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

"curse."

"Destiny!"

As a few words came out.

The faces of the group would become even paler.

The tunnel under the Jilei Mountain that I had passed through before was already weird enough, but I didn’t expect this haunted place to be a hundred times worse.

"That is to say, as long as you enter this ghost cave."

"The curse will stay with you for life, just like the Zagrama tribe, passed down from generation to generation... never ending?"

Yang Fang swallowed.

His pupils constricted, as if he had thought of something extremely terrifying, and his expression was filled with indescribable fear.

According to what he heard, the Zagrama clan had existed for at least thousands of years.

But until now, the three brothers and sisters of Partridge Whistle are still busy trying to break the curse.

No wonder he had heard from his master since he was old enough to understand that the Taoist who moved mountains was elusive and never sought money when robbing tombs, but only for the elixir beads.

Now that I think about it.

It's not for any Danzhu.

It's clearly a search for something that can break the curse.

He is only in his twenties.

If the curse cannot be broken, then not only this life... no, his entire lineage, all his generations and descendants will be doomed.

Although Yang Fang has no idea about matters between men and women.

But spreading out and passing on the family tradition are things that are engraved in the flesh and blood and cannot be erased.

If possible, who would be willing to bear such a terrible curse for generations to come?

"Brother Yang Fang, don't worry."

"The reason why Brother Chen and I traveled all the way to the Western Regions is that we have found the item that can break the curse. All we need to do is cut off the connection between the imaginary space and the ancient gods."

"The curse will naturally break on its own!"

It seemed as if he had seen through his thoughts.

Chen Yulou shook his head and smiled, then explained calmly.

The most critical factor for the Snow Demon Kingdom to go down to the ghost cave and take away the Eye of the Serpent God lies in the four words "Boundless Demon Pupil".

Connected imaginary space.

Being able to reach the depths of the ghost cave safely and without being cursed.

And it just so happens that the supreme being of the Demon Kingdom, the Ghost Mother, possesses this seventh eye that transcends the Buddha's eye.

The ancients of the Demon Kingdom used the Demon Pupil to steal the Zhuochen Pearl, and at the same time obtained the supreme power of the Snake God, and built a huge religious regime in Kunlun Mountain.

In addition, the last prophecy left by the prophet of the Zagrama clan.

If you really take it seriously, it's not wrong.

He predicted that eight hundred years after his death, an ancient tribe would return to the Twin Black Mountains.

That is the Ghost Cave Clan.

This tribe was not the demon tribe that really came out of the ground as the legend said, but was divided into two branches after the demise of the Snow Demon Kingdom.

One of them returned to the distant north of Kunlun Mountains, namely Zaglama Mountains.

They called themselves Guidong people and established the ancient kingdom of Jingjue.

Another branch evolved into the Samsara Sect.

The Guge Dynasty was established in Tibet.

In order to restore the glory of the Demon Kingdom, the people of the Samsara Sect even had a crazy idea. They returned to Kunlun Mountain, dug up the nine-story demon tower of the first generation of the Demon Kingdom's ghost mother, and took away the boundless demon pupil.

Make use of the power of the transformation of the environment.

At the edge of the wind-eroded lake, the mirror image of the former capital of the Demon Kingdom, Eluohai City, appeared.

As for the Zagrama clan, and even the curse they were under at the moment, in the final analysis, they were actually marked with a mark, that is, that hideous eyeball, and were destined to become sacrifices to the snake god.

As for why the tribesmen who were cursed by ghosts would have their blood turn golden and solidify once they were over 40 or 50 years old, and eventually die miserably.

It's not just because of the outbreak of the ghost curse.

But as a sacrifice, from the moment of birth, the blood is constantly being devoured by the imaginary space.

The closer you are to the ghost cave, the faster it is swallowed.

The curse will come earlier and earlier.

Therefore, once passing Yumen Pass, the ghost curse that was suppressed by the Tao realm reappeared.

It was because they were getting closer and closer to Mount Zagrama, and the Qi training barrier could not suppress them at all. If they were at the foundation building stage or the Golden Core stage, there might still be a glimmer of hope.

"A curse-breaking thing?"

This was the first time Yang Fang heard of this.

A look of surprise flashed across his face.

"Yes."

Chen Yulou did not hide anything and nodded, "Once we get to the underground, everything will be revealed."

Although the Zhuchen Pearl spans thousands of years.

Its traces have always existed in the dust of history.

But for ordinary people, it is still too secretive and there is no way of knowing it.

Therefore, even if he revealed the name now, it would only bring him more doubts. It would be better to wait until he saw the remains of the Snake God. It would not be too late to tell him then.

"it is good."

Hear the hidden meaning in his words.

