C261 First Time Entering the Ancient Tomb



C261 First Time Entering the Ancient Tomb

"So magical!"    

    

The white light was only the beginning. Then, another purple pillar of light landed on the chessboard, right next to the white chess piece, turning into a black chess piece.    

    

Wang Hao asked, "Are we going to play chess and challenge the game?"    

    

Lin Yu smiled bitterly and said, "That's right. Only by winning the black chess piece can you open the tomb door."    

    

Jia Houwei laughed and said, "I can't even get through three months. Old man, your chess skills are a bit bad!"    

    

"Sigh, I think my chess skills are alright, but..."    

    

Jia Houwei was eager to give it a try. "Let me try!"    

    

Lin Yu moved aside and made an inviting gesture. After that, Jia Houwei waved his arm without hesitation.    

    

With a thought, another white light fell on the chessboard.    

    

After only 36 moves, Jia Houwei was defeated.    

    

"F * ck! This is too difficult!"    

    

Wang Hao had been watching from the side. He could clearly see the scene on the chessboard. The chess style of the black pieces was very orderly. Jia Houwei was not a match at all.    

    

Just as the three of them were at their wits' end, the Fourth Elder's excited voice sounded from outside.    

    

"Patriarch, Elder Wang is here!"    

    

Everyone looked over and saw the Fourth Elder respectfully inviting a white-haired elder over.    

    

Lin Yu introduced, "This Elder Wang is an extremely famous chess player in Holy Domain. He has not lost in chess for more than twenty years!"    

    

Elder Wang walked forward. Lin Yu hastily bowed.    

    

"Fourth Elder has already told me. Let me give it a try!"    

    

Lin Yu said respectfully, "Then I'll leave it to you!"    

    

Elder Wang casually dropped his hand, and a white light flashed. Following that, the black piece landed.    

    

Elder Wang's chess speed was very fast, and his chess path was bizarre. Wang Hao could not help but praise in his heart, This Elder Wang's chess skills are indeed impressive. He might really be able to break this chess formation!"    

    

The black and white chess pieces soon reached sixty moves. At that instant, Elder Wang's speed of placing the pieces finally slowed down.    

    

Wang Hao could clearly see the stern look on Elder Wang's face.    

    

After a hundred moves, Elder Wang would spend a long time pondering the outcome of each move, before he began to frown.    

    

After a hundred and thirty strikes, Elder Wang gave up.    

    

"Such an impressive and rigorous chess technique!"    

    

Seeing Elder Wang admit defeat, Lin Yu hurriedly asked, "Elder Wang..."    

    

Elder Wang waved his hand. "I was careless. Let's play another round."    

    

Lin Yu heaved a sigh of relief. If even Elder Wang failed to break the game, the Lin's wish to break the curse would be completely shattered.    

    

In the new round, Elder Wang was extremely serious when he placed the first piece.    

    

The first thirty moves were evenly matched. From the thirty-first move onwards, Elder Wang simply sat on the ground with his legs crossed, deep in thought.    

    

After playing chess for half a day, both sides had placed a total of one hundred and sixty-four pieces.    

    

The giant chessboard was almost fully occupied by the pieces. Elder Wang's forehead was already covered in sweat.    

    

Everyone stared at the chessboard, not daring to make a sound, as if they were afraid of disturbing Elder Wang's thoughts.    

    

The one hundred and sixty-fifth hand had yet to land. After pondering for a moment, Elder Wang rose to his feet.    

    

"Sigh... As expected, there's always someone better than me. I'm utterly convinced that I've lost!"    

    

After saying that, he cupped his hands at Lin Yu and said, "Patriarch Lin, it's not that I am unwilling to help you. It's just that the difficulty of this game has far exceeded my standard!"    

    

Lin Yu's face was ashen. He looked at the tomb door not far away, and his eyes were filled with unwillingness and despair.    

    

Lin Fei also lowered her head. The last hope of the Lin had been destroyed.    

    

"Wait!"    

    

Wang Hao suddenly broke the silence. He frowned and asked, "Uncle Lin, did you send someone to check the tomb door?"    

