Palace of Heavenly Kings

Chapter 279 The Underground Palace Collapses
Three days later, Chen Mo absorbed a lot of the wood attribute power contained in the innate spiritual root, and the innate spiritual root produced a self-protection function, which shortened by nearly one-fifth.

Without the support of the innate spiritual root, the entire underground palace is already on the verge of collapse, and there is a danger of overturning at any time.

But this is not a big problem for Chen Mo, he is now deep into the mountain wall, even if the underground palace collapses, it will not affect him.

Chen Mo continued to absorb the wood attribute power contained in the innate spiritual roots. In three days, his wood body was about to break through to a great achievement. With so many innate spiritual roots, it was enough for Chen Mo to cultivate the wood body to perfection.

However, at this moment, Professor Chen and his party finally arrived here.

Chen Mo in the mountain wall couldn't help frowning, so he had to temporarily stop practicing to prevent the underground palace from collapsing.

But despite this, the underground palace is still crumbling at this moment, and any external force may cause the underground palace to collapse.

"This is the tomb of Queen Miaolun!" Professor Chen's voice was full of excitement and excitement.

Following Dr. Hao's voice, there was a hint of anger: "Professor, you see that the sarcophagus has been opened, it must be the tomb robbers who found it before us!"

"Quick, let's go up and have a look!"

Professor Chen's anxious voice came to Chen Mo's ears, followed by a rush of footsteps, apparently a group of people began to climb the stone steps.

When the footsteps stopped, Professor Chen's frightened voice sounded: "Why is it empty? Could it be that those grave robbers didn't even spare Queen Miaolun's body!"

"Not necessarily, I think the inside of this sarcophagus is empty!" the voice of the man surnamed Hu sounded.

Chen Mo was a little surprised, but this man surnamed Hu has some knowledge.

Professor Chen asked, "Why do you see it?"

The man surnamed Hu pointed to the sarcophagus and said: "Look at these rotten clothes, most of them still retain their original shape, which means that no one has touched them at all. If the corpse is stolen, the shape of these clothes will definitely not be so standardized."

Professor Chen nodded: "Brother Hu's analysis is right, the sarcophagus is probably empty. But where did Queen Miaolun's body go?"

"I don't know about this either. Maybe the queen didn't die at all, or maybe this is not her tomb at all."

Then, the ground shook for a while, and Chen Mo, who was in the mountain wall, could also feel it.

"No, this place is about to collapse. Professor, let's go!" the man surnamed Hu shouted anxiously.

"Quick, let's go!"

There was another flurry of footsteps, followed by loud bangs of heavy objects falling to the ground, and the screams of the crowd.

It seems that the underground palace has collapsed.

"There's a cave over there, go in and hide!" the man surnamed Hu shouted.

Then, there was an earth-shattering bang, and all voices were inaudible.

"They hid in the cave, so they shouldn't die, but they can't get out. I'm helping you once because of the friendship I've been with for half a month!"

When everything returned to calm, Chen Mo's figure broke through the stone wall and came out.

Looking at the nearby cave that was already sealed by boulders, Chen Mo pressed his palm on it. He used dark energy, and these boulders would take a while to shatter, creating a scene of natural shattering.

Chen Mo looked at the underground palace and found that the passageway when he came was also blocked by boulders.

groan!
With a soft sound, the Zhantian Sword swelled in the air against the wind, and with endless power, it slashed towards the corridor.

Whoa!
The corridor blocked by huge boulders was cut by Chen Mo with a sword, leading to the entrance of the corridor.

After finishing all this, Chen Mo turned back to the stone wall and continued to practice with his eyes closed.

"It's over, old Hu, we're going to be trapped here!" The voice of a man surnamed Wang sounded in the cave.

"I advise you to save your strength, otherwise you will find the exit later, and you won't have the strength to go out." The man surnamed Hu simply lay on the ground and said lazily.

Professor Chen felt a little guilty: "Brother Hu, I'm the one who got you all involved!"

Just as he was talking, the boulder blocking the door suddenly loosened, and the man surnamed Wang was overjoyed: "Old Hu, the road is clear! Haha, God is really looking after us!"

A group of people cleared the gravel that blocked the entrance of the cave, walked out of the cave, and looked at the passage leading directly to the entrance of the corridor. The man surnamed Wang was overjoyed: "I said that God is looking after us, now you believe it! Hahaha... "

"Is it really God's favor?" The man surnamed Hu murmured to himself, otherwise why such a large-scale collapse left only one passage!

With doubts and awe, Professor Chen and his party left the ancient city of Miaolun.

Five days later, Chen Mo's wood body was fully formed, and his innate spiritual root shrank by one-third, but the remaining part had more pure wood attribute energy.

Half a month later, Chen Moxiu broke through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation, and Mu Xingti broke through to the peak level.

But that night, the underground palace welcomed uninvited guests. Cai Wenya, Master Jiang and his party went back and forth, bringing many people with various digging tools, and came straight to the innate spiritual root.

Standing at the entrance of the corridor, Cai Wenya was full of surprise: "This place has collapsed, it must have been done by that kid Chen Mo!"

A bodyguard next to him bowed and said, "Miss, that strange tree trunk is gone too, it must have been taken away by that kid!"

"Damn it!" Cai Wenya was annoyed, but then she became curious: "This kid is really cunning, but how did he take away such a big tree trunk by himself?"

Master Jiang looked around and said in a deep voice: "I don't think so, the innate spiritual roots are definitely still here, and I can feel the strong breath of life around here!"

"Let's go up and have a look!" Master Jiang followed the passage cut by Chen Mo's sword and climbed up to the cave.

"Look, there is a hole here, and there are traces of excavation around it. I guess that kid is hiding in it!" Master Jiang said, pointing to the location where Chen Mo broke open with the Heaven Zhanjian.

Cai Wenya immediately ordered: "You guys come up and dig up this stone wall!"

Immediately, more than a dozen people armed with various excavating tools such as electric power converters began to dig the mountain wall where Chen Mo was hiding.

In the mountain wall, Chen Mo opened his eyes, his face was cold.

Bang!
The mountain wall suddenly exploded, and the people who were digging were the first to bear the brunt and were blown away by the rubble.

Chen Mo walked out with a frosty face.

Seeing Chen Mo, Cai Wenya took a few steps back in fright, hid behind Master Jiang, and shouted at Chen Mo: "Boy, where did you hide your innate spiritual roots? Hand it over!"

Chen Mo looked at her coldly, and said in a deep voice, "You are really greedy."

"Is it my girl who is greedy, or are you greedy? With such a length of innate spiritual root, you want to swallow it all by yourself, and you have the face to blame me!" Cai Wenya sharply accused.

A killing intent appeared in Chen Mo's eyes: "I'll give you one more chance, take your people and leave, otherwise no one can save you!"

Frightened by the murderous intent in Chen Mo's eyes, Cai Wenya dared not speak.

Master Jiang snorted coldly, and said with a gloomy face: "Boy, those who see the innate spiritual roots have a share, you and I are half of each other, we will leave now, and we will never embarrass you!"

Chen Mo turned his cold eyes to Master Jiang: "It seems that you are the mastermind this time."

"If you want to grab something from me, Chen Mo, you are not worthy!"

Master Jiang's face was ashen, and he said angrily: "Boy, don't bully people too much!"
