Sun Qi, who was swaying to the rhythm of the music to refresh himself, heard the Sea King's words. His face turned ashen and his body stopped shaking. He turned around and glared fiercely at the Sea King, assuming a posture as if he was about to pounce on him.
Liu Chai and the others could not help but laugh out loud.
After the interlude, everyone continued to walk along the passageway outside.
With the help of Sun Qi, Liu Chai and the others no longer felt sleepy. After walking along the passageway for about half an hour, the path in front of them suddenly widened.
When they completely walked out of the cave, a huge open space appeared in front of them. Liu Chai and the others were shocked when they saw the scene in front of them.
As far as the eye could see, there were countless terracotta soldiers in black armor standing not far away. They were so densely packed that they could not even see the end of them.
At the center of these terracotta soldiers, a huge black crystal coffin floated in the air. Several blue energy belts hung down from it, forming an energy ball that supported the bottom of the coffin, gently swaying the crystal coffin.
Everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.
Even the experienced and knowledgeable Sea King was speechless.
In fact, when he passed through the teleportation passage, he already felt that the owner of the tomb was not simple. However, when he saw the terracotta soldiers and the crystal coffin, he felt that he had underestimated the identity of the owner of the tomb.
"It would be great if I could be this awesome after I die!" Sun Qi said with a face full of envy.
Everyone was speechless.
"Sea Chives, can you tell whose tomb this is?" Gu Yu turned around and asked the Sea King.
The Sea King rolled his eyes when he heard that.
"How would I know? There was no such person when I was born. Maybe it's some big boss from ancient times!"
"You only know how to fight and kill. See, now you're at a disadvantage because you don't study history!" Sun Qi looked at the Sea King with disdain and said.
"Silly dog, do you really think that I don't dare to beat you up?"
Mo Xiaoxin was very envious of the Sea King who was talking back to Sun Qi. In comparison, he could only hide in the dark and talk back …
"Everyone, look, there seems to be some words here!" Xue Li's voice came from the front.
Everyone heard her and immediately turned around to see Xue Li standing in front of the stone pillar in front of the terracotta soldiers, reading the words on it.
Upon seeing this, everyone hurried forward and surrounded the five-meter-wide stone pillar to examine it.
[Shadow Killer: I will protect you when you are alive and protect you when you are dead. The Shadow Army will not enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation and will accompany you for all eternity!]
After the artifact reacted to this line of words, Xue Li murmured it out.
"You recognize these words?" The Sea King was astonished because he had never seen these words before.
"See, you've suffered once again because of your lack of culture. Didn't you say that you would learn history well?" Gou 'zi took the opportunity to attack.
He hated the Sea King, who had been calling him a stupid dog all this time. He decisively seized the opportunity to mentally attack him.
The Sea King, "…"
At that moment, he really wanted to smash Gou 'zi's head. He really didn't know his place.
After that, Xue Li began to walk around the pillar excitedly and read the words on it bit by bit.
Seeing this, everyone stood aside and listened to Xue Li's explanation.
As players, they naturally did not have the same sense of urgency as the Sea King.
In the eyes of the crowd, they were playing a game after all. It was good to understand the background of the game. They could also show off in the forum in the future.
Through Xue Li's narration, everyone gradually learned the identity of the tomb owner and his story.
The story recorded every important point in the tomb owner's growth as if the person who carved these words had witnessed everything with his own eyes.
Two hours passed quickly. When Xue Li finished reading the last word on the stone pillar, everyone was stunned.
The story of the tomb owner shocked them to the core.
Born in a merchant family, he built a dynasty that spanned across many seas with his own ability. This was a height that many powerhouses dreamed of but could never reach.
If that was the case, the players would not be so shocked.
More importantly, the tomb owner had the idea of going against the Underworld Chamber of Commerce since he was young and put it into action.
In the eyes of the players, this was too crazy. It was like a firefly trying to compete with the bright moon. It was foolish and ignorant.
However, the shadow grew to the point where it threatened the position of the Underworld Chamber of Commerce.
In the story engraved on the stone pillar, apart from the tomb owner, there was also an army that followed the tomb owner like a shadow.
The Shadow Army!
After reaching a certain level of strength, the first step the tomb owner took was to build a Shadow Army.
This army was made up of elites. The soldiers were personally selected by the tomb owner and trained since young. They were loyal to him. Even though many of these soldiers grew stronger than the tomb owner, they never crossed the line and never had the idea of rebelling.
The players might not have thought much of it, but the Sea King, who was standing at the side, was shocked.
Was it the loyalty of the soldiers? Perhaps, but to the Sea King, the tomb owner himself was more important!
