The next morning, Xia Ruofei, Song Wei, and Ling Qingxue had breakfast together. After cleaning up, they went straight to the rooftop.
What surprised Xia Ruofei was that Li Yifu was already standing on the rooftop waiting for them.
The wind on the island was very strong. Li Yifu's white beard was messed up by the wind, but he was still motionless. It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time.
"Greetings, Grand Martial Uncle! Greetings, Grand Martial Aunts! "Li Yifu greeted the three respectfully.
Xia Ruofei frowned and said, "Yifu, didn't I say yesterday that you didn't need to send us off? Why are you still here? "
"Grand Martial Uncle is going out, how can this disciple not send you off? This is unreasonable! "Li Yifu said with his head bowed.
Xia Ruofei was angry and amused at the same time. Seeing Li Yifu's appearance, he was slightly touched. He softened his tone and asked, "How long have you been here?"
"This disciple didn't know when Grand Martial Uncle would leave, so I cultivated on the rooftop last night." Li Yifu said respectfully.
"You, you …" Xia Ruofei pointed at Li Yifu with a helpless look on his face.
However, Xia Ruofei didn't know what to say to him. In the end, he could only smile bitterly and say, "Okay … You are considerate …"
No matter what he said, he didn't listen. He promised well, but in the end, he still did things his own way. Xia Ruofei couldn't do anything about it. He couldn't really punish Li Yifu for this kind of thing.
As the saying goes, people don't blame others for being polite!
"Wei Wei, Qingxue, let's go!" Xia Ruofei said.
After that, he took out the Obsidian Airship.
The airship quickly enlarged and then quietly floated above the rooftop.
Xia Ruofei and the other two lightly jumped onto the airship.
"This disciple respectfully sends Grand Martial Uncle off!" Li Yifu immediately bowed.
Xia Ruofei stood on the deck and waved his hand and said, "You can go back! We are leaving! Guard Taoyuan Island well, call me if there is anything! "
"Yes, Martial Granduncle!" Li Yifu said.
Xia Ruofei didn't say anything else. With a thought, he communicated with the control core of the flying boat. The Obsidian Flying Ship immediately trembled slightly, and then its speed rapidly increased, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
The Obsidian Airship streaked across the ocean like a meteor, heading in the direction of Huaxia.
Xia Ruofei and the other two did not return to the cabin. Instead, they stood on the deck and looked down at the endless sea below.
Song Wei said, "Ruofei, this trip to Mount Yu's ancient tomb shouldn't be like the last time …"
The last time Song Wei and Xia Ruofei explored the ancient tomb of Mount Yu, it could be said that they were surrounded by perils. At that time, Song Wei was still an ordinary person without any cultivation, and Xia Ruofei was only at the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Such a combination dared to explore Mount Yu's ancient tomb. In retrospect, they were really ignorant and fearless.
At that time in the ancient tomb, the two of them were in danger at every step. The slightest mistake at any point would have killed them on the spot.
In particular, Song Wei was almost possessed by that strange spirit. At that time, Xia Ruofei was no match for that spirit. If that mysterious old man hadn't appeared and forced them, not only would Song Wei have been possessed, but even Xia Ruofei would not have been able to escape.
Therefore, Song Wei still felt some lingering fear when he thought about it.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I don't dare to guarantee this, but what I can be sure of is that our strength is no longer what it used to be. Even if there is danger, we should be able to deal with it properly."
In fact, Xia Ruofei didn't tell Song Wei that in the ancient tomb of Mount Yu, after the skeleton-like senior forced the spirit to retreat, before sending Xia Ruofei and Song Wei out of the ancient tomb, he warned him not to come back again before he broke through to the Nascent Soul realm. Otherwise, his life would be in danger.
Song Wei didn't know these words because he was in a coma at that time.
This was also the reason why Xia Ruofei didn't want to explore Mount Yu's ancient tomb even though his cultivation had been improving over the past few years.
However, after breaking through to the late Gold Core stage this time, Xia Ruofei was more confident in his strength. The "Great Tao Secret Art" was much stronger than ordinary cultivation methods, and his spiritual force was comparable to that of a middle Nascent Soul realm cultivator. In terms of comprehensive strength, he felt that he should be comparable to Chen Nanfeng.
