Meanwhile, the reactions of everyone inside the house were much the same as Su Fang's.

They were all struck dumb with shock on the spot.

"Are you out of your mind? You dare target even the Tomb of Gods and Devils? Do you have a death wish?" the shirtless brawny man questioned first.

Hearing this, Prince Shaomiao immediately retorted, "I believe everyone knows that wealth and danger go hand in hand."

"Besides, do you all expect to live long by staying cooped up in this Gods and Devils Cemetery and suffering the inhuman torture of the Yin Qi erosion every single day?"

"Don't you want to take a gamble, seize the treasures within the Tomb of Gods and Devils, break out of this cage, and slaughter everyone who locked us in here?"

"We're going to die sooner or later anyway, so what is there to be afraid of?"

After Prince Shaomiao's instigation,

the people inside the house instantly lost their reservations.

Come to think of it, that was true.

Trapped in this Gods and Devils Cemetery and subjected to daily Yin Qi erosion, they weren't going to live much longer anyway.

What was there to fear about death?

Having thought it through, Brother Meng took the lead and said, "Prince Shaomiao is right. Whether the rest of you are willing to go or not, I, Meng, am definitely going. My time is running out, and I must gamble for a chance at survival."

Right after Brother Meng finished speaking, Luo Changqing followed up, "I am going as well. This is my only chance to leave the Gods and Devils Cemetery, and I certainly won't miss it."

Following the consecutive agreements of Luo and Meng, the few others in the room nodded in consent as well.

Just like that, Prince Shaomiao bound everyone to his war chariot with a few simple words.

Seeing this, Prince Shaomiao naturally nodded in satisfaction and then continued, "Everyone, start listening to my arrangements."

"Although the Yin Qi Tide a month from now will expose the Nine Nether Cavern, that will also be the time when the Yin Qi throughout the entire Gods and Devils Cemetery is at its densest."

"Therefore, you must all prepare means to counter the Yin Qi erosion. Solar Stones are naturally indispensable, but that is far from enough; they can only barely be used for emergencies and cannot resist the Yin Qi erosion for long."

"So, we must prepare treasures capable of resisting or absorbing Yin Qi."

"Originally, I did possess such a treasure, but unfortunately, a few days ago, my cousin Jiang Chen—who temporarily managed the treasure for me—mysteriously vanished. He most likely met with a mishap, so that treasure was lost along with him."

"I wonder if any of you have a way to track it down or know of clues to alternative treasures."

Prince Shaomiao stated calmly.

He seemed intent on extracting some information about Jiang Chen from the group.

However, everyone wore blank expressions.

Suddenly, Luo Changqing spoke up, "I might not have a treasure of the same type, but I may be able to provide some clues regarding Young Master Jiang Chen."

"Oh? Is that true?" Prince Shaomiao asked with curiosity.

Hearing this, Luo Changqing wasn't entirely certain as he said, "I can't guarantee the clues will be useful, but I do have a rough suspect."

"That person is called Su Fang. He also just arrived a short while ago, supposedly thrown in after his cultivation was crippled."

"As you all know, I get along reasonably well with most of the newcomers in the Gods and Devils Cemetery, so I frequently keep an eye on their movements."

"Not long ago, on the very night Jiang Chen disappeared, that Su Fang also vanished at the same time. Furthermore, just like Jiang Chen, he hasn't returned for several days, which is highly abnormal."

"You must understand that outside the residential area of the Gods and Devils Cemetery, the Yin Qi erosion becomes much more severe. Unless one possesses the means to resist Yin Qi, most people would never choose to stay overnight outside."

"Moreover, when I bumped into Su Fang a few days ago, he didn't seem to have suffered much Yin Qi erosion. This isn't a condition that someone with crippled cultivation should display, which I found extremely strange."

Luo Changqing said slowly.

Meanwhile, watching through the [Sky Patrol Monitoring Formation], Su Fang experienced a jolt in his heart.

He hadn't expected Luo Changqing's insight to be so sharp.

Even though he had been extremely careful,

he was still seen through. At the same time, he couldn't help lamenting that you can know a person's face but not their heart.

Fortunately, Su Fang wasn't in his dwelling right now. Hiding inside a certain tomb, he didn't need to fear these people's retaliation.

On the other side, the people who had listened to Luo Changqing's description of Su Fang's situation immediately broke into a flurry of discussion...

"For someone with crippled cultivation to last no more than a week in this Gods and Devils Cemetery—that fellow named Su Fang is indeed very suspicious," Prince Shaomiao remarked.

Brother Meng chimed in abruptly, "I've run into that Su Fang a few times too, and he is indeed somewhat suspicious. Perhaps he concealed his cultivation. If we see him again, we should check him out."

"Check him out for what? He's just someone with crippled cultivation. When the time comes, we'll just grab him and interrogate him," the shirtless brawny man said, completely dismissing Su Fang.

The others offered no objections, clearly tacitly approving of such behavior.

"Where is this Su Fang right now?" Prince Shaomiao suddenly asked.

Luo Changqing replied directly, "I haven't seen Su Fang in the residential area for several days now. We can just wait until he shows up and look for him then."

Hearing this, Prince Shaomiao nodded in agreement.

He then added, "We can grab Su Fang and question him, but we shouldn't get our hopes up too high. In case he doesn't have the [Devouring Yin Tortoise Carapace], we'll still need to find other substitute treasures."

At these words, the others naturally nodded in assent.

Observing from in front of the [Sky Patrol Monitoring Formation] and hearing this group's plot, Su Fang instantly harbored a deep grudge against them in his heart.

You want to catch me? Then don't blame me for being ruthless, Su Fang thought.

Seeing Prince Shaomiao and his group leave one after another shortly after, he deactivated the [Sky Patrol Monitoring Formation] and began pondering his next move.

Su Fang was actually quite interested in the legendary tomb of the demon god.

However, his cultivation was still too low.

If he wanted to covertly track Prince Shaomiao's group and search for the Tomb of Gods and Devils together, having such low strength simply wouldn't do.

Although he possessed the [Heavenly Evolution Array Disk], it wasn't a panacea.

It couldn't guarantee his safety one hundred percent, especially when dealing with sudden emergencies.

Still, he had a month's time.

I must rapidly boost my cultivation, Su Fang thought.

With that, he cast aside all distractions and resumed his training.

Time passed day by day.

Supported by a vast quantity of premium skeletal remains, Su Fang's progress in practicing the Nine Turn Golden Body Art advanced by leaps and bounds.

On this particular day, every bone in Su Fang's body had been dyed entirely gold. He was merely a hair's breadth away from breaking through to the Second-Turn Golden Body Realm.

To achieve this, he had even deliberately prepared two sets of superior bones to supply the demands of his cultivation.

Su Fang began to circulate the Nine Turn Golden Body Art, whereupon golden light slowly radiated from his entire body.