Yang Fang nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

Now they are still on the cliff of a thousand-meter cave, shaky and treading on thin ice. Instead of asking too many questions, it is better to think carefully about how to deal with the danger that may occur at any time.

"So... we don't need to worry about the mark?"

As he was pondering, he suddenly saw Kunlun putting on his robe again out of the corner of his eye.

The scene I just saw suddenly appeared in my mind.

It looked like it had grown out of flesh and blood, and was hideous and terrifying. Just thinking about it made him feel itchy all over, and he couldn't help but want to grab it hard.

But I was also worried that if I scratched it, the eyeball would really pop out.

"Just stop imagining things, kid."

Seeing his hesitation, Old Yang knew what he was thinking. He patted him on the shoulder and laughed.

"To be honest, that thing has been with me for more than 20 years. When I was young, I didn't know much, and I was afraid that it would eat me one day, so I cut it with a knife, burned it with fire, and even made my own medicine."

“We have tried every possible means.”

“But after all these years, it’s still the same.”

Listen to him talk about interesting childhood stories.

Yang Fang's last bit of worry also completely disappeared.

Since Manager Chen said it was fate and no one could escape it, I guess it was the same for all five people on this trip.

But Chen Yulou, listening to him talking about his actions with a self-deprecating look on his face, felt as if a bottle of seasoning had been overturned in his heart, with mixed feelings and an indescribable sadness.

Put yourself in the shoes and think about it.

If it were him.

From the moment I was born and became sensible, I was told that I would not live past forty or fifty.

The ghost curse will accompany you for life.

For thousands of years, no one has been able to escape.

Can you imagine how desperate it is?

"Let's go."

He sighed secretly.

Chen Yulou suppressed his emotions and greeted a few people.

"it is good."

The response spread all around.

It was soon replaced by the sound of footsteps.

The group continued to go down, going back and forth along the spiral staircase.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yulou, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, and the old foreigner following closely behind him almost bumped into him.

Fortunately, the response was timely.

He subconsciously tightened his grip on the Jiaoshe bow and glanced around cautiously.

"Shopkeeper Chen?"

"arrive!"

Different from his doubts, confusion and caution.

At this moment, Chen Yulou couldn't help but let out a long breath, and a smile appeared between his eyebrows.

Been walking for so long.

Finally arrived at the destination.

Glancing at the oil lamp in the wind lantern, the wick was almost burned out, with a tiny flame flickering and looking like it would go out at any moment.

The people behind him also looked tired.

Walking on an ancient plank road that is thousands of years old.

It is a great test for everyone, a double torture from both mental and physical aspects.

Fortunately, except for the accident on the way, we didn't encounter any danger along the way.

Especially the black snakes that can be seen everywhere in the ancient city and underground.

But here it seems to have disappeared.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be expected. After all, the purpose of their existence is to protect the ghost cave.

Now they have all entered it.

Naturally you won’t see it.

In addition, I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been running for too long and the blood and qi have dispelled the cold, or if the temperature at the bottom of the cave is naturally higher than outside, but the feeling of a chilly wind piercing my bones when I came down disappeared at some point.

"arrive?"

Hear this.

Several exclamations were heard in succession, and the excitement could not be concealed at all.

However, after a brief moment of excitement, there was subconscious uneasiness and caution.

They haven't forgotten.

Deep in the ghost cave... there is an ancient god hiding.

According to Chen Yulou's explanation before, all things in the world, evil spirits, demons and monsters, are just born after birth, even wild gods are the same.

But the ancient gods almost coexisted with heaven and earth.

In its eyes, all living beings in the world are ants.

Now, they have to kill the gods with their flesh and blood.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't excited.

But it can't overcome the fear of the unknown.

It took a lot of effort just to get into its nest.

They really couldn't imagine what kind of existence the ancient gods were, whether they were real or imaginary, human or ghost, or maybe they were just like the Eternal Heaven believed in by Tibetans, who were invisible and indescribable.

but.

Although I feel uneasy.

But they are all veterans.

I know that the more dangerous the situation is, the more I need to stay calm.

Without hesitation, he quickly walked down the plank road, formed the Five Elements Formation, raised the wind lantern in his hand, and looked around with eyes as sharp as knives.

The flames gathered.

Dispel the darkness bit by bit.

The situation at the bottom of the cave slowly emerged from the fog and appeared in the group's sight.

This is a cave that is nearly a hundred meters in radius.

There are bones everywhere.

It looks like there are both old and young people.

Most of the bones were abnormally bent or even broken, and it was obvious that they had been pushed down from a high place.

"Are they slaves who are offering sacrifices to the ancient gods?"

The old foreigner's scalp tingled and he subconsciously suppressed his breathing and spoke in a low voice.

