Di Hong's Ancient Tomb was located at the bottom of Di Hong City. For generations, other than the direct descendants of the Xuan and Yuan Family, no one was allowed to step into the ancient tomb, let alone the depths of Di Hong's Ancient Tomb.
It was said that only the first Di Hong City Lord and his wife had entered the bottom of Di Hong's Ancient Tomb. Unfortunately, the two of them did not succeed in opening the Path of Gods.
Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming were the first pair of outsiders to enter the ancient tomb since Di Hong City was built.
The entrance of the ancient tomb was a heavy stone door with a seal. On the opening mechanism of the stone door, there were four indentations of totem emperor jades.
Yun Sheng embedded the Green Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird and Black Tortoise Emperor Jades into the door.
After the four emperor jades were completed, the four totem divine beasts revealed their appearances.
"Everyone, I'm very sorry. It took me so long to bring you back to the Path of the Gods. Moreover, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to open the Path of the Gods." Yun Sheng looked at the four Divine Beasts in the air with an apologetic expression.
Only those who passed Emperor Huo Yan's test could obtain the qualification to open the Path of Gods.
"Master, you don't have to be too concerned. Everything is destined in the unseen world. Us four siblings being able to once again step onto the Path of Gods is already beyond our expectations. "The four totem divine beasts also looked at Yun Sheng with respect.
After following Yun Sheng for the past few days, the four totem divine beasts admired Yun Sheng's bravery and wisdom.
"Since that's the case, let's enter the Emperor's Tomb. I heard that there are many mechanisms in the Emperor's Tomb. I'm afraid it'll take some time to reach the Path of Gods." Yun Sheng looked at the opened stone door.
In the Emperor's Tomb, there were many twists and turns like a huge maze.
According to Yuan Bupo, many of the ancestors of the Xuan and Yuan Family who entered the Emperor's Tomb in Di Hong City had lost their way in the maze. Some of them were trapped for months or even a year.
"Master, you don't have to worry about the maze and mechanisms. To tell you the truth, us four siblings are also the totem guardian beasts of the Emperor's Tomb. "The four totem beasts said.
The mechanisms and labyrinths of the Grand Emperor's tomb were meant to trap those with impure thoughts and evil intentions towards the Path of the Gods.
However, Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming were different. The two of them did not enter the Grand Emperor's Ancient Tomb to open the Path of Gods for their own selfish reasons.
They had come for the sake of all the humans and beasts in the Boundless Continent and Eight Desolates Continent.
"Thank you, Lord Divine Beasts." Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this.
Not having to go through mazes and decipher traps could save a lot of time.
The longer they stayed in Di Hong's Ancient Tomb, the greater the danger of the continent.
"However, even though the maze and traps are gone, the deepest part of Di Hong's ancient tomb, where the ninth chapter of Di Hong is stored, is not something that we can control. That place is also the last checkpoint to open the Path of the Gods. If you succeed, you will have the chance to receive the guidance of Emperor Huo Yan and step onto the Path of the Gods. However, if you fail, you will be trapped in Di Hong's ancient tomb forever. "The four totem beasts told Yun Sheng everything they knew. "It's not too late for you to retreat now."
"Night Fox, it seems like we still have to try." Yun Sheng looked at Ye Beiming affectionately.
"That's right. Since we have come this far, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of us, we will walk through it hand in hand. If we don't become gods, we will become ghosts. Together with you, I am not afraid of anything. "Ye Beiming smiled confidently. There was only unwavering determination in his eyes.
The two of them walked through the stone door together and walked towards the depths of Di Hong's ancient tomb.
Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming did not know that at the moment they entered Di Hong's ancient tomb hand in hand, there were two pairs of eyes watching them from somewhere in the Realm of the Gods.
Of these two people, one was Emperor Huo Yan, who had an astonishing heavenly might, and the other was a dignified and beautiful female Venerable.
The two of them were watching everything that was happening in Di Hong's ancient tomb through a sky well.
"Emperor Huo Yan, are these two the people that you have your eyes on who can step onto the Path of the Gods once every three thousand years?" The Goddess' beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation as she smiled faintly.
"That's right. Make a guess. This time, will it be me or you who will win?" Emperor Huo Yan looked at the couple in the sky well with interest.
"My guess is … Just like three thousand years ago, they will not be able to pass the test." The Goddess shook her head.
Mortals had always thought that the Path of the Gods was difficult to walk. However, they did not know that the Path of the Gods was not difficult at all. The most difficult part was opening the Path of the Gods. This was because to open the Path of the Gods, one must first pass the test of the Gods.
In particular, this Path of the Gods had been paved by Emperor Huo Yan when he became a God.
Emperor Huo Yan was known to be a harsh Emperor in the Realm of the Gods. However, as long as one could pass his test and open the Path of the Gods, one would be able to achieve great things in the Realm of the Gods in the future.
"This time, I'm afraid you are going to lose. The two of them are different from the pair of lovers back then. "Emperor Huo Yan said confidently.
"Emperor Huo Yan, you can't be so sure. Let's just wait and see. After all, the answer will be revealed soon." The Goddess pursed her lips and smiled.
After tens of millions of years, the days in the Realm of the Gods were very boring. She hoped that the new couple chosen by Emperor Huo Yan would not be like the pair of lovestruck women and resentful men from three thousand years ago. Emperor Huo Yan had misjudged them again.
Just as the Four Great Totem Divine Beasts had said, after removing the mechanisms and the maze, it was no different from an ordinary ancient tomb.
In the ancient tomb, there were everlasting lamps that would never be extinguished. The walls were filled with murals that had existed for tens of thousands of years.
"Night Fox, look at this mural." Yun Sheng stopped in front of a mural.
On the mural, there was a strange looking man with various herbs beside him.
"This man is Emperor Huo Yan, who is also my ancestor, Emperor Huo Yan of the Divine Farmer Clan. The family bracelet on my hand was also passed down by my ancestor. If not for him and his bracelet, I would not have met you. "Yun Sheng said gently.
Although the two worlds were different, both Emperor Huo Yan and Emperor Huo Yan were extraordinary people who deserved respect.
"If that's the case, let's kowtow to him a few times." In all his life, Ye Beiming had never kowtowed to the heavens or his parents. However, today, he was sincerely grateful to Emperor Huo Yan.
This was because Emperor Huo Yan had given him the first ray of sunshine in his life.
The two of them held hands and knelt in front of the mural. They kowtowed three times to their ancestor, Emperor Huo Yan.
After that, Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming continued to walk forward.
When they reached the end of the tomb, the mural disappeared. The surroundings were empty and there were no extra items. It seemed that the name of the tomb did not live up to its name.
There was only a table in front of them. On the table, there was a yellow guqin.
