System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

The appearance of the passage in the giant snake's mouth made everyone understand why the apricot in the snake's mouth fell to the ground from mid-air.

It turns out that this letter was actually a staircase.

Zhang Hao and the others climbed over the stone coffin and up the apricot tree.

When they climbed onto the letter, they discovered that there were statues of ram heads, demons, and slaves on either side.

Zhang Hao and his group climbed along the tendrils to the snake's head and then crawled into the passage.

"Boom!"

As soon as they entered the passage, a loud crash came from behind them. When they turned around, they saw that a huge rock had fallen and completely blocked the entrance to the passage.

"How could this be?"

"Aren't we trapped inside the snake's head?"

"What's there to be afraid of with my uncle around? No matter how hard that rock is, it can't withstand a few punches from him."

"Alright, enough talk, let's hurry up and go through the passage to see what's inside."

Zhang Hao gripped the holy sword and charged through the passage first.

At the end of the passage was a strange space, a huge cave with countless coffins floating in mid-air.

Beneath the coffin was bubbling, scorching lava.

As soon as everyone entered, they were immediately hit by a scorching heat, much more intense than being exposed to the sun in summer. In just a few moments, everyone's skin turned bright red.

"It's so hot! I feel like we've entered a volcano!"

"I've never heard of volcanoes beneath the Badain Jaran Desert!"

"I had heard that the ancient Loulan Kingdom was located in Lop Nur, but who knew that the Loulan Queen was actually buried beneath the Badain Jaran Desert!"

"Indeed, this incident is far too bizarre."

From the moment Wang Xing, an archaeologist, died on the altar, Zhang Hao couldn't figure out the purpose of the person behind the scenes who led them here.

If it were a member of the Wang family, there would be no need to go to such lengths; they could simply use any means necessary to kill him.

As a result, not only did they not kill anyone, but one member of the archaeological team was killed.

This person's purpose is truly difficult to guess.

"Brother Zhang Hao, what do we do now?"

"Wait a minute!"

Faced with the coffin floating in mid-air throughout the cave, everyone was at a loss for what to do. The fat man had no choice but to ask Zhang Hao for the next plan.

Zhang Hao looked at the countless coffins in front of him and emitted a strange sound wave.

He felt there was something strange about the scene before him and decided to find out what was going on first.

Once the sound waves reflected back and were received by his brain, a picture of the entire cave formed in his mind.

The coffins in the cave are scattered up, down, left, and right, seemingly without any pattern, but in fact, they conform to the principles of Qimen Dunjia (a form of divination).

It's just that it's hard to spot when looking at only one side.

But Zhang Hao is different. The image formed by sound wave localization is three-dimensional and the perspective is complete, which is why he can see it easily.

The eight gates are Open, Rest, Life, Injury, Block, View, Death, and Shock. As long as you find the Life gate, you can successfully find the correct coffin among hundreds of floating coffins.

Similar mechanisms, employing the techniques of Qimen Dunjia, have been encountered in shipwreck tombs.

After finding the gate to life, we encountered a giant stone trap. Two stone slabs slammed into the middle, and although we narrowly escaped death, we still managed to find the gate to life above us.

I never expected that there would be people with such methods in this ancient, barbaric land.

Zhang Hao examined the images in his mind and used his knowledge of feng shui to find the location of the "life gate".

Just then, a rapid "gurgling" sound suddenly rang in my ears.

Looking down into the cave, one could see the lava below churning violently, as if something was about to burst forth from within.

As the rapid and eerie "gurgling" sound echoed deep within the cave, everyone's hearts leaped into their throats.

The magma churned more and more violently, as if a giant beast sleeping underground was about to awaken. The blazing red light shone through the gaps in the coffin in mid-air, illuminating the entire space as if it were a purgatory.

Zhang Hao frowned. He suddenly noticed that the lava below was rising rapidly. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before the lava filled the entire cave.

Apart from him, everyone else would probably be burned to a crisp in an instant.

The holy sword in Zhang Hao's hand trembled slightly. He knew that every second was crucial at this moment, and they had to find the gate of life as soon as possible, otherwise they might really perish here.

Zhang Hao quickly adjusted his breathing, concentrated his mind, and caught a faint clue to the gate of life in the complex array of coffins.

In his mind, a series of three-dimensional images spun rapidly, and the location, size, and even the subtle connections between each coffin gradually became clear.

Just then, the fat man's anxious voice broke the silence:

"Brother Zhang Hao, the lava below is about to overflow, and the entrance is blocked. What should we do?"

Zhang Hao suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the magma below had already approached the bottom of the coffin, and waves of heat rushed towards him, almost suffocating him.

Without time to think, he quickly combined the three-dimensional image in his mind with the actual situation. Finally, among the many coffins, he found one that was slightly off-center and had a slight airflow around it.

"Found it! The exit to life is right there!"

Zhang Hao pointed to the coffin and said, "Everyone, jump onto that coffin!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked in the direction Zhang Hao was pointing and saw a stone coffin floating in mid-air, with various strange patterns and texts carved on it.

Although they didn't know why Zhang Hao wanted them to jump onto that coffin, they trusted him and jumped up without hesitation.

The fat man stumbled and slipped off the coffin.

After letting out a scream, the fat man shouted, "Ah, I'm going to die! All my businesses will be left to Brother Zhang Hao!"

"Fatty, what are you yelling about? Get up here!"

"Have I already turned into charcoal?"

The fat man looked around and realized that he had only slipped off the coffin and had not fallen to the bottom of the hole.

"Holy crap, where is this place? How can we fly like those coffins?!"

The fat man exclaimed and adjusted his body position, then flipped over and jumped onto the stone coffin.

As the fat man miraculously flipped himself onto the stone coffin, everyone felt a little more at ease, but a tense atmosphere still permeated the entire space.

Zhang Hao's eyes were like torches, fixed on the lava at the bottom of the cave. The lava had already risen to the bottom of the stone coffin they were standing on. If it rose another meter or two, it would swallow them all up.

"Gulong!"

Just then, a huge bubble suddenly appeared in the middle of the magma, and a pitch-black snake head emerged from the magma.

"The Great Black Serpent that Seals the Soul of the Queen of Loulan!"

Everyone exclaimed in unison.
