Chapter 107: Spiritual Objects in the Imperial Mausoleum
"Hu Bafeng?"

Zheng Yi was surprised and said, "Let him in."

"promise!"

Soon, Hu Bafeng, smelling of dirt, walked in quickly.

"I greet your majesty!"

"Get up."

Zheng Yi raised his hand and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to see me? What's the important matter?"

"Your Majesty, we seem to have found the main tomb."

"Oh? The main tomb? Really?"

“Should, should be…”

Hu Bafeng hesitated and said, "The surrounding cement soil has been tested by us and is at least three hundred years old. There is also a faint trace of the existence of the Dragon Breaking Stone."

"Then keep digging. What happened?"

"Yes, there are special mechanisms, and there are some things that we can't understand..."

"Something you don't understand?"

Zheng Yi said: "Take me to see it."

"promise!"

After thinking about it, he sent someone back to the palace to invite Cui Xiabing and Yuechan over.

Although the cultivation levels of these two women are not high, they are cultivators after all.

As for True Man Yuheng, he should just stay in the palace obediently.

She is a second-level Qi training cultivator who was fooled by Zhao Xizheng. There is really no point for her to come here.

Under the leadership of Hu Bafeng, Zheng Yi soon arrived at the imperial tomb of Zheng Mingsen, the founding emperor of the country, on Tianshou Mountain.

At this time, there was a huge pit on the left side of Zheng Mingsen’s imperial mausoleum, and there were guards guarding it. Figures in black clothes were coming in and out, looking very busy.

As soon as they saw Zheng Yi coming, they all knelt down and shouted "Long live Zheng Yi".

As we continued down the tomb pit, the surrounding space became narrower, with braziers standing on both sides for lighting.

Hu Bafeng introduced as he walked: "Your Majesty, we were ordered by the Emperor to dig this mausoleum. It took us about two years and more than 3,000 people to finally dig the main tomb."

"The main tomb is ahead, but our progress has been blocked by a very strange wall. We have tried many methods but have been unable to break through the wall. We have no choice but to ask for help from Your Majesty."

Zheng Yi also nodded slightly and continued to move forward. Soon the space in front suddenly became clear and a huge hole appeared.

Looking up, I saw stalactites hanging upside down in the air above my head, which were extremely magnificent. There were also several small streams converging on the ground, and I didn't know where they flowed to.

"Your Majesty, this is a natural underground cave. The late emperor used this cave as the outer space of the main tomb."

Hu Bafeng continued, "We speculate that the main tomb chamber is behind that stone wall."

"Oh?"

Zheng Yi looked and saw that the direction Hu Bafeng was pointing was a stone wall right in front of him.

This stone wall seems to be integrated with the surrounding cavity, and is covered with a large amount of moss and lichen.

But the strange thing was that this wall was indeed straight, unlike the empty wall behind them which was curved inward.

"Your Majesty, look down upon it."

Hu Bafeng walked quickly to the wall and rubbed it with his hand. Zheng Yi walked forward and saw that strange lines were actually drawn on the wall that was originally covered with moss.

If you look closely, it looks like layers of clouds and mist, or like fish scales.

They piled up layer by layer, almost covering the entire wall.

Zheng Yi looked up and saw that the height of the wall alone was nearly a hundred meters.

A group of them stood here, like ants standing under an elephant.

"Main tomb chamber...have you found a way to break through?"

Hu Bafeng shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, we have tried every possible method, but we cannot dig it out."

“It was impossible to scrape off even a small corner. It was as if this was not a stone wall but made of fine steel.”

"This method of building a tomb is unheard of. I have never seen it in the past thirty years."

Zheng Yi went forward to check it out, and even touched the wall with his hand, marveling at it.

To the naked eye, the stone wall was covered with dense lines, but the strange thing was that when he put his hand against it, he didn't feel any roughness at all.

It's as if these lines are integrated with the stone wall and were born that way.

"The methods of the immortals..."

He whispered that such means could probably only be achieved by those monks who could fly into the sky and into the ground more than three hundred years ago.

No wonder Huo Lingzi went to great lengths to dig up the imperial tomb. It was not for gold, silver or money.

Rather, it is the items for cultivation that have been stored by the royal family of Dayu for more than three hundred years!

"Set up camp here and take a rest first."

"promise!"

The entourage planned to set up camp immediately, and Zheng Yi reluctantly spent the night here, constantly checking out the strange stone wall.

On the second day, Cui Xiabing and Yuechan came together.

"I have met His Majesty."

"My two beloved concubines, please stand up quickly."

Zheng Yi stepped forward to support the two girls. Yuechan's big eyes were full of surprise. She looked around carefully, and everything she saw was full of interest.

Cui Xiabing looked a little strange, and whispered: "Your Majesty, this place seems to be... the mausoleum of the previous emperors. Why did you dig here?"

The emperor of the time actually dug up the tombs of previous emperors.

If this matter gets out, Zheng Yi will definitely suffer the consequences.

There is no telling how many ministers in the court will voice their protests, and even the princes stationed throughout the country will rise up in arms to attack.

This matter is really too dangerous!
Zheng Yi took the two women's hands and came to the wall, whispering: "My beloved, take a look at this wall first, is it made by the immortals?"

"Immortal methods?"

Cui Xiabing suppressed her surprise and carefully examined the patterns on the wall.

Yuechan on the side also looked at it carefully, touching it with her hands while looking at the sea and examining it carefully.

Before Cui Xiabing could react, Yuechan suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I seem to have seen these patterns before~"

"Oh?"

Zheng Yi's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "Where have you seen this before, my beloved concubine? What do these lines mean?"

"Inside the high priest's tent and in the tombs of our ancestors." Yuechan said, "The high priest once said that these strange patterns are called 'runes' and are the origin of cultivation."

