The secret room where the star spirits hide is not big, but the surrounding walls are all made of thick rocks, and there are secret passages leading to other places, which look dim and eerie under the candlelight.
Similar secret rooms and passages are common in many aristocratic mansions and wealthy people's homes. They are reserved as escape routes to avoid disasters. They don't need to be gorgeous and beautiful, as long as they are secretive and safe enough.
But what makes this secret room unique is that there are countless rune patterns etched on the walls and floors. The rune lines filled with precious materials form complex patterns, especially the dense runes on the top wall.
, simply comparable to the stars in the sky!
Even the surface of the wooden door that had just been closed behind him was still densely covered with dark gold runes.
Qin Yun is very accomplished in talismans, but he can barely distinguish the functions of a few talisman diagrams, and knows that this secret room has been set up as a powerful magic circle.[
As for the function of the magic circle, he really couldn't see through it.
"This is the Fantasy Star Array"
Star Spirit easily saw Qin Yun's surprise and confusion, and smiled sweetly and said: "The star array used by ancient Qi Refining Masters to activate the power of stars. Only with the help of the power of stars can the divine power of the nine-star array plate be fully activated.
Come out and help us break through the realm of supernatural powers!"
"Also, it can also block the breath of the artifact, so you can take out the formation plate with confidence."
After listening to Xing Ling's explanation, Qin Yun was already convinced of her careful thinking and thorough preparation.
However, being cautious, he took out the four boxes stored in the Qiankun space one by one, placed them on the small wooden table, and asked: "Will the Witch Clan find this place?"
This secret room belongs to the family where Xing Ling originally hid in disguise. The mansion is not far from the Witch God Palace.
Xingling chuckled and said: "Don't worry, I have already sent the family out of the city. Even if others break in, they will not be able to search the entrance to the secret room. As for the waterway below, the secret passage is safer. If they really find out, we will have it long ago."
It’s not here anymore!”
Qin Yun was completely relieved and began to study the four boxes on the table that he had ventured to snatch.
The boxes inlaid with gold threads were locked with secret locks, but of course this small obstacle could not hinder Qin Yun. He reached out and held one, ready to open it with brute force.
"Wait, let me come!"
Xing Ling stopped Qin Yun's action. She pulled out the silver hairpin stuck on her head with her backhand, inserted the sharp head of the hairpin into the lock, and gently moved it up and down a few times.
There was only a "click" sound, and the lid of the box opened upwards on its own, revealing the contents inside.
Placed inside this box is a silver-white pearl the size of a baby's fist. It is round and crystal clear. The bead body emits a soft light, and a cold breath spurts out as the lid of the box is opened.
Although it was not the nine-star array he expected, Qin Yun couldn't help but be moved by it: "Good guy"
He has the Nine-Yang Magic to protect his body, and he can still feel the chilling energy coming from the silver beads, which is definitely not a power that ordinary crystal beads can possess.
Star Spirit stretched out his jade fingers to pick up the silver bead, and praised: "This is the bead of a top-level dragon beast. It has at least a thousand years of fire. It is only one step away from being able to concentrate and transform into a dragon. The Wumen's thousands of years of accumulation is indeed extraordinary."
The Star Spirit's knowledge is so vast, even if she wants to say something good, it is definitely a priceless treasure.
The second and third boxes were quickly opened. They were not artifacts, but they were rare and rare treasures that could be said to be priceless.[
Looking at the last unopened box, Qin Yun became a little nervous. If the nine-star array was not inside, then the most important goal the two of them wanted to achieve would be completely defeated.
The Witch Clan and the Witch Sect have suffered such a big loss, so their defense efforts must be doubled. Unless the City of Witches can be conquered, it will be absolutely impossible to seize the artifact again.
Click!
The fourth and last box was opened by the star spirit, and a cold light flashed in front of Qin Yun's eyes.
The next moment, he took a long breath.
A metal disk with a diameter of seven or eight inches was quietly placed at the bottom of the wooden box. It showed a rare dark blue color, and the uneven surface was engraved with finely etched runes, with nine stars as bright as stars.
The crystal beads are evenly inlaid on it, connecting all the lines!
Nine-star formation disk, ancient artifact!
Star Spirit reached out and took it out, with a thrilling light shining in his eyes, and whispered softly: "We succeeded."
Yes, it worked!
This artifact that has been owned by the Witch Clan for thousands of years has finally fallen into their hands!
"We can take action until evening!"
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. They succeeded in taking this risk and really made a lot of money!
While Qin Yun and Xing Ling were enjoying the joy of victory, there was a chaotic scene in the City of Witches.
A large number of samurai, warriors and even wizards were running around the city like headless flies. They stopped every suspicious person for interrogation and turned the area around the two witch palaces upside down.
The flying dog jumps but it is a reward.
The treasures and sacrificial implements used by the Wumen to worship heaven were actually blocked from the road and taken away. The golden-armored warriors who represented the glory of the Wushen Palace suffered heavy casualties, and even one of the powerful Huagang warriors was lost. This was simply a naked humiliation to the Wumen and the Wu clan.
.
The entire Wumen was shaken. The top management sent a large number of warriors to assist the Wu Clan city guards in hunting down the suspects. As a result, the originally enthusiastic atmosphere of the expedition in the city disappeared and was replaced by a shuddering tension.
On the top floor of the highest white tower of the Witch God Palace, the black-robed leader of the Witch Sect sat cross-legged on the brocade mat. His old face showed an unconcealed haggardness, but his blue eyes contained deep anger.
An old wizard in white robes with a sinister expression sat across from him, and there were two warriors with expressions beside him. The atmosphere in the room was extremely depressing.
The old wizard in white robe suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I can't find the artifact."
The witch master didn't seem to be surprised and said calmly: "They are well prepared. They can use the Sumeru Ring to isolate the breath of the artifact, but it is certain that they are still in the city."
A warrior next to him coughed and said: "My lord, the news just came that no enemy was found around the place where the fighting took place. It is guessed that the enemy is probably hiding in the sewers, and shadow warriors have been sent in to search."
The witch leader sighed and said: "We were too careless and underestimated the enemy. If their target is me this time, maybe" [
He didn't say anything else, but everyone present could understand, because the witch master who had just completed the heaven-sacrifice ceremony was at his weakest!
