Ji Zining nodded slightly and then cupped her hands in a slight bow to Bing Li.
"I'll leave Qingshuang in your care, senior. Farewell!"
After speaking, Ji Zining led Xiao Jing and the others toward the door that Bing Li had pointed out.
Watching Ji Zining disappear into the portal, Bing Li's gaze became somewhat profound.
"The reappearance of the Exquisite Immortal Physique —what does this signify?"
Beside her, Qingshuang respectfully asked.
"Senior, what should I do?"
Bing Li withdrew her gaze and gave Qingshuang a faint smile.
"Lie down on the coffin."
Qingshuang was taken aback.
Lying down on top of the coffin?
This requirement...
Seeing Qingshuang hesitate, Bing Li smiled helplessly.
"I'm not in good condition right now, so I can only pass on the inheritance to you through the coffin; otherwise, you won't be able to receive the full amount."
"Go up. In my current state, I only have a sliver of obsession left; my soul doesn't even exist. I can't possess you."
Upon hearing this, Qingshuang did not hesitate this time and obediently lay down on the ice coffin.
Bing Li shook her head and smiled before disappearing back into the coffin.
Immediately afterwards, streams of mysterious energy surged out of the coffin, enveloping the Qingshuang on its surface.
Sensing this mysterious aura, Qingshuang unconsciously closed her eyes, immersing herself in it.
Within these mysterious auras, she felt countless supernatural powers and insights flooding into her mind.
As Qingshuang closed her eyes, silence returned to the dark hall.
After passing through the portal, Ji Zining and her group entered a completely new passageway.
After glancing around the passageway, Ji Zining shook her head slightly.
"It's exactly the same as the previous tunnel images, only clearer and less blurry."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jing and the others nodded slightly.
Indeed, the creatures appearing on the walls of the passageway this time were still those from the Martial Emperor Secret Realm.
The only difference from the previous passageway is that the murals here are now barely legible.
Ji Zining turned her gaze away from the wall and said softly.
"Let's go see what the next side hall is like. I just don't know how many side halls this tomb actually has."
After saying that, Ji Zining took a step and walked towards the front of the passageway.
Xiao Jing and the others exchanged glances and then followed closely behind, hurrying towards the end of the passageway.
A moment later.
Ji Zining and the others walked through the passageway and emerged from a doorway.
Ji Zining originally thought there would be another grand hall behind the gate, but Ji Zining found that she was wrong, terribly wrong.
The portal at the end of the passageway leads to a valley, a valley filled with Spiritual Qi, like a fairyland on earth.
Ji Zining and the others looked around and all showed expressions of suspicion.
It's not an illusion; it's a real valley.
But aren't they inside the great tomb?
Is there a valley inside this tomb?
Ji Zining's spiritual power flew out from between her eyebrows and began to investigate the situation inside the valley.
Not long after, Ji Zining withdrew her divine soul power, a look of surprise appearing in her eyes.
The valley is filled with abundant Spiritual Qi, making it an excellent place for cultivation, even surpassing the cave cities in the Heavenly Pride Battlefield.
Logically speaking, such an environment should be full of life, with countless creatures inhabiting it.
However, what Ji Zining discovered was that apart from the grass and trees on the ground, there were no living creatures in this place!
There wasn't even a trace of an insect underground!
Ji Zining glanced at the valley, amusement spreading across her face.
"This valley is interesting."
Xiao Jing and the others also inspected the situation in the valley, and all showed a slightly solemn expression.
This valley is indeed rather eerie.
Li Chang'an looked into the depths of the valley and narrowed his eyes.
"I couldn't probe that wooden hut deep in the valley with my spiritual power. Is it the same for you?"
Lin Shan nodded.
"Me too, that cabin is the only unusual thing in this valley."
"Except for the fact that there are no living beings present."
Xiao Jing frowned and looked at Ji Zining.
" Your Divine Son Hall, what do we do now? Where do we go?"
This valley is different from the previous main hall; there are no other entrances in sight, and the only path leads into the depths of the valley.
But something really was wrong with this valley.
Ji Zining glanced at everyone and smiled faintly.
"We should definitely keep going. Something's wrong with this valley, so there must be a reason why something's wrong."
"This reason might just be a huge opportunity for us!"
"Fortune favors the bold; it has always been so."
With that, Ji Zining turned around and walked deeper into the valley.
"Let's go to the cabin!"
Xiao Jing and the others' expressions hardened, and they responded.
"Yes, Your Divine Son Hall!"
Before the words were even finished, they all moved and followed.
A gentle breeze occasionally blew through the valley, bringing a touch of coolness.
Whether it was her imagination or not, every time a breeze blew by, Ji Zining could feel a sense of being spied on.
He frowned slightly, circulating his spiritual energy to protect himself from the breeze.
"Watch out for these winds, something's not right."
In fact, even without Ji Zining's reminder, Xiao Jing and the others had already sensed that something was wrong.
Not only the wind blowing, but even the ground beneath our feet felt unusual.
With each step down and up, it felt as if some of my life force was being drained away.
The amount of life force extracted is so small that one cannot even perceive it unless one is paying close attention.
After glancing at the wooden house that had come into view, Ji Zining quickened her pace.
A moment later.
Ji Zining and the others arrived in front of the wooden house.
Upon entering, I discovered a table next to the wooden cabin, with four cups of tea already prepared on it.
They exchanged glances, Ji Zining and the others all showed solemn expressions.
There were exactly four of them, and four cups of tea on the table. Was this the owner of the cabin welcoming them, or was there some other purpose?
Just then, an old voice rang out from inside the wooden house.
"You've come from afar, please have some tea first. I'll be out in a little while."
"I'm so sorry, I'm not feeling well right now, and I'm afraid you'll have to wait a moment."
Upon hearing this voice, Ji Zining and the others trembled and immediately looked into the wooden house.
However, after the sound just now, no more sounds came from inside the wooden house.
Ji Zining took a deep breath and bowed slightly towards the wooden house.
"Thank you for your hospitality, senior!"
After speaking, he gave a slight nod to Xiao Jing, Li Chang'an, and Lin Shan.
He moved forward and sat down at one side of the table.
I picked up the teacup and took a gentle sniff.
In an instant, a rich aroma of tea and an indescribable, mysterious feeling welled up in my heart.
Ji Zining couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Good tea!"
Xiao Jing and the other two sat down and glanced at the teacups and tea on the table.
It's no wonder they all had their pupils shrink when they looked.
"This is... the Great Dao Tea!"
Great Dao Tea is a more precious tea than Dao Comprehension Tea, possessing ineffable mysteries.
Drinking tea brewed with the Great Dao Tea allows one to instantly comprehend the Dao, accelerating the understanding of the power of intent and the power of laws.
It is no exaggeration to say that this cup of Great Dao Tea is an extremely precious treasure even for Quasi-Emperor level expert!
Now they're each getting a cup, and this is just a simple treat from the cabin owner.
Just how powerful is the owner of this wooden house?!
Is it yet another Great Emperor- level expert?
Xiao Jing and the others took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing their inner shock.
Why do they feel that what they've experienced since entering the Martial Emperor Secret Realm is more abundant than the rest of their lives combined?
They had seen the Great Emperor were previously invisible several times, and they had also entered the Great Emperor's inheritance secret realms that were previously difficult to access several times.
As if by telepathy, Xiao Jing and the other two turned their gazes to Ji Zining.
Could this be the effect of His Highness the Divine Son Hall?
