There was no reason why a few people were not frightened. They were coming to an unknown place this time, and any unknown place was an existence that countless people were fascinated by. Once word spread, it would attract experts from all over the world to flock here.
Wu Liang glanced at several people with a strange look on his face, as if he didn't understand why they had such a big reaction: "There are many burial objects in the imperial mausoleum, and they are all extremely precious. What are they if they are not treasures?"
Everyone: "..."
Zu An didn't know whether he was telling the truth or pretending to be stupid, but he didn't have time to think about it so much now and took him directly to another road.
The map previously obtained at Suihou's Tomb only roughly showed that the unknown place was in the imperial mausoleum. The specific location was not marked.
In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that this map has probably existed longer than the imperial tomb of the demon clan. There was no imperial tomb at that time, so now that the surrounding terrain has changed, the map has naturally lost its meaning. They can only find it themselves.
Along the way, several people searched around to see if there was anything special.
Wu Liang, on the other hand, was like a fish in water, and plundered the funerary objects in the ear room of the imperial mausoleum.
Most of them are gold and jade jewelry, and there are also some treasures made of high-grade primeval stones.
Seeing his greedy appearance, Zu An and others couldn't help but secretly sigh that they were worrying too much.
Yan Xuehen is proficient in the knowledge of formation runes. She has been investigating everywhere. Unfortunately, although she found some hidden mechanisms, they had nothing to do with the unknown place.
Soon, a group of people suddenly felt their eyes light up, and the space in front suddenly became cheerful.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little lost. At that moment, they thought they had left the imperial mausoleum.
Because there are sun, moon, stars, rivers, lakes and seas in front of me.
"This is..." Yun Jianyue opened her mouth in surprise.
Yu Yanluo was shocked and explained: "This is a miniature version of the world's mountains and rivers."
She is good at painting, and her magic weapon is the "Thousand Miles of Mountains and Seas". She is very familiar with the mountains and rivers of the world, so she can recognize them at a glance.
"And it's still the territory of the demon clan's heyday," Yun Jianyue sneered, "Now most of this vast territory has been taken over by the human race, and the demon clan is still living in a dream."
Wu Liang looked at him with a strange expression: "Is the girl a human or a demon? This position is a bit incorrect."
Yun Jianyue glanced at him coldly, Wu Liang shuddered all over and did not dare to ask again.
Zu An couldn't help but be filled with emotion. He had seen the sun, moon, star city, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas in Qin Shihuang's mausoleum in the history books, but he didn't expect to see it in the imperial mausoleum of the Monster Clan today.
At this time, Wu Liang looked at the sun, moon and stars in the sky with a look of excitement on his face: "These are at least the Heavenly Grade Yuan Stone Grade, maybe even the Immortal Grade, and they are so big. Hey, if you pick them off, you will be rich."
Yan Xuehen said coldly: "These are made to look like the sun, moon and stars, and are surrounded by dense arrays. If they are forcibly removed, it will definitely trigger an alarm in the imperial mausoleum, and no one will be able to survive by then."
"I know, I know, why don't you just tell me?" Wu Liang was a little depressed, with a look of heartache as if he had been to the treasure mountain but couldn't get there.
"There is a big lake here." Yu Yanluo exclaimed, "Hey, it's still living water!"
Generally speaking, in order to keep the lakes and rivers in the mausoleum long-lasting, they are usually replaced with mercury or the like. This will not only prevent decay for thousands of years, but also release poisonous gas to protect the mausoleum.
Several other people were also a little surprised and ran to check, and it turned out to be real water.
"I understand, the mausoleum is about hiding wind and gathering water, so water is very important, but ordinary people can't be as courageous as the Demon Emperor to find an endless water source on such a scale," Wu Liang explained, "The Golden Crow Royal Family belongs to fire, so it can be said that It is the most rigid and the most yang. As the saying goes, the yin cannot grow without the yang, and the yin and yang must be reconciled. This water vein is used to mediate the yin and yang of the imperial mausoleum. Tsk tsk tsk, the person who designed this imperial mausoleum must be a genius... …”
Wu Liang kept talking, and the people in Zuan were impressed. This guy really had some skills. The Chuanshan clan was truly an expert among experts when it came to tomb robbing.
Yun Jianyue came close to Zu An and whispered: "Xiao Anzi, do you think that unknown place is hidden in this lake?"
Zu An nodded: "I also have this guess. Let's do this. I'll go down and take a look. Pay attention to Wu Liang."
He has the skills of a bluebird and is naturally close to water, making him the most suitable person to go into the water.
