I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 186 Zhaoyao Mountain Recorded in the Imperial Daughter's Tomb

Looking at the collapsed Zhong Xiang, Zhang Chen felt disgusted but also very proud.

I tortured Zhong Xiang physically, but this kid was immortal and didn't feel any pain, so I would attack him mentally.

Zhong Xiang's scream of collapse resounded throughout the stone cave and spread upwards. Zhang Chen inserted a finger into Zhong Xiang's mouth, poking his throat and causing him to shut up immediately.

"If you shout again, next time I won't stab your throat. God knows where I'll stab you next time." Zhang Chen looked at Zhong Xiang with a lewd smile on his face.

Zhong Xiang was so angry that he couldn't speak. He closed his eyes in despair and said sadly, "Kill me."

"If you are willing to obey me, I will not kill you." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

"Bah! Don't even think about it! Dream on!" Zhong Xiang cursed in disgust.

"Xiangxiang, don't be so excited. What can't be discussed? It's just a few pokes. You won't die. You are such a stingy person." Zhang Chen stroked Zhong Xiang's head.

"Take your dirty hands away." Zhong Xiang felt that Zhang Chen's palms were extremely disgusting, and his hair stood on end.

Zhang Chen smiled upon hearing this, and looked at the other person with a playful expression on his face. The ice in his hand condensed into a knife: "Hey, you dare to talk to me like this?"

Zhong Xiang huddled in a corner, looking at Zhang Chen with a weak, pitiful and helpless expression: "Don't stab me with the knife. I... I can cooperate with you to melt the magma, can't I?"

He finally gave in and bowed to evil.

Zhang Chen smiled strangely and said, "You were so arrogant before, but that's not what you said when I begged you. Stop talking nonsense and turn your butt around quickly, or I'll stab your little 'Jiji' directly."

Zhong Xiang's expression froze on his face. The next moment, he jumped up and rushed towards Zhang Chen, slapping him on the head with his palm: "I will fight you."

Unfortunately, Zhong Xiang had just pounced to one meter in front of Zhang Chen, and his fingertips had just touched Zhang Chen's clothes when he was frozen by the ice.

"Why bother?" Zhang Chen condensed an ice dagger in his hand and slowly turned behind Zhong Xiang. As he thought about it, the ice frozen on Zhong Xiang's buttocks instantly melted into water.

Zhang Chenshang reached out his hand to lift the butt curtain, looked at the white and tender radish, stretched out his hand to pinch a few times: "It's soft and elastic, just like a 28-year-old girl, it feels really good."

Zhang Chen praised in his mouth, but his hands moved ruthlessly and fiercely, and the ice knife dagger pierced directly into the white and tender radish.

The next moment Zhang Chen was frozen in ice, and at the same time, flames gushed out from Zhong Xiang's body, and in an instant the cave burst into flames again.

The magma continued to sink, and Zhong Xiang regained his freedom. He turned around and cursed at Zhang Chen: "You despicable villain, I will never let you go! I will fight you!"

Zhong Xiang swam in the magma and rushed towards Zhang Chen who was wrapped in ice, ready to fight him to the death. However, Zhang Chen kicked out and kicked Zhong Xiang directly to the bottom of the magma pond.

The magma under the pond continued to melt and was pushed out by Zhang Chen again and again. Finally, at dawn, Zhang Chen and Zhong Xiang stopped because a bronze stone door in front of them blocked their way.

In front of the bronze stone gate, there stands a white jade stele. The stele is two meters high, with countless auspicious cloud symbols engraved on the front and fine small characters engraved on the back.

Zhang Chen took a rough look at the layout of the bronze stone gate in front of him, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. The layout of this bronze stone gate was exactly the same as that of the True Dragon Tomb.

"This must be the entrance to the tomb." When Zhang Chen saw the bronze stone door, a look of ecstasy appeared in his eyes. He never thought that after melting hundreds of meters of cave overnight, he actually came to the door of the tomb.

"Is this... the Feng Shui tomb?" Zhong Xiang, who had been feeling miserable, suddenly perked up after seeing the bronze gate in front of him, and a lot of the sadness in his heart was relieved.

Then he glanced at Zhang Chen inconspicuously, and began to be proud again in his heart: "Humph, I am the favored son of heaven, the darling of the times. The reason why this Feng Shui tomb came into the world is due to my luck. The treasures and fortunes in the tomb are all prepared for me. You, a lowly, dirty, and filthy man like an ant, also want to obtain the mysteries in the tomb? You simply don't know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth. When I collect the treasures in the tomb and break your seal, it will be your death."

