The Early Bird

Yan Ling rubbed her eyes.

When she finally recognized Su Tong, she spoke up, "Su Tong? What's going on? It's late at night!"

"Come with me!" Su Tong said, not giving Yan Ling a chance to react, and pulled her outside.

"Hey! Where are we going in the middle of the night?" Yan Ling was being dragged by Su Tong.

She quickly asked.

"Do you know where the ancient tomb is?" Su Tong didn't answer, only countered with a question.

"I do, didn't we talk about it during the day? Are we going to the ancient tomb now? Did I sleep for half a month?"

After hearing Su Tong's words, Yan Ling was stunned.

Then she quickly woke up.

Su Tong: "..."

This Yan Ling seems a bit unreliable.

Should I just leave her here?

At this moment, Su Tong's heart had a slight desire to break the promise.

"But wait, it's still nighttime now. The ancient tomb doesn't open until half a month later. What are we doing now?"

Yan Ling woke up and realized that she couldn't have slept for half a month.

She asked.

"Just come with me. If you don't want to go, I'll go by myself!" Su Tong didn't explain.

Pointless talk? Wait until half a month later when various forces arrive and then compete?

Su Tong didn't have that kind of time.

Since the barrier hasn't completely disappeared, let's try if we can enter!

"Ah? I... I'll go!" Although Yan Ling didn't know what Su Tong wanted to do in the ancient tomb at this time.

She still wanted to go with Su Tong.

"Then let's go!" Su Tong said, lightly tapping the ground with her toes, and instantly soared into the air.

Yan Ling stared blankly at Su Tong flying up and said, "This... a Spirit Realm expert?"

As everyone knows, only Spirit Realm experts can fly without relying on treasures.

And obviously, the Su Tong in front of her has already stepped into the Spirit Realm.

"Hey, I can't fly, and I don't have any treasures!" Yan Ling realized this and shouted.

Upon hearing this, Su Tong stopped and looked at Yan Ling on the ground, feeling a bit helpless, "Well, why don't you just tell me the location then!"

But talk is talk, Su Tong still came down, and then hugged Yan Ling by the waist.

With a light tap of her toes, the two of them flew up into the sky.

"Wow, I didn't expect you to be so young and already a Spirit Realm expert!" Yan Ling exclaimed after flying up into the sky.

She didn't expect Su Tong to be a Spirit Realm expert.

Su Tong didn't speak, she flew directly forward.

And at this moment, Su Tong let go.

"Ah!" Yan Ling was caught off guard and fell down.

"Su Tong, what are you doing!" Yan Ling shouted.

But at this moment, a purple light swept by and caught her.

"Huh! Isn't this Little Lei?" Yan Ling curiously looked at the thing holding her, a Lei Jing Beast.

There are quite a few people who can recognize the existence of a Lei Jing Beast.

At that moment, Su Tong landed directly on the body of the Lei Jing Beast.

Yan Ling spoke softly, "Where is the ancient tomb?"

"In... the east!" replied Yan Ling, glancing at Su Tong who stood steadily on the Lei Jing Beast. She blushed, recalling the scene just now.

Then she pointed towards the east and said, "Little Lei, let's go!"

Su Tong uttered a word to the Lei Jing Beast beneath her feet.

"Roar!"

The Lei Jing Beast let out a low roar.

Then it transformed into a purple light and dashed towards the east.

During the journey, Su Tong and Yan Ling remained silent.

Initially, Yan Ling asked Su Tong a few questions about why she wanted to go to the ancient tomb.

But since Su Tong did not answer, Yan Ling gave up.

However, being clever, she could still guess that Su Tong intended to take a look at the ancient tomb first.

Yet, Yan Ling didn't hold much hope for it.

After all, it was a barrier left behind by a Spirit Realm expert. Even though it had weakened significantly over time, it was still not something a Spiritual Void Realm cultivator could break.

Previously, the two sects from Fallen Maple City had sent their own Spiritual Void Realm experts, but they returned empty-handed.

Therefore, even though Su Tong's strength was at the Spiritual Void Realm, Yan Ling believed there was no way to open it.

"It's in the mountains below us!"

After a while, Yan Ling spoke up.

By now, they had reached their destination, the burial ground of the Spirit Realm expert.

"Little Lei, go down!" Su Tong commanded the Lei Jing Beast.

The Lei Jing Beast descended directly towards the mountain below.

"The ancient tomb is in a nearby mountain. It should be the entire mountain that contains the tomb. Previously, it remained undiscovered because the barrier was still strong, making it appear like an ordinary mountain," explained Yan Ling.

The presence of the barrier had kept this burial ground of the Spirit Realm expert hidden for over thirty thousand years.

However, no matter how powerful a person was, the barriers they set up would eventually disappear over time.

And now was the time for the barrier set up by the Spirit Realm expert to start fading away.

"Okay, let's go!" Su Tong nodded and walked ahead.

Yan Ling didn't hesitate and followed suit.

She wasn't afraid, but rather curious about the burial ground.

She was even more curious if Su Tong had a way to enter the tomb.

If that was the case, they would have the advantage of being the first ones to enter, and all the treasures inside would be theirs.

After walking for a while, Su Tong felt a powerful force.

This force wasn't just ordinary spiritual power; it was the power emanating from the barrier.

"Indeed, the Spirit Realm expert was powerful. The barrier they set up still possesses such strong spiritual power after thirty thousand years," Su Tong remarked, sensing that immense power.

This was the strength of a Spirit Realm expert.

Although Su Tong had already reached the Spiritual Void Realm, there was still a significant gap between her and the Spirit Realm.

Otherwise, when the burial ground was discovered, it would have been broken by the Spiritual Void Realm cultivators from Fallen Maple City.

However, while others couldn't open it, Su Tong wanted to give it a try.

The formidable barrier of the Hidden Spirit Sect was easily opened by Su Tong. Perhaps he could also try his luck with this other barrier.

Before long, Su Tong and Yan Ling arrived in front of the barrier.

Without hesitation, Su Tong gathered a powerful surge of spiritual energy in his fist and struck the barrier with full force.

"Boom!"

A loud noise echoed.

Ripples spread across the surface of the barrier.

However, there was no sign of it shattering.

Of course, Su Tong didn't really expect his punch to have any effect. It was just a test.

"You see, I told you it's impossible!" Yan Ling spoke up.

But Su Tong didn't respond. He simply looked at the barrier, then gently placed his hand on it and spoke slowly.
