In a moment, the sixteen chains burned off and the sixteen demon soul beads were burned.

At the same time, the tomb of the ancestor of mankind trembled slightly, and a magnificent aura spread out.

Zhao Mu felt his scalp tingling instantly and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

The horror of this aura was something he had never seen before.

It’s like entering the realm of death.

But now that we are here, how can we stop?

Zhao Mu resolutely flew towards the tomb of the ancestor of mankind and arrived at the main gate of the palace.

"what!!"

Just as Zhao Mu was about to push the door open, a shrill scream came from inside the palace.

No...why is it still haunted?

Zhao Mu swallowed and gently pushed the palace door.

The door was ajar, and a slight push opened a gap.

Zhao Mu took a look inside first.

Everything seemed normal, but it felt a bit eerie and the light was dim. There were many statues standing in two rows in the hall, all of which looked human-like.

Although it is a statue, the pressure is still very strong.

Zhao Mu took the lead and walked into the hall cautiously.

Su Qianqian and the others followed closely.

It must be said that the ladies were quite courageous and although they were nervous, they had no intention of backing down.

Not to mention Su Qianqian, who had a calm and composed expression from beginning to end.

The Queen of Heaven has seen all kinds of scenes.

After entering the hall, everyone began to carefully observe these human-shaped statues.

There are twenty-four statues in total, and each figure has a different expression, but without exception they all reveal the demeanor of a strong person.

"Are these... the twenty-four divine generals under the command of the ancestor of mankind?" Jiang Muyao exclaimed.

"What's the story?" Zhao Mu asked.

"Records about the Twenty-Four Divine Generals are very few in historical books. I only read about them in a single copy."

Jiang Muyao explained, "These twenty-four divine generals were the twenty-four top warriors of the Holy Xuan Continent back then. Each of them had reached the Divine King realm, and there were even several Divine Emperors. However, they were all conquered by Emperor Xuanyuan's charisma and voluntarily joined the human camp, assisting the human race in resisting the demon race and making great contributions to the rise of the human race."

"But after the human race achieved a resounding victory and drove the demon race into the abyss, these twenty-four divine generals seemed to have evaporated overnight, vanishing from sight and leaving no record of them."

"Emperor Xuanyuan must have great trust in the Twenty-Four Divine Generals, otherwise he wouldn't have placed their statues in his tomb to guard the souls of the dead."

Zhao Mu frowned slightly.

Are these really just stone carvings?

"Ah~"

Zhao Mu was about to take a closer look at these stone sculptures when he suddenly heard a shrill scream.

The source of the sound seemed to be under my feet.

This time Zhao Mu heard it clearly, it was a woman's voice.

Could it be Xuanyuan Yadan?

"It sounds so miserable and creepy. Should we go and see?" Huang Xi said nervously.

"Follow me."

Zhao Mu no longer had time to observe the statue. He immediately opened his Supreme Divine Eyes to look for traces of Xuanyuan Yada's aura and followed it all the way.

However, the internal structure of this ancestral tomb was extremely complex and changeable. As Zhao Mu walked, he not only lost Xuanyuan Yada's breath, but also didn't know where he was.

"Why are there dead ends everywhere? It feels like there is a force preventing us from going any further." Tushan Mengdie muttered.

As soon as she finished speaking, Tushan Mengdie's expression suddenly changed. She walked to a wall, activated the power of her soul, and wrote a line of mysterious runes on the wall.

The rune quickly disappeared into the wall.

But then, a crack appeared in the wall, revealing a staircase leading to the lower level.

"What's going on? Fox sister, you have this ability?" Huang Xi asked in surprise.

Tushan Mengdie was in a trance for a moment, she knew that it was the Fox Ancestor who took action.

"I learned a little bit about runes before." She made up an excuse.

The existence of Fox Grandma is of great importance, and she doesn't want anyone to know about it except Zhao Mu.

Although Zhao Mu was surprised, he soon felt relieved.

The fox ancestor Mu Jiuling is also an ancestor god.

An existence that is on par with the ancestor of mankind, Xuanyuan Wushi.

"Let's go, don't worry about this for now."

Zhao Mu said, walking down the stairs first.

When they reached the lower level, Tushan Mengdie deliberately slowed down her pace, grabbed Zhao Mu's arm, and whispered in his ear, "Grandma Fox Ancestor asked me to tell you that something is amiss in this Human Ancestor's tomb. She sensed the Human Ancestor's aura, and it seems he's still alive!"

Zhao Mu's expression paused.

"Got it. Thank Senior Mu Jiuling for me."

"Okay... Huh? You actually know the real name of Fox Ancestor Grandma. I don't think I've ever mentioned it to you."

"Don't worry about the details."

Zhao Mu patted Tushan Mengdie on the shoulder and continued walking forward.

At the end of the corridor, an ancient bronze door blocked the way.

Zhao Mu tried to push, but there was no response.

At this time, Tushan Mengdie walked forward again and took action again, writing a rune on the bronze door.

In an instant, the bronze door opened automatically.

Tushan Mengdie turned around and looked at Zhao Mu meaningfully.

Of course, Zhao Mu knew that the person who was controlling Tushan Mengdie's body now was the Fox Ancestor.

He felt a little guilty subconsciously, but then he thought, you, Mu Jiuling, are my, Zhao Mu's, legal wife, how can I feel guilty?

He looked back openly and took Tushan Mengdie's hand: "Madam is great."

Tushan Mengdie was stunned at first, then shocked, and quickly blinked at Zhao Mu frantically to signal him to stop talking nonsense.

Zhao Mu smiled, pushed open the bronze door and walked in.

Behind the door is a huge patio structure space.

A black square stone tablet stands in the center of the patio.

Zhao Mu walked into the fence and looked down, and found that the patio was very deep. He couldn't see the bottom at a glance. Below was a layer of circular corridors. The woman's screams came from the bottom.

At this moment, you can still faintly hear the heavy breathing of a woman coming from below.

Su Qianqian walked to the front of the stone tablet and was carefully observing the inscription on it.

After just two glances, Su Qianqian's face showed shock.

Something that could shock even Su Qianqian was truly astonishing.

"What's written on it?"

Su Qianqian calmed down and said, "This is the message Emperor Xuanyuan left before his death. It says that he has found the secret of immortality, but the price is too high. Once used, one will become an immortal corpse, lose their self, and sink into eternal night. He left this message to warn future generations not to pursue immortality. That power belongs to the Star God. Anyone who tries to take life from the Star God will be punished most severely..."

"So... immortality is impossible?"

"Do not."

Su Qianqian shook her head and said, "Emperor Xuanyuan left behind a true method for immortality, but this method... is too difficult."

"what way?"

"Kill the Star God and replace him."