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiang thought of his face and lips that had been licked, and he couldn't help feeling nauseous. He quickly reached out his hand and rubbed his face hard, spitting a few mouthfuls of saliva and wiping his face.

Zhang Chen ignored Zhong Xiang's actions and took a closer look at the bronze gate. It was exactly the same structure as the bronze gate of the Real Dragon Tomb. The only difference was that there were nine lifelike dragons carved on the bronze gate.

Zhang Chen glanced at the bronze door. The bronze door in front of him was tightly closed, without even a gap. He wondered if water vapor could penetrate in.

He then looked at the jade stele beside him. After scanning the pattern on the front of the stele, he did not notice anything unusual. He turned around and looked at the fine, small characters on the back of the stele.

He actually recognized these small characters. It was the language that the Great Freedom Demon had taught him when he had just entered the spiritual world.

"Xia Zhi is the daughter of the Great Emperor. She was born to the Emperor's Concubine in Zhaoyao Mountain. Zhaoyao Mountain is the home of the Emperor's majority 'ape'. Its power shakes the South Mountain, its influence overwhelms the Central Mountain, and its name terrifies the Central Earth."

When Zhang Chen saw this line of text, he felt like he was struck by lightning. His eyes were full of disbelief. Looking at those familiar words, he felt his head buzzing.

"Zhaoyao Mountain? Ape Tribe?" Zhang Chen looked at the familiar names and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He felt his mouth was dry and countless thoughts in his mind were rolling in his heart like waves.

coincidence?

How could there be such a coincidence in the world?

"There is a Nanshan Mountain in the first level of the spiritual world. Under the Nanshan Mountain is a Zhaoyao Mountain. Under the Zhaoyao Mountain is a small tribe, and the name of the small tribe is 'Ape'. What is the connection between the two?" Zhang Chen's head was buzzing.

One is in an extremely distant spiritual world, and the other is in the real world. How can the two be connected?
Zhang Chen sat in front of the tombstone for a long time. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out the connection.

"Hey, you come to the tombstone to read the epitaph? You are a peasant who can't even recognize a single word. How can you recognize it? You can't even recognize modern characters, let alone the characters from ancient times?" Zhong Xiang also came forward and sneered with contempt on his face.

He knew that Zhang Chen couldn't kill him now and had to rely on him to clear the way, so he was very confident at this moment.

"Backstab!" Facing Zhong Xiang's ridicule, Zhang Chen just looked at Zhong Xiang's butt with a lewd face.

Zhong Xiang squeezed his buttocks and wanted to slap himself. Why did you provoke him for no reason?
Seeing Zhong Xiang giving in, Zhang Chen asked, "Do you recognize him?" Zhong Xiang didn't say anything and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

"Stab?" Zhang Chen uttered a word and looked at Zhong Xiang with a playful expression.

Zhong Xiang was so angry that he took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then replied in a normal tone: "I don't know him."

"You don't even know me yourself, and you still have the qualifications to laugh at me?" Zhang Chen glanced at Zhong Xiang, a hint of contempt flashing in his eyes.

"You talk as if you know him." Zhong Xiang couldn't help but be provoked by Zhang Chen and said unhappily.

"How dare you talk to me like that? Thorn?" Zhang Chen said with a lewd look on his face.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Zhong Xiang's face flushed with anger: "You might as well just kill me right now."

"Stab?" Zhang Chen said calmly.

"I was wrong!" Zhong Xiang gritted his teeth and uttered a few words. Facing Zhang Chen's obscene eyes, he had to admit his mistake.

"That's more like it!" Zhang Chen smiled proudly and turned his head to continue looking at the words on the stone tablet.

The second paragraph caught Zhang Chen's eye, and he interpreted it carefully:

"Xia Zhi is the eldest daughter of the Emperor. She was born sacred and mastered the power of dreams. She was the number one prodigy in the mountains and seas. She entered the ranks at the age of one, killed a sixth-rank beast in her dream at the age of five, and slaughtered an eighth-rank god at the age of sixteen. Later, in the 360 ​​years of spring and autumn, she followed the Emperor to Zhaoyao, killed 71 gods, razed the South Mountain, pacified the North Mountain, and went to the Central Mountain in four directions, and pacified it. Later, she followed the Emperor to conquer the Great Wilderness in 'Lu', but was attacked by the devil in her dream and died! The Emperor was grieved and killed 300 gods, and buried Zhi with her in her hometown Zhaoyao."

Zhang Chen read this passage and felt that there was an inexplicable sadness between the lines, which seemed to pierce his heart. Every word contained a great spiritual will, which had never been erased even after countless years.

