Of course, he did not believe that this person would die just like that. After all, it was a particularly cautious profession. The one in front of him must have been manipulated by that person again.
Xu Bai turned his gaze and stared at the darkness in front of him. In the darkness, a few strange figures suddenly flashed over. At this time, Xu Bai finally saw what they were.
The thing that appeared was dressed in tattered clothes. It was impossible to see what shape it was, so it could only serve as a cover.
It had no skin, and its entire body was covered in disgusting red muscles that were still squirming.
“Strange?” Xu Bai rubbed his chin.
It had been a long time since he had seen the strangeness. Now that he saw it again, he felt quite familiar.
The three monsters did not have any consciousness. They only knew how to kill. When they saw Xu Bai, they pounced on him. Obviously, they did not have intelligence and did not want to talk to Xu Bai.
“Quite strong.” Xu Bai lightly commented and pulled out the black knife at his waist.
In the next moment, the black blade, Hundred Rend, exploded and turned into starlight that filled the sky, directly piercing through the three strange corpses in front of him.
From the moment the three monsters appeared to their deaths, it only took less than a breath’s time.
“He is indeed quite strong.” Xu Bai felt that it was not enough, so he added.
These three strange corpses had the strength of the Fourth Stage, and they were just appetizers.
He was looking forward to what he would encounter next.
When Ye Zi saw this scene, she was already used to it, but she still reminded him, ‘”Young Master, you still have to be careful. That gravedigger is probably not dead. Otherwise, such a long passage would not have appeared.” “Yes, I know.” Xu Bai nodded and continued walking inside.
At first, they encountered a few strange things, but they didn’t encounter anything else.
The two of them walked for a while before the front finally opened up. They appeared in a huge cube-shaped space.
This place was no longer wet soil. The ground was paved with square bricks, the walls were also made of square bricks , and even the top of the head was made of square bricks.
It was squarish like a box. All in all, it gave people an extremely bad feeling.
Below them were two rows of coffins. There were about twenty of them.
Each coffin was made of bronze and looked rather grand. Even the lid of the coffin was engraved with complicated patterns.
Xu Bai glanced at it and said professionally,””This isn’t an important tomb.
There are other tombs.”
According to the power of Feng Shui, this place was not the strongest.
In the square space, on the coffin in the corner, there was a candle burning.
“The gravedigger has already left, but there doesn’t seem to be any extra space here. He probably covered this place up.”Xu Bai looked around and did not see the exit.
The Mechanical Puppet Technique, which was equivalent to a fourth-grade skill, did not find anything unusual. Either there was no exit here, or the level was higher than his skill.
Xu Bai was unable to analyze which one it was for the time being. Along the way, he did not see a fork in the road, so the gravedigger must have left quietly and even covered up the traces of the exit.
” Young Master, I heard that gravediggers have a very common rule. When they dig a grave, they will place a candle in the grave.’”‘ When you search the corpse, if the light from the candle changes color, you need to return what you touched and leave carefully,” Ye Zi explained.”
“You mean he opened the coffin?” Xu Bai pondered.”
Since the candle was lit, it meant that he wanted to search the corpse. To search the corpse, he had to open the coffin.
Xu Bai suddenly thought of something.
Perhaps there was an exit in these coffins.
Thinking of this, Xu Bai came to a coffin and inserted the black blade Hundred Break into the crack. He then gently lifted it.
The seemingly heavy coffin lid was easily opened by him.
Xu Bai walked forward and looked at the pile of bones inside. He used the black blade Hundred Rend to search, but he couldn’t find an exit.
He even poked the bottom of the coffin with the Black Blade Hundred Break, but there was nothing unusual.
“Continue. ”
He didn’t stop. He started to flip through the bronze coffins one by one. He opened every coffin lid, but other than the corpses, he didn’t see any other passages.
All the coffins in the surroundings had been rummaged through, except for the one with the candle in the corner.
“Let’s go take a look.” Xu Bai walked over.

When he inserted the black blade Hundred Rend into the gap of the bronze coffin, a chilling aura suddenly flowed out from the gap.
The bright flame of the candle that was placed on the coffin suddenly swayed. Due to the swaying of the flame, the surrounding light and shadow kept intertwining.
Xu Bai looked at it and smiled.” The atmosphere team sure knows how to make things work. If it was someone timid, they might be scared to death here. ‘”‘
The candle on the coffin was originally bright yellow, but as he pried open a gap in the coffin, the flame turned green at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The surrounding light turned green. Under the green light, Xu Bai heard a soft whimper coming from the coffin..
