"You...you promised to let us go, that's why I said..." the woman added in a trembling voice.
"You...you will definitely be interested in this news. It is...about the inheritance of the strong..."
"What do you mean, do you know where there is a strong inheritance?" Qinglong's eyes widened.
"Yes..." The woman nodded.
"Furthermore, I know that people from the Scarlet Flame Empire and the Bingyun Empire have already gone. If you are late..."
"Speak!" Ling Hao interrupted her: "Speak out and I'll give you a way to survive!"
"Thank you... thank you!" The woman nodded quickly.
After a slight pause, he continued to speak.
"I heard someone from the Scarlet Flame Empire say before that there is a palace buried underground under the ruins of the palace. It is said that there is a legacy of powerful people in it."
"When those from the Scarlet Flame Empire came to Forbidden Valley this time, their first target was the underground palace."
After hearing her words, Ruan Hongyu, who was standing beside Ling Hao, had a strange look in his eyes.
"You'd better not lie to us!" Qinglong raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Hao: "Brother, do you want to go and have a look?"
"Let's go!" Ling Hao nodded and led everyone towards the palace.
Before leaving, Xuan Pang did not forget the other's bag. After handing the bag in his hand to the judge, he picked up the bag not far away and followed him.
Everyone hurried on at full speed, and in about twenty minutes, the group of people appeared at the location of the palace.
Compared with other parts of the city, the palace was the most severely damaged and was basically in ruins.
Most of the palaces have collapsed, and there are ruins everywhere. The few that have not collapsed are already in danger.
"The palace is so big, where can I find the palace buried underground?" Xuanwu scanned the surrounding area.
"Brother, can you sense the warrior's aura?" Suzaku looked at Ling Hao and asked.
"Can't sense it!" Ling Hao shook his head.
He had already released his mental power to explore the entire ruins, and to his surprise, there was no aura fluctuation at all.
It stands to reason that after entering this city, his ability to sense spiritual power would be much stronger than in previous environments.
If there is anyone within a radius of 10 to 20 kilometers, he will never escape his careful detection.
But here, except for this group of people, he didn't sense anyone's aura.
And there were no traces of anyone walking on the ground, not even a single footprint.
"Mr. Ling, that side should be the direction of the main hall, go over there and have a look!" Ruan Hongyu raised his finger and pointed to the position in front of him on the right and said.
"Yeah!" Ling Hao nodded and ran over with everyone.
After a while, I came to a collapsed hall. Here are the remains of the main hall of the palace.
"Look around!" Ling Hao waved his hand and said.
"Okay!" everyone responded and dispersed.
"Husband, come and take a look here!" Qin Yuxin said loudly after a while.
"Wife, what's wrong?" Ling Hao quickly came to the front.
"Look at the floor over there. There are traces of movement." Qin Yuxin pointed in the direction about ten meters away.
"Huh?" Ling Hao looked over.
I saw that there wasn't much garbage on the floor over there, and it looked relatively clean, but it was not in harmony with the surroundings.
"Brother Ling Hao, there should be a formation!" At this time, Xuan Chenxi and Lu Yue also came over.
"Yeah!" Ling Hao nodded: "Give me a few minutes!"
He also detected that the array pattern was fluctuating. After speaking, he closed his eyes and released his mental power to sense the array pattern.
When he inspected the ruins of the entire palace before, he only paid attention to whether there were any fluctuations in the martial arts aura, and did not pay much attention to the formations, so he did not sense that there were any formations set up here.
"Chen Xi, the formation eye is over there. I will block the formation pattern, and you are responsible for opening the formation eye!"
Less than five minutes later, Ling Hao opened his eyes and pointed at a stone pillar not far away and said.
This formation can only be regarded as an intermediate formation. With Ling Hao's current attainments, it is easy to find the formation's eye.
"Okay!" Xuan Chenxi responded and walked towards the stone pillar.
The next step is very simple. After the formation eye is opened, the area slowly moves to the side.
Then a cave entrance with a length and width of about ten meters was revealed. Everyone looked at it and saw that there was a stone staircase inside the cave entrance.
At the same time, a strong coercive momentum spread out from the cave.
"Cheer up and follow me!" After finishing speaking, Ling Hao led the group of people towards the stone staircase.
What left everyone speechless was that the stone staircase was really not short. It went around and around for an unknown amount of time. Just when everyone was about to lose their patience, they finally arrived at a huge underground space.
The space is indeed large enough, covering an area of at least hundreds of thousands of square meters.
What surprised everyone was that hundreds of meters away, there was another stone staircase extending upward. Looking at the situation, it was initially estimated that there must be at least nearly a thousand steps.
On the stone stairs, at intervals, there is a spacious platform for resting.
There is a corridor connected to the left and right sides of each platform. At the other end of the corridor is a semi-suspended building with a wooden structure and a palace shape.
At the top of the stone staircase is a majestic palace with carved beams and painted pillars, resplendent in gold and jade green, which faintly exudes a cold atmosphere.
At this time, there were many people scattered on the stone stairs.
The remaining people from the Scarlet Flame Empire and Bingyun Empire, as well as Ruan Hongyuan and his party, were all present.
In addition, there were several corpses lying on the stone stairs, apparently caused by conflicts between the three waves of people.
Ling Hao and others also noticed that the group of people walking at the front of the stone staircase all looked pale, with expressions of great effort on their faces.
"I didn't expect there to be such a place under the palace!" Cang Lang continued after looking at the top of the stone staircase.
"Brother, if there really is a legacy, it should be in the palace above!"
"Nine times out of ten!" Bai Hu nodded: "Brother, let's go, don't let them get there first!"
"There's no need to be in such a hurry!" Lu Yue replied on Ling Hao's behalf: "If nothing else, it shouldn't be that simple on the stone staircase!"
"What do you mean?" Bai Hu and others were slightly stunned.
"If it was just an ordinary stone staircase, they should have entered the palace above long ago." Xuan Chenxi thought thoughtfully.
"If nothing else, the stone staircase is also blessed with formations. It may not be that easy to reach the top!"
"No way?" The judge and Zhuihun were stunned for a moment.
At the same time, Ruan Hongyu, who was standing aside, murmured slightly excitedly.
"I didn't expect that the legendary Forbidden Temple really exists!"
