The blind old man had finally arrived after waiting for so long. It was rumored that there were many treasures, spirit herbs, and immortal herbs in the Immortal Tomb. Any one of them would be priceless.
The blind old man had seven disciples, and there were three Epic-ranked experts who were unwilling to give up such an opportunity.
If they entered the tomb with a Legendary creature, their chances of survival would increase greatly. How could they miss such an opportunity? Besides, Wei Huo had already told them that he would leave after the tomb was explored.
The Epic-ranked creatures were elated. If Wei Huo left, wouldn’t they have the final say?
Apart from the eleven of them, Wei Huo also chose 72 Rare-ranked creatures. He had asked them to set up the Human-Slaughtering Array. The name of the Human-Slaughtering Array was not pleasant to the ears, so Wei Huo changed its name to Immortal-Trapping Array.
Over the past five years, Wei Huo had improved the Immortal-Trapping Array. It could shoot out freezing beams and freeze trapped creatures. Its lethality was much weaker than the Human-Slaughtering Array’s lethality, but its ability to trap people was at least three times stronger!
That day, Wei Huo arrived at the tomb’s entrance. He took out the Ruyi Pagoda and spent three hours collecting the Mystic Ice Domain’s power.
The blind old man praised him. “Congratulations on becoming stronger!”
The group of Naga started sucking up to him. “Since the King has personally taken action, the Immortal Tomb will definitely be easy to explore. There’s no need to worry.”
Wei Huo was speechless.
Why did those words sound so familiar?
The blind old man said, “Your Majesty is extremely powerful. The treasures and immortal pills in the Immortal Tomb are easy to obtain. We would like to congratulate you on your success in advance.”
Wei Huo was speechless. What were these people doing?
Wei Huo thought of a classic work of literature about robbing an Immortal Tomb. Every time someone important led a team into the tomb, someone would praise them. However, they would all be destroyed in less than 15 minutes. Every time the main character was forced into the tomb, he would obtain good things and survive.
Wei Huo interrupted them. “In my opinion, this tomb is not simple. Everyone be careful. Let’s go in.”
The blind old man nodded. “Let’s not miss this auspicious day. Enter the tomb quickly. You two, open the tomb quickly!”
The Naga mumbled silently. How could a tomb raid be described as an auspicious day?
In one particular month and day, setting off on a tomb-raiding expedition would be beneficial.
The blind old man’s two disciples mumbled to themselves as they opened the bronze gate.
Hu! Hu! Hu!
A fragrance blew out of the door. As everyone smelled it, the blind old man’s expression changed. “This is not good. Quickly, cover your mouths and noses!”
His two disciples covered their mouths and noses and knelt on the ground. Meanwhile, they thought to themselves, We’re doomed!
All the Naga were shocked. Were they going to lose people before even entering the tomb?
Wei Huo took a big step forward. “Follow me!”
Although there was a fragrance in the wind, it was not poisonous. It even felt a little refreshing. Not only did he not feel dizzy after smelling it, but he even felt that his head was particularly clear.
Many people were confused. Was this a tomb?
Behind the bronze gate was a tunnel. A white light was emitted from its front, and it was emitting a faint heat as if it had arrived on the surface.
