Tomb Robber: I, Chen Yulou, am dedicated to cultivating immortality!

According to Una.

When she came here, she was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Or it was because he inadvertently revealed his amazing talent during the sacrifice to the gods and was noticed by the gods.

From then on, Azhiya kept her by his side, thinking of training her as the next generation of wizards in the tribe.

For tribal men.

One is considered an adult only if he kills a wild animal with his own hands.

As for the wizard's inheritance, one needs to go deep into the Black Desert to find a piece of sacred tree that belongs to him.

Plus the sand dunes are moving all the time.

When we arrived that time, the ancient city had just experienced a huge storm. The layer of floating sand that buried it was blown away, and some clues of the ruins could be seen.

only……

This is clearly not the case at the moment.

Hearing the temple she mentioned, Yang Fang's eyes flickered, "Is it the black leaning tower?"

Don't blame him for thinking that.

The black tower enshrines the queen, the imaginary space, and the eyeball totem on the top, which should be an altar or a temple.

The only thing he didn't quite understand was.

Where did the stone pillar come from?

Not only him, but also Kunlun and the old foreigner beside him, all looked at her.

But after listening to Yang Fang's description, Una calmly shook her head.

"That is a ziggurat, not a temple."

"The temple is about a hundred meters away from the black tower, and is arranged like two black mountains."

About a hundred meters?

Hearing this, Chen Yulou's heart moved slightly and he fell into deep thought.

The fingers gently tapped.

Countless images emerged in my mind one by one.

Before that, he used his spiritual sense to roughly scan the area of ​​several miles around the black tower.

soon……

A building buried in yellow sand with only half of the roof exposed stood still before our eyes.

It is completely different from the Black Tower which has six or seven floors and is more than ten meters high.

The stone hall of the temple is wide and vast.

In addition, he was obscured by the surrounding buildings and did not notice much unusual before.

"What's inside the temple?"

Chen Yulou slowly opened his eyes, and as he opened and closed them, the starry sky shrouded in clouds above his head seemed to be reflected in the depths of his pupils.

Even though I've seen it many times.

Una couldn't help but marvel in her heart.

She had only seen such mysterious and distant eyes on statues of gods.

Being looked at in that way, it seemed as if everything about me was known, and I could no longer keep any secrets.

"A jade eye."

Almost subconsciously, Una responded.

"It looks like a real eyeball, even with bloodshot eyes and distinct pupils. It is enshrined deep in the temple. Ata said it is the eye of the gods, able to bewitch people and see through everything."

Jade Eyeball!!

Listen to her recall what she saw that year.

Partridge Whistle's expression suddenly changed in shock. He was usually calm, but he couldn't suppress his changing mood at all. He only felt his heart surging and his blood was surging.

That day, in the underground altar of the ancient city of Xiye.

They found one, too.

According to the murals, the queen ordered the King of Xiye to secretly imitate it.

But it was just a fake.

The real jade eyeball was made by the sage Zagrama.

The purpose is to spy on the endless deep cave under the holy mountain.

And the ancestor who was seen outside the city earlier came here just to find it.

It was a pity that the jade eyeball was controlled by the queen. He traveled back and forth for many years and finally destroyed the ancient kingdom of Jingjue, but he never got to see it until his death.

"That's it!"

"Brother Chen...real jade eyes."

When he thought that they had most likely missed the temple's jade eye just now, Partridge Whistle wished he could fly back, dig up the yellow sand, and get the jade eye.

"I know."

Noticing his fluctuating emotions, Chen Yulou couldn't help but comfort him softly.

Over thousands of years, the world has changed dramatically. Not to mention the remains of the ancestral land, even the ancient Jingjue Kingdom from thousands of years ago has turned into a pile of ruins.

Today, ancient artifacts from the era of ancient sages have appeared.

Who can still keep calm?

He was the same. Before entering the Black Desert, no, to be precise, before setting out from Xiangyin, he was determined to get the eyeball.

Of course, getting it is only the first step in the plan.

Besides.

The most important thing is the Eye of the Ghost Mother.

Just like what the Samsara Sect did back then.

Dig open the nine-story demon tower and obtain the boundless demon pupil of the first generation ghost mother Nian Xiong Hei Yan of the Snow Demon Kingdom. With it, you can open the channel to the imaginary space.

The tomb of the first generation of ghost mother is difficult to find

But the tomb of the Queen of Jingjue is right under the ancient city. It can also be done by opening the sarcophagus and getting her eyes.

And his greatest reliance is still the Zhuchen Pearl.

From ancient times to the present, in addition to the Zagrama lineage, countless people from the Samsara Sect and the Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue have been searching for its existence.

But the only ones who truly own it are the Snow Demon Kingdom and... them.

Many thoughts flashed through my mind.

In an instant, Chen Yulou calmed down.

"But……"

"It's there, isn't it?"

