"Boss, these ghost hands are too low-level. The Princess said she has higher-level ones and asked if you want to see them."
Fatty said excitedly when he saw Zhang Tian and the others approaching, as if it were an honor.
Zhang Tian was speechless. "Alright, not interested. You go ahead, we'll follow you."
As Zhang Tian spoke, Fatty waved his hand and walked in front, looking excited.
This was Fatty's first time receiving attention.
How could he not be excited? Being the core of the team felt so good.
"Fatty likes this feeling!"
Feeling pleased, Fatty walked further ahead.
"Old Hu, Qilin, cover your ears."
Zhang Tian said, and the two covered their ears.
Then, Zhang Tian took out the small bell and began to shake it.
The next moment, Fatty, who had been moving forward, suddenly slowed down.
"Huh, why can't Fatty move?"
His heart sank, Fatty suddenly looked down at his feet, and a shiver ran down his spine when he saw what was beneath him.
He saw hands reaching out from within.
Those hands flailed wildly around Fatty, some even grabbing his ankles.
Seeing this, Fatty kicked the ground and quickly looked behind him.
But Zhang Tian and the others were nowhere to be seen. It was empty, and the ghost hands on the walls began to loosen.
The next moment, red blood began to seep from the walls, and gradually, people crawled out from within.
"Damn, ghosts, we've encountered ghosts!"
Fatty's heart trembled, and he shouted, punching a figure that was emerging.
The figure that Fatty punched turned into dust.
Seeing that his fist had an effect, Fatty furiously smashed the walls with his fists.
His hands were bleeding, but Fatty dared not stop.
As more and more people emerged, Fatty became even more desperate.
He not only used his fists but also smashed his head against the wall.
Meanwhile, outside, Zhang Tian and the others couldn't help but laugh as they watched Fatty.
Fatty was currently punching the wall, and his head had even made a large pit in it.
"Boss, is this useful? We're about to destroy the death gate."
Hu Bayi asked doubtfully, looking at the numerous pits Fatty had smashed.
"Don't rush, look there."
As Zhang Tian spoke, a soldier-like figure darted out from the depths of the tomb.
It should be a亡灵 guard of the tomb passage.
"What is that?"
Hu Bayi was stunned.
"The亡魂 who died in the tomb."
Zhang Qilin said calmly.
It was a good opportunity for Fatty to practice.
With the illusion buff, Fatty was even fiercer.
As the ghost soldier approached, Fatty charged directly at it.
He was more excited than if he had taken stimulants.
Soon, Fatty and the figure engaged in a physical fight.
Fatty was constantly scratched, but due to his technique, he was also continuously strengthening.
After about five minutes, when Zhang Tian felt it was enough, he took out his peach wood sword.
He drew a fire talisman, and all the Yin spirits around disappeared.
Fatty also returned to normal.
"Huh, what the hell, boss, you guys are still alive?"
"I clearly saw your heads and bodies were gone."
Fatty looked at Zhang Tian and the others standing behind him, surprised.
"You were hallucinating. Also, stop cursing us to death every day, alright?"
Zhang Tian slapped Fatty on the head.
Fatty rubbed his head and smiled.
Suddenly, his smile stopped.
"Wait, boss, it doesn't hurt! Damn, it doesn't hurt!"
"Boss, hit me again quickly."
Fatty said with a sly grin.
Zhang Tian, having never heard such an shameless request, naturally obliged.
He then kicked Fatty.
Fatty flew back five meters.
"Damn, it doesn't hurt! Boss, Fatty's technique has reached the fourth level, damn it!"
"Fatty is back on his feet, Fatty feels stronger now!"
Fatty was so excited he almost jumped up.
Zhang Tian took a deep breath, realizing this guy didn't understand how to train a physical technique at all!
No wonder he was so weak.
"Alright, let's get out of here quickly."
Since Fatty's technique had broken through, Zhang Tian was no longer interested in staying. They quickened their pace.
Unlike Wu Sansheng, Zhang Tian and the others exited the death gate much faster.
And they were not injured at all.
Except for Fatty, of course.
After passing through the death gate, they entered a huge space.
It was brightly lit, and this space was filled with carvings, jade artifacts, and even gold and jewelry.
In the most conspicuous place, there was a model.
Above the model, a shriveled old man was seated.
Above him was a circular roof, illuminated by special minerals, and even flames were burning in this tomb.
It was likely a combustible material made from some kind of substance.
"What a big room, and so much jewelry, could this be the final tomb?"
Fatty was completely excited upon seeing this.
It was more luxurious than any decoration he had seen elsewhere.
The Prince's tomb and the Lu King's palace were definitely not as luxurious as this.
"Is that Wang Canghai above?"
Hu Bayi looked at the shriveled skeleton sitting above, with many jewels adorning it.
"I don't know, we'll know when we go take a look."
As Zhang Tian spoke, he turned to see that Zhang Qilin was already standing in front of the models.
"I feel a sense of familiarity with this place."
Zhang Qilin said slowly, looking at the models.
"When we have a chance, we'll come here to help you regain your memories."
Zhang Tian said, and Zhang Qilin nodded.
"Thank you."
He said the two words.
"No need, we're all family."
Zhang Tian waved his hand and then patted Hu Bayi's shoulder. The two smiled at each other.
"Boss, winter is coming soon. After we get out, let's go check out the Northeast. I heard there are many big tombs there too."
Hu Bayi said, and Zhang Tian nodded.
"Sure, we can go take a look then. I heard there are many folk legends in the Northeast, so it'll be good to check them out, and we might even meet some Taoist priests."
As Zhang Tian spoke, everyone seemed to have found a new direction to pursue.
However, after speaking, Zhang Tian's gaze fell on an object not far away.
Besides the model, the most striking item was the jade pendant hanging on the shriveled corpse on the altar.
"There are three jade pendants hanging there. I wonder what they record."
Zhang Tian murmured, his heart beating fast.
Ever since he learned that jade pendants were not easily found, Zhang Tian had paid more attention to them.
He looked at the surrounding layout.
Above, there were ornate, wave-like decorations, and behind these decorations, there should be space.
And on the altar, there was a golden chair. From the altar, one could overlook the entire tomb, and the layout of the entire Cloud Top Heavenly Palace was in full view.
Around it, four red pillars supported the entire tomb.
It was designed to be extremely ingenious and magnificent.
In the four directions, east, west, north, and south, there were also corresponding statues. Zhang Tian was unsure if there were any mechanisms inside.
After surveying the surroundings, Zhang Tian looked at the others.
"Be careful, don't touch anything yet. Let's figure out the surrounding layout first. Old Hu, Qilin, you two go find a way out, an exit from the tomb, just in case."
As Zhang Tian spoke, Hu Bayi nodded, and the two of them began to search for an exit from the tomb, just in case anything unexpected happened.
As for Lin Tian, he focused his gaze on the shriveled skeleton. He knew in his heart that this was not Wang Canghai!
