Stopping at the door of the tower for a moment, Yun Xi walked in.
After passing through the copper door, it was pitch black inside.
Yun Xi brushed her fingers, took out a flashlight embedded with lighting crystals and shined it forward.
"That weird thing said we can enter the Thousand Crossing Layer, so how should we enter?"
She asked the question in a low voice and looked forward.
Inside the tower, there is a road that is neither wide nor narrow. There are two walls on both sides of the road. There are many messy scratches on the walls. It seems that this place has not been peaceful.
Bai Qing shook his head: "If you ask me, I don't know either."
Suddenly, as if it thought of something, it turned its head and looked behind it.
"Hey, Yunxi."
It patted Yun Xi's head. Yun Xi turned around and looked back. The flashlight light illuminated the road and walls, and she found that the entrance she had just entered had disappeared.
The place that was supposed to be a door has now turned into a wall, with two strong characters carved on the wall - Qiandu.
Yun Xi frowned slightly and said, "We have already entered the Thousand Crossing Level."
Bai Qing thought for a while and analyzed: "It seems that before everyone enters the secret realm, they should have been assigned to the tower level that they can enter. The gate of the tower will directly arrive at the place where they should have arrived at the beginning.
”
Yun Xi was noncommittal.
She turned around and continued walking forward. After walking along the passage for a while, Yun Xi saw a fork in the road in front of her, branching out into three passages.
"Go to the middle."
Bai Qing said without thinking.
Yun Xi didn't say much and just walked forward as it said. Soon, they passed through a door and arrived at a large hall.
It was not pitch dark inside the main hall. Yun Xi shined the light inside and found that the area inside was extremely vast, but the things were so complicated that it was difficult to see clearly what was inside.
There was a sudden light on the shoulder. Yun Xi turned around and saw Bai Qing leaping onto the wall next to her. It was covered with spiritual power, stepped on the wall and walked forward, stopping in front of a protruding wooden platform. p>
"It's a wall lamp."
Bai Qing raised his head and said to Yun Xi: "But there is no kerosene in it, so we still have to rely on spiritual power to light it."
As he spoke, he waved his paw, and the white spiritual power spread out along the wall like a bright light, illuminating the hall like a lit lamp.
Under the bright light, Yun Xi and Bai Qing also saw clearly what was in front of them, and they instinctively held their breath.
In the dusty hall, there are large and majestic skeletons standing. Some of these skeletons are very complete, while others are relatively scattered. They are distributed disorderly inside the hall, giving people a sense of grandeur.
Yun Xi raised her head and looked overhead. Only then did she realize that the ceiling here was very high. The entire Qiandu Layer was probably hundreds of meters high.
Think about it, this tower looks ridiculously tall from the outside. If there are only six floors inside, then the height of each floor cannot be low.
Bai Qing looked at these tall and imposing skeletons carefully and said, "These should be the skeletons of bears. There are about thirty of them."
Yun Xi suddenly thought of the information he had obtained in the Mysterious Realm of the Demon Master, and said: "So many skeletons are from the same race. In this way, this Demon Master's Secret Realm is actually equivalent to a huge cemetery."
Bai Qing jumped back from the wall and onto Yun Xi's shoulders, and said: "Well, the senior demon master led many demon clan people to escape natural disasters, but now she herself has fallen, and those who followed her have naturally also
It’s impossible to be alive.”
Yun Xi knelt down, reached out and touched it gently
"There have been no living creatures here for many years. It is no longer a matter of them not being able to survive that long. They have even stopped reproducing."
A secret realm is a secret realm after all. If a secret realm that is completely disconnected from the real world is closed for a long time, you will face all kinds of questions.
For example, spiritual energy is gradually getting thinner, for example, there is gradually insufficient fertilizer in the soil, for example, water sources are becoming increasingly scarce... These small problems are connected together, and under the pressure of time, even a strong spirit-slaying expert cannot ignore them.
Without spiritual energy, water and food, no matter how strong a person is, it is impossible to live forever.
