500: The body of heavenly thunder is advanced, and the tomb of the previous generation of Gu King is robbed

The five thunder pearl was entirely a deep purple, its surface covered in intricate lightning patterns, and within it, liquid lightning seemed to churn, occasionally erupting in dazzling electrical flashes.

"Such powerful energy fluctuations!"

"No wonder Lei Wanming's combat power could increase so much!"

Yue Xuanji looked at the five thunder pearl, which contained immense energy. The Lei Family's ability to produce strong practitioners for generations and consistently hold the position of Lei Prefecture's Xuanwei Envoy (Xuanwei Shi) showed their deep foundation.

If he hadn't encountered a monstrous talent like Chu Jiang, he might have actually succeeded.

Half an hour later.

Chu Jiang opened his eyes, surrounded by arcs of lightning, his aura terrifying. Within a three-zhang radius, he created a forbidden zone of life.

Realm: Half-Step Fusion Realm

Talent: Extraordinary Four-Star

Physique: Fire King Body, Thunderous Body + 2, Ice King Body

"Not bad!"

Chu Jiang nodded in satisfaction. His Thunderous Body had evolved to the second stage, just half a step away from becoming a lightning-attribute King Body.

Yue Xuanji walked over and said,

"Congratulations, Shao Si, on your further advancement. Are your two pets safe on their own?"

Those two fellows were quite amusing.

Chu Jiang smiled faintly, "No worries. I haven't met anyone who can make those two suffer a setback."

Moreover, he had already sent Blood Puppet 003 to accompany and protect them.

He strongly suspected that Bai Ge was the second generation of the Black Emperor.

...

At this moment.

West Prefecture, Rocky Forest.

Eight hundred meters underground.

With a bang, rocks flew into the air, and a massive hole appeared on the ground.

"What are you looking at? Don't dawdle. We're here to find the Gu King's Treasure Trove!"

A pair of squinted eyes scanned the surroundings.

Swish!

A white figure kicked a person into the hole.

In the underground passage.

Two beasts, one person, and one puppet appeared.

It was Bai Ge, Dragon Teng, Blood Puppet 003, and one more person had joined the treasure hunting team.

"Bai Ge, Dragon Teng, can there really be a Gu King's Treasure Trove here?" Flower Gentleman rubbed his backside and asked. Who would build a tomb in this godforsaken place? He couldn't even see half a bug.

They had already searched two suspected Gu King tombs, but both turned out to be fakes, filled only with various traps and dangers, none of them real.

They were currently searching for the tomb of the previous Gu King of Miao Frontier, Qingxuan Gu King.

"Bai Ge, can you smell the exact location?" Dragon Teng's tail swayed, surrounded by purple light, his large, cartwheel-like eyes staring as he lay on Blood Puppet 003's shoulder.

Sniff! Sniff sniff!

Bai Ge twitched his nose a few times, his eyes lit up, and he said, "The smell of treasure! We still need to dig down another three hundred seventy-seven meters. This guy's home is even deeper than the one your mom set up for you. He really knows how to pick a spot."

Qingxuan Gu King had deliberately set up two fake tombs to conceal the aura of his real tomb, a very high-level trick.

"Bai Ge, are you a dog? Your nose is even more amazing than my Divine Sense!"

Flower Gentleman's mouth twitched. This was too precise! He had never seen anyone locate treasure by smell. His Divine Sense's penetrating power was far inferior to Bai Ge's nose?

"..."

Bai Ge gave Flower Gentleman a roll of his eyes, then had Blood Puppet 003 lead the way, taking Dragon Teng and heading deeper underground.

"First, let's agree: any treasure found will be split three-seven!" Bai Ge said.

Flower Gentleman joyfully said, "Bai Ge is generous! Isn't three-tenths a bit too much, considering I just joined?"

Qingxuan Gu King was once the king of the Three Prefectures of Miao Frontier; his tomb must contain a Treasure Trove. Let alone three-tenths, even one-tenth would be an astronomical sum.

"Little Hua, what are you thinking? Three-tenths is for me and Bai Ge, and seven-tenths is for our master." Dragon Teng, curled up on Blood Puppet 003's shoulder, said in an old-fashioned tone.

When Bai Ge first recruited him, he only got one-tenth.

Ah ∑(❍ฺд❍ฺlll)

Flower Gentleman was stunned. So seven-tenths went to Your Majesty, and three-tenths to Bai Ge and Dragon Teng? Was he just here for show?

"For your first time, you don't participate in the split. This is the organization's test for you!" Dragon Teng opened his big eyes and relayed exactly what Bai Ge had told him to Flower Gentleman.

"As for the future, that depends on your performance!"

Flower Gentleman's mood instantly soared from its low point, and he joyfully said, "Dragon Teng, this is standard practice, I understand..."

As the group spoke.

Blood Puppet 003, pushing forward relentlessly, reached a depth of a thousand meters underground.

Thump!

Several figures fell into a massive cave (karst cave).

A large bone gate, made of human bones, appeared before them.

The bone gate was still stained with blood, but it had dried, forming streaks of bloodstains.

The gate was not sealed, and a faint, pungent smell emanated from within.

"Is this Qingxuan Gu King's tomb?"

Flower Gentleman looked at the bone gate, feeling an inexplicable chill.

His intuition told him it was very dangerous inside.

Moreover, they might not be the first to discover this tomb, which meant those who went in before had died.

"Bai Ge, it seems a bit dangerous in there. Should we try another one?"

"High risk, high reward, understand?"

"Without risk, where's the Opportunity?"

Bai Ge said indifferently.

The foremost expert in tomb raiding once said:

Only raiding Advanced tombs brings a sense of accomplishment. What's the point of messing with small tombs? If fellow practitioners saw him—the Western White Emperor, Bai Zhaoju, upright and strict, the Supreme Heavenly Sage—they'd think he couldn't handle it.

Mainly, Advanced tombs have more treasures and higher quality items.

"You stand guard outside. Dragon Teng and I will go in!" Bai Ge said.

Flower Gentleman looked around; there was no one, nothing but large crystalline pillars connecting to the dome. Was there even a need for a lookout?

"Now for your first lesson: in Advanced tombs, danger doesn't just come from within; there's danger from the outside too. If something changes outside, there will also be killing intent inside. You need to notify us promptly so we can retreat. Being a lookout is a crucial part of tomb raiding. This great responsibility is entrusted to you!"

Bai Ge said earnestly, then led Dragon Teng into the bone gate.

There's a trick to this too?

A hint of suspicion flashed through Flower Gentleman's mind. The words sounded reasonable, but why did he feel like something was off?

Hmm, looking on the bright side... this must be the organization's test for him.
