At this time, in a somewhat dim hall, dozens of green flames, like will-o'-the-wisps, were burning on the pillars nearby. The light seemed dim, but it made the entire hall clearly visible, except for the figure near the figure above.
It was an area where even light could not enter.
There was a figure sitting on a dragon-shaped mount above. Facing the empty hall, he didn't know what he was doing. Suddenly, the void in front of him fluctuated, waking him up from his meditation.
He stretched out a hand and inserted it straight into the void in front of him. When he did something wrong, an ordinary picture appeared in his hand. You could see a peaceful mountain villa on it, with silhouettes of people, and it looked just like the real thing.
A pair of red rays of light emerged from his face, and then he looked into the scroll. His originally lazy look suddenly changed, and his face became angry.
The scroll in his hand shook slightly, and two figures rolled out from it, lying unconscious on the ground. At the same time, there was a figure like a spirit floating up from above.
"Where is the soul stone that I hope for? That guy from Zhuhun asked me to spend a lot of energy to teleport you there. Why is there no one there?" An ordinary voice sounded faintly, with a little anger in it, especially in this empty hall.
It seems eerie and terrifying.
"King of Heaven, someone has cracked the illusion of returning to the ruins inside and took the person away at the last moment of transmission." The figure said floating in the air.
"boom"
The figure above instantly swooped, making a loud noise, and the entire hall seemed to tremble. He stood up, walked a few steps forward, and shouted in front of him.
"Impossible, unless you release the water, how else can you leave there? Even if the intruder can leave at any time, the person trapped in there can't break out without the original stone to release the restraints. Do you still want to experience the Nine
You Zhihuo actually dared to release water to the opponent."
"King of Heaven, we really didn't let it go. If you don't believe it, you can check everything about the other party and you will know that what we said is false and that the other party really broke through Guixu." The spirit remained unmoved and said firmly.
"Okay, I want to see how the opponent can actually break through." The figure sneered, raised his hand, and a white light shot into the scroll, and then the entire scroll began to ripple like water waves.
The worshiping figures and villages above began to disappear, and at the same time, two figures, one large and one small, slowly emerged from above.
The figure looked at it carefully, trying to see who it was, but when the outline of the figure was completed and the body was about to flash out, a mysterious force suddenly appeared, shattering the power of the scroll.
At the same time, the figure above also quickly disappeared, and the entire scroll changed again to show its previous appearance.
The figure above also groaned, then took a step back, his face flushed, and he was immediately suppressed.
"Damn it, can't you see each other? But your defense is not good, and it cost me so much. I didn't even get the Soul Stone back. No matter what, all of you will have to be immersed in the Yin Spring for hundreds of years and suffer endless pain.
Let you know the cost of failure."
The figure recovered a little, and then said viciously.
Without waiting for the person who painted the scroll to reply, he raised his hand and the spirit body was included in the scroll. With a wave of his hand, the scroll instantly disappeared into the void without a trace.
"King of Heaven, your envoy is outside and has something to report."
At this time, outside the palace gate, a figure suddenly sounded.
The door was opened silently, and then a man in black robe quickly walked in and knelt down on one knee in the middle of the hall.
"King of Heaven, the new entrance has been prepared. Just wait for a gap to be opened above, and then a stable passage will be formed."
"Okay, this time we can only succeed and not fail. We have been planning for such a long time and there is no remaining material at all. Watch out for the troublemakers over there and don't let them destroy you again, otherwise everyone will understand the consequences." The figure's face finally showed a trace of his face.
smile.
"King of Heaven, please rest assured. We have sent some troops to attack the other side. The other side simply cannot use the power to destroy us. Even he may be able to stop us." The man in black robe said confidently.
"He? Don't be too proud. He's just a clone. He wants to suppress us. How is it possible? He suppresses us for a while, but he can't suppress us for a while. If we appear here again, isn't it because we will regain a foothold on it one day? At that time, we will surely rise.
At that time." The figure stood on top and said with contempt for the world.
"Follow the King of Heaven and we will surely be revived. Those people are short-sighted and just want stability. When the time comes, they will kneel at the feet of the King of Heaven." The man in black robe also shouted enthusiastically.
"Those people are not an example. How is the situation above?" Thinking of those people, although he had a headache, at least they didn't hold him back.
I heard that someone seemed to be wavering over there and tried to open a channel above, but there has been no movement for so many years. I'm afraid they failed. It seems that the losses were quite a lot, which is nothing to worry about.
"Although the progress above is not going very smoothly. First, the Shura people who asked for a partnership failed miserably in order to purify the sword. Instead, they were tricked by outsiders. But perhaps because of our guilt, they sent powerful people to help us suppress that place.
, at least half of the area is under our control, but we can't enter the core yet." The man in black robe said carefully.
"You mean, we have assembled below, do we still have to wait for the top?" The smile on the figure's face slowly disappeared.
"Yes, but we are fully prepared. As long as we get the core jade seal, we can activate it at any time. However, the ear guardian mechanism and Ying Yingling inside are too powerful. Even if Shura is added, we can only eliminate them bit by bit.
