But as soon as he finished speaking, another violent vibration began to occur. This time, their feelings became more clear.
"This is coming from below us!" Fatty Xu said immediately.
The rest of the people nodded immediately. The situation they felt was exactly the same as Fatty Xu's.
"Leave this palace first!" After Zhao Ling said that, he turned into a ray of light and rushed towards the palace gate.
Mo Ye and others immediately followed. As they rushed towards the palace gate, an extremely terrifying aura suddenly burst out from behind them.
The pressure brought by this aura was too powerful, and the spiritual power in their bodies instantly stagnated under the influence of this pressure.
What exactly appeared behind?
"Don't stop!" Zhao Ling's voice came from the front.
Due to the stagnation of spiritual power in the body, everyone's speed also dropped a lot instantly. However, after a few breaths, they still managed to rush out of the palace gate.
The moment he rushed out of the palace, the suffocating pressure disappeared without a trace.
Mo Ye and the other six monks who had opened the spiritual realm began to sweat from their backs. Such a terrifying aura was probably far beyond the scope of the spiritual liquid realm.
"Continue to stay away!" Zhao Ling spoke again.
Following Zhao Ling, they soon arrived at a high ground three miles away. From this place, they could clearly see the entire palace.
"There are spiritual elixir-level existences there, which are no longer within our control!" Looking at the palace from a distance, a trace of solemnity flashed in Zhao Ling's eyes.
He immediately took out the Academy Token and spread the news.
"I have reported this matter to the academy, and the academy will soon send out powerful men in the spiritual elixir realm to solve the problem." Zhao Ling said to the people beside him.
"How long does it take for the powerful men from the academy to arrive?" Xu Ling asked.
"According to the fastest speed, it will take five or six days to reach the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts. As for reaching where we are, it will take at least two days to travel at full speed," Zhao Ling replied.
.
"I hope that thing won't revive so soon." Xu Ling looked at the palace in the distance with some worry.
"This palace is probably used to suppress that thing. With the existence of this palace, it should be able to delay a lot of time." Fatty Xu said.
"Brother Wu, those people in the Wentian Academy are really greedy for life and afraid of death. If anything happens, they will be scared to death!" One of the late-stage spiritual fluid realm monks on the second floor of the palace said with a smile.
After hearing this, the monk surnamed Wu, who was in the late stage of the spiritual liquid realm, showed a trace of hesitation on his face: "Brother Xu, I also have a bad feeling now..."
"Really, you have just been in contact with that group of people, and you have become timid?" After hearing this, the monk surnamed Xu laughed.
"That's right, what does Brother Wu have to worry about? Let's wait until the people below come up and we can work together to solve it!" A group of people immediately agreed and laughed.
"Let's go to the third floor first. We have already picked up so many treasures on the second floor, and the things on the third floor must be even richer. If those people from Wentian Academy retreated midway, wouldn't they have wasted this good opportunity?
Give it to us?" The monk surnamed Xu smiled and took the lead in walking towards the stairs leading to the third floor.
When a group of people gathered in front of the stairs, the monk surnamed Xu waved his hand, and a mask of light appeared, covering the nine of them.
After climbing the first step, they began to look around suspiciously.
"Why did the icy cold wind around here disappear?"
When they had just arrived at the second floor of the palace, they tentatively climbed the steps here. At that time, a large amount of icy cold wind also appeared around them.
But now, the surrounding space is completely empty, and there is no icy cold wind at all.
At this time, seeing such changes, they felt something was wrong in their hearts.
"Let's climb to the third floor as soon as possible, and after collecting the treasures, leave this place as soon as possible!" The smile on the face of the monk surnamed Xu also disappeared.
Those who came to Wentian Academy must have really noticed something.
The group of people quickly walked up the stairs and reached the third floor of the palace.
As soon as they arrived at the third floor of the palace, a strong aura rushed toward them. Only then did they realize that the entire third floor was filled with a strong aura.
"That's..." Their eyes fell on the center of the entire third-level space.
There is a long sword there, and most of the sword body has sunk into the ground. From the exposed part, it can be seen that the long sword is completely made of frost.
The rich aura that fills the entire third level is emanated from this long sword. On the exposed body of this long sword, there is a stream of light constantly turning.
"Could it be Xuan Bing?" Their eyes immediately became hot.
