"Strange. This material looks like it's made of some kind of animal tendons." He murmured, "Could it be..."

Suddenly, a terrible guess came to my mind!
He quickly stood up and shouted to the people behind him: "Everyone, stay where you are!"

Before he finished speaking, a sharp "crack" sound suddenly rang out!
Then, the ground beneath my feet collapsed instantly, turning into countless gravels and gravel, falling into the bottomless crack in the ground!
"Oh no! It's quicksand!"

Lin Qiye was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He grabbed Wu Jing beside him and leaped onto a protruding rock on the cave wall.

The others also reacted quickly and jumped toward the wall of the cave, narrowly avoiding the landslide.

But one soldier didn't have time to escape.

His feet slipped, and he was instantly swallowed up by the quicksand. He let out a shrill scream, and disappeared!
"Xiao Wang!!" His companions shouted his name, their faces filled with fear and despair.

However, the only answer they got was the gurgling sound of quicksand.

The unfortunate soldier disappeared from everyone's sight.

"It's all my carelessness!" Lin Qiye said with some self-blame, "I should have thought of it earlier. How could the mechanism here be so simple!"

"Qiye, I don't blame you." Wu Jing comforted him, "No one could have imagined that even the ground was full of traps. That thin line is probably just a cover."

Others echoed.

At the critical moment of life and death, if Lin Qiye hadn't warned them, who knows how many people would have died, and no one could have expected that the trap was so hidden and cunning.

"That animal tendon is probably some kind of switch." Lin Qiye clung to the wall tightly. "Once it breaks, other traps may be activated in conjunction with the quicksand."

"Damn it! The person who designed this mechanism is so vicious!"

When everyone heard Lin Qiye’s explanation, they hated and feared the “wisdom” of the ancients.

Fearing that someone might back down, Lin Qiye said, "Now is not the time to regret."

Looking around the cave walls, Lin Qiye continued, "Now that we are here, we must continue walking. I want to see how insidious these traps are! Everyone just follow my method and slowly walk through this quicksand."

Seeing that people started to die as soon as they entered the cave, the audience in the live broadcast room could no longer sit still.

"Oh my God! How could someone die?"

"That mechanism is too scary, isn't it? It collapses if you touch it. It's like a tiger's butt that you can't touch!"

"I thought that when I triggered the mechanism, it would drop iron nails or darts, but I didn't expect it to be a quicksand that buried me. It's really hard to guard against!"

"Poor little Wang, he is gone just like that. His family and friends must find it hard to accept this fact."

"Stop talking. If the losses continue like this, won't the entire expedition team be wiped out?"

"Speaking of which, isn't Lin Qiye's intuition too scary? He can detect such a hidden mechanism. Did he install it?"

"That's right. If it was me, I would have been the first one to be buried. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and notified everyone to pay attention, otherwise there would be more than one person whose body would be gone by now."

However, the people on the screen showed no sign of backing down.

After a brief moment of sadness, everyone gritted their teeth and followed Lin Qiye to go deeper.

For a moment, countless comments of encouragement from the audience in the live broadcast room flooded onto the screen like a tide.

"Come on!"

"You must hold on! We will always support you!"

"Lin Qiye, you have to lead us to uncover the secrets of the Ancient City of Gods and Demons!"

"I'm optimistic about you!"

Lin Qiye led everyone to carefully cross the quicksand area. Even with the previous lesson, everyone's nerves were still highly tense.

Every step is like walking on thin ice.

No one knows where a mechanism will pop up from in the next second and deal them a fatal blow.

Fortunately, under Lin Qiye's guidance, the group finally got through the difficulties safely.

After everyone had gained their footing, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking back, the quicksand area behind me had turned into a huge sinkhole.

If someone accidentally falls into it, I'm afraid even his body won't be found.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but shudder.

"It seems that we have stepped into a large underground tomb." Lin Qiye looked around and said in a deep voice.

"The mechanisms here are obviously designed to prevent theft."

Cheng Long nodded in agreement: "Yes, this is definitely not an ordinary ancient tomb. Maybe this is the tomb of the nobles in the legendary ancient country of gods and demons."

"Tomb?" Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise and doubt.

"According to ancient records, the founding king of Shensha Country was buried in a mysterious underground palace after his death."

"The underground palace is extremely large, filled with layers of mechanisms, and filled with countless treasures of the Shensha Kingdom."

"Everyone calls it the Tomb of the Godly King!"

"And the nobles of the ancient Shensha country, in order to follow their king, built countless mausoleums around their king according to the size of their official rank."

Cheng Long told the story in a leisurely manner, causing everyone to be amazed.

"If that's true, we'll be rich. We'll encounter so many tombs along the way!" Yang Mi's eyes lit up. Even if she was rich, it would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted by the endless treasures.

"Don't be too happy too soon." Lin Qiye's face was solemn. "Since it is a royal tomb, it is bound to be extremely dangerous. It is easy to get in, but difficult to get out."

"And each of them will imitate their monarch and set up certain traps. The closer you are to the palace, the more dangerous it is!"

After hearing this, everyone's excitement subsided a little and they all tensed up.

"Let's go on! If our guess is correct, then we will definitely reach the palace. The skeletons just painted on the mural are probably the officials worshipping their monarch."

Lin Qiye took the lead and sank into the darkness again.

"Oh my god! Are they going to challenge the Tomb of the Gods and Demons? How brave are they?"

"It's the Tomb of the Godly King! The wealth inside is enough for us to spend in several lifetimes, right?"

"How many lifetimes? Just dream freely, brother. Why are you so petty when you dream?"

"But didn't you hear what Lin Qiye said? It's easy to get in but hard to get out. Who knows how many terrible traps there are in there!"

"That's right. The quicksand trap just now was terrifying enough. If you get lost in it, you will most likely die in it."

"But having said that, these people are really brave. They went there knowing that there were tigers there. I have to admire their courage."

"Of course! After all, with the great god Lin Qiye here, who wouldn't be brave enough to explore?"

"That's right, with Lin Qiye here, the Tomb of the Godly Demon King is nothing! Don't you believe he can't take care of it?"

"If it were me, I would just pick up some on the periphery, then I could have fun every night!" (End of this chapter)
