A sharp broadsword came down, but it didn't harm Zhang Hao in the slightest.

This wasn't the first time he'd experienced something like this.

When they first encountered the mute army's ghost soldiers, the mute army general also probed Zhang Hao's location.

For some reason, they seemed to be able to sense Zhang Hao's presence.

Zhang Hao was puzzled, as humans and ghost soldiers existed in two different times and spaces.

Because of the overlapping of spaces, it's understandable that people can see them in some places, but how come they can all sense their own existence?

There must be something fishy about this.

Perhaps if we can find out the reason, we can understand why God needs the bodies of the Wu and Zhang families.

The ghost soldiers probed several times but found nothing amiss, so they returned.

Upon hearing the report, the leader of the tomb guardians of the Ku Kingdom glanced thoughtfully at Zhang Hao, shook his head, and led his men away.

"call……"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief only after they left.

At that moment, everyone's flashlights flickered a few times and then lit up again.

Upon seeing this, Wu Tianzhen guessed, "It must be that the appearance of the ghost soldiers caused a change in the magnetic field here, preventing the flashlight from turning on. Once the ghost soldiers left the magnetic field, it returned to normal."

"Fortunately, it was a close call. I've heard that after a person dies, their soul is trapped somewhere for some reason and keeps repeating the things they experienced before they died. It seems that there were originally tomb guardians in the Ku Kingdom's tomb, but they were killed by the ghostly army we saw!"

"Alright, let's continue searching for clues about the mutated water demons."

That's what they say, but what Zhang Hao really wants is to find the Qinling Divine Tree as soon as possible. He wants to know what level of existence the Divine Tree is.

Ideally, the divine tree should be merged on the spot, but that's probably not possible for now, as the All Things Fusion System is too low-level and hasn't unlocked anything more advanced than rare items.

Higher-level items will only be unlocked when the All Things Integration System reaches level 10.

Even so, Zhang Hao couldn't wait to see the Qinling Divine Tree, which was something that could be even more advanced than rare items!

The coffins at the bottom of the cave are arranged in a ring, going around and around the cave wall. At the very center is a circular coffin bed, also made of bronze, with a coffin on it that seems out of place.

"This place should be the coffin of the leader of the Ku Kingdom. Why is it so stingy? It's smaller than the other coffins, and it's just a piece of rotten wood!"

Zhang Hao and his group followed the passage between the coffins to the very center of the cave.

The fat man was greatly disappointed when he saw the dilapidated little coffin placed in the very center.

"It might have been destroyed by the army that entered here."

"That's certainly possible. There are signs of fighting on the other coffins at the bottom of the cave, so this coffin might have been damaged during the battle as well."

"It's over, all the burial goods inside must be gone too!"

The fat man was even more disappointed when he heard the crowd's comments.

However, since we were already there, we decided to go and check it out.

As Zhang Hao approached the central coffin, a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Ding! Rare item Kunlun Divine Wood detected!]

"what?"

Upon hearing the system notification, Zhang Hao was startled, for the Kunlun Divine Tree was one of the three divine trees recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

Legend has it that the Kunlun Divine Tree is a tree that grows upside down.

They only grow in the millennia-old ice deep within the Kunlun Mountains.

Interestingly, it grows with its roots at the top and its trunk at the bottom, growing only one inch every hundred years.

Because it absorbs the millennia-old cold air of Kunlun Mountain, it is used to preserve corpses, ensuring they will not decay for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

No special treatment is needed; the corpse inside will be exactly the same as when it died, just as it was when it was taken out.

Zhang Hao quickened his pace and walked to the coffin bed in the middle of the cave, then jumped up onto it.

The others followed suit and climbed onto the coffin bed.

At this moment, Ding Yudie exclaimed, "Look! Why is there another leaf on top?"

There was a tender green leaf on one corner of the coffin.

The fat man reached out and touched the leaves a few times, then suddenly his face lit up with ecstatic joy.

"My God, we've struck it rich this time!"

"I never imagined that such a legendary thing actually existed!"

Not only the fat man, but Wu Tianzhen also recognized the Kunlun sacred wood used to make the coffin.

"So it's the Kunlun Divine Tree! No wonder the temperature around me dropped a few degrees as soon as I got close!"

"The Ku people actually managed to find the Kunlun Divine Wood to make a coffin for their leader. I can't even imagine how precious the burial goods inside must be!"

"Open the coffin! Let's open the coffin quickly!"

The fat man couldn't wait to see if there were any remaining burial items in the coffin.

"Fatty, what's the rush? What if there are traps up there?"

After Wu Tianzhen finished speaking, she looked at Zhang Qilin, who was a professional at cracking mechanisms.

The term "faqiu" refers to someone with keen senses who can not only detect mechanisms but also easily crack them; it's always best to check first to be on the safe side.

Zhang Hao smiled. He had already checked using sound wave positioning and there were no mechanisms on the outside of the coffin.

As for what's inside the coffin, that remains unknown.

He discovered that although the coffin looked dilapidated, it was actually very well sealed.

Since the sound couldn't get in, he naturally had no idea what was going on inside.

However, Wu Tianzhen did not stop Zhang Qilin from checking again, since no one knew that he had the ability to locate objects with sound waves.

Zhang Qilin extended two long, slender fingers and placed them on the coffin, then walked around it once.

He nodded to Wu Tianzhen.

Wu Tianzhen immediately understood what Zhang Qilin meant: "Fatty, open the coffin, there are no traps on it!"

"okay!"

The fat man couldn't wait any longer. He responded, put his hands on the coffin lid, and then pushed hard.

With a loud "bang," the coffin lid separated from the coffin and fell to the ground.

Everyone around immediately looked into the coffin, and the next second they all exclaimed in unison, "The Yin Soldier General!"

The corpse lying in the coffin looked exactly like the mute army general they had seen.

"call……"

"Suck……"

"call……"

Suddenly, everyone heard the sound of breathing.

Following the sound, they found it was coming from inside the coffin.

Suddenly, the ghostly general jumped out of the coffin.

"My God, it's come back to life!"

As the fat man yelled, he pulled out his entrenching tool and swung it at the Yin Soldier General.

At the same time, breathing sounds came from the coffins throughout the cave.

The next second, something suddenly pushed open the coffins around them from the inside.

Then one by one, soldiers in armor came out.

There were at least tens of thousands of coffins in the cave, which means that at least tens of thousands of soldiers were resurrected.

The sight of the approaching soldiers sent chills down everyone's spines.
