People are robbing tombs: Get the black gold ancient sword at the beginning

After witnessing the horrifying events unfolding on Chen Xiao, the Queen of Jingjue exhaled a deep breath, staring intently at him, and asked in a low voice, her voice trembling with emotion and a hint of sobs.

"My husband, have you successfully taken that step?"

Upon hearing Queen Jingjue's words, Wu Chan Caiwei and Shirley Yang, who had not yet reacted, both looked at Chen Xiao with reluctance, and their expressions became solemn.

Although the Queen of Jingjue and the other women already knew that with Chen Xiao's terrifyingly rapid cultivation rate, he might one day break through the limits of martial arts and enter the legendary realm of immortals, ascending alone and leaving their world!

It is precisely because they are aware of this that the Queen of Jingjue and other women have been working hard to catch up with Chen Xiao over the years.

Every day, I strive to improve my skills and never slack off for even a moment!

If she could catch up with Chen Xiao through her own efforts and ascend to immortality along with her husband, that would be the best outcome.

If they fail to catch up, they must have enough strength to take over and deter Chen Xiao after their husbands leave, so as to prevent a huge upheaval!

As for the scale of turmoil that would be triggered if Chen Xiao were to disappear?

Does Chen Xiao really think that the title "Master Chen" that others respectfully address him for is still only within the small circle of tomb raiding, just like before?

If Chen Xiao were to truly ascend and leave this realm, not to mention the Wang family, who have been secretly opposing the Nine Gates, the Nine Gates, which have only recently united for a little over a decade, would likely crumble once again, with each family continuing to fight amongst themselves in secret.

In addition, what is even more terrifying are the high-ranking figures in all the countries of this world, as well as the countless top financial families that hold enormous wealth.

As for the specific reason, there is nothing else...

This is because, over the past decade or so, these people have been cultivated by Chen Xiao under his scheme, using the immense allure of the Longevity Pill to become puppets who secretly solve all the problems Chen Xiao faces.

If Chen Xiao, this pillar of strength, were still here, the Nine Gates, along with all these influential figures scattered across the globe, would be like family and friends on Chen Xiao's starship, helping each other out. Not a single one of them would dare to assassinate him!

But if Chen Xiao suddenly disappeared, the political figures and top financial leaders of various countries who have been relying on the improved version of the longevity pill provided by Chen Xiao to keep themselves from dying would probably all be in an uproar in an instant!

If any one of these issues is not handled properly, the Third World War on Earth will break out immediately.

This is the terrifying power and influence that Chen Xiao now wields in this comprehensive tomb raiding world!

…………

Noticing the extremely solemn expressions on the faces of the three women, including the Queen of Jingjue, Chen Xiao shook his head with a helpless smile: "I have only barely taken another half step forward. My overall strength is at most that of a pseudo-god. I am still far from the ascension to immortality and ascension to heaven recorded in ancient books."

However, although Chen Xiao said this, he actually had deep doubts about the immortality and ascension described in many ancient books.

In Chen Xiao's original idea, whether it was the human immortals, earth immortals, heaven immortals or corpse-dissolving immortals recorded in the records, after breaking through the martial arts limit and entering the immortal realm, they should all have been guided to a higher plane of this world and thus ascended to the upper realm.

However, after the system underwent a major upgrade and Chen Xiao successfully broke through to the martial arts realm, the system did not prompt him to become an immortal but rather a so-called pseudo-god. This led Chen Xiao to have a completely new guess about the definition of immortals and the upper realm in this comprehensive tomb raiding world!

That is to deny in one's heart the possibility that the so-called upper realm is a more powerful independent space!

After all, if the Upper Realm is indeed an independent space as the legends say, then how many more immortals have been recorded there during the billions of years that the entire Blue Star has been in existence?

Then why is it that only the Snake God and the possible deities behind the Queen Mother of the West's kingdom are able to descend from the upper realm?

Snake god? False God?

Upper bound? Imaginary space?

If the so-called Immortal Realm is the pseudo-god realm with Chen Xiao's current strength, then the snake god who was above the tenth level of pseudo-god in his previous life, according to the current system panel, should be at the level of 'god' after removing the 'pseudo' from pseudo-god!

