Once the sword was unleashed, there was no turning back.
?
In the blink of an eye, the Hidden Mystic Sword arrived in front of the Three-Headed Hou. The Three-Headed Hou knew how powerful the Hidden Mystic Sword was, and it did not want to lose its last head to the Hidden Mystic Sword.
Thus, it let out a loud roar and stomped its front foot on the ground.
Bang!
The ground cracked open, and an ice wall rose from the ground to protect it.
Huala!
Like the sound of ripping silk, the ice wall was cut into two halves from the middle and collapsed with a loud crash. The Sword of Hidden Mystery's attack did not diminish, ruthlessly chopping down on the head of the Three-headed Viper.
Its horn shone brightly as it attempted to intercept.
Kacha!
The light shattered, and the Sword of Hidden Xuan happened to cut the horn in half. The Sword of Hidden Xuan continued downward, drawing a long line of blood on the head of the Three-headed Venomous Snake. The blood line extended all the way to its lower body.
The Three-headed Viper seemed to have been struck by a Body Fixing Spell. It stood there motionless, its eyes glazed over, and the aura of death rose up spontaneously, occupying its pupils.
Drip! Drip!
Drops of blood seeped out from the blood lines and landed on the ground. In an instant, the ground was dyed red. The blood followed the cracks and seeped into the ground.
Clang!
With a loud bang, the Three-headed Viper's body collapsed to the ground like a small mountain collapsing. It smashed into the ground and splashed everywhere, revealing the layer of ice underneath.
Not only were the walls of the palace covered in ice, but even the ground was also covered in ice. It was truly an ice cave.
The blood dyed the ice red and seeped into the ice. It was a strange sight.
Looking at the corpse of the Three-headed Venomous Snake, the few of them heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. However, Xiao Bai's expression was still extremely solemn because the mysterious power that suppressed him still hadn't disappeared. In fact, it hadn't weakened in the slightest.
This meant that killing the three Hou did not solve the problem.
He looked at the corpse of the Three-headed Viper and said in a deep voice, "There must be something else hidden here. Otherwise, the enemy wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to build such a palace in Sky City."
The others' expressions turned cold as they nodded in agreement.
Xiao Bai's words made sense.
But the key point was that there were no other living things in this palace, so what could be suppressing Xiao Bai?
"Since we've found something strange, let's split up and look for it." Tang Zheng was at his wit's end, so he said.
The others nodded and started searching in different corners.
As time passed, the restriction outside the palace weakened. If he continued to waste time, it was very likely that the enemy would discover his whereabouts, and it would not be easy to find King Wuling again.
However, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find anything. Other than ice, there was nothing else in the palace.
Tang Zheng slowly stopped and stared at the layer of ice on the ground. He didn't know how thick that layer of ice was.
An idea flashed through his mind, and he said thoughtfully, "Do you think there will be something under the ice?"
The walls of the palace were not thick. Only the ice layer on the ground was not too deep. If there was a problem, it could only fall on the ice layer below the ground.
This was a method of elimination. After eliminating all other impossible possibilities, there was only one possibility left.
The others were startled and stopped one after another. They stared at the ice on the ground and said, "Then are we going to break this ice?"
"That's right!" Tang Zheng decisively said.
"I'll do it!" Xiao Bai volunteered, "I want to see what kind of damned thing is hidden below that can actually suppress my strength."
Boom!
Xiao Bai stomped heavily on the ice. With a loud sound, the ice layer immediately cracked open, and then many thin cracks appeared.
Not long after, these cracks actually covered the entire ice layer. The Three Headed Venomous Snake's blood just happened to follow these cracks, quickly spreading deeper.
The blood dyed the entire ice layer red, causing the ice layer to release a strange red color.
Sou sou sou!
Icicles shot out from the ice layer one after another, accurately aiming at the group.
"Be careful!"
Tang Zheng shouted. The Hidden Profound Sword was unstoppable, shattering all the icicles that were shot at him.
The other three people were not injured, but they were all shocked. Everyone realized that the problem was indeed under the ice layer.
"The ice layer is changing again."
Suddenly, a cry of surprise sounded out. It was the fog that showed some clues.
The ice layer was actually like a small mountain, slowly rising from the ground, as if it was about to form an ice mountain.
"I'll deal with him." Tang Zheng roared, and the Hidden Profound Sword ruthlessly slashed at the ice layer. Ice sputtered and a large crack appeared.
Everyone's pupils shrank, and they all saw the scene under the crack at the same time.
There was actually a figure in the center of the ice layer.
"There's someone!"
Tang Zheng was shocked. He never thought that there would be a person under the ice layer. Who was this person? Was he dead or alive?
What did it have to do with the mysterious power that suppressed Xiao Bai?
Questions came one after another, but Tang Zheng was even more confused.
So, without any hesitation, he controlled the Hidden Profound Sword and tried to slash at the ice layer again.
"Who dares to break into the City in the Sky?"
However, a furious roar sounded outside the palace.
The few people were shocked. They knew that the restriction was gone. They were discovered by the enemy, and the enemy's main force must be waiting outside.
Sou!
A light flew in from the entrance of the palace. It was a shining ice sword. In a flash, it arrived in front of Tang Zheng.
He had to use the Hidden Profound Sword to meet the ice sword.
Clang!
There were no sparks, only the cold air burst out in all directions.
At the same time, the light at the entrance of the palace suddenly dimmed. The shadows blocked the entrance, and the exit was blocked.
They had just found a clue, and now they were discovered by the enemy. This was really not the right time. Tang Zheng secretly gritted his teeth. He knew that it would not be easy to figure out the mystery under the ice layer.
At this critical moment, the most important thing was to save the lives of the few people.
"Everyone be careful. If we can't beat them, we will retreat." Tang Zheng warned. He did not immediately retreat, which meant that he did not intend to return empty-handed. He was prepared to work harder to get more information. This was not a wasted trip.
The ice sword did not gain any advantage. It flew back and fell into the hands of a person. This person was tall and strong. He was very powerful. At first glance, it was obvious that he was a person of high status.
Tang Zheng was not in the mood to look. More of his attention was attracted to the figure in the ice layer. He was not willing to give up. Taking advantage of this gap, he finally used the Hidden Profound Sword again. He did not care about the threat of the person who came, and slashed at the ice layer.
"How dare you!" The person who came was livid. He was furious to the extreme. He roared, his voice like thunder.
Whoosh!
The ice sword flew out of his hand and stabbed at Tang Zheng's back.
"Don't hurt the master!" Xiao Bai was in a difficult position. Since this damned place suppressed his magic, and he could not use his flames normally, he had to use a new magic weapon.
The Bloodthirsty Scepter flew up, and a bloody light burst out. The blood on the ground quickly flew towards the Bloodthirsty Scepter and wrapped around it.
Suddenly, the Bloodthirsty Scepter seemed to have grown many times, and it stood in front of the ice sword.
Boom!
