Especially the Queen Mother of the West—how many dangers are hidden within her is even more uncertain!
"Is that so? It seems this matter still requires Young Master Zhang to make a decision!"
Princess Taiping nodded.
Although Lei Laowu spoke earnestly, Princess Taiping, as a politician, was well aware of his perfunctory attitude.
However, she also knew that the Zhang family and the Golden-Faced Buddha were behind Ghost Street, so Lei Laowu, with Zhang Xiaoshan as his leader, would naturally not listen to her, the Princess of Peace.
Even though she was a princess.
Even the Emperor Wu's influence was no match for a single word from Zhang Xiaoshan and the Golden-Faced Buddha at the Nine Gates of Ghost Street.
The other three factions were not surprised at all.
"found it!"
Suddenly, a voice traveled a thousand miles, catching everyone off guard. They looked in disbelief at the location where the fireworks had burst open, and then a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
Zhang Xiaoshan was actually found?
Such efficiency and luck made even Princess Taiping wonder if Zhang Xiaoshan had ever been here.
However, Princess Taiping then led everyone to Zhang Xiaoshan's location.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan was confronting a figure dressed in a black robe with gold patterns. Upon noticing the arrival of the group, he turned and disappeared into the heights.
Indeed, it was Donghuang Taiyi who guided Zhang Xiaoshan!
Having appeared in the mountains once before, and now showing up here again to point out directions, Zhang Xiaoshan knew that the other party must be very familiar with this place.
Throughout their collaboration, Donghuang Taiyi maintained a mysterious presence.
However, Zhang Xiaoshan felt that this was for the best, so that in the end, no one could find him to cause trouble.
"Son!"
At this moment, Princess Taiping also rushed over, looking hurried and impatient.
But then, Princess Taiping looked at Zhang Xiaoshan facing a sheer cliff with no entrance in sight, and her beautiful face showed a puzzled expression.
"Where is the entrance you speak of, young master?"
"This is it!"
Zhang Xiaoshan suddenly pointed to the cliff, looked at the puzzled crowd, and explained:
"The Heavenly Book records the method to open it. To open the entrance, one must possess the token between the emperor and the emperor in the past."
This token is a rare treasure that the Queen Mother of the West extracted from the treasures of immortality. It is a treasure that is suspected to be meteorite copper. Therefore, due to the mystery of this thing, Zhang can only use the dragon pearl as a substitute!
Moreover, the power of the Dragon Balls is even more perfect!
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoshan took out the Pure Yang Dragon Pearl from his sleeve.
As the Dragon Ball activated, it emitted a soft red light, and the previously penetrating, bone-chilling wind suddenly caused the temperature within a radius of ten feet to surge.
The originally biting cold wind turned into a warm breeze, feeling like soaking in a hot spring, exceptionally comfortable and warm as spring.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan slowly approached the cliff with the Dragon Pearl in his hand.
As the energy sensed the movement, the rocks on the cliff began to roll and slowly crumble.
To everyone's astonishment, in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a large blue stone gate, five zhang in length and three zhang in width, appeared before them.
On the blue stone gate, one door depicts a scene of priests paying tribute to thousands of people, while the other depicts an emperor receiving the worship of thousands of people in a prosperous era. The high priest and the emperor on the two doors face each other, clearly depicting the Queen Mother of the West and which Great Zhou emperor!
"right here!"
Princess Taiping looked at the blue stone gate, which was exactly the same as the picture scroll in the Dragon Scale Heavenly Book.
The key to opening the door was the Dragon Ball in Zhang Xiaoshan's hand.
After all, the treasure that the Queen Mother of the West obtained was likely a rare stone like meteorite copper from outer space. In that case, the Dragon Ball might be able to replace the key and open the door.
Besides, Zhang Xiaoshan can also forcefully open the gate by manipulating the Dragon Balls, so whether he is the original wife or not is irrelevant!
"The sun is about to set, so let's set up camp and rest for the night. We'll go in to explore the tomb tomorrow at noon when the yang energy is at its peak."
"it is good!"
