If that giant stone god statue was here,
He could just take a few quick steps. But now it was left in the Imperial City by Xie Lian to suppress the evil spirit.
Those three mountain monsters had also turned into swords, so it was better not to come.
Xie Lian said, "San Lang, can the silver butterfly fly us over?"
Hua Cheng said, "The magma is scorching hot. I'm afraid the silver butterfly will melt halfway across the river."
Halfway across the river, falling from the sky,
Falling head first into the center of the magma flow,
That wouldn't look good. Hua Cheng said again, "However,
There's a ready-made passage. "
Everyone followed his gaze. After a while, Xie Lian said, "Why are there people in the magma?"
It was absolutely true,
He definitely didn't see wrong. Just now, in that instant,
He saw a deathly pale hand emerge from the magma, reaching towards the sky. He looked again carefully,
Mu Qing said, "There really is! And there's more than one? "
There were at least hundreds or thousands of people,
Many bodies and heads were floating on the surface of the river, some were spinning by the flow of fire,
Some were even swimming upstream against the current. Their bodies were all a strange white color, their faces blurry,
Not living people.
Xie Lian understood, "It's those hollow people in Wuyong Imperial City … … who were washed here by the magma."
With their skills, they could use these hollow freaks as stepping stones.
They would fly over and step over,
It shouldn't be difficult. It's just that these undead were struggling in the scorching heat, and they would be stepped on again. It was quite miserable.
But right now, they couldn't care about this.
Mu Qing took the lead and checked his position. After a few leaps, he crossed the moat and stood on the other side of the river. He turned around and looked in their direction. Xie Lian said to the State Preceptor, "I'll send you over first."
After all, the State Preceptor wasn't a martial god, and he wasn't even a martial artist. He needed someone to carry him. He nodded and went forward. However, Hua Cheng said, "Brother, let me do it."
Letting nature take its course, Xie Lian said, "Okay."
Hua Cheng walked up and supported the State Preceptor's arm like an old man, saying, "State Preceptor, please. Pay attention to your feet. "
The State Preceptor turned his head and saw that the person supporting him wasn't Xie Lian. He frowned and said, "Ah? Why are you here? "
Xie Lian couldn't help but laugh. He coughed lightly and said, "San Lang very sincerely said he wanted to help you up, so I let him do it for me."
The State Preceptor said, "Why are you being so solicitous for no reason?"
Hua Cheng's face was full of smiles as he said, "There's no difference between me and my brother. Besides, I respect you very much. Of course, I wouldn't mind helping you out. "
The Imperial Preceptor was speechless for a moment before he said, "If you really respect me, then keep that fake smile on your face. It's too fake."
Hua Cheng immediately stopped smiling. "Oh." Without another word, he brought the Imperial Preceptor and moved to the other side of the river.
His movements were strange and fast. Before the Imperial Preceptor could react, he was already standing beside Mu Qing. He was completely stunned. The empty shells that were stepped on by Hua Cheng's boots didn't even realize that they had been stepped on. When they looked up and saw nothing, they scratched their heads in confusion and continued to swim in the lava. The Imperial Preceptor finally came back to his senses. He glanced at Hua Cheng and evaluated, "His skills are not bad."
On the other side, Xie Lian thought, "Too strict. How can this kind of skill be called 'not bad'?" Shaking his head, he said, "I'm going over too!"
Hua Cheng turned around and said, "Brother, you stay over there first. I'll come over to pick you up."
However, Xie Lian's actions were faster than his words. He had long since moved. Leaping up, he tapped on the stomach of an empty shell monster that was facing the sky. He felt the hard body under his feet sink slightly, but he had already leaped up again and tapped on the head of another empty shell monster in front of him.
Just like that, after stepping on five or six monsters, he arrived at the center of the lava flow. Unexpectedly, just as Xie Lian was about to soar into the air again, his body suddenly sank and he almost lost his balance!
Relying on his incomparably quick reaction, he steadied himself and looked down — — the monster under his feet had actually reached out and grabbed his boots!
Xie Lian thought to himself, "Oh no, it's coming again!"
His terrible luck had come again. The few people in front of him were all safe and sound when they crossed the river, but the moment he crossed, he encountered a monster that wasn't easy to deal with. That monster grabbed his right ankle and didn't let him get up!
That empty shell monster was only able to float on the surface of the lava because it was hollow, but it still couldn't bear much weight. Scorching air rose up, steaming Xie Lian until his entire body was covered in sweat. A corner of his sleeve had actually caught on fire.
