Chapter 35 Tian Di Mausoleum

The setting sun cast its last rays on the ground.

As darkness fell, Mr. Mo finally reappeared.

He was accompanied by nearly fifty or sixty villagers from Little Almond Village, mostly young and strong men.

Mr. Mo ordered Gu San to be untied and handed him a soul-seizing bell and a gong, saying coldly, "Lead those nine corpses and follow us. If you try anything, your fellow disciples will die."

Gu San looked grim. He glanced at Gu Yuan, who was also signaling him to play it by ear.

"Leading the corpses is no problem, but I need my senior brother Gu Xiuxuan to help me!" Gu San said.

"Impossible!" Mr. Mo refused directly.

"Corpse driving requires two people to cooperate, one in front and one behind. This time, we have to drive nine corpses at once. If you don't release him, I won't be able to do anything," Gu San said, spreading his hands.

Seeing Mr. Mo remain silent, Gu San spoke again.

"Since my senior brother is out of the question, then you can release my senior brother's apprentice to assist me, right?" Gu San pointed to Jin Tao.

Mr. Mo pondered for a while before nodding.

"Don't worry, I won't take your lives. As long as you cooperate well after you go up the mountain, I will let you go after it's done."

Hearing Mr. Mo's words, a subtle glint flashed in Gu San's eyes.

A mighty group of fifty or sixty people surrounded Qiao Yu and the others, forming a corpse team, and headed towards Spirit Burial Mountain.

The black cloth on the other six corpses was also torn off. Yang Xiangdi's previous guess was correct. The other six were the others who had entered the dungeon.

Gu Su and Shi Shaorong, two faces familiar to Qiao Yu, were among them. Gu Su's body was also nailed with five corpse-suppressing nails as thick as infants' arms.

They were nailed into his forehead and limbs.

They were also surprised to see Qiao Yu.

"Yo? Isn't this Gu Su? What happened to you these past few days?" Yang Xiangdi raised an eyebrow.

Gu Su's corpse trembled with anger, but he couldn't move at all because he was suppressed by the corpse-suppressing nails. Even speaking was a luxury.

Qiao Yu felt fortunate. If he had caused trouble during the day, he would probably be nailed up like Gu Su now, right?

"Eh? Strange, where's Ma Fei?" Zuo You asked softly.

Qiao Yu looked at them one by one and found that Ma Fei was indeed missing from the group of nine.

Could it be that Ma Fei hadn't turned into a corpse?

Soon, Qiao Yu and the others arrived at the small hill where the Dian Yin was held last night.

But Mr. Mo and the others didn't stop, and continued to walk towards Spirit Burial Mountain!

As they climbed higher and higher, the original forest gradually disappeared, replaced by large areas of exposed rock walls and boulders.

The moonlight shone on the rocks, reflecting a white light.

Without professional tools, it would be impossible to climb such cliffs.

Mr. Mo and the others didn't consider rock climbing. After ordering people to move away a boulder, he revealed a narrow tunnel.

There were steps on the tunnel, sloping upwards, obviously a small path leading up the mountain.

What was chilling was that a toad the size of a fist was actually standing in the middle of the tunnel!

The toad seemed to have human nature, squatting in the tunnel and staring straight at them.

Mr. Mo frowned slightly. This strange scene puzzled him.

He had led people to open up this tunnel. Why would there be a toad blocking the way?

"Go, drive that toad away," Mr. Mo ordered a villager.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the villager took a step forward, the toad croaked and jumped into the shadows and disappeared.

The team continued to move forward, and Mr. Mo became more cautious.

After passing through the tunnel, a mountain peak appeared in front of everyone. This mountain peak was higher than the other mountain peaks, and it vaguely felt like it was being embraced by the other mountain peaks.

Whether it was an illusion or not, Qiao Yu felt that all the moonlight was concentrated on that mountain peak.

"We're here!"

After an unknown amount of time, Mr. Mo's voice sounded again.

