Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1369 Starry Chessboard

As the door opened, the entire ground seemed to tremble continuously.

Behind the gate, some eerie light emanated, seemingly orange in color, accompanied by a strange aura.

Before long, the door was fully opened, and behind it were some more steps!

"Go in!" Although they didn't know what was inside, Ye Qing and the others had no choice but to say it.

Without hesitation, Wang Zhe immediately carried Ye Qing on his back. Ye Qing put a pill into his mouth and began to recover his energy.

As soon as Ye Qing entered the platform, his brows furrowed deeply.

He sensed a strange power suppressing his mental strength.

The small tower instantly entered Ye Qing's body.

"My mental power is being suppressed!" Ye Qing said.

“That’s normal!” the big yellow dog said. “In this universe, top tomb raiding teams will try their best to be equipped with a mentalist.”

"To prevent their graves from being robbed, the burial grounds of Venerables and above will set up some methods to suppress spiritualists," the big yellow dog said. "Otherwise, the spiritualist's detection ability, their ability to detect graves, can ensure their safety. For example, the person with the soul characteristics we met in the Chaotic Star Sea before, he also set up an array."

"It's just a matter of strength or weakness," the big yellow dog said.

Ye Qing's expression shifted. Upon reflection, it seemed to be true, including when he entered the underground palace in the Spirit Realm!

“Psychic mastery, although it’s not a unique trait, is still… below the same level, psychic masters are just too abnormal!” Wang Xue said.

Within the range of his mental power, he could kill anyone silently.

This is a very scary thing.

In terms of assassination ability, it is far more terrifying than the ability to hide.

The ability of stealth is to hide.

But when it comes to taking action, he always has to show himself.

However, mental power is different; the stronger the mental power master, the wider the range they can cover.

To let a person die silently.

This ability is too abnormal.

The only pity is that the stronger a mentalist becomes, the more abnormal their mental state becomes. Although it is a rare trait, almost no mentalist can reach the realm of a saint.

Even spiritual masters at the Venerable level are rare.

Most mentalists become more insane the stronger they are.

Including the mentalist beside Fang Chen, who is currently only at the peak of the Domain Lord level, but he has already gone somewhat insane.

A peak-level domain lord mentalist is actually a very dangerous existence.

He may not be particularly strong in direct combat, but... when it comes to the level of danger among peak domain lords, those with mental power characteristics are undoubtedly among the most dangerous.

Ye Qing was constantly worried that if they were discovered by that mentalist, most of them could die instantly with a single thought!

This tomb can suppress spiritual power. Although it curbs one of Ye Qing's characteristics, it is still a good thing overall.

"How much do you feel suppressed? What is the range of your detection?" the big yellow dog asked.

Ye Qing shook his head and said, "I cannot use my mental powers!"

"Wow!" The big yellow dog's expression shifted. "This tomb is even more bizarre than I imagined. I wonder which bastard got it!"

As they talked, they descended the stairs behind the gate. The stairs were well-preserved, and there were murals on the walls, but they were rapidly oxidizing as oxygen entered.

None of them had time to watch!

Before long, they reached the bottom of the stairs, crawled through an arched doorway, and found themselves on a platform in front of them, where the space opened up!

"This is a damn tomb?" Chen Xuan stared in horror at what lay ahead.

The platform in front of us is enormous, with an extremely flat and clean surface. Along the edge of the platform are countless stone sculptures, the tops of which emit a faint orange glow that illuminates the surroundings. At the end of the platform lies a boundless city!

Yes, a city!

Ye Qing found it hard to believe that this place was actually a tomb.

"It seems this emperor was extremely power-hungry. Even after death, he wanted to be the embodiment of power!" the big yellow dog said. "He's already reached the Emperor level, and he still has such thoughts. How interesting!"

Ye Qing nodded.

"They should be here soon; we need to get into the city first," Ye Qing said.

Wang Xue nodded, and he stepped into the area in front of him.

The moment he stepped in, the stone beneath Wang Xue's feet suddenly collapsed.

At the same time, a violent energy rose up from beneath the stone.

not good!

Wang Xue was shocked.

Unable to fly within the Taixi Ancient Mine, she plummeted downwards.

"Snapped!"

Just then, Ling Yingxue reacted quickly, grabbing her hand and pulling her upwards!

"boom!"

The next instant, towering flames shot out from below!

The blazing firelight seemed to evaporate everything around it.

"Grass!"

The big yellow dog cursed, opened its mouth, and spat out another ball of light, enveloping everyone in it.

Wait until the firelight dies down!

The big yellow dog then said, "Earth's core fire! And its intensity is already comparable to that of a Venerable!"

Wang Xue exclaimed in horror, "What do we do now?"

At the same time, the stone slab that had fallen down rose up from below!

"There must be some kind of formation down here!" Chen Xuan analyzed. "If we take one wrong step, we could be burned to ashes by this fire!"

"What should we do?" Yuan Yi asked, swallowing hard.

"This!" Wang Xue gasped for breath, looking at the huge squares in front of her. She pondered and said, "This... might be a Star Chessboard!"

"A star-studded chessboard?" Ye Qing asked.

"Yes!" Wang Xue nodded. "You didn't know?"
