My Master Knows It All

1223: 305 Chapter_4 1223: 305 Chapter_4 Gradually, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

This place…

Feels so close to the Five Sounds Sect?

In that case, I might as well start by excavating Old Man Wu Shuang’s living tomb.

After all, there’s still time before the Sect Tribulation at Five Sounds Sect arrives, and I’m just going to dig up a living tomb, not off to battle someone else.

After digging, I can just return.

Cao Zhen did not inform anyone else; he alone, following the guide of a crude compass in his hand, left the Five Sounds Sect and flew towards the direction the compass indicated.

As he traveled, he found himself drifting to more secluded areas.

Three days later, he arrived at the back of a village.

This was a very ordinary village, with about a hundred households, most of them surnamed Wang.

Cao Zhen observed and found nothing particularly noticeable about the village.

He continued following the direction indicated by the compass, slowly walking into an area of graves.

This was evidently the village’s graveyard.

There were graves scattered all around, some covered with yellow paper, some without tombstones, and some surrounded by wild grass, clearly long neglected, perhaps because their descendants were no longer around.

Cao Zhen looked at the compass in his hands, then glanced around, a puzzled expression appearing on his face.

According to his calculations, Old Man Wu Shuang’s living tomb should be right here.

But this place clearly contained only ordinary villagers’ graves.

Doubtful, Cao Zhen recalculated and even switched to another artifact to continue his calculations.

Still, the results were the same, indicating that Old Man Wu Shuang’s living tomb was right here.

“I even recalculated with a different artifact and got the same result.

My calculations should not be wrong.

Could it be, this really is Old Man Wu Shuang’s living tomb?”

Cao Zhen squatted in front of a tomb that looked long abandoned, surrounded by wild grass, without any yellow paper on the tombstone, looking like it hadn’t been cared for in decades.

He knelt down and carefully felt it, eventually detecting a faint trace of life mixed with spiritual energy emanating from under this tomb.

If not for his high cultivation base, and if he weren’t close enough, he wouldn’t have been able to sense this trace of spiritual energy at all.

Ordinary graves wouldn’t have spiritual energy, let alone a hint of vitality.

Under these circumstances, there was only one possibility, this was the living tomb of a sleeping master!

Excitement appeared on Cao Zhen’s face as he muttered to himself: “So my calculations weren’t wrong, this is indeed Old Man Wu Shuang’s living tomb!

The Old Man Wu Shuang was clever enough to build his living tomb here.

Who would bother with such a common, abandoned graveyard?

Even if a cultivator came here, unless they exactly reached the front of this living tomb and had a cultivation base similar to mine, they wouldn’t discover the special nature of this tomb.

The chances are simply too low.

Under normal circumstances, Old Man Wu Shuang’s living tomb wouldn’t be discovered, allowing him to safely pass through the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth.

What a pity, what a pity, how could you ever expect that our Cao family had an ancestor who was a tomb robber, and your beloved disciple even offended me.

Your reputation was so loud, I was truly afraid you’d come out and find trouble with our Hundred Peaks Sect, so I had to dig up your living tomb first.

With your reputation, a loose cultivator who could slaughter entire households or sects, your cultivation base must not be low, probably above the Earth Immortal Realm and reached the Immortality Regainment Realm, so there should be some good accompanying treasures in your living tomb.

Anyway, once I dig you up, you’re going to die anyway, so I might as well do a good deed through to the end and take out all those treasures buried with you as well.

Speaking of which, you sleepers should have placed all your treasures here.”

While speaking, Cao Zhen placed his hand on the tombstone, his mana suddenly bursting forth, powerful forces emitting, violently impacting the tombstone.

Instantaneously, the entire tombstone exploded.

This area was originally a graveyard, located in a remote area and now it was night.

It was just a small village graveyard, with no gravekeepers around.

Even if an explosion occurred, making noise, no one would notice anything here.

After the tombstone exploded, a downward passage was revealed, the sides of which were engraved with complex and obscure runes.

“Was a formation set up to prevent accidental exposure of the living tomb?”

Cao Zhen looked at the formation in front of him, not even bothering to break it.

Above his head, a Heretical Golden Core appeared, and behind him, Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills also displayed, his mana gushing forth towards the formations on the sides of the steps.

He was at the limit of the Golden Core Stage, and these formations, at most during the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, only reached the limit of the Golden Core Period; this formation’s power didn’t even reach that limit.

After all, without someone to control them during the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, to reach the limit of the Golden Core Period, who knows how many resources it would take!

With Cao Zhen’s full power in play, his vast mana surged down.

Immediately, silver light screens radiated up from the sides of the steps, strikingly conspicuous in the darkness, but the next moment, with Cao Zhen’s unparalleled power, the light screens seemed to be torn apart by a mana scissors, forcibly shattered.
