Palace of Heavenly Kings

Chapter 269 Leaving the Team
In the passageway into the tomb, there were many broken utensils scattered, and there were several mummies lying on the bluestone floor.

The man surnamed Hu said with some regret: "It seems that this tomb has been patronized by tomb robbers. The hole we came down should be the one dug by tomb robbers."

Professor Chen carefully picked up the broken utensils on the ground, and said with great regret: "Looking at the shape of these utensils, it is estimated that they have a history of at least a thousand years. What a pity, alas!"

Behind him, Dr. Hao scolded angrily: "Hmph, it's all the fault of those damned tomb robbers! They are the sinners of history!"

The men surnamed Hu and Wang looked at each other with embarrassing expressions.

"This is just the outside of the tomb, let's go inside and see, maybe we can find something!" The man surnamed Hu suggested.

"Okay, brother Hu is right, let's go in and have a look." Professor Chen agreed repeatedly. Facing the tomb, these old scholars who have been engaged in archaeological research all their lives have long been unable to hold back their curiosity.

Chen Mo followed the crowd and walked all the way. All the protective measures such as organs have been destroyed, and everyone walked easily.

Many murals began to appear in the tombs, and Professor Chen carefully studied them with a searchlight.

"This should be the tomb of Prince Guyan, one of the 36 countries in the Western Regions. These murals record the prince's life."

Along the way, Professor Chen introduced it to everyone.

"Look at this one. It's the prince returning from a war. This one is the prince's wedding..."

Going all the way to the last picture, Professor Chen was stunned, a little puzzled: "What does this picture mean?"

In the lower part of the whole mural, a woman with a charming figure is painted. This woman is sitting on a throne, and under her feet are a group of prostrate people, including the prince himself.

This woman's facial expression is very subtle, especially the third eye on her forehead, which makes people feel extremely weird.

On the upper part of the mural, there is a masked woman in white clothes with long hair and a shawl, stepping on five-color auspicious clouds under her feet, and holding a three-foot long sword behind her hands.

The most surprising thing is that this woman's attire is clearly the dress of ancient Kunlun women, and the pattern of this woman occupies half of the mural, and it is the most important upper half.

Obviously, the identity of this woman is the most honorable one on this mural.

Professor Chen frowned, thinking: "The mural in the lower part should be the incident of special envoys from various countries paying homage to a queen, and this queen has three eyes. But who is the woman in white with a sword in the upper part? Where is half of the whole mural?"

"The queen with three eyes? Is this queen a monster?" Xiao Yun, a female member of the team, exclaimed.

Professor Chen shook his head: "This queen is probably the Queen Miaolun we are looking for."

Dr. Hao said in surprise behind him: "It is said that Queen Miaolun has three eyes, which can connect to the nether world. Is the legend true?"

Everyone suddenly felt a burst of horror, and their backs felt a little chilly. Could it be that the ancient city of Miaolun they had been looking for was a kingdom of monsters?
In the end, Professor Chen explained to everyone: "That's not necessarily the case. When the ancients worshiped something to the extreme, they always liked to deify it. Maybe this Queen Miaolun has a sense of people, so she was overly deified by later generations. .”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go, let's continue to look inside, and hope that Prince Guyan's tomb has not been damaged." Professor Chen said.

The tomb that had been baptized by the tomb robbers was almost completely destroyed. The sarcophagus of Prince Guyan had already been opened, and nothing of value was left behind.

Professor Chen and others regretfully withdrew from the tomb, then replenished the water source, and continued to move forward according to the map.

After walking for another two days, there is still no clue about the ruins of the ancient city of Miaolun.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, the man surnamed Hu raised his head and took a sip of water, and asked, "Professor Chen, what did the map say? We have been walking for almost half a month, and it stands to reason that we should have arrived at the ruins of the Miaolun Kingdom."

Professor Chen untied his backpack and took out a map and a diary from the bag. He said it was a map, but it was actually a hand-painted scribbled pattern, drawing two mountains like black dragons, with the setting sun in the middle.

Professor Chen recited slowly: "Two black giant dragons are about to engulf the extinguished sun, and there is the gate of the ghost kingdom."

"That's what it says in the diary, but what does it mean? There's a sea of ​​sand as far as the eye can see. Where did the two black dragons come from?"

Everyone was a little discouraged, these clues were too slim, or the sea of ​​death was too big, human beings were so insignificant in front of it, even the ruins of the ancient city of Miaolun, in front of the sea of ​​death, were just An inconspicuous star in the endless night sky.

Just when everyone was downcast, the man surnamed Wang suddenly pointed at the setting sun that was about to fall in the sky, and shouted excitedly: "Old Hu, look there!"

Everyone turned their heads when they heard the words, and suddenly, they were all stunned.

At the end of the setting sun, two black lines emerged in the afterglow of the setting sun, like two black giant dragons opening their mouths, trying to engulf the setting sun.

"Oh, Hu Da, that's Zakramama Mountain!" Uncle An immediately knelt on the ground and worshiped devoutly.

The man surnamed Hu suddenly read excitedly: "The extinguished sun is the setting sun, and those two black dragons are the Zaklama Mountain!"

"There is the entrance to Miaolun Ancient City!" the man surnamed Hu shouted excitedly.

Professor Chen and the others also came to their senses, all trembling with excitement: "That's right, it's there, exactly as it was shown on the map, the ancient city of Miaolun, we finally found it!"

Chen Mo looked at the two black giant dragons, and with his eyesight, he could see that they were actually two black magnetic mountains, like a natural barrier, guarding the entire Miaolun Kingdom.

However, Chen Mo has a question. It stands to reason that the magnetic mountain has always been intact, why the magnetic mountain is broken from it, and the gap in the middle is like a knife and an axe.

As the saying goes, looking at the mountains and running dead horses, although everyone has seen the entrance of the ancient city of Miaolun, but if they want to get there, they will have to walk for at least two days.

At night, the team set up camp at the same place, and everyone was very excited. After working hard for more than half a month and narrowly escaped death, they finally saw the result.

Just as everyone was fast asleep, two figures, one old and one young, left quietly, and the man surnamed Wang who was on guard didn't notice at all.

"Master Chen, I heard from that tomb robber that this is where he got the bronze mirror." Yuan Qingshan gasped and said, he could barely catch up with Chen Mo by circling his whole body's zhenqi and the yellow sand under his feet.

With his hands behind his back, Chen Mo calmed down, like walking on clouds, but every step he took was several feet away, and Yuan Qingshan was shocked.

It took a group of people two days to complete the journey, which was completed in a few hours by Chen Mo and Yuan Qingshan. When the sky was getting bright, Chen Mo and Yuan Qingshan finally stood in front of the Zaklama Mountain.

Observing the gap between the two magnetic mountains at close range, Chen Mo was extremely sure of his guess that this gap was cut off with a sword.

Although thousands of years have passed, the incisions on both sides of the magnetic mountain still have a faint spiritual power left.

According to Chen Mo's judgment, the immortal cultivator who was able to cut through the Cishan Mountain with a single sword was at least a Human Immortal in the Golden Core Realm.
