Honestly, Chen Xuantian was not inherently bold, but he couldn’t withstand the constant protocol of having to deal with demon extermination every few days. To be frank, he had become numb from experiencing it so often.

Ah, isn’t it just the Faceless Immortal? Isn’t it just the Great Void Heavenly Demon? At worst, it only means death. Anyway, he is caught in a trap with no escape, so what is there to fear?

As a result, Chen Xuantian was no longer startled easily. He simply kicked aside the Faceless Maid and walked into the tomb with large strides to continue his exploration.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he found the tomb had a four-zhang high rhombus-shaped earthen mound. Inside the tomb was a square wooden chamber several hundred square meters in size. The overall structure of the tomb was in the shape of the character "亚", with four burial paths, surrounded by double-layered walls made of custom stone materials buried with talismans and artifacts, capable of insulating from inside and outside, blocking demons, and shielding detection. The layout of the chamber was meticulous, divided into areas such as the main chamber, corridors, gallery-shaped hidden chambers, passageways, and a car and horse treasury. The functional region was extremely clear, with over ten thousand items of goldware, bronzeware, bamboo slips, and other treasures piled up. The main structure of the chamber consisted of Huangchang Dicou, chamber concealed with pine wood, side rooms, and Ziggurat.

Huangchang Dicou means the chamber is piled with cypress wood in a centripetal manner, named after the ancient Immortal Palace’s highest level burial system. This specification was generally used for emperors during the Ancient Immortal Palace era, and only top-level Dukes and nobles were allowed to use it. However, if the parents of the lady here truly were the Eastern Country clan’s daughter Zheng Ji and her husband, the Heir of Duke and Marquis, then there was nothing inappropriate.

After all, Chen Xuantian had read about Zheng Ji’s story in historical records, and she is considered one of the peerless beauties of the Ancient Immortal Palace era, famously known as a femme fatale.

In short, this person was actually a daughter of the clan, an imperial relative. Since her domain was in Zheng, she was also called Zheng Ji, originally a Princess of the Eastern Country, and her father wasn’t a mere Duke, he was a King, an Immortal King, and was respected as one of the Four Ministers, a legitimate son born to the Immortal Venerable and Empress, with a succession rank of a vassal Immortal King, direct royal bloodline, and inherited titles.

Not only was she of extremely noble and splendid birth, but the lady also was stunningly beautiful, a femme fatale, who married several royal family nobles, and with a romantic nature, she prompted the princes and royal family members to compete fiercely, ultimately leading to internal strife, breeding rebellion, and causing an Immortal King’s uprising.

Of course, blaming the entire issue on a single woman is not right. Ultimately, at that time, the Immortal Palace was already a powder keg, but Zheng Ji was indeed the most dazzling fuse.

That era’s Immortal Palace was in its prime, sweeping across the six continents, dominating eight wildernesses, pressuring the four seas, and was at its peak of ascendance. The Immortal Venerable was unprecedentedly invincible, becoming so overwhelmingly unbeatable that unintentionally punched through to Outer Heaven. Naturally, all beings exclaimed in awe, bowed their heads, and became subordinate, not daring to have any dissent.

But not necessarily his descendants. After all, although these brothers were second-generation, back in the day, they were follower ministers, founding shareholders, following their father in sweeping away demons, battling on the field, each one fierce with fists hard enough for Martial Gods and Saints, Divinity Transformation and Sanctification. Even if the elder brother took the Emperor’s Throne, wouldn’t it be reasonable for the younger ones to be appointed as kings?

Thus, the Immortal Palace system became well-known for dividing the realms among the Four Countries and Eight Domains. At that time, the Twelve Countries’ Immortal Kings and Kings were undoubtedly managed by clan princes, all were Immortal Kings of the Divinity Transformation Realm, powerful enough to suppress regions. Among them, the Four Ministers from the East, West, South, and North were regarded as pure royal blood, their succession order surpassing those who couldn’t even unleash Hundred Layers of Gang Fist.

With heaven and earth settled, Four Countries’ clan, Twelve Countries’ Immortal Kings, countless Dukes, the princes and heirs, all practiced Cross Training Gang Fist, possessing Miracle Spiritual Elixir, Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, Divine Weapons, becoming super combat muscle men, naturally displaying rampant arrogance, free to do as they please, unrestrained.

The initially reigning Second Immortal Emperor, being the eldest and having the strongest fist force, barely maintained the situation. However, when selecting the Crown Prince for the Third Generation Immortal Emperor, the princes, royal family members, uncles, and brothers disagreed.

After all, they were all Immortal Kings and Vassal Kings, fists hard, domains vast, armies numerous, how could they possibly comply with the so-called court regulations, clan system? Why should a legitimate son who had never been on the battlefield inherit the Emperor’s throne? Logically, is it not the strongest who prevails? Should it not be the Emperor who commands the strongest army, and whose forces are the greatest? Should the Emperor’s throne not be occupied by the fist hardest, muscle fullest, and battle capabilities peak man?

Thus, using the dispute over Zheng Ji as an excuse, princes from various countries who had long harbored rebellion, clan princes who sought to ascend the chaos ladder, dukes and officials joined the clan conflict, seizing the chance to form factions, conspiracies to seize the throne, ultimately spiraling into an uncontrollable situation, reaching the stage of national disputes, king rebellions, with a total of eight out of twelve countries rebelling, indicating the chaotic situation at the time, almost plunging the world back into disaster.

Fortunately, although the Immortal Venerable had shattered the void, although the Guardian Immortal Army that swept through Ten Thousand Demons had mostly aged and passed away, the Spiritual Clan remained! Humans can’t live for thousands of years, but demons can! Fight, fight, fight wasn’t enough? Humans might want to fight but demons don’t want to fight anymore!

So, the Four Ministers who had assisted the Immortal Venerable in pacifying the world regrouped, with Left General Meng Zhang commanding the troops for frontline operations, and the Three Constellations with Right Minister King Huanhe assisting the court administering from the center. With assistance from the Demon Clan, the chaos caused by the Immortal King rebellion was surprisingly pacified by the court in just a few years, resulting in four Immortal Kings and two Imperial Ministers being killed in battle among chaotic forces, while the remaining were stripped of their titles and imprisoned for life.
