System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

"What are we going to do? This guy is bleeding dry!"

"Everyone, stay behind me and don't leave."

Zhang Hao's body is as hard as a diamond when attacked by external forces, so he is naturally not afraid of highly poisonous mycelia that can instantly dissolve people, but others are different.

As expected, they have now entered the tomb of the Ghost Prince, and his performance will directly determine how many opportunities he can have to merge.

The number of monsters killed, the time taken to complete the level, the completeness of the exploration, and the number of casualties will all affect how many fusion opportunities he can ultimately obtain.

So he didn't hold back. Now that everyone was in danger, he naturally had to step forward and help the team explore the entire ancient tomb with minimal casualties and as quickly as possible.

"Xiao Hao, don't be reckless. Once the mycelium gets into your body, it will dissolve in just a few seconds. Even a god couldn't help you."

"Third Brother, don't worry."

Zhang Hao shielded the others behind him and charged ahead alone.

Sensing Zhang Hao's approach, the mycelia attacked him one after another.

They burrowed into his body through the pores of his skin, just like they would attack anyone else.

However, Zhang Hao's physical strength far exceeded expectations; he could not be harmed in the slightest by knives or spears, so how could some mycelium possibly penetrate him?

He was completely unaffected.

The people behind them were astonished and stunned.

"Xiao Hao, what's going on?"

"Uncle, why can't the mycelium hurt you?"

Zhang Qilin also took notice.

Zhang Hao didn't explain much. As he advanced, he took the initiative to attack, directly tearing off the attacking mycelium and creating a safe passage for the people behind him.

A dozen minutes later, the group left the passage and entered a circular stone chamber.

If Zhang Hao hadn't intervened, even if everyone had been drained of all of Zhang Qilin's blood, they wouldn't have made it this far.

"call……"

Seeing that no more highly poisonous mycelium appeared around them, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After a short rest, the group began to explore the current stone chamber.

The stone chamber was over ten meters high and cylindrical, with eight dragon head sculptures encircling the top, each holding a stone-carved dragon pearl in its mouth.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud bang came from the entrance.

Suddenly, a huge rock fell down at the entrance, completely blocking the exit.

As the dragon head sculptures opened their mouths, the stone beads inside rolled down, followed by a rustling sound, as quicksand continuously poured into the stone chamber from the dragon mouths.

"It's quicksand! We're already trapped inside. If we can't find an exit in time, we'll be buried alive!"

Uncle Wu frowned when he saw the quicksand trap. This kind of trap was the most difficult to crack, the most difficult to deal with, and the most dangerous. It could kill someone at any time.

The quicksand was moving very fast, reaching everyone's ankles in just a few breaths.

The stone chamber is over ten meters high; at this rate, it would be filled with quicksand in just a few minutes.

"Third Master, what do we do now? I haven't gotten married yet, I don't want to die!"

As Da Kui watched the quicksand pouring in, he began to cry and scream.

"Useless thing, you're not dead yet. You're so strong, why don't you try smashing the wall open?"

Uncle Wu snorted angrily.

He forced himself to calm down and pondered how to break the mechanism to save his life.

"Third Master, is there any way we can plug the mouths of those dragon heads?"

Uncle Wu shook his head: "The people who designed the mechanism would never give us that chance. At a height of more than ten meters, there are no points of leverage on the surrounding walls, so it's impossible to touch them."

"Then what can we do? Are we just going to watch ourselves get buried by quicksand?"

Panzi was extremely anxious as he looked at the quicksand that had reached his calves.

On the contrary, Wu Tianzhen was in a better situation and was not as afraid as the others. Perhaps this is the fearlessness of a newborn calf, as he had not yet experienced the horror of the quicksand mechanism.

"Uncle, do you have any ideas?"

In just a few days, Zhang Hao's demonstrated abilities impressed Wu Tianzhen greatly. In the past, when he had a problem, he would always ask Uncle Wu for help first.

But now, without realizing it, he asks Uncle Wu for help less and less often, and when he has a problem, he always thinks of Zhang Hao first.

Zhang Hao remained silent, his eyes fixed on Zhang Qilin.

At this moment, Zhang Qilin was moving two fingers across the wall.

In addition to its offensive capabilities, the Tomb Raider also possesses keen perception, enabling it to detect even the smallest mechanisms.

Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, it's no surprise that he has found a way to break the mechanism.

Zhang Qilin suddenly stopped under a stone dragon head sculpture.

He used his knuckles to pierce directly through a brick in the wall, then bent his knuckles to grip the brick and slowly pulled it outwards.

Once the stone brick was pulled out, a ceramic sphere was revealed inside.

"boom!"

Zhang Qilin withdrew his finger and attacked the sphere again. As the porcelain sphere shattered, the "rustling" sound in everyone's ears also stopped.

"The machine has stopped!"

"Great! It was the young man who broke the mechanism!"

"You're really amazing, buddy. If it weren't for you, we would have really been done for here today."

……

The quicksand stopped pouring into the stone chamber, and everyone was overjoyed.

"Uncle, that guy is amazing! How did he find the mechanism?"

"He is the leader of the tomb raiders. With him in the team, we don't need to worry too much about encountering traps."

But now is not the time to relax.

Although the quicksand was gone, I could still hear rustling sounds.

We've already seen red centipedes, as thick as an arm, crawling out from under the sand.

"How come these centipedes are so big? They must be centipede demons by now!"

As Da Kui muttered to himself, he took out an entrenching tool and slapped it at the centipede that was approaching.

With a "crack," the centipede shattered into countless pieces.

The others also took out their tools to drive away the approaching centipedes.

But as time went on, the number of centipedes increased, seemingly endless.

Slowly, centipedes began to break through the defenses and approach the group.

“I remember now, the old man’s notes mentioned this kind of centipede. They are highly venomous centipedes. If you are bitten, you will suffocate instantly and watch your body melt away into pus.”

The most terrifying thing is that when it melts, it doesn't actually die, but remains conscious, yet it can't do anything and can only watch helplessly.

Back then, General Chen from western Hunan lost his head in the Pingshan Tomb, and many others perished because of this very thing.

"What do we do now? Are we all going to die here?"

Da Kui was so frightened by the terrifying sight of the venomous centipedes that he trembled all over and could barely move. Slowly, more venomous centipedes approached.

"Third Uncle, does Grandpa's notebook record what methods President Chen ultimately used to deal with these centipedes?"

"The Angry-Eyed Chicken, a divine chicken said to have the bloodline of a phoenix."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tianzhen's expression darkened. What use would knowing how to deal with these centipedes be now? It was like trying to put out a fire from afar.
