The Celestial's Painstaking Efforts to Create Sha

The three of them had a chilling feeling of being watched.

The third senior sister continued, "It is precisely because of this legend that very few Qiongqi come to Qiongqi's Tomb. It is a place that even its own kind is unwilling to come to, for fear of disturbing the High Antiquity Qiongqi that is currently sleeping."

"But you don't need to be afraid. I've been here several times. Although I feel like I'm being watched, that's all. Once we enter the tomb below, that feeling will disappear."

"Historically, the Qiongqi clan has produced several Tribulation Transcendence stage. They all came to the Qiongqi Tomb to check if their ancestor, the High Antiquity Qiongqi, was truly sleeping there, but they all found nothing. They all said that the High Antiquity Qiongqi's cultivation was far superior to theirs, and that they, these unworthy descendants, were not qualified to investigate the situation of their ancestor."

In the Demon Race, those in the Body Integration Realm are called Kings, and those in the Tribulation Transcendence Stage are called Emperors. The fact that the Qiongqi Clan has produced several Tribulation Transcendence Stage cultivators means that it has produced several Demon Emperors, which is an extremely terrifying number.

The Qiongqi tribe is considered the pinnacle of "tiger demons," and their fame even reached the Central Continent, giving rise to the idiom "like a tiger with wings," demonstrating the Qiongqi tribe's power.

"According to several Qiongqi Demon Kings, the High Antiquity Qiongqi was the most powerful being recognized by the Qiongqi clan."

Lu Yang: "..."

Third Senior Sister, please stop talking. I'm afraid that if you know the truth, you'll insult the immortals and make your Tribulation Transcendence more difficult.

You, Ying Tianxian, are truly capable of causing trouble.

"Ying Tianxian said that a person should not only pay attention to their reputation while alive, but also to their reputation after death. That's why he developed this great formation to leave a legend for future generations."

"Besides Qiongqi, he should have also established this formation at the ancestral tombs of the Kunpeng, Taotie, and Zhuque races. He didn't build more, because building too many would diminish the mystery."

The fact that the great formation has survived for 300,000 years without breaking down and is still frightening demonstrates the exceptionally high quality of the formation produced by Ying Tianxian. In other words, it shows how much he cares about this matter.

"Moreover, in order to create a legend and prevent future generations from knowing the truth, the matter of the tomb formation was covered up and became a secret."

Judging from the fact that the Qiongqi tribe dared not approach the tomb, the formation had indeed become a secret.

"... Ying Tianxian is quite helpful."

Lu Yang racked his brains for words to praise Ying Tianxian, hoping to reduce the dangers during his Tribulation Transcendence.

"It's not about helping others for fun. Think about it, whether it's the old Qiongqi or the old Kunpeng, they are the High Antiquity Demon Race you talk about, with boundless Law Power, right?"

"Even with boundless Law Power, could it be more powerful than an immortal? No way."

"The more mysterious Old Qiongqi and the others are, the more it highlights the power of our Five Immortals from High Antiquity, doesn't it?"

Fairy, please stop talking. If you continue, I'm afraid I might really develop disrespectful thoughts towards Ying Tianxian.

Similar to Meng Jingzhou's method of training willpower, Lu Yang was also training his willpower while listening to High Antiquity history.

As soon as the three entered Qiongqi's Tomb, the feeling of being watched disappeared, and their psychological pressure decreased dramatically.

"This is..."

The tomb of Qiongqi contains many murals, most of which have been damaged by time and are now dilapidated.

The pigments used to paint the murals were extremely valuable, worth a fortune per drop. Even so, the murals have succumbed to the ravages of time and have deteriorated to this state, demonstrating the antiquity of the Qiongqi tribe and the Qiongqi Tomb.

Lu Yang saw a small Qiongqi on the mural, its fur wet, clearly just born. Then the little Qiongqi ran forward, gradually growing bigger, reaching its peak, then gradually aging, its fur falling out, its body becoming hunched, and eventually dying.

The final destination of death is the Tomb of Qiongqi.

The murals also depict many major historical events of the Qiongqi tribe, which they consider an honor and want to remember at all times.

Above the mural is a line of High Antiquity text: Death is not the end; I have witnessed your glorious lives.

"These are the characters left behind by the High Antiquity Qiongqi, which are regarded as the spiritual pillar of the Qiongqi tribe. Because of this, the Qiongqi tribe is not afraid of death and takes it in stride."

Third Senior Sister truly lives up to her reputation as a professional archaeologist, effortlessly discussing various aspects of Demon Race culture.

"Could this sentence have also been written by Ying Tianxian?"

"No, that's what Old Qiongqi came up with on his own. Ying Tianxian can't come up with a line for everyone, so it would be easy to create homogeneity and make it easy for others to spot the flaws."

Ying Tianxian is meticulous and thoughtful in her work.

"Senior sister, where is the base you mentioned?"

"Almost there, almost there!"

The tomb was pitch black and as complex as a maze. Without the guidance of an elder of the Qiongqi tribe, it would be easy to get lost inside.

I wonder where Third Senior Sister found out the structure of Qiongqi Tomb.

The three walked for about two miles before reaching the end of the passageway. The third senior sister knocked on a brick wall, and a hidden door opened, signaling the other two to follow.

Lu Yang noticed many arrow fletchings pointing outwards on the walls of the secret room and immediately understood.

The Qiongqi Tomb contains many traps, and this is one of them. If you step on the wrong spot, a barrage of arrows will be fired, killing any intruder.

After the arrows were used up, they needed to be replenished, which led to the creation of the mechanism room, which served as the three's shelter.

"Senior sister, you can even find a place like this?"

The two were quite surprised. It was one thing to hide in a tomb, but to hide in the tomb's secret chamber was another. Who would have thought someone was hiding there? No wonder Third Senior Sister had been so confident that hiding in the Qiongqi Clan was safe.

The three rested for a few hours to adjust their condition. Although they had invisibility talismans and were not afraid of being discovered, maintaining invisibility was still very tiring. The third senior sister was fine, but Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had been using invisibility talismans for almost a day, traveling from the side tribe to Qiongqi Tomb. They needed to rest.

The two of them fell asleep immediately in the office.

While the two were sleeping, the third senior sister took out paper, ink, brush, and inkstone and wrote down what had happened over the past few days.

She wrote down her experiences in the Demon Realm in her book, "Tales of the Demon Realm," which has already been completed in eight volumes, and she is currently writing the ninth.

After a brief encounter, she was certain that this junior brother knew more about High Antiquity history than she did.

With a junior brother who is well-versed in High Antiquity history, she believes that the content of this ninth volume is even richer than the previous eight volumes.

"Hmm..."

Hearing Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou's movements, she knew they were about to wake up, so she put away her writing materials and sat quietly.

Lu Yang and his companion slept for a full three hours. When they woke up, they felt clear-headed and refreshed.

"You're awake? That's perfect. I'll take you to the main tomb; it's said that the High Antiquity Qiongqi is buried there."

"It is said?"

The third senior sister nodded, slung the guqin over her back, tied the rope at the end of the guqin to her chest, and covered her eyes with a black cloth, looking like a hermit who had emerged from a bamboo forest.

She explained, "At least the High Antiquity Qiongqi's coffin is there. As for whether Qiongqi is actually lying inside, I don't know, but that's none of our business. We're here for archaeological research, not to rob tombs."

As a professional scholar, the third senior sister adheres to the principle of seeing is believing.

The second update will be at 11 PM (I'll try).