"The origin of cultivation?"

Zheng Yi asked curiously: "What is that?"

Yuechan shook her head and said, "I don't know either, but the high priest said that these runes are very important. Whether it's making pills or controlling poisonous insects, these runes are needed."

"Your Majesty, I remember that, too."

Cui Xiabing at the side also said: "Master once studied the formation, and I have seen these runes in the classics in her hand."

"According to Master, the foundation of all cultivation arts and spells is actually these runes. Use your own magic power to condense the runes, resonate with the surrounding spiritual energy, and then cast spells."

"Or you can attach different runes to elixirs, magic tools or talismans, and then you can make elixirs, refine tools, or form formations."

"The most straightforward way to use runes is with different talismans."

"Condense the magic power into runes, and then attach them to the talisman paper to form a talisman!"

"talisman..."

Zheng Yi recalled that Huo Lingzi had used talismans on the night Yang Xuansu plotted rebellion several years ago.

It seems that there are indeed things for cultivation here.

"Can you tell what material this wall is made of? Can it be penetrated?"

Zheng Yi explained the wall. After hearing that even swords and knives could not leave marks on it, the two women were amazed.

After observing it for a few more minutes, Cui Xiabing said uncertainly: "This rune seems to be very similar to the protective rune that Master once taught me. Maybe it is part of a large formation!"

"A large formation? Can it be broken?"

"I will take another look."

Cui Xiabing stood in front of the stone wall, with his hands pressed against the wall, and began to sense something carefully.

Yuechan also released the golden silk Gu, climbed onto the stone wall, and actually opened her mouth and started biting hard. 】

After a cup of tea, Cui Xiabing opened his eyes and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, there seems to be no spiritual energy fluctuation in this battle. Is it so difficult to endure because the spiritual energy of this formation has been exhausted in more than three hundred years?"

"possible."

Zheng Yi guessed, "According to what my beloved concubine said before, the item used for trading in the cultivation world today is called Lingsha. I guess it was about the same more than 300 years ago."

"To maintain the operation of such a huge formation, a large amount of spiritual sand must be consumed."

"This great formation may really fail."

"Your Majesty, I have also discovered it."

Yuechan suddenly spoke up, the golden silk Gu was holding a small piece of cotton candy-like substance in its mouth and was eating it with relish.

"Oh? What did you find, my dear?"

"This is not stone, nor is it made of gold or iron. It is a wall made of a special plant."

"plant?"

"Yes."

Yuechan nodded and said, "Your Majesty, look at my golden silk Gu. It can eat anything except gold and iron, but it can eat blood, flesh, plants, and other substances."

"And according to the spiritual fluctuations transmitted to me by the Golden Silk Gu, this wall may have been a spiritual object in the past. Unfortunately, over three hundred years have passed, and it has long lost its spirituality."

Cui Xiabing suddenly said, "Your Majesty, how about trying my flying sword technique?"

"Flying sword?"

"Yes, if it is a spiritual formation, you must find the corresponding formation eye to break it, otherwise you will be counterattacked by the formation."

Cui Xiabing explained: "This formation has long lost its spirituality and has no spiritual energy to replenish. It only needs to be broken by force."

Zheng Yi's eyes lit up and he said, "Sure, I've long wanted to see my beloved concubine's flying sword technique!"

Hu Bafeng was confused. Flying sword technique? What was that?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Concubine Cui, who was as beautiful as a fairy from a painting, took a few steps back, took a deep breath, made a hand gesture, and changed rapidly.

"Hey~!"

The next moment, there was a dragon roar, and a beam of light emitting misty water vapor rushed out from behind her and floated in the air.

The entire cave became filled with moisture because of this ray of light, and there was even a slight chill coming from it.

"Flying sword!"

"Fairy!"

"Greetings to the Immortal~!"

The tomb raiders and palace guards who were serving on the side also saw Cui Xiabing perform the flying sword technique for the first time. They were immediately frightened and fell to their knees, shouting "immortal."

Cui Xiabing did not hesitate at all. He pointed forward with one hand and the flying sword immediately shot out and slashed on the wall.

"Binghe, go!"

"This is...!"

An unpleasant and harsh friction sound was heard suddenly, and the flying sword instantly slashed on the wall, slashing diagonally upwards from the center below.

In an instant, an ugly scar appeared on the stone wall, revealing its true appearance.

What was strange was that after the wall was unfolded, it slowly split open like a half piece of pork, with sticky blood entangled in the middle.

It's like... the connection is still there!
"This……"

Zheng Yi's face changed drastically: "Still alive?!"

"No, not alive!"

Yuechan said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I know what this is, it's konjac sea lotus root!"

"Konjac sea lotus root?"

Zheng Yi asked curiously: "What is that?"

"I heard from the Great Elder that the konjac lotus root is a special spiritual plant that grows beneath the surface of a lake deep in the mountains. Although it cannot move, it can lure surrounding creatures to its side by emitting a strange fragrance, and then wrap them up with lotus root silk and devour them."

"This konjac lotus root is very difficult to kill. Even if it is cut off by a flying sword, it can be reconnected and restored through the talent of 'broken lotus root'."

"The most important thing is that this konjac lotus root has extremely powerful repairing ability. It is a powerful elixir for some monks who mainly cultivate wood attributes to make up for their broken limbs."

"It's a pity that this konjac lotus root seems to have died, and its recovery ability has been greatly weakened."

"A dead spiritual plant?"

Zheng Yi frowned and said, "My beloved concubine, just tell me how to pass through this wall made of konjac and lotus root."

"It's very simple, just burn it with fire!"

　I caught a cold and my whole body aches, but I gritted my teeth and took it off. I support it.