The serpent god, who is a 'god', was severely injured and fled to Earth on the verge of death. From this, we can deduce two more clues.

First, if someone could bring a creature of the Serpent God's level to the brink of death and force it to flee, then the person who made the move must be stronger than the Serpent God!

This also proves from another perspective that in this comprehensive tomb raiding world, in addition to the known snake god, there are many more terrifying gods or creatures.

Secondly, according to the ancient records of the Demon Kingdom, the dying serpent god descended to Earth from the outside world.

For humans, who were still in ancient times and had no deep understanding of the universe, could their account of their arrival not be the same as what later generations imagined—breaking through the barrier between the upper and lower realms to come to this world—but rather the serpent god coming from the vast universe outside of Earth?

If the Serpent God comes from the depths of the universe, then could the so-called Upper Realm refer to a place jointly established by a group of powerful individuals who broke free from the constraints of their respective planets and gathered together?

Because these powerful beings have different systems, races, histories, and cultures, different names have been given to the realm of those who have broken free from the constraints of planets and ventured into the universe.

Immortals in the Chinese system, gods in the serpent god system of the Demon Kingdom, and so on...

Could it simply be different names for powerful individuals who have broken free from the constraints of planets, referring to them in different systems?

This is similar to Odin in Norse mythology and the Jade Emperor in Chinese mythology. If both of them were real, would Odin dare to say that the Jade Emperor, who rules the Heavenly Court, is not an extremely powerful god? Similarly, could the Jade Emperor say that the god-king Odin is not an immortal?

Of course, all of this is currently only based on Chen Xiao's speculation. With the information Chen Xiao currently has, he is not yet able to uncover the truth.

To figure out all of this, besides uncovering all the secrets hidden behind the Western Queen Mother Kingdom, we can only wait until Chen Xiao breaks through to the tenth level of the Pseudo-God realm, and then see if we can get some new clues from the system.

…………

Shaking his head, temporarily putting all these miscellaneous thoughts aside, Chen Xiao then turned to the three women of Jingjue and Zhang Yi to ask if any unexpected situations had occurred during the week he was away.

"There's no major problem, except that the Wang family, those scoundrels, somehow found out that we're planning to take action against the Western Queen Mother's Kingdom."

Three days ago, a small team from the Wang family was sent to secretly infiltrate the area. However, as soon as they entered the outer forest of the Queen Mother of the West's kingdom, they coincidentally ran into the teams of Miss Aning, Miss Huoling, and Miss Wenjin.

Zhang Yi handed a cell phone to Chen Xiao and then began to speak softly.

When he recounted how the Wang family team collided with three teams of top experts from the Nine Gates led by A Ning, Huo Ling, and Chen Wenjin, and were then brutally humiliated.

Recalling the gruesome images of the Wang family team members that had been sent along with the message on his phone, even Zhang Yi, who was usually stern, couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Sigh, the beating was really too brutal. A small team of 12 people, three of them were thrown down on a big tree to be fed to ticks, and six of them had their hands and legs cut off and were tied together to be used as bait to lure poisonous snakes and pheasants on the outskirts of the Western Queen Mother's Kingdom.

As for the other three? Zhang Yi didn't see them in the photos that were sent, but in one of the photos, there were three huge palm prints, each half a meter deep, on the ground in the corner, and some faint traces of blood could be seen inside those three palm prints.

Therefore, it is easy to imagine what happened to the three people who were never seen again!

At the same time, Zhang Yi couldn't help but secretly marvel: "It's still better to work alongside the head of the family and the first wife!"

Although the missions are highly dangerous, they never hesitate when encountering enemies and simply strike to kill them!

At least it's better than those brothers on their mission in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West, who have to do work that tortures the enemy while also disgusting themselves.

"However, to turn six people into human pigs and use them as bait to lure snakes is such an extreme method..."

The three people who were slapped to death were likely killed by the ruthless and taciturn Miss Aning. Miss Huo Ling didn't have that kind of murderous intent. The three people who were hung from the tree and fed ticks, suffering pain but not death, were probably Miss Huo Ling's doing.

