Perhaps it was because they were going to enter the Heaven Wasteland Palace, but everyone cleared their space bracelets to leave more space for the treasures they found in the Heaven Wasteland Palace.
Therefore, in the space bracelets of the Black Shadow Sword Mansion student that he killed, Chu Mu only found a few bottles of Sword Qi recovery elixirs for internal and external injuries, as well as a few dozen pieces of Heaven Wasteland Roots.
"It's a pity that I didn't find the secret technique to release the Sword Qi," Chu Mu thought to himself. He was still very interested in such a secret technique to kill the opponent by surprise.
At that time, if not for the fact that his soul power was ten times stronger than that of an ordinary person, allowing him to immediately sense the fatal danger and quickly dodge and use the Dual Sword Technique, he would have been the one to die.
It was an extremely dangerous moment!
However, in the end, Chu Mu still killed the opponent. He just didn't know the opponent's ranking on the Black Eagle Sword Mansion's Bronze Sword Ranking.
Without knowing the direction, he could only continue forward from the beginning.
After a period of time, Chu Mu suddenly stopped in his tracks. This was because he saw the outline of a huge palace in the distance.
"Heaven Wasteland Palace …" Chu Mu murmured these four words. His eyes were filled with a trace of fire.
According to the elders, the Heaven Wasteland Fruit was located in the underground palace, and the Heaven Wasteland Fruit was a peerless treasure that could raise the grade of cultivation talent.
No matter what, even if he didn't obtain anything else, Chu Mu had to find the Heaven Wasteland Fruit and obtain it.
"As long as I can obtain the Heaven Wasteland Fruit, I can raise my cultivation talent to Grade Six or even higher. My potential will be deeper and it will be more helpful for cultivation." Secretly clenching his fists, Chu Mu immediately sped up and turned into a gust of wind that blew in the direction of the underground palace.
…
"That's the Heaven Wasteland Palace …"
"I finally see the Heaven Wasteland Palace."
"Haha, all the treasures in the underground palace are mine."
All over the Heaven Wasteland Territory, students and disciples from different forces also saw the shadow of the huge palace.
They didn't know whether it was because they kept moving forward or because the palace suddenly appeared. This wasn't the main point. In short, the underground palace appeared in front of them.
As the saying goes, 'Looking at a mountain is close to death'. After running for an entire hour, Chu Mu still hadn't neared the enormous palace. He only felt that the distance between him and the enormous palace hadn't shrunk.
After another hour, Chu Mu stopped. It was difficult for him to continue forward. In front of him was a valley that resembled an abyss. He was deeply shocked by what he saw.
Looking down, it was bottomless. There was only a frightening darkness that seemed boundless. Once one fell in, it was unknown whether one would survive.
The area of this valley was very large. It was circular and estimated to be hundreds of thousands of meters in diameter. In the center of the bottomless valley, there was a huge palace floating in the air. The palace was at least ten thousand meters long and wide. It was more majestic and domineering than an emperor's palace. It was also filled with an indescribable vicissitude and heaviness.
Everyone knew at a glance that it was the huge palace that they saw from afar. It was the palace that they thought was the Heaven Wasteland Palace.
But now that they were closer, they realized that it wasn't a real palace. It was just a projection, a projection of the real Heaven Wasteland Palace.
But because it was very solid, people mistook it for a real palace. But if they looked carefully, they could tell the difference.
"Is the real Heaven Wasteland Palace down there?" A swordsman pointed at the bottomless valley and said loudly.
"How do we go down there?" Someone asked with a pale face.
The bottomless valley gave people a terrifying feeling. No one knew what would happen if they went down. Maybe they wouldn't find the real Heaven Wasteland Palace. Instead, they would put themselves in a dangerous situation that they couldn't escape from.
"The real Heaven Wasteland Palace must be down there." Someone said with an incomparably certain tone.
"Then you go down and take a look." Someone next to him urged.
"You go down first. I'll go down later."
Although many people guessed that the Heaven Wasteland Palace was under this bottomless valley, no one dared to go down first. Speaking of which, even if they dared to go down, they had to have a way.
Did they have to jump down like this?
That wasn't a wise choice.
What's more, was the palace really down there? This was only a guess even in the ancient records.
Everyone was hesitant. Chu Mu was thinking, if he used the Sky Traversing Flying Secret Technique, would he be able to go down?
At this moment, the yellow-brown air flow hundreds of meters up in the sky suddenly accelerated and became regular. It flowed from afar to the huge palace shadow.
