However, before they entered the third tomb, Professor Xu had already reached a conclusion after analyzing the stone tablet outside. A rather important conclusion was that the owner of the tomb was not a prince or any other royal descendants, but rather the Northern Wei's monarch, Tuoba.

Therefore, the question that puzzled the Professor Xu came along with it. In the strict hierarchy of the feudal dynasty, why was it that what was engraved on the tomb coffin after the death of the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty was not a True Dragon, but rather a creature similar to the 'Viper'?

The tomb they entered was not the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty's tomb, but the tomb of a prince or a member of the royal family during the Northern Wei period. Otherwise, why would the pattern engraved on this Gold Coffin be not a real dragon, but a snake?

But if the record on the stone tablet was really wrong, then regardless of whether it was the 'accompany coffin' in the front palace or the 'Nine Elephants Heaven Sealing Diagram' and the 'Triple Coffin K' in the main palace, as well as the specifications of the 'Stone City' and 'Heaven Rating Stage' that they had just walked on, it would not even reach the level of a prince or a descendant of the imperial clan.

Professor Xu was confused for a moment.

Seeing Professor Xu's doubtful look, Fang Zishu immediately explained.

According to Fang Zishu, he had once seen a strange rumor about the Northern Wei period in the clan's library.

Most of the content said that during the period of Da He, a heavy rainstorm fell for three months in succession on the borders of the Northern Wei, causing the citizens of the three counties of East China Sea to suffer from the calamity of water. Most of the content meant that during the period of Da He, a heavy rainstorm fell on the borders of the Northern Wei, causing the citizens of the three counties of East China to suffer from the calamity of water.

As soon as the creature appeared, massive waves surged out across the lands of East China.

In front of countless people, a huge black snake with two whiskers and four horns had actually stirred up a thousand strong wave of water, surging back and forth in the huge water pillar. Its mouth even made a bellow that sounded like the bellow of a cow, and then this huge black snake unexpectedly rode the wind and broke the waves, charging towards the sky.

At that time, the crowd was shocked by the scene before them. They all thought that Changchun Zi and his men had disturbed the divine dragon that was resting in the East China Sea. That was how the divine dragon got angry and caused a sudden rain to bring a flood.

"And then?" Da Zeng revealed a face full of curiosity.

"Later on, Changchun Zi and the rest were secretly summoned by the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty. When the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty found out about the Serpent, he used their abilities to capture the Serpent and then had many of the famous alchemists outside the palace use the Serpent's elixir to make pills that would help him live forever."

"Changchun Zi and the others obeyed and left. They then mysteriously disappeared into the East Sea and disappeared without a trace." After Fang Zishu finished speaking, he pointed to the Gold Coffin K in front of him and said, "If the wild historical records that I saw back then were true, it would not be hard to guess why the inscription on the coffin of Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty was not a True Dragon, but instead a malevolent 'Viper'."

Professor Xu nodded his head, and said: "Although what Master Fang said was only a rumor, rumors would often be passed down under certain 'true affairs', so Master Fang's deduction is currently the most reasonable speculation."

"Professor Xu, let's not bother about these things anymore right? Now that the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty's coffin is right in front of us, why don't we open it to take a peek at the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty's real appearance, and help the Master Fang take a look at whether the 'Xun' shaped 'Octagon Prismatic Amber he is looking for is placed in the Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty's tomb as a funeral object? "

Pang Dun's suggestion received strong support from the Qi Sanbiaozi.

From his point of view, only when everyone had their full attention on the 'Monarch of the Northern Wei Dynasty' in the coffin, would he have the chance to take the piece of gold from the Gold Coffin s and hide. If not, under everyone's eyes, it would not be easy for him to pry the piece of gold from the Gold Coffin s.

Professor Xu also agreed to Pang Dun's suggestion. He planned to temporarily put aside the patterns engraved on the Gold Coffin K and first open the Gold Coffin K in front of him. After going through the Professor Xu's tests, he discovered that the top of this Gold Coffin K and the main body of the coffin seemed to have used a special adhesive. If they were to push the coffin with their hands, it was likely that they would not even be able to open the closed door of this Gold Coffin K.

But Professor Xu also had his own way of doing this. From what he saw, the adhesive on the Gold Coffin s might be able to make the top of the coffin join closely with the main body, but above the high temperature, the adhesive would separate. At that time, they could open the closed Gold Coffin s.

However, the biggest problem now was the fire search.

In this pitch-black Stone City, 99% of everything was made of black stone. Looking around, it was possible that only the rafters of the houses and the turrets on the roofs and corners of the houses were made of wood. That was why it was extremely important for them to create a huge fire that could burn Gold Coffin under such circumstances.

Unless they used a 'detonator' to forcefully blow up this Gold Coffin in front of them, they would not be able to open it for a short period of time!

But when Qi Sanbiaozi said this, he was rejected by both Professor Xu and Fang Zishu.

The Gold Coffin in front of him … Regardless of whether it was the sides of the abdomen, the roof, or the bottom of the coffin, they were all constructed in an extremely beautiful manner.

Such a thing could not be considered a coffin, but rather, a piece of cultural relic. It was an extremely ornamental cultural relic, and in the face of such an ornamental object, the Professor Xu would definitely not let it break into pieces unless it was absolutely necessary.

In comparison, Fang Zishu's reason for rejection was much simpler.

To be honest, Fang Zishu did not care about the value and beautiful appearance of this [Gold Coffin s]. What he cared about was the things inside.

To be more accurate, he cared about the 'selfin-shaped' Octagon Prismatic Amber 'inside.

Therefore, even though he was not sure if the 'Xun' shaped Octagon Prismatic Amber was a funeral object or if it was hidden within the Gold Coffin, Fang Zishu did not want to forcefully blow up the coffin.

If the amount of explosives used was too much, even if the Gold Coffin was successfully destroyed, the huge explosive power would definitely shatter the 'Xun' shaped 'Octagon Prismatic Amber' that was hidden in. At that time, wouldn't he be so regretful that he wouldn't even have a place to cry?

Looking at the beautiful Gold Coffin s in front of them, everyone had no idea what to do.

At this moment, the sound of muffled and heavy footsteps suddenly sounded in everyone's ears. This sudden footstep was like an unceasingly churning thunder in the sky, and once it appeared, it successfully attracted the gazes of everyone …
