"He used mechanical magic to keep us out. This gravekeeper really has no energy left."

Qin Wen looked at the gate made of tangled wooden thorns and said in a deep voice.

Gu Xing glanced at him.

"Can you still move?"

Qin Wen's body was pierced with wood splinters and blood was all over the floor.

"Not bad." He muttered, stuffing a bunch of pills into his mouth, and finally gave a few spring peaches to Gu Xing and Xu Ruxue.

After he cleaned the wood fragments off his body, he started eating.

"This door is probably thicker than the previous tower shield. Xu Ruxue can't use the same sword energy as before. How can we break it?"

Gu Xing looked at Qin Wen and said so.

He could try it himself, but he still didn't understand what Qin Wen was trying to do.

The wooden thorn suddenly appeared before. Let alone what other hidden means Qin Wen had, if he had taken out the magic weapon Xiaozhou that he had exposed before to block it, Elder Jian and Qin Huayan probably wouldn't have been in any danger.

And now, the two of them fell into the main tomb chamber, and their life or death was unknown.

Under such circumstances, Qin Wen was not in a hurry to rescue them, but instead began to rest and recover.

Is it the ruthless imperial family?

Or is there another reason?

Seeing this situation, Gu Xing, who was originally unable to hold back, also gave up his plan to take action.

"It's okay. I still have some tricks up my sleeve. I didn't want to use them, but I didn't expect that after such a long time, the gravekeeper still has such strong power."

Even though he was seriously injured, Qin Wen remained calm.

Xu Ruxue, who was standing by, saw Qin Wen's attitude and wanted to say something, but she kept silent and just took the time to recover, so that even if something unexpected happened later, she would still have the strength to resist.

Gu Xing pulled out the several pieces of wood that were inserted into his abdomen with an expressionless face, and then began to recover silently.

After a while, Qin Wen finally stood up.

Gu Xing looked at him.

"Are you going to take action?"

"Ah."

He nodded slightly, and then a bronze lamp suddenly appeared in Qin Wen's hand.

The shape of the lamp is somewhat strange, like a long dragon hovering on a pillar.

The dragon's head is on top, and there is a lit candle in the dragon's mouth.

This is Qin Wen’s lamp.

Gu Xing immediately saw the special feature of this bronze lamp, which was the breath that came from the soul.

However, the candlelight on this lamp seemed a little special, and it made the soul tremble.

Qin Wen didn't explain much. He controlled the candlelight and spread it to the wooden door in front of him.

Usually, the burning lamp in people's bodies is just a manifestation of power and does not have any entity.

But the light from Qin Wen's lamp fell on the wooden door and suddenly burned violently.

The fire suddenly grew bigger and thick black smoke filled the tomb.

But the three of them were all practitioners, so they were naturally not afraid of poisoning or suffocation caused by the black smoke.

They either used water shields or internal energy to keep the black smoke outside their bodies.

In a short while, the wooden door was completely burned, leaving only charcoal on the ground.

Looking into the main tomb chamber, it was almost covered with dense wooden thorns. Only where the bronze coffin was located, there was some open space that was not covered by the wooden thorns.

The flames were spreading inwards. With the help of the firelight, the three people could see that on the dome of the main tomb chamber, there were two figures pierced by wooden spikes and nailed to the dome.

One of the figures was already motionless, but the other was still moving.

"Rescue."

Seeing this, Qin Wen immediately said something, and then began to swing his sword at the wooden spikes that filled the main tomb chamber.

These wood thorns were densely packed, but each one was not strong, and the fire had not stopped.

Soon, a space was cleared in the main tomb chamber.

The two figures that were nailed to the dome were also rescued by him at this time.

"Master Qin..."

Qin Huayan had a worried look on his face, and blood was constantly flowing from several holes on his body.

Beside him, Old Jian fell to the ground, with several holes on his body, but he was no longer making any sound.

Gu Xing looked at the holes on Mr. Jian's body and felt a little bit unbelievable.

Is it that easy to die?

When he entered the tomb before, there was a hole in Mr. Jian's abdomen, but he acted as if nothing had happened at that time.

Who would have thought that it was just a few more holes and didn't hit any vital parts, but he died just like that.

Life and death are unpredictable, everyone mourns in silence.

However, the moment of silence was short because the gravekeeper had not yet been dealt with.

The dense thorns not only blocked the road, but also blocked their sight.

Therefore, they cannot see the gravekeeper.

But they also knew that the gravekeepers were in a very bad condition, and might have fallen silent due to lack of energy. Otherwise, they would not have driven them out of the main tomb chamber using a large number of wooden spikes.

Apart from this, the gravekeeper did not react at all after entering the main tomb chamber, which also explains a lot.

This is also the reason why Qin Wen did not rush to deal with the gravekeeper, but first rescued Qin Huayan and Mr. Jian from the wooden thorns.

However, looking at Qin Wen, Gu Xing still had doubts in his heart.

After rescuing Qin Huayan, Qin Wen no longer cared about him. He did not give him any elixir or the magical spring peach, but let him recover on his own.

But Gu Xing said nothing and just followed Qin Wen.

The fire in the main tomb chamber was obviously under Qin Wen's control. It burned the wooden thorns while avoiding them.

Soon, the flames swept through the entire main tomb chamber, leaving large areas of charred ground.

By the way, isn't it a bit too filial to burn fire in your own ancestral grave?

Looking at this scene, Gu Xing couldn't help but think.

But soon, his attention was attracted by the puppet at the end of the flame.

If the previous puppets seemed ordinary, they were actually very extraordinary.

So now the puppet in their eyes has almost turned into a piece of motionless wood.

It was quietly rooted in the ground, its body motionless, only its dim scarlet eyes flickering from time to time.

But when it saw everyone, the puppet's scarlet eyes suddenly began to flash violently.

Just when everyone thought it was going to continue its riot, only a few faint words came out of its mouth.

"Anyone who trespasses into...King Wu's...tomb will be killed..."

As soon as the words fell, the scarlet light that was flashing violently in its eyes suddenly went out.

Then its head drooped and hung to the side like a real puppet.

After its energy was completely exhausted, it died.