    

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head, "This is the tomb of the Divine Martial Stage Expert. The tomb door must be filled with danger. If I can't break the game, how can I let my people die in vain?"    

    

Wang Hao smiled. He had used the Golden Pupil to observe the tomb door and the chessboard for half a day.    

    

"It seems like Uncle Lin has been deceived by the common sense I know."    

    

Lin Yu was puzzled. "How do you understand this?"    

    

Wang Hao did not explain. He walked to the edge of the cliff and jumped down!    

    

"Wang Hao!" "Boss!"    

    

Lin Fei and Jia Houwei hurriedly ran to the edge of the cliff. This was the Ancient Martial Tomb. Such a rash action would bring about a fatal disaster!    

    

However, the two of them clearly saw that Wang Hao's feet landed on the chessboard. He did not encounter any danger!    

    

Lin Yu and the few elders were also dumbfounded. Lin Yu muttered, "How is this possible..."    

    

Wang Hao lit the Golden Pupil and activated the True Dragon Eye. In his vision, the entire chessboard did not contain any danger.    

    

He strode towards the tomb door. Every step he took was deeply rooted in the heart of the person standing on the cliff.    

    

Sixty steps. In a short thirty breaths of time, Wang Hao had already arrived in front of the tomb door.    

    

Wang Hao's hands reached deep into the tomb and touched the tomb door. He then exerted force on his arms.    

    

"Rumble!"    

    

With the sound of a huge mechanism turning, the tomb door opened!    

    

Lin Yu's body trembled, "So... so we were blinded by ourselves. This chessboard is just a decoy! Actually, there is no danger at all!"    

    

The tomb door had already been opened. Wang Hao turned around and waved at the person on the cliff.    

    

" There is no danger. Come here! "    

    

Lin Yu and Lin Fei jumped down in a hurry. Jia Houwei followed closely behind. Third and Fourth Elder called the other people in the tomb and gathered together.    

    

Wang Hao saw Chen Lin and Tiger. Both of them were pleasantly surprised to see Wang Hao.    

    

"Mr. Wang, you are still alive!"    

    

Wang Hao gave both of them a big hug, "If I am not alive, do you still want me to die?"    

    

Chen Lin smiled but did not say anything. Tiger smiled awkwardly.    

    

Wang Hao asked, "Tiger, the soul weapon I made for you, is it convenient to use?"    

    

The tiger summoned the soul armament and played with it a few times, "It's very convenient!"    

    

Wang Hao nodded, "After exploring the ancient tomb, I will rebuild it for you!"    

    

The tiger happily agreed and the group began to explore the ancient tomb.    

    

For the burial place of Lin Xiao, Lin Yu had put in a lot of effort. There were a total of twelve Heaven Martial Stage Expert and thirty-seven Earth Martial Stage warriors in the exploration team.    

    

Especially Lin Yu and the four elders. The strongest Great Elder was already at the seventh level of the Profound Martial Stage!    

    

Wang Hao, Jia Houwei and Lin Fei were naturally protected at the center of the team. The four elders were at the front, back, left, and right of the team.    

    

Obviously, the Lin family were all experts in tomb exploration. There were six Earth Martial Stage warriors who took out all kinds of exploration tools from the Essence Ring to search for traces.    

    

A Lin family warrior called out a dozen or so puppet rats from the Essence Ring. Their eyes were emitting a red light, and they disappeared into every fork of the tomb.    

    

The warrior then took out a scroll from the Essence Ring and laid it flat on the ground.    

    

The scroll was very clean, and there were no words or patterns on it.    

    

This person silently chanted an incantation, then cut open his palm and dripped his blood onto the scroll.    

    

Something magical happened. The blood that fell on the scroll actually moved on its own, turning into extremely thin threads that continuously extended on the scroll.    

    

After half an incense stick of time, a detailed map of the graveyard appeared on the scroll.    

    

Jia Houwei couldn't help but exclaim, "It's true that there are experts in the field. I'm afraid that no one in the entire continent is stronger than the Lin family in terms of exploring the ancient tomb!"    

    

Lin Fei smiled and explained, "The little mouse just now is called the pathfinder mouse. There is a mechanism hidden within its body that can sense the surrounding environment. Wherever it goes, it can draw the map to where it is."    

