"So it's Zhujiuyin. No wonder it's so huge. Luckily it's just a statue, otherwise, none of us would be enough to fill its teeth."

Ding Yudie is right. Although Zhu Jiuyin is flammable and can be ignited with just a light, it is not difficult to deal with.

But at this moment, they were underwater, making it almost impossible for them to light the Candle Nine Yin.

"Everyone split up to search for clues about the Ku Kingdom's tomb."

Zhang Hao communicated with Yi Sa and Ding Yudie using sign language.

Both of them are water demons, and they have their own underwater communication methods that are far more effective than sign language.

However, Zhang Hao didn't understand it, so they rarely used it and instead used more complicated sign language.

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie nodded and swam to opposite sides.

Zhang Hao swam to the bronze pillar in the middle of the temple and looked up at Zhu Jiuyin, which was coiled on the bronze pillar.

Lifelike, just like the real thing.

Suddenly he noticed that there was a mechanism on Zhu Jiuyin's mouth.

Through the gap between their lips, one could see what appeared to be a round ball inside.

Zhang Hao looked down at his feet and saw eight bronze platforms, each half a meter high and half a meter long, surrounding the bronze pillar.

In the center of each platform is a fist-sized hole, about the same size as the round bead in Zhu Jiuyin's mouth.

"Zhang Hao, have you discovered anything?"

At this moment, Yi Sa and Ding Yudie finished checking the other areas and came to the middle to meet up with Zhang Hao.

Since they asked if anything was discovered, it means they didn't find anything.

Zhang Hao pointed to the platform below, then to Zhu Jiuyin's mouth.

They both immediately understood.

"That bead is used to activate the mechanism, but there are eight identical bronze platforms below. I think the result would be different if the bead fell into the hole of each platform, right?"

Zhang Hao smiled slightly: "That's right, this mechanism is built using the principles of Qimen Dunjia and the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams."

The eight holes correspond to the eight gates, with only one corresponding to the gate of life and the other seven to the gates of death.

"If the bronze bead in Zhu Jiuyin's mouth falls into the hole corresponding to the Death Gate, it will trigger a dangerous mechanism, and he will almost certainly die."

"What can we do? All eight holes are exactly the same, and we have no clues. We have no way of determining where the exit is!"

"SaSa, have you forgotten who the boss is? Is there anything he can't do?!"

Yi Sa then realized that he and Ding Yudie had always relied on ancestral tablets to guide them when searching for tombs, and they had no knowledge of feng shui numerology such as Qimen Dunjia, Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, and Zhang Hao had not demonstrated it.

So she subconsciously assumed that Zhang Hao wouldn't either.

Zhang Hao controlled his body to fall down in the water until he landed on the floor.

"Yi Sa, go to the third platform clockwise. Ding Yudie, go to the third one on the right."

Once the two of them were in position, Zhang Hao began to operate the equipment.

"Yi Sa, three on the left, four on the right!"

"Ding Yudie, you're all over the place!"

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie began to operate according to Zhang Hao's instructions after receiving them.

Each time the platform is pushed and rotated against the bronze pillar, it makes a "click" sound.

Once they're done, we'll switch to another station.

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie took turns four times. When they finished the last step as Zhang Hao instructed, they heard the rumbling sound of the machinery turning.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Jiuyin's mouth slowly opened, and a bronze bead the size of a fist rolled out of its mouth, falling precisely into the hole in the middle of the platform below.

At that moment, everyone felt a sudden, enormous suction force coming from beneath their feet.

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie had no strength to resist the suction force and were sucked into a black hole that suddenly appeared on the ground.

Zhang Hao, however, resisted the suction force by relying on his own powerful strength.

After Yi Sa and Ding Yudie entered, the black hole in the floor closed instantly, and the suction disappeared.
