Star Trace Gate

Chapter 672 How could you treat your senior like this? !

Ren Ye and Master Chu stretched their necks together, staring with dull expressions at the elegant man lying in the jade coffin, and were greatly shocked.

If he was the ancestor of the Gutan Sect, he must have been dead for a long time, even several generations ago. However, after so many years, not even a trace of decay was left on his body.

The black clothes he wore were not stained with a speck of dust. His cheeks were rosy and shiny, his hair was jet-black, and even his nails and eyelashes looked as if they had been trimmed by someone. He had none of the characteristics of an ancient corpse.

The most important thing is that he is too young. He looks to be about 40 years old, and there is not even a wrinkle on his face. He should have been at the peak of his powers when he was alive. How could such a powerful person be the ancestor who founded the Gutan Sect?

This is not reasonable...

Although Ren Ye's body was extremely tired, he couldn't suppress his curiosity. He tried to emit a very faint perception, slowly wrapping the elegant male corpse.

He closed his eyes slightly and concentrated on investigating. He soon peeked into the belly of the ancient corpse and found that it was empty and filled with a misty black air. It was very gloomy and would make people feel cold just by sensing it...

This meant that the star core in his abdomen had turned into dust over the long years and had completely disappeared; at the same time, although his body was full of energy and blood, showed no signs of decay, and exuded vigorous vitality, this was an illusion.

There was an extremely bright green bead in the mouth of the ancient corpse, and the endless vitality was emitted from the green bead, which secretly nourished the corpse.

All these details show that he is completely dead...

Ren Ye finished his investigation, slowly withdrew his mind, and said softly: "Chu liar, I have a bold idea."

"How bold is that?!" Master Chu was also very curious, so he automatically ignored the bad nickname that Ren Ye gave him.

Ren Ye frowned slightly: "I think this senior...should not be from Gutan Sect."

"What do you mean?" Master Chu's eyes lit up.

"First of all, if this is the ancestor of the Gutan Sect, even if he was resurrected suddenly after a hundred years of death, he would not go outside to search for the magic weapons of the younger generation, and then bring them to Jietian Mansion to build such a luxurious jade coffin for himself, right?" Ren also turned his head to look at him: "And even if he was really resurrected, he should find a way to leave this place, there is no need to rush to die again, right?"

"You think pretty much the same as I do." Master Chu nodded slightly.

"My guess is that after the migration site collapsed, this mysterious senior mistakenly entered this place and was trapped, unable to get out. This is why the word '正' is engraved on the wall of the tomb passage outside. Because he was too lonely, he was always thinking about getting out and living by the day..." Ren Ye slowly said his guess: "But in the end, he couldn't find a way to survive, and he knew that he would definitely die here, so he collected the treasures here for himself, created this peerless jade coffin, and finally passed away here."

"That makes sense!" Master Chu agreed: "The vitality and greenness of the Tibetan Sea Cypress should be in his mouth. This thing is the reason why his body has not decayed."

"Well, he is like a cuckoo occupying a magpie's nest, forcing his way in, and occupying Jietian Mansion." Ren Ye walked around the jade coffin, rubbing his chin with his right hand and said, "But there is one thing I can't figure out."

"What you mean is... if he is not the ancestor of the Gutan Sect, then where did the ancestor who was originally buried here go, right?" Master Chu Dao was extremely smart.

"Yes." Ren also turned his head and looked around: "This ancestral land of Jietianfu is not bound by the laws of heaven. It is a secret realm without rank. Since the ancestor of the ancient sect is buried here, there must be a shocking mechanism that matches this status, the Thunder Killing Formation. If this senior can forcibly move the ancestor's grave... and bury him in a random pit outside, how powerful must he be?!"

"There are two more doubts that I haven't figured out." Master Chu blinked and said, "First, if he accidentally entered this place before the migration site collapsed, it would be impossible to hide it from the Gutan Sect disciples who stayed here. How could they watch him break into the ancestral land without stopping him?! But according to the historical materials I found, before the migration site collapsed, Gutan Sect had never been invaded by masters except for this crisis of extermination; second, if he accidentally entered this place after the migration site collapsed... that is also impossible."

"Why?"

Ren also asked.

"It's very simple. After the migration site collapsed, it took who knows how long for the rules of heaven to evolve this place into a secret realm. Before that, the void in the collapsed place was unstable and full of dangers. There were fatal cracks everywhere. Even if a sixth-grade master found this place, he would be in danger of death at any time." Master Chu looked at him and said, "Do you think this senior, even if he is a sixth-grade master, can sublimate to the extreme in this environment and forcibly blast open a ancestral land from countless cracks?"

"Are you sure this is the scene of the migration site after the collapse?" Ren looked at him curiously.

"Sure." Master Chu nodded.

"How do you know what this place is like?" Ren felt more and more that the origin of this fat guy must be extraordinary. Many of the things he knew were beyond his own level.

"I have traveled all over the world and have a wide range of knowledge. How can I compare with a playboy like you who is ignorant and bullies men and women by relying on your power?!" Master Chu said sarcastically.

"hehe."

Ren also sneered and ignored him. He just stared blankly at the ancient corpse, his mind full of question marks.

