Chapter 309: Chapter 309: Surprise! The Tomb Master Appears

The moment the bronze coffin was opened, an evil aura filled the air, the atmosphere in the main tomb suddenly dropped, and the torches shook violently.

The people who were about to turn around and leave stayed where they were, not because they wanted to stay, but because their blood seemed to be coagulated, and they were enveloped by a cold aura, as if their torsos and blood were frozen in the deep and extremely cold environment.

If Taoist Jinlian was a cat, he would have been furious now.

Clang!

There was a loud sound of the coffin lid falling to the ground behind them. At the same time, the people who had their backs to the high platform saw the steps below. The armored corpse guards twisted their necks together, turning 180 degrees against their skeletal structure, and their faces turned to their backs, staring at everyone silently.

This scene was too terrifying and weird, and huge fear exploded in their hearts. The tomb robbers of the Houtu Gang showed extremely terrified expressions.

Crack, crack...

Xu Qian'an heard the sound of bones popping not far from him, and the armored men standing at the four corners of the platform also revived.

He slowly turned his eyes to look at the expressions of his companions.

Chu Yuanzhen slightly opened his eyes, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. The long sword on his back trembled from time to time, as if he wanted to unsheathe, but was suppressed by an invisible force.

Master Hengyuan's facial muscles twitched, and his chewing muscles bulged. He tried his best to break through the suppression of the invisible force and regain his freedom.

Taoist Jinlian's chest rose and fell, as if he was doing some kind of breathing. He was the most stable and calm, but there was a resolute look in his eyes.

Is the Taoist holding back a big move, ready to cut off his tail to survive, or sacrifice himself to protect us... Xu Qian'an thought to himself, his eyes turned in his eye sockets, and he looked at Zhong Li.

Lina on her back was still unconscious, but she was the most "relaxed" one present. As for the unlucky Zhong Li, her delicate body under the linen robe was trembling slightly.

I don't know if it's her fault or mine... maybe both! Xu Qi'an thought with a smile.

At this time, a picture automatically appeared in his mind. A hand covered with green hair came out of the bronze coffin and pressed on the edge of the coffin.

The person in the coffin slowly stood up. It was a mummy wearing a yellow robe, wearing a crown made of pure gold on his head. The skin on his face was close to the bones, and his nose was rotten, leaving only two holes.

The eyeballs were embedded in the eye sockets, as if they would fall out at any time.

The moment the divine sense captured the mummy, Xu Qi'an's brain seemed to be embedded with steel nails, and he almost fainted from the pain, and the picture shattered.

The person lying in the coffin was indeed the Taoist priest, the second-grade who failed to pass the tribulation. No wonder he was so powerful... Xu Qi'an's scalp was a little numb.

After a few seconds of silence, the first footsteps came. The mummy left the bronze coffin and was walking slowly towards the crowd.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

The long sword behind Chu Yuanzhen shook violently, but it could not be unsheathed.

Click... The sweat on the top scholar's forehead finally rolled down.

Hengyuan's eyes bulged, veins on his cheeks and forehead bulged, and his muscles spasmed violently. But even so, he still couldn't break through the suppression of the invisible force. Zhong Li was like a quail, trembling all over, and his head was buried lower and lower.

The stench was overwhelming, and the members of the Hou Tu Gang in front were scared and urinated.

But it was not their fault. They were in an ancient tomb thousands of years ago, and the evil creature came out of the coffin and was slowly approaching them from behind...

Just thinking about it made people's backs cold, not to mention that this was a real thing. Taoist Jinlian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were clear. It seems that he has made up his mind.

At this moment, the footsteps stopped, and the hoarse and low voice spread to every space and every corner of the main tomb.

"Welcome the Lord back!"

The sound of armor plates colliding became one, and the mummies at the four corners of the high platform and the mummies on the steps all knelt down and worshiped someone in the crowd.

The evil and terrible aura quickly converged, like a receding tide.

Everyone was shocked to replace that they had regained their ability to move.

"Don't act rashly!"

Taoist Master Jinlian sent a message to everyone, including the tomb robbers.

"Gurgle..."