    

While the two of them were conversing, the Fourth Elder who was watching suddenly let out a surprised voice.    

    

"Eh? Strange!"    

    

Everyone looked over and saw Fourth Elder pointing at the scroll and saying with a serious expression, "Look, this map drawn by the Rodent Explorer, no matter how we go, we will all die!"    

    

Wang Hao took a closer look and found that it was as Fourth Elder had said. The passageways in the tomb were connected to each other like a maze. No matter which path they took, the heaviest path would lead to death.    

    

"There can't be a passageway that is full of dead ends." Wang Hao frowned and said, "Unless..."    

    

Wang Hao suddenly remembered the Iron Castle that trapped him and Duan Chun in Red Flame Domain.    

    

Lin Fei interrupted, "Unless the entire graveyard is full of traps, and every corridor is part of the traps."    

    

Lin Yu's expression was serious, "If it is really as Feier said, unless we can find the trap. And destroy them, no matter how we go, ___ said. We will be trapped in the maze because we can't find a way out. "    

    

Wang Hao was puzzled, "Lin is good at finding secrets. Have we never encountered another Ancient Martial Tomb like this?"    

    

The Third Elder said in a deep voice, "It's not that our Lin has never encountered a similar situation in the Ancient Martial Tomb. It's because this kind of mechanism is the most difficult to crack. We need a long time to test it before we can find a way out."    

    

Wang Hao looked at Jia Houwei. Jia Houwei shrugged and said, "Don't look at me like that. You have to know that I am lucky. After all, it is luck, and there is no 100% chance of success. If I am like the last time, I will walk by feeling. I will probably take you all to the path of death.    

    

Wang Hao felt helpless when he heard Jia Houwei's words. Luck was intangible and intangible. Being effective once did not mean that it was effective every time. Besides, they had yet to figure out the mechanism of the tomb and how it worked.    

    

"We can only try it first!"    

    

Lin Yu led the group towards the depths of the tomb. After walking for about ten meters, there was a rumbling sound in the depths of the tomb.    

    

Lin Yu's expression changed instantly. He hurriedly warned, "The mechanism is working. Everyone be careful!"    

    

Everyone immediately became alert. They saw the path in front of them slowly move, and soon a new path was formed.    

    

A warrior immediately controlled the pathfinder rat to quickly clear the path.    

    

"There is a dead end ahead. We can only retreat first."    

    

Just as everyone was about to turn around, Wang Hao suddenly warned loudly, "There are arrows. Be careful!"    

    

Before he could finish his words, a mechanism suddenly descended from the four walls of the tunnel, revealing flying arrows emitting a cold light.    

    

"Swish! Swish! Swish!    

    

The arrows shot out in all directions, bringing with them a powerful force as they shot toward the crowd.    

    

"Hundred Swords Arrives East!"    

    

Wang Hao did not hesitate to use his martial skill. Hundreds of sword qi appeared out of thin air and slashed towards the arrows.    

    

"Ding!    

    

The sound of weapons colliding could be heard without an end. After three breaths, all the flying arrows were cut down by Wang Hao's sword qi.    

    

Many Earth Martial Stage warriors let out a sigh of relief and looked at Wang Hao with grateful eyes. Their realm was slightly lower, and their reaction speed was slower than the Heaven Martial Stage Expert. If it wasn't for Wang Hao's help, they would have died.    

    

Wang Hao's Golden Pupil became even deeper. He said in a deep voice, "Everyone, don't relax. The danger hasn't passed yet!"    

    

As he said this, a green light suddenly appeared under everyone's feet!    

    

"Oh no! It's an array formation!"    

    

The glowing green formation stopped everyone in their tracks. Wang Hao tried to leave the range of the formation, but he couldn't even lift his leg.    

    

What was even more frightening was that a strange energy had entered everyone's bodies, making them feel drowsy.    

    

Wang Hao recalled Lin Yu's introduction to Lin Xiao. When Lin Xiao was alive, he was most proficient in the Talisman Formation and the Curse Technique!    

    

"Is this... Curse?!"
