"It looked like a conspiracy."
Wei Tu's gaze flickered. Having gleaned this intelligence, he did not linger, merely flicking his sleeve before returning to his rented cave abode.
After that, he did not remain in the rented cave abode for long either.
Once he had confirmed that the Strange Bat King had shut himself away inside his cave abode to refine the Demon Venerable's Remains and the Demon-Summoning Blood Altar, he immediately set out for the Corpse Immortal Ancient Tomb beneath the Corpse Immortal Ancient City... to conduct a preliminary exploration of this ancient secret realm.
Naturally—wary of this secret realm's dangers, Wei Tu did not dare venture too deeply into its inner region. He merely circled through the outer areas, searching for the Danyang Supreme Emperor's Burial Mound that could resonate with the Sacred Emperor Token in his hand.
Unfortunately, even with the Sacred Emperor Token's aid, he was like the upper echelons of the human race: unable to find the slightest trace connected to the Danyang Supreme Emperor's Burial Mound within the Corpse Immortal Ancient Tomb.
It was as though Farmer Woodcutter's intelligence had been false from beginning to end.
"If there is no decoy tomb of the Danyang Supreme Emperor in the outer reaches of the Corpse Immortal Ancient Tomb, then only its inner region could hold such a possibility... But the inner region of this Corpse Immortal Ancient Tomb..."
Within the Corpse Immortal Ancient Tomb, Wei Tu gazed into the distance at an ancient cavern shaped like a heavenly pit, bottomless and suffused with dim blue mist. A rare trace of apprehension flashed through his eyes.
The Corpse Immortal Ancient Tomb was a tomb built upon tombs, constructed around the legendary Corpse Immortal Cave. The deeper one went, the older and more mysterious the tombs became.
