Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

Zhang Zhenyi chuckled. He glanced at the people around him, then turned his gaze back to him and said, "In that case, we have to reciprocate. Let's go together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him laughed again, and at the same time, they seemed to have made a decision and walked towards the person they had chosen.

"In that case, I'll come too."

"Come on, we are all brothers, why be polite?"

"Don't take this opportunity to take revenge, brat."

"How can that be? I'm afraid you might do that."

"Tsk, if you don't know, you might think it's some kind of family reunion meeting."

"Alright, alright, stop wasting time and finish it quickly. It's not too late to talk after you're done."

……

As the voices of the people around them rose and fell, Zhang Shougui and Zhang Zhenyi raised their hands almost at the same time. The hatred they had for each other in the past no longer existed in their eyes, and was replaced by undisguised recognition and approval. They had already regarded each other as their own family, not just Zhang family members, but real family members.

They were all martial artists, so it was no problem for them to use speeds far exceeding those of ordinary people. When the cold light in their hands flickered under the candlelight, two slight crackling sounds were heard at the same time, and they laughed at the same time. However, the two laughs soon seemed to be blocked by something and gradually disappeared. Then they slowly sat down on the spot.

They could no longer speak, but they could still move their hands. Before their eyes were shrouded in darkness, they exchanged a few signs, which was the Zhang family's unique way of communication.

Zhang Zhenyi: Okay, we are equally matched.

Zhang Shougui: I’ll fight you for real later, and I won’t hold back.

As they slowly sat down, the people around them also moved, and their speed was just as fast. One after another, a sizzling sound was heard, accompanied by the sound of them sitting down one by one. All this was like a trial, unfolding in the space where the candlelight was gradually dimming. Occasionally, under the illumination of the candlelight, you could see extremely brightly colored mist spraying in the air.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Ahem... you bastard... can't you hurry up..."

"Really are……"

"Well, don't press me...you guy..."

"Who stepped on my foot? Get over here..."

"Look, bastard, watch out..."

……

Compared to the voice that had just become obviously low and vague, it was ringing in the space, but it gradually disappeared in just two breaths. The breathing sounds that had been rising and falling just now gradually decreased, until it finally returned to complete calm. Only the faint burning sound could be heard from the gradually dimming candlelight, and the crackling sound was very light.

When the last ray of light went out and white smoke began to rise with a hissing sound, this space filled with a strong fishy and sweet smell became completely cold and silent, as if no one had been here before.

……

"You little bastard, couldn't you aim when you fell just now? Look at you, you're lying on me?"

"Is this something I can control? I'm lucky I didn't sit on you to death!"

"Wow, what a novel experience."

"Huh, now we're the only ones who can see each other?"

"should be."

When it was daybreak outside, one brisk voice after another rang out in this already cold space. At the same time, dozens of inconspicuous dark blue halos appeared faintly in this completely dark space. They looked like human figures. If you look closely, you will find that they are exactly the same as the outlines of the people lying on the ground - ah, yes, they have become ghosts.

Looking at his completely transparent body, Zhang Shouxu's eyes flashed with curiosity, and Zhang Zhenxian next to him patted his arm directly.

Snapped.

A sound that only they could hear rang out. Zhang Zhenxian made an "oh" sound and looked curiously at the point of contact between his palm and Zhang Shouxu's arm. Seeing this, the others also curiously touched each other, as if they were children who had just begun to learn to touch things.

"Is this the spiritual state that Xiao Fubao mentioned? It feels like apart from the body—oh, there's no body, it seems like the soul—aside from the lightness of the soul, everything else seems quite similar to a human, right?"

Zhang Zhenxian patted Zhang Shouxu's arm and pinched his face, his tone full of curiosity. Zhang Daojun, who was standing beside him, said without even looking up, "That's because you touched a spirit like yourself. If you touch someone else, you won't be able to touch it. If you don't believe me, go touch our corpses; you won't be able to touch them at all."

