In the gathering hall of top 3 family of the Han realm,
"The tomb of heavenly emperor has been opened." A old man wearing golden and black robe spoke.
"It's a pity that only cultivators below nascent soul can enter the tomb." Another old man replied.
"We must secure these for our family's best prodigy." A middle aged man replied.
They are the ancestors of the top 3 family of the Han realm. Bai family, Yun family and Feng family. They are at peak nascent soul stage but they have no chance of breaking through to divine manifestation stage because they don't have long life to live.
They knew about the inheritance of heavenly emperor all along and have been preparing in quiet.
Mo Chuang's team and Xiao Tian were approaching the tomb together. Suddenly some essence gathering stage cultivators stopped them.
"This place is already occupied by the Bai, Yun and Feng family." One of the guards said while making disgusted expression.
"What right do you have to occupy this place as your own? I'm the young master of Xiao family and I still not qualified to enter?" Xiao Tian replied.
"You are the young master of Xiao family? So what it's nothing compared to the top 3 family of the entire Han realm." The guard replied.
"But I'll give some face to old master of Xiao family and I can let you enter this place but others must stay behind." The guard said. "What do you mean by that?" Mo Chuang asked.
"Isn't it obvious? You guys are following Young master Xiao that means you guys are from lower family than Xiao family so you guys are not qualified to enter this place." The guard replied.
Xiao Tian panicked when he heard this because Mo Chuang wasn't someone simple and what more he wad from the Xian realm and the 2 guards he brought have the cultivation which can defy heaven's will of this realm.
Each realm has it's own heaven's will. The lower the realm the weaker the heaven's will and the higher the realm the stronger the heaven's will. But the heaven's will was all controlled by a supreme being in much much high realm.
"How dare you do you even know who he is?" Xiao Tian asked as he was worried that the entire Han realm might be wiped out today.
"Of course we don't. How can we know someone as lowly as him." The guard replied as the other guards started laughing.
"You-" Xiao Tian was about to say something but Mo Chuang interrupted. Mo Chuang said, "It's true that we are from lower family but I'm at Essence gathering stage and I wish to join the Bai family."
"But I also want to help Bai family achieve this treasure so if you coule let me enter lord Bai would be happy from your work." Mo Chuang said.
The guards liked his words and thought, "What he is saying is actually true and if it was really the case then we would get heavy reward from lord Bai." And after thinking for a moment they said, "What you said does make sense but first we have to ask our superior if we should let you enter or not."
"I'm very grateful for your work." Mo Chuang said as he cupped his hands. The guards used an artifact which could help one to transmit sound from one place to another. It was called Transmission jade.
After some time the guards approved Mo Chuang's team to enter as well. When Mo Chuang and Xiao Tian passed the guards then they remembered, "Wait he said that he wanted to help Bai family get the treasure but we never mentioned anything about treasure nor anyone else knew about it."
As they were thinking about it their body was split in two. Lei Yun then said, "Never disrespect my master." Lin Hao then said, "You are too naive if it was me I would've tortured these guards so badly that they will regret their entire life.
"Are you trying to say I am lower than you?" Lei Yun said with angry expression. "So what if I am?" Lin Hao also replied with dominating expression.
"Do you guys want to die?" Suddenly they heard a voice in their transmission jade. Mo Chuang was furious from their childish act.
"Sorry master, it's our fault!" Lei Yun and Lin Hao replied while kneeling. "Sigh, leave it and go according to our plan." Mo Chuang replied

"As you wish master!" They both replied. After the connection cut off they took out the storage ring of the guards and their cloths. They took out transmission jade from the storage ring.
After disguising themselves as guards they concealed their cultivation to essence gathering stage. They used the transmission jade of the guards to contact one of the family elder of Bai family.
"Lord Shun there are some invaders who got through us, one of them is from Xiao family and the other is from Chu family." Lei Yun said.
"Hmph, who gave Xiao family and Chu family the guts to ignore the top 3 family's rule." Bai Shun replied. "Don't worry I'll send some guards to catch them." Bai Shun said.
"Lord Shun we just got informed that we should those above foundation establishment cultivators enter this tomb and if they managed to get something they can enter one of the top family." Lei Yun said.
"What? Lord Bai didn't inform me about that... Well if it's true then do as he says." Bai Shun replied.
"Ok lord Shun!" Lei Yun then cut off the connection. "No matter what i have to admit you are good at lying." Lin Hao said as he was amazed by her.
