That echo again!

Ever since she left the Western Han Dynasty imperial tombs in the Qinling Mountains, Yan Xuefei has been haunted by a strange echo in her mind, talking about bizarre immortality, as if it were beckoning her.

It was under the guidance of these recurring echoes in her mind that Yan Xuefei summoned the Heavenly Path Society and made her way here.

And the journey went very smoothly.

The echoes stopped when they reached the base of the tower of corpses.

Then, the echo resounded again after the hole was blasted open with a detonator, repeatedly chanting, "May you live forever and be as long-lived as the heavens!"

However, this time was different from before. Previously, I only felt the sound echoing in my brain.

This time, the sound felt like it was being heard by the ears, and it felt very real and three-dimensional.

Yan Xuefei could even discern the direction from which the sound came and abruptly turned her head to look.

At the same time, Chen Yibai also stopped instantly and turned to look at Yan Xuefei, including Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan.

Because Chen Yibai, Guan Yunlong, and Wu Daoshan also heard the words "eternal life, as long as heaven".

So that sound just now wasn't just an echo in Yan Xuefei's mind, it was real.

The voice was very muffled, and it was delivered in an extremely eerie tone, with a long, drawn-out ending, making it sound incredibly mysterious and sending chills down one's spine.

Someone was talking inside the tomb. I had just encountered something similar at the Western Han Dynasty imperial mausoleum.

However, the one who spoke in the Western Han Dynasty imperial tomb was a wisp of spirit hidden in the Investiture of the Gods Pearl.

And who is speaking here?

A two-headed monster king with two heads?

If, according to popular legend, those who rely on Gu magic to achieve immortality will lose their minds in extreme pain, becoming insane and ferocious, how could they possibly speak in such a tone and manner?

As Chen Yibai turned his head.

In the very center of the corpse tower stood a tree nearly ten meters tall, but it also looked somewhat like a coffin.

It looks like a tree, or a coffin?

More accurately, it should be described as extremely thick vines that intertwine to form a shape similar to a rectangular coffin, higher in the front and lower in the back, with sharp edges on all four sides.

These enormous, thick vines all grew from the piles of mummified corpses beneath their feet, using them as 'soil'.

Unlike the ordinary bloodthirsty vines outside, these vines growing from the dried corpses intertwine and merge together, forming vines that are more than a meter in diameter, or even close to two or three meters in diameter.

These vines weren't completely black; instead, you could vaguely see red blood flowing through them, making them seem like living things, swaying slightly from side to side.

So what Chen Yibai sees now is a 'blood vine coffin' that is over ten meters tall and can move!

This is why red light appears here.

When Guan Yunlong first came up, he first said he saw a tree, and then he said he saw a coffin.

The words I just heard came from inside this blood vine coffin in front of me.

Chen Yibai had seen bronze coffins, gold coffins, and inner coffins, but this was the first time he had ever seen a coffin woven from rattan.

This is truly eye-opening – a small knife can be used to pull out a big rip-off.

However, upon seeing the true form of the blood vine coffin, Chen Yibai's previous thoughts began to waver and change: "Perhaps, the Two-Headed Gu King really has achieved immortality!"

Because this blood vine is covered with countless blood vessels, the blood flowing through it is clearly visible, and it is also glowing red.

Although I don't understand it very well, I can roughly tell that the purpose of these countless piled-up mummies is to continuously supply 'energy' to the Bloodvine Coffin.

Or you could say it's an ancient, mysterious, and evil form of Gu magic!

"This is fucking... looks like another high-level game!"

Chen Yibai looked up at the blood vine coffin, which was over ten meters tall and still swaying slightly. There was an indescribable sense of malevolent oppression, so much so that Chen Yibai felt extremely small just standing there...

"Should we leave now?"

At this point, Chen Yibai even considered retreating.

It's not that Chen Yibai is cowardly; people must approach things beyond their comprehension with respect and caution.

Especially in the business of tomb raiding, you must never rashly confront something that seems beyond your capabilities.

Some things from the ancients are beyond the capacity of ordinary people to withstand.

Take the Candle Dragon in the Kangwang Tomb, for example. If its weakness hadn't been found, how could a mere mortal have been able to fight it one-on-one?

And at that time, they were forced to fight back because they had no other choice but to do so.

The situation is completely different now.

Firstly, there is a way to retreat.

Secondly, there's no profit to be made, so there's absolutely no need to risk your life to stay here.

Anyway, I've completed my mission. With the fame I've gained from live streaming, I'll be set for life and won't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my days. I'll leave the aftermath to the police.

If the police really can't handle it, we can just use a few missiles to blast them to smithereens!

It has been said that supernatural beings are not allowed after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Just because Captain Chen is not confident in handling something does not mean that missiles cannot handle it.

At the same time, Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan were also struggling to breathe under the oppressive influence of the evil blood vine coffin, their hearts filled with unease and uncertainty.

They said they came to seek immortality, but looking at the situation before them, something felt off.

Could it be that immortality is just 'rebirth on the spot'?

So Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan also considered retreating, but the police were right outside. If they were caught, they would definitely be in trouble. There was no way to retreat, so they could only turn their attention to Yan Xuefei again.

After all, it was Yan Xuefei who insisted on coming to find Changsheng, so maybe she knows about the Blood Vine Coffin and the secret of Changsheng.

At this moment, Yan Xuefei stared intently at the blood vine coffin, her gaze becoming strange and bewitching, as if possessed by something. She walked step by step toward the blood vine coffin.

When Yan Xuefei walked to within three to five meters of the blood vine coffin, the huge vines that were intertwined and wrapped around the coffin suddenly split open in the middle, like a door that opened automatically for Yan Xuefei.

Using his night vision, Chen Yibai tried to see behind the gap, but whether it was due to the red light or something else, it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything behind the gap.

All that could be seen was Yan Xuefei walking straight in, and then the gap closed again.

"Miss Yan...Miss Yan?"

Guan Yunlong and Wu Daoshan watched helplessly as Yan Xuefei walked into the blood vine coffin, leaving the two of them standing there.

Does this count as being abandoned?

I'm done with you guys, do whatever you want, I'm outta here!

Chen Yibai didn't care about anything else. This place was not safe to stay in for long, so it was best to leave first!

But then Chen Yibai suddenly turned around and took a closer look.

The hole that was blasted with a detonator earlier is gone?