"Don't worry, I'm just a fat Taoist priest, why can't I ignore him." Yun Jianyue snorted, "You should be careful underwater."
Zu An originally wanted to remind her that there was something unusual about Wu Liang, but thinking of her status as a grand master, he felt that he was worried too much.
Soon he jumped directly into the water and searched the bottom of the lake.
The other three women were waiting on the shore. Yun Jianyue didn't care on the surface, but in fact she was quietly monitoring Wu Liang, but the other party was very honest and didn't make the slightest move.
After a while of burning incense, there was a ripple on the water surface, and then Zu An burst out of the water.
"How is it?" the three women asked hurriedly.
Zu An shook his head: "I searched all over it just now, and even checked the bottom of the lake. There is no secret door or passage."
"What are you looking for?" Wu Liang asked curiously.
"It's none of your business." Yun Jianyue glared at him.
Wu Liang chuckled, looking like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.
"Where will it be? We have searched most of the imperial mausoleum just now." Yun Jianyue frowned.
At this time, Wu Liang next to him said quietly: "Although I don't know what you are looking for, there is still a place in the imperial mausoleum that you have not looked for."
The hearts of Zu An and others moved. The only thing left was the place where the Golden Crow Crown Prince went to undergo the test of the heroic spirit of the Demon King of all generations. Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, they would eventually have to face the situation they least wanted to face.
At this time, Wu Liang said again: "As far as I know, the prince should be in the imperial mausoleum hall, where there is a statue of the demon ancestor. The so-called trial of demon emperors in the past is actually just a gimmick."
Zu An looked strange: "Do you even know such a confidential thing?"
Wu Liang chuckled and said, "We are in the business of going to graves, so we know more secrets than ordinary people."
Zu An discussed it with the three women and finally decided to go to the main hall to have a look.
On the way, Zu An thought, was it destiny that he had to help the Little Demon Queen?
The few people moved quickly, and along the way there were two masters, Wu Liang and Yan Xuehen, who were proficient in tomb robbing mechanisms and rune formations, so many dangers were eliminated in advance.
It didn't take long before we came to the corner of a corridor, and the bright firelight from the front shone in.
Wu Liang whispered: "Ahead is the underground palace hall."
Zu An nodded and leaned over calmly.
I saw an extremely grand hall inside, and the most eye-catching thing was the dark statue dozens of meters high.
It looked like a human but not a human, like an animal but not an animal. It had the body of a bird and the head of a bird, its hands were like sharp claws, and there was a pair of dark wings on its back, as if it was about to fly.
The sharp beak and the special pupils in the eyes have a special murderous and ferocious meaning, like a giant beast from the wild.
Although the entire statue is a dead object, it exudes a hint of terrifying coercion, which is not at all inferior to the Demon Emperor I saw before, or even worse.
Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue were shocked: "This statue is a bit weird!"
Yuyanluo asked quietly: "Is it possible that Yao Zuhai is still alive?"
"How is it possible? The Demon Ancestor existed millions of years ago, how is it possible that he is still alive now?" Yun Jianyue shook his head, "But this statue does seem to have the aura of the Demon Ancestor."
"Could it be that the demon emperors of all dynasties have entrusted the remnant souls of their heroes on this statue? But how could this be possible?" Yan Xuehen muttered to himself, seeming to be stuck in an academic problem.
Zu An was looking at the situation in the palace, and saw a person in the center wearing a golden robe, and there was an arrogance in his movements. Who else could he be if he wasn't the Golden Crow Crown Prince?
Eighteen guards were scattered around the main hall to guard the side. Each warrior was elite and restrained. The lowest ones had ninth-grade cultivation, but the highest ones did not exceed the Golden Crow Crown Prince.
To be brought here by the Golden Crow Prince, he is obviously a confidant among his confidants.
At this time, Prince Jinwu had already walked step by step under the statue of Demon Ancestor, with a hint of excitement and admiration on his face.
"I am about to begin the trial. Guard the surrounding exits and do not allow anyone to approach and disturb me." Prince Jinwu ordered.
"Yes!" The eighteen guards replied angrily, and then stood guard at various locations around the perimeter in a tacit understanding. For example, a guard ran up to the passage where Zu An and the others were, scaring them so much that they hurriedly retreated. They shrank their bodies, but fortunately each of them had extremely outstanding concealment skills, so they were not discovered.
Seeing all this, Prince Jinwu nodded with satisfaction, then opened his arms towards the statue of the Demon Ancestor, chanting a series of obscure syllables in his mouth.
The demon ancestor statue seemed to come to life, and its eyes brightened significantly. _&