If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would either sink into the lava together with the stone he was stepping on, or his entire body would burn up!
At this critical moment, Xie Lian was quick-witted. Ruo Xie flew out and pulled over the other empty shell monster that was thirty feet in front of him. His left foot stepped on that monster's back. In this way, the two stone shells shared his weight, increasing his buoyancy. For a while, he wouldn't be able to sink. Only then did Xie Lian pull out his maiden heart and cut off the arm that was grabbing his boots. Just as he was about to leap out again, a red shadow flashed to his side. Xie Lian said, "San Lang? I'm already fine, you don't need to come over. "
From afar, Hua Cheng exploded the empty shell monster that was grabbing Xie Lian and said, "Let's go ashore first."
The two of them went ashore together. Xie Lian extinguished the fire on his sleeve and said, "I'm sorry, I made you worry."
Hua Cheng said, "It's my fault. I should have told you to wait for me to pick you up before going over. "
The State Preceptor said, "Alright, alright, stop. His Highness isn't that delicate. Even if you don't go over, he can still handle it. What's there to pick? Let's go! This way. "
The few of them went ashore and walked for a while before arriving in front of the Wu Yong Imperial Palace.
Half of the Imperial Palace was buried in the ground. After the few of them entered, the road was sloping, leading all the way to the depths of the underground.
After leaving the ground, the scorching hot air gradually cooled down. The entire underground palace was empty. The slightest sound would produce a buzzing echo.
The few of them ignited the flames in their palms, illuminating the surroundings. Although this Imperial Palace had been sealed for a long time, it could still be considered magnificent. The light from the flames reflected many dazzling golden patterns, richly ornamented beams and painted rafters. However, there wasn't a single person in sight. The atmosphere was lifeless, like a huge ancient tomb.
The State Preceptor said, "This is the place where His Highness the Crown Prince grew up."
Mu Qing said, "Is he really here?"
The State Preceptor said, "What do you think? This is the place where his powers are the strongest. Everyone, be careful. "
At this time, Xie Lian suddenly discovered something.
At Hua Cheng's waist, the silver eyeball on the hilt of the Misfortune Blade was madly spinning, abnormally anxious.
However, Hua Cheng's expression was cold, completely ignoring it. Xie Lian couldn't help but reach out to touch it. Only then did the Misfortune Blade slightly calm down. Hua Cheng slightly lowered his head and saw that Xie Lian's hand was still on the hilt of the blade. He faintly smiled and was about to open his mouth. At this moment, a giggle came from the corner of the main hall.
It was the voice of a middle-aged man. Crafty and cunning, as if harboring bad intentions. When Xie Lian heard it, the hairs on his back immediately stood up. Moreover, he had heard this voice before.
It was the voice of the fetus!
Mu Qing shouted, "Over there!" A flame shot out, illuminating the area above them. At the corner of the high ceiling of the palace, there was a glistening white thing stuck to it like a gecko. It was the fetus!
Its long bright red tongue licked his back as if it was tickling him. Seeing the flame fly over, it mischievously laughed and vomited something that looked like vomit at Mu Qing. Mu Qing dodged it with a disgusted expression. The State Preceptor looked at the sticky thing on the ground, then looked at the fetus on top. He found it hard to accept and said, "Is this really that brat Feng Xin's son???"
Xie Lian hurriedly said, "Wait! Wrong, wrong! You called him wrong, right? "
When the fetus heard its name, it paused for a moment and turned around to look at him. Xie Lian said, "Wrong, wrong. We came to find … … find … … find your father. Do you know where he is? "
When the fetus heard 'your father', it sneered and used all four of its legs to crawl away. Xie Lian said, "Wrong, wrong? Quickly find it! "
Everyone burned the flame even higher and searched all around. Suddenly, Mu Qing said, "This way!"
Xie Lian asked, "Which way?"
Mu Qing pointed at a path and said, "I just saw it enter this place."
The path he pointed at led to the side of a palace. It was a long and gloomy corridor. Even if they didn't know where the end was, they knew it definitely wouldn't lead to a good place.
Hua Cheng suddenly said, "You really saw it enter this place?"
Mu Qing probably felt that he was being targeted and said with a bit of disgust, "What benefit would I get from lying to you guys?"
