[Shadow Traversal] allows you to ignore physical collisions. In this state, you can freely pass through walls, rocks, and steel.
However, the walls of this Star Tomb are special and not made of ordinary rock.
Even the Divine Effect of Shadow Vision, which comes with [Shadow Traversal], cannot see the things inside the Star Tomb.
Just as everyone was at a loss, Dwarf King Sorreville Copper Furnace spoke up, "Perhaps I know how to open the Star Tomb."
The three people beside him turned to look at him, curiously asking, "You know?"
Sorreville Copper Furnace exhaled and nodded, "The Copper Furnace Kingdom has a secret known only to the king, left by my grandfather, Emperor Sorondal, which should be about this Star Tomb."
Lu Heng, upon hearing this, knew that bringing the leaders of the two races was the right decision.
Actually, it was not a spur-of-the-moment idea for Lu Heng to get the Sea Demon High Priestess and the Dwarf King here; it was a rumor he had heard in his memory.
In a previous life, the Sea Demon High Priestess and the Dwarf King had opened the Star Tomb deep in the Sea of Chaos together.
Lu Heng did not know the method to open the Star Tomb, but he knew these two could open it, so he brought them over.
Sure enough, Sona could control the sea to help traverse the Sea of Chaos.
And Sorreville Copper Furnace knew how to open the Star Tomb’s door.
The others stepped back, allowing Sorreville Copper Furnace to open the door.
Sorreville Copper Furnace stood in front of the Star Tomb’s door, took up the Copper Hammer Pendant hanging from his chest, and began chanting ancient spells.
A Flame Rune appeared, covering the door of the Star Tomb.
The four watched as the Flame Rune burned fiercely on the door, waiting for the door to change.
Seconds and minutes ticked by.
After three whole minutes, the flames began to slowly extinguish, and the Star Tomb’s door trembled and slowly opened to both sides.
The Star Tomb door opened, revealing a large hall filled with skeletons.
At a glance, one could recognize that these were skeletons from two different races.
One type of skeleton had no legs but a long spine, clearly the tail of a Sea Demon.
The skeletons of the other race were more distinct, short in stature, obviously Black Iron Dwarves.
Seeing the skeletons of the two races appear in the Star Tomb hall, Sona and the Dwarf King immediately became alert and distanced themselves a bit from each other.
The two races had been enemies for decades, and though Lu Heng had helped reconcile them, there was still mutual vigilance.
What did the appearance of the two races’ skeletons in the Star Tomb hall mean?
The initial reaction for both sides was that the two races had fought a battle in the Star Tomb and all perished here.
The reason for the conflict was not hard to guess, most likely the fight over treasure.
Lu Heng noticed the cautious movements from both sides, thinking to himself that if he weren’t standing in the middle, weapons might have already been drawn.
Lu Heng swept his gaze around the hall, then remarked:
"Perhaps your two races weren’t fighting here, but instead were jointly resisting some terrifying creature."
The light inside the Star Tomb was very dim, but as everyone adapted to the darkness, more objects became visible.
As Lu Heng said, although the Sea Demon and Black Iron Dwarf skeletons were mixed together, the directions they fell were not face-to-face but all towards the inside of the hall.
There, a massive skeleton stood, even kneeling on one knee, it was still ten meters high, with a scepter conspicuously lodged in its kneeling knee. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
