302: You dug such a huge hole, and it has to be you!

Ye Bai took a deep breath and then walked toward the end of the Passage. After walking about three hundred meters, he stopped, reached out his hand, and gave a push to the side. Suddenly, the scene before his eyes transformed instantly.

Before him was a long corridor, and at the end of the corridor was a room. The wooden door to this room was left slightly ajar.

Ye Bai approached the door and gently pushed it open.

As soon as the door was pushed open, a rich fragrance wafted toward him. Upon smelling this fragrance, he felt his entire body become incredibly comfortable.

He looked around and saw gold, silver, and jewels piled up in the corner of the room. Floating above those treasures was a blood-red lotus. The lotus was vivid and dripping, as if it had been dyed red with human blood, emitting a strange aura that made one's heart palpitate.

Ye Bai entered the room, staring at the blood-red lotus, his eyes narrowing.

The blood-red lotus seemed to sense an intruder in the room and immediately burst forth with dazzling red light. This red lotus spun continuously in the air, emitting a strong red glow as if it wanted to burn Ye Bai's soul clean.

Ye Bai's expression was solemn; he could clearly feel the immense power contained within that red lotus. He gave a cold snort, and a surge of power erupted, forming a protective shield that blocked the mass of red light.

Under the impact of this powerful true essence, the mass of red light quickly dimmed and then slowly drifted toward the ceiling. Once the red light reached the ceiling, it rapidly expanded several times over, illuminating the entire room as if it were broad daylight, though bathed in red.

After circling the ceiling once, the mass of red light finally faded slowly into the roof.

At this moment, Ye Bai saw a huge piece of calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall of the room.

“Tiangang Big Dipper Constellation Array!”

The content of this calligraphy and painting was precisely the layout of the formations in this Ancient Tomb.

Ye Bai stared at the calligraphy and painting, falling into deep thought.

The Tiangang Big Dipper Constellation Array, also known as the Eight Trigrams Dragon-Locking Array, was a Feng Shui Array specifically designed to suppress ghosts and zombies. However, breaking this array was by no means an easy task.

This Feng Shui Array was composed of the positions of the Eight Trigrams, and eight mechanisms were set up in each of the Eight Trigrams hollows. If even one mechanism had a problem, it would cause the entire Feng Shui Array to fail.

This was an extremely dangerous formation, so trying to break it was very difficult.

However, Ye Bai's gaze was firm and filled with stubbornness. He had already decided to break this array and naturally would not give up halfway. He began to search for the specific locations of the eight Eight Trigrams hollows according to what was depicted on the calligraphy.

Nevertheless, Ye Bai's speed was very fast. In less than a minute, he found the eight Eight Trigrams hollows. This array was indeed formidable; even with the foundation of the Eight Trigrams Dragon-Locking Array, it took him a full five hours to break all the mechanisms in the eight hollows.

After completing the mechanisms for the eight hollows, he took out a divination compass and then placed nine precious luminous pearls in each of the eight hollows as the core of the array.

The core part of this array was these nine precious luminous pearls. These nine luminous pearls were rare treasures that one might not encounter in a thousand years, and their value was high. However, Ye Bai did not hesitate in the slightest to arrange the nine rare pearls.

After arranging the rare pearls, Ye Bai activated the array.

“Buzz!” With the activation of the array, the entire Eight Trigrams Dragon-Locking Array suddenly shook violently, then began to move slowly, eventually converging around Ye Bai.

Ye Bai took a deep breath and then looked up at the red lotus in the air. At this moment, the red lotus was emitting an eerie red glow. It drifted in the room like a ghost fire.

The space around it began to distort, revealing a patch of blurred darkness.

“Awooo—!” At that moment, the red lotus suddenly let out a sharp, piercing cry.

Immediately after, several lights suddenly lit up in the originally pitch-black curtain, illuminating the entire room as if it were daytime.

“Boom!” Accompanied by a clap of thunder, the originally cloud-covered sky suddenly tore open. A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, bringing with it a scorching light that fell and struck the mass of blood-colored lotus. Instantly, the entire horizon turned crimson.

Ye Bai frowned as he stared above the red lotus; the red lotus had now dissipated. Under the strike of this lightning bolt, the red lotus was completely annihilated.

“This time, I've finally destroyed this thing,” Ye Bai muttered.

At this time, Ye Bai suddenly noticed one thing, which was that after the red lotus perished, it revealed something underneath.

“Eh? What is this?” Ye Bai looked doubtfully at a mass of blood-red substance beneath the red lotus. This mass of blood-red substance was about the size of a baby's fist and emitted a powerful red light. It looked like a blood orb.

Ye Bai looked at that blood-red substance, his heart filled with doubt. He cautiously reached out his hand, wanting to touch the substance, but he was somewhat hesitant.

While he was hesitating, the viewers in the Live Stream Room also stared nervously at the screen, guessing what that mass of blood-red substance could be.

“What is this thing? It looks so eerie.”

“Boss Ye, be careful, don't move recklessly.”

“Could it be an even more powerful evil object?”

The viewers' bullet comments kept scrolling, and the atmosphere was tense to the extreme.

Ye Bai took a deep breath and finally decided to take a risk. He lightly touched the mass of blood-red substance and immediately felt a powerful force surge into his body.

“This... what power is this?” Ye Bai said in surprise.

He closed his eyes, feeling that power flowing through his body. He discovered that this power was actually repairing some small injuries he had sustained while breaking the Feng Shui Array earlier.

“Could this be some kind of treasure?” Ye Bai secretly guessed in his heart.

He carefully observed the mass of blood-red substance again and found that its surface seemed to have some mysterious patterns.

These patterns emitted a faint light, as if they were telling some ancient secret.

Ye Bai decided to take this mass of blood-red substance back for research. He found a small box and cautiously placed the substance inside.

At this time, the viewers in the Live Stream Room were also heatedly discussing this mysterious treasure.

“Boss Ye really picked up a treasure this time.”

“I wonder what use this treasure has?”

“Looking forward to Boss Ye's subsequent research.”

Ye Bai returned to where Xiao Xuan was with the mass of blood-red substance. Seeing him return safely, Xiao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Brother Ye, are you okay?” Xiao Xuan asked with concern.

Ye Bai shook his head and said, “I'm fine. However, I found a strange thing.”

He took out the small box and opened it for Xiao Xuan to see. Seeing the mass of blood-red substance, Xiao Xuan also showed a surprised expression.

“What is this?” Xiao Xuan asked.

Ye Bai said, “I don't know either. However, it seems to have a magical power.”
