After escaping through the narrow gap, the group sat down to rest on top of the rock wall.

"SaSa, didn't you say that the mechanisms in the previous tomb chamber were constructed using the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams combined with Qimen Dunjia, and that as long as you entered the Life Gate, you could smoothly enter the main tomb chamber? How come we still encountered such a dangerous mechanism!"

Yi Sa shook her head: "Normally that's how it is, but there must be something wrong with it."

Don't you think there's a problem?

"What's wrong, Brother Zhang Hao?"

Do you still remember the Lu Palace?

Zhang Hao suddenly realized that their actions seemed to have been secretly manipulated from the moment they entered the underwater tomb.

It's as if a fixed route has already been set up. No matter what mechanisms or traps are set in the ancient tomb, the purpose is always to lead people along that fixed route.

Upon careful reflection, one can see that although these traps seemed dangerous, they always left a glimmer of hope.

This reminded him of the Lu Palace, which had been transformed by so-called gods in order to select suitable bodies.

When someone finally reaches the main burial chamber after going through great hardships, they will emerge and forcibly take over the body of another person with their own consciousness.

If Zhang Hao hadn't possessed the All Things Fusion System, his strength would have surpassed those three people.

Presumably, Uncle Wu, Wu Tianzhen, and the others are no longer the same people they once were.

Now that the underwater tomb gives him the same feeling, Zhang Hao suspects that the underwater tomb is actually a setup by Wang Zanghai, with the purpose of selecting a suitable body.

After Zhang Hao reminded her, Wu Tianzhen immediately understood.

"Uncle, do you mean there are monsters in the underwater tombs that can take over other people's bodies with their own consciousness?"

Zhang Hao nodded: "That's right. Everyone must be careful with every step from now on, so as not to give anyone an opportunity to take advantage of us."

"I understand, Uncle."

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie listened with puzzled expressions.

Even though she couldn't understand what Zhang Hao was saying, she still felt that she was connected to what he was saying.

"Fatty, where are you going?"

"There seems to be a hole ahead, I'll go take a look."

During the break, the fat man suddenly got up and walked in one direction. Wu Tianzhen asked him a question out of curiosity.

A moment later, the fat man's voice came from ahead: "Come quick, there's a tomb robber's hole over here, and there's a blood letter next to it!"

Zhang Hao and the others gathered around when they heard the fat man call out.

Before me was a neatly constructed tomb robbery tunnel, with several crooked, dark brown characters at the entrance.

The fat man held up his flashlight to illuminate the writing at the entrance of the tomb, and read aloud:

"Uncle Wu harmed me. I had nowhere to turn and died a tragic death in the ancient tomb. Who exactly is Xie Nianhuan? Why did Uncle Wu harm him?"

"Impossible. My third uncle would never harm anyone. There must be some secret he's hiding."

Wu Tianzhen was utterly incredulous when he saw these words. His Uncle Wu always cared for him so much; how could he possibly do such a thing?

It should be noted that the Xie family and the Wu family are cousins.

Then it's even less likely that Uncle Wu would do such a thing.

Zhang Hao patted Zha Wutianzhen on the shoulder and comforted her, "It's okay, a few words don't explain anything. Let's go into the tomb and take a look; there might be some clues inside."

Wu Tianzhen nodded, raised her flashlight, and went into the tomb.

Zhang Hao and the others followed them inside. The tunnel was narrow at the outside but loose at the inside, becoming more spacious as they went further in.

After walking several dozen meters through the tunnel, the group entered a spacious cave.

As soon as they entered, everyone shivered. The temperature inside was much lower than in other places, and the cave was even covered with a thin layer of frost.

"What kind of place is this? It's like a cold storage room. How can it be so cold in there?"

The fat man kept rubbing his hands together and breathing on them, all the while complaining.

Just then, Wu Tianzhen suddenly exclaimed, "Third Uncle!"

Then he rushed forward without looking back.

Zhang Hao remembered that Uncle Wu was not at the shipwreck tomb at this time. Could Wu Tianzhen have seen a ghost?
