Lin Yi took the chance to grab an arrow and check it before smiling."Grandmaster Tian Yuan, I'm afraid that this mechanism was created by a disciple of the Cross Sword Art.”
"The Cross Sword Technique was inherited by the two great disciples under Old Mister Hauntingly Valley, Wei Zhuang and Ge Nie. I wonder who set up this mechanism.”
Master Tian Yuan was affected by Lin Yi and started to get serious."Brother Lin, why don't you tell me how to break this mechanism first?”
Lin Yi frowned,"Changing Gen and Dui's position in the eight trigrams will break the Seven Star Soul Lock Formation."”
"How?"
Master Tian Yuan was speechless. The two of them were restricted by the dense number of arrows flying at them. They could even die if they were not careful, let alone changing the formation.
"Gen is Yang, Dui is Yin…"
Lin Yi raised the Xuanyuan sword with one hand and pointed at the rocks under his feet."Step on the root and leave, move on and change on…"
Lin Yi quickly turned to Master Tian Yuan."You and I will act together. Grandmaster Tian Yuan, are you ready?"
"Brother Lin, let's begin…"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them jumped up together and stepped on the stone pillars under their feet to move forward. Rumble... With a loud sound, the ground of the passageway had collapsed, forming pillars that were still standing.
He didn't expect Lin Yi to actually move the pillars.
Soon, the rain of arrows stopped. Master Tian Yuan stood on the stone pillar and let out a long breath. He clasped his fists at Lin Yi gratefully."This Penniless Priest has really broadened my horizons today. I only know that Brother Lin has a deep understanding of metaphysics, but I didn't expect you to be able to crack Old Mister Haunted Valley's mechanism.”
"This is just child's play.”
Lin Yi landed on the ground again and took a deep breath."I'm afraid that there will be even more difficult things ahead. Grandmaster Tian Yuan, you'd better be careful.”
"Shall we go?"
With that, the two of them quickly headed in the direction Di Xiaoli had disappeared.
The feeling of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking had disappeared, and the arrows flying in the passage had also disappeared. It had become much easier for the two of them to walk.
After following the passage for a few dozen meters, they soon saw Di Xiaoli and her disciple. The two of them were sitting on the ground and panting heavily. It seemed that they were quite tired.
"Master…"
The disciple quickly stood up when he saw Master Tian Yuan and Lin Yi."There's no road ahead."
"Why is there no road ahead again?" Master Tian Yuan frowned and looked ahead. As expected, they had already reached the end of the passage. In front of them was an empty space the size of an underground palace.
With the help of the weak light, one could see many wooden dummies standing in the air. They held iron swords and were like ancient armored warriors, wearing battle suits.
Of course, the so-called battle armor was also carved from stone.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the roar came from the deep passage across the empty ground. It was like an angry dragon's roar, shocking the four people to their senses.
Lin Yi wasn't in a hurry to move forward. He turned around and lit up a torch, searching the walls of the tunnel. Suddenly, he heard Di Xiaoli's cry."Lin Yi, look, there's an inscription here.”
Hearing this, the few of them quickly ran over and saw a bunch of words carved on the wall. However, they could not recognize the words. They were like ghost characters and could not understand them at all.
Although it wasn't oracle bone script, it wasn't the simplified and complex script that people could understand. It wasn't even cursive script or official script.
"Brother Lin, what kind of handwriting is this?”Master Tian Yuan frowned.
"Gold characters!"
Lin Yi wouldn't have been able to read these words if he hadn't acquired the tomb raiding skill, but now he had mastered them all."The inscriptions on gold are derived from the inscriptions on bones. It first appeared in the Shang Dynasty and later became popular in the Zhou Dynasty. Most of them were carved on things like bronze cauldrons, also known as Zhong Ding Wen.”
"Uh…then…then do you know this?”The disciple asked in fear.
" This tomb is the same as what we deduced. It was built by a disciple of Old Mister Gui Gu…"
With that, Lin Yi pointed at the tablet and read," The Wonder Sect of the Versatile Sword was created by Old Mister Haunted Valley. His favorite disciple Ge Nie inherited his legacy and became a sword master at the end of the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period. Unfortunately, he had a very good relationship with Jing Ke and was hunted down by the State of Qin. Later on, he heard that there was a ferocious dragon, so he arrived here and built the Dragon Lock Mausoleum that shook the world for thousands of years!”
"This is the Dragon Lock Mausoleum?"
Master Tian Yuan was so shocked that his jaw almost fell off. His entire body trembled."Brother…Brother Lin, are you sure you didn't see wrongly? Is this really the Sealed Dragon Tomb?"
"What's wrong? Master Tian Yuan seemed to be very interested in the Dragon-Sealing Mausoleum?”Lin Yi frowned.
"The story of the thousand-year-old ferocious dragon trapped by Gai Nie and the South River has been circulating for a long time. Many people have been searching for the Dragon Lock Mausoleum for many years, but no one expected it to be here.”
Master Tian Yuan's face was dark, and he seemed to be regretting it at any moment."Brother Lin, we…should we…should we leave first? The Dragon Lock Tomb was an extremely dangerous place. Back then, Ge Nia had spent decades of effort to trap this ferocious flood dragon.”
"I'm already here, it's not my place to go back like this.”
Lin Yi smiled faintly, his eyes filled with confidence as he looked at the tunnel."It seems that the roar just now was made by that vicious dragon. However, from the Spring and Autumn Warring States period to the present, it has at least a few thousand years of history. This flood dragon can live for thousands of years?"
Lin Yi lowered his head to think."No matter what, we have to go in and take a look. Even if it's a true dragon, I'll make it my pet.”
Lin Yi walked to the edge of the clearing with the sword and sneered,"Ge Nia used these stone statues as traps to prevent outsiders from entering, not to lock the dragon, right?”