"It's nothing." She ignored him as she saw many cultivators coming towards them. "Only above foundation establishment must enter and this rume was set by top 3 family." Lin Hao said as he had the exact expression those guards had.
"You heard the guards only above foundation establishment can enter." The leader of the cultivator groups said.
Total of 13 foundation establishment, 7 spirit refining, 2 Essence gathering and 1 core formation stage cultivator entered the tomb. Lei Yun and Lin Hao started repeating this.
In the tomb,
"Young master Xiao it seems we have to be separated as I like working alone." Mo Chuang said.
"Ahh that's a shame I thought we could work together but leave it i guess I can't force you your excellency." Xiao Tian replied. "Xiao Tian!" Suddenly Xiao Tian heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Oh Chu Hao, why are you here." Xiao Tian immediately recognised him. He was Chu Hao the young master of the Chu family of Xuanyuan continent and the sworn brother of Xiao Tian.
Mo Chuang left as he didn't wanted to get more involved with them. Xiao Tian noticed him leaving but didn't dare to stop him so he let him leave.
"Oh I forgot to ask, how did you enter?" Xiao Tian asked, "When I was entering guards stopped me but they barely let me enter because I wad the young master of Xiao family." He said.
"Well same thing happened to me first they weren't letting me enter but after I said I was from Chu family they let me enter." Chu Hao said.
"Furthermore what's this tomb about?" Xiao Tian asked. "I also don't know but I heard that this is the tomb of the heavenly emperor who once reached a stage which one could only dream of." Chu Hao replied.
Suddenly some peak essence gathering stage cultivators came at high speed and grabbed Chu Hao and Xiao Tian.
"What are you doing?" Chu Hao shouted. "It's an order from lord Shun to capture the invaders." One of the cultivator replied.
"What? What do you mean by invader? I was permitted by the guards to enter this tomb!" Xiao Tian said. "Dont lie! Those guards told lord Shun that you are the invaders." The cultivators replied.
Everyone there started looking at them and started gossiping. Xiao Tian and Chu Hao didn't wanted to tarnish their family's reputation so they agreed on cooperating.
"Alright we will go with you but if we are proven innocent you guys must apologize to us." Chu Hao said. The cultivators agreed as they knew that the information can't be false if it was directly from an elder of Bai family.
The cultivators then used sealing spell and sealed the cultivation of both of them. They were brought to Bai Shun's Adobe.
Bai Shun said, "So you small fries got so much guts that you are gonna invade the top 3 family's occupied place?"
"Lord Shun you got it all wrong the guards actually permitted us to enter the tomb." Xiao Tian said.
"You dare lie Infront of me?" Bai Shun said these as he released his aura and killing them mercilessly. "Go and announce the true purpose of this tomb" Bai Shun ordered the cultivators
In the entrance of the tomb,
Many cultivators below nascent soul stage and above foundation establishment were gathered here. Mo Chuang was also there as he stood there with the clones of Lei Yun.
Before sending her off Mo Chuang told her to create some clones for him and make them have cultivation of core formation stage. He prepared total of 40 core formation
clones.Suddenly the cultivators came with their artifact.
"From the grace of the top 3 family we now announce that this tomb contains the inheritance of Heavenly emperor and whoever gets the inheritance will be treasured as the holy cultivator of our realm." The essence gathering cultivator said.
"We now officially announce that it's free to enter this tomb at your own risk." He said, "It starts...Now!"
As soon as he said this everyone began using their artifact to enter the tomb as soon as possible. But Mo Chuang and the clones of Lei Yun just waited.
Other cultivators were surprised by that because having more than 30 core formation stage cultivator already means that they are not that simple but what more they were all following the orders of an essence gathering stage cultivator.
This fact made everyone think that Mo Chuang was someone from upper realm but didn't dare to approach them because before when a core formation stage cultivator made fun of Mo Chuang for his essence gathering stage cultivation he was killed in a blink of an eye.
This made them even more terrified of them. They started ignoring Mo Chuang and started heading to the tomb because once they get the inheritance what if Mo Chuang is from upper realm.
"Master Mo it's going to be late if we don't start now....Just what exactly are you waiting for?" One of the clone said. "Hahaha just wait for it." Mo Chuang replied.
As soon as he said this he got message in his transmission jade from Lin Hao, "Master the sealing array is constructed now noone below heaven's ascendancy stage can escape this continent."
Lin Hao was actually expert in things like alchemy and array constructing and that's what made him useful for Mo Chuang.
After hearing this Mo Chuang said, "It's finally time for us to act." As soon as he said this he then activated the array and started approaching the tomb.