In an instant, a huge whirlpool appeared above the huge palace shadow. The whirlpool was dark brown and incomparably huge. The center of the whirlpool was facing the entire palace.
Then, everyone saw a dark brown energy shoot down from the center of the dark brown whirlpool. It was as if it wanted to penetrate the palace and shoot into it.
Within the dark brown energy, Chu Mu could faintly see some figures quickly enter the palace and disappear.
As the dark brown energy continued to pour into the palace, a rumbling sound gradually sounded. At first, it was very weak, but it gradually became louder. Not long after, it became as deafening as muffled thunder.
As if the sky was shaking and the earth was shaking, the entire huge palace became clearer and clearer as the dark brown energy poured in. It was as if it gradually turned from a shadow to a substance.
"Could it be that this palace is a real underground palace?" Someone asked with a look of horror.
No one answered him because no one knew. Even if the ancient records outside could record that the Heaven Wasteland Palace appeared once every three thousand years and could record what existed in the Heaven Wasteland Palace, they still did not know the secret of the Heaven Wasteland Palace.
The yellow-brown air flow in the sky continued to gather from afar and gradually became sparse. In the end, only the huge dark brown whirlpool above the palace was left. The dark brown energy was also constantly pouring into the palace. At this moment, the palace had already condensed into a substance.
"Unbelievable!"
When the dark brown energy was completely poured into the palace, there was not a trace of yellow-brown air flow in the sky. It all disappeared, leaving behind only nothingness. No one could tell what it was like.
The original palace shadow was now like a real palace. It floated motionlessly in the center of the valley, emitting a heavy and vicissitude overbearing aura that was even stronger than before.
Looking at this incomparably huge palace, everyone felt a sense of insignificance. In front of it, they were like ants.
Even if the palace was a real underground palace, how were they supposed to get there?
There were over a hundred thousand meters between where they stood and the edge of the palace. Even if they used secret techniques of flight, they would not be able to cross that distance.
This was because secret techniques of flight consumed a great deal of sword Qi. It would be impressive for a Qi Transformation cultivator to travel ten or twenty thousand meters at most, let alone over a hundred thousand meters.
However, if they did not go to the palace, where should they go?
Just as everyone was frowning in confusion, a strange sound suddenly rang out. From within the huge palace, chains suddenly flew out. The chains were like vipers coming out of their holes. They were extremely fast, and the sound of metal chains scraping against each other could be heard.
With a flash, the chains spanned over a hundred thousand meters and pierced into the edge of the valley with a thunderous force. Mud splattered and everyone felt that the ground under their feet was trembling. Every single chain was also vibrating due to inertia, letting out ear-piercing metal noises.
There were a total of a hundred and eight chains. Every single chain was black and filled with an ancient aura. Every single chain was as thick as a person's thigh.
"Do we have to use these chains to enter the palace?"
"It's at least over a hundred thousand meters. If we're not careful, we'll just fall and die."
If it was only a few thousand meters or ten thousand meters, no one would find it difficult. However, over a hundred thousand meters, just using these chains was extremely dangerous. No one dared to take the risk.
Slowly, the chains stopped vibrating and calmed down. Each and every one of them was stretched taut.
"A bunch of trash. You dare call yourselves geniuses? You don't even dare to use chains." A student from the Black Hawk Sword Mansion sneered in disdain. Soon after, his arms trembled and he soared into the air like an eagle. He leaped over a dozen meters and landed on a chain. Immediately afterwards, his feet quickly moved like a wheel as he sped up the chain towards the huge palace.
"The treasures of the underground palace are mine."
Since there was a first, there was naturally a second. One by one, they spread their bodies and landed on the chain like an eagle, a white crane, or a swimming fish. They quickly followed the chain towards the huge palace.
Some used their feet to run forward, while others leaped forward like fleas. Others used the tip of their toes to push off the chain and soared into the air. When they were dozens of meters in the air, they glided forward like bats.
All in all, in order to be the first to enter the palace, everyone displayed their abilities, fearing that they would fall behind others.
Chu Mu's body moved like a gust of wind. He landed on a chain and lightly pushed off the chain with the tip of his foot. Then, as if he were skating, he quickly slid forward. His speed was not slower than the others at all. In fact, he was even slightly faster than the others.
The Qi Transformation Realm swordsmen who entered the Heaven Wasteland through the giant bronze gate came from eight different camps. On average, there were close to a hundred people in each camp. In other words, there were more than seven hundred swordsmen entering the Heaven Wasteland.
Excluding a portion of those who had already died, there were at least six hundred people who wanted to use these 108 chains to enter the underground palace. The competition began now.