"The woman in the tomb has such a great origin? No wonder she was buried with the 'Ying' dragon! There were even three hundred gods buried with her..." Zhang Chen's eyes lit up, like a light bulb, flashing with light.

Of course, good fortune is accompanied by crisis. Maybe it was good fortune in this tomb. Maybe the three hundred gods had undergone strange changes, which might take the lives of the tomb robbers.

Zhang Chenyan pondered for a moment and continued to look down:
"Any tomb robber will have his soul extracted and refined, his tribe destroyed, and his ashes scattered. Emperor, write!"

The words on the tombstone ended here. Zhang Chen looked at the epitaph in front of him, unable to come back to his senses.

"This tomb is filled with great fortune. Not only are there three hundred gods buried with the dead, but there is also a twelfth-rank mystery serving as the core of the Feng Shui suppression formation. From this, we can infer that the level of the mystery buried with the dead in the tomb is definitely not weak." Zhang Chen was a little nervous. Not to mention how high the levels of the three hundred gods were, even if they were all first-rank beings, he couldn't afford to offend them.

When he saw it, he had to run away immediately and had no way to resist at all.

"The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. If I enter the tomb, not to mention obtaining the three hundred mysteries, even if every mystery reveals a skill for me, that would be a great fortune. Moreover, I also have the Nine-Bend Yellow River Talisman Array. Even if there are really three hundred old guys in it, if I lure those old guys in, it seems that those three hundred old guys won't be able to cause any waves?" Thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen's mind.

"And the princess is so terrifyingly powerful, so what kind of demon is that killed her?" Zhang Chen looked at the word "demon" on the stone tablet and began to ponder in his heart.

This tomb of the imperial daughter is not simple, and there are too many secrets hidden within it.

And he discovered in the spiritual world that there was also an ape tribe, and it was also built on Zhaoyao Mountain...

“If I can go into Zhaoyao Mountain again and look for clues in the Ape Tribe, I might be able to find records about the Tomb of the Imperial Daughter. Then it would be much easier to steal the fortune in the Tomb of the Imperial Daughter.” Zhang Chen pondered to himself.

According to the timeline, the ape tribe in the spiritual world now is most likely the remaining inheritance after the end of the "Emperor" era, and there are very likely records about the emperor and his daughter in the tribe.

"But why is there an ape tribe in the spiritual world, and records about the ape tribe appear in the material world? What is the relationship between the two?" Zhang Chen was a little confused. If the Great Freedom Demon was here, perhaps he could ask him.

However, the Great Freedom Demon is not here, but he still has the dog-headed military strategist and the fox fairy Nannan.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chen summoned the fox fairy Nannan, who cast an illusion to deceive Zhong Xiang's perception. Then she looked at Zhang Chen, the stone tablet in front of Zhang Chen, and the bronze gate. Suddenly, she was filled with ecstasy: "Did we find the entrance to the tomb?"

"We have found the entrance to the tomb, but it is not easy to enter the tomb and seize the fortune." Zhang Chen said.

"What's wrong? Can't break the bronze door? Or has something unexpected happened?" Fox Fairy Nannan asked puzzledly.

"Now that I have read the epitaph, I have a question in my mind. If I don't get an answer, I'm afraid I won't dare to enter the tomb." Zhang Chen kept his eyes on the epitaph, hoping to see something.

Upon hearing this, the fox fairy Nannan looked at the jade stele, swept her eyes across it, and was stunned: "Can you understand these strange words?"

"Of course." Zhang Chen said.

There was a hint of disbelief in the eyes of the fox fairy Nannan. Zhang Chen became more and more mysterious in her eyes. According to her understanding, Zhang Chen would never recognize the words in front of him, but now he recognized them.

"It will be hard to fool two-legged beasts that can read in the future," the fox fairy Nannan complained secretly.

"What does this text say?"

The fox fairy Nannan did not delve into the matter further, as she did not want to know more secrets of Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen told the story of Zhaoyao Mountain and the tribe: "What do you think is the connection between the two?"

Fox Fairy Nannan pondered for a moment after hearing this. The Dog-Headed Military Advisor had an idea at this time and said, "Ancient books record that sages once entered the spiritual world to pick great medicines. What does this mean? It means that things in the spiritual world can be brought into the material world. If this is the case, why can't the so-called Tomb of the Emperor's Daughter be brought out from the spiritual world?"

"Perhaps these things only happened in the spiritual world, and then this tomb fell from the spiritual world." Fox Fairy Nannan, the dog-headed military strategist, gave his own speculation.

This speculation is quite reasonable.