Moreover, he knew that the path of cultivation couldn't be taken too easily. For example, if he waited until he broke through to the Nascent Soul realm and knew that he was in the late Nascent Soul realm and the Nascent Soul realm before exploring Mount Yu's ancient tomb, there would probably be no danger. However, he might also miss the opportunity to make rapid progress.
Sometimes, taking some risks often yielded unexpected benefits.
Song Wei and Ling Qingxue naturally didn't know that the senior in the ancient tomb had said not to explore it again before the Nascent Soul realm.
Therefore, Ling Qingxue said with a relaxed face, "Weiwei, you've been traumatized! Don't worry so much. Our current cultivation is stronger than Ruofei's, and Ruofei has broken through to the late Gold Core stage. What are you worried about with such a combination? "
Song Wei nodded and said, "Yes! I have confidence in Ruofei! "
"So you don't have confidence in me or in yourself?" Ling Qingxue asked with a faint smile.
"Girl, why are you always so picky?" Song Wei said coquettishly. "Our strength is much weaker than Ruofei's! Of course, Ruofei will be the main force in exploring the ancient tomb this time! "
"That's not necessarily true. Last time in the Mystic Luna Realm, I also played a role, right, Ruofei?" Ling Qingxue said with a smile.
Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said, "Of course! Qingxue's contribution can't go unnoticed! Weiwei, you don't have to belittle yourself. Although your cultivation hasn't broken through to the Gold Core realm, in the entire cultivation world, you are considered the backbone of the strength! "
"Yes! I know! "Song Wei said with a smile.
The three of them didn't enter the cabin. They just stood on the deck and enjoyed the scenery while chatting.
It had to be said that on the deck of the Obsidian Airship, the viewing angle was really invincible.
This was an all-around high-altitude viewing platform with no blind spots. Because of the protective shield, although the Obsidian Airship was moving forward at high speed, there was not even a trace of wind on the deck. It was really comfortable to stand here and enjoy the scenery.
The three of them chatted outside for more than an hour. Finally, at Xia Ruofei's suggestion, they all went into the cabin to rest for a while.
Unknowingly, the Obsidian Airship had entered the inland area. The scenery below the airship changed from the unchanging sea to forests, lakes, and mountains.
The airship was flying very fast. After crossing the coastline, it had arrived in the sky above Xiangnan Province.
Xia Ruofei slightly adjusted the course. After a while, the Obsidian Airship had arrived at Mount Yu. Directly below the airship was the location of the Mount Yu ancient tomb.
However, it was still noon. Xia Ruofei used his mental power to investigate and found that there were still people guarding below. Moreover, it seemed that the security was even stricter than when they explored the ancient tomb. He didn't know if something had happened here later.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei and his two confidantes discussed and decided to wait until the second half of the night to enter the ancient tomb.
As for now, Xia Ruofei simply stopped looking for a place to land. He directly controlled the airship to hover in the air and then cultivated in the cabin with Song Wei and Ling Qingxue.
Anyway, the Obsidian Airship's Invisibility Array could ensure that the ordinary people below couldn't detect their existence at all. Moreover, the airship didn't consume much resources. Even if it hovered for a few days and nights, the little consumption was nothing to Xia Ruofei.
When he was cultivating, time passed very quickly.
Xia Ruofei accompanied Song Wei and Ling Qingxue to cultivate once. Then, he cultivated for a while. It was already late at night outside.
Xia Ruofei raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already two o 'clock in the morning.
This was the time when people were sleepy, so the guards would naturally be more lax than at other times. Xia Ruofei also checked that the small valley where they entered the ancient tomb was not patrolled at night.
Therefore, he said, "Weiwei, Qingxue, it's almost time. Let's go down!"
Ling Qingxue couldn't wait. She said with a smile, "Hurry up! I can't wait! "
Song Wei was somewhat traumatized, but he still nodded and said, "Okay! Let's go down! "
Xia Ruofei controlled the Obsidian Airship to slowly descend. After a while, it accurately hovered a few meters above the small valley.
Xia Ruofei used his mental power to check again to make sure that there was no one else around. Then, he lightly jumped off the airship with Ling Qingxue and Song Wei.
Xia Ruofei put the Obsidian Airship into the Ring-Tu space. Then, he smiled and said to Song Wei, "Weiwei, do you still remember this place?"
