After a while, a dozen ghost cultivators forced their way out of the Immortal Tomb, severely wounded and drenched in blood. Wang Xiaoqiang made a swift decision, immediately releasing the Patterned Beast and shouted to remind Princess Hua Shao, "Send them down!"
The Patterned Beast flew from Wang Xiaoqiang's back, charging fiercely towards the Loose Cultivators emerging from the tomb's entrance. Princess Hua Shao struck two ghost cultivators directly with the Way of Filial Piety, while Wang Xiaoqiang's Heaven and Earth Whip swept, instantly rolling four ghost cultivators down...
These ghost cultivators were all heavily injured, unable to retaliate, and were all knocked back into the Immortal Tomb.
The screams echoed long and unceasing.
About half a stick of incense's time later, the light emanating from the tomb entrance abruptly vanished, and the screams beneath the Immortal Tomb finally subsided.
Wang Xiaoqiang and Princess Hua Shao exchanged glances and silently waited. After a good while, Wang Xiaoqiang said, "The ghost cultivators should all be gone."
"Little Qiang, let's go down together!" Princess Hua Shao's pretty face displayed a flash of decisiveness.
"No, it's too risky, I can't let you go down," Wang Xiaoqiang said firmly, "I'll go alone; you stay at the tomb entrance. If I don't come back or send any messages within the time of an incense stick, you should leave..."
"No." Princess Hua Shao suddenly grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang's hand, her face filled with panic and concern, "I won't let you go down alone!"
At the crucial moment, she didn't feel embarrassed or ashamed about her loss of composure; her expression was entirely serious.
Wang Xiaoqiang felt warmth in his heart, patted her little hand, and said, "Believe me, it's okay. I never joke about my life..."
"You're joking about your life by doing this; hundreds of powerful ghost cultivators lost their lives down there, what chance could you possibly have alone?" Princess Hua Shao, still holding Wang Xiaoqiang's hand, said sincerely and solemnly.
"You forget, I am a Vajra Body Fourth Layer Body Refining Master. Those ghost cultivators are powerful, but are their physical bodies as solid as mine?"
Princess Hua Shao said nothing but still did not release Wang Xiaoqiang's hand, as if letting go would mean losing Wang Xiaoqiang forever.
"Even if I can't acquire the treasure, with the Vajra Body I can retreat unscathed. Besides, there's the Patterned Beast; at the critical moment, it can take the hit for me."
While Wang Xiaoqiang was speaking, he activated his willpower. The Patterned Beast rose, transformed into a shadow, then reattached to his back, turning into a tattoo.
Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang's resolute heart, Princess Hua Shao ceased to persuade but said, "Still, Little Qiang, I'm worried. Rather than agonize above, I'd rather go down with you."
"No, you'd be my burden if you went; it would be a big problem if danger arises. We might both end up getting stuck." Wang Xiaoqiang said gravely, "If you stay above, you're safe; I won't have psychological burdens."
Princess Hua Shao nodded in response, releasing Wang Xiaoqiang's hand, "Then you must... absolutely... be careful!"
"Alright, I will... absolutely be careful," Wang Xiaoqiang answered, finding Princess Hua Shao more cute and endearing than before; she at least worried about him, indicating she had him in her heart. This filled him with satisfaction.
After speaking, Wang Xiaoqiang gave a faint smile, then said no more, leaping down into the Immortal Tomb.
As Wang Xiaoqiang jumped down, Princess Hua Shao had an impulse to follow; she almost lay at the tomb's entrance, looking down, releasing her Divine Sense to closely monitor Wang Xiaoqiang's figure, continually praying for him in her heart.
As Wang Xiaoqiang leaped, he released the Three-Layered Golden Shell from beneath his skin to protect his body, then unleashed his Divine Sense to enshroud the area below, paying close attention to every movement.
While descending, he smelt a stench of blood and decay; as his body fell further, the odor became stronger.
It was nauseating.
After descending approximately a hundred meters underground, Wang Xiaoqiang finally safely reached the tomb pit's bottom. The space suddenly opened up before his eyes, drastically expanding; the tomb pit bottom, as his Divine Sense detected, spanned dozens of acres, very large; yet below, the stench of blood was thicker still, accompanied by a rotting smell.
The ground, approximately one acre, was littered with ghost cultivators' corpses, haphazardly strewn, limbs shattered, bodies covered in sword wounds; some were pierced with arrows like porcupines.
Blood flooding the ground, nearly forming a river, emitted a strong odor.
A tragic scene resembling Hell itself.
Looking afar, within the dozens of acres of tomb, rows of Terracotta Warriors stood neatly arranged; their stone material unknown, crafted with exquisite skill, lifelike.
In front of the Terracotta Warriors lay a Bronze Giant Coffin, approximately ten meters long, three meters wide, and four meters high; the size of a large truck, appearing quite eerie and daunting.
The Bronze Giant Coffin was covered with runes, as large as dippers, very conspicuous.
The ghost cultivators' bodies formed a pattern; if they resurrected and resumed their pre-death actions, they should all have been running toward that Bronze Giant Coffin. Clearly, they were aware the Immortal Tomb's treasure was likely within that coffin.
Wang Xiaoqiang of course knew this, yet didn't rush toward the Bronze Giant Coffin. Instead, he released his Divine Sense, probing the coffin, trying to see what was inside.
When his Divine Sense touched the coffin, the runes on its surface flickered, roaming everywhere; with their movements, the Bronze Giant Coffin brightened up, forming a layer of luminous barrier.
This barrier blocked Wang Xiaoqiang's Divine Sense outside.
"Hmm!? This Bronze Giant Coffin can actually shield Divine Sense!" Wang Xiaoqiang was extremely curious yet more convinced the treasure inside the tomb was within that coffin.
Thinking thus, Wang Xiaoqiang cautiously stepped towards the Bronze Giant Coffin; with each step, his Divine Sense tightly enveloped the entire tomb, monitoring every noise.
Finally, he reached the coffin without incident, observing closely, finding it even larger, more awe-inspiring.
Simultaneously, a visual pressure emanated from the coffin, overwhelming Wang Xiaoqiang to the point of being unable to breathe.
Damn, this must be an Immortal Emperor Level or higher tomb coffin; likely for an Immortal Emperor or even higher cultivator!
Wang Xiaoqiang was deeply conflicted; the higher the coffin's level, the more significant tools it held, undoubtedly; yet a higher-level coffin concealed greater dangers, as evidenced by the ghost cultivators' demise.
Wang Xiaoqiang desired the treasure yet feared the Bronze Giant Coffin; as dread grew, the "Courage" word within his Sea of Heart dimmed, surprisingly transforming, shrinking and withering...
Huh? No good! Fearful thoughts contradict the Path of Courage, damaging my Daoist Heart...
Aware, Wang Xiaoqiang shook his head, casting aside his worries, forcibly suppressing the fear, even summoned the Courage word from his Sea of Heart; upon its emergence, a crackling sound announced, thunderclap echoed, lightning flickered from the Courage word...
Wang Xiaoqiang stared at his Courage word, dumbfounded; unexpectedly, the Thunderclap Palm Technique integrated seamlessly with the Path of Courage; the lightning embedded in the Courage word was entwined with it, like milk and water, inseparable, progressing together, attack and defense unified, power doubled.
Thinking thusly, Wang Xiaoqiang's spirit soared within; as his heroic spirit expanded, the lightning-tinged Courage word surprisingly enlarged several times, its radiance intensified, golden light emanating.
