The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 868: Beneath the Tomb


"Tang Rao, take a look at the map. Wandering around like this isn't going to work. We can't just keep walking aimlessly, right?"

Xiao Yun's legs were about to give out. Once the leader in the Land of Immortals, now even he had a day when he got tired from walking.

"Let's keep going for a bit; it's not very safe here."

Tang Rao's intuition told him they couldn't stay here for long.

Just as Tang Rao was moving away from that spot, a thunderous crash occurred, and a large part of where they had been suddenly collapsed.

Red light filled the sky instantly. Luckily, they moved quickly; otherwise, Tang Rao and Xiao Yun would have fallen into the pit.

"Damn!"

A man's intuition is more reliable than a woman's. I'm truly defying the odds.

Mom, your baby Tang Rao is going to defy the heavens.

Tang Rao exclaimed.

Fortunately, he only shouted that in his mind.

Tang Rao quickly calmed down because that red light had vanished.

What was left was smoke and an empty space still radiating warmth.

If Tang Rao guessed right, that stranger who had been on that land is now charcoal.

Like burnt sails and broken oars, the ancient saying didn't deceive him.

Tang Rao wiped some ash off his face. Seeing Xiao Yun was fine, he felt relieved.

The collapsed area definitely had something wrong with it. If he didn't go take a look, Tang Rao would be troubled by it for life.

"Xiao Yun, I want to go down and check it out. Are you coming with me?"

After all, it's uncertain what's underground, and Tang Rao couldn't be sure of the danger level.

If he rashly took Xiao Yun down and something happened, Tang Rao wouldn't be able to explain it to Liu Mingyue.

"I'm going, I'm going, I'm going! Tang Rao, don't leave me behind."

Xiao Yun jumped to Tang Rao's side, clinging to his pants with a determination that said she'd fight if Tang Rao didn't take her.

Tang Rao wasn't comfortable leaving Xiao Yun alone here, so he decided to take her along.

A large area had been consumed by fire, with not even a blade of grass left.

Who knows if that place would spew fire again.

Tang Rao approached the pit. Around the pit were two corpses, burnt black.

The remaining people had vanished, likely consumed by the fire burst.

Such powerful force.

Tang Rao remarked.

The people he saw at dusk weren't weak, yet he hadn't noticed anything unusual before the fire erupted. That was strange.

"Could these be the people we encountered earlier?" Xiao Yun looked surprised.

Their bodies had been burnt beyond recognition.

During their treasure hunt, they were valiant, but now, they lay dead, limbs charred, expressions of terror on their faces.

"That's right, it's them!"

Tang Rao stood on the edge of the pit, every move putting his life on the line.

The pit was calm.

As if nothing had just happened.

Could it be that there's nothing on the surface, and the underground is the actual path to the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum?

All in!

This pit had no discernible bottom.

The more he couldn't see the bottom, the more curious he became; his instincts screamed that whatever was down there was extraordinary.

"Xiao Yun, I'm going down. If you're willing to bet on this with me, come with. If not, wait here on the surface; I'll be back soon."

The unknown lay ahead. Tang Rao suddenly regretted bringing Xiao Yun into the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum.

Unlike Tang Rao, Xiao Yun loved adventures and was curious about the unknown.

If Xiao Yun got into trouble because of him, Tang Rao would never forgive himself.

Tang Rao had just jumped when Xiao Yun followed without hesitation.

This girl was quite bold.

Tang Rao sustained burns on several parts of his body.

The residual heat of the pit lingered, and he was sure they were the first daring enough to jump down—currently, it was just the two of them underground.

It was unclear how long it took, but eventually, Tang Rao reached the bottom.

Upon landing, he caught Xiao Yun, preventing her ribs from cracking due to the impact.

Were they really here?

It might have been due to nightfall, but it was pitch black underground; otherwise, everything else was somewhat similar to above ground.

Plants and greenery abounded, with not a thing missing.

"Tang Rao, do I look disfigured? My face hurts so much; I think I'm dying."

Xiao Yun touched her burned face, looking mournful.

"If I knew it would hurt this bad, I wouldn't have come."

Despite her words, Xiao Yun was just talking. If given another choice, she would still jump down with Tang Rao.

"Here's a Rejuvenation Pill. It works instantly, with no side effects!"

Upon hearing that taking the Rejuvenation Pill would restore her face, Xiao Yun swallowed it without hesitation.

Before long, her appearance was back to normal.

She barely had time to thank Tang Rao before he pulled two tents and inflatable mattresses out of his Space Ring.

"We'll stay here tonight. It should be safe. We'll continue in the morning."

Tang Rao also lit a fire nearby.

Luckily, they could set bans in the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum too.

After setting up, he'd be alerted to anyone within a two-mile radius.

After a restful night's sleep, Tang Rao stretched and stepped out of his tent.

The sky was light, and if it weren't for the fire-scorched marks, Tang Rao would have thought they were still on the surface.

Xiao Yun also emerged from her tent.

Looking up at the sky, the hole they fell through was no longer visible.

He packed the tents into his Space Ring, and after walking two miles, Tang Rao's eyes lit up.

My God, where had he arrived?

The ground was littered with Heavenly Treasures.

Alchemy materials from Blue Star were everywhere.

He'd been worried after selling too many elixir pills last time that his Space Ring couldn't replenish its alchemy stock.

Now it was perfect; these things were everywhere, and Tang Rao couldn't stop grinning.

"Xiao Yun, there are so many Heavenly Treasures here. Hurry and store them in the Space Ring before it's too late."

Tang Rao took out his Space Ring and began collecting hastily.

Earth Dragon Pills, Heavenly Master Grass.

...

Every item was a sensation if sold outside the Land of Immortals.

"Tang Rao, I'm exhausted. Do you have any more Space Rings? I've already filled two Space Rings."

Xiao Yun was incredibly fast, and soon, the Heavenly Treasures around them were stripped bare.

"Here are two more rings, but let's leave some. In case others come, it gives them a glimmer of hope."

Such speed, not a single extra blade of grass left.

Having Tang Rao leave any Heavenly Treasure would be a shock.

There had to be more than just these treasures in the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum.

Instead of spending so much time here, it was better to find the Immortal Emperor's remains and wait for an inheritance.

"Fine, I didn't want to waste time here anyway."

Xiao Yun wasn't an Immortal Pharmacist; holding these items did nothing for her. It was better to try her luck.

The further they walked, the hotter Tang Rao felt.

Underground, the temperature was the opposite of aboveground.