Before Partridge Whistle could say something, Chen Yulou gently patted his shoulder.

This sentence is so familiar.

He couldn't help but be stunned.

When he arrived here before, the old foreigner was eager to go to the holy mountain for pilgrimage. This was how he comforted himself at that time, but now that it happened to him, it was so difficult to restrain himself.

“I am anxious.”

Partridge Whistle sighed.

Since even they haven't found the temple, that in itself shows how difficult it is.

After tonight, tomorrow morning, hundreds of Xiangling bandits who are most skilled in moving mountains and leveling hills will take action at the same time. Even if they are deep underground, it won't take too long.

"By the way, Una, do you still remember the road to the underground royal city?"

Seeing that his expression had calmed down, Chen Yulou patted him on the shoulder and then looked at Una again.

"I will never forget it in my life."

Hearing this, Chen Yulou's eyes lit up, "Where is the sacred tree?"

As soon as he blurted out the words, he suddenly realized that it seemed a bit too revealing, and subconsciously added.

"Is there any danger around?"

"I just remember that the sacred tree was planted next to an underground lake... Oh, and before reaching the underground lake, you need to pass a long underground slope."

Una said softly.

As Chen Yulou's mind was empty, he slowly spread out a map.

When he was in Chenjiazhuang, he took a few days out to draw the maps of the Jingjue Ancient City and the Kunlun Temple by hand, and then repeatedly refined and supplemented them.

It can be said that the style and structure of the two ancient tombs have long been deeply engraved in my mind.

At this moment, Una's voice fell.

Among the shadows reflected in front of my eyes, one area suddenly lit up.

Underground lake.

Isn't it just a cave?

Passing through the front hall, main hall and back hall, and going up a slope, you can reach the place that Una mentioned.

only……

In the entire tomb of King Jingjue, the shamans of the Turkic tribes of all generations have only walked less than one-third of the way.

Not to mention the queen's coffin, even the burial pit was not reached.

No wonder she never mentioned the existence of the Pure Vision Agama from beginning to end.

As the guardian of the ghost cave, snake tides hover outside the tomb chamber, and only a few are scattered in the ancient city.

It is precisely because of this.

The moment he discovered the black snake in Gumo Prefecture, he concluded that something was wrong with the Ancient City of Jingjue.

"Okay, I see."

Chen Yulou nodded.

No more words.

Looked into the distance.

Under a broken wall outside the ancient city.

A bonfire was burning brightly on the sand, illuminating countless busy figures.

Each has a clear division of labor.

They set up camp, made a fire and cooked, while the rest of the people collected firewood everywhere.

Water and fire are extremely scarce in the desert.

The situation is still okay along the ancient riverbed of the Peacock River, where dead poplar trees can often be seen. However, away from the riverbed, even the most drought-resistant Haloxylon ammodendron trees are hard to find.

Put away your thoughts.

In her peripheral vision, Una was still immersed in the memories of many years ago.

Chen Yulou couldn't help but sigh secretly.

I don’t know whether to say that the wizards of the Turkic tribe have good luck or bad luck.

Say good luck.

They were able to enter the underground royal city, find the sacred tree, and escape safely.

If you are unlucky, you can cross the underground lake, go forward more than ten meters, walk across the stone bridge, push open the gate, and you will find the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue.

That was a coffin made from a whole Kunlun sacred tree.

Not to mention the magic staff and the Dharma drum, it is more than enough to manufacture a large ship.

but……

If you really want to enter the tomb.

There is a high probability that they will be trapped in the snake tide and die without a burial place.

"Um, Miss Una..."

The atmosphere suddenly fell into silence.

The old foreigner suddenly thought of something.

However, before he could ask a single question, a strange cry suddenly came from the ancient city shrouded in darkness behind him.

"Someone..."

Even though it sounds vague.

But each of those present has special skills.

The five senses are different from those of ordinary people.

In an instant, several people, including Chen Yulou, stood up from the sand, their eyes met in the night sky, and a trace of solemnity flashed across their faces.

They had clearly taken a brief look at it before.

Although I only walked less than halfway.

But there didn't seem to be anyone in the city.

Now that life has suddenly appeared, there is probably only one possibility.

"It's another team!"

The old foreigner frowned, his voice stopped abruptly, and a hint of murderous intent flashed between his brows.

"Manager Chen, Brother, I'll go get him."

"I'll go as well."

Seeing him take off the bow and volunteer, Yang Fang could no longer hold back. He immediately took a step forward and jumped after him.

"Kunlun, you should go over and take a look too."

"It's best to be alive."

"Yes!"

Kunlun nodded heavily.

The shopkeeper specifically asked for a living person, and his intention was self-evident.

The nearly two-meter-tall figure, carrying a halberd on his back, showed no sign of stagnation in the sand dunes. Wherever he passed, the dust and sand exploded.

Following the voice, Chen Yulou looked up.

There was a faint golden light in his eyes.

