There seemed to be some sort of mysterious power within the tomb.
Although a hole was opened, it was difficult for the lake water to enter.
"Let's go, hurry and enter!"
Little Fatty called out and led everyone in a single file.
When he saw that, Su Zimo no longer fought against the Bloodthirsty Silverfishes and retreated. Like a swimming fish, he left behind a trail in the lake water.
In the blink of an eye, he had already charged through the stone door.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Shi Jian could not help but praise, "Brother Su's combat strength and movement technique don't seem to be affected at all in the lake water. Truly impressive!"
Su Zimo was puzzled about that as well.
Normally speaking, demon beasts on land, including human cultivators, would definitely be affected in combat strength and movement techniques the moment they entered the water.
After all, most demon beasts and cultivators lived on land all year round and their body structures and habits were completely different from those of underwater lifeforms.
It was difficult for them to adapt to an unfamiliar environment like the water.
Furthermore, the resistance underwater was extremely strong and the deeper one entered, the more obvious the resistance would be!
However, for some reason, Su Zimo did not seem to feel the resistance despite being in the lake water and adapted to it almost instantly.
It was as though his body was one with the lake water around him.
It was as though he was born and bred in the water!
Of course, that doubt merely flashed through Su Zimo's mind and he did not think too much about it.
After everyone entered the tomb, the Bloodthirsty Silverfishes swarmed forward. However, they paused in their tracks when they arrived before the Nine Palace Diagram with wary expressions, not daring to advance.
After lingering for a while, the Bloodthirsty Silverfishes gradually dispersed.
Rumble!
Bang! Right then, the stone door fell slowly and sealed the tomb once more!
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief and looked around.
Directly in front of them was a spacious passageway, tall and imposing.
On the walls on both sides, there was a fist-sized night pearl embedded every hundred feet.
The luminous pearls illuminated the entire tunnel as if it were daytime!
"Wow, these are all good stuff!"
Linghu stared at the night pearls above his head and almost drooled.
"Fatty, you're really something."
Shi Jian thumped Little Fatty on the shoulder and praised, "You've really learned a lot in Tomb Sect over the years!"
Regardless of the method used to locate the tomb, or the complicated steps Just Now at the entrance of the tomb, they all left the crowd in awe!
If not for Little Fatty leading the way, they would not have been able to find this place even after a hundred years in the Primordial Battlefield.
Even if they found it, they definitely wouldn't be able to enter!
This great opportunity could be considered as a gift from Little Fatty to everyone present.
"Heh."
Little Fatty smiled and said nothing.
Su Zimo frowned slightly.
There was something wrong with Little Fatty's situation.
Just Now that he was at the entrance of the Great Necropolis and saw the Nine Palaces Diagram, Little Fatty stared in shock for a long time, his expression extremely unsightly.
Now that they had successfully entered the Great Tomb, given Little Fatty's temperament, he would be jumping for joy by now.
However, at this moment, his mood was somewhat low.
"What's wrong?"
Su Zimo asked, "Did something happen?"
Little Fatty grit his teeth. "We might be too late."
The moment Linghu heard that, he panicked and asked hurriedly, "What do you mean by we're late?"
Little Fatty said in a deep voice, "I didn't see any suspicious traces along the way and thought that we were the first to arrive. However, the Nine Palaces Diagram at the entrance of the tomb has already been revealed. It's clear that someone has beaten us to it! "
"Ah?
Everyone's eyes were filled with bewilderment.
Little Fatty explained, "After tens of thousands of years, there should be a thick layer of mud and dust on the ground at the entrance of the Great Necropolis. However, the Nine Palaces Diagram is clear and it's clear that someone has been here in advance to wipe away the mud and dust."
"Even if it's wiped away, he might not be able to enter,"
The Golden Lion said, "The Nine Palaces Diagram is so complicated. How many people in this world can decipher it?"
At that point, the Golden Lion suddenly went silent.
Everyone exchanged glances and the same thought flashed through their minds.
If Little Fatty could find this place and decipher the seal of the Nine Palaces Diagram, it meant that there was a high chance that Little Fatty's senior brother would be able to decipher it as well!
Instantly, everyone's joy was mostly gone.
If Little Fatty's senior brother was here first, he would definitely not leave any treasures for them and the utmost treasure of Tomb Sect would naturally be taken away by him as well.
"Ugh!"
Sighing, the spirit tiger lowered its head dejectedly and mumbled, "How frustrating. I made a wasted trip."
Linghu looked at the Night Illumination Pearls above his head. "Should we dig out these Night Illumination Pearls? We can't return empty-handed …"
Qing Qing frowned and kicked Linghu gently to shut him up.
"If your senior brother was the one who came in first, he does have some tricks up his sleeves."
Su Zimo said deeply, "When we entered the lake, we did not sense any blood stench nor did we see any signs of fighting."
"This proves that this person managed to sneak past the detection of the Ancient Frost Sharks, Bloodthirsty Silverfishes and many other extinct living beings to successfully enter this tomb!"
At that point, a thought flashed through Su Zimo's mind.
However, he could not recall anything after thinking about it carefully.
The little fatty shook his head and said, "I know that senior brother of mine very well. His battle prowess is indeed a notch above mine, but it's not to the extent where he can appear and disappear unpredictably. There should be an expert helping him."
"Let's go,"
Su Zimo said, "Since we're already here, we have to go in and take a look no matter what. We can't just turn around and leave."
Little Fatty took a deep breath of air and nodded. "Let's listen to you, boss. Let's go in!"
Little Fatty walked at the front in case anything happened.
After all, he was the only one who knew what traps, formations and restrictions there were in this tomb.
Su Zimo was at the back of the group and followed behind.
The tunnel was extremely long and Su Zimo walked forward. Although it was brightly lit, the surroundings were silent and the only sounds were their footsteps echoing eerily.
Su Zimo did not let down his guard the entire time and his expression turned increasingly grim.
Little Fatty's senior brother was even scarier than he had imagined!
Along the way, he did not discover any traces left behind by that person.
If Little Fatty had not noticed something amiss at the entrance of the tomb, none of them would have known that someone had already been here!
After walking for a while more, they finally arrived at the end of the tunnel and their vision cleared up.
A tall and spacious tomb chamber stood before everyone.
In the four corners of the tomb chamber, there were four bronze coffins that were filled with a lifeless aura.
On the wall opposite the tomb chamber, there were 16 tunnels that were dark and deep without the illumination of the Night Illumination Pearls.
Everyone had a rough understanding of the methods of the tomb master.
The tomb chamber before them was definitely not the main tomb. Of the 16 tunnels, only one was correct!
If they took the wrong path, they might never be able to return!
Little Fatty stood on the spot and calculated for a long time before pointing to the seventh tunnel from the left and saying, "Let's go this way!"
With that said, Little Fatty was about to step into the tomb chamber.
Su Zimo frowned slightly and said with a grim expression, "There's something strange about this tomb chamber. Everyone, be careful!"
