"Mr. Mu, did you find anything?"
Zhao Yan jumped down closely behind him.
"It's an official seal. Keep it safe, it may be useful."
He casually handed the official seal to Zhao Yan and Xiao Mu started searching in the grave pit again.
Whether it was an official seal or a military token, Xiao Mu, who was practicing the 'God Sealing Technique of the Heavenly Emperor,' could use them for ennoblement, and if he could find the original owner of such items, it would add a great asset.
Other things Xiao Mu perhaps didn't value that much, but he had to keep the seal token.
Knowing the reason, Zhao Yan immediately threw the official seal to Wang Tong, who was standing by the edge of the tomb pit. Wang Tong reached out and caught it, examining it in his hand.
This is...
Not long after, Xiao Mu made a new discovery.
The grave pit was usually regular, however, in one place under this pit, there was an extra gap.
It was evident from the gap that something had been dug out from it.
The gap was not big, about the size of an adult's fist, you would easily ignore this gap if you weren't paying close attention.
The reason why Xiao Mu noticed it was because the gap was faintly emitting a special aura.
It was emanating a strong killing intent, seemingly carrying the sharpness of a treasure sword, making people feel involuntarily chilled as they approached it.
It gave the feeling as if someone was pointing an extremely sharp knife, causing one's entire body to feel goosebumps.
How could this be?
Xiao Mu was surprised.
From the appearance of the gap, it should have been a block of something, perhaps a stone.
However, the aura emanating from the pit made one feel as if a treasure sword had been buried here.
A real treasure sword with spirituality.
This was truly astonishing!
You must understand that Xiao Mu, who had seen many treasures, had never seen a treasure like a treasure sword.
What is referred to as a treasure sword, is not that kind which can chunk away iron like mud, but a sword with special abilities, like a flying sword.
Not because of anything else, but according to the current level of the Mortal Realm, items like a sword should not appear.
It's very simple, things like a sword belong to the realm of Flying Sword Immortals.
The realm of the Flying Sword Immortal, according to Xiao Mu's estimates, belongs to the Congenital Realm.
The Mortal Realm is just the Postnatal Realm.
This is the current limit of the world.
Since it is only the Postnatal Realm, how can there be something from the Congenital Realm?
However, this gap gave Xiao Mu a different feeling.
As if a flying sword had once been buried in this gap.
This was simply inconceivable!
How is that possible?
Even Xiao Mu, the initiator of the Mutant World, felt it was highly unlikely. He was very clear about the significance of the Postnatal Realm (Mortal Realm).
At this level, it is absolutely not supposed to and cannot have something at the level of the flying sword.
Could it be that the so-called flying sword perform special tasks, just like Qing Yan Monk, Divine Phoenix Woman, Human Emperor, and Tao Ancestor?
If so, that would explain it.
But if it were really like this, Xiao Mu wouldn't help but to be greatly disappointed.
Anyway, he was still hoping to find a flying sword rather than a predecessor who achieved it by a flying sword.
It's simple, even the predecessors who achieved it by flying swords are very strong, it has no connection with him.
Could it be that the zombie was looking for this?
Xiao Mu couldn't help but speculate.
Immediately after, he confirmed his speculation.
Because in this grave pit, the zombie had obviously been looking specifically and in comparison to other pits, it was searched in a messier manner.
The zombie didn't get that treasure?
Xiao Mu suddenly had this speculation in his mind.
According to the various clues found, he believed his speculation should be correct.
Otherwise, the zombie would not vent its anger by destroying the tombstone.
If it wasn't found, then where did the treasure go?
Xiao Mu could feel his heart rate quickening.
He raised his head and looked outside the tomb pit.
"Huh!"
Something quickly caught Xiao Mu's attention.
Not far from the edge of the tomb pit, there was a pool of vomit. More precisely, it was Yin Spirit's vomit.
Yin Spirits are different from humans. They don't need to eat. But that doesn't mean they won't consume anything at all.
Upon encountering some special Heavenly Treasures, Yin Spirits could be more excited than humans.
The reason Xiao Mu knew this was vomit from a Yin Spirit and not a human, was due to the distinct differences.
From the vomit, Xiao Mu first found pieces of shredded paper.
Shredded paper radiating power.
Could it be... this Yin Spirit ate some martial arts secret scripts?
There weren't many shreds of paper. The Yin Spirit didn't eat much of the martial arts secret scripts, probably only a few pages.
Nonetheless, this phenomenon made Xiao Mu suspect something was off.
For a Yin Spirit, martial arts secret scripts are a great supplement. How could they vomit after eating it?
Something's wrong!
Definitely something's wrong!
Did the Yin Spirit eat something else? And the vomiting wasn't because of the martial arts secret scripts, but some other thing?
Xiao Mu, realizing there could be a problem, used a twig to stir in the vomit, attempting to discover something.
Something was quickly found.
A very tiny, tiny stone, which was faintly emitting sword energy.
Intense energy!
The type of sword energy was identical to the one Xiao Mu saw in the pit earlier.
Sword embryo!
Staring at this extremely small stone, Xiao Mu exhibited a shocked expression.
This was a sword embryo, he was certain.
Even though he had never seen such a thing before, he could guess by intuition that this stone was indeed a sword embryo.
Sword embryos come in many forms. Judging from the current stone, it's likely a regular stone that had absorbed some form of power and started developing its sword energy.
Then, the stone continued absorbing special power, feeding the sword energy inside it, gradually maturing until eventually becoming a flying sword.
This stone seemed to be exactly in that condition.
"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao."
Just as he was about to continue his exploration, Zhao Yan suddenly called to him.
"Zhao Yan, what's up?"
Xiao Mu turned to look at Zhao Yan.
"Look."
Zhao Yan suddenly pointed inside the coffin, ushering Xiao Mu to see.
"Huh!"
If Zhao Yan hadn't mentioned it, Xiao Mu might not have noticed the abnormality of the coffin. Once Zhao Yan pointed it out, he soon spotted it.
Inside the coffin, surprisingly, there weren't one but two bodies.
A body is simply a body, unless it becomes a zombie, it won't radiate anything unusual or any Yin Qi.
Even though there were two bodies in this coffin, Xiao Mu, who practices Xuanmen Zhenggang, didn't notice anything unusual.
Only after Zhao Yan's reminder, did Xiao Mu become aware of the situation.
He couldn't help but squint into the coffin.
Two bodies, to be precise, two skeletons.
After all, both bodies would have decomposed after hundreds of years, leaving only two skeletons.
The top skeleton was of an adult, the lower one was clearly a child.
Both skeletons showed signs of being moved not long ago. The adult's skeleton covered the child's, which was why Xiao Mu didn't notice it earlier.
