Night, the sky is full of stars, dim and without light. Only a round moon, bright and clear. But it was constantly covered by the drifting dark clouds, sometimes hidden and sometimes visible, sprinkling down the faint moonlight.

  The ground, rows of iron trees stood upright. Like a row of wolf fangs, they rose from the earth. The surroundings of Chu Feng were quiet, not even a hint of wind blew, but this special silence made the sound in the cave even more eerie.

  "Wipe it off, are you sure you want me to go down here? Whats that thing screaming, could it be a ghost?"

  Chu Feng felt a bit uneasy, it was the first time he heard such a mournful voice, and it came from the bottomless deep pit, it was like a ghost from hell, telling its grievances, very heart-piercing.

  "What are you afraid of? Dont forget that youre a Boundary Spirit Master, destined to deal with ghostly creatures. Otherwise, how can you help me absorb their essence?" Eggie scolded.

  "Unbelievable, so the Boundary Spirit Master is a natural-born tomb raider?" Chu Feng was speechless.

  "Otherwise, what do you think? The boundary spirit master and the boundary spirit communicator can capture things that ordinary people cannot capture. Moreover, the tombs of strong martial artists contain a large number of treasures, which is simply the best shortcut for martial arts."

  "Xiu Wu is a path that is also so difficult, only fools would not take this shortcut." Dan Dan said with disdain.

  "If its as you say, then could the thing howling below really be a ghost?"

  Chu Fengs heart tightened, as he thought that demons and monsters were just legends. However, as his horizons broadened, he discovered that there were indeed demonic beasts and strange creatures in the world. If ones martial arts practice was not proper, they could also go berserk and slaughter people, being viewed as a demon. If this reasoning was correct, then it was possible that so-called ghosts really did exist.

  "Whats so scary about ghosts? Havent you seen them before?" DanDan said.

  "When have I ever seen a ghost?" Chu Feng thought carefully, but he couldnt recall ever seeing what was known as a ghost.

  "At first in the mausoleum of ten thousand bones, that old man you saw, wasnt it him?" Egg reminded.

  "What? That guy is a ghost?! How is that possible, hes so powerful!"

  Chu Feng was greatly shocked, for the old man he saw that night left a deep impression on him. Although he did not emit any aura, Chu Feng still felt his power, which was so strong that it could not be described. So he never thought that the old man would be a ghost.

  "When ones martial arts skills reach a certain level, their spirit will become very powerful. After death, the spirit does not disappear and will wander around, which is what you call a ghost."

  However, the spiritual power of the boundary spirit master is extremely strong. After death, the spiritual power and divine consciousness merge into one body, which can control the movements of the divine consciousness, continuing to survive in another form.

  "Although not as powerful as when he was alive, he still has a heaven-defying method. The old man you saw that day is such a strong person, and your spiritual power was also sealed, and it was him who helped you to awaken it."

  Egg Egg was talking about 1510, on that day Chu Feng fainted but Egg didnt so she saw the old man and what he did to Chu Feng.

  After hearing her words, Chu Feng also suddenly realized that he had possessed spiritual power all along, but due to special reasons, it had not been triggered. This meant that his spiritual power was also innate.

  "Wherever there is such a strong spiritual energy, there is usually an ancient tomb underground. However, the countless white bones in that mausoleum, combined with the old mans unspoken secrets, make it unlikely to be a simple ancient tomb. Its likely to be a malignant tomb."

  "What is a fierce burial?" Chu Feng was puzzled, but he could also hear the danger in it.

  "You fool, you really dont understand anything. Alright, for the sake of making you a qualified Jie Ling Master, Ill tell you about it, so you wont embarrass yourself in the future."

  "Remember, the ordinary persons burial ground is called a tomb. Although tombs may also have some mechanisms and hidden treasures, they can still be deciphered by ordinary people. Only low-level boundary spirit masters would bother to snoop around tombs. The grave of Old Man Yu Kong is just that - a tomb."

  "While those tombs with spiritual awareness are ancient burials, ancient burial doesnt refer to how long theyve been buried, but rather a term used to measure the level of the tomb. Ancient burials are very dangerous, with mechanisms and traps that ordinary people cant sense, and even eerie situations. Only boundary spirit masters can sense and break through them, which is why ancient burials are where boundary spirit masters show their worth."

  "As for the burial, its not just a simple repair of Wus tomb, but possibly a great evil object. What this thing is, cannot be determined, it may be human or beast, and it may be alive or dead."

  "Most of them are powerful to a certain extent, and even after death, they will continue to wreak havoc on the world, or may not have died at all. These monsters were sealed away in some place, making this graveyard very perilous. Entering it often means no return, and theres even a possibility of unleashing a monstrous evil that will bring calamity to the world."

  "So this cemetery is called a malignant burial ground, and unless its someone with the ability to communicate with heaven like a boundary spirit master, basically no one dares to open it, or else it will brew into a great disaster."

  "Its no wonder, no wonder that Master Zhuge would be interested in the Mausoleum of Ten Thousand Bones." Chu Feng suddenly realized and finally understood that the value of a Boundary Spirit Master lay within the tombs.

  "That mausoleum of ten thousand bones is very formidable, most of them are ferocious tombs. The danger is indeed great, but it must contain a huge treasure. Lets not talk about other things, if I can absorb the old mans original body, my strength will definitely increase greatly. Unfortunately, you are still far from being able to touch that mausoleum now, otherwise, even ten thousand of you would not be enough to die."

  However, the old man seemed to have something that needed your help, so he left you with that map. But there is a hidden mechanism in that map, and you wont be able to unlock the ancient tomb until you reach a certain level of power.

  "But if one day you open that mausoleum and enter it, the old man will certainly lend you a helping hand, at least give you some benefits. Of course, as long as there are benefits, you must pay a certain price."

  "And the tomb is too perilous for you, even with a map in hand, it cannot be opened. So for now, dont think about that tomb, instead, explore this ancient tomb thoroughly."

  Dandans eyes sparkled with excitement as she spoke, for in the intact ancient tombs, most of them had the remains of powerful warriors, and that strong origin was what she yearned for the most.

  "Well, since were all here, we cant just leave empty-handed!"

  Chu Feng nodded and didnt jump down immediately. When he jumped into the black hole, he quickly deployed his Hundred Transformations Bow and condensed two daggers in his hands, inserting them into the rocky walls of the black hole to slowly make his way downwards.

  At first, Chu Fengs speed was slow, but soon he became proficient in this action and began to dive rapidly. The deeper he dived, the clearer the womans crying voice became, making even the usually fearless Chu Feng feel a chill run down his spine.

  "Dont be afraid, this is probably just a wandering soul. It may have been a master when it was alive, but after death, its not your opponent. Your boundary technique can restrain it." Egg seemed to sense Chu Fengs inner panic and reminded him solemnly.

  "En." Chu Feng nodded and calmed his mind, continuing to dive down until he finally reached the bottom with both feet steady.

  This was a huge cave, although it was pitch black, but you could feel its vastness. Chu Feng took out the Boundary Spirit Disk, and a strand of spiritual power poured into it. Suddenly, the light burst forth, and the dark cave was illuminated as if by lanterns.

  "This is!!!" However, after his vision cleared up, Chu Fengs face changed drastically, and he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
