“Tian Mu!”
A purple glow flashed in Lu Feng’s eyes, and a 360-degree view instantly flooded his mind. The overwhelming amount of information caused his thoughts to become jumbled.
It took a few minutes for Lu Feng to adjust.
Then he tried to control Tian Mu’s vision, so that it wouldn’t capture everything around him every time it was activated. He aimed for complete control.
Two hours later, Lu Feng was able to use Tian Mu proficiently.
“Lu Feng.”
“En?”
Seeing Xue Li Yang suddenly appear in front of him, Lu Feng’s eyes widened. In his eyes, Xue Li Yang’s clothes seemed to disappear.
All he saw was a graceful nude body.
This Tian Mu.
Amazing!
“Lu Feng, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
Lu Feng chuckled and gazed at Xue Li Yang.
As his focus intensified, her outer appearance vanished, and her internal organs, bones, blood vessels, and meridians rapidly became clear.
Lu Feng immediately deactivated Tian Mu and said, “Did you need something?”
“Can’t I just come and see you?”
“Of course not.”
Xue Li Yang sat down beside Lu Feng and said, “How did you find this ancient tomb?”
“I know a little about Tian Xing Feng Shui.”
“You do?”
“I can only dabble in it.”
Xue Li Yang shook her head, “Unfortunately, their coffins have been opened. Besides their clothes and head ornaments, there are no other burial objects.”
“Perhaps there were never any.”
Treasures like the Flame Pearl are infinitely more valuable than gold and silver.
“It’s not like the style of the Western Regions.”
“There are exceptions to every rule.”
“It’s strange that the person who opened the coffins didn’t take those ornaments.”
Xue Li Yang stared intently at Lu Feng while she spoke.
She suddenly noticed that Lu Feng’s complexion was rosy and his skin smooth and delicate, unlike someone who had been in the desert for over ten days.
It was unlike their dry skin and chapped lips.
“It is strange.” Lu Feng said.
The more Xue Li Yang looked, the stranger it seemed.
“There’s one more thing.”
“What is it?”
“An Li Man doesn’t want to continue onward. We can’t persuade him. Can you try to talk to him?” Xue Li Yang asked.
“Fine.”
Lu Feng agreed and found An Li Man, “An Li Man, what if we return once we reach the place where even the saxaul trees don’t grow?”
“You said it.”
“Yes.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
Xue Li Yang, “…”
They had spent the entire afternoon talking themselves hoarse, but An Li Man wouldn’t budge. All it took was Lu Feng mentioning the saxaul tree?
“What’s saxaul tree?” Wang Pang Zi asked in confusion.
“The grass you’ve all seen these past few days.”
“Dig down three to four meters from its roots and you’ll find damp sand and salt water. With a simple solar evaporation method, you can get a small amount of fresh water, barely enough to sustain life.”
“If there’s no saxaul tree, it means there’s no water for over ten meters underground.”
Everyone understood immediately.
If they reached that point, it would be a dead end.
Everyone was exhausted from their continuous journey, so they rested for a few days. After regaining their strength, they set out once more.
Over those days, Lu Feng had mastered the Flowing Light Body Technique and the first level of the Nine-Layered Thunder Blade. His full-power speed and strength had reached a new level.
He had also become proficient with Tian Mu.
When Lu Feng focused his gaze entirely on a specific spot, his vision could pierce through a meter of rock and see what was twenty meters beneath the yellow sand!
They traveled for another day.
An Li Man chose a place for everyone to rest.
Lu Feng used Tian Mu to observe the sand dunes and saw a stone tomb.
The stone tomb had been blown open, filled with sand. All the burial objects were gone, and the corpse inside the coffin was damaged.
“Lu Feng, what are you looking at?”
Xue Li Yang stood beside him.
Lu Feng pointed to a spot five meters ahead, “There’s a tomb below.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Li Yang took out her notebook and looked through it. “According to the information in my notebook, we should be near the stone tomb.”
Thinking of this, Xue Li Yang quickly put away her notebook and shouted to Professor Chen and the others to come over.
“Xue Li, what’s wrong?” Professor Chen asked, puzzled.
“There’s a tomb here. It might be the stone tomb mentioned in the notebook.”
Looking at the sand dune, Professor Chen felt incredulous. No matter how he looked, he couldn’t see anything special, “Are you sure there’s a tomb?”
“Lu Feng said so.”
Whoosh!
Everyone’s gaze fell on Lu Feng.
How could he be certain there was a tomb beneath an ordinary sand dune?
Hu Ba Yi looked up at the sky and then around, but Tian Xing Feng Shui was completely useless in this situation.
“Lu Feng, is there really a tomb below?” Wang Pang Zi asked.
“Yes.” Lu Feng nodded.
“What are we waiting for? Dig!”
Wang Pang Zi grabbed his shovel and started digging.
Chu Jian was excited and joined in.
“Lu Feng, how did you know there was a tomb? If there isn’t, wouldn’t we have wasted our time?” Hao Ai Guo asked.
Suddenly!
Pang Zi felt his feet give way, and the surrounding sand engulfed him, pulling him down. Terrified, he scrambled to the side, “Damn it! Quicksand!”
At the same time.
Chu Jian was also swallowed by the sand, “Help me!”
Hu Ba Yi was startled and squatted on the edge, handing his work shovel to Wang Pang Zi, “Pang Zi, grab it!”
Hao Ai Guo, Xue Li Yang, and Professor Chen rushed forward to pull them back up.
“Close call.”
Wang Pang Zi lay on the ground, still shaken.
“Lu Feng, didn’t you say there was a tomb? This is clearly quicksand. Are you trying to get us killed?” Hao Ai Guo yelled angrily.
“Then you’re quite impressive, easily saving people from quicksand.” Lu Feng retorted sarcastically.
“You’re still being sarcastic!”
“No, this isn’t quicksand!” Xue Li Yang suddenly said loudly, “Real quicksand is terrifying. It’s not this simple.”
“Not quicksand?”
“Everyone dig around it.”
They looked at each other and started digging cautiously. They found that this so-called quicksand was just a shallow pit less than half a meter deep.
They dug along the edge of the pit and soon discovered a massive stone ceiling.
There was a blown-open hole on the side of the stone ceiling, and sand continuously flowed into it.
“Is this a stone tomb?”
“There really is a tomb!”
“How did he know?”
“…”
Everyone gasped in disbelief and stared at Lu Feng.