He used to be the overlord of the Void Ocean and was now the monarch of the Mu Te Sea Nation. Hence, he understood the difficulties of being the overlord of the sea. The Sea King felt that he was good at controlling his subordinates. However, even he could not guarantee that his subordinates would not betray him when their strength surpassed his!
However, this emperor called the shadow had many subordinates in the army that were stronger than him. However, they were still loyal and never betrayed him. This was terrifying to the Sea King.
Thinking of this, the Sea King turned to look at the terracotta soldiers in black armor in front of him. Then, he looked at the first sentence on the stone pillar.
[Shadow Killer: Protect you when you are alive and protect you when you are dead. The Shadow Army will not enter the Six Realms of Reincarnation and will accompany you forever!]
Although he could not understand these words, the Sea King seemed to see countless figures bathed in blood fighting for their master …
Finally, the Sea King's gaze shifted to the blue crystal coffin, and his face was filled with envy.
He suddenly felt that Gou 'zi's words were right.
If he could have this achievement after death, it would be worth it. It would be the pinnacle of life!
At the end of the story, the Shadow Dynasty was destroyed.
The Shadow Army that was once extremely powerful and had several God-level powerhouses was also destroyed. Their bodies melted in the Annihilation Formation set up by the top powerhouses of the Acheron Chamber of Commerce until only their skeletons were left. The entire army was annihilated.
Only one person survived, and he was also a member of the Shadow Army. Even though his body melted and only his bones were left, he still pieced together the bodies of his former comrades and the tomb owner from the ruins. He spent an unimaginable amount of time and finally built the royal tomb that belonged to the Shadow Dynasty.
This kind of perseverance moved the players and the Sea King.
At this moment, what no one noticed was that Mo Xiaoxin's expression had changed subtly.
In this story, everyone was paying attention to the tomb owner and the Shadow Army, but they did not notice a detail. However, he did.
When the person who survived built these terracotta soldiers, he used an item, the Soul Praying Solution, which was also known as the Soul Praying Wine!
Mo Xiaoxin was well aware of the effect of this item. It could nourish the soul so that the souls of the dead would not enter the Six Realms.
Thinking of this, he turned to look at the densely packed terracotta soldiers in front of him and broke out in a cold sweat.
With so many terracotta soldiers, how much Soul Praying Wine would be used? He could not imagine how long the person who survived used to brew enough Soul Praying Wine.
However, he was sure that even if Qu Zui could live for another 100 years, he would not be able to brew this amount.
More importantly, if the Soul Praying Wine was used, the souls of the soldiers of the Shadow Army would be locked in these armors. Wouldn't that mean that they were still alive … Hiss!
Thinking of this, Mo Xiaoxin was shocked.
"What's wrong with you? You don't look too good." Sun Qi looked at Mo Xiaoxin and asked.
"I'm … I'm fine!" Mo Xiaoxin immediately replied.
Although he said he was fine, he was panicking inside.
If his guess was correct, the souls of the dead soldiers of the Shadow Army were still left in these armors. If they were to rise in revolt, they would probably die here!
"Hey, the material of these armors is not bad. Should we bring a few back?" At this moment, a voice interrupted Mo Xiaoxin's thoughts. He turned his head to look.
Then, he was horrified to find Xue Li patting the armor of a mercenary with a smile on her face.
At this moment, Mo Xiaoxin wanted to scream.
Looking at the mercenary, Mo Xiaoxin prayed in his heart. Please don't be awakened, please don't be awakened!
As the saying goes, what you fear will come. In the end, you can't escape.
The head of the mercenary that Xue Li touched suddenly lit up with soul fire. Then, the heads of the surrounding mercenaries also lit up. In a short period of time, like a spark spreading, it quickly spread throughout the royal tomb.
Seeing this scene, the rest of the people were also shocked and did not understand what was happening.
Meanwhile, the Sea King was so scared that his face turned green.
Just now, he felt countless soul waves. In other words, there were souls in these armors!
After listening to Xue Li's story about the tomb owner, he clearly knew how terrifying the strength of these soldiers guarding the tomb was.
After all, the Shadow Army was the main force against the Netherworld Chamber of Commerce. How could they be weak!
At this moment, the Sea King only had one thought in his mind.
I'm afraid I'm going to die here.
At this moment, he was extremely regretful.
Who gave me the guts to cooperate with the Player Clan and enter the tomb of the powerhouses? Didn't they know how arrogant they were? Now I'm dead!
Thinking of this, the Sea King turned his head to look at Xue Li, his eyes full of resentment.
What a cheap hand. Now we're all dead together.
Seeing the Sea King's resentful gaze, Xue Li rubbed her head awkwardly, knowing that she had made a mistake.
Mo Xiaoxin, who knew the truth about the Terracotta Army, also cast a pitying gaze at the Sea King.
"Sea Leek, it's okay if we die, but you have to hold on!"
