Three hundred and ninetieth eight chapters twelve o'clock gate
When everyone was shocked, they discovered that the flames did not harm them at all, but made them feel comfortable, as if they were bathed in the spring breeze.
A person appeared above the head of the double-winged tiger beast. The double-winged tiger beast was lying on the ground with its head bowed. The man's eyes were patrolling the convoy and he did not speak.
"Who are you, your Excellency, and why do you want to block the way of our caravan?" Master Zheng stepped forward and asked.
"Chen Yuanchang from the King's Palace is here to greet the Masked Marquis." Chen Yuanchang's eyes passed through Master Zheng and finally landed on the young man driving the car at the back of the motorcade.
The young man was slightly stunned when he heard Chen Yuanchang's words, but he quickly regained his composure, jumped out of the car, and walked slowly to the front of the caravan.
"How did you know I was here?" Bai Cangdong looked at Chen Yuanchang in surprise and asked.
"The King's Palace has its own method of sensing the King's order." Chen Yuanchang paused, pointed to the two-winged tiger beast sitting down and said: "The Sage of the Bamboo Sea ordered me to come to greet you. You can follow me into the city."
"Thank you so much." Bai Cangdong flew up and jumped on the tiger's head. Chen Yuanchang gave the order, and the two-winged tiger beast spread its wings and immediately flew up to the nine heavens.
Only then did the many escorts react.
"Ah! The coachman in our caravan turned out to be the Masked Marquis. Am I just dreaming?"
"I have long said that he is an extraordinary person and definitely not an ordinary person. When he came to apply for the job of driver, he just made a move casually, and the giant hoofed beast automatically ran over and lowered his head next to him."
"It's such a pity that I walked with the Masked Marquis for so long and didn't even say a word to him."
"You're still talking, it's good enough that I didn't behead you. You're also bullying me because you're a newcomer and you let me do all the hard work. Fortunately, I'm a marquis with a big belly and don't even bother to argue with you."
The man before could not help but tremble and touched his neck in fear.
The two-winged tiger beast flew directly into the sky and flew away towards the sea of fog in the sky.
"Isn't the King's Palace at the ends of the earth? The direction we are going in seems wrong." Bai Cangdong looked at Chen Yuanchang with some suspicion.
"Tianya Haijiao is just the periphery of the King's Palace. It is used to receive taxes and some less important people. You will see the real King's Palace right away." Chen Yuanchang responded.
Bai Cangdong didn't ask any more questions. Since Chen Yuanchang was able to find him, he must be related to the King's Order.
The two-winged tiger beast flew into the clouds, and everything in sight was a vast expanse of white. Bai Cangdong sat on the back of the two-winged tiger beast. No matter how the two-winged tiger beast rolled and flew, the clouds were always calm and the wind was light.
Don't be moved by it.
"The Masked Marquis is indeed worthy of being called the Masked Marquis. Among the many geniuses I have connected to the King's City, I have never seen a second person who came here for the first time and is as indifferent as you." Chen Yuanchang said with a smile.
.
"Your Excellency is too complimentary." Bai Cangdong said with a friendly smile.
The two chatted for a few words, with Chen Yuanchang acting very friendly and Bai Cangdong talking casually and feeling relaxed and happy.
The two-winged tiger beast did not know how long it flew before it suddenly broke through the clouds and rushed out. The scenery in front suddenly became clear. Bai Candong looked at the clouds that looked like a white ocean. In the distance, a huge castle of unknown size lay across the clouds.
Above it, the whole body seems to be made of gold, shining with dazzling golden brilliance under the reflection of the sun. It is like the palace of the ancient gods in mythology.
"That's the King's Palace, but everyone who enters the King's Palace for the first time must undergo a test. If they can pass the test, they will be qualified to enter the King's Palace. If they fail the test, they will have to go back the way they came. I'm afraid
I will never have a chance to see the King's Palace in this life." Chen Yuanchang said softly.
"What kind of test?" Bai Cangdong was stunned for a while before asking.
The reason why he was frightened was not because of the test mentioned by Chen Yuanchang, but because the King's Palace gave him a feeling of déjà vu. It had many similarities with the Cloud Castle in the Demon Killing Field, but it also had many differences.
different.
"Have you seen the pair of stone statues of strange animals in front of the castle?" Chen Yuanchang asked, pointing to the approaching gate of the castle.
Bai Cangdong stared intently, and saw a pair of stone statues of strange animals with heads like Buddha, bodies like lions, and wings on their backs. They were located on both sides of the castle gate. They were also made of gold-like materials.
"The pair of strange beasts are called Immortal Beasts. The one on the left is called Immortal, and the one on the left is called Immortal. You only need to stand in front of the Immortal Beast and try your best to keep your life lamp burning. If the Immortal Beast is willing to do it,
If you open the door, then you are qualified to enter the king's palace, otherwise you have no choice but to leave, and even the king is not qualified to let you into the city."
