"Gudong, gudong."

A low and turbid sound of water suddenly came from the end of the corridor.

Then, a bone-chilling chill mixed with the smell of earth rushed towards me.

Everyone's hair stood up instantly!
"No, no way..." Sister Na said in a trembling voice, her face as pale as paper.

Suddenly, a huge pool of water appeared in front of me. It was deep, dark and bottomless.

There was a strange black mist floating on the water, like a ghost swimming slowly.

The faint phosphorescence appeared and disappeared in the mist, as if countless ghosts were wandering underwater.

"What on earth is going on? Why is there such a black pool?" Cheng Long shouted in horror.

Yang Mi and Liu Tianxian screamed continuously, hugged Lin Qiye tightly, and almost fainted.

Even Wang Xingxing, who was usually calm, couldn't help but gasp and his face turned pale.

Lin Qiye stared at the strange black pool with his eyes as sharp as torches, his lips pressed into a straight line.

He raised his hand and pressed the hilt of the knife, and a fierce murderous aura suddenly spread around him.

Even Lin Qiye saw those mysterious patterns for the first time.

At this moment, with the help of the Qilin bloodline, he had an instinctive sense of the abnormality in the pool of water.

An indescribable sense of crisis arises spontaneously!
"Oh no, there's something wrong with this water!"

Lin Qiye didn't have time to think and pushed the people around him away.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped out from the pool and rushed towards Lin Qiye!
"careful!"

Wang Xingxing screamed and threw Lin Qiye to the ground.

The black shadow passed over the two men's heads, hit the rock wall behind them, and exploded.

The boiling liquid splashed everywhere, making a hissing sound, and its strong corrosiveness was terrifying.

What is this? The fluid in the body is so corrosive!
Lin Qiye quickly rolled over and avoided the invasion of venom with Wang Xingxing.

"What on earth is going on?!" Wu Jing was shocked.

"Quickly step back and stay away from the pool!" Lin Qiye shouted sternly.

Everyone ran backwards in panic, trying desperately to distance themselves from the pool of death.

At this moment, the black fog on the surface of the pond became thicker and thicker, and pairs of scarlet eyes flashed in the shadows, making people shudder!
[Fuck! This plot development is too thrilling! I just entered the tomb not long ago, and I encountered so many dangers!]

[Oh my god! What kind of monsters are hiding in that pond? The acid is too strong, it can dissolve a person just by touching it!]

[How can this be called an ancient tomb? It is simply the Asura Hell, okay?! Inspector Lin and the others should get out quickly before they risk their lives!]

[Brother Qiye is protected by the blood of the Qilin. The venom alone cannot hurt him at all!]

[That’s right! Besides, there’s also the heroic rescue of Xingxing. This couple is made in heaven!]

[What a match made in heaven! Xingxing is a serious celebrity. She has nothing to do with a coarse person like Inspector Lin, right?]

[Get lost! How can Inspector Lin be called a rough guy? He is a real talent, with great martial arts and extraordinary courage, okay? He is more than qualified to be with Xingxing!] [Fuck you! Just because he could draw talismans just now, I think he must be a Taoist master! Xingxing is lucky to be able to date such a man!]

[Haha, you are the only one who knows the most! Can anyone be a Taoist master? Besides, can't you see that he knows nothing about those strange creatures? I think he is at best a half-baked kung fu master!]

[Bullshit! Inspector Lin is being low-key! Look at his agile skills and steady demeanor, he is clearly a battle-hardened warrior! If I were Sister Mi, I would shamelessly follow him!]

[Get lost, who cares about you? Sister Mi and Tianxian are the perfect match, right? They didn't even scream a few times from beginning to end. Aren't they a hundred times braver than you?]

In the live broadcast room, everyone was talking about this sudden change. They were terrified by what happened to Lin Qiye and others, and were even more curious about his relationship with several female stars.

But at this time, the expedition team no longer cared about all these.

The most important thing right now is to get out of danger as quickly as possible and find a safe escape route.

Lin Qiye acted decisively. While protecting the people around him and retreating, he took out the Maoshan talisman from his arms and chanted the spell.

"Hurry up and obey the command, the protective divine light will appear!"

As he chanted, a ball of dazzling golden light suddenly lit up in front of him, quickly spreading and transforming into a tall shield of light that tightly enveloped everyone.

The strange black fog hit the light curtain, making a "hissing" sound and disappeared in an instant.

The highly toxic droplets that flew out of the pool were also completely blocked outside, dripping onto the ground and emitting wisps of green smoke.

"What a powerful protective spell!" Cheng Long exclaimed sincerely.

"It's worthy of being Maoshan Taoism, it's really magical!" Wu Jing couldn't help but applaud.

Yang Mi and Liu Tianxian were so frightened that they had already weakened their bodies. They kept snuggling into Lin Qiye's arms, afraid to leave him for even a step.

"Brother Qiye, you are truly our savior! If it weren't for you, we would all have turned into a pile of bones by now!"

"That's right! Brother Qiye has unparalleled martial arts and great magical powers. He is simply a god descended from heaven!"

Listening to the two women's intoxicated praises, Wang Xingxing and Na Jie couldn't help but show a complicated look in their eyes.

Although they were convinced of Lin Qiye's abilities, they were still reluctant to express it too bluntly due to their status.

Lin Qiye knew what they were thinking, but he just smiled faintly and did not comment.

His gaze fell on the black pool in front of him again, his eyes slightly fixed, as if he was thinking about something.

"Strange, according to common sense, there shouldn't be such a large body of water in an ancient tomb. Moreover," he pointed at the strange black fog on the surface of the pond, "the water here is obviously strange. I'm afraid it's very different from an ordinary underground river."

"Are you saying that this pool of water is a mechanism set up by the tomb owner?" Cheng Long asked.

"It's very likely." Lin Qiye nodded.

"Think about it, haven't we discovered several ingenious mechanisms along the way? The mechanisms on the wall and the spears on the ground all show the tomb owner's meticulous mind. If he had the ability to arrange the entire tomb passage so perfectly, it wouldn't be difficult to set a trap here."

After hearing this, everyone gasped and shuddered in their hearts.

"Then what should we do now? We can't just wait like this, right? What if there are other dangers in the tomb? Wouldn't that be fatal?" Sister Na was a little anxious.

Wang Xingxing also frowned slightly, looked at Lin Qiye, and said solemnly: "Qiye, look at this pool of water, is it the only way to the tomb? If so, should we..."

"The only way is through the water?" Wu Jing took over the conversation and shuddered. (End of this chapter)
