With Ye Chen and others waiting patiently, Li Fengyu finally returned to the inn until late at night.
"how?"
Li Fengyu had just returned, and Ye Chen immediately greeted him.
"You are right, Fengyue Place is indeed a good place!"
First, he teased Ye Chen with a half-smile, but then Li Fengyu straightened his face and said seriously: "I did find out just now that there is indeed a fairy root in the Moon Worshiping Empire, and it is in the sacrificial hall!"
"oh?
really have?"
Looking at Nangong Kaige, Ye Chen was overjoyed, "Have you found out the specific location?"
When he heard what Nangong Kaige said before, he was a little worried that the other party was deceiving him.
Now it seems that Nangong Kaige must not have lied to himself.
"As for the specific location, I didn't find out!"
Li Fengyu shook his head.
“If you don’t know where the specific location is, it will be a bit difficult!”
Nangong Kaige said disappointedly: "After all, the sacrificial hall is so big, we can't turn the entire sacrificial hall over and beat it again."
But Ye Chen said: "Just confirm that there is one in the worship hall of the Moon Worship Empire!"
"Do you already have a better plan?"
Nangong Kaige asked.
"Although it's not there yet, finding out where the fairy roots are is actually not as troublesome as you think!"
"What are you going to do?"
"Before we take action, shouldn't we ask a priest to find out?"
"But how could those priests answer truthfully..."
Before he finished speaking, Nangong Kaige understood instantly and whispered: "You mean to ask directly!"
"Besides this, do you have any other better ways to make the priests answer the questions obediently?"
Ye Chen shrugged.
"That's...okay!"
Nangong Kaige wiped away cold sweat.
"Now that it has been confirmed that the Fairy Root is indeed in the sacrificial hall, the next thing we have to do is to scout the terrain!"
Ye Chen was full of expectations, "As long as we find the flaw in the defense of the sacrificial hall, we can steal the fairy root in one fell swoop and stay away from this hostile land of right and wrong!"
For the next period of time, a few people had nothing to do all day long. Apart from gathering in the inn, they almost spent the day wandering around the palace and the sacrificial hall.
Because they wore the unique costumes of the Moon Worshiping Empire, their faces were covered by scarves, and they never interacted with anyone, even if they passed by many locals, no one noticed their differences.
After five days of observation, Ye Chen finally had a clearer understanding of the capital of the Moon Worshiping Empire.
The capital of the Moon Worshiping Empire has a population of approximately one million.
Almost one-fifth of the entire Moon Worshiping Empire's population gathered in the imperial capital.
The gap between the two places he was most concerned about, the sacrificial hall and the imperial palace, was indeed quite large.
From the appearance alone, the palace is indeed magnificent and majestic. It is inlaid with gold and jade everywhere, making it appear high-end and majestic.
However, the guards of the palace are just ordinary soldiers. Although they have practiced witchcraft, their spiritual power fluctuations are very weak.
Of course, the so-called witchcraft, the specific practice methods, and the effects displayed when used against the enemy are somewhat different from those of the warriors of the Yong'an Empire.
But all kinds of techniques in the world ultimately lead to the same goal.
Whether it is a wizard, a warrior, or the soul arts of the soul clan... they all need to be based on spiritual power in the end.
In other words, spiritual power is the source of all power.
Without spiritual power, all techniques are just frivolous.
As for the palace guards of the Moon Worshiping Empire, the spiritual power fluctuations in their bodies are relatively weak, so they probably don't have strong witchcraft.
On the contrary, the aura of the guards of the sacrificial hall is much stronger than that of the guards of the palace.
Especially the building of the sacrificial hall is completely different from the royal palace.
The building of the sacrificial hall is engraved with various ancient murals, including demons with teeth and claws; strong men with ferocious faces; and weirdos with three heads and six arms...
Or they are too old, and many of the murals have become mottled due to the erosion of time.
However, the closer you get to these murals, the more you feel an invisible sense of oppression.
It seems that these murals are real. When you stare at the murals carefully, you will always have an illusion that you are about to come out.
The entire sacrificial hall is filled with a strong mysterious color, which is in sharp contrast with the magnificence of the palace.
The royal palace represents wealth and honor, while the sacrificial hall represents strength and inheritance.
"Can I get close to these murals?"
After staring at the mural on a wall a hundred feet away, Ye Chen spoke to Li Fengyu.
"What are you doing so close?"
Li Fengyu also sent a message: "These murals are sacred and inviolable in the hearts of the people of the Moon Worshiping Empire. Let alone ordinary civilians, even for sacrifices, they are not allowed to touch them at will, otherwise it will be regarded as a kind of blasphemy!"
"I always feel that these murals are not simple. I want to take a closer look!"
Ye Chen insisted.
"It's just a mural. Although it's a little more realistic, it doesn't seem to be anything special, right?"
Li Fengyu said in surprise: "According to my understanding of the cultural customs of the Moon Worshiping Empire, these murals should be of mythical beasts that existed in ancient times, ancient witches... and so on."
"What about other places?"
Ye Chen still refused to give up, "Is there any chance to touch these murals elsewhere?"
"Why do you have to touch these murals?"
Li Fengyu was even more puzzled.
But Ye Chen did not insist, and just continued to say: "Is there such a place?"
Li Fengyu pondered for a moment before nodding, "Yes!"
"where?"
"View the auditorium!"
"oh?
Where can I access the murals?”
"good!"
Li Fengyu said: "There are also some murals and statues in the auditorium. The sacrificial hall allows ordinary civilians to enter and worship. In order to express how devout their beliefs are, the worshiping civilians can reach out and touch those murals and statues!"
"Then let's go to the auditorium now and have a look!"
Ye Chen urged.
"But the place is heavily guarded. Everyone who enters will be carefully inspected. They also need to take off their scarves and even ask for their name and address. Not to mention you, even if I go there, I'm afraid my secret will be revealed!"
"this……"
Ye Chen was a little embarrassed for a moment.
But as his thoughts were whirling, he suddenly had an idea, "Yes!"
"Do you have any idea?"
"Yes!"
"any solution?"
"Found in the east and attack in the west!"
Before Li Fengyu could ask any more questions, Ye Chen immediately strode towards the auditorium.
Not long after, we came to a magnificent gate.
The flow of people here is even denser, with people coming in and out, bustling with people, no matter men, women, old or young, everyone's exposed eyes are full of piety.
Ye Chen looked around and continued to send a message to Li Fengyu: "There may be some commotion later, we will act according to the situation!"
