In the darkness.
The torches on either side of the walls lit up one after another.
Shen Ye followed the long staircase down.
About a dozen minutes later.
He reached the third level of the Great Tomb.
Compared to the first two levels, this one was quite empty.
Countless intricate lines and patterns were etched into the flat metal floor.
Ranks of Human Effigies stood in orderly battle formations, weapons in hand.
When Shen Ye appeared, all the Human Effigies turned to look at him.
But the waist token at Shen Ye's belt vibrated gently.
The Human Effigies immediately withdrew their gazes, and the hands that had been reaching for their weapons dropped once more.
They fell silent again.
Shen Ye waited a short while. Only after confirming that the Human Effigies truly had no intention of fighting did he step forward.
He simply walked straight through their battle formations.
This level was quite vast.
He walked several kilometers before finally reaching the end of the Great Tomb's third level.
A bronze wall stood at the end of the path.
The wall had a series of recesses that looked like they were meant to hold things.
Shen Ye checked the size.
The recesses seemed just large enough to hold his waist token.
Should I try it?
He unfastened his waist token and placed it in one of the recesses.
In an instant.
Countless lines seemed to surge from the walls, ceiling, and floor, pouring into the token.
Amid a series of rattling sounds.
The waist token fell from the wall.
Shen Ye hurriedly caught it, only to discover that it had become heavy in his hand.
Several lines of small text were engraved on the front of the token:
``` "Tomb General."
"Oversees all affairs on the first three levels
