It was only after Wang Guoninsen's narrative that they learned of a mysterious tomb entrance hidden deep within the restricted area of the Inner Residence, rumored to hold an abundance of rare treasures!

Nibensen never mentioned the extreme dangers within; he only spoke in glowing terms about the tomb's wonders. His sole purpose was to lure Zhong Shenxiu and Robin inside!

The peril within far exceeded imagination. Even with his Sword God strength, Nibensen only dared to venture around the outer layers of the tomb. Any further advance might mean never getting out, and before each foray, he would always send livestock like live cattle and sheep ahead!

Nibensen's intention was crystal clear: he wanted Zhong Shenxiu and Robin to enter and never return. This way, the "Stasi Family" would be free of future worries!

What he didn't know was that Zhong Shenxiu and Robin had previously navigated an ancient tomb; no matter how perilous the place, it couldn't defeat them.

Nibensen’s revelation thrilled Zhong Shenxiu. He had already tasted the sweet rewards from the previous tomb and hadn't even fully researched everything he'd acquired. Would this new tomb bring yet another surprise?

Zhong Shenxiu feared danger the least. The more perilous the environment, the happier he became, because it indicated better, untouched treasures.

However, Zhong Shenxiu maintained a calm façade. Although he agreed to enter the tomb, before they departed, he played another card with Nibensen: the servants' contracts!

Nibensen had no desire for Zhong Shenxiu to change his mind at this crucial juncture. What was a handful of servants? They could be replaced later. The priority now was to appease these two little devils!

In a short while, the servants' contracts were brought forth. Because of these documents, the servants were bound to serve the "Stasi Family" for generations, stripped of all human rights. Niuniu’s mother was the perfect example; without Zhong Shenxiu and Robin stepping in, no one would have cared if a mere servant lived or died! Zhong Shenxiu glanced over the contracts and casually asked, "Is that all?"

"That is all!" Nibensen hastily replied.

Zhong Shenxiu pursued the matter no further. After ensuring the documents were secured, he signaled for Nibensen to lead the way!

Nibensen had been waiting for those exact words. Thrilled, he led Zhong Shenxiu and Robin toward the rear residence!

The others did not follow. They were desperate to get as far away from those two little devils as possible. To follow them now would require a serious lapse in judgment; only a fool would dare!

After Zhong Shenxiu and Robin had been gone for a good fifteen minutes, the remaining group finally let go of their tightly wound nerves, sinking onto nearby chairs.

Those thirty-plus minutes felt as long as several centuries. Everyone’s heart was still pounding wildly.

Half an hour passed, yet not a single person in the entire hall spoke. All eyes stared blankly ahead, utterly unfocused!

Terrifying. It was truly terrifying!

That oppressive feeling, like the arrival of death, was suffocating and capable of driving a person insane. They genuinely couldn't comprehend how two such little monsters could exist in this world—they were simply unbeatable!

If these two children were this formidable now, what would they become when they grew up? Would anyone else even have a right to live then?

If these two became assassins, no one would escape death. Such dangerous entities were surely enemies of the entire world!

Yet, even if they did turn against the world, who would dare make a sound?

Meanwhile, Zhong Shenxiu and Robin took several turns and twists, walking for about half an hour before finally arriving at the location Nibensen had specified!

"This is it," Nibensen pointed to a stone opening in the ground.

Zhong Shenxiu and Robin said nothing and immediately headed into the hole.

Seeing them enter, Nibensen did not leave immediately. He stood guard outside for nearly an hour. Finally, seeing that the two showed no signs of emerging, a cold, triumphant smile spread across his face.

Hmph, once inside this place, no matter how skilled you are, don't even think about coming out. Enjoy yourselves in there!

Nibensen thought smugly as he departed, even dispatching men to guard the area strictly, ordering them to report any disturbance immediately!

However, his triumph was premature. Things were not as simple as he imagined. At that very moment, Zhong Shenxiu and Robin had easily navigated the mechanisms and officially entered the ancient tomb.

Through an exploration using spirit waves, Zhong Shenxiu discovered that this place was far more complex than the previous tomb they had visited; this one was divided into three distinct layers.

Moreover, it did not disappoint Zhong Shenxiu. Not only were there bizarre creatures, but also a wealth of ancient texts and treasures—they were guaranteed to return laden with loot!

The items here were far superior to anything they had extorted from Nibensen. The crucial factor wasn't their monetary value, but the immense research potential they held!

Without the burden of others, Zhong Shenxiu and Robin would complete their thorough search much faster! Conservatively estimated, it should take only about four days!