The sound of swallowing saliva kept ringing, and the tomb robbers' feet trembled, but they did not lose their reason. The past experience played a crucial role, so that they would not be like ordinary people, with a mental breakdown, and they only wanted to escape regardless of anything, making things worse.

At the same time, a thought flashed through their minds: Lord?

Who is the Lord? Looking at the posture of the mummy, it seems that the Lord is among us?

The tomb robbers looked at each other, trying to replace the "master" in the crowd. Who can become the master of the mummy? What kind of person is this?

And that person is among us...

The sick man gang leader subconsciously looked at the Taoist Jinlian. According to the content of the mural, the owner of this tomb is a Taoist, and there happened to be a master of the Earth Sect present.

The conclusion is very simple. This old Taoist is the master of the mummy.

"He, he actually has such an identity... So, this master of the Earth Sect did not come to the tomb this time to rescue us. Well, the actions of masters are not something that a commoner

like me can guess."

The sick man gang leader trembled with fear.

The wild sorcerer Gongyang Su looked at the Taoist Jinlian with doubt.

The Houtu Gang members who noticed the abnormality of the two leaders immediately looked at the Taoist Jinlian, who was most in line with the style of a master, and felt

extremely relieved.

The Tiandihui members stood very close to each other, so they couldn't tell who the mummy

in the yellow robe was kneeling on.

Chu Yuanzhen looked at Taoist Jinlian out of inertia.

Taoist Jinlian shook his head slightly.

Hengyuan was a martial monk, not a Taoist. Although he had good talents, he was not too strange... Lina was from the Gu tribe in southern Xinjiang and had nothing to do with this tomb... Miss Zhong from the Sitianjian could be ruled out directly... Could it be?!

Chu Yuanzhen turned his head suddenly and stared at Xu Qi'an.

He remembered the reason why the team came to the main tomb. It was Xu Qi'an's three consecutive "coincidences" that allowed them to enter the main tomb.

It turned out that everything was not accidental, but had a reason... Xu Ningyan was the master of the owner of this tomb?

This guess emerged in Chu Yuanzhen's mind, and he was frightened and his body trembled

inexplicably.

He was kneeling to me? Calling me master? Xu Qi'an, the person involved, could intuitively sense that the "lord" in the mummy's mouth was himself.

Huge surprise and confusion filled his brain, making him not know how to respond for a

while.

For a moment, he almost blurted out: Why do you say I am the lord!

But reason made him shut up, because there are only two situations in front of him: one, he is

really the lord of the yellow-robed mummy, and his identity is so terrible that it is

unimaginable.

Second, the mummy recognized the wrong person for some reason.

Let's ignore the first possibility. If it is the second one, the mummy recognized the wrong

person. Then if he rashly asks, his identity will definitely be revealed.

At that time, what greets them is a group annihilation.

Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an forcibly suppressed the surging emotions, stared at the yellow-

robed mummy expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice:

"Well done."

The mummy buried its head lower and lower.

Seeing this scene, the sick man gang leader was almost stunned. He slowly widened his eyes.

It turned out that the "master" in the mummy's mouth was the sixth-rank warrior, not the

Taoist priest of the Earth Sect?

This, this... He is just a warrior.

Gong Yangsu also couldn't hide his shock. At this moment, he was extremely fortunate that he did not quietly start the Qi-reading technique after removing these "reinforcements". Otherwise, he might have died on the spot, and the cause of death was seeing something he shouldn't have seen.

The members of the Hou Tu Gang held their breath and looked at Xu Qi'an stupidly.

The mummy, with its head down, made a low voice again, with some doubts: "Why didn't the

master become an immortal?"

Become, become an immortal?!

This sentence was like a thunder, exploding in everyone's ears. The weak tomb robbers, the highly cultivated Taoist priest Jinlian, and of course Xu Qi'an, all had a storm in their hearts at

the same time.

But compared to the tomb robbers who lost their ability to control their expressions, Xu Qi'an and others were relatively calm and did not show any expression.

Xu Qi'an stared at the mummy expressionlessly, but his inner drama exploded at this

moment.

