"You still have three breaths of time …" the "mummy" said calmly.
Xia Ruofei let out a long sigh of relief, but the spirit body's expression changed drastically. She hurriedly said, "You even …"
"Two breaths!" The "mummy" interrupted the Spirit Body's words and said without any emotion.
The spirit body's face revealed a conflicted expression. Clearly, her heart was in turmoil.
At this moment, the body of the "mummy" sitting in the copper coffin began to glow. Its withered hands, in particular, began to emit a metallic luster.
The spirit body's expression changed as she shouted, "Stop! I give up! "
Clearly, the spirit body had realized that the "mummy" was accumulating energy. She had no doubt that the "mummy" would jump out of the copper coffin without hesitation once the time was up.
When that happened, it would be a battle to the death. Furthermore, there was a high chance that both of them would end up dead.
The spirit body had endured in this cold stone room for two hundred years. Furthermore, she had lived in torment as a pure spirit. It could be seen that she cherished her life very much. Under such pressure, she ultimately didn't dare to take the risk.
The "mummy" seemed to have expected this outcome. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't try to stall for time. Leave that woman's body immediately!"
The spirit body glared at the "mummy" before turning back to glare at Xia Ruofei with murderous intent. Then, she nodded with extreme reluctance.
Xia Ruofei stared fixedly at Song Wei's body. He saw a black fog emerge from her forehead. Then, it quickly escaped into an Eight Trigrams diagram in the corner of the stone room. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
After the spirit body left, Song Wei's body collapsed. Her eyes were tightly shut as she fell to the ground.
Xia Ruofei hurriedly went over to support her. At the same time, he raised his head and said to the "mummy" in the copper coffin, "Senior, thank you for saving me!"
The "mummy's" turbid eyes stared at Xia Ruofei for a long while before he grinned and said, "You are his successor. I definitely can't sit by and do nothing …"
Xia Ruofei's heart trembled slightly. He hurriedly asked, "Senior, may I ask who is this' he 'you are talking about?"
The "mummy" wasn't surprised at all. He chuckled and said, "That guy is still the same as before. He likes to be mysterious and keep people in suspense. However, since he didn't take the initiative to reveal it, I won't expose him. It's better for you to slowly discover it yourself in the future … "
"This …" Xia Ruofei's mind was filled with thoughts. "Alright …"
This' mummy 'in front of him seemed to have some sort of relationship with Xia Ruofei. However, Xia Ruofei was not sure who this' mummy 'was referring to. Could it be the previous owner of the Spirit Map? If that was the case, how could he tell?
The "mummy" seemed to have guessed Xia Ruofei's thoughts. He smiled and said, "Kid, stop guessing. Your lineage's cultivation method is very special. I could clearly sense it even when I was hiding in the copper coffin. That crazy woman didn't have much contact with your lineage, so she only felt a little afraid and didn't discover anything …"
Xia Ruofei immediately understood that the "mummy" was probably talking about the "Dao Arts".
However, the "Dao Arts" was recorded in the inheritance jade talisman. He didn't know if it was the previous owner of the Ring-Tu space or if he had collected it from somewhere else.
From the "mummy's" tone, it seemed that the lineage that inherited the "Dao Arts" was not simple.
Xia Ruofei had too many doubts in his mind. However, the "mummy" didn't seem to want to delve into this topic.
He said directly, "Alright, kid. Your cultivation level is too low. There are many things that you don't know. When it's time for you to know in the future, you will naturally know! Also, I can't open the copper coffin for too long. This place is still too dangerous for you. It's not somewhere you can come now. I'll send you away now! "
Xia Ruofei hurriedly said, "Senior! My friend, she … "
"She's fine," the "mummy said directly. "However, her soul will definitely be damaged. I don't know if that crazy woman did anything when she left. Your lineage is very good at nourishing souls. You should be able to handle it yourself."
Xia Ruofei was at a loss. Was he good at nourishing souls? Why didn't he know? How could he wake up Song Wei? This "mummy's" words made Xia Ruofei feel like she was in the clouds.
However, before he could continue asking, the "mummy" said, "You should leave!"
As soon as his voice fell, Xia Ruofei felt a flash in front of him and closed his eyes subconsciously.
