~7 min read 1,298 words

And with such power, she could also complete the first step of the resurrection state, thereby walking forward step by step.

In the end, she could find the method for true resurrection, or after finding the Dust-Suppressing Pearl, the Queen of Jingjue would be completely resurrected.

The one who was most shocked and uncertain about this matter was Wang Canghai, who was watching the live broadcast. As long as it involved the situation of the Dust-Suppressing Pearl, he couldn't make himself calm down.

Even if he already had such thoughts before, thinking that he could still deal with Zhang Lin, and even thinking that he had misjudged Zhang Lin at the beginning.

Zhang Lin himself had no concept of becoming an immortal, but now hearing what Zhang Lin said, everything had deviated from the concept he wanted.

Zhang Lin didn't know whether becoming an immortal existed or not, or was certain that becoming an immortal didn't exist. Now, the one point Wang Canghai understood very clearly was that regardless of whether Zhang Lin believed in the existence of becoming an immortal, he had missed a very important thing from the beginning.

That was the mask. Actually, in Wang Canghai's repeated struggles, he had also been regretting—regretting why he didn't continue to dig further when he arrived at the Ancient City of Jingjue.

A part of it came from Wang Canghai's own fear, because at that time, the manpower he could use was already running low.

It was only by using the adjustment of the imaginary space that he could reach the interior of the Ancient City of Jingjue.

Under this premise, Wang Canghai had to make other choices; he didn't dare to approach the Queen of Jingjue's coffin, and even when he reached the Qianjin Gate, he just found a corresponding laboratory.

In the end, he still used the imaginary space and stayed in this laboratory for several years.

And during these years, he kept studying those things from before and didn't look for the Dust-Suppressing Pearl. Afterward, Wang Canghai didn't have the corresponding opportunity.

The door to the imaginary space itself was sealed. If he wanted to go in, he could only rely on manpower to force a breakthrough, which is like the second archaeological team now, entering the Ancient City of Jingjue from the main hall.

That method was very difficult for Wang Canghai at that time. This is also the reason why Wang Canghai did not make such a choice.

At that time, Wang Canghai didn't feel anything unusual. He had opened countless coffins and discovered countless secrets in his life, and he was also certain that the Dust-Suppressing Pearl was definitely not inside the Queen of Jingjue's coffin.

Even if he had studied the imaginary space thoroughly, he would never have thought that the Queen of Jingjue used the connection of the imaginary space itself to open a door in her own coffin.

Even if he had known at that time, he probably wouldn't have dared to gamble, because he couldn't be certain that his power could completely defeat the Corpse Fragrant Konjac, or because he hadn't found the antidote.

And today, many years later, Wang Canghai wants to reopen the door to the Ancient City of Jingjue, because according to his time calculations, he has calculated that the imaginary space itself can be completely opened.

He used the route from the past to tell the man in the suit, and after the man in the suit relayed it to Jack, they used the bridge of the imaginary space to arrive at the Ancient City of Jingjue without passing through the main hall, to look for the Queen of Jingjue's coffin.

Then, after opening the coffin, he hoped to find the Dust-Suppressing Pearl, but now Wang Canghai realized that he had overlooked an important thing!

If he had arrived at the Ancient City of Jingjue at that time, even if it meant sacrificing some manpower and some of his research time to study the Queen of Jingjue's coffin properly,

perhaps he wouldn't have fallen into this awkward situation today. This is also why Zhang Lin is confident that he can definitely defeat Wang Canghai.

Wang Canghai's timeline was ahead, but he wasted all these hundred years.

When he obtained eternal life at the beginning, since he wanted to become an immortal, Wang Canghai's ultimate goal was the Dust-Suppressing Pearl, but he didn't confirm this answer particularly confidently.

Instead, he kept doing other related research, which is the main reason why Wang Canghai is destined to fail today.

Thinking of this, Wang Canghai couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then a murderous look suddenly appeared in his eyes, which had been calm as an ancient well.

He didn't know where to vent this anger. When the man in the suit saw this killing intent exposed, he suddenly stepped back subconsciously.

He understood that Wang Canghai watching Zhang Lin say this at this moment was absolutely the most furious, and this anger didn't just come from Zhang Lin, but also from himself.

Under this premise, the man in the suit had to avoid his edge; he didn't even dare to breathe.

He deliberately held his breath, hoping Wang Canghai wouldn't notice him. If Wang Canghai really couldn't control himself next, unable to control his anger, he might directly twist his neck.

Thinking of this, the man in the suit deliberately stepped back again, and even hid his footsteps along with it. It's just that the man in the suit still couldn't suppress the violent beating of his heart caused by extreme fear.

He thought to himself, if only he could make his heart stop beating too.

When people are accompanied by extreme fear, they always have particularly stupid ideas. The man in the suit is like this now.

He didn't know what Wang Canghai was thinking, but at least after confirming that the other party's anger was soaring to the sky, he felt that this approach could save his life.

Wang Canghai became more and more angry, and was about to explode. Cold sweat had already flowed down the man in the suit, covering his forehead.

But just the next moment, Wang Canghai relaxed, as if he had thought of some other situation, or because of the situation in front of him, he thought he had misjudged.

Regardless, the man in the suit still felt that he had picked up a life. Wang Canghai continued to watch the live broadcast. At this time, he kept telling himself in his heart that he must absolutely not worry about the past anymore.

Even if he had found the coffin at that time, perhaps the power of the Dust-Suppressing Pearl carried on the Queen of Jingjue's mask would not have been enough for him to complete his dream of becoming an immortal.

It was even possible that these powers couldn't be stripped off. Could it be that he had to put on the mask himself and become the Queen of Jingjue?

But Wang Canghai and Zhang Lin had both made such judgments before: without the corresponding bloodline, putting on the mask would definitely turn one into a monster, even if Wang Canghai was already immortal, his body couldn't avoid this situation.

Now the power carried by the mask comes from the Queen of Jingjue herself and the residual power carried by the Dust-Suppressing Pearl. After learning this, the three people in the second archaeological team all fell into a long silence.

Originally, Hu Bayi wanted to express some personal opinions, but with the situation that followed and the previous experiences, as well as his wild imagination and falling into that inexplicable state, his psychological burden was very heavy.

Hu Bayi felt that he should calm down.
