Outside the passage, a group of practitioners stared at the location of the passage. Long Bo and his group were the last to leave the Wu Tomb. After they left, no other practitioners appeared.

Suddenly, the passage trembled slightly and began to close rapidly.
"well… "
Looking at the closed passage, Long Teng sighed softly. The passage was closed, and he would surely die if he didn't leave Wu Tomb. Even if Yang Qi defeated Long Meng and others, he would only die if he stayed in Wu Tomb.
"Brother Long Qi!"
There was a trace of pain on the faces of Long Su and others. If they had held out a glimmer of hope before, then with the closure of the passage, this glimmer of hope was completely gone.
"It's over!" Long Kang's heart was filled with bitterness. The passage was closed, and Long Meng and others did not show up. Even if they were not killed by Yang Qi, they would have no way out.
Long Meng died, but someone had to bear the consequences. Yang Qi died, and the powerful people behind Long Meng had no place to seek revenge, so they could only vent their anger on those living practitioners.
Long Kang was worried about the anger of the Martial Emperor behind Long Meng, but Long Kun, Long Ao and others were even more miserable. The death of all the Nine-Star Martial Emperors who entered the Martial Tomb meant that there was a gap in the Nine-Star Martial Emperor practitioners of their generation, which was a huge loss for a practicing force.
A Martial Emperor who was in charge of the formation looked at the practitioners staring at the closed position of the passage and couldn't help but frowned slightly and asked, "What? Is there anyone who hasn't come out yet?"
The practitioners who entered the Wu Tomb had long been warned to return to the place where they entered the Wu Tomb on time to gather. The time for opening the passage was enough for the practitioners to leave the Wu Tomb. Unless they were delayed and could not reach the gathering point on time, it was almost impossible for them to arrive at the gathering point but not be able to leave.
Hearing this, Long Teng said with a look of emotion, "Replying to the elder, it's not that some people didn't come out, but this trip to the martial tomb has lost a lot of practitioners."
“I have warned you long ago that you should act within your capabilities. The Martial Tomb itself is not too dangerous. As long as you don’t venture too deep, you generally won’t encounter any danger.” The Martial Emperor snorted coldly.
The Wu Tomb had existed for such a long time, and the major branches had entered the Wu Tomb more than once or twice. After so many experiences, the major branches had also understood the dangers of the Wu Tomb. As long as one was careful and cautious in the Wu Tomb, there would be no danger. If one encountered danger, the most likely possibility was that the cultivator himself had ventured into the depths.
“This time, it wasn’t that the practitioners ventured deep into the cave, but rather that some branches attacked practitioners from other branches, resulting in the deaths of many practitioners.” Long Teng said with a wry smile.
The death of Long Meng and others can be said to be their own fault. Originally, the major branches that entered the Wu Tomb would not kill the practitioners of other branches. As a result, the strong men of their three major branches joined forces to deal with Yang Qi, and eventually they died in the Wu Tomb. Long Teng had no sympathy for the death of Long Meng and others. The only pity was the death of Yang Qi. With the talent and potential shown by Yang Qi, once the damaged bloodline power is restored, it will not be difficult for him to enter the Wu Emperor realm in the future.
Hearing this, Long Kun's expression suddenly became somewhat ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "Our prince and all the nine-star martial emperor-level clansmen have already perished, so please be merciful, Your Highness!"
"He deserves to die after secretly killing people." The Martial Emperor said with a cold smile.
The Long clan has too many branches. Even if the large branches have reached a consensus not to kill anyone in the Martial Tomb, the life-and-death fight that breaks out in the Martial Tomb is still inevitable. It's just that it's relatively rare for all the Nine-Star Martial Emperor-level practitioners from branches close to the King level to die like this time.
As soon as these words were spoken, Long Kun's face suddenly changed from blue to red. He could still refute Long Teng's words, but the Martial Emperor in front of him was definitely not something he could refute, so he could only endure it.
"They are all members of the Long clan. If they kill us secretly, it will be our Long clan that will suffer the loss in the end." Long Teng glanced at the three major branches and then sighed, "A cultivator whose bloodline power is damaged and who can still pass the eighth floor of the Demon Dragon Palace is also a big loss for our Long clan."
Demon Dragon Palace
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several Martial Emperors changed. As Martial Emperor practitioners of the royal lineage, they naturally knew what the Demon Dragon Palace meant.
The high-level martial emperor in the lead looked at Long Teng and asked anxiously, "Did you encounter the Demon Dragon Palace this time?"
"Yes!"
Long Teng nodded and continued, "But none of us have made it past the ninth floor."
Several Martial Emperors heard this, but they were not surprised at all. Is it so easy to pass through the ninth floor of the Demon Dragon Palace? In the history of the entire Long family, only one person has passed through it! If anyone among Long Teng and others could pass through the ninth floor of the Demon Dragon Palace, it would be strange.
"What about the eighth level?" the high-level Martial Emperor asked hurriedly.
Long Teng and others were unable to pass the ninth floor, but with their talent and potential, there should still be great hope for them to pass the eighth floor.
"There are four people who have made it through the eighth floor. In addition to Long Xin and me, there is Long Meng from the lineage of the King of Zhenbei, and the other one is Long Qi." Long Teng did not hide anything and continued, "Except for Long Xin and me, Long Meng and Long Qi have already died, and Long Qi made it through the eighth floor with his bloodline power damaged."
"What?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several Martial Emperors suddenly changed. It was not only because the cultivator named Long Qi had passed through the eighth floor of the Demon Dragon Palace with damaged bloodline power, but what made them even more regretful was that the two cultivators who had passed through the eighth floor of the Demon Dragon Palace actually died like this
Just as Long Teng said, this is definitely a huge loss for the Long family!
The high-ranking Martial Emperor's face darkened, and he looked at Long Teng and asked, "What on earth happened in the Martial Tomb?"
If only some ordinary practitioners had died, they would not have cared too much, but now the ones who died were two practitioners who had once passed the eighth level of the Demon Dragon Palace. Even those who were at the Martial Emperor level felt heartbroken.
Upon hearing this, Long Teng immediately told Long Meng and the others that they had surrounded and killed Yang Qi, and that the result might be that both of them would die.
"A nine-star martial emperor whose bloodline power is damaged but who is good at the soul, and who may be a cultivator from a hidden family?"
After listening to Long Teng's narration, the high-level Martial Emperor's expression suddenly changed. In his memory, there was no such practitioner among the practitioners who entered the Martial Tomb this time.
"I already know about this. You guys can leave first." The high-level Martial Emperor said calmly.
Um
Long Teng was stunned. The high-level Martial Emperor was heartbroken over the death of Yang Qi and others just a moment ago, but now he seemed to not care at all. What was going on
"yes."
Although they were curious, Long Teng and the others did not linger any longer. After bidding farewell to the other martial emperors, they left one after another. (To be continued)