Bai Cangdong looked at Chen Yuanchang in surprise and asked, "Are these immortal beasts so powerful that even kings cannot defeat them?"
"This is not a matter of whether the Immortal Beast is strong or weak. The entire King's City has existed since ancient times. Although the King is the king and the master of the King's City, some things are irreversible, just like this
The immortal beast that guards the gate of the King's City. Only those with its permission are eligible to enter the King's City. This is an eternal rule that no one can change. But you don't need to worry too much. The immortal beast
The pass is not sad. People born in the King's City do not need to pass this pass at all. The Immortal Beast gives them special treatment, and outsiders, as long as they have a Marquis-level cultivation and are no more than two hundred years old, generally
You can pass the test of the Immortal Beast." Chen Yuanchang explained.
"If I am rejected by the Immortal Beast, will there be no way to enter the King's Palace?" Bai Candong asked again.
"Logically speaking, there should be no chance, but there are some exceptions. For example, there was a marquis from the first level of darkness who wanted to enter the King's Palace. As a result, he was not allowed to enter by the Immortal Beast.
He was attacked by the immortal beast and died an unexpected death."
"What kind of opportunity is this?" Bai Cangdong felt that his brain seemed to be a bit out of use. He was killed by the immortal beast. Is this an opportunity?
"It is said that as long as you kill the immortal beast that leaves the stone throne, you can still enter the king's palace. This can be considered an opportunity, but no one has ever tried to enter the king's palace in this way, and ordinary people can't make the immortal beast leave the stone throne.
"Chen Yuanchang said with a smile.
When the two arrived in front of the King's Palace, Bai Candong discovered that the door to the King's Palace was not just a simple door, but twelve golden doors standing side by side. Each door was engraved with a strange mantra, but Bai Candong
Dong didn't know what it meant.
"Why are there twelve gates?" Bai Cangdong asked, looking at the twelve golden gates with some suspicion.
"This is also part of the test. The King's Palace looks like just an old castle, but there are twelve levels of space inside. Each door leads to a different level of space. You see the words on those twelve doors
Do you have any incantations? Each of those incantations represents an hour. The first door on the left. If you enter the King's Palace through this door, you will enter the first level of the King's Palace. Then what will you do in the King's Palace?
Every day will have thirteen hours, which is one hour more than outside. If you enter through the second door, you will enter the second layer of space, and your every day will have fourteen hours.
, and by analogy, if you enter the Palace of the King through the twelfth door, your days will be twenty-four hours, twice as long as ordinary people, which means you have twice the life limit of ordinary people.
, provided that you stay in the palace." Chen Yuanchang explained in detail.
Bai Cangdong was shocked: "The King's Palace is so magical. It directly violates the law of time. What is the decision of which door to enter through?"
"Naturally, it is decided by the immortal beasts. Whichever door they open, you can only enter which layer of space." Chen Yuanchang smiled: "As for what the immortal beasts are judged by, that's my opinion.
It is unknown. When some powerful marquis entered for the first time, the immortal beast only opened the first door. For some weak marquis, when they entered for the first time, the immortal beast would even open the fifth and sixth doors.
There is no way to infer the gate, but according to previous rules, when most people enter the palace, the farther back the gate they take, the greater their future achievements will be. Of course, this is not absolute.
But **Chengdu is like this.”
"So, wouldn't it be a tragedy for those who entered the King's Palace through the first gate, but they were just psychologically inferior to others." Bai Cangdong frowned.
"It can't be said that although the twelve-layer space is good, you can't be in it all the time, because there is nothing in the twelve-layer space except for violating the law of time. If you need resources
, you still need to enter the King's Palace in the end, which is directly connected to the twelfth floor of space. There are a lot of rich resources inside, but unfortunately, the time there is the same as the outside world. The so-called you can't have your cake and eat it too, which is probably
That's it, if you have a lot of resources and can stay in the twelfth level of space all the time, that's no problem. But I don't think anyone can do this. Even the children and grandchildren of kings cannot stay there every day.
In the twelfth-level space, after all, in addition to cultivation, they also need to accumulate combat experience and life. These things are not available in the twelfth-level space. You will naturally understand it when you enter in the future." Chen Yuanchang knows everything.
He spoke and told Bai Candong in detail about the King's Palace and the twelfth level of space.
"I see, then I will try to see which level of space I can enter." Bai Cangdong felt that there was no pressure in his heart. He could not stay in the King's Palace forever, so he didn't know which level of space he could enter.
Very concerned.
Of course, Bai Cangdong is naturally very happy to be able to enter a better space. If he only enters the first level of space, he will not feel any loss.
ps: It's a little stuck, I'm trying to come up with ideas.