Zhang Zhenxian uttered a "Hmm?" and then lowered his head to look at the bodies lying on the ground. He raised his foot and kicked at his own flesh, but it passed right through without any feeling.

"Huo, then we can only touch each other now. I remember Xiao Fubao said that ordinary people can't see us?"

Zhang Wuya, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but speak after seeing Zhang Zhenxian pass through his body. After he finished speaking, the others couldn't help but recall what Xiao Fubao had said before.

The time goes back to when Xiao Fubao had not left yet.

After it received the method transmitted by its perception ability, it said it directly in the group without even waiting.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: My previous method was to use my ability to make you sleep for a thousand years until the time of my sister. However, in order to save them both, my energy will be used up by then. What my perception ability just told me is a brand new method that does not require any energy at all. It’s just that this method may be a bit difficult for you.

At that time, little Fubao didn't wait for them to ask, but blurted out everything.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: You all have a certain energy in your body now. I think you all know the source of this energy. This is the most important point of the method we will use next. Without this energy, this method cannot be implemented.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: Although it may be a little scary, you must believe me, I will never lie to you.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: The solution is to abandon your physical bodies!

When Xiao Fubao mentioned this method, they started to make a commotion almost instantly, and Xiao Fubao also quickly gave an explanation.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: Before, when I said I would use energy to make you fall asleep, I actually meant using energy to create a small space for you so that you can stay in it and not be affected by the passage of time in the outside world. However, this requires a lot of energy. If you abandon your own body, it will be different. I don’t even need to use energy. I only need the energy in your own body.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: Normally, any living being will one day die of old age after a certain period of time. The same is true for the soul, which will gradually become weak. Although you are members of the immortal Zhang family, you only live a few hundred years longer than ordinary people, and you will also grow old one day. But you are special now because you have the special energy given by your sister.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: "Sister's energy can ensure that your souls will not become weak. It can even allow your souls to actively absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Spiritual energy is the energy used by cultivators. I believe you have heard of cultivators, right? They are the kind of cultivators in legends. However, cultivators generally have dedicated cultivation methods and physical bodies, and you do not. At most, you can only be considered ghost cultivators, or spiritual cultivators, and you are the kind without cultivation methods."

Group leader Xiao Fubao: I have to mention one thing here first. After losing your physical body, you will not be able to touch physical objects at first, nor can you eat food from living people, and you will not be able to be seen by living people. These are the initial conditions, and this is why I said that it will be difficult for you.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: The energy in your body now is not enough to sustain you to touch entities and eat. The most you can do is absorb spiritual energy. But you don’t have to worry. Once you absorb enough spiritual energy, you will be able to touch entities and appear, etc. You will know when you try it one by one.

Group leader Xiao Fubao: I’ve said too much. In short, as long as you abandon your physical body, the energy in your body will be able to condense your soul and turn it into a spiritual body. With the maintenance of that energy, your soul will not become weak with the passage of time. Instead, it will be attracted by the energy in your body and absorb all the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into your spiritual body. Think about it, if you absorb spiritual energy for a thousand years, how strong will you become after a thousand years?

Xiao Fubao's consecutive words shocked everyone, and the thousand years of practice that followed made them even more excited.

Isn't it just losing your body? Isn't it just turning into a ghost?!

As long as they can practice, as long as they can become stronger, sooner or later they will meet Ah Ling/Sister, and sooner or later they will be able to become her strongest supporter!!

At this point, everyone agreed, and the previous "trial" took place.

"Yes, Xiao Fubao has already said that living people can't see us, just like when we were still alive, we never saw ghosts."

After Zhang Wuya finished asking, someone quickly responded to him. Zhang Shouxu, looking at his own body, suddenly asked, "Will our corpses turn into zongzi in the future?"

This sudden question made everyone silent in an instant. They either subconsciously looked at their own bodies, or looked at Zhang Shouxu in shock, but no one spoke.

That's a good question, they can't guarantee it.