Qiao Yu and the others didn't feel tired after turning into corpses, but many of the villagers were so tired that they collapsed on the ground.

The landing place was an open space with a wide view, and there were guardrails around the edges.

Obviously, this was an artificial open space. Directly in front of the open space was a recessed cave.

Two huge stone doors were embedded in the rock wall of the cave, with three large characters engraved on them like gold hooks and silver strokes.

Tian Di Ling (Mausoleum of the Heavenly Emperor).

Mr. Mo walked forward and gently pressed the door.

The seemingly heavy stone door made a muffled sound, and then slowly opened.

The dark cave entrance in the dark night was like the open mouth of a beast.

Gu San and his fellow disciples looked at each other, their eyes full of panic.

This imperial mausoleum could actually be opened directly from the outside?

Wouldn't the designer who designed this kind of imperial mausoleum be subjected to the emperor's wrath?

Mr. Mo raised his hands high and chanted words.

Then the villagers behind him held up suonas and began to play.

Unlike the bright sound of the Dian Yin, this time the suona carried a strange tune, tactful, desolate, and chilling.

"Dong!"

Mr. Mo knelt straight on the ground, the force of which made Qiao Yu's eyelids twitch.

Mr. Mo shouted loudly, his voice becoming sharp and piercing, like a eunuch announcing an imperial decree.

"Millennial period, the Supreme of the Ninety-Fifth."

"Yin corpses have arrived, Heavenly Emperor takes notice."

"Using Yin corpses as a medium, and human blood as a sacrifice, respectfully welcome the Heavenly Emperor to rule the world!"

Mr. Mo heavily knocked his head on the stone ground, and the villagers playing the suona became even more energetic.

The moment his head hit the ground, a series of da-da-da footsteps suddenly came from the opened Tian Di Mausoleum.

"Do it!"

Seeing this, Gu Yuan couldn't bear it any longer and jumped up directly.

Who knew what would come out of the footsteps coming from the mausoleum?

To Gu Yuan's surprise, Mr. Mo still maintained his kowtowing posture, and the other villagers looked indifferent.

No one paid attention to him at all.

"Run!"

Seeing this, Gu San grabbed Jin Tao and turned around to run away.

However, when they turned their heads, they realized that the way they had come had long disappeared.

No wonder Mr. Mo and the others didn't pay attention to them at all.

As the da-da-da footsteps got closer and closer, dozens of "people" walked out of the imperial mausoleum.

Each of them had a cyan complexion, closed eyes, and wore clothes that were obviously not in line with this era.

After walking out of the imperial mausoleum and coming into contact with the moonlight, these people instantly opened their eyes!

Black or red fluff began to grow on their bodies.

These were actually dozens of blood demons and black demons!

"Hiss!"

Gu Yuan and his fellow disciples instantly gasped.

Now, let alone stopping the people of Little Almond Village, Gu Yuan felt that it was their fellow disciples' hard fate to be able to leave alive.

"Roar!"

The awakened demon corpses let out a roar, but the first ones they attacked were not Gu Yuan and the others, but the villagers of Little Almond Village!

What horrified Gu Yuan and the others even more was that the villagers of Little Almond Village didn't dodge or avoid, letting the demon corpses bite them, and even continued to play the suona.

The sound of the suona seemed even more terrifying in this eerie scene.

Cold sweat dripped from Gu Yuan's foreheads.

Could it be that the people of Little Almond Village were really a bunch of lunatics?

At the same time, several blood demon corpses rushed towards Qiao Yu and the others, carrying Qiao Yu on their shoulders and entering the imperial mausoleum.

As Qiao Yu and the other nine disappeared into the depths of the imperial mausoleum.

Mr. Mo, who had been kowtowing all along, raised his head, his eyes full of fanaticism!

"These nine Yin corpses have also entered the imperial mausoleum, the master can finally be resurrected!"

No one noticed that a small toad was quietly watching all of this not far away…
