Chapter 667
Perhaps the main characters had sensed the fierceness of the imminent battle between the Qionghua Faction and the demon realm . On one side was their best friend Liu Mengli, and on the other side was Qionghua, which hadn’t treated them well and seemed to have used them as chess pieces, but it was still Murong Ziying’s faction .
When they returned, regardless if they returned to the demon realm or Qionghua, they would be in danger . Han Lingsha wanted to steal the item to help her friends, but they didn’t want her to take the risk all by herself . In the end, Murong Ziying and Yun Tianhe decided to accompany her to the Temple of the Sky .
The Temple of the Sky was guarded by heavenly soldiers, which meant that regardless of who was buried in the tomb, it was a highest-ranked burial place that few existences in the whole world, both in heaven and on earth, could enjoy .
The players in the old shops had been to the outer range of the ghost realm in the Legend of Sword and Fairy 3, so this trip to the Inconstant Hall in the ghost realm wasn’t something too novel for them .
But the situation was different this time .
In the Yuanyang City Shop, Zong Wu, Gu Tingyun, and the others were sitting on the couches in the lounge area . While stuffing a couple of hot strips into his mouth, Zong Wu stared at the screen with widened eyes . “This is so grand…”
“Whose tomb is this?” Gu Tingyu also widened his eyes .
The players in the new shop didn’t quite understand the situation but were shocked by the name ‘Temple of the Sky’, the sight of this grand structure, and the big scale of the tomb .
“Is this a god’s tomb?!”
Perhaps it wasn’t a tomb, and the entity buried in the tomb wasn’t human, but it must be an ancient relic of the highest level!
Different from the original version, the system version required the players to sneak in except for the swift fight against the soldiers at the entrance . After all, if they exposed themselves and caused chaos before they got close to the treasure, they wouldn’t be able to fight their way out and would be killed even if they had ten such teams .
Obviously, Mr . Fang was quite familiar with the map . By dodging the guards, he soon led his companions to the palace in the southern corner of the Temple of the Sky .
The Temple of the Sky was a grand tomb hovering in the sky, and it was so large that people couldn’t see the end with one glance . Of course, Yun Tianhe and the others couldn’t tour every corner of this place .
On the topic of the Temple of the Sky, Han Lingsha’s grandfather had to be mentioned . Coming from a family of tomb thieves, her grandfather had had the chance to enter this place due to great fortune . After he returned, he seemed to have gone crazy and murmured to himself all the time .
Still, some members of the family got some clues from his few mentions of this trip . It seemed that Han Lingsha’s grandfather only ventured into a small part of the huge tomb, which was like the tip of an iceberg . However, in this small corner, he had seen an unimaginable treasure – the Hou Yi Sun-Shooting Bow!
According to legends, there had once been ten suns in the sky, and people in the human world suffered greatly because of them . Godly Archer Hou Yi shot down nine suns and thus eased the drought on the land and saved many people .
The main characters couldn’t see any sources of light in the ancient palace, but soft light illuminated the interior . The lighting was perfect, neither blindingly bright nor dim .
Shaped like an upside-down tower, the interior of the southern palace had no guards, but the main characters had to be careful of the restriction arrays and traps while they ventured down .
After walking down to the ground level, they could see a wide high platform in the great hall . The ancient long bow was hovering over the platform silently .

It seemed like no one was guarding it, and there were no protective measures .
The scene of nine suns in the sky and the blazing fire were engraved on the green-jade-like stone surface of the bow .
In one glance, the scene seemed to be the background of the ancient bow . For one instant, it brought the audience back to the distant ancient time .
It just hung there silently, but people could feel the streak of powerful spiritual essence in it .
They seemed to hear the hoarse roars and yells from that era of ten suns .
“Wow-!” The elves screamed . Even Elder Sewell covered her mouth, trying to suppress her thrill and shock that were pouring out .
For elves, the bow was one of their inheritance weapons since ancient times, and all of them were great archers . Although they didn’t know the history of this bow, they could still vaguely sense the grand presence from this ancient and elegant long bow at this moment .
“She came here to steal this bow and give it to Tianhe?”
Humans only had a short lifespan of about several dozens of years, but even this short lifespan was a luxury for Han Lingsha . “Regardless of how many days are left in my life, I want you to remember me as your good friend . Okay?”

At this moment, Yun Tianhe and Han Lingsha’s feelings toward each other might have gone beyond friendship, but they treated these feelings as a part of their friendship and wanted to remember each other forever .
Perhaps it was due to fate, the treasure in the Temple of the Sky happened to be a perfect weapon for Yun Tianhe . Having no good gift for Murong Ziying, Han Lingsha apologized to him .
“I don’t care about godly weapons, but you must keep your promise and stop doing tomb thefts which will further shorten your life,” Murong Ziying said, “I don’t approve of what we do today, but I’m your friend, and I will do anything for you guys and bear any consequences for taking this bow . ”
At a young age, these people weren’t greedy and didn’t scheme for any personal interests, which made their friendship even more pure and precious .
In fact, Han Lingsha had given Ziying a nine-dragon silk sword tassel which was a royal item, a perfect gift for him since he had been a royal member of the Yan Nation before he joined the Qionghua Faction . She had pushed it into his hand to bribe ‘Uncle-Master Ziying’, and Murong Ziying hadn’t paid much attention to it at that time . Now that he thought about it, he suddenly found this thing quite precious due to their friendship .
Murong Ziying suddenly turned silent .
At this moment, all the players watching the scene turned silent as well .
“Then… could it be that they’ll take the godly bow just like that?” Su Tianji asked in bafflement when she watched Han Lingsha go over to take the bow .
At this moment, a voice came from the void . “Sinner! Put down the Hou Yi Sun-Shooting Bow right now!”

A god who had a human head, a pair of bird wings, and was wearing a golden headpiece suddenly appeared before them . “I’m Immortal General Gou Mang, and I’m guarding the Temple of the Sky . ”
Su Tianji was at a loss for words .
Song Qingfeng said, “Elder Su jinxed it…”
“Oh! It’s not my fault!” Su Tianji rebutted, “Everyone knows that this place must be guarded by someone…”
Then, she stared at Immortal General Gou Mang and asked, “What god is this one?!”
Nalan Mingxue said, “Immortal General… Is he on the same level as Fei Peng?”
A fan of stories and plots, Shen Qingqing knew the story well and made a reasonable speculation, “They should be on the same level, but I’m afraid that this one is less powerful since Fei Peng is the No . 1 Immortal General . ”
Hearing her appraisal, others felt less scared and heaved a sigh of relief . Although he still seemed powerful, he didn’t seem that terrifying anymore .
However, in the new shop, the players watching the scene took a few steps backward and said, “There’s a god in this place?!”
What’s wrong with this world?! Even a tomb needs to be guarded by a god?!