He knew that his speculation was far-fetched in some places. Just as Master Chu said, if he had come in before the collapse of the migration site and stayed here for so long, then even if the Gutan Sect was full of good-for-nothings, it would be impossible for them to not find him after the ancestor's grave was dug up. And if he had come in after the collapse of the migration site, then it would indeed be extremely difficult to forcibly break the taboo and open this place in an environment where the void was torn apart...

Who is this person? When did he come here, and why did he come here...

Ren Ye stared blankly at the elegant ancient corpse, and suddenly a strong intuition surged in his heart. If this person was alive, he might know the secret of the collapse of the migration site.

"brush!"

While he was thinking, he saw Fatty Chu take out four black ropes from his consciousness space, and quickly tied the ancient corpse's limbs and waist, and tied a very professional corpse-lifting buckle.

"What are you doing?!" Ren Ye asked.

“I just had an epiphany, and my mind was empty. I vaguely heard this senior talking to me…!” Master Chu said as he was busy, “He told me… that the two of you came here by fate, and the treasure in this jade coffin should also be brought back to the world to pass on his reputation!!”

"What the hell is this inheritance?" Ren Ye started talking about the quintessence of Chinese culture: "Do you know his name? You are just talking nonsense...!"

“I have decided that every time I use the treasure in the coffin, I will shout out, I am a disciple of the nameless old man in Jietianfu - do you dare to die?!” Only those who are thick-skinned can accomplish great things, and Master Chu is naturally the best of such people.

When he said these words, his inner conviction was extremely strong, and he firmly believed it in the depths of his soul. This is like a simple guest who firmly believes that every romantic encounter is not a transaction, but a silent and poignant encounter.

Ren Ye knew that he could not stop this unscrupulous man, and he did not have the energy to fight with him, so he could only observe the jade coffin while sneaking a peek to see what kind of treasure the other party had taken.

He had already thought it through. If the two of them could find the way out of this place together and they had to use their luck, then he would transform into a uniformed officer once again, charge the other party with theft, and confiscate at least half of the other party's illegal gains as a punishment... If the other party did not accept the punishment, then he would not lend his luck.

People, no matter what time it is, we must uphold justice!

The little bad king's sense of belief is also very strong...

On the open space to the right of the jade coffin, Master Chu Dao performed a simple sacrifice and then began to shamelessly strip off the clothes of the ancient corpse. His movements were extremely neat, and he also had special ropes and rulers to fix the body position of the ancient corpse, so that when he stripped the clothes, he would not damage the bones and flesh of the other party... to show respect.

In less than a quarter of an hour, he had looted the ancient corpse's unusually luxurious black robe, the strange stone ring on its hand, the bronze finger gloves, the short sword at its waist, and so on.

The unfortunate senior master could only lie naked on the ground, exposing his indecent organs, and his skin looked quite white.

After Master Chu took down more than a dozen rare treasures from the ancient corpse, he tried to sense them one by one, then bared his teeth and said, "... Each treasure has a spiritual charm, which is why it has not been covered in dust for a hundred years. Hehe, I will naturally refine you one by one and recognize you as my master again after the matter is over."

"There is also this Emerald Pearl that contains vitality. This thing cannot be measured by money. Before we leave, I will make a new coffin for this senior and then take it out. Otherwise, the senior's body may shrink and dissipate in an instant... This is a bit disrespectful and unfair to him...!"

He spoke politely, like a man of noble character.

"Is it fair if you strip your senior like a chicken?!" Ren also criticized from the moral high ground.

"These are all external possessions. Giving them to me will not diminish your greatness." Master Chu stood up and said, "Come, let me take another look at this jade coffin. This thing is too big. It's not easy to hold before it's refined...!"

Ren Ye was a little confused when he heard this: "Easy to take?! You're going to help someone carry the coffin? No, this... is this thing auspicious?"

"I told you, I want to build a low-key and restrained coffin for you." Master Chu Dao said while looking for the grooves for the jade coffin to be inlaid, "This coffin is full of rare treasures. I will strip them one by one and then find a sect with a strong foundation to secretly observe whether their ancestors will die recently. If someone is about to die... I will sell the jade coffin to them, and after their ancestors are buried, we will find a chance to take it back. This way, we can make full use of it and keep the inheritance alive!"

"...!"

After listening to this, Ren Ye was extremely shocked: "You really are a business genius!"

“Do what you love!”

After Master Chu replied in a smooth voice, he pouted and spat into his palm, and said through gritted teeth: "Come on, make way, let me try to move this coffin!"

"...!"

Ren also walked silently to the side of Senior White Stripe Chicken, raised his hand and called out a tattered robe, carefully covered the senior, and then whispered: "... cremate him next time. Cremation is better, more civilized, and you don't have to wear pants."

"Squeak, squeak...!"

Master Chu Dao was standing on the left side of the jade coffin. When he tried to push it with his arms, he felt a grinding sound from his teeth.

The tail of the jade coffin rotated counterclockwise, and its hard corner accidentally touched a slightly raised stone slab, which was hidden in the vines and was not discovered by Master Chu.

With a crisp sound, the ground in Jietian Mansion suddenly shook violently, and endless dust fell from the cliff.

"Fuck!"

Ren Ye was so frightened that he suddenly jumped up and ran into the tomb passage, shouting: "What did you move?!"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"

Master Chu Dao was not panicked at all. He just listened quietly with his ears trembling. After two breaths, he said with certainty: "It is a mechanism, but it is not inside the Jietian Mansion. The sound is at the door!"

"you sure!"
