"We learned an astonishing piece of information—this place is the Pangu Vein, which existed since the beginning of chaos. In the art of Feng Shui, it is truly a corpse vein surrounded by dragons!"
"But thousands of years ago, the earth's veins were severed. Feng Shigu planned to turn Coffin Mountain into a tomb for him to cultivate into an immortal, so he used deceptive means and called himself the ancestor of earth immortals!"
"Many people believed in him and followed the Earth Immortal into the mountains with their entire families, creating a grand Earth Immortal Village with two levels, Yin and Yang!"
"This layout is derived from ancient Feng Shui methods, which combine Yin and Yang, and is specifically used to restore the earth's dragon vein energy!"
"To protect his secret of wanting immortality, the Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor was buried outside Coffin Mountain!"
Based on the murals on the wall and his previous experiences, Su Mo recounted the origins of the Earth Immortal Village.
After hearing this, Lao Hu remained silent for a long time.
After a long silence, Old Hu shook his head and said, "This Feng Shigu has really gone mad. How could he believe such nonsense?"
Yao Mei'er said, "Alright, let's hurry up and find Feng Shigu's body first."
"it is good."
Just as they were about to continue forward, the fat man, who was peering through the crack in the doorway, suddenly said nervously, "Gentlemen, I have a feeling something big is about to happen here. Quick, look outside and see what's going on!"
Old Hu pushed open the window, his face filled with utter astonishment.
It turns out that this coffin mountain was located at the bottom of a mountain that was a thousand meters high, and the mountain above it was like a mound of earth covering a grave.
At this moment, blood-red light flickered intermittently within the rock strata overhead.
Dark red fog seeped from the rock crevices, and a cold, fishy odor wafted through the air.
However, the surroundings remained dark and silent.
Shirley and Lao Hu quickly opened the Vajra Umbrella, and everyone hid behind it.
Thunder rumbled in the air, and then a torrent of blood-stained raindrops began to fall.
"Holy crap, the hell is it raining blood from underground?"
Su Mo frowned. "Close the window. This is the blood of corpses from the Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor!"
Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor is a copper-corroded material formed from the fermentation of corpse blood.
Shaped like coral spines or plant roots, they grow more and more when buried in the soil.
The liquid secreted by this plant is almost like corpse blood and is extremely poisonous.
The thing Su Mo had been thinking about had unexpectedly appeared.
"It seems that the Jingling Armor has already penetrated the rock strata and is gradually growing into the Coffin Mountain. It may not be long before the entire Earth Immortal Village is swallowed up by the Bronze Blood Erosion!"
"Even if we don't come to raid the tombs, the ancient tombs in Dixian Village will be destroyed by Jinglingjia sooner or later."
While Lao Hu and Shirley were talking, the couple simultaneously looked at Su Mo.
Given the current situation, it's clear that Su Mo, with his exceptional combat power, is capable of handling it!
Chapter 392: Danger, Danger
The blood rain has stopped!
It stopped without any warning!
Except for the blood mist that was still lingering and hadn't completely dissipated, everything seemed to have returned to normal.
But Su Mo knew that the more this was the case, the more dangerous it was.
The Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor has appeared; if they make a move, they could be killed at any moment.
He himself was alright, but Lao Hu and the others were no match for the Nine Deaths Shocking Armor.
The atmosphere inside the building was eerie; no one spoke.
"remember!"
Su Mo reminded them, "Candles are not allowed in the Earth Immortal Village..."
Su Mo looked at Lao Hu with utmost seriousness, "Even if you are a tomb raider!"
"Why?" Shirley asked curiously.
Su Mo said, "The layout of the Immortal Village in Coffin Mountain is the same as that of Qingxi Ancient Town. Every house and courtyard is no different from those in the human world!"
"But, I don't know if you've noticed, there are no candles, lampstands, or lamp oil in any of the houses here, and there's not even firewood in the kitchens!"
Everyone nodded. In fact, Lao Hu and Shirley had already noticed this problem.
They simply assumed it was a burial site, so they didn't think much of it.
Su Mo explained, "The layout of the Earth Immortal Village resembles a fireless lampstand, which is a layout that is averse to fire!"
"If we delve deeper, this must be related to the story of the Guanshan Feng family destroying the Tomb Raider Seal and the Tomb Raider Talisman during the Yongle era!"