Hua Cheng let out a 'ha'. Although he didn't carry any emotion, he wasn't too friendly either. The State Preceptor said, "What are you arguing about at this time? If you see any suspicious places, don't let them go. It's fine if you go in and take a look. "
That long corridor was extremely narrow. Originally, it was definitely wider, but it seemed to have been squeezed. Now, only one person could pass through. Mu Qing was probably the first to enter, probably because he was angry at the suspicion in Hua Cheng's words. Naturally, Hua Cheng walked in front of Xie Lian to open the path. However, Xie Lian discovered that the eyeball of misfortune on his waist had begun to spin wildly. His heart stirred and he immediately pulled Hua Cheng behind him. Hua Cheng asked, "What's wrong?"
Xie Lian coughed lightly and said, "I said I would protect you … … stand behind me."
In a flash, Hua Cheng laughed softly.
The four of them entered the long corridor. The deeper they walked, the more uncomfortable Xie Lian felt.
When it came to dangerous things, his intuition was extremely accurate. The thing that made him uncomfortable came from the front. Xie Lian said, "State Preceptor, do you remember where this path leads to? Why is it that the more I walk, the more I feel that there's something very heavy … … "
Murderous aura.
Moreover, it wasn't a living murderous aura, but an icy cold murderous aura. The deeper they went, the more tense his mind became.
However, the State Preceptor didn't answer him. Xie Lian's heart thumped and he raised his voice to ask, "State Preceptor?"
There was still no answer. Xie Lian suddenly turned his head to look. He didn't know when, but there was actually no one behind him anymore!
The reason why he didn't notice was because the lights released by Hua Cheng and the State Preceptor were still floating in the air, faintly following him and illuminating the path ahead for their masters who had already disappeared.
Mu Qing also turned his head. When he saw it, he was shocked. "Where's Blood Rain Tanhua?!"
Without another word, Xie Lian turned around and walked back. Mu Qing grabbed him and said, "What are you doing? We're almost there! Furthermore, do you really think he'll go back? "
"… …" Xie Lian said. "He won't."
It was precisely because Hua Cheng absolutely wouldn't go back by himself without saying a word that it was terrifying!
Xie Lian suddenly remembered that Hua Cheng had left something on his body. He hurriedly raised his hand to take a look. He saw that the red line on the third finger was still there. It was still as bright as before, indicating that Hua Cheng was fine. Only then did Xie Lian let out a sigh of relief. However, when he thought of the dot that Hua Cheng had thrown out before coming over, his eyebrows jumped even more violently.
Mu Qing then said, "Even if you go back now, you most likely won't be able to find it. It's better to continue walking forward and see what's inside. Otherwise, if you go back and find nothing, wouldn't you have to come back again? Wouldn't that be a waste of time? "
Xie Lian was about to speak when he suddenly held his breath and said, "Shh. Listen, what's that sound? "
Mu Qing also attentively listened.
That was the sound of a man's low breathing.
It was coming from ahead!
The two of them were extremely vigilant. Both of them secretly gripped their weapons and walked forward.
They finally walked out of the long corridor and arrived inside a palace hall. Mu Qing carefully fumbled around inside the palace hall. Xie Lian flicked his finger and a small flame faintly flew forward. In an instant, it illuminated the figure of a person lying on the ground.
As soon as he saw that person's back, Xie Lian recognized him. He walked over and said, "Feng Xin?!"
He turned him over and sure enough, it was Feng Xin. His body was covered in burns and sword wounds, but his life shouldn't be in danger. Xie Lian carefully patted him for a while before he slowly woke up. As soon as he woke up, he cursed a few times. When he saw that the person in front of him was Xie Lian, he immediately stopped cursing. "Your Highness?? Why are you here? "
Xie Lian sighed and said, "Why don't you first tell me where this place is."
Feng Xin sat up and looked around before asking, "Where is this place?"
Sure enough, Feng Xin didn't know either. He asked in vain. Xie Lian shook his head and extended his hand. "Get up first. Now that I've found you, I need to find San Lang. "
Feng Xin asked, "Did you say Blood Rain Tanhua? What happened to him? Isn't he beside you? "
Xie Lian said, "It's like this. Let's go together … …"
Before he finished speaking, Feng Xin suddenly raised his hand and said, "Wait! Who's that person behind you?! "
Xie Lian turned around and saw a black silhouette immersed in the shadows. Motionless, Xie Lian said, "That's Mu Qing. What's wrong? "
