The main tomb contains the High Antiquity Qiongqi, considered the strongest Qiongqi. The place is lavishly decorated, with various rare treasures and High Antiquity Law Treasure on display, as if the High Antiquity Qiongqi could come back to life at any moment and wield these Law Treasure to fight and kill enemies.

If any one of these treasures were to be auctioned off, the auction would have to be prepared for six months in advance, with extensive publicity, so that it would fetch an astronomical price as the grand finale item.

Even with Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou's discerning eyes, they couldn't identify the origin of these things and could only ask their third senior sister to explain.

Fortunately, Lu Yang had two ears; his left ear listened to his third senior sister's explanations, and his right ear listened to the Immortal Fairy's explanations.

Three identical fluorescent herbs grew on the wall, displaying remarkable resilience.

"Kunlun Grass, legend has it that this thing can improve Root Bone, cleanse the marrow and tendons, and even has a one-third chance of transforming into the Kunlun Immortal Body, which has not appeared for ten thousand years!"

"Kunlun Grass, if you eat too much of it, you'll develop a Kunlun Immortal Body, but it's useless. The Kunlun Immortal Body is the most useless of all immortal bodies. The first immortal body I ever created was the Kunlun Immortal Body."

A feather radiating a pure white light was contained in a seashell as tall as a person; it looked quite extraordinary.

"Qiongqi Feather, the central feather on the back of the High Antiquity Qiongqi. Legend has it that holding this feather can persuade any race in the 'Demon Race Clan Alliance' to lend a hand. The feather also contains a true saying of the High Antiquity Qiongqi. Whoever hears this saying must agree to the conditions proposed by the Qiongqi clan."

"Qiongqi Feather, a hair that Old Qiongqi plucked from his back. He grimaced in pain for a long time. With this thing, you can ask other Demon Race for help. Only the Qiongqi clan can use it. When using it, drip blood on it and then Law Power activate it. At this time, the feather will make Old Qiongqi's voice - 'Give me some face'."

A small black mountain, about the size of a palm, stood on the ground, so heavy that the surrounding space was deformed. If it weren't for the reinforcement of the array, it would have collapsed into a black hole long ago.

"The spirit of Mount Buzhou: Legend has it that in High Antiquity times, there were two powerful beings who controlled water and fire. They fought an unprecedented battle for the position of immortal. Water and fire clashed, volcanoes erupted, oceans turned into lava, and stars exploded into countless meteors. In the end, the one who controlled fire won. In his anger, the one who controlled water crashed into Mount Buzhou, and with the collapse of Mount Buzhou, the mountain spirit was born."

"Mount Buzhou, do you still remember that Golden Core cultivator who could conjure saltwater? He was lucky enough to cultivate all the way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. He clashed with the Phoenix Clan's prodigy, and the two of them fought. Several balls were smashed. The Phoenix Clan's prodigy had been given a few pointers by this immortal, and he's incredibly strong. The saltwater Golden Core cultivator got desperate after losing, so he rammed into Mount Buzhou, and this thing came out."

"Is this the core of Mount Buzhou?"

"He's so stubborn, he used his head to crush Mount Buzhou into such a small piece."

Lu Yang: "..."

These treasures are all sealed; the slightest movement will be detected by the Qiongqi clan, and the entire Qiongqi Tomb will be sealed off, making it impossible for tomb raiders to escape.

Just as the third senior sister said, she came to do archaeological research, not to rob tombs, and she had no greed for these things.

In the very center of the main tomb stands a heavy, black coffin. Rather than a coffin, it is more like a large, isolated black ship that can ferry passengers across the River Styx and grant them another life.

"This is 100,000-year-old Netherwood, the best material for coffins, capable of blocking all Divine Sense detection," the Third Senior Sister said.

"I remember this thing. It was bought from the Immortal of Time by the old Qiongqi. The Immortal of Time used the <Tree Planting Technique> and the Dao Fruit of Time to turn the sapling into a 100,000-year-old Netherwood."