It was not difficult to guess from the ancient altar they passed on their way down.

Those who worship the ancient gods.

In order to consolidate rule and gain power, sacrificial ceremonies are held at regular intervals.

The sacrifices are these people.

At a glance, white bones almost covered the entire bottom of the cave. There were at least thousands or even tens of thousands of them. The thick black fog and earth energy could not conceal the deadly aura that shrouded it.

It seemed that with every breath, the ancient blood would fill their chests.

It's suffocating.

It is no wonder that when Prince Gumo raised his arm and called for help, countless people responded, and in a short period of time, an extremely large coalition army was formed.

They all suspected the real purpose of the Jingjue people to unify the thirty-six kingdoms in the Western Regions.

In fact, it is to obtain slaves for blood sacrifice from various countries in a steady stream.

Otherwise, it is hard to imagine how long it would take to find so much blood food.

"Look around."

"See if there are any other discoveries."

Chen Yulou secretly let out a breath and suppressed the discomfort in his heart.

Since he took over the Chen family when he was in his teens, he has overturned countless battles and has seen an unimaginable number of dead bodies.

But even so.

Being in the Mountain of Bones, he felt an indescribable discomfort, with depression and difficulty breathing.

"it is good."

"It's from the shopkeeper."

His words immediately woke everyone up from their trance.

While responding, he held the lantern and walked around.

Try to avoid those white bones as much as possible, but no matter how careful you are, you will inevitably be careless. If you touch them, the bones will instantly turn into a pile of powder.

I don’t know how many years have passed.

In addition to human bones, you can also see the skeletons of various animals from time to time.

The group of people went from the outside to the center of the cave.

Suddenly.

Partridge Whistle had no idea what he had discovered, and his whole body froze on the spot. He had been wandering around the world for twenty to thirty years and had seen countless things, but at this moment, his face was actually pale with a sickly look.

If you look carefully.

You will find out.

The thin body wrapped in a robe was trembling slightly at this moment.

The amplitude was very small, probably because he was trying hard to suppress it, but the bulging blue veins on his forehead could not be faked.

That would only happen when one was in a state of extreme fear.

"Senior brother?"

The old foreigner noticed something was wrong and his face became anxious.

He quickly took off the dragon-shooting bow, put two long arrows on the dragon-tendon strings, and quickly approached Partridge Whistle.

"do not come."

Noticed the actions of the junior brother.

Partridge Whistle seemed to finally come to his senses. He turned around with difficulty and shook his head vigorously.

There was cold sweat on his forehead.

It seems to be such a simple action.

It exhausted all his strength.

"Wha...what?"

The old foreigner, who was still running, stopped in his tracks when he saw this.

His eyes widened with a look of disbelief.

He had no idea what his senior brother had been through to become like this.

However, no matter how he looked at this moment, there was no difference at all around his senior brother. There were only unchanging white bones and black fog so thick that it seemed as if he could scoop it up with one hand.

It's not just him.

Kunlun and Yang Fang, who were not far away from each other, were also confused and looked as if they had seen a ghost.

"It's a transformation of realm!"

"Old foreigner, come back!"

at last.

A familiar voice came.

Chen Yulou held the lantern, pursed his lips, frowned, and the coldness in his eyes almost overflowed.

"The realm changes?"

"what is this?"

Hearing this unfamiliar word.

The three of them couldn't help but look at each other.

"Illusion." Chen Yulou said concisely, "It's the corpse-scented konjac and the ancient cave stone box."

"Understood?"

This is the most terrifying ability of the snake god.

The interweaving of truth and falsehood, reality and illusion, yin and yang, makes time, space and even life and death no longer illusory.

As long as the soul is immortal.

The Snake God can use the transformation of his realm at any time and be reborn at the end of heaven, earth and time, just like the legendary phoenix nirvana.

This is why it has been rumored throughout the ages that the Zhuochen Pearl is a miraculous object that can enable one to ascend to immortality and become a god.

Because the Zhuchen Pearl controls everything.

This is the information King Wen of Zhou naturally obtained when he deduced from the Eight Trigrams.

"That is to say..."

The old foreigner understood immediately.

"Brother, he is trapped in an illusion."

Chen Yulou nodded without further explanation. Instead, he looked at where Partridge Whistle was from a few steps away with a pair of night eyes filled with golden light.

It can make him fall into an inescapable situation silently.

There is only one possibility.

The remains of the snake god should be just ahead.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

From this moment on.

The real fight with the snake god began.

Thoughts flashed through my mind like a movie scene.

After a long time, Chen Yulou finally let out a breath, looked at the tall figure not far away from him, and shouted in a deep voice.

"Kunlun, wrapped in wind and cloud!"
