The crowd wasn't foolish and quickly recalled the rumors suddenly spreading from the mountain's base, saying that Zhong Xiang had discovered the entrance to that great tomb and intended to keep the Creation from the Divine Demon Tomb for himself.
Thinking of this, Liu Lin's face immediately darkened, and he said righteously, "How can there be such unfilial people in this world? His grandfather was harmed, and we come to avenge him. As his grandson, he dares to make excuses and stops us from taking revenge? I wish to confront him personally, how would you all advise me?"
"We should certainly go together! To seek justice for Mr. Wuliu!"
"I want to see if this Zhong Xiang dares to keep us outside."
...
A group of people discussed furiously and stormed directly toward Zhong Xiang's camp. Facing the aggressive elders from the Confucian sect, Zhong Xiang secretly sneered: 'Elders, it is not my intention to trick you. Since you want to jump into the pit yourself, you can't blame me.'
"Zhong Xiang, your great uncle debated with Zhang Chen, and Zhang Chen shattered his Dao heart. He is still in a stupor. We want to capture that Zhang Chen to avenge your uncle. Why do you stop us? You are a scholar, and even a standout among them. Did you read the books into a dog's stomach, neglecting hatred for personal gain?" Liu Lin's voice was full of righteousness, showing no fear even facing Zhong Xiang, the so-called Southern Qilin.
"What? My great uncle's Dao heart was shattered?" Zhong Xiang was stunned, greatly alarmed, his face full of shock.
He suddenly recalled Zhang Chen's inexplicable inquiry before and finally understood the entanglement, silently resenting Zhang Chen, "This guy truly stirs up trouble wherever he goes."
"Quickly step aside, we want to catch that little thief and bring him to your uncle for punishment." Another scholar spoke, his tone icy.
"Right, the thief who harmed your uncle is right before you. Why obstruct us for no reason? Do you want to be an unfilial son?"
...
The great scholars from the Confucian sect pressured him with great momentum, leaving Zhong Xiang no choice but to instruct his men to step aside: "You all are the elders of our Confucian sect. I shall step aside, but I must say one thing in advance, Zhang Chen fled into the Ancient Divine Demon Tomb. The tomb is extremely dangerous. If you encounter any terrifying events inside, don't say I didn't warn you, and do not blame me."
Hearing that there truly was an Ancient Divine Demon Tomb and that the entrance was discovered, everyone present immediately perked up, eyes filled with greed. Liu Lin patted his chest confidently, saying, "Don't worry. For us, we have long since embraced the spirit of sacrificing for righteousness. We might die, but the little thief who harmed your uncle must be captured."
"That's right. Even if we must enter the tomb and be shattered, we must avenge your uncle."
...
Then a group of people found ropes and marched mightily towards the cave's interior.
Prince Zhang Xiaohua glanced at Zhong Xiang, showing a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "Zhong Xiang, it was right to have cleared the path early on, why make it come to this."
Zhong Xiang stood at the cave's entrance, fists tightly clenched, silently allowing the crowd to proceed with their actions.
Until the last person from Prince Pingbian's Mansion, Mr. Wuliu, also entered the tomb, Chen Xu, standing beside Zhong Xiang, nervously whispered, "Young master, is it really okay to pit them all in there? The identities and status of these hundreds are not trivial, entangled in a vast web of interests. If any trouble arises, we might be drowned in their accusations."
Chen Xu was worried that these people might trouble them after coming out, and Zhong Xiang wouldn't be able to handle it, creating great trouble.
"I, the Southern Qilin, am no pushover. Before entering the tomb, I had already analyzed the pros and cons for them, yet they still wanted to enter righteously. What could I do?" Zhong Xiang said somewhat gleefully, "Moreover, with fewer people inside, how can we find a way to break the curse?"
"Wait here, I'll go in to watch the show," Zhong Xiang said.
As he spoke, Zhong Xiang followed the crowd and jumped into the pit.
At this time, the group held torches and excitedly progressed through the Ancient Great Tomb. Upon reaching a fork, they saw traces left by Zhang Chen and Zhong Xiang previously and directly rushed over without further ado, heading towards the main burial chamber.
The group moved quickly, and with their numbers and momentum, they feared no traps within the tomb, racing wildly inside. They smoothly reached the main burial chamber and spotted the Longevity Willow Tree from afar.
"That's the Longevity Willow Tree! It can extend one's lifespan, even reverting youth! For those who cultivate the Yin Spirit, using this to anchor the Yin Spirit, they can eternally exist even after losing their physical body," Mr. Wuliu identified the origin of the willow at first glance.
At this moment, the group spread out, looking at the circular platform with intense eyes.
"No, the willow has been hollowed out, and within it lies the corpse of an Ancient Divine Demon. Inside that giant willow must be unimaginable Creation, certainly extraordinary burial artifacts," Zhang Xiaohua's eyes burned with desire at this moment.
"Let's rely on our skills for this treasure!" Someone, already blinded by the treasure, directly performed a Soul Emergence, flying towards the circular platform.
