CHAPTER 1244: CHAPTER 1245: AN YIQING CRIED (2)

On the spacious high platform, there was only a golden coffin made entirely of pure gold. The coffin was surrounded by densely carved ancient and mysterious totems, its craftsmanship comparable to royal artifacts in modern museums. A preliminary estimate suggested that this golden coffin was worth at least nine figures. Even Ah Mi and Yin Xilin, who were not familiar with market value, could see its preciousness.

But at this moment, An Yiqing and the others had no mind to appreciate the value and intricacy of this golden coffin because they discovered a problem—it couldn’t be opened!

Looking over the entire high platform, this coffin lay here all alone, with no other furnishings!

"Master, do you think this coffin might also have a mechanism like the stone door before?"

An Yiqing nodded, her brow slightly furrowed.

"Let’s spread out and search to see if there’s anything different."

With that, An Yiqing crouched down first, starting to explore the coffin.

This coffin was supposed to contain the corpse of the Situ Family’s ancestor, Situ Ming. Grandma Fengling had mentioned that the bloodline descendants of the Situ Family only need the Family Head’s verbal teaching to receive the legacy. Only outsiders must come to the Situ Family’s legacy ground and undergo a series of trials, a dual test of the inheritor’s mental and physical prowess, as well as a loyalty check for those outside the family.

As An Yiqing explored the patterns on the coffin, she quickly analyzed Situ Ming’s intentions at the time and considered where the mechanism might be.

Meanwhile, below the platform, An Zhifeng and the others were rapidly losing stamina. Particularly their arms and legs—they were all swollen from the tremendous impact of the Golden Armor Man.

Gu Yelin’s handsome face seemed to freeze over with ice, his dark eyes exuding a fierce light, his figure flitting through the crowd like a phantom. Everywhere he passed, the Golden Armor Man fell, leaving an area of devastation akin to a barren wasteland.

However, despite the seemingly one-sided situation, Gu Yelin knew that at this point, he was their only main force left. Tan Yulin and the others’ bodies couldn’t withstand such high-intensity blows; it was only a matter of time before they were knocked down.

If a few people came, then a few people would leave together. Gu Yelin absolutely could not allow the death of his friends to happen.

With a storm brewing in his dark eyes, Gu Yelin elevated his Inner Breath to the maximum, forming a powerful vortex of airflow centered around him, making it nearly impossible for the Golden Armor Men around him to stand!

At the moment Gu Yelin elevated his Inner Breath to its peak, his body suddenly moved. His fists struck out fiercely, crashing towards the two Golden Armor Men closest to him!

In an instant, the solid Golden Armor Men shattered on impact! Along with them, a whole section of Golden Armor Men turned into broken limbs and fragments!

However, the extensive damage caused by such an attack came with a dire consequence; both of Gu Yelin’s hands were injured, blood constantly pouring from them!

As soon as An Zhifeng and the others saw a group of armor men fall, they were overjoyed, but when they noticed Gu Yelin’s injured hands, their faces suddenly darkened.

In this world, there were very few who could injure Gu Yelin, and these armor men were indeed incredibly difficult to handle!

Everyone summoned their utmost energy, doing their best to buy time for An Yiqing and the others.

While Gu Yelin’s hands were injured, An Yiqing on the high platform finally found some clues.

She discovered that the patterns on the five sides of the golden coffin were identical, but in the lower right corner, there was something slightly different.