Although Zhang Xiaoshan's status here is not the most prestigious, he is definitely the one with the most decision-making power.
Even Princess Taiping had no choice but to submit to Zhang Xiaoshan's domineering nature.
Beside Zhang Xiaoshan, she looked like a little bird clinging to a maid.
"Moreover, I'll be on watch tonight. The ground here is blood-soaked soil, which must be hiding some deadly poisons."
The Dragon Balls happen to attract these poisonous creatures, and I'd like to see what they really look like so I can be prepared.
"Young master is benevolent and righteous!"
Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan was preparing to keep watch, everyone couldn't help but look at him gratefully.
Knowing that this was an extremely dangerous place, the nights would naturally be difficult, but Zhang Xiaoshan used the Dragon Pearl as a light source, which naturally reduced their risk of being attacked.
Moreover, only after they have eaten and drunk their fill and slept deeply will they have the energy and strength to face the demons and monsters inside!
Otherwise, a single oversight could be fatal.
"Furthermore, there are various dangers inside, so you must be fully prepared tonight!"
As an extremely mysterious figure from the Western Regions, even exhibiting signs of mythology, the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West is certainly not a simple imperial tomb.
"Thank you for the reminder, young master!"
Zhang Xiaoshan watched as everyone began setting up camp and preparing food, then sat down cross-legged on one side.
At the same time, he took out the Dragon Ball and placed it in his palm, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth mobilized by the Dragon Ball to restore himself to his best condition.
At this moment, as Zhang Xiaoshan circulated the Pure Yang Skill, streaks of crimson light shone ten feet around him.
Even the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, standing on a distant mountain, couldn't help but shrink his pupils slightly.
The power of ultimate Yang!
Although they were a hundred feet apart, his level of cultivation and eyesight allowed him to see that it was not just the light of the Dragon Ball, but also the terrifying aura of Zhang Xiaoshan during his cultivation.
Vast and powerful like the blazing sun, capable of scorching rivers and boiling seas!
This domineering pure Yang Qi is not on the same level as the pure cold Qi of the Mingyu Gong; it is the power of dragon saliva that comes with the dragon saliva fruit.
Princess Taiping and Lei Laowu, in particular, could feel the suppression of the Yin-cold True Qi by the power of the dragon's saliva.
One is a demonic martial art, and the other is the extremely yin and evil Heavenly Crippled Divine Skill. Both of them are restrained by the extremely strong and powerful Crimson Sun True Qi!
"Is this the realm of a Grandmaster?"
Was it the Dragon Ball's blessing? Or had Zhang Xiaoshan's true qi truly reached a realm comparable to gods and demons? Therefore, everyone felt a strange awe upon sensing the intense dragon saliva power surrounding Zhang Xiaoshan.
Chapter 439 The Power of Dragon's Saliva Enters the Desolate Land
The night was still, and the sun rose.
Because Zhang Xiaoshan was on night watch, everyone trusted him completely and had no doubts about their safety, so they slept soundly and deeply throughout the night.
When I woke up in the morning, I could feel that my mind, which had been tense for a month, was unusually relaxed after it was released.
But then, everyone was utterly shocked by what they saw.
Before Zhang Xiaoshan lay countless blood-red poisonous centipedes, scorpions, and snakes, crawling on the ground, seemingly wanting to approach but not daring to—like pilgrims on a pilgrimage.
Zhang Xiaoshan was surrounded by a layer of crimson protective energy, which covered him for a zhang (approximately 3.3 meters), making him appear as sacred and majestic as a Buddha.
"So many poisonous insects!"
The densely packed formations, far exceeding a mere ten feet in circumference, sent chills down everyone's spines.
If these poisonous creatures were to suddenly attack them from underground while they were resting in the middle of the night, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The power of dragon's saliva!
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan's body shone brightly with red light, and a burst of dragon saliva true qi burst forth from his body, transforming into a fire dragon that roared out from the top of Zhang Xiaoshan's head.
The mighty dragon suppresses heaven and earth.
In an instant, the Dragon Saliva Qi merely circled the poisonous insects once, and the insects that were originally crawling on the ground immediately burst into flames. Amidst the raging flames, accompanied by crackling sounds, came the aroma of meat.
