The scroll slowly unfolded and a mysterious force rippled out. A ray of light shot up into the sky. With a point of Cui San 'er's finger, the light fell on Tang Zheng's body.
Huh?
Tang Zheng's body tensed up and he turned pale with fright. A strong suction force was firmly attracting him.
"What's going on?"
He hurriedly looked at the scroll above his head. It had been completely unfolded. The vast mountains and rivers in the scroll were vivid and lifelike, as if they were real.
A whirlpool appeared in the center of the scroll, firmly attracting Tang Zheng, trying to suck him in.
"I must not be sucked in." Although Tang Zheng did not understand what the scroll was, he knew that being sucked in was not a good thing.
He hurriedly circulated his Qi, circulating it through his eight extraordinary meridians to resist the suction force.
Huh?
Cui San 'er was shocked to see that his tried and tested killing move did not have an immediate effect. A ruthless look flashed across his face as he said, "Your Third Master wants to see how you can resist my Mountain River Map of the Gods of Earth and Vale."
As soon as his voice fell, the suction force suddenly increased. Tang Zheng knew that something was wrong. He roared and pushed his palms above his head.
Whoosh!
A strong suction force also formed in his palms.
Sky Swallowing Technique!
8，
Since the Mountain River Map was a gravitational force, then he would use gravity against gravity.
As expected, once the Sky Swallowing Technique was used, the pressure suddenly decreased. War Spirit followed closely behind. With a slash of the sword, the turbulent airflow scattered in all directions.
Cui San 'er could not stand steadily and sat on the ground.
Without Cui San 'er's support, the Mountain River Map floated down. Tang Zheng jumped and caught it.
"Don't touch my treasure, quickly return it to me." Seeing this, Cui San 'er hysterically shouted and wanted to circulate his Qi. However, how could Tang Zheng give him the chance? A cold light flashed in his hand and War Spirit flew out, piercing through Cui San' er's chest.
"Oh my god!" Wu Laoer, who had been sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, was so scared that he ran away. This scene was completely beyond his understanding, and his heart was instantly filled with fear.
Tang Zheng glanced at Wu Laoer, who had already rushed into the darkness ahead. He didn't immediately chase after him. Instead, he carefully observed the scroll in his hand.
The scroll was about half a meter long, and various mountains and rivers were drawn on it. Moreover, most of them were not mountains and rivers in Hua Xia's reality, which made Tang Zheng quite surprised.
There was a mysterious fluctuation of spiritual energy on the painting.
"Could it be that the treasure Cui San 'er obtained from the Grand Myriad Mountains was this Stately Painting? Did he find this ancient tomb just by relying on this map? "
Professor Qi also came over and stared straight at the painting. His eyes lit up as he looked at the bright stars in the sky.
"This … I've never seen such a magical painting. Look at the river, the water is actually flowing. And that forest, the branches and leaves are swaying as if they're being blown by the wind …" Professor Qi was already dumbfounded as he cried out in surprise.
Tang Zheng fixed his eyes on it. Sure enough, he didn't notice this clue just now.
Every blade of grass and every tree in the Stately Painting seemed to have vitality. This kind of thing had never been seen or heard of before.
"This … is a miracle!" Professor Qi smacked his lips, and his jaw almost fell to the ground.
Professor Qi couldn't help but rub the painting, but there was nothing. The attraction just now had already disappeared without a trace.
"Tang Zheng, can you see the secret inside?"
Tang Zheng shook his head. He was experienced and knowledgeable, but he had never seen such a magical painting.
"Professor Qi, let's go back and study it carefully. Let's catch up first. There must be more things over there," Tang Zheng reminded.
Professor Qi's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement. "Yes, that Wu Laoer has already escaped. We must catch up to prevent him from destroying more cultural relics."
Tang Zheng casually threw the Stately Painting into the Sumeru Bag. Huh? Suddenly, he exclaimed. The Stately Painting didn't react at all.
"What's the matter? Why can't it be put into the Sumeru Bag?"
Tang Zheng had never encountered such a situation before. Even a colossal figure like the Venerable Ideologist could be put into the Sumeru Bag, but this small painting couldn't be put in. This was too strange.
After hearing Tang Zheng's explanation, Professor Qi was also dumbfounded. He shook his head and said, "This is a matter for you cultivators. I really don't know the reason."
Since it couldn't be put in the bag, Tang Zheng simply took out a backpack and carried it close to his body. Then, he set off with Professor Qi.
The stars above their heads shone, but the light was very dim. The two of them were prepared and took out their flashlights. Under their feet was a flat road paved with green bricks. It was like a huge square.
As far as the flashlight's light could reach, it was still an empty square. It was barren, and there was nothing in it. It couldn't illuminate the sides at all.
"How big is this place?" Professor Qi couldn't help but exclaim.
Tang Zheng said solemnly, "There are too many strange things in this ancient tomb."
Professor Qi was incomparably excited. "Strange things mean that it's magical. That's why there are so many new discoveries."
