Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

Taking advantage of the moment when the person above was being dragged in, Chen Yibai quickly seized the opportunity, hunched his shoulders, and nimbly crawled up through the hole, while simultaneously turning his head warily to look around.

Fortunately, Chen Yibai possessed night vision and immediately spotted a white-haired, burly figure covered in white fur, quickly dragging a person on the ground and disappearing from sight in an instant, moving at an extremely fast speed.

What blocked the view was a dense vine, like upside-down willow branches, hanging down like a waterfall, almost completely obscuring the view.

Why are there so many vines?

Chen Yibai quickly looked up, because the vines hanging down from above were too dense. Even with night vision, he could only barely see more than ten meters up. Beyond that, he couldn't see anything at all.

Fortunately, these vines were not bloodthirsty vines; otherwise, even someone with three heads and six arms would probably not be able to withstand being entangled by so many bloodthirsty vines.

At this moment, everyone from the Tianqian Group also climbed up, each holding a wolf-eye flashlight. However, even with the strong light, the dense vines greatly obstructed the surrounding view.

In such circumstances, the sense of crisis is even stronger. What everyone fears and worries about most at this moment is that the white-haired ghost will use the vines as cover to sneak up behind them.

And just as I feared, it happened.

Just as everyone climbed up and before they could even get their feet on the ground, a white arm suddenly and silently reached out from the gaps in the vines, like a demonic claw, and quickly dragged them into the darkness.

The incessant screams had already terrified several of the more vulnerable individuals, causing them to tremble all over.

"Damn it, watch your step! Cut all these vines down first!"

Guan Yunlong roared in anger. He wasn't heartbroken for his men, but rather because each lost man meant the danger was getting closer.

In addition, Guan Yunlong, as the president of the Tianxing Society, is under great pressure. If he fails to command properly, the entire army could be wiped out.

As for Guan Yunlong's warning to "watch your step," it's because the dense holes underfoot are only twenty centimeters apart, barely enough for one foot to fit, and the ground is covered with a semi-transparent white slime. This slime is slippery, and you have to be careful not to fall with every step you take, making it feel like walking on a cliff.

If you accidentally step into the air and fall completely, that's fine, since you won't die from a fall of more than three meters. But if half a leg falls, you'll be in serious trouble.

At Guan Yunlong's command, everyone hurriedly took out their swords and other weapons and frantically slashed at the surrounding vines.

But these vines were much harder than I had imagined, like the heartwood of cypress. Sharp swords made a 'bang bang' sound when they hit them, and it took more than a dozen cuts to barely break one, from which blackish-brown sap would flow.

More importantly, the dense vines hanging down from above also greatly limit the space available for maneuver.

On the other hand, Guan Yunlong's black gold knife was much sharper, and he quickly cut out a relatively open space around him. Yan Xuefei and Wu Daoshan immediately moved over, and the three of them stood back to back in a triangle, looking around warily.

As for Chen Yibai, he quickly drew the crimson ancient sword from his back and made room about ten meters away from Guan Yunlong and the others to prevent the white-haired monster from attacking from behind.

Chen Yibai's current goal is simple: to quietly follow them and keep to himself. If they try to advance, he'll just follow along, gain experience, and play along.

If they retreat, then we'll retreat too, since we've pretty much finished our task anyway.

As for any kind of magic or immortality techniques, Chen Yibai had absolutely no interest in them.

"Chuck... cluck..."

The eerie gurgling sound rang out again, a sound that was neither a laugh nor a cry.

However, this time Chen Yibai quickly turned his head and followed the sound, and saw clearly through the gap in the vines that the monster covered in white fur was in the form of a white-armed ape. Apart from its white fur, its hands and feet were all black. Its dark face had clear features and was nine-tenths similar to a human. Under its huge forehead were two thick white eyebrows, and under the white eyebrows were two exaggeratedly large eyes with an evil look in them. Especially when it grinned, it felt like that kind of lewd and vile evil.

"Holy crap! This looks like the face I saw in the second mural of the birthing monkey in the passageway!"

Chen Yibai was surprised. In the mural in the passageway, there was a blurry figure riding on a woman's body, sowing seeds. Because the body was blurry, he couldn't tell what it looked like, but the extremely evil and lewd face was very vivid, almost exactly the same as the face he was seeing now.

In addition, its ape-like body makes it a perfect match, doesn't it?

"A type of monkey?"

Good heavens, most likely, those monstrous monkeys we encountered before were the result of this monstrous thing's evil deeds, right?

It's been thousands of years and it's still alive. The white fur on its body is probably a sign of natural aging. So it seems that the longevity of Gu magic is not just a rumor!

This monster gripped the vines with both arms. Despite its strong physique, it did not hinder its agility. Like swinging on a swing, it quickly passed through the gaps in the vines, reached behind and grabbed a person by the back of the neck, dragging them away.

The speed and suddenness of the fall startled even the person next to him, causing him to slip and lose half his leg as he fell through the hole. He then twisted his body and got his groin stuck on the edge of the hole, letting out a painful scream.

It's said that testicular pain in men is ten times more painful than childbirth for women, but I don't know if that's true.

But judging from those screams, they did indeed seem even more heart-wrenching than a woman giving birth in the delivery room...

Holy crap, this guy looks like his life's over! It's giving me the creeps.

[No need to ask, the answer is that he has basically said goodbye to women for the rest of his life.]

What was that furry thing we just saw? It looked like a monkey.

"Monkeys my foot! How could there be monkeys here? I think it's more like a white-haired rice dumpling..."

[Dude upstairs, you've been reading too many tomb raiding novels. A zombie can be this agile? That's practically invincible!]

Millions of netizens in the live stream were still watching the drama unfold and engaging in heated discussions.

The only drawback is that Captain Chen didn't have time to provide real-time explanations and explanations.

"Damn it, get together and move closer! Did you guys see what that is?"

Guan Yunlong's angry voice followed.

"It looks like...it looks like a white-haired monkey!"

A scream of agony was accompanied by a response.