In no time, all the poisonous insects were burned in the dragon's saliva flames.
"This is···!"
The appearance of the fire dragon exuded an overwhelming sense of oppression, inspiring a desire for worship in all who beheld it.
Such an unparalleled power! Even Princess Taiping felt that once the fire dragon passed through her body, she would escape being burned to death.
"Is this the power of the Dragon Balls?"
Dragon Ball? Fire Dragon?
Everyone couldn't help but look at the dragon ball in Zhang Xiaoshan's hand, their eyes revealing a hint of greed.
Perhaps only the Dragon Balls possess such domineering and invincible power.
"This is the power of dragon's saliva, an extremely strong and powerful yang energy!"
"Dragon Balls" is simply a general term for rare and precious materials that can draw upon the power of heaven and earth; they are not the actual pearls of dragons. Therefore, Dragon Balls do not provide any enhancement to certain dragon-shaped qi cultivation techniques.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan stood up, and everyone came to their senses.
Zhang Xiaoshan's explanation left everyone even more shocked and doubtful.
Could the power of dragon's saliva be Zhang Xiaoshan's hidden trump card?
Pure Yang Finger, Dragon Slaying Saber Technique, and now there's another power: Dragon Saliva Power?
Thinking of the domineering power of the fire dragon just now, its divine might was like a prison, no less than the legendary supreme martial arts in the martial arts world.
In an instant, everyone's awe of Zhang Xiaoshan increased even more!
You should know that this person is an absolute martial arts prodigy, and most of his martial arts skills are self-created.
The Pure Yang Finger evolved from the Pure Yang Limitless Skill; the Dragon Slaying Saber Technique was formed from the essence of a hundred schools of saber techniques; and now this so-called Dragon Saliva Power is even more terrifying.
"You all prepare the food first, I'll go open the bluestone gate and release the poisonous gas inside!"
"After being sealed off for over two thousand years, even a place that gathers and retains vital energy would probably turn into poison gas by now. Boss Lei, prepare some incendiary bombs for me."
"Please wait a moment, young master!"
While Lei Laowu went to prepare the incendiary bombs, Zhang Xiaoshan had already reached the gate, with the Dragon Ball pressed against it, sensing the strange power contained within the gate.
As Zhang Xiaoshan activated the power of the Dragon Ball, it was as if something had broken. The crowd, who were waiting expectantly, suddenly felt a strong gust of wind and were almost knocked back before they could react.
Then, Zhang Xiaoshan put away the dragon pearl, placed his palms on the stone door, and gently pushed it open.
Long! Long! Long···
The ground trembled, rocks crumbled, and the shaking was like an earth dragon turning over. The door, weighing at least a hundred tons and sealed for a long time, was slowly pushed open by Zhang Xiaoshan.
Immediately, a foul, rotten stench wafted over.
The sudden attack of the poison gas caused everyone to scramble for cover.
The experts from the four tomb raiding factions frowned. It was indeed an extremely dangerous place. They could sense from the stench that there were definitely a large amount of poison inside.
You should know that this place has been sealed for two thousand years. Even if the poisonous insects devoured each other, they should have turned into dust by now.
Moreover, such a fishy and foul odor should be purified.
"Son!"
At this moment, Lei Laowu brought over a bag of things and handed them to Zhang Xiaoshan one by one.
After Zhang Xiaoshan pulled out the fuse, he threw in one after another, and everyone saw a bright flame inside that lasted for a long time.
Then, Zhang Xiaoshan took out the fish skin bag that he had not yet given away and released the five poisonous creatures inside.
"Go!"
These poisonous creatures, like fish drawn to the stench of the ancient tomb, were like fish entering the sea, swarming in as if attracted by the smell.
Zhang Xiaoshan wanted nothing more than to wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace, to fight poison with poison.
These five poisons have been 'cultivating' in the Chaotic Demon Pool for six years, and were already comparable to the King of Ten Thousand Poisons. Now they have evolved into the King of Ten Thousand Poisons.
