After taking the premium deer antler grass, Blackback Old Six's condition improved significantly.

Although she was still not fully awake, her complexion had become slightly rosier.

Su Chen ordered his men to lift up the black-backed sixth brother, and then looked at the last coffin again.

As expected, there was also an insect inside this coffin.

After opening the coffin, Su Chen quickly killed the insect to prevent future trouble.

Then, Su Chen's gaze fell on the stone wall behind the three coffins.

After searching for a while, Su Chen found a gap in the stone wall and inserted the Four Seas Ancestral Tablet hanging around his neck into it.

The stone wall in front of them suddenly began to shake.

In no time, a passage appeared in front of everyone.

This passage leads to the final main burial chamber.

Yi Xiao and Su Chen exchanged a glance. After many twists and turns, they had finally reached the last hurdle.

Taking a deep breath, Yi Xiao followed Su Chen toward the main burial chamber.

This is a dilapidated hall; only by standing close to it can one truly appreciate its grandeur.

A throne was placed in the main hall.

A man who had long since died, whose body had long since withered, sat upright above.

He sat on the throne with his eyes closed, as if he were still surveying his territory.

A younger member of the Ding family stepped forward and took a dark-colored bead from the man's mouth.

In the blink of an eye, the corpse turned to ashes.

Many funerary objects were placed in a side hall of this main hall.

"Treasure hunt!"

Su Chen gave the instructions.

"Okay, Brother Chen!"

Su Yitian immediately stepped forward and began collecting the funerary objects in the main hall.

Su Chen looked around and began searching for a way out.

There seems to be no way out of here. If you want to get out, you should go back to the rotten wooden boat, which is a huge space where you might have a chance to escape.

"Withdraw!"

Su Chen led everyone outside.

Not long after Su Chen and the others left, a dark figure fell from the roof beam.

Its body was covered in fur, just like the previous black-backed sixth brother.

However, its size is far smaller than that of the Black-backed Old Six.

The dark shadow followed closely behind Su Chen and the others, silently creeping onto one of them. Before the person could react, it bit down hard.

It secretes a special substance between its teeth that anesthetizes the person.

They then disappeared, dragging the corpse with them.

A moment later, it followed behind the group and silently took one person away.

And so it wasn't until they exited the passage and arrived at the wooden boat that Su Chen discovered the clues.

Several people were missing from the crowd, all from the Ding and Jiang families, including a burly man from the Yi family.

"Everyone, please count the number of people!"

Su Chen immediately gave the order.

"Two members of the Ding family are missing. They were alive when they entered the main burial chamber just now."

Ding Wu hurriedly said.

"The Jiang family is missing three people, just like the Ding family."

Jiang Yunpo was terrified.

When I entered the main burial chamber just now, apart from those three coffins, there was clearly no danger.

Why was there no one around when I came out?

Could they have gotten lost?

Jiang Yunpo shook her head, feeling that this was unlikely.

They're all in their twenties or thirties, and they're all experts in their respective fields. How could they make a mistake in something like this? How could they lose their way while following the main group?

"Our Yi family has also lost one person."

Yi Xiao looked back at the passage he had just descended, feeling as if the dark passage was a monster with its gaping maw, devouring everyone's people.

"The problem still lies here!"

Su Chen summoned Ding Wu.

"Mr. Su, is there anything I can do for you?"

Ding Wu hurriedly said.

"Extend your right hand!"

Su Chen gave the instructions.

Ding Wu hurriedly stretched out his palm, and the next second, Su Chen cut Ding Wu's palm with the Black Gold Ancient Blade.

A piercing pain immediately rang out.

"Hold it!"

Su Chen grabbed Ding Wu's hand and pulled him up to the top of the passage.

As blood continued to drip down the passage, Ding Wu understood that Su Chen intended to use his blood to lure the monster up.

That monster may have always existed in the main burial chamber.

Because there were so many people, the monster didn't dare to show itself and just followed behind them.

Despite the excruciating pain, Ding Wu trembled all over.

They were terrified that if they weren't careful, they would be dragged down by the monster.

"Mr. Su, you must ensure my safety."

Ding Wu trembled as he looked down into the passage, praying that Su Chen would intervene at the crucial moment.

"Silence!"

Su Chen ordered Ding Wu not to speak.

His physical condition is nearly twenty times that of an average person, as is his hearing.

While the others didn't hear the sounds coming from inside the passage, Su Chen heard them clearly.

There were many people around when he came out, and many were talking quietly. Combined with the sound of footsteps, Su Chen didn't notice anything.

Now that the entire room was silent, Su Chen was able to hear what was happening inside the passageway.

It was as if something was gently rubbing against it; the monster was incredibly fast.

Sensing that the other party was about to rush out of the passage, Su Chen immediately raised the Black Gold Ancient Blade and slashed downwards.

"call!"

A gust of wind swept past, and Su Chen's strike missed its mark.

The others watched Su Chen's reaction closely.

“We failed. The thing below is more cunning than I expected,” Su Chen said in a deep voice. “Just now, it was about to rush out, but it retreated at the crucial moment.”

"Put your hand back in and bandage it properly."

Su Chen gave Ding Wu a word of advice, then stood in the passageway and stared down.

The monster should have realized what happened after its attack failed.

Trying to seduce it again would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.

"You all wait up there!"

Su Chen instructed, "I will go down there myself."

The only solution now is to completely eliminate that monster; otherwise, its constant presence behind Su Chen and the others could easily lead to trouble.

After instructing everyone to stay around the cave entrance and prevent the monster from coming out, Su Chen re-entered the passage.

"Tick!"

A drop of water fell from the sky and landed on Su Chen's arm.

Su Chen smelled a strong stench of blood.

This isn't water, it's blood!

Su Chen quickly shone his flashlight toward the top of the passage, only to see a dark shadow flash by.

The dark figure fled in the direction of the main burial chamber.

Without a second thought, Su Chen rushed over.

……

the other side.

Outside the passage, there were dozens of people from the three families who came in, but now there are fewer than twenty people left who are still standing.

Ding Wu's hand was bandaged, and he silently observed the group of people in front of him.

The Ding and Jiang families brought a large number of people, and even with some losses, they still have about thirteen or fourteen people left.

In contrast, the Yi family has the fewest members.

Ding Wu's gaze fell upon Jiang Yunpo, the head of the Jiang family.

The old woman seemed restless; although her expression was calm, she was observing her surroundings.