The fat man suddenly woke up and said, "Feng Shigu is on guard against us?"
Su Mo nodded, "That's right, it's right here, guarding against tomb raiders!"
"Splash splash splash!"
Just then, a faint and eerie sound rang out.
This eeriness was like a sudden surge of icy coldness.
No one knew what was happening, but a terrifying atmosphere suddenly arose.
Everyone looked outside.
Outside the Bone-Hiding Tower, blood mist filled the air, and near the coffin-shaped cliff outside the Earth Immortal Village, a dense cacophony of sounds could be heard.
It was as if a surging tide was flowing towards the ossuary.
There wasn't a single living person in Coffin Mountain, so how could such a commotion suddenly occur? Moreover, it sounded like there were quite a few of them, and it wasn't the kind of copper-corroded, rubbing sound that the Nine Deaths Shocking Tomb Armor made.
"The visitors are hostile; something terrible is about to flood into the Earth Immortal Village!"
The fat man immediately hid behind Su Mo.
Su Mo raised an eyebrow and said, "It's a coffin worm!"
Coffin worms, also known as coffin worms, are maggots that grow in the walls of coffins.
It has fleshy wings and seven pairs of mandibles, and it is only interested in gnawing on decaying things.
The smallest are as small as a grain of rice. But the largest can grow to the size of a seven- or eight-year-old child's palm.
Most of the tomb raiders had seen this kind of thing before.
However, in those ordinary ancient tombs, even if there are multiple corpses in one tomb, the number of coffins would not be too many.
Therefore, even if coffin worms appear, there are never too many of them.
As long as the number is small, it can be dealt with. But things are different here.
They felt fear and a chill creep up their spines without even realizing it.
It's because this place is no ordinary ancient tomb.
Along their journey, they discovered many wooden hanging coffins hidden within the Coffin Gorge.
The entire pit and valley were filled with vines, mud, moss, and corpses.
It is infested with many coffin worms that gnaw on moss and wood chips.
Their numbers were so great that even the Guanshan Taibao led by Feng Shigu back then could not completely eradicate them.
Once you're surrounded by these insects, not even a bone fragment will be left.
The sound of insects crawling in the distance grew ever closer, making one increasingly uneasy.
Before long, the dense swarm of coffin worms had crawled to the window.
Su Mo released his Azure Dragon Blood Qi as usual, but the coffin worms only paused for a moment before continuing to crawl towards the group.
"You all leave!"
After a loud shout, Su Mo slammed his fist into the ground.
With a loud "bang," a huge crater appeared in the ground, flying debris and filling the air with dust, as countless coffin worms sank in.
The remaining coffin worms seemed to sense that Su Mo was a dangerous person, and they all attacked Su Mo at once.
Su Mo's body soared into the air, tumbled a few times, and then landed steadily on the ground.
He stomped his foot on the ground, his whole being like an enraged leopard, staring fiercely at the person opposite him, his eyes filled with murderous intent!
An invisible pressure descended, like a primordial beast.
The coffin worm's advance came to an abrupt halt.
This action bought Lao Hu and his companions time to retreat, and they quickly headed towards Corpse Mountain.
Su Mo, wielding the Crimson Sky Sword, led the way alongside the Bashan Ape and the others.
Fortunately, the thousands of coffin worms that were disturbed by the copper corrosion did not crawl to the belly of Corpse Mountain.
The eerie, ghostly silence of the place remained. Everyone rushed inside, already panting heavily.
"It seems... this place is... truly safe now!"
The fat man was carefree; with the immediate crisis resolved, he was too exhausted to think about anything else.
Old Hu and Su Mo looked up and saw a huge monument on the hillside outside the village.
The inscription on the stele reads "Tomb of the Earthly Immortal, Lingxing Palace," and behind it lies a deep ravine.
Old Hu walked into the deep ravine and saw that it was pitch black, silent and eerily quiet. His heart sank, and he had an ominous feeling that he had just escaped the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den.
Just as Lao Hu was about to go down and scout the way, he heard a loud rumbling sound.
The group consciously looked up.
However, the underground was pitch black, and even a flashlight was swallowed up by the darkness just three meters away. In addition, the scarlet mist of the Nine Deaths Terrifying Armor in the air had not completely dissipated.
They can't see what's inside the rock strata now.
"Is this mountain going to collapse?"
"Do not…"