Even so, we have suffered a lot." The man in black robe also said carefully.
"In that case, then be prepared. You also know the consequences of failure. Go down, I'm going to retreat." The figure ordered calmly, not interested in asking anything else.
"My subordinates, please retire." The man in black robe lowered his head and said, then withdrew again.
...
At this time, the edge of the mountain in the distance of Xuekui City was originally a very ordinary open space. At this time, many people had gathered. Every aura was very powerful, and the lowest was not lower than the Golden Immortal realm. Looking at it, at least
There are hundreds of people.
With the opening of the underground palace, some fluctuations have been noticed by the people around it. Not only Xuekui City, but also other nearby cities, as long as people with a certain level of cultivation will definitely come here.
Although Gu Zheng and the others got here first, they were unable to enter. They had to wait until the underground palace opened to a certain extent before they could enter, and they had to be within a certain range. After all, the underground palace was not down there, but in another hidden space. There was no
No one can find accurate guidance.
But what these people didn't know was that they gathered together in groups of three and two, talking to each other about this place, and guessing what the movement was that caused such a big stir. There were many people visiting below, trying to find the source of the fluctuations, and some even
They all used some magic weapons to drill down.
Because the fluctuation is in this area, no one can pinpoint its location, and it feels like it is everywhere.
In a corner on one side, Gu Zheng and a few people also occupied a place openly and openly. There was no cover at all. Moreover, with so many people, it was useless to hide their bodies. They just had to wait quietly.
Just leave it on.
"Sister Zhou, you can go in in a few days."
While talking to each other inside, Xiaoying suddenly asked Zhou Xuan.
"Don't be anxious for a day at most. There are still some dangers when you get down. Although there are not many mechanisms in the underground palace in general, once it is activated, you have to break through, otherwise you will not be able to enter the next area."
Zhou Xuan said with a smile.
"Isn't the underground palace a whole? Is it necessary to break into the last one?" Xiaoying suddenly asked.
"Of course not. In fact, it is divided into three parts. You can only enter and leave the next place after passing the first place. But it seems that we don't care about the guards inside, but these people are our biggest, because every time
The number of people going down is limited, which can at least alleviate some pressure." Zhou Xuan explained.
"That person is here, but I can't find any trace of him." At this time, Gu Zheng, who was standing aside, suddenly said.
"I know it, but with the other party's strength, there will definitely be no problem in getting in. We have to be careful not to let the other party find an opportunity. The other party's cultivation level is no worse than yours."
Of course Zhou Xuan knew who Gu Zheng was referring to, but he didn't expect that the other party was so good at concealing himself.
According to Gu Zheng's intention, he wanted to block them directly outside, but the other party was so careful. Even Gu Zheng could only feel a trace of the other party's breath. It was a pity.
Even Gu Zheng noticed that the other party seemed to have discovered this place, but they were also hiding very deeply, and it was certain that the other party would not be able to discover their existence.
Next, in addition to the increasing number of people, some small conflicts also gradually occurred. However, no matter how big the conflict was, they found another place to resolve it. With so many people here, even if each person was hit, they would still bear it.
If you don't live there, of course you can't fight so arrogantly here.
But what puzzled Gu Zheng was that some Da Luo masters actually came here, but when it was half a day before the opening, they all left again.
Of course, it's not just their departure, there are also some who feel that they are not strong enough and still feel that there are too many people, so they have chosen to leave. Even so, there are still some people with heavenly cultivation in the crowd, who are also gearing up to break in.
As everyone knows, the vast majority of them are not qualified to enter at all.
It seems that they should be worried about their comfort. You must know that except for the last place, you have to suppress your own cultivation when you enter, otherwise you will be directly ejected from the space inside. Maybe they are aware of it.
At this time, the closer to the opening of the underground palace, the surrounding strange phenomena began to appear. Even Gu Zheng could detect the huge fluctuations in the air. On the original wasteland, wisps of tender green grass appeared, making the appearance of green grass appear on the ground.
A hint of green.
"There is still half a day, and it may be opened at any time. Everyone, please pay attention. We just need to stay together as a group. Don't rush in first. Let them knock away the traps in front first. This will not only reduce the chance of exposing yourself, but also reduce your own risk."
Loss." At this time Zhou Xuan stood up and said.
Everyone nodded, knowing that what Zhou Xuan said was true, and continued to wait calmly.
But those people outside didn't know that they were obviously a little impatient when faced with the underground palace that seemed to open at any time, but at this time everyone was holding back and restraining themselves.
As time passed, the spiritual energy in the surrounding air became much denser. At the same time, it started to grow slowly like weeds. However, most of them only grew in our corners, but some were as strong as saplings.
The ground continues to grow.
Not long after, huge mushroom-like grass stems appeared in the air, like willow trees, blooming from the middle and hanging down to all sides, covering most of the air. The fragrance of green grass filled everyone's minds, making everyone feel uncomfortable.
Each of them is in the best mental condition.
