[That's right. After all, this is an adventure. You have to go through a few levels before you can see the real treasure, right?]

[That’s right! But speaking of that, what’s the story behind that stone gate? Is it actually related to the ancient altar?]

[You don't understand this, right? In ancient times, the mausoleums of emperors and generals all had this kind of stone gate. It was a symbol of status and a symbol of heavy military guards. Without a noble status, how could one be qualified to build such a stone gate?]

[I see! Could the tomb owner be a royal relative?]

[Very likely! Think about it, anyone who can be related to Xuanwu Altar must be at least at the prime minister level, right?]

[Indeed! It seems that this time, we have a great opportunity to discover!]

[That's right! But the most urgent thing right now is to have Master Qi arrange the follow-up plan. Who knows, some monster will jump out of the tomb in the next second!]

Netizens were excited again, discussing Lin Qiye’s amazing discovery underwater, and were full of curiosity and anticipation about the upcoming opening of the tomb-robbing door.

After briefly sorting out his thoughts, Lin Qiye began to assign tasks to everyone.

"Wu Jing, you take your men to guard the pond here and monitor any movements at any time. If you find anything, notify me immediately."

Wu Jing nodded in response.

"Brother Long, go ask Director Yan to prepare a few sets of diving equipment. It would be best if you can bring some lighting equipment. We will need it when we go down later."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Long began to practice with Director Yan who was staying outside.

Director Yan had already seen this kind of emergency in the video.

Someone has been arranged to deliver several new diving suits and oxygen cylinders.

"As for you." Lin Qiye looked at Yang Mi and Liu Tianxian, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Go down, there doesn't seem to be any danger down there."

The two women were of course delighted and nodded in agreement quickly.

Soon, the seven men were fully armed and jumped into the deep pool again.

With the help of oxygen masks, several people were able to breathe freely underwater.

The light from the flashlight and headlamp also made the vision much clearer.

Not long after, they swam to the stone gate.

However, faced with this underwater stone gate, everyone was in trouble again.

The water is different from the land, and the stone door is almost impossible to open.

Lin Qiye gestured, signaling everyone to separate around the stone gate and look for a mechanism or an entrance.

Several people searched around but found nothing.

Seeing the oxygen in the equipment being consumed bit by bit, everyone is now at a loss.

We can't just drain all the water.

At this moment, Wang Xingxing seemed to have discovered something.

She waved the flashlight in her hand, motioning everyone to come over.

Now she is quite far away from the stone gate.

Everyone swam over there and found that there was a crack near the mountain where Wang Xingxing was.

The width of the crack is just enough for one person to enter, and bubbles come out from it from time to time.

Everyone looked at each other and communicated with each other using gestures.

Wang Xingxing wondered if this place would lead to the belly of the mountain, where there might be another world.

Because this was her first time getting involved, she didn't know if her idea was right.

Lin Qiye looked at the crack. Because it was underwater, the dowsing rod could not be used, and the gold-point-pointing technique was of little use here.

He didn't know what it would be like after entering. If it was just an ordinary crack, it would be a question whether the oxygen could sustain until everyone came out after entering.

While everyone was still hesitating, Sister Na had already swam in.

Several people hurriedly signaled her to come out first, maybe she could find the entrance somewhere else. But Sister Na, who was swimming in front, ignored everyone's signals.

Helplessly, Lin Qiye had to signal everyone to follow.

After swimming for a while, the gap became smaller and smaller.

The place where one person could pass easily before has now become crowded.

Sister Na was swimming in front, her heart beating fast.

The range that the flashlight in my hand can illuminate is getting smaller and smaller.

She felt that she was being impulsive, after all, it was his first time going to a tomb.

It seems that I must never try to be so stubborn again.

While she was thinking, she found that there was no road ahead and the crack had closed.

Now she was really anxious. Looking back, she saw several blurry spots of light floating up and down behind her.

This made her feel a little more at ease.

Lin Qiye also swam over and discovered this problem.

I looked up and saw the darkness above, feeling a little puzzled.

When everyone swam here, he signaled everyone to wait here while he went up to take a look.

Soon, Lin Qiye swam back again and shook his head, indicating that there was no way up.

Now the only way is to return.

Yang Mi had never stayed underwater for such a long time before, and her physical strength was a little exhausted.

Even with the help of equipment, it was difficult to stay afloat in the water and I began to sink.

Lin Qiye was the first to notice it and swam over after Yang Mi's descending body.

He didn't catch Yang Mi who was falling until they were almost at the bottom.

When he arrived at the bottom of the pool, Lin Qiye discovered a dark cave entrance at the foot of the mountain.

Yang Mi's flashlight happened to fall inside, and through the light, Lin Qiye seemed to have discovered something.

He signaled to everyone who was swimming over to follow him towards the cave entrance.

Although the entrance of the cave is not spacious, it can barely accommodate one person.

Lin Qiye's mind moved, and he signaled everyone to follow him, and he was the first to go into the cave.

With the help of the flashlight dropped by Yang Mi, everyone discovered that this was actually a long and narrow corridor. The stone walls on both sides were covered with ancient carvings, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

"Could this be the secret passage leading to the tomb?" Wang Xingxing gestured with his hands, unable to hide his excitement.

Sister Na also nodded, with a sly look in her eyes: "Looking at the structure, it's probably correct. I just didn't expect the entrance to be under the water. What a bold and ingenious design!"

Lin Qiye did not respond, but swam forward quickly.

Although the dowsing rod cannot be used underwater, based on his experience, he vaguely felt that this passage must have a different world.

Soon, as they went deeper and deeper, everyone began to feel something strange.

The water temperature, which was originally freezing cold, actually rose slightly.

The surrounding water pressure was no longer as heavy as before.

"Huh? What's going on? Could it be..." Liu Tianxian murmured in disbelief.

At this moment, the end of the corridor suddenly became clear!
A huge hole appeared before everyone's eyes.

With the help of the flashlight, you can see countless stalactites hanging from the ceiling of the cave, which are magnificent and awe-inspiring.

The water at the bottom of the cave barely reached everyone's waist, and there was no longer that feeling of an endless abyss. (End of this chapter)
