Chapter 225.1
Actually, I think theres no need to worry!
Eight Master Hus voice echoed in the hollow tunnel.
As the saying goes, The Great Dao has fifty, but Heavens operation has forty-nine. Everything under the heavens leaves a sliver of hope for survival, and not even the heavens themselves are an exception! Our journey is essentially seeking life in the face of death, how could it be without danger?
(TLN: The Great Dao is perfect, but what the Heavens manifest is always slightly imperfect (49, not 50))
Eight Master Hu (Hu Baye) is right. Just like Wu Xie and I, weve been through many battles, and which one wasnt going from the water to the fire? Weve entered dangerous tombs too many times to count. There were three times I thought I wouldnt make it back, but didnt I still survive?
So, Ni Pusa, dont scare yourself! Divinations can be inaccurate sometimes! he said with a laugh.
Really inaccurate? The Ni Pusa touched the pus-filled sore under his face and gave a bitter smile.
Every time he revealed the secrets of fate, he would feel the will of the heavens, and then he would be punished by the gods.
The sores on his face were a result of revealing too much of the heavenly secrets.
Just now, while he was divining, he felt a will as if it came from the heavens.
This heavenly will was more ferocious than any he had felt before, causing all the hairs on his body to stand on end and more toxins to accumulate on his face, making the sores bleed even more.New novel chapters are published on
This indicated that their journey was going against the will of heaven!
How could the heavens tolerate them?
At that moment, Wu Xie approached the Ni Pusa and asked quietly, You just said weve caught the attention of a great terror What is this great terror? Is it the filthy thing below?
The Ni Pusa glanced at him and said, If only it were the filthy thing below!
Ah? If its not the filthy thing below, what could it be? Could it be something from above? Wu Xie was somewhat panicked.
The will of heaven is elusive and unpredictable! If it wants us to live, we live. If it wants us to die, we will surely die! Alas
That scary? Wu Xie shrank his neck.
At this time, Eight Master Hu spoke up again, Ni Pusa, dont scare yourself! Even if we really encounter that thing, I can lead you all to safety!
His tone was filled with confidence.
Thats right! Our Eight Master Hu here is the worlds number one Feng Shui master. Finding dragon veins and identifying Feng Shui spots is as easy for him as eating and drinking. How could this little cave trap us? Wang Pangzi flattered.
Eight Master Hu was very pleased with the compliment and laughed, Haha, you flatter me too much! Ive just studied Feng Shui a bit more, but compared to the professionals who specialize in tomb raiding like you, I still have a long way to go! Ill have to rely on you two for this tomb exploration!
After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, everyone was still safe and sound.
Wang Pangzi sneaked to the back and nudged the Ni Pusa with his elbow, whispering, See, we havent found anything yet! Your divination isnt accurate!
The Ni Pusa exhaled deeply: I hope so!
He felt that the presence had not gone far and was constantly watching them, ready to claim their lives at any moment.
Unknowingly, they had been descending for six hours, and everyone was exhausted both physically and mentally.
Massaging his sore thighs, Wang Pangzi wailed, Eight Master, weve been walking for half a day. How much further is the tomb?
Were close!
Eight Master Hu checked the compass and said, According to the trigrams shown, we are now at the position of the Red Dragons torso within the Nine Dragons Encircling the Mountain pattern! Just a bit further and well be there!
How much longer will that take? Wang Pangzi asked again.
About another six hours!
Eight Master Hu turned back and saw that everyone was tired, so he said, Lets rest here for an hour, have some food, and then continue downward!
Alright, Eight Master!
So, everyone stopped to take a break.
After taking a sip of water, Wu Xies ears twitched, and he immediately lay on the ground: Do you hear that? Is there some noise?
Theres no noise, did you hear wrong?
I couldnt have heard wrong
Just then, everyone felt the ground shaking, followed by a rumbling sound from afar.
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a huge boulder rolling towards them.
