“So the place you thought of just now was at the edge of a cliff, quite a unique location,” Undying Maiden marveled, finding the youth she possessed to be truly remarkable for learning such a difficult spell in an instant.

“Unique my foot, I was thinking of Heaven’s Gate Peak, what kind of place is this!” Lu Yang exclaimed, as anyone would be unsettled suddenly appearing in the air above a cliff.

Most importantly, he was falling!

If he were to land solidly on the ground, becoming a mushy pile of flesh would be the best outcome.

Hearing this, Undying Maiden’s expression changed drastically, fearing that if Lu Yang were to suffer an accident, that little girl might scatter her soul to the winds!

“Hurry, hurry, let me take control of your body, I’ll save you!”

In such a critical moment, Lu Yang could not place his hopes on the unreliable Undying Maiden. As he fell faster and faster, he had to find a way to land safely.

Lu Yang took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. With nothing but darkness beneath his feet and unable to see anything, he didn’t have to worry about a fear of heights.

“Miles in a Step!”

Lu Yang hoped his newly learned spell would transport him back, which would be the best outcome.

The falling Lu Yang vanished in an instant, reappearing in the air above the cliff.

Lu Yang: “……”

It seems he couldn’t go back for now, but no matter, he had a second plan.

“Shrinking into Inches!”

Lu Yang only managed to shrink his body, while his clothes remained their original size. He tried to grab the corners of his clothes, forming a makeshift parachute, which finally slowed his descent.

“Phew—” Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

With steep cliffs on both sides, Lu Yang drifted uneasily in the middle, feeling apprehensive about what awaited him.

“Look, there’s a protrusion on that cliff, like a platform. You can land there!” Undying Maiden called out.

“Where, I don’t see it?” Lu Yang frowned.

“On the left, just on the left, your spiritual sense doesn’t extend as far as mine, I saw it before you!”

Following Undying Maiden’s directions, Lu Yang indeed landed on a platform.

Feeling solid ground under his feet, Lu Yang finally relaxed, having been terrified just moments before.

“Was what you just used really Miles in a Step?” Undying Maiden looked at Lu Yang skeptically. She had used it many times without ever encountering a similar situation.

“Supposedly… yeah.” Lu Yang wasn’t entirely sure, now somewhat aware of his talent for magic, knowing not all blame could be placed on his Eldest Senior Sister.

He also had a part to play.

“At least it’s a proper spatial magic, one that transports oneself.” Lu Yang comforted himself.

Moreover, Lu Yang’s practice of Miles in a Step had an advantage.

Monks practicing spatial magic fear encountering enemies with the same skill, as they could predict your teleportation destination and relentlessly pursue you, making them extremely troublesome.

Lu Yang didn’t have to worry about this, since even he didn’t know where he would end up transporting himself.

“Speaking of which, where are we?” Lu Yang looked up at the sky, with steep cliffs around, he could only see a sliver of blue sky, unable to determine their location.

He also didn’t know how far they were from the Dao Seeking Sect, or even if they were still in the Central Continent.

“No matter where we are, there’s no fear.”

Undying Maiden encouraged Lu Yang, “With me, a fairy, to protect and guide you, nothing can go wrong!”

Lu Yang felt it was better to rely on himself than on this immortal, at least he knew his own capabilities, which this immortal did not.

“Let’s take a look inside; this seems to be a cave dwelling,” Undying Maiden suggested.

“Alright.”

As soon as Lu Yang entered the cave dwelling, he heard a “bang” from behind him as two stone doors closed.

Lu Yang gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, but he couldn’t budge the doors, which were made of some unknown material.

Undying Maiden’s expression became serious: “Don’t waste your effort. This door was refined by a powerful being and cannot be moved by someone at the Foundation Building stage.”

As the stone doors closed, the originally dark cave dwelling became so black that nothing could be seen.

Just as Lu Yang was about to use the Three-Flavor True Fire to light up the surroundings, a faint glow suddenly lit up on both sides.

“Night pearls?” The long corridor of the cave dwelling was lined with luminous stones.

Lu Yang felt he had heard about this method of arranging night pearls before.

Where had he heard it?

“We can only go deeper now.”

In the empty corridor, only Lu Yang’s footsteps echoed, making it feel gloomy and eerie.

At the end of the corridor, stood two rows of majestic terracotta warriors, holding various magical instruments as if guarding something. The warriors surrounded a stone tablet inscribed with “Eternal Rest for the Deceased.”

Lu Yang finally recognized where the familiar feeling came from; this was a tomb!

“Eternal Rest for the Deceased” is a common inscription found in human tombs.

Lu Yang was creeped out, having never expected to walk into a tomb.

“This is a tomb?!” Undying Maiden tried to sound calm, but Lu Yang still detected a tremble and unease in her voice.

“It appears so.” Lu Yang nodded solemnly, feeling as though he had gotten involved in something significant.

“Gulp.” Undying Maiden swallowed nervously.

Seeing this, Lu Yang had a somewhat amusing thought: “Fairy, you’re not afraid of ghosts, are you?”

“Who, who would be afraid of such things? I am a noble fairy,” Undying Maiden’s voice trembled.

“But you are shaking.”

“It’s cold.”

“Do you still remember your title?”

“Undying Maiden.”

“With a title like that, in the world of tomb raiding, you would be considered a zombie ancestor or some other significant figure. What is there for you to fear?”

Remembering the fairy who had vowed to protect and guide him, Lu Yang felt that not believing in the fairy’s empty promises was the right decision.

“We don’t need to be afraid; I happen to have a book about tombs here.”

Lu Yang took out a book titled “Tomb Raiding Insights” from his identity jade card, a thank-you gift from the Shang family patriarch, Shang Zhongtian, after slaying a painted skin ghost.

“I didn’t expect it would come in handy here.”

“Oh, you have such a treasure.” Undying Maiden’s eyes lit up. The fear of tombs and ghosts naturally stems from the “unknown.”

With this book, their fear would be greatly reduced.

“Let’s see what it says, does it mention what type of tomb this is?” the fairy urged.

Lu Yang hadn’t looked at the book since he received it, but it wasn’t too late to start now.

He opened the first page and read aloud:

“According to Article 532 of ‘The Great Xia Penal Code’, any mortal or Qi Cultivation stage cultivator who excavates tombs of historical, artistic, or cultivation value shall be sentenced to imprisonment of no less than three years but no more than ten years, in addition to a fine; for those with lesser offenses, imprisonment of no more than three years and a fine.”

“For Foundation Building stage cultivators committing this crime, the sentencing shall be doubled compared to Qi Cultivation stage cultivators.”

Lu Yang felt this book wasn’t very reliable.
