The situation inside the cave was similar to what he expected. The ground and the stone walls on both sides were very flat and made of huge stones. Small black holes appeared from time to time, and some rotten arrows fell on the ground.
There was obviously a mechanism in this wall, but it had already been triggered and broken by someone.
Seeing this situation, Shen Luo knew that many cultivators must have come here over the years. He couldn't help but relax a little, but he didn't speed up and still moved forward at the same pace as before.
After walking forward for a while, the passage finally came to an end. A stone room appeared in front of him. The two doors had long been destroyed and fell to the ground.
The stone room was very large, about a thousand feet in size. It was built very tall and grand, but it was very empty. Besides a few huge stone pillars, some gravel, and a few overturned stone statues of soldiers and horses, there was nothing else. He didn't know if they had all been taken away or not.
The walls on both sides of the stone room were carved with many beautiful paintings. The paintings were very bright and seemed to be describing the life of the tomb's owner.
However, these murals were also damaged and couldn't be seen clearly. They seemed to be telling the story of the tomb's owner on the battlefield.
Shen Luo looked at these murals a few times, but soon lost interest and looked elsewhere in the room.
He saw that in the depths of the stone room, there were three other passages leading in different directions. They were also bottomless and led to unknown places.
Lu Huaming had never been to this ancient tomb, so he didn't know much about the situation here. He didn't give him any guidance, so he could only rely on himself.
Shen Luo pondered for a moment, then chose the leftmost passage and walked in.
This passage was quite long, and it took him four or five hundred feet to reach the end. At the end of the passage was another stone room, but the area was much smaller. The interior layout was similar to the previous stone room.
Of course, this place was also very empty. Obviously, the things inside had been taken away or destroyed.
Moreover, this stone room also had three passages leading in three directions.
Seeing this scene, Shen Luo couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, but soon he calmed down. After a moment of silence, he chose a passage and continued forward.
The following situation was the same as before. Every time he moved forward along a passage, he would come across a stone room, and this stone room must have two or three passages leading forward.
Shen Luo was a little surprised at first, but after a few times, he gradually calmed down.
After walking through a few passages, he vaguely felt that these passages seemed to lead underground, and the Baleful Yin Qi was getting thicker.
At this point, there were fewer and fewer traces of destruction in the passageway and stone room. It was obvious that not many people had come here.
However, up until now, he had yet to encounter a single ghost.
"Could it be that we haven't reached the depths of the tomb?" Shen Luo was secretly shocked. The surface of this ancient tomb looked fine, but the interior was far larger than he had expected.
He continued to walk along a passage. After walking for a while, the ground under his feet suddenly moved. A black shadow leaped up from the ground and pounced on his face.
"Bang!" A muffled shattering sound was heard!
Shen Luo sidestepped, and dodged the opponent's attack. Then, he chopped out with the cyan short axe in his hand. Streaks of cyan lightning appeared on the axe, and hacked at the black shadow.
The black shadow was cleanly cut into two parts, and fell to the ground. It was a grayish-black skeletal ghost. Its lower body didn't move, but its upper body jumped up from the ground and fled into the distance.
How could Shen Luo let it escape? Just as he was about to urge the emerald green Ruyi Scepter to chase after it, his eyes suddenly turned. He stopped the spell in his hand, and waved his other hand.
A small black bag flew out from his hand, and caught up with the skeletal ghost in the blink of an eye. It was the Qiankun Bag.
A black halo rolled out from the bag, and covered the ghost. The skeletal ghost immediately became stiff, and couldn't move.
The Qiankun Bag suddenly expanded several times, and covered the skeletal ghost's body.
Shen Luo's mouth curved into a smile. He raised his hand, and the Qiankun Bag quickly shrank to its original size, and flew back to his hand.
Inside the Qiankun Bag was a black space about the size of a house. Countless liquid-like black lights flowed inside.
The skeletal ghost fell into the black space, and the restrictive force on its body suddenly disappeared. It looked around in panic, and then roared. Its two skeletal hands flashed with black light, and like two black knives, they fiercely stabbed at the black space's barrier.
Shen Luo wanted to test the toughness of the Qiankun Bag. He didn't urge the restrictions to imprison the skeletal ghost, and let it struggle inside.
The skeletal ghost's strength wasn't weak. It was comparable to a cultivator in the fifth or sixth layer of qi refining. Although half of its body was cut in half, it still maintained a considerable fighting strength. Its two skeletal hands hit the black barrier, and muffled sounds rang out.
But the black light flowing on the barrier was like slippery oil. When the skeletal ghost's attack landed on the barrier, it immediately slid to the side, and its attack was immediately reduced by seventy to eighty percent. The black barrier was also very tough, like a thick cowhide. No matter how the skeletal ghost attacked, it didn't move at all, and showed no signs of breaking.
"Not bad." Shen Luo sensed the situation and nodded. He no longer allowed the ghost to attack, and with a thought, he urged the restrictions to attack.
A dark green light spewed out, enveloping the skeletal ghost.
The skeletal ghost's body seemed to have been splashed with extremely corrosive acid, and it quickly began to melt.
The ghost's eyes were filled with fear, and it fled in all directions.
But the space inside the bag was effective, and the skeletal ghost's actions were futile. Its already damaged body quickly melted, and it completely collapsed to the ground.
The dark green light enveloped the ghost, and after a few breaths, the skeletal ghost's body completely melted, and it turned into a pool of black mucus.
Shen Luo sucked in a breath of cold air. The Yin Poison Qi inside the bag was actually so powerful. One had to know that ghosts had a strong resistance to strong poisons, but the poisonous qi inside the bag actually melted it in a few breaths.
Of course, the more powerful the bag was, the better. He happily called the Qiankun Bag back into his sleeve, and continued forward.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
Shen Luo sat cross-legged in a passage to rest. He took out a pill to restore his magic power and consumed it, then circulated his energy to refine it.
He thoroughly understood the scale of this ancient tomb. The internal passages were winding, and there were several forks in the road from time to time, leading in all directions. It was like an underground maze.
In this half a day, he had passed through countless stone chambers and passages, but he still hadn't explored the bottom of the ancient tomb.
During this time, he had also gained a lot. He found many Yin Attribute spiritual materials, and also encountered some ghosts.
Unfortunately, these ghosts were relatively weak. The most powerful ones were only in the middle stage of Inedia, and they weren't suitable for him.
Moreover, after searching for a long time, he only encountered ghosts of this level. No matter how deep he went into the ancient tomb, he couldn't find any more powerful ghosts.
