An's eyes also lit up, and he exerted force with his arms and swam towards the direction of the light.

After a while, the two finally rushed out of the underground river and lay on the shore gasping for breath.

Looking closely, a huge cave suddenly appeared in front of me!
The most eye-catching thing is the murals painted on the cave walls.

On the screen, two teams in armor and holding weapons were fighting fiercely.

One flag has a sun totem, the other has a crescent moon, it's clearly a battle between the gods and the moon!
"Is this... that tragic clan war?" Lin Qiye murmured.

An nodded, his face solemn.

He reached out and touched the mottled mural, as if he wanted to see through it and see that dusty period of time clearly.

After a long while, he sighed quietly: "Thousands of years of grudges, eternal love and hatred. I didn't expect that there would be such a portrayal."

Lin Qiye couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

The two powerful ancient clans fought each other to the death, but in the end, they both perished.

The balance of history has finally tilted.

Just as the two were sighing with emotion, a strange sound suddenly came from the depths of the cave!
The sound of "buzzing" was endless, and it was actually the sound of countless flapping wings, flying towards this side at a high speed!
"Oh no! It's a corpse!"

Lin Qiye's pupils shrank, and he shouted sternly, "Quickly retreat!"

Before he finished speaking, a mass of dark shadows swarmed in, blocking out the sky and the sun!
When they looked closely, they saw countless thumb-sized beetles rushing towards them frantically!
Those beetles were pitch black all over, emitting a foul odor, and surrounded by wisps of black air, which made people shudder.

"These corpse insects must have been attracted by the demon blood and came out of the tomb! I didn't expect there would be such evil creatures in this tomb!"

Lin Qiye gritted his teeth and slashed with his sword.

Suddenly, golden light flashed, and countless corpse insects were cut into two pieces and turned into charred powder.

However, more insects came in like a tide, as if there was no end.

"Be careful! It's dangerous if they get close to you!"

An once again used the bronze magic weapon, and a surge of spiritual power exploded in the cave!
In an instant, evil winds arose, and countless corpse worms fled in all directions under the impact of the magic power.

However, there were still a few fish that slipped through the net and pounced on the two men without caring about their lives!
"what!"

Lin Qiye felt a pain on his cheek and quickly waved his hand.

But he didn't expect that the back of his hand was also bitten, and blood immediately flowed out!
A chill instantly spread throughout my limbs and bones, as if even the blood was about to solidify.

"Oh no! The corpse poison has entered the body!"

His eyes widened in horror, and he tried his best to mobilize the spiritual power in his body to resist the evil cold poison.

An was horrified when he saw this, and quickly put his hand on Lin Qiye's shoulder, passing a ray of pure spiritual power into him.

After a long while, Lin Qiye exhaled a breath with a pale face, and finally saved his life.

The corpse poison has mostly dissipated, but it still remains in the body, following like a shadow.

"Thank you for your help, senior. Otherwise, I would not have been able to escape this disaster."

Lin Qiye bowed and thanked him, his voice weak.

An Lianlian waved his hands and sighed:
"We have a heavy responsibility, how can we fall so easily? There are too many corpses. If we continue to fight, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."

He looked around and soon found a fork in the road.

"Look, there is a path ahead! It must lead to the depths of the cave. Let's follow it, maybe we can find a ray of hope!"

After saying that, he took a deep breath and walked quickly towards the fork in the road.

Lin Qiye staggered to catch up, but he was feeling uneasy. In the live broadcast room, countless viewers broke into cold sweats.

[Oh my god! The plot twist is too fast, isn't it? He was studying the mural one second, and was bitten by a bug the next?]

[That's right! This corpse poison is too scary. One bite can kill a person! Fortunately, Lin Qiye is lucky, otherwise he would have gone to see the King of Hell right now.]

[I was so scared. If it were me, I wouldn’t even have any bones left.]

[That’s right! How can ordinary people resist such evil things? We still have to rely on masters like our Master Lin and Grandpa An to take charge!]

[But now it seems that the two seniors are seriously injured. How far can they go?]

[Don’t say such discouraging words! They are all top-notch practitioners! Can’t they get rid of this corpse poison in a matter of minutes?]

[That’s right! Besides, isn’t there a fork in the road ahead? Maybe once we turn the corner, we’ll find a clear path!]

[That’s right! Don’t I know the routine of this program group? There must be a lot of foreshadowing at the critical moment, and a gorgeous reversal at the end, a great assist!]

[Alright, alright, stop arguing. Let's just keep our eyes on the screen. At this critical juncture, there's no telling what the next unexpected turn of events might be.]

Everyone was talking about it, and there were mixed feelings of surprise and delight at the plot twist.

Even though it's a dead end now, who knows what magical treasure will appear in the next moment to save the situation?
So everyone stared at the screen again, afraid of missing any thrilling moment.

At this time, in the fork in the road, Lin Qiye and An were walking forward with difficulty.

As they went deeper, the surrounding environment also underwent subtle changes.

The wall is no longer the bumpy natural rock, but becomes increasingly flat and smooth.

Lin Qiye looked carefully and saw that the surface of the rock wall was covered with dense lines, winding and twisting like an ancient totem.

Those lines glowed with a faint light, as if indicating some mysterious information.

"Is this... the layout of some kind of formation?" Lin Qiye murmured to himself, reaching out his hand to gently stroke the patterns.

It feels cool to the touch, and you can almost feel the mysterious power contained in it.

An was also slightly startled, and then suddenly realized: "I understand! These lines should be the clues to the treasure!"

"Ancestor Yueying is proficient in the art of formations and can use the layout of formations to hide secrets. Now that these totems have appeared in the world, I'm afraid they are just waiting for someone with a destiny to decipher them."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Qiye's eyes suddenly lit up.

He quickly moved closer to take a closer look, trying to find a breakthrough from these intricate patterns.

After a long while, he excitedly shouted: "Look, senior, the arrangement of the lines here seems to have a mystery. From this starting point, all the way inward, there is a vague shape that appears to be pointed by an arrow!"

He followed the lines, his eyes swept across the stone wall and landed on a depression at the deepest part.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a palm-sized circular groove with exquisite patterns carved on the edge.

"Looking at this shape, it should be a keyhole of some kind of mechanism. If we can find an object that matches it, maybe we can open the door to the treasure!"

Lin Qiye was very excited and turned to look at An.

However, the latter's expression was somewhat solemn.

He looked around and murmured, "Something is wrong. The layout here always makes me feel uneasy. Could it be..."

Before he finished speaking, a loud bang suddenly exploded!
The entire fork shook violently, and countless rocks and gravel fell from the top of the cave, splashing up clouds of dust.

"Not good! There's an ambush!" Lin Qiye's pupils shrank and he shouted sternly. (End of this chapter)
