Ji Tianxing had just woken up when he saw Yun Yao next to him.
Seeing that she looked a little tired, he said gently, "Eldest Senior Sister, you've been protecting me while I was sleeping and cultivating. Thank you for your hard work."
Yun Yao stared at him. Her eyes and emotions were very calm. She said naturally, "There's no need to thank me between you and me."
Ji Tianxing nodded. There was a gentle smile in his eyes. He asked again, "Eldest Senior Sister, how long have I been sleeping?"
"Three days." Yun Yao stood up. She used her power to shake off the dust on her white dress. She returned to her fairy-like appearance.
Ji Tianxing frowned and said softly, "I've been sleeping for three days? The Nine Cauldrons Universe Formation can only be temporarily closed for three and a half days. "
"Eldest Senior Sister, we only have half a day left. We have to leave as soon as possible!"
"Okay." Yun Yao nodded in agreement.
After a pause, she asked again, "Tianxing, the ancient tomb is so big. Aren't you going to explore other places?"
"Moreover, this is a Kenshin tomb and there are Kenshin relics here."
"Don't you want to know if the Kenshin remains are buried here?"
Ji Tianxing thought for a while and made up his mind. "Then let's set the time limit at six hours. When the time is up, we have to leave regardless of whether we find anything or not."
"Okay, let's get started then." Yun Yao agreed.
Then, the two of them left the empty and dark hall and entered a dark passage. They continued to travel through the ancient tomb and explore more places.
There were hundreds of passages in the ancient tomb. They were crisscrossed and stacked on top of each other. It was as complicated as a fishing net.
However, Ji Tianxing had already understood the mystery of the maze. He could always find the right passage quickly and accurately.
In the next six hours, he led Yun Yao through the passageway and found a few more side halls and stone rooms.
In the smaller side halls, there were only some strange statues, but no useful clues.
There were several stone rooms with reliefs and words carved into the walls. They recorded the deeds of Emperor Ye when he was young and received guidance from Kenshin.
Other than that, the two of them did not find any other treasures, nor did they find Kenshin's coffin or remains.
Six hours were almost up. Ji Tianxing stopped searching and led Yun Yao through the passage to the edge of the ancient tomb.
While the two of them were walking in the tunnel, Yun Yao had also analyzed the results.
"It seems that this mausoleum of Kenshin that Renhuang Ye built is not a true mausoleum of Kenshin, but a cenotaph."
Ji Tianxing had already guessed this, so he nodded and explained, "When Renhuang Ye was young, he was fortunate enough to receive guidance from Kenshin, which is why he is so respectful of Kenshin."
"Although Kenshin only gave him some small guidance, it changed his life and made him a top cultivator in the Tianchen Region."
"Renhuang Ye regarded Kenshin as his teacher. After he learned of Kenshin's death, he built a cenotaph at the foot of Longshan to commemorate and remember Kenshin."
After listening to his explanation, Yun Yao finally understood the origin of the ancient tomb on Longshan and understood the whole story.
"I see."
Not long after, the two of them returned to the passage that they had just entered the ancient tomb.
Yun Yao took out two Earth Escape Talismans. The two of them used the power of the talismans to leave the dark passage and return to the surface.
Outside the ancient tomb, at the entrance of the Tianyuan Formation.
Chu Huaishan and several deacons stared at the dark ancient tomb. Their eyes were filled with anxiety and worry.
The deacons were on tenterhooks and discussing in low voices.
"It's already the fourth day. Why haven't Tianxing and Yun Yao come out yet?"
"Ever since the two of them entered the ancient tomb, there hasn't been any movement inside. Could something have happened?"
"This ancient tomb has a history of thousands of years and is protected by the Tianyuan Formation. It must be extremely dangerous. I'm really worried that Tianxing and Yun Yao can't handle it."
"Don't say such discouraging words. Let's wait patiently. I believe in Tianxing and Yun Yao."
Chu Huaishan's expression was solemn. He was silently considering whether to send a message to the Sect Leader.
Even if he knew that Yun Yao and Ji Tianxing were top geniuses who possessed talent and wisdom that ordinary warriors could not imagine.
However, it had been four days, and Yun Yao and Ji Tianxing still hadn't shown up. There was no news at all. How could he not be anxious?
After weighing the pros and cons for a long time, he finally made up his mind.
He would wait for two more hours at most. If there was still no news from Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao, he would send a message to the Sect Leader and ask him to make a decision.
At this moment, he suddenly saw two rays of yellow light shining behind the huge tombstone in the dark ancient tomb.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
After the two rays of yellow light faded, two figures in white robes appeared.
Although they were far away, the two figures were a little hazy. Chu Huaishan couldn't see them clearly.
However, he was sure that the two figures were Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao.
"Great! They're finally out! "
Chu Huaishan finally heaved a sigh of relief. The heavy burden in his heart was finally lifted.
The anxious and worried Deacons also showed a relieved expression, and their faces were full of smiles.
"That's great! They're fine! "
"I wonder if the two of them made any discoveries or gains in the tomb?"
"Don't worry about that. It's good that they're out!"
"That's right. If anything happens to them, we won't be able to explain it to the Sect Leader."
The deacons discussed for a while, and their moods relaxed.
After a while, Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao walked out along the black stone path. They crossed the entrance of the Tianyuan Spell Formation and returned to Chu Huaishan and the rest.
"Tianxing, Yun Yao, you're finally out!"
Chu Huaishan quickly greeted them and said with a relieved expression.
Ji Tianxing saluted him and greeted him.
"Elder Chu, deacons, sorry to keep you waiting!"
Chu Huaishan and the deacons looked at the two of them. They were really relieved when they saw that the two of them were unharmed.
However, everyone's eyes were focused on Ji Tianxing. They looked at him carefully, and there was a strange look in their eyes.
All of them were Origin Core powerhouses. Naturally, they could see that Ji Tianxing's figure, appearance, and temperament seemed to be different from four days ago.
When Chu Huaishan used his Spiritual Sense to check Ji Tianxing's strength, his face was filled with shock and he let out a cry of disbelief.
"Tianxing! You … You've reached the Origin Core Stage? "
The Deacons' bodies trembled, and they were all shocked. They stared at Ji Tianxing with their eyes wide open, as if they were looking at a monster.
"My God! You've broken through to the Origin Core Stage in just three to four days? "
"Moreover, you're at the third level of the Origin Core Stage?!"
"I've been cultivating for more than 50 years to reach the third level of the Origin Core Stage. That's why I can be a deacon in the sect. Tianxing, you're only 17 years old, and you … Sigh!"
"Tianxing, what great opportunity did you get in the ancient tomb? You actually reached the third level of the Origin Core Stage from the ninth level of the Mystic Enlightenment Stage? "
"This is unbelievable! This is a miracle! "
"If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it!"
"Yun Yao reached the Origin Core Stage at the age of 19 and is known as the number one genius in the Heavenly Stellar Region. Tianxing reached the Origin Core Stage at the age of 17. Isn't he an even greater genius?"
"Hahaha, the heavens are protecting our Sky Pillar Sect! With these two peerless geniuses, Yun Yao and Tianxing, our sect will prosper! "
Chu Huaishan and the elders were excited. They discussed excitedly and let out waves of exclamations.
Everyone compared him to Yun Yao. Yun Yao didn't feel embarrassed. She was happy for him.
Ji Tianxing was praised by the deacons, but he wasn't arrogant. His expression was still indifferent.
