Chapter 2107: Chapter 2127: Enemies Meet, Extraordinarily Jealous!_1

A Magical Treasure?

Lin Chen turned his head: "It seems so for now, but no one knows what’s inside."

Lu Yao chuckled lightly, "Let me give it a try."

Lu Yao took out a gold ring from his spatial ring, as if it was made of gold. With a casual throw, the gold ring immediately glowed with golden light, as if it had put on a golden armor.

The gold ring flew into the passage. Everything was still smooth until it reached the place where the stones had previously crumbled. Suddenly, its light dimmed a lot, but it didn’t shatter like the stones.

The gold ring moved closer, circled around the tomb, and then flew back through the passage.

Lin Chen observed carefully and found that the gold ring was not attacked when it returned.

"This must be some kind of attack formation rather than a defensive barrier. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have shattered from the attack, but would have been directly blocked outside."

Lin Chen asked curiously, "If the tomb owner wanted to keep people away, why didn’t they use a defensive barrier? Considering that he could set up such a magnificent tomb and formation, he must be capable of deploying a defensive barrier..."

Lu Yao was silent for a few seconds before whispering, "Perhaps the tomb owner left this passage intentionally as a test rather than a barrier."

Lin Chen’s eyes widened: "A test?"

Lu Yao nodded, "Many great powers know that they are doomed to die, yet they don’t have disciples to pass on their extraordinary abilities. They naturally want to find a fated person to inherit their skills. That’s the main reason why so many opportunities exist."

"The person in this tomb, no matter how formidable they were in life, could not withstand the disaster of this world. Unwilling to die, they built such a grand tomb, left a path, set up some trials in hopes of a destined person. That could explain it?"

Lin Chen thought about it and found Lu Yao’s explanation quite reasonable.

Lin Chen glanced at the distant tomb: "What if we managed to get closer, then what?"

Lu Yao shook his head, "Where there’s a will, there’s a way. If my conjecture is correct, and we manage to avoid these chilling murderous auras, get closer to the tomb, there must be other prompts or tests. There definitely is a way in if we can find it."

Lin Chen stared at Lu Yao, "Why didn’t you enter at first and now you seem to be encouraging me to go in?"

Lu Yao laughed, "Isn’t Xiao Shubo the Son of Luck? Such a person, albeit not very strong, often stands a chance to gain great opportunities. I dared not enter it alone, but with the Son of Luck, I am willing to take a gamble."

Lu Yao was following along, so he naturally couldn’t keep the matter of Xiao Shubo being the Son of Luck from him. Lacking a Promise Doll, he took a Heavenly Dao Oath to retain the secret of Xiao Shubo’s identity.

Lin Chen thought about it and found that this also made sense.

With the backing of the Da Luo Venerable and Linglong Tower, Lin Chen wasn’t particularly afraid of entering. He said: "Let’s see what everyone thinks."

Lin Chen sent a message to the other four people. Shortly, everyone gathered once again.

After hearing Lin Chen’s explanation, everyone looked at Lu Yao with surprise. Hong Guilin laughed, "We really didn’t save the wrong person initially, you managed to discover such a hidden passage, which is hard to detect even if you pass by."

Song Jun grinned, "Indeed, without some luck, it would be impossible to discover."

Luck?

Everyone’s eyes unconsciously fell on Xiao Shubo. Xiao Shubo laughed, "Why are you looking at me? Perhaps my luck lies in running into Lu Yao. This could be a guidance that Heaven has given us..."

Lu Xinyan asked, "So, are we going in?"

Hong Guilin said without hesitation, "Why not? Since it could be a test and we have found a way through, we must try. If we can’t make it, we’ll just retreat."

Song Jun said succinctly, "Let’s go!"

Xiao Shubo grinned, "Saying ’let’s go’ is easy, but as we all know, where there are great opportunities, great dangers usually lurk as well. Stumbling upon an opportunity doesn’t mean you can always gain from it. Places where opportunities lie are fraught with dangers. Once we go in, what the consequences will be, is still unforeseeable..."

Everyone fell silent again.

Yes, big opportunities come with big dangers. Even if it is a test, those who pass will naturally gain a lot, but what about those who can’t pass?

Even natural-grown Immortal Medicine is often accompanied by formidable Demonic Beasts lurking nearby, let alone the tomb of the master of a realm!

The tombs of ordinary emperors are designed with numerous deadly traps that lead people into a dead end. What wouldn’t be in Qin Zheng’s tomb?

Even though everyone is part of a team, they may have to face trials of life and death individually.

Xiao Shubo is the Son of Luck. Even if he does not have enough power, he may be able to rely on his luck to advance. But what about the others?

In matters of life and death, everyone becomes cautious.

Just when everyone hesitated, dozens of golden lights suddenly streaked across the sky and stopped not far above them.

Lin Chen and the others reflexively looked up. However, Xiao Shubo turned pale and focused intently on the man standing at the front of the group. His eyes suddenly turned red.

"Jiang Yuelin!"
