"Holy shit, the Eighteen Arhats!!"
Meng Fan was startled.
He tossed a few more glow sticks ahead to scout the way.
The faces he had glimpsed a moment ago.
Had made Meng Fan think he was facing statues of the Eighteen Arhats.
But a closer look revealed otherwise.
Although their numbers matched and care had gone into their construction.
Every statue's expression lacked spirit, and their poses were stiff.
Their weapons copied the shapes without capturing their essence.
They were nothing more than terracotta warriors dressed up as the Eighteen Arhats.
And unlike the tomb passage, the hall's floor.

The shattered stones suddenly moved.
Realizing something was wrong, Meng Fan immediately pulled his foot back.
The rubble on the soil went still again.
"I knew there was a catch."
"Go take a look."
Meng Fan ordered a rat to scout ahead.

To test whether that was true.
Meng Fan slowly placed his foot on the soil.
