- Great Medicine Inside the Tomb

The Lightning Spirits left into the distance, carrying the corpse on the woven mat, heading even further into the void.

“What do we do with this fish?” Shenming asked.

There was still the fish that seemed like a Kun Peng. This creature was extremely mysterious, actually bringing them away from the foreign side, as if struggling free from the river of fate.

“It’s inauspicious, just leave it!” Sanzang said.

It was because he had flipped through some jade burial scriptures, seeing that once the Ancestral Fry transformed, undergoing inconceivable transformations, it would become extremely inauspicious, best not to rashly kill it.

“All creatures who can escape its original life trajectory are extraordinary, stand out from the masses. It will receive the protection of the heavens.” Sanzang further explained.

According to what he said, they all shared the limelight of this fish’s blessing, or else there was no way they could enter this mysterious land.

“There are some fish who, even though they jump out, appearing on the river surface, see the path ahead, foreseeing the future, still drop back into the fish, fish will still be fish. This is, unless it can turn into a Peng, spread its wings and truly escape the river of fate.” Shi Hao said.

“Indeed, it will depend on its natural luck from here on out.” Sanzang nodded, eyes revealing brilliance.

“What happened to that river?” Shenming asked.

Where was Ocean Fall, why did it disappear? It should have flowed here, entered this mysterious void, yet now, it was nowhere to be seen.

“I remember I could still see it just now, yet after a moment of absent-mindedness, it disappeared.” Sanzang said.

“Yi, it has also chased after the Lightning Spirits. Let’s go!” Shi Hao said.

What was shocking was that the Kun Fry was swimming, moving its tail about, chasing in the direction where the Lightning Spirits disappeared into, just happening to be going the same way as them.

Those Lightning Spirits were too fast, about to disappear in the blink of an eye. Their group quickly chased after them, not daring to dally for too long out of fear of being left behind.

In the boundless ancient land, their bodies were in nothingness, occasionally able to see giant ruined star remains drifting about, adding to the silence and loneliness of this place. This seemed to be a completely abandoned land.

Suddenly, a bone bracelet on Sanzang’s wrist shone, releasing misty colors, as if a five-colored divine rainbow was flickering about, extremely bright and colorful.

“Not good, the void here is unstable, might just cave in and cause a great disaster!” He warned.

Up ahead, there were void cracks everywhere, the world lacking essence energy, looking like a honeycomb. There were holes and traces of damage everywhere.

This was like a realm wall, but it had already been worn down, now already half-destroyed.

Hundreds of Lightning Spirits rushed over, not stopping at all, going right past.

Then, mist rose in spirals, extremely strange within the ruined starry sky, rarely seen. There was a wave of divine aura, this wasn’t divine matter in the normal sense.

Then, Shi Hao was shaken up, because he saw a gravestone, an ancient tomb region.

Sanzang and Shenming were stupefied. Then, they both became ecstatic, becoming excited. Had their natural luck arrived?

This tomb region, no matter how one looked at it, it was like an ancient burial land!

“It was rumored that our ancestors came from outer space. Could this be true? That it is this place?” Shenming was incredibly excited, cheering.

The Lightning Spirits entered the tomb region, starting to slow down, as if they were looking for something. At the same time, their eyes released divine radiance, examining every inch of space.

This region floated under the starry sky, appearing in the void, shrouded in mist. Even though it looked terrifying, there was a type of divine power spreading from it.

This was really hard for one to get used to. This was supposed to be a tomb, why was it now related to the divine?

“Don’t tell me the Lightning Spirits wish to bury that person here?” Shi Hao suspected.

However, that person seemed to be an emperor, his aura too powerful, actually buried endless generations ago, Was there a need to change gravesites?

What exactly were the Lightning Spirits trying to do? Who was this person? This was what they wanted to know.

The Kun Fry also followed along, gently swaying its tail, treating this void like a great sea, speed extremely fast, catching up.

“The Ancestral Fry, Kun Fry, Lightning Spirits, they are all premature forms. Is there some kind of connection between them, all of them needing to take this path to transform? Shi Hao developed many associations.