Xuanbing is an extremely precious spiritual material. It can only be found in places that have been frozen for many years.
For cultivators of the ice attribute, black ice can be said to be the most coveted treasure. A piece of black ice the size of a thumb is enough for them to obtain a powerful spiritual weapon.
The long sword in front of me is obviously made entirely of black ice, and its preciousness is even more unimaginable.
Looking at this long sword, their breathing became heavier.
Just selling such a treasure can cause countless strong people to compete for it.
By that time, they will also have access to a large amount of cultivation resources, and they will no longer have to worry about resources every day like they do now.
They began to approach the long sword, but as they approached, they did not feel the oppression brought by this object, but only felt the increasingly rich aura around them.
They thought there would be danger when they got close to the sword, but in fact, they quickly arrived in front of the sword safely.
The monk surnamed Xu stretched out his hand and grabbed the hilt of the long sword. Slowly applying force, he gradually pulled out the long sword.
"It is indeed a good treasure!" The monk surnamed Xu waved the Xuanbing sword in his hand and laughed.
With his strength, it is still a bit reluctant to wield the long sword in his hand. I am afraid that if he wants to activate it, he must at least reach the spiritual elixir level.
In this third level, the only thing that exists is the long sword in his hand.
The monk surnamed Xu had a thought in his mind and tried to put the long sword in his hand into the storage ring.
However, an invisible resistance emerged from inside the long sword, preventing him from putting it into the storage ring.
"I can only take it and leave." Since they can't store the storage ring, they can only hold it in their hands. But if they hold such a precious thing in their hands, it will definitely cause a large number of monks to rob it.
Grabbing their swords, they began to prepare to leave.
When they walked along the stairs to the second floor, they did not notice that a formation quickly appeared on the ground of the entire third floor. After the formation appeared, it quickly disappeared.
Underground in the palace, in that dark space, countless icy cold winds were flying.
These strong winds continuously hit the surface of a behemoth. The strong winds that made Zhao Ling feel very difficult to deal with only caused a series of sparks on the surface of this behemoth.
As time went by, the aura emitted by the behemoth became more and more terrifying. However, due to the isolation of the entire dark space, this terrifying aura did not escape to the outside world, but stayed in this space.
"Dong...dong..."
The sound of a strong and powerful heartbeat is constantly echoing in this dark space.
It can be seen that on the surface of the behemoth, chains made of frost have replaced the previous spiritual patterns, restricting its movements.
However, with the passage of time, the energy contained within these chains is being rapidly consumed. It will not take long for these chains to disintegrate on their own. By that time, nothing will be able to restrain the actions of this behemoth.
Suddenly, the icy cold atmosphere in the entire dark space began to decline rapidly. The icy cold wind became less and less, and the chains began to disintegrate and turned into countless ice shards.
"Roar!" A deep voice began to echo throughout the dark space.
A pair of huge gray eyes slowly opened, and strange fluctuations began to come from inside.
At this moment, black shadows rushed out from every corner of the monument and screamed.
Then, these dark shadows began to gather towards the core area of the monument.
And those dark figures in the core area of the ancient ruins began to rush towards the area where the palace was located.
"It's really strange. There is no strong wind on the stairs between the first and second floors!" The monk surnamed Xu's voice sounded from the first floor of the palace.
By this time, they had arrived on the stairs between the first and second floors.
Going down to the first floor, they quickly discovered what Mo Ye and the others had seen before.
"Let's leave quickly, this place is probably going to change!" the monk surnamed Wu frowned.
"Look at the ground!" Just after taking a few steps, a spiritually-opening monk next to him exclaimed.
Everyone looked down and saw an extremely complicated formation emerging from the ground they were stepping on.
Along with the formation, there was also an unusually terrifying aura.
"What is this aura?" The faces of the nine people suddenly changed.
The appearance of this breath brought them an extremely strong sense of oppression. Even their breathing began to have difficulty.
But they didn't know that what escaped was only a small part of the breath emitted by the huge thing. More of the breath of this thing was still bound in that dark space.
The Xuanbing sword in the hands of the monk surnamed Xu began to glow slightly, and this change also made them completely react.
"Let's go!" The nine people immediately accelerated and rushed out of the palace gate in embarrassment. (To be continued)
