"The tomb I'm looking for is a tomb from the Warring States Period. There's a pair of stone doors in front of the tomb with the words' Immortal Mansion of Longevity 'carved on them. How about it, have you seen it before?" Ye Xuan asked.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the scrawny old man was taken aback. A strange light flashed in the depths of his eyes before he shook his head and said, "No, I'm sure you know that there are countless tombs here. So far, we've discovered over a thousand of them. Who knows how many more are buried underground. Moreover, the tombs here are very strange. The older the tomb, the more likely it is to be haunted by demons. Even we don't dare to casually bury them."
Hearing the scrawny old man's words, Ye Xuan's eyes narrowed. He suddenly looked at the scrawny old man and said indifferently, "You're lying!"
"I …"
Just as the scrawny old man was about to speak, he saw a golden light flash in Ye Xuan's eyes. In an instant, his entire body became sluggish.
"Uncle … Uncle …" The three men beside the scrawny old man had been paying attention to Ye Xuan and the scrawny old man. When they saw the scrawny old man's expression suddenly become sluggish, their expressions changed drastically and they subconsciously reached for the pistols at their waists.
"Hmm?" Ye Xuan snorted coldly. With a thought, the pistols in the hands of the three men suddenly turned into dust. The three of them jumped in fright as they stared at Ye Xuan with pale faces and stumbled backwards.
Ye Xuan couldn't even be bothered to speak to these people. He only glanced at them indifferently before turning to the scrawny old man and saying, "Tell me, how much do you know about the tomb I'm talking about?"
"When I was young, I seem to have heard someone talk about that tomb. It's said that this tomb is extremely demonic and difficult to approach. Many people have died there." The scrawny old man said with a sluggish expression.
Hearing the scrawny old man's words, Ye Xuan couldn't help but frown. He had thought that the scrawny old man had found the tomb before. He didn't think that the scrawny old man had only heard about it.
"Can you find the tomb? Can I tell you where the person in that tomb is now? "Ye Xuan asked after a pause.
"That person is already dead …" The scrawny old man replied. He paused for a moment before continuing, "However, I know that he left behind a diary that recorded his experiences. There should be information about this tomb."
Hearing this, a golden light flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes, and he removed the illusion he had cast on the skinny old man. Then, with a wave of his right hand, several rays of golden light shot into the bodies of the four people.
"You, what did you do to us?" Before the four of them could react, the strand of golden light had already fused into their bodies. Although they did not feel any discomfort, they still felt extremely uneasy when they saw what Ye Xuan had done.
"Don't worry, they won't take your lives for now. I will only give you five days. After five days, if you can help me find the location of the tomb, then I will help you remove the restriction on your bodies. Otherwise, after five days, the restriction will activate, and you will bleed from your orifices. Your body will fester and you will die. "Ye Xuan said calmly.
"You, you are so vicious. We have no enmity with you. Why do you have to do this to us? I, I will kill you …" After hearing Ye Xuan's words, one of the men's face turned pale. Then, his eyes turned red and filled with madness. He actually took out a bundle of homemade explosives and was about to ignite it to take Ye Xuan down with him.
Pu! ~ ~ ~
Facing this crazy man, Ye Xuan only flicked his finger lightly. A sword ray shot out and touched the man. Immediately, the man's body paused. Then, like quicksand, his entire body turned into powder and collapsed, leaving only a handful of ashes on the ground.
"Ah! ~ ~ ~" The remaining two men and the skinny old man cried out in fear. Their bodies trembled and they fell to the ground. One of the men was so scared that he lost control of his bladder.
"If anyone else wants to do the same, I can send them on their way in advance." Ye Xuan glanced at the three people in front of him and said calmly.
After seeing mountains of corpses and seas of blood, killing a person did not affect Ye Xuan's state of mind. Moreover, these people's hands were not clean.
Evil people will be tortured by evil people!
"No, I wouldn't dare. Spare me, spare me …" Hearing Ye Xuan's words and looking at the man who had already turned into ashes, the two men immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy while trembling with fear.
Pa!
Suddenly, Ye Xuan flipped his right hand and a jade talisman appeared in his hand. He threw it in front of the skinny old man, "This is a Sound Transmission Jade Talisman. When you find the tomb, just crush this jade talisman and I will know. Remember, you only have five days. Whether you live or die is up to you."
After saying that, Ye Xuan did not pay any more attention to them. With a turn of his body, he disappeared on the spot.
After Ye Xuan disappeared, the entire forest returned to a temporary silence. Only the three men's expressions and heavy breathing could be heard.
"Uncle, uncle, what, what do we do next?" After a long time, the simple and honest man who wanted to wash his hands with a golden plate asked with a sullen face.
The skinny old man looked at the empty forest in front of him and shook his head. He sighed, "What else can we do? Our lives are in someone's hands. If we don't want to die, we have to find the tomb as soon as possible."
"Uncle, what do you think is in the tomb? Why does that person want to find the tomb?" The remaining man asked with a pale face.
"Longevity Immortal Mansion … Let's go. We only have five days. We can't waste any more time here." The skinny old man muttered to himself before shaking his head. He picked up a backpack from the ground and turned to walk out of the forest.
… …
After giving the instructions, Ye Xuan did not pay any more attention to them. He believed that under the threat of death, they would definitely try their best to find the tomb.
The skinny old man could tell with one look that he was confident that he would be able to find the tomb. That was why he was so calm.
If the skinny old man and the others really couldn't find the tomb, that was fine. At worst, he would just have to spend a little more effort and use his body to measure the ground. Would he be afraid of not being able to find the tomb?
Therefore, Ye Xuan was not too anxious about this matter. At most, it would only take him a few days. If the skinny old man and the others could find the tomb, it would save him a lot of effort.
At that moment, Ye Xuan did not go out for a walk. Instead, he found a place in the Eight Ling Mountain and set up a protective array. He then took out the treasures that he had obtained earlier and began to refine them.