Become, become an immortal? According to my understanding, becoming an immortal means transcending the grade, and being on the same level as Buddha, Gu God, and Wu God.

Who is the lord of this yellow-robed mummy?

After the gods and demons, there are only a few beings that surpass their level. This tomb is

more than two thousand years old. Has anyone become an immortal in the past two thousand

years?

No, it may be that they failed to become immortals, but the mummy doesn't know... Damn, I can also encounter beings of this level in the next tomb... It must be Zhong Li's fault,

it must be her fault... What should I do, how should I answer?

The mummy lowered its head, and the eyes that were about to fall out of the eye sockets

moved, as if examining Xu Qiyan.

Xu Qiyan, who noticed the mummy's scrutiny, suddenly had sharp eyes and said slowly: "Are

you teaching me how to do things?"

The mummy lowered its head in fear, and its body trembled slightly, "My lord, please forgive

me, my lord, please forgive me."

As he said that, he untied the yellow robe, revealing the shriveled flesh inside, his chest collapsed, and the outlines of his ribs appeared one by one under the thin skin.

In addition, Xu Qiyan noticed that the body of the mummy seemed to have been burned.

"Puff..." Suddenly, the mummy did something no one expected. He raised his palm and stabbed into his chest, digging out an object from it. It was not a heart, but a clear jade seal.

"My lord, are you here for this jade seal? You left it in my body and asked me to keep it well. I,

I have kept it properly. Now, I will return it to you, my lord."

The mummy presented the jade seal with both hands and said hoarsely: "Now, what year is it now?"

"The current Central Plains dynasty is called Dafeng." Xu Qi'an said lightly. "Dafeng..." The mummy murmured and asked humbly: "I, how many years have I been

asleep?"

How the hell do I know? Why don't you come with me first? I'll hand you over to the country and let the researchers tell you the answer... Xu Qi'an complained wildly in his heart.

His brain was running at high speed, and he didn't take the initiative to answer the mummy's

question. He said lightly: "Time is meaningless to us, isn't it."

Beautiful answer!

Taoist Jinlian encouraged Xu Ningyan excitedly. Xu Ningyan was really stable.

He gave Xu Qian'an a look in a veil, telling him that it was almost done and to replace a way to get

out.

Xu Qian'an got it, and while reaching out to pick up the jade seal, he said, "Go back and sleep." He didn't say much, firstly because he was afraid of saying more and making more mistakes, and secondly because he was being stubborn now. As the lord, he didn't need to explain to his subordinates to take back his things.

In fact, he didn't want the jade seal, but judging from the attitude of the mummy, the jade seal seemed very important. If he didn't take it, it might make the mummy suspicious. The jade seal was hard and felt like warm jade. Xu Qian'an turned the jade seal calmly and saw

the words engraved on the bottom. He only had time to write down a few words. Suddenly, the jade seal turned into white sand and passed through his fingers.

An indescribable and ineffable force, like a tide, rushed into Xu Qian'an's body through his

arm.

He felt the blood in his body rushing into his brain, causing a strong dizziness, as if

something in his body had awakened.

"You are not the lord..."

The mummy suddenly raised his head, and blood burst out of his eyeballs bit by bit.

The hoarse and low voice echoed in the tomb, mixed with strong anger and murderous intent.

"Let's go!"

Taoist Jinlian reacted the fastest, waving his sleeves, creating a gust of wind, and the tomb

robbers of the Houtu Gang and Chu Yuanzhen and others were sent down the platform and

flew to the main tomb gate.

At the same time, he grabbed Xu Qi'an's shoulders and tried to throw him down.

He stayed and endured the anger of the mummy.

However, Xu Qi'an shook his shoulders, shook his hand away, and pressed his palm on his

chest, whispering: "Master, take them out.

I stay."

Bang!

The energy in the palm of his hand suddenly burst out, and Taoist Jinlian flew out like a

cannonball.

During the flying process, Taoist Jinlian saw the mummy grabbed Xu Qi'an's neck and lifted him up high. The soldiers at the four corners of the platform rushed forward with their weapons waving, wanting to cut the ant who pretended to be the master into pieces. "Xu Qi'an..." Taoist Jinlian murmured.