Finally, the Lightning Spirits stopped in front of a black earthen great tomb, moving around it.

This tomb was extremely grand, like a great mountain, towering there. When they stopped, they began to carefully sense around, as if they were searching for something.

Then, they actually broke open the grave, raising the corpse on the woven mat, about to enter inside.

“They are going to bury that person here?” All of them were surprised.

The Lightning Spirits traveled so far, sobbing and weeping along the way, all for the sake of choosing a new grave for this person, for him to be buried peacefully?

“This tomb is special, I can sense the aura of undead knights. It has definitely buried undead knights before, having an extraordinary past!” Sanzang said with great certainty.

Things were now a bit complicated. This involved the undead knights?

However, the great grave moved. A group of Lightning Spirits broke through, sending out large amounts of black grave earth. They carried the corpse on the woven mat and left once more, continuing on their way.

They left just like that, not stopping, deciding not to bury that person here.

The Kun Fry brandished its tail, the first to rush inside the grave, as if it also found something. However, it rushed out again.

Sanzang and Shenming naturally wouldn’t pass over this place. This was suspected to be the residence of an undead knight, so it carried fatal temptation for them. They entered the great grave, carefully searching about.

The great grave was ancient, the tomb’s earth also ancient.

Inside, the ancient coffin had long rotted, from the looks of it made of stone. It had long eroded under the corrosion of time, merging with the tomb’s earth.

“An ancient tomb that cuts off all life force!” Sanzang’s expression changed.

On the side, Shi Hao was speechless when he heard this. This was just a tomb, what cutting off life force was there? It really left him a bit dumbstruck. Weren’t graves meant for storing the dead?

“I sense a familiar aura!” Shenming further said.

Inside Burial Land, there was a Burial King who precisely had this type of aura. Moreover, he had previously went to the world beyond.

“There were great medicines in the grave that were picked!” Sanzang confirmed this suspicion.

“It is rumored that when the past undead knight rode on the Ancestral Fry, leaving the foreign side, entering the world beyond, he was still far from being a Burial King. Could it be that the natural luck he obtained was from this region?” Shenming suspected.

“Inside the grave, there used to be… great medicine!” Sanzang sighed with astonishment, also feeling great regret.

“Wait, I have no idea what you all are saying!” Shi Hao interrupted. What great medicine? It grew in the grave?

“The great medicines in graves are useless to you, only effective for us, can allow us to transform. Even in the boundless world, if the heavens are searched, it is hard to find a single stalk of great medicine like that stalk!” Shenming said with a sigh.

Shi Hao was speechless. He had no interest in that thing!

“Could it be that those Lightning Spirits who were carrying that person also entered this place in search of the great medicine in the tomb? It doesn’t seem quite right, that person isn’t an undead knight, it should be useless for him.”

“Perhaps they really are purely searching for a peaceful burial place.”

“I don’t think so, perhaps the great medicine in the grave can serve as some type of medicinal primer. Do they want to refine a Resurrection Pill?”

The two Golden Undead Knights were discussing amongst themselves.

“Can you all talk a bit more in detail? What exactly is that so-called great medicine in the tomb?” Shi Hao further asked.

“The great medicine in the tomb is when the most powerful blood essence that has accumulated for at least three great eras produces a medicine, also known as Three Life Medicine!”

Sanzang said. That type of thing, for undead knights, was a great treasure, incomparably precious, something that couldn’t be exchanged for no matter what was used.

It was because that thing was extremely useful for them, and the conditions for creating it are too difficult.

A grave that existed for three great eras, each great era experiencing the irrigation of blood rain, soaked in the blood of countless creatures, accumulating in the tomb, slowly becoming essence, and then becoming medicine.

It was rumored that when other creatures ate the Three Life Medicine, they would directly explode, body and spirit eradicated. However, there were some strange methods that could be used to refine it, turning it into a medicine primer, able to refine the few pill medicines that were hardest to successfully concoct.