The night was very dark, and the moon was hidden in the clouds. The visibility in the valley was very low, but the three of them were all cultivators. Even if there was little light, they could still see very clearly.
Song Wei looked around and said, "This should be the place where we entered the ancient tomb, right? I remember there was an old pine tree not far from here … Yes, there! "
Song Wei pointed to the tree on the right and continued, "The old pine tree is there. Then we should have dug the hole from here … Ruofei, I didn't expect you to remember it so clearly after so long. This landing is too accurate!"
The place where the three of them were standing now was almost exactly where they had dug the hole. There was no deviation at all.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Cultivators are all good at remembering things. This is nothing … You hadn't stepped on the path of cultivation back then. Otherwise, you would have remembered it very clearly now."
Ling Qingxue couldn't help but say, "So, there's a very big underground palace under our feet?"
She looked at the overgrown valley with a curious look on her face. "From the outside, it really doesn't look like it at all!"
"If it could be seen so easily, would the ancient tomb have been preserved until now? It would have been turned upside down by grave robbers! "Xia Ruofei said with a smile." Then let's do it! Let's enter the underground palace first! "
After saying that, Xia Ruofei's mind moved slightly, and he directly took out a Luoyang shovel from the Ring-Tu space.
Song Wei majored in archaeology. Last time, when she accompanied Xia Ruofei to explore the ancient tomb, she brought a Luoyang shovel with her. Xia Ruofei used it to dig the soil, and he felt that it was very convenient. Later, Xia Ruofei simply got two Luoyang shovels and stored them in the Ring-Tu space. This time, it happened to be useful.
Xia Ruofei skillfully put the shovel head on, then rotated and connected the sections of the shovel handle together. Then, without saying anything, he began to dig from the position under his feet.
When Xia Ruofei and Song Wei first came, it took them several hours to dig through.
However, this time, it didn't take so long. On the one hand, Xia Ruofei's cultivation had improved a lot. On the other hand, the hole that they had dug was still there. Before Xia Ruofei left, he just covered the hole with branches and weeds, and then poured a layer of mud over it.
After such a long time, the place had been restored to its original state by nature. Even if someone walked through the weeds here, or even stepped on the top of the hole, they would definitely not notice anything unusual.
After Xia Ruofei dug a few times, the bottom had already touched the branches.
He threw the Luoyang shovel into the Ring-Tu space, then put on gauze gloves and quickly cleaned up the branches and weeds buried below.
A dark hole appeared in front of the three of them.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I'll go down first. You guys wait for my signal before coming down together!"
"Okay!" Song Wei and Ling Qingxue said in unison.
Xia Ruofei cleaned up the hole and put the branches and weeds aside. In a while, they would use these things to cover the hole in case someone passed by during the day.
Xia Ruofei jumped down and directly supported himself on the wall of the hole.
He also found a rotten rope here. This was a safety rope that Xia Ruofei had specially set up. The other end was tied to the old pine tree not far away.
Before Xia Ruofei left here with the unconscious Song Wei on his back, he carefully untied the rope and threw it into the hole. Then, he covered the hole.
Xia Ruofei looked at the rotten rope and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He continued to go down and stepped on the tomb tiles at the top of the underground palace. Then, he sent a voice transmission to inform Song Wei and Ling Qingxue to come down together.
The two confidantes also entered the hole one after the other.
Song Wei was still at the back. Before she came down, she carefully cleaned up the traces of digging and covered the hole with branches and weeds.
Xia Ruofei didn't jump directly into the underground palace. Instead, he used his spiritual power to scan down.
Back then, Xia Ruofei and Song Wei jumped into the underground palace rashly and immediately fell into the trap and kill array.
At that time, Xia Ruofei had just come into contact with array dao and had no practical experience. He was just a newbie.
Now, Xia Ruofei's array dao level was no longer the same as before. He was even much better than some of the so-called array masters in the cultivation world. Therefore, this time, he easily saw the layout and basic principles of the trap and kill array below.
After the investigation, Xia Ruofei was the first to jump into the underground palace. Before landing, Xia Ruofei had already taken out the Blue Traveling Immortal Sword and let the flying sword support him so that he wouldn't touch any of the floor tiles in the tomb corridor.
Xia Ruofei floated in the corridor of the underground palace and sent a voice transmission, "There's no problem. One of you comes down first!"
