On a near demonic stone platform, Meng Xiaodie jumped down and immediately felt refreshed. He walked around the stone room and found that there was only one way in, but no way out. Just now, he had seen something swimming in the clouds. It was most likely an illusion.
Since there was no way out, was the meaning of the word 'eight' here? Could it be that this was the place where they rode the clouds? Meng Xiaodie was a bit confused. There were some clouds here, but it was impossible to control.
Meng Xiaodie felt that there was no point in staying here any longer. He was just about to retreat when something suddenly jumped out from the shadows. Meng Xiaodie thought it was Prince Jadeface, so she dodged to the side. Who knew that it didn't hit Meng Xiaodie, but it fell to the ground and didn't get up.
Meng Xiaodie went over to take a look. It turned out to be a small and thin corpse. The corpse also had a jade mask. However, the mask was badly damaged and its color was dark. It looked like an ordinary jade. Why did this corpse suddenly fly out? Moreover, it was a stiff corpse. Meng Xiaodie raised her head to look at the direction from which the corpse came. It was pitch black there and there was no movement.
At this moment, a cold wind blew behind her head. Meng Xiaodie quickly jumped up and saw a black shadow scurry over. With a flash of her sharp fingers, it was the Jadeface King.
The Jade Faced King Dian attacked from behind without any signs of life. It was obvious that he was extremely cunning. If he couldn't win in a fight, then he would attack in the dark. Even the thousands of years old Stone Corpses could use this trick.
Meng Xiaodie had already taken out her black sword. Now, he no longer needed to deal with the Jade Faced King. He planned to kill the Jade Faced King here.
The Jade Faced King saw the black sword flash and took a step back. He seemed to be afraid of the black sword's power. Meng Xiaodie had already inserted her arm into the inner force and abruptly waved her sword. The sword Qi shot out in a straight line, directly piercing the head of the Jade Faced Prince. Meng Xiaodie knew that if she were to shatter the Jade Faced King's jade mask, he would lose his fiendish aura, and the strange demonic technique would disappear.
Only now did Meng Xiaodie clearly see half of his face, which was covered by a broken jade mask, revealing the skin underneath. The skin was extremely tender, like the skin of an infant, and there was a thin layer of white powder on it, though she did not know if it was jade powder or a layer of pink fat that was already on his skin.
The one eye that was exposed was half open and half closed. Its pupils were dark, and when it moved away, it looked like a baby's. Half of his jade mask had been destroyed and a buzzing sound came from his mouth. His red lips opened a crack, but there were no sharp teeth inside, not even a single tooth.
Meng Xiaodie was extremely surprised. She had only heard that when a dead person wore jade clothes, they would become young. She had never thought that they would actually turn into babies. It was truly strange.
Meng Xiaodie gripped the hilt of her sword tightly and slashed out a second time. The Jadeface Lake suddenly jumped up and landed on the stone platform, rolling on the ground. Meng Xiaodie had already made her move, and the sword Qi chased after the target, only touching the Jadeface King's arm, causing the arm to break.
Just as he was about to swing his third sword, countless stars flashed out from the stone platform, and the cloud shaped circle on the platform started to spin again. The Jade Faced King stood at the center of the stone platform, and the rings of light kept on gathering around him, as if countless rings of light were revolving around his body. The rings rose up, bringing with them the Jade face of Dian Wang upwards, the top of the stone chamber suddenly lit up, as if a door had been opened, and a strong light shot in, causing Meng Xiaodie to be unable to open her eyes.
It was as if the Jade Faced King was standing on clouds, reaching the top of the stone chamber. He turned into a black ball the size of a basketball, and with a flash, the black ball disappeared, and the stone chamber regained its peace. The Jade Faced King had mysteriously disappeared right before Meng Xiaodie's eyes. She stood there for a long time, unable to come to her senses. She flew on the cloud and immediately became an immortal. Could she be referring to this? Meng Xiaodie looked at the stone platform. The cloud shaped circle on the flat surface had disappeared, turning into a normal stone surface. Meng Xiaodie jumped onto it and touched it with her hand. It felt a bit smoother, but it was no different from a normal stone.
The metal frames around the stone room were also quiet. Looking at those frames, the bottom had taken root deep within the rock. Meng Xiaodie shook her hand, but there was no movement. Every frame was rooted deep within the rock, so how did it spin? Meng Xiaodie felt inconceivable.
The body was still lying on the ground, but the jade mask had been broken, revealing the face of a woman. She had a pretty face, and her skin was thin and white. She looked like someone from the Central Plains.
Meng Xiaodie was filled with curiosity. Who was this woman? Why was she here? What was the relationship between the Jade Faced King and her?
The light came from the ground, and he took a few steps forward, and with a 'pa' sound, his feet touched something. He picked it up and saw that it was a jade pillow, and then forward, there were many jade artifacts scattered all over the ground, Meng Xiaodie could see that it was the light of a jade artifact, and then there was a small jade coffin. Meng Xiaodie stepped forward to take a look, the lid of the coffin was already open, and it looked like the jade coffin was holding the female corpse.
Meng Xiaodie felt strange, he had just found this place, why didn't he find the jade coffin here? He stepped back a few steps to take a look and found a hidden door. Now that the door was open, the things inside were naturally exposed.
Since there was a jade coffin, perhaps it was the same as the jade coffin of King Lan, there was also a jade token. Only by finding the jade token, one could know the identity of the female corpse.
Meng Xiaodie looked around the coffin and found the jade plate among a pile of broken jade rings. On it was written, "The Tomb of the Consort."
Fei Fei? Meng Xiaodie frowned. He remembered hearing this name somewhere. He recalled that he had seen this name in an ancient book. As for what it was, and who this consort was, he still couldn't remember.
