This is a volcano, how did Zulong achieve this? To make flames like this, and have them burn for thousands of years, this is truly a ghost from hell.
Elder Tang and Professor Lin thought the same. Is this volcano real?
But as soon as they felt the heat on their bodies, their doubts were completely dispelled. There was no pretense; this was all real.
The historians, biologists, and the architecture champion, along with the other participants, were equally shocked. Is this a tomb? Is this a tomb? Whose tomb has such capabilities?
This is a volcano, how did it get here?
Behind them, the students and security personnel felt their worldviews shattered upon seeing this scene.
Zulong's thinking is truly indescribable.
It's... incredibly striking, a feeling that makes one's worldview crumble.
In the live broadcast.
"Damn, oh my god, I've opened my eyes to this tomb, a tomb fit for immortals."
"Is this a tomb? Damn, if anyone says there's a dead person inside, I'll kill them. They're definitely trying to fool me."
"I just want to know, what's the principle behind this volcano? Why does it keep burning? Is it coal inside? Is it that effective?"
"Aren't you curious about what that thing in the middle is? That lotus is so cool, with flames on it, it's unbelievably awesome."
"No, whose flames have a lotus on them? Is this lotus heat-resistant? Has it been assimilated?"
...
In the dean's conference room.
The scene before them filled their hearts with shock. Has Zulong become this powerful? Can they control volcanoes?
The magma before was one thing, but this is within a formation, could there be something like this inside too?
"Dean... are they also within a formation? It looks so bizarre. I don't believe there's a volcano inside."
Professor Hu was greatly shocked, his pupils contracting sharply. He lost all semblance of a professor, looking like someone who had never seen the world.
Well, indeed, he hadn't seen the world.
"This... asking me is useless. I'm not Zhou Lin. You should ask Zhou Lin."
The dean, hearing this, stiffly turned his head, looking speechlessly at Professor Hu. His initial shock had been replaced by exasperation.
Is this professor a fool? Ask him? It would be better to ask the metaphysics professor.
Strange, why isn't the metaphysics professor excited? There's a lotus on the volcano, why isn't he calling this a strange phenomenon?
Has he changed his ways?
Thinking this, he looked at the metaphysics professor opposite him.
At this moment, the metaphysics professor was full of excitement, with a suppressed urge to shout.
"Ah... I know, I know."
The metaphysics professor suddenly shouted excitedly, almost raising his arms in triumph, his eyes filled with joy and uncontrollable laughter.
But this also made everyone's hearts tighten, and they quickly looked at the metaphysics professor.
Professor Wen instinctively clutched his chest. This was truly terrifying.
Being scared by what was on the big screen was one thing, but why was this person also scaring them?
"What are you doing? You scared me to death."
Professor Wen looked unhappily at the metaphysics professor, who acted like a lunatic all day.
"I found it, I know what this lotus is, haha."
The metaphysics professor looked at Professor Wen with great excitement.
Everyone else also became curious.
"This is called the Fiery Red Wood Lotus. It's an ancient lotus used to suppress demons. This thing is very rare, a once-in-a-millennium encounter. I never expected to find it here."
The metaphysics professor quickly explained.
Everyone in the conference room, upon hearing that this thing was rare, rejoiced collectively. It would be great if they could take this thing out for research.
But the dean was not as optimistic as these professors and experts.
Not for any other reason.
This wood lotus is used to suppress evil spirits. If it appears here, does it mean there are evil spirits below?
And there's another problem. Setting aside the demons, how will they cross this volcano?
The dean's heart sank.
Inside the tomb at this moment.
Zhou Lin looked at the wood lotus, very curious about what was beneath the volcano.
To deploy this wood lotus for suppression, the entity must be very powerful.
But now it's a dilemma.
How will they get this wood lotus down later?
This is one problem.
The architecture champion surveyed the surroundings. After seeing the scene, he couldn't help but wonder how the buildings they passed on the way in didn't look like they were entered from the entrance.
Was this volcano transported here piece by piece?
"Little friend Zhou Lin, do you know what this is?"
Elder Tang coughed lightly and asked with confusion.
"This is the Fiery Red Wood Lotus, used to suppress evil spirits. Elder Tang, let's think about how to deal with it later."
Zhou Lin passed the choice to Elder Tang and the archaeological team.
Some matters required them to make decisions.
The participants behind them, the students from the archaeological team, and the security personnel, upon hearing this news, felt a bad premonition.
They looked at Zhou Lin with nervous and timid expressions.
"What do you mean?"
Elder Tang was suspicious.
"This Fiery Red Wood Lotus has the effect of exorcising demons. Something must be suppressed beneath this volcano. But once the wood lotus disappears, what's suppressed beneath will appear."
"But if we don't go down, we can't leave here either."
Zhou Lin presented them with a choice.
Anyway, if he had to say continue, then go, don't be a coward, just do it.
As soon as these words were spoken, the students of the archaeological team and these participants, upon hearing this news, felt terrible.
The Taoists, historians, biologists, architecture champion, and the Wolf King, along with everyone else, turned pale upon hearing Zhou Lin's voice.
There's still danger, isn't this courting death?
"This..."
Elder Tang was momentarily in a difficult position, and couldn't help but be shocked by Zulong's thoughts.
No matter which choice they made, it was the same. If they wanted to pass, they had to release the danger. If they didn't, they would have to turn back, and all their previous efforts would be in vain.
What a brilliant plan. They were now on the grill, with no choice?
In the live broadcast.
"Holy crap, this is a real dilemma, how to choose?"
"The key is, no one knows what's suppressed underneath!"
"Could there be something more terrifying than flying corpses?"
"It's hard to say. These alchemists researched tombs for Zulong. Who knows if they created anything else? Ancient alchemists were skilled. If some corpses or ghosts appear, it's hard to say."
"Isn't there a big shot? The big shot can solve everything."
