Tomb Raiding: My Family's Last Clan Chief is Little Brother

Chapter 131 Kunlun Divine Embryo
Zhang Wuxun said urgently to the young man, "Quick, something's happened to Panzi!"

It turned out that the snow layer around the bare rock where Panzi and the others were standing was thicker than the ice layer. Perhaps because it had experienced many avalanches before, the ground in that area was already somewhat loose. It was not very noticeable when it was buried in the snow, but this explosion happened to hit the spot. The impact of the sliding snow layer on the ice and the avalanche above caused the bare rock under Panzi and the others, along with a small patch of permafrost below, to crack and slide down.

Without giving anyone time to react, Panzi and the others were thrown onto the snow slope and rolled down the ice cliff together with the snow.

The young man quickly changed into his spiked shoes, tied a climbing rope around Zhang Wuxun's waist, and threw it to the fat man and Wu Xiaoxie above so they could grab on. Then he got up and nimbly moved around on the ice, appearing in front of Pan Zi in the blink of an eye.

Because of the rope, Pan Zi lay on the edge of the ice cliff with his upper body on it, his hands tightly gripping the protrusions on the ice. He tried to pull himself up, but the ice was too slippery, and his struggles were futile.

Two legs dangling down were held tightly in the air by Hua Heshang and Ye Cheng. As Chen Pi Asi fell, he threw out his nine-clawed hook and snagged the climbing rope around Pan Zi's waist. The sharp claws tore through Pan Zi's down jacket, and bloodstains appeared. The old man himself was leisurely and even had the leisure to help the "Cannon God" Lang Feng, who had been knocked unconscious by an ice block. He held Lang Feng by the collar with just one hand without any difficulty.

Chen Pi Asi saw the young man, shouted "Catch!", then stretched his arm, swayed his body, and with a forceful throw, flung Lang Feng up.

The nine-clawed hook with Chen Pi A Si hanging from it slid down with his movement, and Pan Zi groaned, gritting his teeth to endure the pain in his back.

The young man caught Lang Feng and put him aside. He immediately grabbed the chain of the nine-clawed hook and lifted Chen Pi Asi up. Then, he did the same to bring up Hua Heshang and the other two and spread them out on the ground.

Pan Zi seemed to have strained the muscles in his waist. After getting up, he lay on the ice, unable to move, his face pale.

No wonder, with the weight of four adults all on him, even an iron man couldn't withstand it.

The force pulling Zhang Wuxun was gone. Wu Xiaoxie and Fatty changed into spiked shoes and ran over to help him up and take him back to the bottom of the bare rock. They untied the rope around his waist, and then together with Xiao Ge, they dragged Chen Pi Asi and the others over here as well.

With three more wounded at once, two of whom were key combatants in their own team, Wu Xiaoxie and Fatty looked ashen-faced as if they were in a coffin.

If Lang Feng hadn't also been injured and unconscious, the fat man would have definitely given this guy a good beating.

"Damn it, this lousy God of Cannons, he's more like a plague god to me." The fat man cursed in a low voice as he relit the smokeless stove. Looking at Zhang Wuxun's miserable state, he wished he could kick Chen Pi Asi and his gang off the cliff one by one.

Zhang Wuxun patted the fat man's arm reassuringly. He felt a burning pain in his waist. Luckily, his clothes were thick, otherwise the injury would have been more serious.

Lying on the ground, gently inhaling the cool air, Zhang Wuxun felt the pain ease slightly. He slowly got up, sidled up to Pan Zi, and watched as Wu Xiaoxie peeled off the torn fabric on his back, gently applied some medicinal powder, and then wrapped the clothes together with gauze.

In this freezing weather, it's impossible to treat the wound more carefully; we can only stop the bleeding for now and deal with it later.

Zhang Wuxun lowered his eyelids, concealing the surging murderous intent in his eyes.

Chen Pi Asi, with a perfunctory expression, offered a half-hearted apology to Pan Zi.

Pan Zi looked at Zhang Wuxun, who was injured because of him, and a trace of apology and heartache flashed in his eyes. Hearing Chen Pi Asi's words, he clenched his fist at his side, gritted his teeth and pulled at the corner of his mouth, "Fourth Uncle is too kind."

Chen Pi Asi glanced at Wu Xiaoxie's group, noting their strength, weakness, fatness, injuries, and even a faint one, and nodded in satisfaction.

After all that commotion, the setting sun had faded, night had fallen, and the wind on the mountaintop seemed stronger than before. Monk Hua shone his flashlight on the ice, then suddenly exclaimed "Eh!" with a strange expression. The faint light pierced through the dark blue glacier, and something strange seemed to be deep within the ice.

Chen Pi A Si and the others gathered around.

Zhang Wuxun patted the fat man and said coldly, "We can't let those people benefit all by themselves. Fatty, you have sharp eyes, go over and help us see what they found down there."

The fat man responded, ran over to take a look, listened for a bit, and then came back, looking somewhat excited.

"That old ghost said that a Kunlun fetus was found in the ice layer below, and that the place where the Kunlun fetus is found must have a dragon vein, a natural treasure cave, and they are already planning to dig down there."

Upon hearing "Kunlun fetus," Wu Xiaoxie's face showed a hint of curiosity. He turned his head to look at Zhang Wuxun and Pan Zi, then lowered his buttocks back down.

Zhang Wuxun was also a little interested. Feeling that his waist injury had almost healed, he helped the fat man to his feet and gestured with his chin in that direction, "Let's go take a look."

The young man carried Panzi on his back, the fat man carried Shunzi on his back, and the group walked over, exchanging glances with Monk Hua and his companions.

Chen Pi Asi waved his hand, and Hua Heshang and the others made way, revealing the so-called "Kunlun Embryo" to Zhang Wuxun and the others.

A huge, indistinct shadow occupied almost half of the ice cliff; its shape resembled a curled-up, large-headed baby.

As darkness fell completely, the entire ice sheet became pitch black, making the enormous shadow inside even more indistinct. In the dim light, its edges seemed to be covered with bristles, creating an eerie and unsettling sight.

Chen Pi Asi and the others had already discussed going down to take a look, but they were at a loss because the ice was too thick.

Zhang Wuxun and the others were also discussing it.

Based on his past experience, the fat man deduced that what they were standing on was definitely a very thick artificial ice wall. Since it was an ice wall, it couldn't be directly pressing down on the building, so it must have a curve, forming a natural ice dome, pressing down on the slope to protect the building below. Similar to an ice mound, the ice wasn't actually as thick as he had imagined.

The fat man's words made a lot of sense, so Wu Xiaoxie used the formulas he had learned to calculate that the ice layer under his feet would not exceed ten meters.

Upon hearing this, Ye Cheng exclaimed, "Ten meters? That would take forever to shovel! We'd be frozen solid in one night on this snowy mountain!"

No one paid any attention to his screams.

The young man helped Pan Zirang lean against Wu Xiaoxie, walked to the bottom of the bare rock, and carried the burning smokeless stove over to the ice. "This should work."
