In Panjiayuan, the first thing they did was trick Lao Hu into going tomb raiding.

This is a nation's treasure!

My system space should be larger!

Su Mo was extremely annoyed, realizing for the first time how limited his system space was.

"Captain Su..."

Several ropes were lowered, and the members of the archaeological team slowly descended from the cliff, with the fat man being the last to come down.

After Professor Chen came down, looking at these treasures, he solemnly said to everyone, "Comrades, these antiques are priceless. You must watch your step!"

Xiao Chu nodded and said, "Professor, we understand!"

Meanwhile, behind them, while everyone was resting, the fat man grabbed a handful of treasures and stuffed them into his pocket.

This guy is really something!

Su Mo turned around and glared at the fat man, signaling him to tone it down.

Sensing Su Mo's gaze, the fat man quickly packed up his jewelry and then gave a sheepish smile.

"Look!"

Shirley Yang, who was observing her surroundings, suddenly noticed something and pointed ahead, "There's a light!"

"Where there is light, it means there is a road ahead!"

Everyone turned their gaze forward, while Su Mo silently retreated to the back, giving the fat man a wink at the same time.

The fat man, whose IQ had previously plummeted, suddenly regained his sharp mind. He stepped forward and said to the group, "Let's go, everyone, let's hurry up and move forward!"

Professor Chen nodded and said, "Okay, let's go take a look at the front!"

The group began packing up their props and backpacks and headed forward.

Su Mo stood still, pacing back and forth.

After seeing everyone walk ahead and exit the burial chamber containing the funerary objects, Su Mo waved his hand at the gold. With a "whoosh," a third of the gold on the ground disappeared, and Su Mo's system space was completely filled.

"pity!"

Looking at the remaining gold, Su Mo sighed, "I can't take all these treasures with me..."

However, Su Mo quickly came to terms with it. There are no such good things in the world. He had already made a fortune this time, so he should just be happy. Thinking about these things would only cause him more trouble.

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host, on completing your chosen mission! A golden opportunity to steal the Golden Compass from the tomb!]

Su Mo smiled slightly and used his light footwork to catch up with the archaeological team ahead.

The entire operation only took about half a minute. No one knew that Su Mo had broken away from the team, and no one knew what he had just done.

The group walked through the light and arrived at a small platform. In front of the platform was a bottomless space.

"Ghost cave!"

Upon seeing this, Sherry Yang exclaimed in surprise, "The Ghost Cave Clan's Ghost Cave!"

Chapter Thirty-Four: The Corpse-Scented Devil's Tongue

"Ghost cave!"

Xiao Sa was somewhat surprised, "This is the sacred site that the Ghost Cave Clan used to worship day and night?"

As he spoke, Xiao Sa walked to the platform, looked down, and saw that the dark abyss looked like a man-eating monster, sending chills down one's spine for no reason.

"So deep!"

Xiao Sa withdrew her foot and quickly retreated to her original position. "There's absolutely no mistake, this is the Ghost Cave!"

The fat man looked completely confused. "What are you talking about? What Ghost Cave? What Ghost Cave Clan?"

"Cough cough..."

Su Mo cleared his throat and explained, "The ancient city of Jingjue beneath our feet was built by the Ghost Cave Clan. They are called the Ghost Cave Clan because this Ghost Cave is their sacred place, and that's where the Ghost Cave Clan comes from!"

The fat man was puzzled. He glanced down and found that there was nothing there except for darkness. Why would the Ghost Cave Clan consider it a sacred place?

Ye Yixin asked with a face full of curiosity, "Where does this ghost cave lead?"

Professor Chen didn't know how to answer his student's question, because he didn't know where the other end of this ghost cave led either!

"........."

Everyone fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.

Su Mo's eyes flickered as he broke the silence, "Remember the imaginary space I mentioned? Perhaps it's connected to the imaginary space!"

"Imaginary space?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, but Professor Chen, who had long studied the Jingjue culture, suddenly realized, "How could I not have thought of that? The Void Space, it connects to the Void Space!"

Professor Chen beat his feet and pounded his chest, his face showing both excitement and frustration.

Stab it!

As usual, Lao Hu tossed down another glow stick. The crimson light kept falling and falling until it disappeared in no time.

hiss!

Everyone gasped; it was bottomless, truly bottomless.

"Waste of space!"

Professor Chen was now losing control of his emotions. "Falling from here, it's very likely not just a matter of dying from the fall, but that you'll simply vanish!"

Did they not die from a fall? Or did they simply disappear?

Aren't they the same thing?

The fat man thought for a moment, then muttered something to himself.

Old Hu seemed to understand but not quite, "Did that sparkler go to another dimension?"

Professor Chen nodded affirmatively, "This place is very likely a platform connecting to the void. The Queen of Jingjue has mastered this ability; she really can make people disappear!"

"No, I can't take it anymore!"

The fat man's legs went weak, and he squatted on the ground, clutching his head. "This is really going to kill me!"

"........."

Everyone looked at him with confusion.

"Uh…"

Old Hu sighed and explained to everyone, "Don't panic, Fatty's afraid of heights, he's been like that since he was little, we don't need to worry about him..."

Xiao Chu, Xiao Sa, and the others nodded slightly in understanding. Being afraid of heights is nothing to be ashamed of; it's only human nature.

"You...you...you've finally arrived..."

Just then, a vague voice suddenly echoed in Sherry Yang's mind.

"..."

Sherry Yang thought she was hallucinating and didn't think much of it for a moment.

"You've finally appeared!"

The sound gradually became clearer, as if it were right next to my ear.

Sherry Yang's expression changed, and she quickly asked the others, "Did you hear anything just now?"

"........."

Everyone looked at Shirley Yang with confusion and shook their heads.

"How is that possible..."

Sherry Yang's face instantly changed color. "Didn't you hear me..."

"You've finally appeared!"

The voice continued to repeat itself.

Now, Sherry Yang finally panicked. She glanced up as if possessed, her brows furrowed. "What...what is that?"

Hearing the sound, everyone looked up and discovered that there was a small stone platform above their heads.

It's creepy!

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines; the place was like hell, and they all felt a strong aversion to it.

Shirley Yang stared intently upwards, without blinking.

She had an indescribable feeling in her heart, as if the voice had come from above, and this feeling grew stronger as time went on.

The fat man, hiding on the ground, said dismissively, "Who cares? Let's just go up and take a look..."

The fat man pointed to the side and said, "That's a mountain path, you can go up there!"

Upon hearing the sound, everyone looked over and found that, just as the fat man had said, there was a path leading to the mountainside that stretched all the way ahead, connecting to a small stone platform above.

"Let's go... let's go take a look!"

Su Mo took the initiative to speak, leading everyone slowly up the mountain path.

"Eh?"

After walking for a while, Xiao Chu spoke up again, "Why is there still a big wooden stake up there?"

Su Mo activated his Golden Eyes, glanced at it, and then said, "That should be the Kunlun Divine Tree?"

Xiao Chu then asked, "Kunlun Divine Tree? What's that? I've never heard of it."

"Humph!"

Su Mo smiled and was about to explain when he heard Professor Shen behind him sneer, "You ignorant fool, you've never even heard of the Kunlun Divine Tree!"

Xiao Chu: "..."

Professor Chen continued, "Kunlun Sacred Wood. This is a top-grade sacred wood; legend has it that using it to make a coffin can protect the corpse for ten thousand years without decaying!"

This time, it was Su Mo who was surprised; he hadn't expected Professor Chen to know these things as well.