After walking for a long time, they still didn't see Wu Laoer's figure. Just as the two of them were about to lose hope, a huge phantom vaguely appeared in the distance.
This phantom was tall and large, and its outline was very frightening. However, it was too far away to see clearly.
Tang Zheng was overjoyed. They finally found the building. With a target, the two of them were energized and quickly ran toward the target.
Finally, everything in front of them became clear. The colossal figure also revealed its true appearance. The two of them were startled and subconsciously stopped in their tracks.
"This …"
The two of them looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with shock.
This was actually a huge altar. How big was it?
It was as big as ten main courts!
"Painting!"
The two of them immediately remembered the painting that the grave robber sold to Old Wei. There was such an altar in it. Moreover, it looked like it was the same one.
Could that painting be describing the scene in front of them?
The two of them quickly remembered another scene in the painting. A group of people were building a magnificent palace. In front of the altar, there was a dense crowd wearing bronze masks.
The two of them immediately raised their flashlights and shone it over. The altar was too big. They couldn't see clearly what was behind the altar. They couldn't see if there was a crowd of bronze masks behind the altar.
"That painting must be a documentary of the construction of this ancient tomb. It was just stolen by the grave robbers." Professor Qi concluded.
Tang Zheng nodded. His thoughts were similar to Professor Qi's.
"Doesn't that mean there's a palace behind it?" Tang Zheng pointed at the back of the altar and said.
Professor Qi muttered, "It's possible."
Tang Zheng sucked in a breath of cold air. The painting clearly depicted the appearance of the palace, which towered into the clouds as if it was on par with the heavens.
How magnificent it must be!
"Tang Zheng, take me to the altar." Professor Qi's eyes lit up with excitement. He looked up and stared at the altar.
"Go up?"
"Yes, this is the place where the ancients worshipped. There are many secrets that can be found in this kind of place. We can't miss it. We have to see it first. Moreover, there were so many traps at the entrance of this ancient tomb. However, it was safe and there was no danger. This is very unusual. Therefore, we can't take the risk. We have to figure out the situation first. "Professor Qi said seriously.
Seeing that he was so cautious, Tang Zheng thought for a while and agreed.
"Then hold on tight." Tang Zheng lifted Professor Qi's shoulder, and with a tap of his toes, he flew up to the top of the altar.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Professor Qi heard the sound of the wind. He looked up subconsciously and found that they were getting higher and higher. His heart beat faster.
He took a deep breath and drove away his fear. He looked up excitedly.
The top of the altar was close at hand.
Bang!
Tang Zheng's feet landed on the ground. The dull sound of his footsteps was very obvious in the empty space. It gave the two people a fright.
Tang Zheng put down Professor Qi and took a deep breath. He looked up and realized more clearly that the altar was extraordinary. What shocked him even more was that the altar seemed to be a whole. It was made of a huge stone. With Tang Zheng's knowledge, he had never heard of such a huge and complete stone in the world.
Hiss!
He took a deep breath and circulated his Genuine Qi to guard against the unexpected.
Professor Qi was already squatting on the ground and studying it. There were many complicated patterns on the ground. They were not very beautiful. They were very thick and curved, giving people a strange feeling.
Tang Zheng had seen the square of the Witch Tribe in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. That square contained divine power. Not only did it have the Four Symbols Venerables, but it also had the Heaven and Earth Mystic Stone.
This altar was probably as magical as the Mystic Stone. He did not dare to be careless.
Professor Qi lowered his eyebrows and did not say anything. His thick eyebrows were deeply furrowed. He followed the patterns on the altar and ran forward. After a while, he stopped and continued to run.
Tang Zheng looked at him suspiciously and did not leave his side. He did not know what he had discovered.
Suddenly, Tang Zheng stopped and grabbed Professor Qi who wanted to rush forward again. Professor Qi was caught and shouted in dissatisfaction: "Tang Zheng, what are you doing? Let go of me."
Tang Zheng pulled Professor Qi behind him and cautiously said, "Professor Qi, don't be impatient."
Hearing this, Professor Qi finally calmed down and asked: "What's wrong?"
"There's someone!" Tang Zheng said.
"Someone?" Professor Qi was shocked. How could there be other people in this place? Could it be Old Wu? Over Tang Zheng's shoulder, Professor Qi finally saw that person. It was definitely not Old Wu.
Although it was only a back view, it gave people a completely different feeling.
"This … Who is it?" Professor Qi swallowed his saliva and asked.
Tang Zheng shook his head and said: "Let's go up and take a look."
Since he had met someone, he couldn't just turn a blind eye. The two of them walked towards the opposite side. That person kept looking into the distance like a piece of wood, not reacting at all.
But when the two of them were still more than ten steps away, that person moved. He suddenly turned around and his eyes were as sharp as a peerless treasure sword, almost blinding people.
He was very particular about his clothes and his outfit was exquisite. His clothes were tailored very well, and even his nails were cut very neatly, just like a woman.
But he was a man, a very exquisite man. If a man used the word exquisite, then he must be extraordinary.
