Chapter 76 Demon God's Tomb Opens
Chen Yu stared at the three large characters "Demon God's Tomb" on the stone tablet. The characters were mottled, as if they had been scratched by the claws of some wild beast, revealing an ancient and vicissitudes of life.
He touched the stone tablet with his hand and felt it was cold. A chill ran along his fingertips and went straight into his heart, making him shiver uncontrollably.
"This place is so gloomy and creepy just looking at it." Liu Rumei rubbed her arms and said with a look of disgust, tightening her cloak.
The cloak was handed to her by Princess Su Yue. Although Princess Su Yue didn't talk much, she was thoughtful and always took care of everyone silently.
The cloak is light blue with a few white lotus flowers embroidered on it, and it looks particularly simple and elegant in the dim light.
Zi Yan's mother coughed a few times, her face pale, but her eyes were resolute: "The Demon God's Tomb is right here. As long as we can find the Demon God's Sword, we will have hope."
As she spoke, she took out a black jade pendant from her bosom. On the jade pendant was carved a coiled dragon, which looked lifelike.
"This is the key to open the Demon God's Tomb." Zi Yan's mother handed the jade pendant to Zi Yan, "Only those with the royal blood of the demon clan can use it."
Zi Yan took the jade pendant and nodded solemnly. She took a deep breath, walked to the stone tablet, and placed the jade pendant on it.
A dazzling white light flashed, and the words on the stone tablet suddenly lit up, making a buzzing sound.
The ground began to shake, and the stone tablet slowly cracked, revealing a pitch-black hole.
A cold wind blew out of the cave, mixed with the smell of decay, which made people feel nauseous.
"This is the entrance to the Demon God's Tomb." Zi Yan's mother looked at the cave entrance and said in a serious tone.
"Let's go in." Chen Yu said, and walked into the cave first.
Zi Yan followed closely behind, and Zi Yan's mother, Liu Rumei, and Princess Su Yue also walked in.
Inside the cave entrance is a narrow passage. The walls on both sides are engraved with strange runes, emitting a faint light.
The corridor was cold and damp, and the air was filled with a strong musty smell, making it difficult to breathe.
Chen Yu took out a night pearl from his cloth bag and illuminated the road ahead.
The night pearl emits a soft light, illuminating the passage.
"This bead is quite bright." Liu Rumei's eyes lit up as she looked at the night pearl.
"This is a night-shining pearl that can provide light." Chen Yu explained.
"Oh." Liu Rumei nodded, and turned her gaze to the surrounding walls, "What kind of weird talismans are these?
It looks creepy."
"These are demonic characters, containing some ancient spells."
Zi Yan's mother explained, "It is said that these spells can protect the Demon God's Tomb and prevent outsiders from invading."
"Then shouldn't we be careful not to trigger any mechanisms?"
Liu Rumei said with some concern.
"Don't worry, I will protect you." Chen Yu patted Liu Rumei's shoulder and comforted her.
They walked along the corridor. It was so quiet that they could only hear their own footsteps and breathing.
As they walked, they came to a huge stone door. On the stone door were two ferocious demon heads carved, which looked very scary.
"How do I open this door?" Liu Rumei asked, looking at the stone door.
Zi Yan walked forward and placed her hand on one of the demon heads.
The eyes of the demon head suddenly lit up, emitting red light.
The stone door slowly opened with a dull sound.
Behind the stone gate is a spacious hall with many sarcophagi placed in it. Various patterns are carved on the sarcophagi, which look very ancient.
"This is the main tomb chamber of the Demon God's Tomb." Zi Yan's mother said, "The Demon God's Sword should be here."
Chen Yu looked around and found that the hall was empty and there was no trace of the Demon Sword.
"Where is the Demon Sword?" Chen Yu asked.
"It should be hidden in a sarcophagus." Zi Yan's mother said, "We have to look for it one by one."
Chen Yu nodded and began to check the sarcophagi. He opened them one by one, but found that they were all empty, with no trace of the Demon Sword.
"Strange, why is the Demon Sword not here?" Chen Yu said with a frown.
"Could it be hidden somewhere else?" Liu Rumei said.
"It's possible." Zi Yan's mother nodded, "Let's look carefully."
They searched the hall carefully but still couldn't find the Demon Sword.
"Isn't the Demon Sword here?" Chen Yu said with some disappointment.
At this moment, the system prompt sounded suddenly: "Congratulations to the host for triggering the hidden mission, exploring the Demon God's Tomb, and rewarding the system upgrade!"
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. The system upgrade meant he could gain new skills and items.
"System, what are the requirements for upgrading?" Chen Yu asked in his heart.
"Explore the Demon God's Tomb and find the Demon God's Sword." The system replied.