“Are there really Resurrection Pills in this world?” Shenming was skeptical.

“There aren’t. I’ve seen some ancient texts that say the Resurrection Pill is a collective term for many medicines, a type of praise, it actually doesn’t exist. Reviving an ancient emperor with this type of pill is impossible.” Sanzang said.

“I finally know why after that Burial King set out before he achieved the dao, his life trajectory was altered, causing him to ultimately become a Burial King. It is because he discovered a stalk of Three Life Medicine here!” Shenming said with a sigh.

The expert who rode the Ancestral Fry into the distance all the way from the foreign side eventually became a Burial King!

Three Life Medicine, for undead knights, exceeded the value of ten stalks of immortal medicines, more important than one’s own life!

“In that case, the corpse that the Lightning Spirits are carrying might be dug up from the grave he was buried in countless generations ago, now they’re looking for a way to revive him? Shi Hao said, coming to this type of conclusion.

However, wasn’t this still too strange?

Someone who had died a long time ago, no matter how powerful he was before, there was no way he could live until now!

“Follow them, perhaps there might be a shocking discovery!”

It had to be said that this region was extremely large. The ancient tomb laid in disarray, monuments towering, mist shrouding this place, just too mysterious.

They followed the Lightning Spirits. Meanwhile, Sanzang and Shenming would enter some great graves from time to time, wishing to search for their own natural luck.

However, their faces sunk, not obtaining any benefits.

Hong!

A great noise sounded. The cries of grief became who knew how many times greater. One vaguely saw countless ancient predecessors kneel down and kowtow, pray, offer sacrifices!

This came precisely from where the Lightning Spirits were. The woven mat they carried released a weak light, reflecting the ancient past.

What was going on? What was happening?

The people behind were all extremely shocked.

“Hurry and look, there is temporal radiance flowing, time gathered into a river! The realm wall there is unstable, reflecting the events of the past!” Shenming said.

For these Golden Undead Knights, whose single sleep might last many tens of thousands of years, even half a great era, only heaven knew how ancient the ancient times they spoke of were.

That place was extremely indistinct, even more creatures’ figures appearing, of all different forms.

“These are the events of the past!” This ancient tomb region was strange, this type of thing happening when the corpse on the woven mat was carried past.

Soon afterwards, Shi Hao became stunned. It was because after seeing some scenes, his entire being became a bit sluggish.

He heard shouts, seeing a fat daoist priest tossed from side to side. He was too familiar, wasn’t that the grown up Cao Yusheng?

Kacha!

A streak of bloody lightning rushed past, making the people and scenes there much clearer.

It was clear that Sanzang and Shenming also noticed it.

“Experts, at least at immortal level!” Shenming’s expression paled, staring forward.

“That’s a daoist master? It doesn’t look like an ancient void scene!” Sanzang said, expression grave, incredibly serious.

“What about the Three Life Medicine? Where is it? This great one is going to refine a medicine, need to defy the heavens!” The fat daoist priest grabbed at his hair.

Not far out, there was a large sinister beast that was even taller than a mountain peak. It was entirely black and shining, fur glossy, but there were also large amounts of bloodstains.

That was actually a huge dog, square-headed, big-eared, eyes a copper color. It was just like the fat daoist priest, covered in blood, clearly seriously injured.

“What happened?” Shi Hao muttered.

Suddenly, that large dog opened its mouth, its bloody mouth terrifying. It bit towards the fat daoist priest’s bottom.

“Motherfucker, this damn dog is biting me again!”

Shi Hao was stupefied, watching this man and dog fight a great battle, chased all around the starry skies, tossing and turning about in this cemetery.

“Damn dog, I’m gonna cook you sooner or later!” The fat daoist priest was flustered and exasperated.

“Stop biting already! If we still can’t find the Three Life Medicine, then there’s no chance of reviving him at all, we won’t be able to refine that legendary pill, everything really will be finished!” The fat daoist priest said, full of emotions.

What was going on? Shi Hao was stunned.
