Five Frozen Centuries Chapter 170 – The Immortal Tomb

Chapter 170: The Immortal Tomb

Wei Huo had to cultivate the Mystic Yin Ice Soul Skill and take the Ruyi Pagoda from the tower. He also had to collect Dragon Qi from the Ruyi Pagoda. Apart from that, he had asked the Nagas to send people to mine bronze ores. He also had to refine the bronze cauldron into his own magical equipment and thoroughly understand the Human-Slaughtering Array. He could also understand theories and practice and control them flexibly.

He had too many things to do and did not have time to stay on the mountain.

Besides, the Great Ancestor Palace of the Naga’s Great Ancestor was an excellent cultivation ground. The hall had been set up by a master of the Naga Race who knew about Fengshui. It would be easier to cultivate there.

During his second month in that place, Wei Huo finished his tower charge. He was still stuck at Level 59. He had only obtained one level bead. As expected, the reward decreased greatly the second time.

He challenged Level 60 this time, but the five late-stage Legendary-level creatures were too powerful. The five Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth Elementals formed a Five-Element Array. Wei Huo was no match for them. He could only leave and increase his strength before challenging them.

However, during the second month, the Naga’s mining team dug out something unusual. A bronze lotus hidden deep under the ground was knocked out by a Naga’s pickaxe. The bronze lotus contained inner Qi and was so hard that it directly shattered the pickaxe.

This was only the beginning. Soon, the Naga dug out a bronze gate. There were lotus flowers, lotus leaves, and lotus branches carved on the gate. The lotus flowers were lifelike and lush.

The bronze gate was filled with inner Qi. The Naga could not open it easily, so they came to ask Wei Huo about it.

Before Wei Huo could say anything, rumors started spreading among the Naga. “This is the grave of an Immortal!”

Wei Huo found Master Fengshui. Master Fengshui was already very old. He had lost his sight, so he was a blind old man. It was said that he had been searching for a dragon for too long and had been punished for it.

“Are we talking about a huge tomb?” Wei Huo asked.

The blind old man was very certain. “Based on what I can tell… Based on what Heaven can tell, this is definitely a huge tomb. It’s an Immortal Tomb!”

Wei Huo was speechless.

Aren’t you blind?

Wei Huo asked, “An Immortal Tomb? What kind of Immortal is buried here?”

The blind old man carefully touched the tomb’s door and said, “According to the carvings on the tomb’s door, there are many lotus flowers. It’s obvious that this is He Xiangu’s tomb—the Lotus Immortal, of course, could be the Lotus Leaf Immortal or the Lotus Root Immortal.”

A miner asked, “Maybe the tomb owner liked lotus flowers?”

The blind old man snorted. “What do you know? This is an Immortal Tomb. It’s used to bury Immortals. If someone is buried here, their descendants will definitely die a horrible death!”

The blind old man treated Wei Huo with respect. “Your Majesty! Please open the gate of the tomb. The Immortal Tomb will not appear in the world unless a super expert is around to suppress the luck, disrupt the magnetic field, and expose the Immortal Tomb. Otherwise, even if the gate of the Immortal Tomb is placed in front of ordinary people, they will subconsciously ignore it.”

The Naga treated Wei Huo as a king and a servant. They had been subdued by Wei Huo’s power and had willingly become his slaves.

Wei Huo arrived in front of the bronze gate. The gate contained a domain power. Normal people would not be able to open it. Only Legendary-level Wei Huo could wipe away the domain power. It would take at least two months. Of course, ten days would be enough if he only destroyed the gate. However, the blind old man did not suggest that.

“Wang! The Immortal Tomb is not simple. It’s a Legendary-level tomb. There might be heaven-shaking divine medicine and heaven-defying magical equipment inside. If you destroy the gate by force, you might destroy the treasures inside.”

Wei Huo nodded. Two months was not considered a long time. Besides, coming into contact with other people’s domains was a very good cultivation method. He could draw insights from others to improve himself by studying other people’s domains and verify his domain.

Wei Huo arrived in front of the bronze gate. He placed his hand on the bronze gate and felt an ice-cold aura. He found this aura familiar. It was similar to the aura of the Mystic Yin Ice Soul Skill.

This domain was the Mystic Ice Domain. It could thus freeze souls!

Soon, Wei Huo connected everything he had experienced over the past few days. The Dragon Lock Well, the Dragon Vein, the Dragon Qi, the Mystic Yin Ice Soul Skill, the Immortal Tomb, and the Mystic Ice Domain.

A powerful being had chosen to be buried here after death. They had not even died. Instead, they had used their Mystic Ice Domain to freeze themselves and nourish their body with the Dragon Qi.

Wei Huo turned around and asked the blind old man, “Are living Immortals or dead Immortals buried in the Immortal Tomb?”

The blind old man was stunned. However, he did not dare not answer Wei Huo’s question. “The existence of Immortals is just a theory. It refers to powerful living creatures. Legendary creatures change their appearance endlessly. They can move mountains and fill seas. In our eyes, they are no different from Immortals. This so-called graveyard is a tomb of Legendary creatures!”

Wei Huo frowned. He felt that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. The Mystic Yin Ice Soul Skill could freeze one’s soul. If this person had frozen themselves in this tomb, the person who had dug the tomb would have alerted the person in the tomb and awakened them!

At that thought, Wei Huo said, “Wait for me to slowly neutralize the domain power inside the gate. Don’t alert the existence inside.”

Upon hearing Wei Huo’s words, the blind old man thought of something and exclaimed, “Are you saying that this Legendary creature is still alive? That’s impossible. Even a peak Legendary creature can only live for up to 7,000 years!”

Wei Huo’s eyes narrowed. “How do you know?”

The blind old man did not dare hide this. “When the Naga Race was at its peak, a Legendary-level expert appeared. He had a lifespan of 7,000 years. That expert swept across the world and dominated it. Creatures from other races could not compete with us. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful an existence is, there will come a day when their lifespan ends. No matter how powerful a race is, it will die. Now, we don’t even know where that expert’s tomb is.”

Wei Huo frowned. Was this the real history of the Naga, or was it just a story setting?

Could the Naga Race have forged an extremely glorious history in ancient times?

When he’d thought about his father crossing the void, they had mentioned the path of sages. Could the ancients have been strong enough to cross the void and travel across the universe to the distant cosmos?

However, these were all conjectures. No one knew what the future held. Rather than making wild guesses, it would be better to become stronger first.

Wei Huo said, “I will definitely enter the Immortal Tomb. Blind old man, prepare yourself. Come with me!”

The blind old man was extremely excited. “I will have no regrets if I die to enter the Immortal Tomb!”

The blind old man did not say that traveling with a Legendary-level expert gave one a higher survival rate. If he did not enter now, when would he enter?

It would only take two months…

Wei Huo went into seclusion. He told the blind old man that he had to wait for five years. He had to go into seclusion to improve his strength. He had to go through the pagoda and master the Mystic Yin Ice Soul Skill before entering the tomb. His intuition told him that the tomb was not simple. If he went in, he might die.
