System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

After merging with the blood corpse, Zhang Hao turned around and touched the bronze cauldron in front of the stone coffin. With a thought, he put the bronze cauldron into his storage space.

The bronze tripod is a treasure; everyone who sees it is envious. However, because of its enormous size, it is impossible to take it out, so no one pays attention to it.

But Zhang Hao is different; he has storage space, so taking the bronze cauldron out is a piece of cake for him.

After doing all that, he quickened his pace and caught up with the group.

Behind the stone coffin is a tomb passage, which is about one meter wide and two meters high.

Uncle Wu and Pan Zi saw that the tomb passage was of such a large scale.

"I never expected a Warring States period tomb to be this large. Could there be blood corpses guarding the entrance?"

"Third Master, there are blood corpses guarding the entrance, the monsters inside the tomb are probably even more powerful!"

Uncle Wu nodded: "That's right, Panzi, you need to keep a close eye on Xiaohao and Tianzhen, and make sure they don't get into any danger."

Pan Zi gave an awkward smile: "Third Master, it's fine if you ask me to protect Little Third Master, but as for Xiao Hao, with his strength, he doesn't need my protection. It's good enough if I don't hold him back."

"That's not how it works. After all, it's their first time going into a tomb, and they have no experience. Just keep a close eye on them."

"Yes, Third Master!"

Pan Zi responded and carefully followed Zhang Hao and Wu Tianzhen.

As they spoke, the group reached the end of the tomb passage, where there was a white jade door, as long and wide as the passage itself.

Two black statues were also placed on either side of the Jade Gate.

"Why is this jade gate open?"

"It seems someone came here before us!"

"Let's hurry inside and check, before they take all the treasures away."

Da Kui saw that the Jade Gate was open and was eager to go in to search for treasure.

Uncle Wu frowned upon seeing this: "I sent you here to protect Xiao Hao and Tianzhen, but look at you, such a big guy, you're paralyzed as soon as you see a blood corpse, you're useless."

Da Kui realized he had offended Uncle Wu, so he had no choice but to keep quiet.

Even so, he still couldn't let go of the treasures in the tomb, and kept winking at Pan Zi.

"Third Master, what's our next step?"

Pan Zi was also undecided for a moment, so he had to ask Uncle Wu for advice.

"Go in and take a look. There are still fingerprints on the jade gate, so it must have been opened recently. Maybe those people haven't left yet."

"Yes, Third Master."

Pan Zi responded and took the entrenching tool in his hand. He slowly pushed open the jade door with one hand and then pointed the searchlight at the inside of the jade door.

The tomb chamber behind Yumen is quite large, with a stone coffin placed in the middle and a side chamber on each side, filled with burial objects.

Suddenly his expression changed.

"Third Master, something's not right! There are so many coffins inside!"

"Oh?"

Uncle Wu walked to the Jade Gate and looked into the tomb chamber. He saw seven coffins arranged in a certain pattern inside.

"This is the first time I've seen so many people buried in an ancient tomb. Let's go in and take a look."

As he spoke, he went inside.

"One, two, three... seven, there are seven coffins in total, and they are placed in the same direction as the Big Dipper in the sky. It turns out to be the Seven Star Suspicious Coffins."

After Wu Sanshu clearly saw the number and location of the coffins, he understood the trick.

"Only one of these coffins is real; the other six are filled with deadly traps and mechanisms. Anyone who opens one will die instantly."

"Third Master, how can we confirm that the coffin is real and the others are fake?"

Panzi has already checked them; every coffin looks exactly the same, and there's no way to tell them apart.

"Is it possible that all seven coffins are fake, and that they are all traps?"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Wu gave Zhang Hao a thumbs up: "Although this situation is unlikely to happen in general, it is not absolutely impossible. It is good that you have this kind of thinking. The more you think, the faster you will learn."

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Suddenly, a strange sound rang out from inside the tomb.

"Who is it? Who is playing tricks?"

Pan Zi gripped the entrenching tool tightly, turning the searchlight in the direction the sound came from.

"The sound came from inside the coffin!"

"Panzi, go over and see what's going on."

"Yes, Third Master."

Pan Zi responded and carefully approached the coffin from which the sound had come.

The closer he got, the faster the rhythm of the sounds from inside the coffin became.

The sound of "thump, thump, thump" kept coming from inside.

When he got closer, he found that the coffin was open, the lid was not closed tightly, and there was a gap of about ten centimeters at one end.

Pan Zi mustered his courage and leaned closer, shining the light through the crack into the coffin.

"Shh!"

Just then, a bloody, mangled hand suddenly emerged from inside.

The palm was the size of an adult's hand, but it lacked skin; flesh, blood, and bones were clearly visible.

The flesh on my palm slid down and dripped like melted chocolate.

That sound was the sound of flesh and blood falling from the body into the coffin.

"Blood, blood corpse!"

Pan Zi's face turned deathly pale the moment he saw the palm, and he retreated in fright.

"What, a blood corpse?"

Upon hearing the words "blood corpse," Uncle Wu immediately stepped in front of Zhang Hao and Wu Tianzhen, drawing his gun and aiming it at the coffin.

"It's a blood-soaked person!"

Zhang Qilin suddenly appeared from the darkness and said something.

"Hey buddy, are you sure it's a bloody person?"

Uncle Wu asked uncertainly.

Zhang Qilin nodded.

Blood people are unkillable monsters that have been poisoned by blood corpses. They also have corpse poison, but it is not nearly as potent as that of blood corpses.

Moreover, they are much slower and their bodies are not invulnerable to weapons, making them much easier to deal with than blood zombies.

"That's right. If the coffin contained a blood corpse, how could it still be trapped inside and unable to get out?"

Hearing that there was a bloody figure inside the coffin, Panzi went closer to take a look. He saw that the bloody hand kept trying to pry open the coffin lid, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open it.

"Hey, why does this blood-covered person have blond hair and blue eyes? He looks like a foreigner?"

"is it?"

Uncle Wu and the others, out of curiosity, went over to take a look and found that there was indeed a foreigner in the coffin.

"Panzi, Da Kui, open the coffin and check the situation."

Pan Zi and Da Kui worked together to push open the coffin lid, revealing a complete blood-soaked figure.

Although he was still wearing clothes, they were tattered and riddled with holes, and it was as if his skin had been peeled off, with flesh and bones clearly visible.

As soon as the coffin was removed, the blood-soaked man prepared to jump out of the stone coffin. Before he could even make a move, Zhang Qilin chopped off his head with a single stroke, killing him instantly.

"Judging from his clothes, he must be a foreign mercenary."

Pan Zi used an entrenching tool to pry open the clothes on the blood-soaked corpse, revealing the brand label underneath.

"This is the kind of equipment that foreign mercenaries like to use. It seems that our previous team came from abroad."

Pan Zi continued to rummage through the bloody, mangled corpse, when he suddenly noticed a faint light flickering beneath it.
