Chapter 1091:
"Chi Mei!"
When he saw Ye Zichen and Chi Mei playing around, Grizzly Face's expression darkened even further. He frowned and roared in anger.
A sharp aura burst forth from his body, as sharp as an unsheathed blade. Ye Zichen had his back to him, but when he sensed that aura, he couldn't help but arch his brows.
However, the aura only appeared for an instant before disappearing. Even so, his expression was still as dark as ever, as if someone owed him money.
"So you're an immortal king."
Although Grizzly Face had only revealed his strength for a breath of time, Ye Zichen could sense his immortal king level power.
Chi Mei clearly didn't take his rebuke seriously. She stuck her tongue out at him and ignored him.
"Chi Mei, stop playing around. This isn't the time for you to mess around!"
No matter how you looked at it, it sounded like a half-sentence. Perhaps there was a hidden meaning behind it, but out of consideration for Ye Zichen's presence, Grizzly Face didn't say it.
His brows were perpetually furrowed. Chi Mei froze, but when she saw Grizzly Face's expression, she seemed to realize that he was truly angry. She had no choice but to purse her lips and toss the paintings at the sun. At the same time, she explained in detail, "We really are inside a painting right now.
"We are indeed inside a painting. The painting that I threw out just now was just an illusion of the scroll. It's just like this enormous mountain formed from the earth of the five elements. It's necessary. Buried beneath this mountain is the Five Elements Great Emperor's tomb. That illusory painting is the key to opening it. "
Before she even finished speaking, Ye Zichen watched as she tossed the three paintings to the top of the mountain and fused them into a complete painting of mountains and rivers.
Under the scorching sun at the top of the mountain, the Mountain River Diagram began to burn from the center. When the diagram disappeared, three keys appeared, drilling directly to the top of the huge mountain.
Rumble!
The beautiful landscape was suddenly covered by dark clouds and a torrential downpour. Strangely, the rain fell only within the mountain range. As for the surrounding lake, not a single drop touched it.
"Wah ….."
Ye Zichen had no time to sigh. As the magical rain fell, the mountain range changed.
The entire mountain split right down the middle, and a crack appeared in it. Although the crack was right in front of Ye Zichen, no matter how hard he looked, all he saw was darkness.
"Let's go."
The black-faced monster, Wu Yi, revealed an excited expression. The moment the mountain gate opened, he impatiently flew toward the crack.
"Let's go too."
Chi Mei also smiled faintly and flew towards the fissure. Ye Zichen hesitated. To him, his life was the most important.
He didn't even know what was inside that crack. If he went in and encountered some killing array …
What to do?
However, what made him feel conflicted was that even if he stayed here, he didn't know how to get out of this painting.
Don't underestimate him. He was an Immortal King who was about to completely transform his divine power.
With his immortal senses, be it calculating or searching for details, they were quite powerful. But when he entered this landscape painting, he couldn't see anything special about it.
However, in comparison, Wu Yi and Chi Mei seemed to know everything like the back of their hands.
Although they'd said they'd been here for more than ten years, Ye Zichen was certain that if they'd been able to discover the secret, it would've been more than enough time for them to discover it. But if they hadn't, then ….
There was something wrong with Chi Mei and Wu Yi!
What's more, this was a completely unfamiliar environment. The fissure had only just opened, yet they didn't feel the slightest sense of danger when faced with the impenetrable fissure.
It was as if this was their home.
"Sweetie, let's go! Once the fissure closes, you'll never be able to leave again. If you want to leave the painting, you'll have to go through the tomb! "
Chi Mei stopped just as they were about to reach the fissure. She couldn't lose this sweetie! She still needed him to refine her Sea Condensing Pills.
Ye Zichen remained in place, his thoughts racing. At his level, countless thoughts could be processed with a single thought.
Since he was already here, he might as well take things as they come.
From the moment he'd opened the painting to Chi Mei looking for him, to the moment they'd entered this place, the siblings were completely unperturbed. Both Wu Yi and Chi Mei were filled with suspicions.
But Ye Zichen wasn't a pushover. He wasn't a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
He'd just have to take things one step at a time!
"I'm here." Ye Zichen chuckled, then hurried over to Chi Mei's side. "There seems to be some sort of seal around this fissure. There's no way to investigate what's going on inside. Won't your brother run into any problems if he just goes in? "
"I don't think so. The Five Elements Great Emperor left this tomb for his descendants, so that they could avenge him. If there's danger inside, what's the point of leaving this tomb? "
Chi Mei's explanation was simple, but no one could find any fault with it. Ye Zichen carefully took in her expression as she spoke, then nodded, "You're right.
"I was overthinking things."
"It's fine to be careful. Let's hurry up and go in. Otherwise, that grumpy freak's going to scowl at us again."
They entered the fissure. As expected, there was a whole new world inside.
Inside the crack was a mausoleum, and they were at the entrance of the mausoleum after coming in through the crack.
The two stone lions at the entrance were lifelike. Ye Zichen couldn't help but glance at them a few times, but when their eyes met, he saw that the lion had come to life. It grew to a size of over a hundred feet and crawled in front of the mausoleum's entrance. Its crimson eyes glared at him, then it stomped the ground a few times and pounced at him.
"Didn't you say there wouldn't be any danger …."
Just as the lion was about to pounce on him, Ye Zichen hurriedly retreated. The lion's claws just so happened to land on his chest, leaving several bloody gashes.
Faint golden blood flowed down his chest. When the lion smelled blood, it became even more bloodthirsty, and its attacks grew even more frenzied.
"Chi Mei, didn't you say there wouldn't be any danger here?"
Ye Zichen roared angrily at her, only to discover that she stood rooted to the spot. No matter how much he shouted, she didn't respond at all.
At that moment, the lion in its true form opened its bloody maw and bit down on Chi Mei. Ye Zichen wanted to save her, but the lion was glaring at him.
Crunch.
The lion closed its jaws and bit off Chi Mei's head. Blood spurted out from her neck like a fountain, but Chi Mei still maintained her standing posture, letting the lion gnaw at her until there was nothing left.
At the same time, they heard a bloodcurdling scream in the distance. Ye Zichen saw a lion following behind the grumpy freak. After the lion bit him until he couldn't fight back, the lion left him for the young trainers behind him, then walked towards Ye Zichen.
