, while gods and immortals below offered their congratulations. The palace was shrouded in celestial mist, and countless fairies danced gracefully.

After just one glance, everyone understood the meaning of the pattern.

The person on the throne in the palace is most likely King Xian, which means that after King Xian became an immortal, he was worshipped by all the immortals.

"Hey, this King Xian is quite the dreamer. Someone like him, can he really become an immortal?"

Along the way, the extravagance seen in the sacrificial burial ditch, the numerous elephant skeletons, and the construction of such a large tomb deep in the mountains—it's easy to imagine that countless lives must have been sacrificed.

Given the extent of King Xian's cruelty, Wu Xie felt from the bottom of his heart that he could only descend to the eighteenth level of hell, and could never become an immortal or an ancestor.

Just then.

Professor Sun, who had remained silent, sighed softly and began to recite a poem.

"In the immortal's cave, I slept as a feather, and one day I ascended to the ninth heaven. The spiritual spring washed away my three lifetimes, and I rested quietly on the jade terrace, accompanied by the moon."

"This is a folk song passed down in my clan since ancient times. The elders once said that it contained the secret of King Xian. But I thought it was just a joke. Now it seems that King Xian probably really wanted to achieve immortality through corpse liberation."

Although the people of Zhelong Village, where Professor Sun lives, are descendants of the trusted guards of the King of Xian, two thousand years later, no amount of confidants can make a difference.

Moreover, they have been trapped on Zhelong Mountain for a thousand years, and have repaid all their debts of gratitude.

What troubled Professor Sun was that because of King Xian's unrealistic dream of becoming an immortal, the ancient Dian Kingdom was destroyed, his ancestors were trapped in Zhelong Mountain, and Zhelong Village was almost wiped out.

"The Immortal's Acupoint?"

Professor Sun was just reciting it casually, but when Wu Xie heard those three words, he suddenly seemed to realize something and exclaimed in surprise.

"Brother Wu, what's wrong?"

"I remember now. When I was a child, my grandfather told me that there are countless auspicious burial sites in the world, but the rarest of all are the Immortal's Burial Sites! Legend has it that as long as you are buried in an Immortal's Burial Site, you can become an immortal after death."

At this point, Wu Xie scratched his head.

"Of course, legends are just legends, and even my grandfather didn't know what the Immortal's Cave actually looked like or what its feng shui layout was. He said at the time that perhaps only someone with the surname Zhang, and a true descendant of the Tomb Raiders, could decipher the Immortal's Cave."

When Wu Xie mentioned the tomb raiders, he couldn't help but think of Fatty Wang, whom he met in the Lu Palace.

It's a pity we didn't know there was a magical cave in Zhelong Mountain back then, otherwise, given how greedy that fat guy was, he would have come running there on his own.

Thinking of this, Wu Xie couldn't help but look at Li Changsheng.

"Brother, Fatty Wang seems to be a genuine tomb raider. Maybe he knows something."

Of course, Wu Xie was just saying that.

They are currently underground, and there is no cell phone signal, so they cannot contact Fatty Wang even if they want to.
