The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"It is inscribed on the Zhenling Register that when the High Priest performs rituals, he wears a mask and wields a staff. These two items should be unique to the High Priest."

"There were no gold or jade artifacts in his coffin, so he doesn't seem like someone who covets wealth. Therefore, since he included this mask and cane as burial items, these two items must be very important, which is why he didn't pass them on to other priests."

"Perhaps they are sacrificial artifacts related to the tomb of King Xian, or even possibly related to the funerary objects found in the tomb!"

After giving some instructions, Fang Yun handed the walking stick to the old foreigner.

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, the old foreigner's expression tightened, and his previous resentful look vanished. He carefully put away the golden mask and the dragon-tiger cane.

Because of this delay, by the time the four of them came to their senses, it was already sunset, and the sky was gradually getting dark.

· ·········Request flowers· ···

So the four of them discussed it and decided to spend the night near the Zhenlingpu Temple and set off again early the next morning to find their way.

...............

As night fell, the four men sat around the fire chatting.

The old man and the flower were very good at warming up the atmosphere. As soon as they sat down, they started telling stories, all about the strange and interesting things they encountered when they went down into the tomb.

Partridge Whistle and Fang Yun listened quietly with smiles on their faces.

After Hua and the old foreigner had fallen asleep, Partridge Whistle looked at Fang Yun, hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Fang Yun asked with a puzzled look, "Brother Dao, is something on your mind?"

Partridge Whistle shook his head, glanced at the Tomb Suppression Register beside him, and lowered his voice to say:

"Brother Fang, what exactly is the feng shui position of that ancient immortal cave with its water dragon halo?"

.... 0 .......

"According to the inscription on the Zhenling Register, King Xian built his Heavenly Palace Mausoleum on the colorful clouds. I know that this is impossible, but I am still very puzzled."

"Knowing about this sooner will allow us to be prepared when we enter the tomb."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun's expression turned serious. He put down the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow that he had been playing with all night and explained:

"The Water Dragon Halo is called an ancient immortal acupoint because it only appeared in ancient times, and the feng shui location of the Water Dragon Halo can indeed be called an immortal acupoint."

"This kind of immortal cave is extremely rare in the world. It only exists in ancient legends, and no one in later generations has ever seen it with their own eyes."

"The explanation of this water dragon halo is quite complex and cannot be explained in a few words, but you can think of it as an inner canyon magnified ten thousand times, and the feng shui blessings within it are also ten thousand times greater than those within the inner canyon!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, Partridge Whistle's face flashed with horror.

According to Fang Yun, the inner palace could accommodate anyone except the emperor.

But this water dragon halo is actually worth ten thousand times more than the inner hidden abyss?

Does this kind of feng shui location really exist?

If it truly exists, then this Water Dragon's Dizziness is indeed worthy of being called a Celestial Cave. It should be something that only those true gods and immortals from ancient times, who only exist in legends, are qualified to use.

Chapter Seventy-Six: The Hidden Immortal Cave, the Entrance to the Insect Valley!

"That's ten thousand times!"

Seeing Partridge Whistle's incredulous expression, Fang Yun was also filled with emotion.

This wasn't something he made up; it was recorded in the Sixteen-Character Feng Shui Secret Technique.

According to records, this water dragon halo could obscure the sky and sun, concealing the secrets of heaven.

The ancient immortal burial site with its water dragon halo holds a position in feng shui that is almost equivalent to that of emperors like Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han. The mythical figures Pangu and Nuwa exist only in legends, and few feng shui sites can compare to it.

Emperors throughout history have been searching for this ancient celestial cave, but none of them have been able to find it. Unexpectedly, this Prince Xian was so lucky to find the Water Dragon Aura deep in the mountains.

However, it's not to say that the locations of emperors' tombs are all inferior to those of Shuilongyun.

After all... feng shui can be artificially created!

Take the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor as an example. It took nearly 39 years to build and more than 700,000 laborers were conscripted. The area that could be explored by manpower alone is as large as 78 Forbidden Cities!

There are over four hundred different burial pits and mausoleums, and the Terracotta Army is just one of them.

It's a real shame that such an ancient and sacred site as Shuilongyun was used by a poor bastard like King Xian.

If Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han were to find this, with the power of these two emperors, they could make this water dragon halo truly impossible to steal.

After a moment of reflection, Fang Yun continued to explain to Partridge Whistle.

"The inner cave uses water from the Yellow River tributaries, while the water dragon halo uses water from all the rivers in the earth, including the tributaries of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and can even draw water from the sky."

"The water dragon in the Water Dragon Halo is shaped like an Inner Hidden Abyss magnified ten thousand times. Its outlet is a vortex of earth veins, making it look as if the water dragon is rising from the earth veins."

"The halo in the Water Dragon Halo refers to the countless colorful clouds and rainbows produced by water vapor, which are called the Sun and Moon Halo and the Bridge of Immortals."

