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

When a normal wind blows a flame, the fire will definitely drift with the wind direction.

If it is a cold wind, the flames will turn green; the stronger the cold wind, the deeper the green color of the flames.

This is why tomb raiders would place a candle after entering the tomb.

However, when flames explode from the center outwards, it's not wind, but death energy.

In Feng Shui, there is an emphasis on "gathering and storing Qi," which exists between heaven and earth and all things, and is omnipresent.

Qi (vital energy) belongs to Yang, and earth belongs to Yin. The two complement and stimulate each other. When there is Qi in the earth, all things are born. This is why a Feng Shui treasure land must also "gather and retain Qi" and has very high requirements for Qi.

This 'qi' doesn't refer to air, but rather to 'life force'.

Dragon veins generate dragon energy. The more auspicious and favorable a location is, the more noble it gathers, and the more it will bless future generations.

An inauspicious place generates yin energy; the more inauspicious the place, the deeper the yin energy accumulates.

In short, no matter where you are, whether it's a place of nobility or yin energy, 'qi' is everywhere!

There are exceptions to everything.

In Feng Shui, there is an extremely powerful technique that can block the flow of Qi, causing it to stop circulating, yin and yang to close, and all things to cease to grow, turning it into a "deadly and inauspicious place"!

The "qi" generated in this place is death qi, which means there is no qi!

All things depend on qi for life. Without qi, nothing will be born, and no living being can set foot there.

This is the most powerful anti-theft measure in the world!

I never expected that the person who built this tomb of King Kang was such a powerful feng shui master.

Although the concept of Feng Shui was only proposed in the Jin Dynasty, the art of geomancy existed as early as ancient times.

Therefore, this can also be considered a type of geomancy.

"Captain Chen, what is death aura?"

Seeing the grim and uncertain expression on Chen Yibai's face, and noticing the strange flame of the torch, Yan Wanlei frowned and cautiously asked a question.

This is truly a perilous situation, with one crisis after another. Anyone with a weaker mental fortitude might not be able to withstand this kind of torment.

Fortunately, Captain Chen was there!

After these several near-death experiences with the archaeological team, Chen Yibai is now the team's source of reassurance.

As long as Captain Chen is in the team, no danger is necessarily an absolute danger.

But this time, Chen Yibai shook his head uncertainly: "Let's go and take a look first..."

The situation is too complicated, and there's no point in explaining it further now.

Chen Yibai had only heard about the 'Deadly Land of Absolute Fiends'; the specific details still needed to be explored.

As for these bronze-armored ghosts, although Chen Yibai can 'communicate' with them, he can only command them to attack or stop, but cannot command them to move according to his own will, so he can only leave them here for now.

At the very back of the main hall, there is an arched passageway more than three meters high.

This confirms Chen Yibai's earlier prediction: this is only the front hall of the Dragon Tower Palace; there must be a rear hall or main hall as well.

This arched passageway is more like a man-made cave.

Chen Yibai stuck the torch inside, and under the orange-red light, it seemed to stretch endlessly, appearing quite deep.

Chen Yibai gave Yan Wanlei a look.

Yan Wanlei immediately understood, gestured for the rest of the group to follow, and began to follow Chen Yibai into the cave.

After walking for about several dozen meters, the end of the cave was an endless darkness.

When Chen Yibai reached the end of the cave, he stopped and stretched out his torch. The sight he saw in the torchlight stunned him.

It looked like a natural mountain cave, with the firelight shrouded in pitch-black darkness, making it impossible to tell how big the place actually was.

All that could be seen were human skeletons scattered everywhere underfoot, and in the firelight, there seemed to be an endless expanse of them.

Looking at the horrifying scene before me, I felt as if I had truly entered the underworld, where the air was filled with the smell of death!

"hiss……"

Everyone around gasped in shock.

How many people died to accumulate so many bones?

Compared to this, a mass grave is probably nothing.

"The Kangxi Emperor devoted the entire nation's resources to building his tomb over forty years. After the tomb was completed, the Kangxi Emperor vanished overnight. It seems that the entire nation's people are here!"

Chen Yibai looked at the scene before him, his eyes slightly narrowed, and said calmly.

"The whole country?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Haichuan immediately did some mental calculations. Although the Kang Dynasty was just a regional state during the Shang Dynasty, a regional state with a complete national structure could have at least tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of people.

In other words, there are hundreds of thousands of skeletons here? That's truly terrifying and outrageous to even think about.

Wang Haichuan has spent most of his life researching ancient sites, and the biggest discovery in archaeological history is nothing more than the burial of a thousand people.

The fact that hundreds of thousands of people across the country were buried alive is something I wouldn't even dare to imagine if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes.

"Isn't this Prince Kang too ruthless?"

Qiu Jing, standing behind, couldn't help but mutter something under her breath.

"Isn't that right?"

Yang Qingyun then interjected with a question, frowning as she said, "Hundreds of thousands of people across the country, what kind of concept is that? If you kill them one by one, how long would it take? And looking at these skeletal remains, there are no obvious external injuries, the neck bones are white, and there are no obvious signs of poisoning. So how did hundreds of thousands of people die here at the same time?"

Yang Qingyun believes she has a very high IQ, which is a question worth pondering.

So, perhaps these skeletons are only what we see right now?

"Captain Chen, what Xiaoyun said does make some sense!"

Wang Haichuan nodded silently and looked at Chen Yibai.

Chen Yibai neither refuted nor explained, but simply looked at everyone and asked, "Your phones still have power, right? It's 8:15 PM now. Start the timer now and go in after two minutes. After two minutes, no matter what you see or what happens, you must immediately come back!"

As he spoke, Chen Yibai took out his phone and set a timer.

Although everyone had doubts, they didn't ask, and instead took out their phones and did as instructed.

After setting the time on his phone, Chen Yibai, holding a torch high, walked at the front and began to step into this 'Deadly Land of Absolute Death'.

The moment they stepped into this deadly place, the burning torches exploded even more fiercely from the center, the flames roaring and leaping wildly in all directions, as if holding up a blooming flaming lotus flower.

Click! Click! Click!

The bones beneath my feet were extremely brittle due to the passage of time; each step I took broke several pieces off immediately.

As they slowly walked forward, the darkness that was pushed aside seemed to have no end, and the corpses on the ground stretched endlessly.

This gradually confirms what Chen Yibai just said.

This place is indeed the burial site for hundreds of thousands of corpses from all over the country!
