365: Our ancestors, your amazing technology must not be forgotten!

"But the three of us couldn't lift the Coffin Lid at all, so I tapped the floor with my finger. I didn't expect those mechanisms to be triggered!"

After Ye Bai finished speaking, he showed a look of sudden realization: "As expected of a product of our ancestors' civilization, it really is advanced enough."

Hearing this, Meng Ziyi's mouth twitched.

A strong sense of frustration rose in her heart. She felt that having lived for decades, she wasn't even as smart as Ye Bai; it was truly tragic.

Not only that, but the sense of shame in Meng Ziyi's heart grew stronger, making her want to dig a hole and crawl into it.

Ye Bai didn't notice the change in Meng Ziyi's expression and continued, "Regardless, it wasn't easy to find this Ancient Tomb complex this time. I think there must be some kind of secret in this Ancient Tomb that's worth exploring."

Yang Mi nodded in agreement and said, "Let's hurry then."

"Alright." Ye Bai nodded, then led the two women toward the depths of the tomb.

The tomb space was enormous, filled with various Funerary Objects in massive quantities that looked priceless.

Both Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi were stunned.

Especially the audience in the Live Stream Room; seeing so many Funerary Objects, their eyes sparkled with greedy light, and they couldn't stop swallowing their spit.

"Brother Bai, there are so many treasures in here!"

"Wow, that longsword looks pretty awesome!"

"Hahahaha, you upstairs have poor eyesight, don't you? That longsword is a fake, a replica!"

...Ye Bai glanced indifferently at these rare items, then shook his head and sighed.

"I didn't expect there to be fakes even here."

Ye Bai suddenly realized that his luck didn't seem very good.

Although these Funerary Objects were rare, they were all just fakes.

"Since this is an Ancient Tomb complex, there should be genuine Funerary Objects, perhaps buried inside the stone coffin."

Ye Bai thought to himself and prepared to search for the real items.

At that moment, Ye Bai suddenly froze.

Because next to one of the Funerary Objects, he discovered a pitch-black Bead that looked quite ordinary.

Ye Bai picked up the Bead and examined it closely, seeing that the interior was uneven with many grooves.

"Could this be..."

Ye Bai suddenly became excited.

He had flipped through many materials and read many historical Ancient Books, so he had a certain understanding of ancient characters and symbols and could recognize the patterns inside the Bead.

The patterns inside this Bead were somewhat similar to the copper coins in his hand, but as for what specific characters they were, Ye Bai couldn't identify them at the moment.

"It seems this Bead is a Treasure Map!"

Ye Bai was beyond excited.

At this time, Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi also leaned in to look; they actually recognized the decorative patterns inside the Bead.

"Ye Bai, you said there are many treasures in here, what treasures?" Meng Ziyi asked.

Ye Bai said, "This is an ancient Treasure Map that records the location and quantity of treasures."

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and even a hint of desire.

"Treasure Map?" Yang Mi murmured to herself.

"There must be a massive amount of gold and silver wealth buried here, let's find it quickly!" Meng Ziyi said excitedly.

Yang Mi nodded and was about to turn around when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

She saw Ye Bai staring at the Treasure Map in contemplation, and in Ye Bai's backpack, something shiny emerged and landed on the Treasure Map, causing the Treasure Map to emit a faint golden-yellow glow.

"Eh? This is...?"

Yang Mi widened her beautiful eyes in surprise.

She suddenly realized that her boyfriend was probably not simple at all!

The golden-yellow glow inside the Treasure Map became increasingly brilliant and dazzling, gradually illuminating the entire treasury, making the whole place as bright as day.

Suddenly, a wild wind blew inside the treasury, cold and bone-chilling.

The sound of heaven and earth splitting apart echoed as the floor inside the treasury completely shattered and collapsed.

"Be careful!" Ye Bai hastily shielded Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi, pulling them into his embrace.

A massive dark shadow rushed into the treasure room.

Amidst the howling wind, that massive dark shadow gradually became clear; it was actually a giant beast covered in black scales.

Its eyes were like two giant red lanterns, emitting a bloodthirsty light.

"Wha... what is this thing?"

Meng Ziyi asked with a trembling voice, clutching Ye Bai's arm tightly.

Ye Bai's brow furrowed, his gaze solemn: "This is the 'Netherworld Beast' recorded in Ancient Books. It specifically guards treasures. Its power is very formidable, we must be careful."

The Live Stream Room instantly exploded with activity:

"Oh my goodness, these special effects are too realistic!"

"If this is real, the Streamers are in danger."

"Mi Mi, Ziyi, run!"

Ye Bai pushed Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi behind him, took out several yellow talismans from his backpack, and chanted under his breath. The yellow talismans ignited instantly and flew toward the Netherworld Beast. The Netherworld Beast seemed to sense the threat; it let out a roar and swung a massive claw, easily swatting the yellow talismans away.

"Looks like I have to use some more powerful methods," Ye Bai said in a low voice. He took out a small bottle from his robe containing a red liquid.

"This is black dog blood, which has a certain restraining effect on such evil creatures."

As Ye Bai spoke, he splashed the dog blood toward the Netherworld Beast.

The dog blood splattered onto the Netherworld Beast's scales, making a sizzling sound, and the Netherworld Beast roared in pain.

"Good chance!" Ye Bai picked up a specially made crossbow and shot toward the Netherworld Beast's eye.

The bolt accurately hit the target, striking one of the Netherworld Beast's eyes, and blood flowed freely.

It began to attack even more frantically, its massive tail sweeping across. Ye Bai quickly pulled Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi to dodge.

"We can't just passively take a beating like this; we have to find a way to its weakness."

Yang Mi said; although she was afraid, she remained calm.

"Legend has it that the Netherworld Beast's weakness is its abdomen. There's a white scale there that is the source of its power," Ye Bai replied.

"Then how do we attack its abdomen? It's too tall."

Meng Ziyi asked anxiously.

Ye Bai looked around and saw some Stone Pillars nearby. He came up with a plan: "We'll use these Stone Pillars. Lure it under a Stone Pillar, then find a way to make the Stone Pillar collapse onto it."

The three began to act. Ye Bai attracted the Netherworld Beast's attention, running toward the direction of the Stone Pillars.

Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi searched nearby for the mechanism to push the Stone Pillars.

The Netherworld Beast pursued relentlessly. Its speed was extremely fast, and it was about to catch up to Ye Bai.

"Over here!"

Meng Ziyi found a mechanism hidden in the wall. She and Yang Mi turned the mechanism with all their might, and a Stone Pillar began to shake.

"Get over here!" Yang Mi shouted to Ye Bai.

Ye Bai performed a roll, dodging to the side of the Stone Pillar.

The Netherworld Beast charged over, crashing right into the shaking Stone Pillar.

The Stone Pillar collapsed with a boom, crushing the Netherworld Beast and pinning it underneath.

"Success!" Yang Mi shouted excitedly.

The Live Stream Room erupted in cheers:

"The Streamers are amazing!"
