Chapter 372 - 372 The Tomb of the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor!
However, the moment he saw the skeleton, Feng Xia’s heart tightened for no reason.
Even though divine beings with high cultivation usually had a longer lifespan and could live for an even longer time, it was not without limits.
After more than 3,000 years, many experts of the Lingyun era had already turned into bones and dust.
Only a small number of them had survived until today.
Patriarch Chenhai’s cultivation base might have been strong back then, but he had still been suppressed for too long. Back in the Ancient Forsaken Land, the old man was still alive and kicking, laughing and cursing. It looked like he could live for probably another thousand or ten thousand years…
However, who knew… could that be the last glimmer of light in the embers?
“State Preceptor?”
The village chief called out in a low voice.
“Shut up and keep quiet,” Feng Xia roared in frustration.
The village chief was shocked. Feng Xia walked forward step by step, staring at the skeleton without moving his eyes. His speed became slower and slower, and his footsteps became heavier.
At a certain moment, he finally stopped in front of the thatched cottage.
Looking down, this skeleton…
“Oh, it’s not Master. Tsk, tsk, tsk… Who’s lying here like a corpse?”
Feng Xia immediately nodded and put on the same expression as an old man on the subway looking at his phone.
In an instant, his mood became incomparably happy. He could even hum a messy tune!
It did not matter who died here as long as it was not one of us.jpg
After letting out a long sigh of relief, Feng Xia finally started observing this skeleton. In terms of physique alone, Patriarch Chenhai’s figure was quite slender. When he was young, he must have been a handsome man.
This skeleton lying in front of the thatched cottage was much thinner and smaller.
“This should be the remains of a woman…”
The village chief also walked up and muttered carefully, “I wonder who this woman is and why she died here?”
This time, Feng Xia did not scold him.
This was because Feng Xia was indeed quite curious about the true identity of this skeleton.
No matter who the other party was, for her to die in this place, her identity was definitely not something simple.
“Furthermore, the State Preceptor of Lingyun Kingdom back then suppressed such a skeleton here. It can’t be that he’s a psychopath…” Feng Xia secretly mocked the State Preceptor that he had never met before.
At this moment, his gaze suddenly landed on a small mound beside the skeleton.
From the shape, it looked like a grave!
“A grave… Whose grave is this?”
Looking at the small mound, Feng Xia suddenly had a strange thought. Could it be that when the owner of this skeleton was still alive, she knew that her days were numbered and wanted to dig a grave to bury herself? In the end, she died the moment the grave was dug?
Looking at how the scene was “furnished”, it seemed very likely!
“State Preceptor, there’s a tombstone here! However, the words are a little blurry…”
The village chief’s yell interrupted Feng Xia’s thoughts. The little legless old man had already swiftly circled to the other side of the grave mound. Then, he lowered his head and read softly.
“Su…”
“Su?”
“Supreme…”
A somewhat familiar and yet unfamiliar term suddenly entered Feng Xia’s ears.
He suddenly raised his head and shock appeared on his face again. “Wait… Can this grave be…”
Before he could finish, he heard the village chief read the words on the tombstone with some difficulty.
“Supreme… Demon… Demon Dragon Emperor’s tomb? Who is this?”
Feng Xia’s hand stopped in mid-air.
Damn it, he knew that he could not celebrate too early!
He was still guessing earlier what kind of place this miniature version of the Ancient Forsaken Land was…
At this moment, the answer was like a heavy bomb that hit him hard on the head.
This was the third level of the Demon Imperial Tombs!
“I don’t think anyone would be so bored as to forge the tomb of the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor. In that case, this tomb should be…”
Feng Xia turned his head stiffly and his gaze landed on the small mound.
In all fairness, if it was any other time and someone pointed at this mound and told him that the one buried inside was the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor, the legendary supreme expert who had defeated all the experts in the world…
Feng Xia would have given the other party the set meal consisting of the Peerless 13 Swords and I Will Slash the 3,000 Realms.
—Are you kidding me!
“Are you sure… you didn’t see wrongly?” At this moment, Feng Xia could only speak with a trembling voice.
“I… don’t think so.”
The village chief hesitated for a moment before carefully looking at it again. Then, he nodded and said, “It’s indeed the language of Lingyun Kingdom, but there’s something strange. These words seem to be extremely ancient. Perhaps… perhaps it’s more ancient than Lingyun Kingdom…”
As he spoke, he could not manage to continue.
After all, this idea was a little too ridiculous.
...
How could the language of the Lingyun era be older than that of Lingyun Kingdom?
“It’s really the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor’s tomb…”
At the same time, Feng Xia had already circled to the other side. He stared at the damaged tombstone as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was unable to speak properly for a long time.
The reason why he could not speak was very simple—
This mausoleum was really too tattered!
The Demon Imperial Tombs of the First Ruler was already so vast a space. Even if the essence of the Demon Imperial Tombs was actually the inheritance site established by Yan Luosheng, the place was still a little too big.
In comparison, the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor, whom Long Da said was invincible in the entire world, had such a small grave. No matter how one looked at it, it was too shabby.
“If this is the Supreme Demon Dragon Emperor’s tomb, then this should be the third level of the Demon Imperial Tombs… Strange, is this the method to enter the third level?”
However, in the outside world, no one had any memories of the third level.
Even some experts who had been confirmed to have entered the third level remained silent after doing it, as if nothing had happened.
“Has anyone else been here before me?”
...
Feng Xia asked the village chief.
The village chief immediately shook his head and smiled bitterly. “If someone else has been here, how can we not know? Moreover, we don’t even know about this place ourselves…”
“Then that’s a little strange…”
Feng Xia rubbed his chin as his thoughts raced.
If those who had entered the third level had taken the path of the ancestral temple, it was impossible for the village chief not to know about this.
“In other words, there should be other passageways that lead to this place.”
Soon, Feng Xia figured out the impediment. “Perhaps there’s some power in this place that can erase the memories of outsiders or restrict them from talking about this matter. That’s why until now, no one has ever known the secret of this place… Wait! It’s not completely unknown!”
Feng Xia’s heart skipped a beat.
The Mo royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom!
Mo Lianque definitely knew about it!