Then he felt a pulling force, as if the world was spinning. Even with his cultivation level, he had no room to resist.
Xia Ruofei heard the voice of the "mummy", "Remember, don't come here again before you break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, your life will be in danger …"
Xia Ruofei's heart trembled. In fact, he knew that this underground palace was full of unknown dangers. What he and Song Wei had seen might only be the tip of the iceberg. He naturally listened to the senior's reminder. This time, he had already gotten what he wanted. He had also unexpectedly obtained a lot of Spirit Crystals and Time Formation Flags. It could be said that he had completed the task beyond expectations. Therefore, before his cultivation level broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, he would definitely not take the risk to go to the underground palace again.
Soon, after the voice of the "mummy" faded, Xia Ruofei felt that the pulling force suddenly disappeared, and the feeling of space disorder also disappeared.
Then he felt a dazzling light and couldn't help but squint his eyes.
The light felt warm on his body. Xia Ruofei immediately understood that he had been directly sent outside by the senior in the bronze coffin. This was the sunlight outside.
Xia Ruofei entered the underground palace in the middle of the night. He didn't know how long he had been inside, but at least it had taken him five or six hours to crack the formation on the stone wall. Therefore, it should be the next day now.
Xia Ruofei felt that there was someone lying next to him. He squinted his eyes and turned his head to look. It was Song Wei, who was unconscious with his eyes closed.
At this moment, Xia Ruofei heard a heart-wrenching voice in his ear. "Ghost!"
…
Fang Laosan was a farmer in Gan Province. Over the years, he had been working for a security company in Yuezhou. Two months ago, he was arranged by the company to be stationed at Mount Yu.
Fang Laosan heard that this used to be an ancient tomb. Later on, some problems occurred and it was sealed off. The government paid for the security company to send people to guard it.
His hometown was near Mount Longhu. Since he was young, he had heard a lot of stories about strange powers and gods. He was actually a little afraid of this mission.
However, the security company also considered the harsh environment in the wilderness, so they gave extra bonuses to the people they sent here. Plus, there were a few other colleagues working with him. Fang Laosan didn't go back home for the Spring Festival. He wanted to earn more money to demolish his old house and rebuild it at the end of the year. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, he mustered up his courage and came to Mount Yu.
After a period of guarding, nothing happened. Fang Laosan's fear gradually dissipated.
They were now patrolling alone during the day. They only patrolled together at night.
Today, it was his turn to patrol around the ancient tomb. He had just turned a corner when he saw two pale people lying at the entrance of the sealed ancient tomb. Their bodies were stained with blood.
Fang Laosan had goosebumps all over his body. He felt his blood rushing to his head.
Even though it was broad daylight, Fang Laosan was still scared out of his wits when he saw this scene. He had just patrolled this area three minutes ago, and he didn't even see a shadow. How could two people appear out of thin air after he had just circled around?
Moreover, they were at the entrance of the ancient tomb. Moreover, their faces were pale. They looked like ghosts no matter how he looked at them.
Fang Laosan let out a howl and frantically ran away, rolling and crawling.
Those security guards who were not patrolling heard Fang Laosan's wailing and howling. They hurriedly rushed out of the temporary housing.
They saw the pale Fang Laosan and went up to him to ask about the situation.
Fang Laosan, on the other hand, couldn't even utter a complete sentence. He just kept muttering, "What the hell … what the hell …".
Finally, under the comforting and questioning of the security guards, Fang Laosan told them what he saw with lingering fear.
They didn't believe him. They thought Fang Laosan was being paranoid. Therefore, they proposed to go and check it out.
Fang Laosan didn't want to go there even if he was beaten to death. Those security guards had no choice but to ask about the location. They went to the small col together.
As expected, they didn't even see a ghost. Therefore, they believed that Fang Laosan was being paranoid and hallucinating.
The security guards thought it was a farce and returned to the temporary housing.
What they didn't expect was that Fang Laosan had already packed his luggage. He directly called the head of security and asked to change his position. If he couldn't change his position, he would resign directly. He even didn't want his salary for these days.
The security guards watched Fang Laosan leave with his luggage without looking back. They couldn't help but look at each other and feel a little scared.
