The Demon God Emperor
Ch. 279 - Enters the Tomb of the Ancestor of the State of Yan
“Emperors who were born in the Tropical Palace but died in the region of the Boundless Ocean. He is the person that this Emperor of our World fears. The emperor had lightning veins, also condensed a divine lightning star, and mastered the lightning bolts and heavenly thunders. His Lightning Technique was unrivalled for other cultivators of the same level. In the past, that Emperor had fought with three Sword World Emperors. Despite not winning, he managed to remain undefeated in that fight. Rumor has it that he was the first to reach the Heavenly Realm in our Tropical World tens of thousands of years ago!”
"Really?! Elder Gao, are you saying that he is the descendant of Lightning Emperor Zhang Wu?!”
"Shhh. Don't talk about it carelessly. You can't reveal this to anyone else. Overall, I have no business in this anymore. I'm just an insignificant envoy from the Tropical World Palace. I don't want to be involved in it anymore” The fear in Gao Yi is still not receding. His fear increased every time he thought about Qing Shan's way of fighting, strength, and identity.
In fact, Qing Shan had only made up his pseudonym randomly and it had absolutely nothing to do with Lightning Emperor Zhang Wu whom Gao Yi said. It was just a coincidence that Qing Shan's pseudonym was identical to Zhang Wu's name.
...
Not long after that.
The battle between the man named Zhang En and the two Soul Realm experts spread like a storm, quickly spreading throughout the entire Yan Country.
While the news was becoming a hot topic in the Yan Country at this moment, Qing Shan had already quietly left the Dragon Valley.
He did not pay attention to all what was happening in the country anymore and he had already arrived at the Mountain where the Ancestral State of Yan was buried, which was in the middle of the country.
This mountain was a very peaceful mountain range that was shaped like an incredible dragon if it saw the upper daei of the sky by hiding a formation that was difficult to detect.
Qing Shan was a little hesitant a little as he entered the interior of the mountain range. The formation in that place had already fused with Heaven and Earth energy so it could not be easily detected.
The Yan State Ancestor must have set up a formation right before he died. The veins of the earth were connected together towards its eternal resting place under the influence of this great formation
Qing Shan quickly found the entrance of the mountain range because of the information he had traced before. There, there was a dangerous crack in the dragon-shaped hill that led directly to the earth vein. There were several cultivators from the Yan State teoah gathered at that entrance with treasure hunting and training.
These cultivators were unable to enter into the deeper levels, but the Spirit Potions and Spirit Ore that could be found in the outer area were enough to make them excited. This resource in particular, had an incredible quality as it emitted Buddhist light.
At the entrance, there were cultivators trying to gather friends to look for opportunities to enter. Those who gathered friends at the last minute were mostly free cultivators. Cultivators belonging to the sect would move together without having to form a new team.
Qing Shan looked at the entrance and had absolutely no interest in forming a team. He had spent too much time in this Yan Country that he needed to obtain the inheritance of the Yan State Ancestor as quickly as possible.
He closed his eyes and investigated all the way to the bottom of the earth where this mountain was located using his spiritual senses.
There were many limestone caves and canyons intertwined deep within the earth that were shrouded in thick fog. Those who carelessly enter the cave will definitely get lost. The earth vein connected from the entrance was extremely dangerous because cultivators who had died in the past would become ghosts and there were also demon beasts born in the caves that were inside.
'This is only the first level. The second level was much more confusing and narrow, with only a few Harmonious Spirit Realm Cultivators searching for treasures there. Also, there were some Gold Realm cultivators at the third level. It seemed like they were not looking for treasures, but were using the pressure from the aura.The ancestors buried in this place to improve their Body Refinement Technique.' Qing Shan said inwardly as his senses swept across the interior of the mountain.
In the tomb, there is a place divided into five levels. No one is on the fourth level. Qing Shan continued to browse the small area on the fourth level with his senses but he could no longer look deeper. While the fifth level became much more mysterious to him.
Qing Shan then immediately moved towards the entrance.
At the entrance, a teenage girl dressed in yellow clothes standing at the entrance looked a little hesitant but she then blocked Qing Shan's path. Her white teeth bit her lips while her nervous little face did not dare to look Qing Shan in the eyes.
“A-ap...” The voice of the teenage girl is as small as that of a stuttering mosquito and cannot continue her sentence.
She had originally felt embarrassed to see Qing Shan's good looks and made him panic.
"What's wrong?" Qing Shan said indifferently.
"A-do you want to form a team with us and enter the first floor to search for treasure ?" Say the girl carefully.
She had a clean appearance, with silky smooth skin, had the cultivation base of the early stage Vein Gate Realm, she also had pure and somewhat immature eyes. It was very clear that he had just entered the cultivation world recently.
“Sorry, I prefer to go alone..!”.
"Taa... But the first floor of the earth vein inside this mountain is extremely dangerous!" His voice sounded worried. But Qing Shan had walked further into the mountain passage and deeper as if he could hear nothing and disappeared into the earth.
After being rejected by Qing Shan, the girl bit her lips with her white teeth, feeling a little frustrated and suddenly a pressing voice came from behind.
“Wen Qing, if there are no ten people in the group, this treasure hunt is canceled! ”
“Kakak Ming, please wait a moment. I'll try to find again. There should be people who want to form a team with us.”.
...
After going inside, the current Qing Shan then swept the first level under the influence of the cold light as he slashed and obliterated the ghost blocking his way using his sword. He continued to enter and immediately headed to the second level.
The first level had spirit herbs that were ten years old more, but Qing Shan had no interest in them and directly walked towards the second level.
Some Harmonious Spirit Realm cultivators could sometimes be seen at the second level, and the expressions of these cultivators would change drastically and quickly dodge after they saw Qing Shan's presence.
Qing Shan was completely unperturbed by these cultivators. He even felt less concerned for the Spirit Potion and the hundred year old ghost who was also there and hid themselves. Qing Shan then stopped after ten minutes of entering the place, and then noticed there was a formation in front of him as light flashed in his eyes.