"The heavenly palace depicted on the Zhenling Register is mostly just because it is shrouded in colorful clouds and rainbows, making people think it is a celestial palace. If the Prince of Xian could really build a celestial palace, then he would be a true celestial being. Why would he need to build a tomb?"

"The Water Dragon Halo, also known as the True Dragon Eye, is faint and indistinct. It appears tangible at first glance but is invisible upon closer inspection. It is a place where vital energy gathers and the earth's veins are revealed. If one is buried in it, the life force will not be lost, and poisonous insects and spirits will not be able to invade."

At this moment, Partridge Whistle paused, then asked thoughtfully:

"Buried there? If that's the case, shouldn't King Xian have built his tomb underwater or by the water? Why would he have constructed a suspended celestial palace..."

Upon hearing this, Fang Yun was surprised. His brother-in-law was quite clever; he had guessed it right away.

"That's right. Since it's a water dragon halo, with the water dragon below and the halo above, the tomb must be connected to the water dragon below and protected by the celestial halo above. Only then can it be called the aura of an immortal!"

"And the King Xian himself was a feng shui master."

"So I suspect that the fairy palace of King Xian was just a decoy."

"His true tomb must be built near the water dragon. Even if it's not underwater, the tomb must be connected to the water dragon to form a water palace, so that he can stand on the divine dragon and wear the cloud crown on his head!"

After listening, Partridge Whistle suddenly understood, feeling that all the mysteries in his heart had been solved.

The reason why it is said that the tomb of King Xian can never be robbed is because poisonous insects and evil spirits cannot get close, and tomb robbers cannot break through the water dragon!

If the water dragon halo is indeed ten thousand times larger than the hidden water veins, and the tomb of King Xian is indeed hidden in the water, then there is truly nowhere to enter the tomb of King Xian.

Thinking about it this way, Partridge Whistle's heart sank again.

"Don't worry too much, there's always a way out."

“The tomb of King Xian should not be in the water dragon halo, otherwise how did King Xian build the tomb in there? That was more than two thousand years ago, it would be difficult to move even a stone, let alone build a tomb in the water.”

Seeing Partridge Whistle's gloomy face and declining fighting spirit, Fang Yun gave him another reminder.

"Brother Fang is absolutely right. I was just too anxious."

Partridge Whistle's eyes lit up, and he breathed a sigh of relief; he was truly worried and confused.

It seems that the tomb of the King Xian is not located within the water vein of Shuilongyun; at most, the tomb is connected to the water vein of Shuilongyun.

After chatting with Partridge Whistle for a while, Fang Yun also felt sleepy. After replenishing the insect repellent around him, he hugged the flowers and slowly fell asleep.

.............

The next morning, the group of four got up early, gathered their equipment, had a simple breakfast, and then ventured deeper into the Insect Valley.

Once we got here, the map made of human skin was no longer of any use.

Besides the two barriers of poisonous fog, everything that appears on the human skin map is also on the Tomb Suppression Register.

It is likely that the person who drew this human skin map was not a high-ranking official under King Xian, and knew nothing about the situation inside the poisonous fog barrier, only the general outline of the area surrounding King Xian's tomb.

However, there is one thing in common: the human skin map is marked with a toad, which indicates the closest place to the tomb of King Xian. The tomb map also has this toad mark.

Moreover, two toads are carved on the Zhenling Catalogue, one in the Insect Valley and the other outside the Tomb of King Xian, which are very close to the Heavenly Gate of the Celestial Palace carved on the Zhenling Catalogue.

And this toad was precisely Fang Yun's target.

The tomb of King Xian is surrounded by two rings of poisonous fog, but the fog is not without gaps, otherwise how could his descendants worship and pray for him after his death?

The toad served as a marker to avoid the poisonous fog, which is why the artist marked it with a toad.

The journey was relatively safe.

Although there are countless poisonous insects and ferocious beasts in this tropical rainforest, ordinary poisonous insects and ferocious beasts dare not approach Fang Yun at all, and there is no need to use Qilin blood.

After walking for about two hours, the group found a ruin.

This site is a relic of a spirit path, which means that a path was opened in front of the tomb, and stone pillars were erected as markers, with the tomb owner sitting in the center to observe the world.

As long as you keep walking along this sacred path, you will get closer and closer to the tomb of King Xian.

Seeing that the sacred path had appeared, Fang Yun and his group of 1.3 did not linger, but continued to venture deeper into the rainforest along the remnants of the sacred path.

After walking for nearly an hour, and passing through a grove of flowering trees, the group arrived at the entrance to a valley.

"This is it!"

Upon seeing the entrance to the valley, Fang Yun's lips curled into a smile.

At the entrance to the valley, there are two bare stone mountains on the left and right, each with an eye drawn on it in black ink.

However, this eye is not the Muchen Pearl, but a complete human eye, with an eye socket, eyelashes, and pupil. Its gaze is majestic and profound, and it is very lifelike and expressive.

"There's something wrong with the rocks!"
