Chapter 991 Then let's try it

Chapter 2166: The Fountain of Rebirth"What, what's going on here"

Everyone was stunned, waving their hands, but all their inner energy vanished, leaving them as ordinary people.

Guo Wei frowned, clenching his fists tightly. However, the qi within him was suppressed and he couldn't unleash it at all.

“This must be a suppression formation, it’s suppressing our qi!”

Hu Bazi explained.

"Master Hu, do you have a way to break this formation" asked Guo Wei.

Deprived of their strength, they were unable to open the bronze coffin. What lay within remained a mystery.

Hu Bazi shook his head: "This kind of large-scale formation, I can't decipher it. And this place uses mountains as the array and water as the eye. Such a grand design is probably only something that top-level magic masters could set up. If I'm not mistaken, this should be the dragon vein mentioned by emperors throughout the ages."

"Dragon vein" Guo Wei was slightly taken aback.

He didn't understand any of this, so he had no idea what Hu Bazi was talking about.

Throughout history, royal families have always sought out talented individuals to find auspicious dragon veins for the prosperity of the nation. This place must be what a certain emperor found, but which dynasty it belonged to, I'm afraid I don't know.

Hu Bayi explained.

Hu Bazi explained, and Guo Wei finally understood. However, looking at the copper coffin before him, giving up like this still made Guo Wei feel a bit unwilling.

But now they have lost all their energy and can't get close to the bronze coffin. They can only return the way they came, but having obtained the Nine Ten Thousand Li Mountain and River Diagram, it wasn't a wasted journey.

Since we've found the coffin and can't open it, let's head back. This trial is over for now!

Guo Wei had to issue the command for the trial to end.

Many people looked dejected. They had expected to find countless treasures within the imperial tomb, but in the end, there was nothing except for a single painting, which Dragon Xiao now held in his hand.

Now that Guo Wei has spoken, everyone has no choice but to obey. After all, there's no use staying here, their spirits are suppressed, and they can't do anything.

Just as Guo Wei was about to lead his men back the way they came, Chen Ping suddenly stepped forward.

"Wait a minute, you stole my stuff and just walked away"

Chen Ping's eyes were cold, with a hint of a smile playing on his lips.

Just as the formation was activated and everyone's Qi was suppressed, Chen Ping tried it out and found that he wasn't affected at all.

Chen Ping's cultivation wasn't of *qì* (vital energy), but of *lìng qì* (spiritual energy). Therefore, this formation had no effect on Chen Ping.

Now everyone was suppressed, even Guo Wei became an ordinary person. Chen Ping didn't have to be afraid of him anymore, and it was a good opportunity to take the Nine Ten Thousand Miles Map.

"Chen Ping, what do you want to do"

Long Xiao looked at Chen Ping and asked.

"Of course I got the painting back!"

Chen Ping said, and strode towards Long Xiao.

"Chen Ping, even though I've been suppressed in my Qi, you're not doing much better either. If we fight, all of us here could turn you into a paste!"

Long Xiao was fearless. Although his qi was suppressed, he believed that Chen Ping was now just like an ordinary person, nothing to be afraid of.

"Is that so Then let's give it a try..."

Chen Ping stepped forward, grabbed the Nine Ten Thousand Miles Mountain and River Diagram in his hand, and with a slight effort, took it away.

Long Xiao was startled, and immediately threw a punch at Chen Ping. This punch was pure physical power, without any trace of internal energy.

Bang......

Long Xiao's fist smashed into Chen Ping's chest, but Chen Ping didn't budge. Immediately following was Long Xiao's scream of pain.

Long Xiao only felt like his punch landed on an iron plate, the intense pain spreading throughout his body.

smack!

Chen Ping slapped him with one hand, and Long Xiao's body flew out like a kite with its string cut. He crashed heavily into the stone wall.n if that Chen Ping reaches the top, what difference does it make He'll be gravely injured and likely unable to lift the Bell Hammer, let alone ring the Dragon-Patterned Bell.""Stop wasting time, ever...
