Long Yu stepped into this magnificent palace and found that there were some mechanisms set up in the passageway. However, perhaps it was because of the aura of the Nine Nether Mark on Long Yu's body, none of these mechanisms were activated.
Of course, it was also possible that too much time had passed and these mechanisms were already old and ineffective …
Long Yu carried Ye Ziwei and quickly passed through this passageway that was a few miles long and stepped into a small palace. There were actually a few petrified statues in this palace. These statues looked rather strange, like some different forms of Demon Cultivators.
When Long Yu entered this small palace, these statues suddenly seemed to come alive and released an extremely shocking aura – these statues were actually all existences at the level of the Emperor. Moreover, they could sense the arrival of others and thus came to life!
This scene gave Long Yu a big shock. Fortunately, he found that the Nine Nether Mark contained a special kind of power. This power seemed to be able to control these statues.
"I'm rich. This place is definitely an escape route that the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor left for himself! "
Long Yu tried to directly control the movements of the four statues and found that it was indeed feasible. In his heart, he was even more certain of his guess. This space was completely a palace that the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor had built for himself when he was still alive.
If others came in, there would be many sealed statues of Demon Cultivators and strange beasts that would fight for him!
In this way, even if his martial arts realm was very low after he borrowed this body to be reborn, he could hide in this place to recuperate and slowly cultivate. Then, he could once again become an overlord!
Long Yu observed the four statues. Among them, there was a statue of a fish head and a human body, a statue of a bird man with wings, a statue of a six-legged black bear, and a statue of a beetle.
These four statues, under Long Yu's control, kept moving and even began to attack each other. However, they were quickly ordered by Long Yu to stop attacking each other. After all, these statues could be controlled by the Nine Nether Mark and were one of Long Yu's killer weapons.
The four statues all had the power of a One-star Emperor. If they were to fight head-on, Long Yu would not be a match for any of them.
"I wonder how many of these statues there are in this palace. If I were to recruit all of them, wouldn't my battle prowess be terrifying?"
Long Yu thought to himself. However, he was soon disappointed because he discovered that the four statues couldn't leave this small palace. In other words, the four statues could only guard this small palace and couldn't command them to go anywhere else.
"They are only defensive statues. What a pity."
Long Yu shook his head and continued forward with Ye Ziwei in his arms. This was because his target was the deepest part of the grand palace, not this small hall.
After he left the small hall, he stepped into another passageway. The four statues that had come to life in the small hall seemed to have been frozen once again, completely petrified.
Most likely, when other people arrive, these four statues will come to life again and attack the invaders. This place could very well be used by Long Yu as his base!
To be able to hide the Earth God race's holy relic in such a place, Jiuyou Dragon Emperor is quite impressive. Even if the Earth God race beasts that would be suppressed in Shen Wu world found this palace, they wouldn't be able to pass through all the obstacles in this palace and obtain the final Earth God race's holy relic!
Jiuyou Dragon Emperor probably never thought that he would fail to reincarnate in this body and instead benefit Long Yu …
Very quickly, Long Yu followed the passageway and arrived at a slightly larger palace. This palace also had four statues of different shapes and sizes, all of them were at the level of a Two-star Emperor. They could also be controlled by the Nine Serenities Mark and fight for Long Yu.
Long Yu didn't stop and carried Ye Ziwei towards the deepest part of the palace.
…
Just four hours after Long Yu stepped into the huge and magnificent palace.
The dome above the palace suddenly flashed with the power of Spatial Divine Runes, breaking the spatial seal of the entire underground space!
Immediately afterward, a large group of Earth God mutated beasts emerged from the spatial passageway. The ones leading them were all Sovereign Emperor level mutated beasts. There were several hundred of them, and every single one of them was extremely mighty. Moreover, one could sense the excitement and agitation of these mutated beasts.
This wasn't their fault, as the entire Earth God race had been searching for the holy relic for over ten million years had finally been found by them, how could they not be excited?
Following that, a group of a few dozen human and beast cultivators were also brought into this underground space by the Earth God race beasts.
From the looks of it, the Earth God race beasts seemed to want these human and beast cultivators to become their sacrificial pawns to test out their traps — — they obviously weren't stupid, they knew that a place like this where their holy relic was buried might have a lot of traps.
Therefore, Tan Xiuya, Su Chen, and the others, whom they had set up an ambush to capture alive, had all become their puppets, and were treated as trap testers.
