Chapter 434 Southern Sky Gate

Along the way, Li Mu and Guo Yuqing came across any other living soul.

The scale of the Tomb of the God of Sin was beyond imagination, which seemed to be another small world.

What kind of opportunities could the Tomb of the God of Sin hold? Li Mu could not help but ask. He had not found the answer in the memory of Black Smoke. He just knew that it housed something that even the extraterrestrial factions were coveting.

Guo Yuqing said, It is rumored that several hundred deities have rested in peace here. Their legacy, weapons, Cultivation Methods, and so on, are lying in this underground tomb. Once upon a time, a man walked out of the Tomb of the God of Sin Come alive, and then he dominated a galaxy for a millennium and became the overlord of that galaxy

Li Mu was astonished. What? Hold on! He stared at his sworn brother with a baffled look and cried, Several hundred deities resting here? There are more than one of them?

Its not what you think. Guo Yuqing said. Some forbidden books in the Wolf Temple mentioned that a group of excellent generals from the ancient times fought to death here. So, its not one gods tomb.

Hearing that, Li Mu became conscious of the fact that the origin of the Tomb of the God of Sin might be far more incredible than he had imagined.

They came to the root of the city walls. The towering city gate could easily allow giants to pass through.

Li Mus eyes landed on the three large characters hanging over the gate, and he could not tear his eyes away from it for a long time.

Those three words were

Southern Sky Gate.

That came as a huge shock to Li Mu.

Because those three words were just too familiar for every Chinese.

In the myth of the Journey to the West, the Southern Sky Gate was the gateway to heaven. And in other Taoist legends, that gate was the entrance to the immortal realm. Therefore, the Southern Sky Gate had a quite special significance to the Chinese people on Earth.

But the city gate in the Tomb of the God of Sin was also called Southern Sky Gate?

Was that a coincidence?

Or was there some kind of correlation?

Li Mu examined the gate carefully but failed to find anything notable.

It was just that the three words were carved right over the gate. The penmanship was bold and powerful. The characters sank deep into the stone wall. After staring at the words for quite a while, Li Mu felt a surge of sharp qi blow into his face, as though an ax or a broadsword had hacked at him. Hitten by a pang of searing pain in his muscles, Li Mu hastily wrenched his eyes away from the three words.

Whats wrong? Guo Yuqing asked as he looked at Li Mu.

Li Mu shook his head and said, Nothing.

The two then entered the city from the Southern Sky Gate.

The city was ruined. They saw collapsed pavilions, battered streets, destroyed statues, as well as a dry river and many fossilized ancient trees. A sensation of desolation brought by the ruthless flow of time overwhelmed them.

The two soon made some new discoveries.

In a half-collapsed attic, they found a long broadsword and a large spear that were well preserved. The blades bore no trace of rust and were still shining brightly, exuding chilling air. The two weapons were styled quite unconventionally . There was no lettering on them, so it was impossible to know who they belonged to. Nevertheless, as the two weapons both contained Spiritual Qi, they were absolute masterpieces among Taoist instruments.

Li Mu picked up the long broadsword. The handle was wrapped in bright red silk, which had not decayed for at least a thousand years. The blade of the broadsword sported red blots, which looked like bloodstains. When Li Mu injected a small amount of natural qi into the blade, the tactical deployment in the broadsword was instantly activated. A tens-of-meters-long broadsword shadow burst out, which looked magnificent.

Nice broadsword! Li Mu exclaimed.

The grade of that broadsword was already above the Samsara Knife and the Broadsword Pellet.

Moreover, it appeared to belong to no one.

Its too easy, isnt it? I just came in here and bumped into such a precious weapon?

Guo Yuqing was holding the spear, which was about two meters long, as thick as a duck egg. It was covered by spiral patterns. The decorative red tassel was draping from the sharp end, making it look like a prop used in theaters on Earth. Yet, as he flicked it, the deployment patterns inside the spear switched on, and a big dragon erupted out from the end of the spear, growling. Its terrifying power was definitely enough to harm a Sage.

And that was the mere effect produced by a simple flick.

Li Mu and Guo Yuqing exchanged a look. And both of them revealed joy on their faces.

Those were 100% treasures!

If others knew they had such magnificent weapons, even the Nine Superbs would envy them. Those two weapons could be regarded as the most valuable treasures in any Holy Clan. However, in the tomb, they just lay in a dilapidated atti