…
Xia Ruofei didn't know that he had been regarded as a ghost. Moreover, it was a ghost that could appear in broad daylight.
After he was discovered by the security guard, he immediately carried the unconscious Song Wei on his back and quickly escaped into the forest.
Xia Ruofei watched from afar as a group of security guards came over to check on the situation. After they left empty-handed, he carried Song Wei on his back and circled to the entrance of the underground palace that they had dug out last night.
The rope was still quietly hanging down the hole. Xia Ruofei looked at the dark hole, but he didn't have the courage to go down again.
He placed Song Wei under a tree and let her lie flat on her back. Then, he untied the rope and threw it into the hole. He took out a shovel and quickly filled up the hole. Finally, he found some branches and weeds to cover up the traces one by one.
He believed that as long as there was a heavy rain in a few days and the weeds grew back, even if someone came here again, they wouldn't be able to find any clues.
After dealing with all this, Xia Ruofei looked at Song Wei who seemed to be sleeping soundly. He was worried.
The senior in the bronze coffin didn't say anything. He didn't know how to wake up Song Wei.
Xia Ruofei knew that the damage to the soul was very difficult to recover. Even if he went to the best hospital and checked with the best equipment, there wouldn't be any problems with the body. However, the person would remain unconscious.
The senior said that their branch was very good at nurturing the soul. However, he only practiced the Dao Formula. How would he know how to nurture the soul?
Just as Xia Ruofei was scratching his head, he heard a "jiji" sound.
Xia Ruofei turned his head and found that the white Realm Raccoon was following him.
He guessed that the little guy was sent out of the underground palace with the senior. However, Xia Ruofei was discovered and he was in a hurry to take Song Wei away. In addition, the Realm Raccoon was very small, so he didn't notice it at all.
Xia Ruofei didn't expect that the little guy was still following him.
Xia Qing also reminded Xia Ruofei that the white Realm Raccoon was born to be favored by space. Moreover, it had a unique ability to find Realm Stones.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be moved. He asked, "Little guy, you were sent out as well? If you don't have anywhere to go, why don't you follow me? "
The white Realm Raccoon stared at Xia Ruofei with its black eyes for a while. It liked the aura that Xia Ruofei inadvertently emitted after practicing the Dao Formula. More importantly, there seemed to be a very profound spatial fluctuation on Xia Ruofei's body. It couldn't help but want to get close to him.
Therefore, after pondering for a moment, the white Realm Raccoon nodded.
Xia Ruofei was surprised that the Realm Raccoon agreed so straightforwardly. Previously, in the underground palace, when it came to dividing up Realm Stones, both sides didn't budge an inch. This Realm Raccoon didn't seem to be so easy to talk to!
Therefore, Xia Ruofei probed again, "Then you'll be in charge of searching for Realm Stones in the future. We'll go and get them together. How about … we split the harvest fifty-fifty?"
The Realm Raccoon chirped twice, but still nodded straightforwardly.
Xia Ruofei felt that it was a little inconceivable. He knew how attractive Realm Stones were to this white Realm Raccoon. It actually agreed to the fifty-fifty suggestion so easily?
One had to know that without the Realm Raccoon's scouting ability, Xia Ruofei wanting to find Realm Stones was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, not every place that had Realm Stones would encounter such a large obstacle like the underground palace.
Based on this, the Realm Raccoon would suffer a great loss if they split fifty-fifty.
"You're not plotting something, are you?" Xia Ruofei looked at the Realm Raccoon and asked.
A hint of disdain flashed through the Realm Raccoon's eyes. It chirped twice, turned around and was about to leave.
Xia Ruofei hurriedly shouted, "Wait! Wait! I was just saying. Why are you so angry? "
The white Realm Raccoon stopped and turned to look at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei laughed dryly and said, "Then you'll follow me from now on! If we find Realm Stones, we'll work together to excavate them. We'll split fifty-fifty according to the agreement just now! "
Only then did the white Realm Raccoon nod with a look of disdain. It walked to Xia Ruofei's side and lazily laid on the ground.
After Xia Ruofei and the white Realm Raccoon reached a gentleman's agreement, they started to worry about Song Wei's situation.
