Chapter 1947: Chapter 946: Earth Sect Mr. Pi’s gaze gradually turned sinister, but it was only for an instant. Soon, his expression calmed down as if nothing had happened. He took out the Compass again, walked ahead of the group, as usual, observing the Formation, discerning positions, using the Compass for direction, and continued along the passageway. As they proceeded, the corridor was dark and oppressive, with a strange smell filling the air. In the darkness, it seemed as if unknown dangers were lurking, the chilling atmosphere was terrifying. Everyone maintained a vigilant demeanor, not daring to relax even a bit. Mr. Pi and his team were experienced, seasoned hands, but because of this, they remained highly alert, not daring to be careless at all. Mo Hua observed the scene, his mind stirred slightly: It seems that beneath this Solitary Mountain, there truly is an extraordinary tomb buried? Otherwise, Mr. Pi and his group could not be so meticulous and cautious, as if expecting a formidable challenge... Mo Hua glanced around again, and couldn’t help but recall Master Gu’s words, silently contemplating: "If there truly is a grand tomb, wouldn’t there... truly be ’Evil Objects’ that may have undergone Corpse Transformation or Ghost Transformation?" This tomb might indeed be more dangerous than I imagined... Mo Hua felt a slight chill in his heart, unconsciously moved closer to the tomb robbers, thinking ’Better them than me’, that if there was any danger, let these Golden Core cultivators face it first. Fortunately, the subsequent journey was temporarily peaceful. After walking for an hour, the passageway gradually widened, the stone walls became more solid and stood taller and wider, and soon, in front of them appeared a massive tomb gate. Upon sighting this tomb gate, Mo Hua was momentarily stunned, and then instantly felt a chill in his heart, goosebumps rising. Not only because the tomb gate was sinister, solemn, and terrifying. But because it was evidently a... Water Prison Forbidden Gate! The whole tomb gate, its structure looked almost identical to the prison gate depicted in the Water Prison Forbidden Map, located on the Water Prison Forbidden Box, the treasure of the Water Prison Sect, used to suppress and punish sinners. The roof curled like the fangs of a forbidden beast, the walls densely covered with Formation Patterns, resembling the chains of a prison, interconnected. At the two large doors, the door rings were like a man-eating beast, intimidating those with evil intentions. On each side of the grand door, a figure was carved, the figure had a human body and a beast head, one a bull head, the other a horse face, each holding a shackle, securely fastening the tomb door, as if suppressing the things inside the tomb, preventing them from escaping to the ground. The whole tomb gate exuded a sinister majesty. Mo Hua knew some inside information, therefore the more he looked, the more alarmed he felt, he never expected to see traces of the Water Prison Sect’s legacy in this underground tomb of Solitary Mountain. Mr. Pi and his group were unaware of the secrets of the Water Prison Sect, but upon seeing the severe tomb gate, they also felt a slight unease. "Mr. Hui, it’s kind of strange." "How could the tomb gate be structured like this..." "Doesn’t it resemble... the gate of the Taoist Prison?" "I was just saying why it looks so familiar... Damn, I spent fifty years in the Taoist Prison, this thing is the last I want to see..." "Don’t you find it peculiar? The tomb gate is the Taoist Prison’s gate, so shouldn’t the tomb be the prison itself?" "Who gets buried wanting to be imprisoned?" "This doesn’t quite match..." "Wasn’t it said that the one buried here is... that person?" ... A few whispered to each other nervously. Mo Hua listened attentively. After a while, Mr. Pi frowned and said: "Now that we’re here, there’s no turning back. We’re here for this job, and with our necks on the line, we don’t have the luxury to pick and choose. Besides, we’ve already taken the rewards, can’t just walk away now?" "That’s right," said the Golden Core Cultivator addressed as "Mr. Hui," "We’re after the stuff inside the tomb, why bother about what’s buried in there." "I’ve been underground for many years; seen all sorts of strange things. Those who are bold are fed, the timid starve..." After speaking, their courage grew a bit. "Mr. Pi, open the tomb gate." Mr. Hui suggested. "Alright." Mr. Pi nodded, then as usual, took out the Compass, Bronze Formation Pen, and Formation Paper, and began his calculations. After calculating for a while, Mr. Pi frowned, turned and said: "Time to ’invite the guests’ down." Mr. Hui was taken aback, "Isn’t it a bit early? According to the agreement, only after breaking the gate would we go fetch them to enter the tomb." Mr. Pi pondered for a moment, shook his head: "This tomb gate is rather tricky, will require additional effort. Plus, we just killed those Shen Family people above, guessing they’ll come for revenge, time is precious, can’t delay, lest things go awry. You go fetch them, I’ll break the Formation." Mr. Hui contemplated for a moment, nodded: "Alright. ’Rat’ stays with you." Mr. Hui pointed to the short and thin Golden Core with long fingers, who outside had crushed several Shen Family cultivators’ skulls with his bare hands. The tomb robbers use nicknames underground for discretion, avoiding their real names. This ’Rat’ is the nickname of a Golden Core tomb robber. "Not necessary, ’Rat’ and ’Stone,’ both of you take them, these guests have quite the background, be cautious." Mr. Pi said, "I alone am enough to break the Formation." Mr. Hui didn’t say anything further. Mr. Pi was a seasoned tomb robber, a secret Earth Formation Master, his cultivation might not be high, but his experience in tombs surpasses theirs. Mr. Hui knew, even if they perished, Mr. Pi might not die. "Alright." Mr. Hui nodded. Mr. Pi took out a piece of paper, drew some lines, marked directions, then handed the drawing to Mr. Hui. Mr. Hui then took the other two Golden Core cultivators and turned to leave.