Everyone looked up. Although they didn't know why there was something there, they also knew that entering the underground palace must have something to do with them.
Those green grass stems are absorbing spiritual energy in all directions faster, and the originally green body is now like emerald, emitting green light.
"Look, the inner elixir is beginning to condense on the opponent's fallen leaves." Zhou Xuan suddenly said.
When Gu Zheng heard this, he looked up. On some hanging grass stems, green crystals like rice grains appeared below, and strips of bright green light flashed from the grass stems and were transported inside.
, the speed visible to the naked eye is increasing.
—————
By the time everyone discovered it, it was already the size of an apple and was still growing.
The emerald, which is like a fruit, also has waves of fluctuations. Anyone can detect it at a glance. It is also clear at a glance that if you want to enter the underground palace, you must enter through these gem-like things.
"We drink them differently." Gu Zheng looked at it with some confusion. The one in his hand was completely different.
"Those can only be entered at one time. If you want to go out, you must leave through a special passage, or the creature can escape, and you can only enter one at a time. Not only can we leave at any time in our hands, but more importantly,
, it can also prevent the creature inside from being our enemy and treating us as a companion, because this thing is a signal for the other party to ask for help." Zhou Xuan explained carefully.
"Wouldn't that be very convenient, but does the other party have this thing? Why would the other party give us this thing?" Upon hearing this, Xiaoying rolled her eyes and said with some confusion.
"How do you think the other party can get out of trouble? Theoretically, our own people are absolutely right. Of course the other party has another way to get in. This time we go in by ourselves and give the other party complete freedom. The other aspect is to teleport into the enemy camp.
Zhou Xuan continued with a smile.
"But once the underground palace is activated, there is no way to get in. We can only go down a little bit from the top, so we also have to remove some of the other party's constraints. Only in this way can the other party be completely out of trouble. This is what we promised the other party at the beginning.
conditions of."
"Well, it's just a matter of convenience, so I'll help you, and there's nothing wrong with it." Gu Zheng nodded and said directly, with no displeasure on his face.
This made Zhou Xuan on the side quietly breathed a sigh of relief and continued.
"Actually, these people also help us to a certain extent. After all, the threats to us are those epiphytic creatures and some institutions that have been set up. And later, when the other party recovers some strength, they will also help us, but our biggest enemy is
He's the one with some nerves."
Gu Zheng didn't say anything, just nodded. Gu Zheng didn't take the enemy in that position seriously. In the early stage of Da Luo, he had great confidence in defeating the opponent.
At this time, as the emerald gems above are getting bigger and bigger, some are ready to move. If everyone were not in a strange balance, they would probably start to grab them.
There are at least hundreds of gems in the surroundings, but the crowd around them is more than that, which means that most of them cannot enter at all. Of course, there are some lucky people who can enter without passing through.
"It's about to fall." Gu Zheng sighed softly.
At this time, almost all the emerald pearls had a trace of green air on them, and they clearly looked like they were about to fall, and these were almost not missing for a few breaths. In other words, a melee for snatching was inevitable.
As Gu Zheng's voice fell, a light sound suddenly rose in the air, and then a green bead fell from above in full view of everyone.
"Grab it quickly!"
I don't know who shouted in the crowd, and immediately everyone nearby started to move, rushing towards what was falling or about to fall in front of them.
For a moment, the sky was full of light like bright stars rising in the middle area. At the same time, countless roars and collisions, some people's curses, and injured groans began to resound.
As expected from the ancient war, a big melee began to appear in front of us. However, these people fighting for it were very measured and did not use strong attacks to fight. So it seemed chaotic, but no one died. At most, they were seriously injured.
That's all.
However, there are still some people who are very smart and hide on the outside, sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, waiting for the opportunity to take action.
But as the lights in the field continued to flash, some people who got it had a breath of relief, and before giving others a chance, they directly activated it, and then turned into a ball of green light and disappeared in front of everyone.
Now the people outside could not wait any longer and joined in the fight one after another, because some of them quickly regrouped and exploded in all directions as soon as they appeared, and some lucky ones even grabbed it directly.
"Let's go!" Gu Zheng saw that it was almost time and said to Zhou Xuan.
"That's what I meant, don't be nervous, I'll take everyone in." Zhou Xuan nodded, understanding that now was the best time and took out the inner elixir.
With a simple cover, people outside looked at the place and it was chaos. It was similar to the inside. A few green lights also flashed, and Gu Zheng and his group all disappeared.
But the people outside are still fighting for each other, and continue to work hard to grab the places to get in. And as the number becomes less and less, a trace of anger is also being beaten out, and they are becoming more and more unable to hold back their actions.
Some people with low strength gave up the fight when they saw this. In less than half a cup of tea, all the people holding the green beads had been teleported in.
At this time, those grass stems were also rapidly weathering, and the fluctuations in the air gradually subsided, and soon they returned to their original appearance.
Those who didn't go in sighed and dispersed, leaving only a few people who were still lingering here, trying to find other ways to enter below.