Bai Qing sighed softly: "Indeed, since entering this secret realm, I have hardly felt any spiritual energy. Compared with the Buddha's secret realm, there is a huge difference."
"After all, the Buddha's secret realm is connected to Buddha City, which is a city that really exists in a certain world."
The biggest difference between the Buddha's secret realm and the demon's secret realm is that the Buddha led the residents of Buddha City to other worlds to find a way to survive, but the demon could only hide underground with his people until death.
Clapping her hands, Yun Xi walked towards the interior of the palace. She carefully avoided these skeletons, spread her spiritual consciousness, and observed the surroundings while avoiding possible dangers.
When Yun Xi passed by these skeletons, Bai Qing probed to observe the skeletons at close range and found that some of these skeletons still had some signs of injury.
Its fox eyes are slightly focused, and its eyebrows are lowered in thought.
This place is said to be a palace, but it is actually just a larger room. The room is very large, but there are not many things at all. You can see them all at a glance. Of course, this may also be because the things here have been catalyzed by time.
, most of them have turned into dust.
Yun Xi passed by the skeletons and came to a stone table. There were many books on the table, and thick dust accumulated on the books.
Yun Xi reached out and tried to open the books, but her fingers just touched the books, and they turned into crumbs and could no longer maintain their original shape.
After the passage of time, these books have long since lost their original appearance, and it is impossible for them to exist for ten million years.
Looking at the debris in her hand, Yun Xi's eyes turned. This was good news for her. The system asked her to search for ancient books hidden in the secret realm. It is impossible for ordinary books to exist for so many years without being damaged. In this case
, then it will be easier for her to sift through this secret realm.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
This palace looks big, and there are a lot of things inside. Although it has been gradually destroyed over time in the long river of history, it can still maintain its original appearance as long as it is not touched.
Bai Qing jumped away from Yun Xi's shoulder again and flew towards some other objects. It wrapped its petite body with spiritual power to prevent its pure body from being contaminated by the dust here.
It flips these objects, not caring how much damage they will suffer due to its own actions. These things are already damaged. Even if it doesn't touch them now, those who come to the Demon Lord's secret realm in the future will also flip them.<
/p>
After rummaging through the ruins for a while, it looked up at Yun Xi and said, "There doesn't seem to be any valid information."
Yun Xi also checked in other places, but this place felt to her like an ancient ordinary tomb, with no spiritual power fluctuations and no inheritance.
She said: "I haven't found anything here, let's go look elsewhere."
In addition to the entrance they entered before, there are three exits in the palace, and they don’t know where the four entrances and exits lead.
"Which way are we going this time?" Yun Xi asked.
"Let's continue in the middle. Anyway, just look around."
Of course, Bai Qing doesn't know where to go. It's his first time here, and he needs to explore many things on his own, but if the two of them act together, it will be the same wherever they go.
It's good to have a companion to come in with, so you won't be bored and have something to talk about.
Walking along the middle road, they soon came to another palace. Both the size and the overall layout of this palace were actually the same as the previous Bear Palace. The difference was the skeleton here.
"It's a tiger, but it looks different from a normal tiger. Maybe it was some kind of extinct creature." Bai Qing quickly made an analysis.
"Separately search to see if there is anything else nearby." Yun Xi said.
"Hmm."
One person and one fox acted separately, and in just three or two minutes, they checked the area cleanly.
Yun Xi first came to the desk as before, but what surprised her was that there were no books here. She looked around and found that there was a book on the stone table
She reached out to pick them up, and the situation was the same as before. The books turned into a pair of crumbs before she picked them up.
Yun Xi dusted off the dust in her hands and continued to walk to other places to observe. When passing a wall, she suddenly stopped. She held a flashlight and cast bright light on the walls. On these walls
, leaving many very obvious scratches.
These scratches are irregular and look like they were made by the claws of some kind of creature.
"Bai Qing."
She called out, and Bai Qing quickly flew over.
"Look at these."
Bai Qing looked in the direction of the flashlight and found traces on the wall.
Her foxy eyes showed her thoughts: "These are the traces of battle. Looking at these claw marks, it seems that they are not only those of tigers."