Before delving into serious exploration, Zhong Shenxiu used a spirit wave to send a message back to Kaini, mainly to inform her that he and Robin would be delayed for a few days!

This was the advantage of spirit waves—the ability to transmit thoughts without physical presence!

Next came the exploration. The passages branched in every direction. Zhong Shenxiu chose one, noting that a few magical beasts were lurking not far ahead!

Let’s first examine the characteristics of the magical beasts here!

Saying this, Zhong Shenxiu led Robin forward. Their relaxed demeanor showed none of the tension usually associated with adventure; it was as if they were on a honeymoon!

Robin cherished these moments alone with Zhong Shenxiu, sticking close to his side, docile as a gentle cat.

As the two drew closer, they finally sensed a fleeting flash of killing intent. Clearly, those few magical beasts had spotted them and were preparing to strike!

Perhaps the readers wonder why, if there are magical beasts here, they don’t venture out to hunt?

The reason is simple. Like the previous tomb, this place was secured by several barriers and magic arrays that strictly confined the beasts' range of activity! These arrays weren't just restraints; if someone unfamiliar triggered them, they would activate magical traps!

However, such things posed no challenge to Zhong Shenxiu. He had conducted detailed research on magic arrays and could discern the principles and functions of each with a single glance. Because of this, they had walked this far without anything happening, as if strolling down a main street!

Fifty meters. Both Zhong Shenxiu and Robin sensed the beasts hiding in the darkness fifty meters away. Although they tried hard to conceal their presence, they couldn't fool the pair! Just as Zhong Shenxiu wondered if these beasts were also "Dark-Type Magical Beasts," something bizarre occurred.

Behind them, a ripple of spatial distortion suddenly appeared. Zhong Shenxiu's body visibly stiffened, as if realizing something, and a fervent light sparked in his eyes. Robin also felt it, stopping immediately and turning around.

To attempt casting "Spatial Magic" in front of these two was akin to showing off carpentry skills to a master craftsman!

In mere seconds, a purple tiger shot out from the location of the spatial fluctuation. It immediately bared its fangs and claws and lunged at Zhong Shenxiu, clearly intending to bite him to death—a practiced, fluid motion that suggested much private rehearsal!

Zhong Shenxiu remained still, but a triumphant smile played on his lips. His earlier guess was proven correct: this magical beast was indeed a "Spatial-Type Magical Beast"!

"Spatial-Type Magical Beasts" were even rarer than "Dark-Type Magical Beasts." From birth, they struggled against countless harsh conditions, especially since mastering "Spatial Magic" was notoriously difficult; a misstep could lead to being crushed by spatial turbulence!

It could be said that the survival rate for "Spatial-Type Magical Beasts" was extremely low!

However, once they reached adulthood, these beasts became terrifyingly powerful, moving like phantoms, impossible to catch! If they wished to flee, no one could hold them!

But this wasn't an absolute rule, at least not in front of Zhong Shenxiu and Robin—no matter how powerful a "Spatial-Type Magical Beast" was, escape was impossible!

Zhong Shenxiu didn't move, but Robin took action. With little fanfare, merely twisting and flicking his wrist, the beast was slammed heavily onto the ground.

A loud "Bang!" echoed far in the quiet passage, startlingly clear.

This was followed by the beast's painful wails, clearly injured severely by the fall—a treatment it had likely never endured in its life!

Just as Zhong Shenxiu bent down to examine the creature, the space rippled again, and suddenly three more magical beasts materialized out of thin air.

However, mere numbers gave them no substantial advantage; Robin subjected them to the same treatment, sending them crashing down.

It was clear these last three beasts were stronger than the first. Although they also hit the ground hard, they instantly leaped up, intending to launch a second wave of attack on Robin, when an invisible, immense force struck, binding them firmly in place!

This was Zhong Shenxiu's doing. He was currently studying these beasts; he couldn't have them running around!

The beasts struggled defiantly, but the more they thrashed, the stronger the restraining force became.

They finally realized these two small figures were an insurmountable presence. They tried to unleash their "Spatial Magic" to escape, but they found themselves unable to move. Since Zhong Shenxiu knew they were "Spatial-Type Magical Beasts," he wouldn't allow them to flee so easily; he had already made preparations!

Roar!

At that moment, a deafening beast roar sounded from not far away—clearly, a much more formidable magical beast was emerging.

Zhong Shenxiu chuckled, withdrawing his focus from the restrained beasts, thinking inwardly: The small ones take a beating, the big one is finally coming out!
