C49 Tomb Robber(1)

For over a year, I took advantage of my immortal body... I cultivated my mental energy without sleep or rest. When doing basic cultivation, continuous cultivation was the best way to improve. This was a process of tempering, and he didn't need any mental enlightenment. It was just like a martial artist's cultivation. After reaching a certain level, hard cultivation was not the best method. The key to raising one's level was the comprehension by chance. Therefore, comprehension was the main method for the late stages of the cultivation of a high level martial artist.

Because I don't sleep, don't drink, don't eat, and the dark environment underground completely separated me from the complex outside world... My progress is very fast. Rather than saying that my improvement is a regression, my tyrannical strength... Under the erosion of the death aura, the qi in my dantian slowly shrank. The evidence that my body became weak was that I could no longer see the dark environment in the cemetery clearly. The luminous pearl is no longer enough to allow me to see what is inside the tomb. However, my mental strength is unprecedentedly powerful. I can rely on meditation to sense all the minute changes in my surroundings. Within a range of 500 feet, two beetles are mating. On the ground, a scorpion stabbed its venomous pincer into the abdomen of a Sandjump Rat. A Desert Venom Snake was coiled in the dark, occasionally spitting out its tongue.

Wait a minute. I heard the whispers of the dead not far away, "Slow down, slow down!"

My heart is in ecstasy, is it done? I can sense the information of the dead?

"I wonder if there will be any dangerous mechanisms, what a huge tomb, my luck today is really good"

I was depressed, those are not the words of the dead, they are people!

This is already the heart of the desert, who would come here? This mausoleum itself has many dangerous mechanisms, but I already dismantled some of them before. I was previously a peerless martial artist, so it naturally wasn't difficult for me to deal with these mechanisms.

Who came? I have already lost the ability to determine the strength of the other party.

Rustling sounds gradually approached from afar. There were a total of eight people. Because they were afraid of unknown dangers, their movements were very careful and their speed was very slow.

Tomb raiders! I have basically determined their identities. I do not have a strong dislike for such a profession. Tomb raiders also need to put in a lot of effort. Sometimes, they even have to pay the price of their lives, the harsh environment... Dangerous mechanisms often have to face poisonous snakes and fierce beasts, if not for the coercion of survival... Who would be willing to do such a thing? This was the heartland of the desert. Coming here, it must have been hard work.

To be honest, he had explored countless ancient tombs over the past hundred years. Occasionally, he would take out some valuable items to sell in exchange for some wine money. He could actually be considered a tomb robber.

This tomb was very large and there were many tombs. It was like an underground maze. I only hope that they can leave as soon as they obtain treasures and don't disturb my cultivation.

However, these people were clearly experienced and would not rashly barge into the mausoleum. Their search speed was very slow, and only after they confirmed that there was no danger did they begin to investigate the mausoleum.

"It seems to be going very smoothly. Something's not right. Such a large tomb shouldn't have no mechanisms." The tomb raiders felt that it was inconceivable that the tomb chamber that they had already explored was not dangerous at all.

"Ah! Someone has been here before!" One of the grave robbers cried out in alarm, "Look, the mechanism here has been destroyed!"

" Ah? What bad luck! A colleague beat him to it!"

I felt a wave of discomfort in my heart.

"It's not easy to find this place. Let's take a look again and see if there are any treasures that our colleague missed out on." The grave robber was clearly unwilling.

After confirming that someone had already swept through the ancient tomb, they became bolder. Since their peers had paid a visit, they should have removed the mechanism here.

I am currently in the middle of meditating, I really don't want any outsiders to disturb me. Perhaps, I should guide them to find the treasure earlier and let them leave as soon as possible. I was thinking about how to guide them to the tomb of the hidden treasures. At this time, someone from the tomb raiders let out a miserable cry.

"Boss, there's a mechanism!"

I sensed that there was a chaotic rain of arrows in a tomb chamber. There was already a tomb raider who was caught off guard and was shot to death by the arrows.

I didn't dispose of the mechanisms in every tomb chamber because the tomb chamber was large enough and there were many of them. I only chose one of them to be a training ground.

The unlucky tomb robber must have entered a tomb chamber that I have never visited before.

"Dog thief! We were almost killed!" The tomb robber was shocked and loudly cursed, "You have to be careful. Maybe our companions couldn't walk out of this tomb!"

It was unknown whether they were afraid or happy. Since the mechanism had not been completely removed, it meant that there were still many places where the treasure had been hidden. But according to the tomb raiders' habits, they would never miss out any corner that might contain a martyr. Since there were still places that no one visited, the only possibility was that their peers had already died under the traps. Such a huge tomb and such a sinister trap... There would definitely be a lot of buried treasures. Perhaps a successful tomb raider would be enough for them to squander their entire lives.

"Boss! There's a gem!" The tomb raider cheered. It was clear that the sadness of dying together with him could not compare to the joy of finding treasures. The tomb raiders forgot their anger, forgot their sadness, and also forgot their fear.

"This is only one of the tombs. There must be a lot of treasures. We are rich!" The tomb raiders were very excited.

"Be careful, use a stick to poke the door, be careful that it's poisonous, stay away!" The tomb raiders were clearly investigating another tomb.

I was thinking, if we continue to investigate like this, how long will it take for these people to leave? The meditation was disturbed to the point of being unable to continue, causing my mind to be in a state of chaos.

In a state of agitation, I touched a golden cup in the tomb chamber. The golden cup fell to the ground and made a clear sound.

"What sound?" The tomb raiders clearly heard the sound.

"Is there anyone there? Head?"

"Shh."

I heard the sound of weapons being slowly unsheathed. Ever since I started practicing dark magic, my mental strength has increased tremendously. My senses are much stronger than before. Within a kilometer... I can feel any minute changes through meditation.
