Should they stay and take the treasures out safely, or should they risk their lives to continue searching for more precious treasures?
"I give up," a deacon of the Four Cities Alliance shouted and sat on the ground.
"I give up too …"
Soon, four or five people chose to give up.
"Zhou Yang, I give up too. The path ahead doesn't belong to me …" Lady Jiu said to Zhou Yang and chose to give up too.
Zhou Yang nodded. Lady Jiu's only goal in entering the Black Scale Cave was to break the shackles. Now that she had achieved her goal, there was no need to continue risking her life.
Looking around, he saw that there were only four city lords and a few elders left on the side of the four great cities. The Demon Dweller side had also lost three people, but no one from the Xu Family chose to give up, and on his side, there were four people.
He, Lone Wolf, Invincible Jin, and Yue Siqin!
"Rumble …"
Suddenly, a pitch-black tunnel appeared on the ground, emitting an aura that would make one's entire body tremble.
"If you want to obtain the Nine Great Inheritances and obtain the final treasure of the Black Scale Cave, you must walk down the tunnel within three minutes. After three minutes, the tunnel will close."
His voice seemed to have a strange magical power, causing all the people who thirsted for treasures to involuntarily become excited.
The Nine Great Inheritances, the final treasure!
"Wealth comes from danger. If you're a coward, then scram. I'm going first," Xu Cangshan shouted and walked down first.
With the first one, the others didn't hesitate. The Four Cities Alliance and the demon dwellers also entered one after another.
"Zhou Yang, if I die down there, tell my brother for me and let him inherit my position as the young master," Invincible Jin pleaded.
"Okay, I promise you." Zhou Yang nodded. He was also full of uncertainty about what would happen down there. Even he didn't have a hundred percent guarantee that he would survive.
"I don't have any last words. I'm all alone anyway," Yue Siqin shrugged.
"Let's go!"
Lone Wolf only said one word and walked in with a gloomy face.
Zhou Yang realized that ever since Lone Wolf came to the Celestial Treasure Palace, his eyes had become gloomier. It seemed to be related to Luo Pofeng.
Luo Pofeng was Lone Wolf's biological father, but because he was drunk, he never acknowledged Lone Wolf's identity and even suppressed him. Although his experience was different from Lone Wolf's, he could understand this feeling.
A moment later, Zhou Yang entered the tunnel as well. The moment he entered, the door behind him closed. Waves of bone-chilling aura assaulted his body. The deeper he went, the more intense the feeling became.
"Zhou Yang, do you feel the power in your body flowing out?"
Yue Siqin turned around and asked.
Zhou Yang frowned. He did have this feeling. He thought it might be an illusion, but after hearing what Yue Siqin said, he realized that not only was the True Qi in his body draining away, but even his vitality seemed to be slowly draining away.
However, this speed was extremely slow. If one didn't sense it carefully, they wouldn't be able to sense it.
Boom!
Suddenly, a gate opened up ahead, and nine-colored light shone from within.
"The exit is here!"
The people in front were overjoyed and they all rushed towards the door. Although Zhou Yang was puzzled, he didn't think too much about it. However, the moment he entered the door, the door closed. Moreover, it was so tightly shut that there wasn't even a crack to be found.
"So cold …" Yue Siqin said nervously.
Cold!
"This is not cold, but the aura of death!" Zhou Yang's voice was solemn. Now, he could feel the loss of his vitality even more clearly.
"There is a magical power here that is absorbing our vitality," He Zhen said in horror.
"Not only that, I can't even use my cultivation." Rising Sun City Lord Qian Wei frowned.
Zhou Yang immediately activated his cultivation method. As expected, just as Qian Wei had said, the True Qi in his body seemed to be frozen by something. Although he could clearly feel it, he couldn't use it.
"Earlier, I wanted to use True Qi to drive away the cold, but I couldn't. I thought I was the only one like this. So, this is the case for everyone," Yue Siqin said worriedly.
"Instead of standing here in fear, why don't we find the exit?" The leader of the demon's side sneered and immediately led his people forward.
The nine-colored space wasn't big. They walked around and soon reached the center.
"Everyone, look at this Nine Palace Diagram. Doesn't it look familiar?" He Lanshan looked at the Nine Palace Diagram stone floating in the middle.
"This Nine Palace Diagram is made up of nine diagrams, but it seems that only two are still up there. Where did the other seven go?" Luo Pofeng frowned.
"How stupid. Didn't you notice that the Nine Palace Diagram is very similar to the nine pieces of jade on top of the Black Demon Light?" The demon's leader said as he walked under the Nine Palace Diagram.
"But why do I remember that the Black Demon Light was made up of eight pieces of ancient jade? This is indeed the Nine Palace Diagram." He Lanshan frowned.
"That's because one of the jade was stolen."
After saying that, a totem jade appeared in the demon's hand. No one had time to think. After the jade appeared, the Nine Palace Diagram released a dazzling light. The next moment, a thin thread floated out of the totem jade and imprinted itself on the Nine Palace Diagram.
Weng …
After the Nine Palace Diagram sacrificed the thin thread, it released a soft light that enveloped the demon's leader.
"Everyone, I'll be going first." The demon's leader didn't seem surprised. Just as he spoke, the light flashed and he disappeared.
Everyone looked at each other. No one expected the totem jade to be the key.
Of course, Zhou Yang was an exception. He understood the Nine Palace Diagram at first glance.
This was because the pattern was exactly the same as the one he and Yue Siqin saw on the sealing array, but this time it was divided into nine parts.
As for the two parts that had obviously been completed, he was sure that they belonged to Xu Zhentian and Yi Wang. The two of them had entered the Black Scale Grotto-Heaven Treasure Inner Hall before, so the two inheritances that were bought from the beginning were obviously bought by them.
Weng …
Just at this moment, when everyone was still in shock, Zhou Xianxian also took out an ancient jade and disappeared quickly.
Xu Pengfei followed closely behind.
Both of them were very fast, and their expressions were very calm. It seemed that like the demon's leader, they already knew the rules.
"Rumble …"
Just when everyone came back to their senses, they saw that the light of the Nine Palace Diagram had deepened. Among the nine colors of light, five colors were particularly eye-catching.
"Oh no, the loss of vitality is accelerating, and much faster …" He Lanshan said in shock and fear.
In an instant, everyone present was stunned and revealed a nervous expression.
"Hmph, wait for your deaths here. I'll be leaving first."
Luo Pofeng glanced at everyone and an ancient totem jade appeared in his hand.