Not long after.

He saw a figure from afar, stumbling and running wildly out of the ancient city.

Although I couldn't see his appearance clearly, the fear in his body was so strong that it almost overflowed.

Look back from time to time.

It was as if... something was chasing me in the darkness.

However, he had never expected that just after he flipped over the broken wall and rolled to the ground, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he heard a whooshing sound that broke through the air rapidly.

next moment.

An iron arrow, half a man's height, passed by his figure and pierced into the sand dune in front of him.

There was a cold light flashing on the iron arrow.

There was a biting coldness.

The man's face changed drastically and he looked up subconsciously.

Three figures have appeared in front of him.

The oppressive feeling brought by the terrifying aura made him feel almost suffocated.

He couldn't have imagined it.

In this barren land, there are actually other people besides them.

Trying hard to suppress the thunder-like throbbing in his chest, the man's eyes flickered and his right hand sneaked under his robe.

bang——

But his mind.

How could it be possible to hide it from the three Kunlun people?

Just a slight movement, and a cold light exploded in the night sky. He felt as if he was hit by a running camel, and the whole person was thrown off the ground.

He flipped over several times in mid-air.

It hit the ground with a bang.

Although it was sandy, the violent impact still made him curl up in pain, holding his chest with both hands, his face full of pain.

Struggle.

A pistol fell to the ground from under his robe.

Kunlun took a few steps forward, holding the halberd.

He stabbed out with a halberd at random.

The sharp tip of the halberd just touched the man's jaw, and the cold chill almost pierced through his spine and sealed his tendons and veins.

"If you dare to move again."

"die!"

Kunlun looked indifferent, but his words were like thunder.

The man's face froze.

Although I couldn't understand what he said.

But you can guess a thing from the tone.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Kunlun swung the halberd across the ground.

He gently raised the gun and pointed it towards Yang Fang.

The latter took it and looked down.

The style was completely different from the most common mirror-surface box nowadays. There was a line of foreign words engraved on the butt of the gun, which made Yang Fang even more confused.

The only thing that made him feel good was.

The pistol is extremely handy.

Regardless of weight or style.

"Good stuff."

"If you like it, take it."

The old foreigner smiled.

"Then I won't be polite."

After taking off the butt of the gun, there were still a few bullets left. The more Yang Fang looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

Accustomed to using the divine whip.

Try firearms, seems to be good too.

On the other side, the old foreigner took out a rope and tied the guy on the ground with his hands behind his back in a few seconds, then walked back like pulling a horse.

See him taking people away.

Kunlun was in no hurry to leave.

Instead, he looked up into the depths of the ancient city. The guy was running away and looking back, as if he was avoiding something.

but……

Look carefully at this moment.

The ancient city was silent and nothing could be seen.

"What are you looking at?"

After putting away the pistol, Yang Fang saw that he looked thoughtful and glanced at him.

"Did you find anything?"

Kunlun knew that he was born with night vision just like the shopkeeper.

A pair of eyes can see things that ordinary people cannot see.

But when Yang Fang looked around, the ancient city remained the same as before. Apart from the dust and the buried earthen houses, he immediately shook his head.

"I guess I saw it wrong..."

Kunlun nodded and put the halberd back on his back.

Catch up with the old foreigner in front.

When the group of three walked out dozens of meters away, deep in the ancient city, in a half-open dilapidated house, two faint green lights slowly emerged like ghost lights.

He glanced in the direction of several people.

He looked outside the ancient city and saw countless figures busy at work. After hesitating, he retreated.

The dim green light flickers.

It reflects a faint fish-scale-like luster.

"Brother Chen?"

"What are you looking at?"

The moment it disappeared, on the sand dunes outside the city, Partridge Whistle looked around suspiciously.

That moment just now.

He seemed to sense a hint of murderous intent in Chen Yulou.

"nothing……"

Chen Yulou shook his head.

The two flames deep inside the city flashed by for a moment.

But he still captured it keenly.

Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, the huge pupils, the scales... when all these factors came together, a word emerged in his mind.

'Snake Mother'

But, if I remember correctly, the Zagrama clan clearly surrounded and killed the mother snake, so how come another one was born?

While he was hesitating, the old foreigner had already escorted the person over.

Seeing that he still wanted to struggle.

The old foreigner frowned.

He kicked him so hard that he fell to his knees on the sand.

This kick is quite powerful.

The man's whole face was twisted into a knot.

With the help of the surrounding campfires, the group finally got a clear look at his appearance: he had long hair, a bushy beard, a square forehead, and he was wearing a tattered cashmere robe.

I don’t know how long I ran.

I was sweating profusely in the cold winter weather.

So much so that heat was billowing from the dirty ends of his hair.

"It looks like a Uighur."

As soon as he saw his appearance, Chen Yulou knew what he was talking about.

"Miss Una, how about letting you interrogate this man?"
