Chapter 183: Entering the Emperor’s Tomb
The interior of the Wuhuang Tomb, accessed through a collapsed crevice in the cliff, was complete darkness, not a single speck of light.
Unlike the Guangjianling of the Guangxia Jiankuai that Seon Woo-jin had entered before, the interior of the Wuhuang Tomb contained no light source whatsoever.
Naturally, the only ones who could move without difficulty in such complete darkness were Seolpung and Seon Woo-jin, along with Heukpyo, who for some reason continued to stick close to Seon Woo-jin.
Although Bi Sa-yeong had also cultivated his inner vision considerably, his level was still insufficient to move freely in darkness of this magnitude.
So there was no need to mention Jeung-chil or Ya Un-hyang.
Thud!
Jeung-chil’s head bumped lightly against the stone wall, and he muttered under his breath.
“Ugh! How am I supposed to move around in a place like this without any light?!”
Such grumbling was habitual for him, but he was undeniably right.
The problem was that even if he couldn’t see ahead, he couldn’t light a torch.
Lighting a torch in this pitch-black cave would make the light far too bright.
Everyone knows how clearly a single beam of light stands out in the darkness, so they couldn’t risk lighting a torch and exposing themselves to the enemy.
It was a dilemma.
But Seon Woo-jin had anticipated this possibility from the moment he set his sights on the Wuhuang Tomb.
He immediately opened his backpack and pulled out an item he had packed just in case it might be needed.