Of the three, the only one who dared to do it and didn't mind the trouble was the female assassin with awakened bloodline, Miss Wen Jin!

"Truly worthy of being the daughter of that ruthless Chen Pi Asi! Look at her methods and the way she wields the knife..."

Seeing Zhang Yi's rapidly changing expression and the occasional nodding, Chen Xiao glanced at the picture on his phone and instantly guessed what Zhang Yi was thinking. He shook his head helplessly.

Without changing his expression, he immediately notified everyone to pack their bags and prepare to leave the Kunlun Glacier for their next mission location, the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West.

However, he secretly decided that after returning from this trip, he would definitely have a heart-to-heart talk with Chen Pi, his father-in-law.

He was determined to find out why his originally gentle and charming wife, after only helping him, this old man, with the Chen family affairs for less than three months, seemed to have awakened a bloodline of murderous intent when she returned.

…………

Just as Chen Xiao began packing his belongings to prepare for his next journey, a stream flowed in the inner perimeter of the primeval jungle of the Western Queen Mother Kingdom.

Three stunningly beautiful women dressed in special operations uniforms stood on the bank, their gazes fixed on the center of the stream, where six human pigs, bound to a raft, waited silently.

The three women waited for about half an hour, but seeing that there was still no movement on the water or in the trees on both sides of the stream, the woman on the left hesitated and looked at the woman in the middle, saying softly, "Sister Wenjin, why don't we just give up and think of another way?"

The woman standing on the right nodded slightly upon hearing this and said, "I also think what Sister Aning said makes sense. Wenjin, your method is good, but it is still too difficult to lure out the snakes in the snake swamp by relying solely on the blood energy emitted by these six people."

Hearing Ah Ning and Huo Ling beside him expressing their disapproval of his plan, Chen Wenjin also wavered and murmured, "That shouldn't be the case. Back when the old man was fishing for blood corpses in Mirror Palace, this trick was clearly very effective."

The method used to cut off the limbs and bleed these six people was taught to them by the old man himself when they returned home. The position and force of the cuts were exactly the same. Why didn't they take the bait?

Could it be that the pheasant necks in this snake swamp are less sensitive to blood and qi than inanimate objects like blood corpses?

Just as Chen Wenjin was beginning to have serious doubts about the 'fishing skill' that his old man had passed down to him.

"Swish..."

"呲呲呲..."

Suddenly, the sounds of countless venomous snakes flicking their tongues and leaves rustling came from the surrounding dense forest!

"Blood really does double its effect when it comes into contact with water! Aning, Ling'er, I knew my old man wouldn't lie to me, didn't I? Look, the snake swarm is here now!" Chen Wenjin puffed out his chest and looked at the two of them proudly.

Ignoring Chen Wenjin, who was showing off to them, they sensed countless large and small pheasant necks rapidly converging on their current location.

Aning and Huoling quickly lifted Chen Wenjin, who was still grinning foolishly at them, on either side, and used their inner energy to flash into the air. At the same time, they used the Six Treasures Immortal Thief to isolate the auras of the three of them.

In just a few minutes, the bamboo raft located in the center of the stream below was completely enveloped by the necks of countless pheasants of all sizes, turning into a giant snake ball with a diameter of several meters!

Looking at the 'big ball of flesh' formed by countless tiny snakes beneath their feet, Aning, Chen Wenjin, and Huo Ling exchanged glances and then activated the three spatial rings that had been placed in advance on both sides of the stream.

With a blinding flash of white light, nearly 80% of the neck of the pheasant that had been fished out of the stream below by the blood mist vanished instantly.

As for the remaining 20%, after the three women raised their hands to retrieve their respective spatial rings, they casually each struck down with a palm, leveling the area within a radius of several hundred meters below!

"Mission accomplished! With so many pheasant necks collected, we'll raise them properly when we get back. They'll definitely be enough to feed the little dragon that Brother Xiao keeps in his spatial ring, saving us from having to throw the Ghost Cave Black Snake out of the Imaginary Space to feed it every time." Chen Wenjin laughed.
