C46 (2/2)
The two of them, one in front and one behind, quietly walked to the entrance of the Ancient Emperor's tomb. The moment they arrived at the entrance, the two of them felt a wave of cold air blowing towards them.
and Yue Yang were already prepared for this. Each of them took out a piece of cloth and covered their faces to prevent any accidents while smelling the rotten stench for a long time.
After entering the cave, the two of them slowed down a lot. Their path was very dark, so their line of sight was greatly affected.
After walking forward for around twenty to thirty meters, Li Mu discovered that they were walking underground. This passage had a slope, and actually went straight into the ground.
After walking about two or three hundred meters forward, the situation in front of Li Mu's eyes changed.
This was an extremely large underground stone chamber. It was different from the pitch-black passageway that they had walked through before. Many fist-sized Night Pearls were embedded into the walls of the stone chamber.
The Night Pearls were emitting the soft and weak Huaguang. Due to the fact that there were many of them, the entire stone room did not seem dark.
Other than the stone room connecting to the passage where Li Mu and Yue Yang had entered, there were also five other entrances on the other side that led to unknown destinations, which seemed to be a transition point at a fork in the road.
”Wah!” So many Night Pearls, how much silver is this worth! ”
Looking at the large amount of Night Pearls embedded on the wall, even though Young Master Yun had a rich family background, he still swallowed his saliva.
”This is the Emperor Tomb after all, otherwise it wouldn't be so extravagant. Young master, don't be so hasty with your saliva. There are five paths here, which one should we take first?”
Looking at the five tunnels in front of him, Li Mu had a hard time making a decision.
”I can't make a judgment on that, but I remember my grandfather saying before that he didn't know how to walk either, so he walked all the way to the left. In the end, he met the Ancient Emperor's corpse not too far away and was injured by it.”
Young Master Yun looked at all five tunnels before turning to the one on the far left.
”Since that's the case, then let's follow your ancestor's direction. Meeting a Ancient Emperor's corpse means that the general direction is correct!”
After giving it a little thought, Li Mu did the same as Young Master Yun, he set his gaze on the passage to the far left.
After agreeing, Li Mu and did not linger either. They slowed down their pace and walked towards the passage to the left.
The walls of the passageway were inlaid with Night Pearls at intervals. Although it was not as inlaid as before, it still illuminated the rugged passage.
Li Mu and Yue Shan quietly moved forward, the further they went, the more nervous the two of them became. After all, they were in a place where demon corpses would gather, and it was possible for two demon corpses to jump out at any time.
The passageway was extremely rugged, and seemed to not have been specially prepared, as though it had been hastily carved. If not for the Night Pearl embedded on the wall and the faint traces of excavation on the wall, Li Mu would have thought it was naturally formed.
”Brother Li, something's wrong!”
Suddenly, Young Master Yun stopped Li Mu with a serious face. Not far ahead, a voice could be heard.
Li Mu's senses were not bad, so he naturally heard the voice from the front. He quietly pulled out the partridge and prepared himself.
”Boom!”
”Roar …!”
Suddenly, an explosive sound came out without any warning, followed by the miserable shrieks of the demon corpse, Li Mu and Yue Yang looked at each other, the sound was obviously made by someone fighting.
”What's going on? Could it be that someone else is here?”
A strange thought appeared in Li Mu's mind. Before he came here, he had considered all kinds of situations, but the only thing he did not expect was that there would be other people present.
”Bang!” ”BOOM!”
All sorts of violent exploding sounds were emitted continuously, and Li Mu was even more certain that a huge battle had erupted not too far in front of them.
Young Master Yun suggested, ”Should we go up and take a look? This battle has been very strange. With such a big commotion, it must not have been caused by some random person. Perhaps it was the Ancient Emperor's corpse?”
What Young Master Yun said made sense. Once he thought about how Ren Xiaoyao was still lying on the bed waiting for him to save him, he clenched his teeth despite the danger, and nodded.
Li Mu held onto the partridge, and the two of them, one in front and one behind, walked with full vigilance. They had only walked forward less than twenty meters when a huge stone room appeared in front of them.
Impressively, there was a huge battle between the human corpses. Li Mu could see clearly that the six men and women were using their own methods to fight against the more than twenty demon corpses. Amongst them, there were more than three red-haired demon corpses.
