Chapter 1369

“The Seven Stars Eclipse is one of the layouts for the top ten ancient tombs!” Flaxseed exclaimed in

awe.

As Jared knew nothing about the Seven Stars Eclipse and the top ten ancient tombs, he had no idea

what Flaxseed was talking about.

Honestly, I am deeply impressed by Mr. Flaxseed's knowledge in tomb exploration!

Realizing the look of confusion on Jared's face, Flaxseed motioned at him to come closer as he taught

him all about ancient tombs.

“The top ten ancient tombs all have different layouts. To be honest, there's nothing too special about

these ten ancient tombs. Their layouts are designed with the knowledge of geomancy in mind, which

allows them to bless the deceased's future generations with good luck and prosperity. This is a

relatively high-level technique. Out of the ten ancient tombs, less than three of them are actually

dangerous. In order to prevent others from raiding them, the tombs were filled with deadly traps. As

most of the people who tried entering those tombs have died, it served as an effective deterrent for

tomb raiders. The most famous tomb of all is the one known as 'Nine Hundred and Ninety-Nine Fake

Tombs.' As the name suggests, an immortal had built a thousand tombs before he died. Nine hundred

ninety-nine of those tombs were fake ones, and each of them had deadly traps that killed most of those

who entered. Not even the descendants of that immortal know the location of his true tomb. The Nine

Hundred and Ninety-Nine Fake Tombs were incredibly effective in keeping tomb raiders out as no one

was willing to risk their lives with such near-impossible odds. Only immortals with respectable statuses

in life are buried in such ancient tombs. As you already know, there aren't exactly that many immortals

out there. I can't believe we managed to stumble upon one of them.”

Jared's face was filled with disbelief after hearing what Flaxseed said. He looked up at the ceiling and

saw a sun surrounded by seven dazzling pearls.

Oh... This must be the Seven Stars Eclipse he was telling me about.

“I get it now. This stuff on the ceiling is the Seven Stars Eclipse, right? That means this is the Seven

Stars Eclipse tomb!” Jared said while pointing at the ceiling.

To his surprise, Flaxseed chuckled and shook his head. “The top ten ancient tombs wouldn't have

earned their reputation if they were that easily identified.”

“Huh? You mean this isn't how you identify them?” Jared asked awkwardly after a brief pause.

“Of course not! The Seven Stars Eclipse indicates there are seven tombs here. The one we're in is only

one of them! The Seven Stars Eclipse is a 'ley line' layout that corresponds to the seven stars. By

building the tomb at the best location according to geomancy, one is able to complete the Seven Stars

Eclipse layout. The 'Eclipse' is where we will find the actual tomb.”

Jared's jaw dropped when he heard that.

Whoa... I never knew it was this complex! It's definitely not as simple as I had imagined! Mr. Flaxseed

truly is an expert when it comes to this sort of thing! My knowledge is below elementary level compared

to his!

“This tomb that we're currently in... Is it where the immortal is buried?” Jared asked curiously.

Flaxseed shook his head. “I'm not too sure about that. Even if it isn't, there will still be treasures we can

loot.”

Jared breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. Phew! At least we won't have come all the way here

for nothing!

Flaxseed then led Jared deeper into the ancient tomb and observed their surroundings in detail.