"The older the heavenly materials and earthly treasures are, the higher their value. People often ask the Time Immortal to add years to these heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Sometimes, adding too much age can even create a miniature medicine king."

The Immortal of Time used the orthodox <Tree Planting Technique>, which Lu Yang couldn't compare to.

As the immortal fairy spoke, she extended her divine sense to examine the black coffin. As a fellow being from the High Antiquity era, she wanted to know whether the old Qiongqi was dead or alive.

There is nothing in the world that can block the senses of immortals.

"It's a pity, he's really gone." The Immortal Fairy sighed. Her old acquaintance was lying in a coffin not far away, and she couldn't describe the feeling.

Without condensing a complete Dao Fruit, one's lifespan is ultimately limited. The old Qiongqi had no external injuries and died of old age.

However, she wasn't too sad. She didn't have much of a relationship with the old Qiongqi, who used to eat people. It wasn't until the time of the Five Immortals in High Antiquity times that he stopped eating people.

So when the old Qiongqi asked her to extend his lifespan, she refused.

"Look here, there are words." Lu Yang pointed to a line of small characters at the bottom of the wall and said softly.

"Meng Potian was here." Who is Meng Potian?

Meng Jingzhou looked somewhat embarrassed. "My father."

When he was young, Chief Meng believed in reading ten thousand books and traveling ten thousand miles. He traveled all over the country and left his footprints in the Demon Realm as well.

Given my father's personality, it's perfectly normal for him to leave a message here.

Third Senior Sister nodded. "The Qiongqi Clan also discovered this line of text."

Meng Jingzhou: "..."

How come the Demon Realm is more dangerous than I imagined?

No, I've already run away from home, so I can't be considered a member of the Meng family.

Lu Yang patted Meng Jingzhou on the shoulder, showing his loyalty. "Don't be afraid. If we're discovered by the Qiongqi Clan, I'll throw you out to buy time."

"No, the Qiongqi tribe won't do anything to Junior Brother Meng."

Lu Yang was taken aback, never expecting the Qiongqi tribe to be so noble and virtuous, able to repay evil with good.

"It's not about repaying evil with kindness. Several hundred years ago, the Qiongqi tribe was also eager to cause trouble for the Meng family, but the Qiongqi tribe had its own troubles and had no time to deal with the Meng family."

What trouble is the Qiongqi tribe causing?

Lu Yang wondered to himself, could it be that a chaotic war had occurred in the Demon Realm several hundred years ago, with the Qiongqi Clan participating and caught in a pincer movement, unable to defend themselves? Or was there internal turmoil within the Qiongqi Clan, such as two Qiongqi vying for the position of clan leader?

The third senior sister explained, "The Qiongqi clan is born poor. Several hundred years ago, they lost a lot of money in business, and there was a lot of resentment within the clan. If it weren't for the Meng family lending them money, the Qiongqi clan probably wouldn't have made it through that crisis."

"I heard that you just paid off your debts fifty years ago. As the eldest young master of the Meng family, if the Qiongqi clan knew about you, they would probably treat you with respect. If you're willing to be buried in the Qiongqi Tomb, they would probably agree."

Meng Jingzhou breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed that the Meng family's status wasn't all about attracting hatred.

Lu Yang glanced at Meng Jingzhou, thinking, "Your Meng family background is quite versatile, isn't it?"

The third senior sister bowed three times to the black coffin, her posture dignified and her attitude respectful, showing the proper etiquette.

"Senior Qiongqi, I apologize for the offense."

It's impolite to simply take someone's burial goods.

She walked to the corner of the main tomb, carefully Law Power to wrap a pottery jar, and lifted it up.

This pottery jar is the lowest quality burial item; it doesn't even qualify Law Treasure artifact. Its purpose is purely decorative.

The patterns on the pottery jar puzzled her greatly.

"Junior brother, take a look at this pottery jar."
