915 Opening the Grand Tomb on the Moonless Night (4)

Without any hesitation, the captain headed straight for the hole. Very soon, a wail rang out from below.

This sound was tragic. Xu Qing’s expression changed and he jumped into the hole and stepped onto the third level.

Everything here made him gasp.

The degree of chaos surpa.s.sed that of the second level.

If the second level could be likened to being visited by a single thief, then this third level was as if a whole gang of thieves had ransacked the place.

The surroundings were in a mess, with many dried excrement even, creating a foul and unsettling atmosphere.

The coffin that should have been placed on the high platform in the center was no longer there and was in pieces. A small portion of it was still lying in the corner.

It was empty.

There was no corpse.

The captain was sitting on a fragment of the coffin, and looked around with an unprecedented blank expression.

Xu Qing sighed and walked to the captain’s side to pat his shoulder.

“Junior Brother, my previous life’s body… was stolen.” The captain lifted his head and looked at Xu Qing with grief and indignation.

Wu Jianwu and Ning Yan also came down at this moment. They looked around in shock.

“Eldest Senior Brother, calm down. Are you sure your previous life is really dead?” Xu Qing asked softly.

He didn’t know what it felt like to have his previous life’s body stolen. After all, not everyone could have such an experience. However, he could understand the captain’s current mood.

The captain’s eyes instantly narrowed. He was an extremely shrewd person to begin with. Previously, he was at a loss because the stimulation from losing his previous life’s body was too great. Even if Xu Qing didn’t remind him, he would quickly sense something amiss. Hence, his expression turned cold.

“Are you saying that my previous life woke up and did this?”

“However, if I didn’t die in my previous life, it’s impossible for me to have a next life. So, this possibility doesn’t exist unless…”

“Something possessed your body.” Xu Qing calmly said.

“That’s right. In the past, I was the one who schemed against others. This is the first time in my life that I’ve been schemed against by others!” The captain stood up and his body emitted terrifying fluctuations.

“The chaos in the second layer was done in a specific direction, so it’s highly likely the work of one person.”

“As for the third level…” Xu Qing looked at the captain.

The captain’s eyes revealed madness as he slowly spoke.

“The source of this third level is the center. From the signs of some items shattering, the coffin first exploded on its own, forming an impact before the rummaging and plundering happened.”

“And this unclean ent.i.ty not only managed to open the underground door but also made modifications to it, even altering the second layer’s door. This indicates that it knows me very well…”

“In that case, we can narrow down the scope. The likelihood of an outsider entering here is very low, but it’s more likely that the unclean spirit was born here.”

“Back then, I had many burial items. After so many years, perhaps one of them happened to give birth to an artifact spirit!”

The captain slowly spoke. The more he spoke, the clearer his thoughts became. Finally, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

“But this unclean ent.i.ty should never have, under any circ.u.mstances, possessed my previous life’s body. My previous life’s body was refined by me from birth, and it’s intricately connected to this place. If I don’t resolve this connection, once it leaves the boundaries of the Unending Mountain Range, it will turn to ashes.”

“Therefore, if it’s still alive, it must not be far from here!”

The captain’s voice was cold and filled with killing intent.

Xu Qing nodded and looked at the surrounding walls. There was no need for him to speak. The captain already understood.

“We have to confirm if the other party has noticed our arrival.”

The captain formed hand seals, and the area around the tomb began to s.h.i.+mmer with light, as the restrictions here responded to his actions. After a moment, the captain snorted coldly.

“There are no signs of energy fluctuations spreading out. Although this unclean thing has set up arrangements in this place, this is still my tomb!”

After the captain finished speaking, he spat out a large mouthful of blood. He raised his right hand and clenched it. The blood transformed into a compa.s.s on his finger. The needle on it spun and began to guide.

“As long as it has something to do with my bloodline, I can find it with this Bloodline Compa.s.s!”

At the next instant, the needle locked onto a direction. It pointed toward Ning Yan.

Ning Yan’s expression changed.
