System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

A green light flashed in the mummy's eyes, striking Zhang Hao's forehead.

Immediately afterwards, several black lights flashed by, and Zhang Hao immediately reached out to grab them.

He quickly grabbed the several streaks of black light in his hand.

Only then did they realize that the black light was actually a small black snake covered in black scales.

The black snake's scales are as long and thin as a hair.

Although he had never seen it before, Zhang Hao recognized it immediately; it was a black-haired snake.

The black-haired snakes were held in Zhang Hao's hand. They kept twisting and struggling, and every now and then they would turn their heads and bite his hand.

Every time this happens, I hear the sound of bones cracking.

Imagine the sound of biting into a stone; it's similar to that.

However, Zhang Hao's body was as hard as diamond, and the black-haired snake's fangs would break if it bit him with force.

"Uncle, the little snake in your hand looks strange. Why is it covered in hair?"

When Wu Tianzhen saw what Zhang Hao was holding, she took a closer look and realized it was a small snake. Attracted by its strange appearance, she asked him about it.

"This is a black-haired snake, a type of snake whose venom can store human memories."

"It can even store memories? That's amazing! It's just like a memory card!"

Wu Tianzhen's description is quite apt; the black-haired snake is indeed a memory card used by some ancient people.

Zhang Hao squeezed the black-haired snakes to death and threw them on the ground before preparing to explore other parts of the tomb.

At this moment, Wu Tianzhen suddenly screamed and squatted on the ground, clutching her head in pain.

"Tianzhen, what's wrong?"

"I... a lot of things suddenly popped into my head."

"Naive, what do you mean? Did some insect crawl inside?"

His screams attracted the attention of the others, who surrounded him, watching his suffering but unsure what to do.

Zhang Qilin glanced at the black-haired snake on the ground, then at Wu Tianzhen, and said, "He's alright."

Seeing his reaction, Zhang Hao suddenly understood what was going on.

The black-haired snake transmits memories from its venom through a substance called pheromones.

Wu Tianzhen just happens to be able to receive this kind of information.

He said something had crawled into his head, which probably refers to memories that didn't belong to him.

The reason he was in so much pain was because he had just crushed five black-haired snakes to death, and their venom contained an excessive amount of information.

He'll get better once he's processed those memories.

A dozen minutes later, Wu Tianzhen was on the verge of collapse. His whole body was soaked in sweat and his face was contorted. Just when he could no longer hold on, he finally digested all the memories that did not belong to him.

The physical pain lessened, and I felt better overall.

"Tianzhen, how are you?"

"I'm fine now, but my thoughts are still a bit muddled, and my head is filled with a lot of jumbled memories."

He stood up from the ground and walked toward a corner of the tomb.

"Everyone come over here."

Zhang Hao gave a shout and followed.

Wu Tianzhen led everyone to a corner of the tomb chamber, bypassing a bronze mirror.

A closed stone door came into view.

Wu Tianzhen walked over, placed her hands on the stone door, pushed it open, and then rushed inside as if possessed.

Zhang Hao quickly followed, wanting to see what he was up to.

Upon entering, they discovered that behind the stone gate was another tomb chamber, filled with bottles and jars, and the stone platform in the middle was piled with all sorts of strange and unusual corpses.

Some were half-human, half-beast; some had fish tails; and some even had tails growing from their buttocks…

Wu Tianzhen stood beside the corpses, staring blankly at them.

As soon as Zhang Hao approached him, he said, "Uncle, it's like I've been here before. I came here to verify the ideas in my mind, but I didn't expect that the extra memories in my head were all true."

"Besides these, are there any other memories?"

Wu Tianzhen rubbed his head, then shook his head: "The extra memories in my head are almost all about these corpses."

As he spoke, he walked to the side, picked up a worn, yellowed book from the stone platform, and began to read it.

"Uncle, do you still remember the scene you saw in that eight-sided stone tablet under the pool?"

"Remember, what happened?"

Zhang Hao remembered that those images recorded Wang Canghai's discovery of the secret of Wan Nu Wang's immortality, but that method was not perfect.

He sought a perfect way to achieve immortality and then discovered clues about God in ancient texts.

The gods here are a group of people who occupy other people's bodies with their own consciousness and live forever.

Wu Tianzhen shook the ancient book in his hand and said, "This records what happened after that. Wang Canghai also wanted to obtain immortality like a god, so he began large-scale experiments."

Through experiments, he discovered the black-haired snake and the snake-browed bronze fish, which can store memories.

There are ways to store a person's memories, but there are no ways to transfer those memories into a new body.

Each time memories are transferred, the body being transferred mutates, turning into all sorts of monsters.

Some monsters even possess special abilities.

"The sea monkey, the Forbidden Woman, is she a product of his experiments?"

The fat man responded to Wu Tianzhen's words.

"Yes, that's it."

"And then what happened? What happened next?"

After hearing what Wu Tianzhen said, both Yi Sa and Ding Yudie looked very unwell.

This experiment is clearly related to what they are investigating.

"The paper at the back was torn off, so I don't know what happened after that."

Wu Tianzhen looked helpless.

Yi Sa and Ding Yudie looked disappointed upon hearing this: "It seems that to find out the truth, we must continue the investigation."

The tomb chamber that Wu Tianzhen led everyone to should be a laboratory, where Wang Canghai conducted his immortality experiments.

It's unknown whether he succeeded or not, or whether he has mastered the method of transferring his consciousness into another person's body.

After searching the tomb chamber and finding nothing, the group returned to the outer tomb chamber.

As soon as he returned, the fat man shouted, "Where's the mummified corpse? The mummified corpse that sat on the model of the Golden Palace is gone!"

Zhang Hao looked towards the spot where the mummified corpse had originally been and found that it was indeed empty; the mummified corpse that had been sitting there was nowhere to be found.

His throat trembled, emitting a strange sound wave.

His ability to locate objects with sound waves allowed him to instantly grasp the situation inside the tomb.

The mummified corpse was seen groping for something behind a bronze mirror in the corner of the tomb.

He also discovered that behind each of the four bronze mirrors in the four corners of the tomb was a stone door.

If I'm not mistaken, there should be a tomb chamber behind the stone gate, but I don't know if it's the same one that we just went into, the one that Wang Canghai used for experiments.

"Over there, come with me."

Zhang Hao gave a warning and rushed over.

He had barely arrived when the sound of machinery turning began to fill the air.

It turned out that the mummified corpse was activating a mechanism; with a loud "boom," the stone door was opened.

Zhang Hao looked into the stone gate and saw that it was full of mummified corpses, just like the one depicted in the model of the Golden Heavenly Palace.

The moment the stone gate opened, their hair, beards, and nails began to grow wildly.

Then, quite abruptly, he opened his eyes and sat up from the ground.