Yun Xi said to it: "Use all your strength to hit this wall."
Bai Qing immediately understood what Yun Xi meant, and without hesitation, he redirected his spiritual power and landed a claw directly on the wall.
Bah!!
The sound was harsh and echoed in the quiet palace. The claw wind stirred up large amounts of dust. Yun Xi directly dispersed his spiritual power and swept away the dust.
After everything returned to silence, she and Bai Qing looked at the wall together.
The shallow scratches seemed to have scraped away the dust on the wall, making the area swept by Bai Qing's claws look slightly different in color from other places, but as far as the wall itself was concerned, it did not cause damage.
Traces.
The two of them compared this mark with the claw marks that had remained for who knows how many years. Bai Qing said: "The people who made these marks are at least at the eighth level of the Soul Tribulation."
As a snow fox, her claws are extremely sharp, and even in the spirit transformation state, she cannot leave traces on the wall, so the demon who left traces here before must be of a very high level.
Yun Xi pondered for a moment and asked: "The inheritance is still not found in this palace, right?"
"If you only found this one clue, that should be it." Bai Qing replied.
Yun Xi remained silent and did not jump to any conclusion.
"Let's look around again."
"Okay."
They kept shuttling through the ancient pagoda along the passage, passing one palace after another. These palaces were all the same and looked like a maze.
After checking three or four more palaces, Yun Xi suddenly said: "Actually, there is also a mystical realm in Tianling Continent called the Spirit Tomb. There are many deceased fortune spirits and even spirit-slaying powerhouses sitting in it.
Under the protection of the environment, they all left their own inheritance, and even a ray of remnant soul can survive for a long time."
Bai Qing tilted his head. He knew what Yun Xi was trying to say, so he listened carefully.
"The feeling given to me by the Demon Lord's secret realm is actually somewhat similar to that of the spiritual tomb. In addition to the Demon Lord, there are also strong men from many other races here. Qiu Xin said that this tower has six floors, and the Qiandu layer we are on is the first.
On the fourth floor, if the monsters in the tower are distributed according to their strength, then our floor should at least be strong in the Spirit Tribulation Realm."
"Although the demons in the Soul-Calling Realm are not as good as the Luck Spirit Realm and the Soul-killing Realm, they are definitely not weak. With so many Soul-Calling Monster Clan, under the protection of the Mysterious Realm, not a single inheritance should be left. And after we passed
There are no traces of anyone coming to these palaces in advance, so I think..."
"I'm afraid there is civil strife among those demon clans."
Yun Xi looked at Bai Qing and said his conclusion seriously: "The demon clan here should have fought for some reason. Many races that were defeated in the battle did not even have time to leave their own inheritance and fell.
”
Bai Qing heard Yun Xi's words and couldn't help but nodded: "This possibility is indeed not small. I just observed that there are traces of injuries on many skeletons. Maybe they were caused by fights." p>
As for why the fight occurred, neither of them went into detail, but everyone knew it.
When a group of refugees live in a place without food, what will they do in order to survive?
Humans will still cannibalize the same kind, let alone these monsters of different races?
But if such a past really exists, then this means that as the only three victors, the ancestors of the three tribes of Dragon Turtle, Golden Crow, and Snow Fox were once the victors in this battle, and they persisted until they could get out of the secret realm.
That day.
But for this day, they may have shouldered a lot of sin.
She didn't know how Bai Qing felt about this, but she didn't want to know, so she stopped at her conclusion.
But for Bai Qing, a little snow fox, he never cares about these things. He has been proud since he was born. No matter why the snow fox tribe remains, it is their ability and there is nothing to care about.
Yun Xi said: "Judging from the current situation, there is probably no inheritance left in this secret realm, at least within this level."
Bai Qing flicked his tail and said nonchalantly: "They are just some spirit-stealing monsters. Without inheritance, there is no inheritance. Let's find a way to get to the Wantong layer. There may be inheritance that is useful to us on the upper level." "That's true."
Yun Xi took steps and continued to move forward.