"It seems that the Demon Sword is really here." Chen Yu said in his heart.
"It seems that we have to keep looking." Chen Yu said to Zi Yan and others.
There was a hint of excitement in his tone. The temptation of system upgrade was so great that it filled him with motivation.
Zi Yan nodded and clenched the jade pendant in her hand. The jade pendant became slightly warm, as if guiding the direction.
"I think this jade pendant seems to have some special guidance." She pointed to an inconspicuous corner in the middle of the hall, "Let's go over there and take a look."
Chen Yu looked in the direction Zi Yan pointed. There were some old weapons and armor piled up in the corner. They were covered with dust and looked like no one had touched them for a long time.
"What could be over there?" Liu Rumei looked skeptical. She fanned the dust in front of her with her hand and coughed a few times. "The dust here is so thick that it could bury a person."
"Go and take a look and you'll know." Chen Yu said, leading the way to the corner.
Zi Yan's mother and Princess Su Yue followed behind him. Although Liu Rumei was reluctant, she had no choice but to go with them.
Most of the weapons and armor in the corners were rusted, and some were even rotten and would break at the slightest touch.
Chen Yu carefully avoided the weapons that were about to fall apart and carefully examined each piece of armor.
Suddenly, Chen Yu's eyes stopped on a black armor.
This armor is different from other armors. It has no rust. Instead, it emits a faint black glow, which looks very mysterious.
Chen Yu reached out and touched the armor. It was cold, and a strange energy flowed through his arm and throughout his body.
He felt his body was full of strength, as if he had endless energy.
"This armor..." Chen Yu's heart moved, he felt that this armor was not simple.
He looked at the armor carefully and found that there was a groove on the chest of the armor, the shape of which was exactly the same as the jade pendant in Zi Yan's hand.
"Zi Yan, try putting the jade pendant in." Chen Yu said to Zi Yan.
Zi Yan walked forward and placed the jade pendant into the groove on the chest of the armor.
The jade pendant fits the groove perfectly and fits seamlessly.
A dazzling white light flashed, and the entire hall shook.
The weapons and armor in the corner were scattered on the ground, revealing a hidden passage.
The passage was pitch black and I couldn't see anything.
"It seems that this is the road leading to the Demon Sword." Chen Yu said.
He took out a few fluorescent sticks from his cloth bag, lit them up, and threw them into the passage.
The glow sticks emitted a green light, illuminating part of the passage.
The passage was still cold and damp, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Chen Yu took a deep breath and led the way into the passage. Zi Yan followed closely behind, and so did Zi Yan's mother, Liu Rumei, and Princess Su Yue.
The passage was very long and they walked for a long time but still did not reach the end.
"Why is this passage so long?" Liu Rumei asked impatiently, "How long will we have to walk?"
"It's almost here, it should be here soon." Chen Yu comforted.
As they walked, they suddenly heard the sound of flowing water ahead.
"Is there water ahead?" Chen Yu's heart moved.
They quickened their pace and walked forward.
Soon, they came to an underground river. The water was crystal clear and the riverbed was covered with colorful pebbles.
On the other side of the river, there is a huge cave, which emits dazzling golden light.
"The Demon Sword should be in that cave." Zi Yan's mother said, pointing to the cave.
"But how do we get across?" Liu Rumei asked, looking at the underground river. "The river is so deep, and we don't have a boat."
Chen Yu took out an inflatable kayak from the cloth bag, inflated it skillfully, and placed it in the underground river.
"Use this." Chen Yu said, pointing to the kayak.
"What is this?" Liu Rumei looked at the kayak curiously.
"This is a kayak that can be used to cross the river," Chen Yu explained.
"Oh." Liu Rumei nodded, still puzzled, "Can this thing really float on the water?"
"Of course." Chen Yu said, and got into the kayak first.
Zi Yan, Zi Yan's mother, Liu Rumei and Princess Su Yue also got in.
Chen Yu took out a folding paddle and began rowing. The kayak slowly moved towards the other side.
The water flow in the underground river was very gentle, and Chen Yu easily paddled the kayak to the other side.
They went ashore and walked into the cave.
The cave is magnificent, with countless gems inlaid on the walls, emitting dazzling light.
In the center of the cave, there is a huge altar with a golden sword inserted on it.
The sword has a slender blade and a lifelike golden dragon is carved on the hilt, exuding a powerful aura.
"This is the Demon Sword!" Zi Yan's mother said excitedly.
Chen Yu looked at the Demon Sword, his heart filled with excitement. He knew that as long as they got this sword, they could command the entire demon clan and quell this chaos.
Suddenly, the system prompt sounded again: "Congratulations host, the system upgrade is complete!"