Among the hundreds of Earth God race beasts, there was actually a Five-star Emperor level existence. Under the command of this Earth God race beast, one of the Three Star Emperor level beasts released the aura of Desolate Divine Runes, forcing a One-star Emperor level member of the Alliance of Five Emperors to fly towards the huge palace below.
Facing a total of 75 entrances, the beast hesitated for a moment, then directly forced the One-star Emperor level member of the Alliance of Five Emperors into the first passageway — — these beasts obviously wanted to test it one by one!
Following that, another beast forced another member of the Alliance of Five Emperors into another passageway …
Even Ju Tian and the others, who had gone to investigate before Long Yu and the others were ambushed, were all captured by the Earth God race beasts. There were a total of 51 people, and they were all forced into their own passageways by these beasts.
Until now, why didn't these 51 people know what was going on?
This operation had been a trap from the beginning to the end!
When Ju Tian was escorted into the fifteenth passageway, his face was full of anger. Even though he had the abilities of a Two-star Emperor, held a high position in the Alliance of Five Emperors, and had done many things for the Alliance of Five Emperors, he had now become a prisoner of the Earth God race beasts!
Moreover, he would be forced into this palace ruins by these Earth God race beasts, and he would be used as cannon fodder to scout the way …
"I finally understand. The participants of this operation are all people who don't get along with the Battle Emperor, including Su Chen and Tan Xiuya. Everyone's existence is of no benefit to the Battle Emperor. I didn't expect the Battle Emperor to set up such a trap and capture all of us …"
Ju Tian's heart was bleeding.
He didn't think that the Battle Emperor was colluding with the Earth God race beasts. After all, they were from different clans, and there was no possibility of peaceful communication. However, most of the information provided by the Battle Emperor was fake.
What did he mean by this place being safe?
There weren't any powerful Earth God race beasts?
To hell with it!
Then what was up with these Four Star Emperor and Five Star Emperor level Earth God race beasts?
In reality, before they set off, Ju Tian didn't believe the Battle Emperor, but a good friend of his of many years. It was his good friend who was in charge of investigating the situation in this place and obtaining all the information.
Now, it seemed like his good friend was cooperating with the Battle Emperor to lie and deceive them into coming here to die.
"This is the life of more than 50 people, and every one of them is a pillar of the Alliance of Five Emperors. Battle Emperor, you are actually willing to do this …"
Ju Tian's hatred for the Battle Thearch could be said to be at an extreme level. The entire operation was suggested by the Battle Thearch. Initially, he didn't realize that the people participating in the operation were all unrelated to the Battle Thearch. Now, from the looks of it, this was all a trap set up by the Battle Thearch.
Ju Tian knew that the Battle Emperor might attack Long Yu during the operation, but he didn't expect that the Battle Emperor's target was all of them!
Even though Ju Tian had realized this, he was powerless to reverse the situation. He could only become a tool for the Earth God race beasts to investigate the possible traps in this palace.
Now, Ju Tian could only hope that there weren't any traps in this palace so that he could survive for a longer period of time. That way, he would have more opportunities to think about escaping.
Even though the chances were slim, Ju Tian wouldn't give up. Even though he had never experienced such a hopeless situation, he had faced many life-threatening situations. He definitely wouldn't give up until the very last moment.
Ju Tian was forced to move forward by a Four-star Emperor Earth God race beast, and he didn't encounter any dangerous situations along the way.
However, just as he was moving forward, an extremely terrifying force suddenly exploded from behind him, giving him a fright. He thought that he had stepped into a trap, or that the Earth God race beast was going to attack him.
But when he used his probing magic power to extend behind him, he discovered that this wasn't the case — in fact, there were actually two pitch-black destructive light pillars that suddenly erupted from the side of the wall and directly blasted that Four-star Imperial Monarch level Earth God beast into pieces. Not even a trace of it was left!
"Is this the trap in the palace ruins?"
Ju Tian's heart raced. The Earth God race beast that was guarding him had been killed. Didn't that mean that he was free now?
Of course, he couldn't retreat. After all, there were still other Earth God race beasts guarding outside the palace. However, he wouldn't be forced to explore this dangerous tunnel anymore!
Ju Tian didn't know how the Earth God race beast had triggered that terrifying trap. Hence, he didn't dare to move recklessly until another Earth God race beast stepped into this tunnel.
Ju Tian knew that he couldn't stay where he was. Hence, he carefully ran towards the depths of the tunnel and quickly arrived at a small palace.
In this hall, there were four statues of different shapes, and they seemed to be very old.
