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

Li Changsheng looked at Professor Sun and spoke calmly.

What do you want?

"I want to go into the main tomb and see if King Xian has successfully achieved immortality through corpse liberation."

Professor Sun actually had one more thing he didn't say: if the Prince of Xian really succeeded, he hoped to ask the Prince of Xian for help in avenging his family.

Even though he didn't say it, Li Changsheng could roughly guess what he was thinking.

From the few words spoken by Professor Sun and his daughter, one can discern that the group of mercenaries from twenty years ago were not only mysterious but also incredibly powerful, with connections to the highest levels of society.

Although Professor Sun is a descendant of Zhelong Village, he is ultimately just an ordinary person, and his identity as a folklore professor cannot help him take revenge.

That's why he seemed possessed, wanting to enter the tomb of King Xian, with the ultimate goal of seeing King Xian and using his power to take revenge.

Unfortunately, he was overthinking it!

Even if King Xian could achieve immortality, given his tyrannical and selfish nature, he would most likely be too lazy to pay any attention to the descendants of his former personal guards in Zhelong Village.

Li Changsheng shook his head slightly, but didn't pay any attention to Professor Sun.

"If you can keep up, then go ahead, but if you encounter any danger, I won't come to your rescue."

"My daughter and I are already very grateful that the real person allowed us to come along."

Professor Sun nodded, then pointed to the enormous Lingyun Immortal Palace in front of him and explained.

"Master, this palace before us is called the Hall of Meeting Immortals. According to King Xian's plan, after he transcends death and becomes an immortal, he will hold a banquet for all the immortals of the Heavenly Court here."

Upon hearing this, Li Changsheng remained noncommittal, but Wu Xie, standing to the side, couldn't help but mutter a sarcastic remark.

"This King Xian really dares to think so. Just for his despicable act of refining Gu infants, even if the gods in heaven came down, they should strike him dead with a bolt of lightning."

"That's right!"

Ma Liang nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Wu Xie's point.

All I can say is that King Xian's methods of cultivating and nurturing Gu infants were so horrific that even a dismemberment killer would probably call him a pervert.

However, just as Ma Liang finished speaking, the group suddenly heard a clear cell phone ringtone.

Instantly, everyone except Li Changsheng was startled.

Wu Xie was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening and hurriedly took out his Nokia phone from his backpack.

"Holy crap, finally we have a signal!"

Upon seeing the incoming call on his phone screen, Wu Xie was overjoyed.

Not only is Zhelong Mountain remote, but it also has various disordered magnetic fields that block signals.

This resulted in him being unable to make phone calls to the outside world for the past two days while he was in the mountains.

This made Wu Xie almost forget that he still had a cell phone in his bag.

The compact Nokia 8250 has a screen with a cool blue glow.

People in later generations, accustomed to using all sorts of smartphones, have no idea that in 2001, the Nokia 8250 was the absolute king of smartphones, selling a staggering 200 million units worldwide in just a few years.

Not only because this phone is small, but also because of its robust build quality and incredible battery life!

This 8250 boasts an incredible 150-hour battery life and is incredibly durable; you could even use it to crack walnuts without breaking it.

The call was connected very quickly.

A rough male voice came from the other end of the line.

"Hey Xiao Wu, you're really disloyal! We were comrades who went tomb raiding together, how come you haven't even contacted me?"

Upon hearing this voice, Wu Xie shrugged helplessly and looked at Li Changsheng.

"Big brother, it's Fatty Wang."

After saying that, he turned to Fatty Wang on the other end of the phone.

"Alright, Fatty, stop talking nonsense. I couldn't make calls the other day; my phone had no signal."

At this point, Wu Xie seemed to remember something and quickly added.

"By the way, Fatty, there's something I wanted to ask you."

"What's the matter? Let's make this clear first, the bronze artifacts we found in the tomb last time were only taken with Li Daxian's permission. You can't use that to argue about it."

"That's not it! I wanted to ask you something else. Do you know about the Immortal's Cave?"

As soon as Wu Xie finished speaking, Fatty Wang's voice on the other end of the phone suddenly rose eight octaves.

"The Immortal's Acupoint?"

"Yes, is that the legendary burial site where one can become an immortal?"

"I know a little, but such a blessed land simply doesn't exist in this world!"

"Who says it doesn't exist? I'm right here on the Immortal's Cave! Brother Li is right next to me."

If Wu Xie had only mentioned himself, Fatty Wang would have thought he was bragging, but upon hearing that Li Changsheng was also there, he immediately took it seriously.

So, Fatty Wang quickly asked Wu Xie to give a brief description of the surrounding environment.

When Wu Xie described the Lingyun Immortal Palace, the valley where Zhelong Mountain was split in two, and the emerald pool that was faintly visible beneath the clouds and mist, Fatty Wang instantly lost his composure.

"Damn, it really is a divine burial site with auspicious feng shui, but it doesn't make sense! The 'Dragon-Seeking Technique' in the Tomb Raider series says that all divine burial sites ceased to exist by the end of the Shang Dynasty. It's said to be related to the severing of the connection between heaven and earth."

Fatty Wang paused for a moment, then continued.

"I don't know if the 'Severed Heavenly Connection' is true or not, but the Immortal's Cave definitely doesn't exist anymore because it's too defying the heavens, and the heavens wouldn't allow it. Unless someone can use mortal power to obscure the secrets of heaven and possess a supreme treasure that can replace the dragon vein's earth energy and maintain the feng shui pattern."

Wang Pangzi's words were so logical and reasonable that Wu Xie was completely stunned.

The key point is that what he said was quite accurate!

After learning the authentic Taoist Yin-Yang and Five Elements secret techniques from An Qisheng, King Xian used the meteorite from Zhelong Mountain to construct a great array that could conceal the secrets of heaven.

At the same time, he used the Muchen Pearl in his hand to maintain the operation of the great formation.

After listening, Wu Xie couldn't help but say, "Not bad, Fatty. I didn't expect you to know so much."

"Of course, we are the true descendants of the tomb raiders."

Wang Pangzi, far away in the capital, wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself, "Is that all I know?"

This was because he happened to have a vivid memory of this passage when he became an apprentice; otherwise, he would have been completely clueless.

Thinking of this, Fatty Wang couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Hey Wu Xie, where are you right now? Why don't I fly over there right now! How could a place like the Immortal's Cave, a feng shui treasure so rare even once in a millennium, be complete without me, Fatty!"

"Alright, I'm hanging up!"

"Hey, hey, don't hang up..."

Wu Xie hung up, and when Fatty Wang heard the busy tone from the phone, he was filled with rage and frustration!

If he had known that following Li Changsheng would lead to the Immortal Cave, he wouldn't have run away!

Fatty Wang's tomb raiding skills were only so-so, sometimes effective and sometimes not.

But he clearly remembered that his master once said that if he could see the Immortal Cave with his own eyes once in his life, it would be worth dying on the spot.

It is well known that emperors of all dynasties have sent people to search for the immortal caves, especially Qin Shi Huang, who wished he could turn all the famous mountains and rivers in the country upside down!

No matter how hard these emperors searched, they could not find any sacred caves. It was not until after the Tang Dynasty that these emperors finally gave up hope.
