Chapter 529: Grave Robbing?

The Mysterious Woman nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems it isn't here either."

There was a hint of disappointment in her tone.

Xiao Fan asked curiously, "What is the item you are looking for?"

"…Actually, I don't know either," the Mysterious Woman said.

"You don't know?!" Xiao Fan was stunned. If she didn't know what she was looking for, what was she busy doing here?

"It is true that I don't know…" the Black-robed Woman explained. "That item was recorded in ancient texts; it is an object containing mysterious spiritual energy."

"Mysterious power? Is it spiritual energy?"

"No… the spiritual energy contained within that object is not the spiritual energy of the Nine Provinces… It is hard to describe, but if I come into contact with it, I will be able to sense it," the Mysterious Woman said.

"Not the spiritual energy of the Nine Provinces?" Xiao Fan was stunned. Could spiritual energy be divided into different types?

The Mysterious Woman sighed, offered no further explanation, and took Xiao Fan away once again…

She possessed that mysterious small tower, and since she was unaffected, she could fly through the air, coming and going freely without any obstacles…

Xiao Fan still remembered that this Secret Realm would only last for about three months…

He had reminded the Mysterious Woman many times, but the latter completely ignored him.

He didn't know how many more days had passed as the Mysterious Woman took Xiao Fan with her, having him interpret the content of the mysterious characters on one ancient painting after another.

"This Secret Realm might only last for three months… If we don't leave by then, we will be trapped inside," Xiao Fan said once again, looking at the Mysterious Woman.

The Mysterious Woman said indifferently, "Don't worry, I guarantee you won't die!"

Xiao Fan: "…"

This woman was very mysterious, and terrifyingly powerful.

Although he didn't know where she got such confidence, Xiao Fan felt that she wasn't lying.

Therefore, he could only bite the bullet and agree.

The two of them spent about half a month in this underground palace, visiting every place, but they still hadn't found the item the Mysterious Woman wanted to find.

"Where could the item be…" The Mysterious Woman sighed. In this underground palace, the only thing she hadn't approached was that bronze coffin.

"How long do we have to keep looking…" Xiao Fan was speechless; he didn't even know how long he had been inside.

Every day was just translating!

"Let's go!" The Mysterious Woman ignored him, grabbed him, and left.

Xiao Fan was already used to it; being grabbed by the collar by the Mysterious Woman and carried away like a little chick…

The two appeared in the room where the bronze coffin was kept.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Fan felt a powerful pressure; this suppression almost made him unable to catch his breath…

It was absolute suppression based solely on Realm…

Even if it was just a dead body inside the coffin, it was the same!

The suppression the Mysterious Woman felt was clearly much less than Xiao Fan's.

She sighed and reached out to help Xiao Fan resist most of the pressure.

However, with Xiao Fan's current strength, he was unable to get close at all.

"Follow me," the Black-robed Woman said, leading Xiao Fan forward.

Feeling the pressure decrease, Xiao Fan sighed, and he was also very curious about this great hall containing the bronze coffin.

They had only opened the bronze door to this great hall before and had never gone deep inside…

The Mysterious Woman bore most of the pressure and took Xiao Fan inside…

Inside this great hall, there was nothing else besides the coffin…

The ancient paintings on the walls were not much different from those outside and contained nothing of value.

The front part looked like a memorial hall.

The Mysterious Woman took Xiao Fan to the front of the memorial hall; there were no spirit tablets, only two stone candle holders.

"Who exactly is this person?" Xiao Fan asked curiously, looking at the Mysterious Woman.

The woman shook her head: "I don't know. It might be a living being from the Nine Provinces of the past."

"The Nine Provinces of the past?!" Xiao Fan was stunned. "Although I have never left Wuhuang Province, but… a powerhouse of this level, their race should also be very strong. How come I have never heard of them now…"

Xiao Fan hadn't left the Nine Provinces, but he had previously seen the two people who took Long Miaoyin away.

They were very strong, but…

Even that old man's aura was not in the same league compared to the person in this coffin.

The Mysterious Woman shook her head: "I don't know. Most of the ancient texts from ten thousand years ago were destroyed…"

"Destroyed? Ten thousand years…" Xiao Fan was stunned, and he suddenly thought of something.

It seemed that the Jixian Sect also suffered a great catastrophe ten thousand years ago, but he had only heard about the specifics.

"That's right, ten thousand years," the Mysterious Woman said.

She and Xiao Fan had now been together for nearly a month.

In this secluded environment where only the two of them were present, she didn't mind answering a few more of Xiao Fan's questions.

"What happened ten thousand years ago?" Xiao Fan pressed.

"I don't know… Or rather, those who know are unwilling to say," the Mysterious Woman said. "There are very few people who know about this…"

Xiao Fan sighed; he still wanted to ask about other things…

But the Mysterious Woman didn't give him the chance.

"The item I want might be inside this coffin!"

"What!" Xiao Fan was stunned. Inside this coffin?

Are they going to rob a grave?!
