Suppressing the throbbing in the depths of his heart, Xiao Chen said calmly, "I understand. You can tell me how to enter now, right?"
Ao Jiao did not say anything. She closed her clear eyes, revealing only her long eyelashes. Then, she slowly formed hand seals with her hands, and a faint white light spread out from her body.
The white light was like starlight, drifting and covering the entire space. As the white light spread out, interweaving lines appeared before Xiao Chen's eyes.
The lines were black and white, interweaving and flowing. Aside from the Blue Dragon palace, they cut the space in this place into pieces.
Xiao Chen was astonished. He could feel the most primitive truth and reason in the world from these two lines. It was like everything was born from them.
Ao Jiao opened her eyes and said, "White represents space, and black represents the world. As long as you do not touch these two lines, you will be able to pass through safely."
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up. He discovered that if he could find the pattern in which the two lines combined, he could pass through them without touching them.
"How incredible! How did you do it?" Xiao Chen praised sincerely. To be able to reveal space and time and find the weak points, it was truly incredible.
Ao Jiao smiled and said, "The Thunder King was only one step away from Sovereign Martial Emperor. Although he could not control space and time, he had touched the threshold.
"He suffered a great loss in this formation. After that, he spent a lot of time researching this formation. I am just using it. Remember, you only have one chance. If you fail, the sword Qi will immediately tear you apart. "
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and started to observe carefully. The black and white lines crisscrossed before him like they were on a Go board.
The dull lines became vivid in Xiao Chen's eyes. He also slowly understood the mysteries of space and time, gaining some comprehension in his heart.
"Xiu!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen moved. He did not hesitate to fly forward. Without any hesitation, he flew straight ahead.
The lines brushed past him. The white lines represented space and the black lines represented the world. As long as he touched any one of them, he would activate the Five-Element Absolute Sealing Formation.
Xiao Chen landed firmly and arrived before the Blue Dragon palace. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief. If he remembered correctly, there were no lines around the palace.
"Hu!"
The white light from Ao Jiao vanished. The visible lines of time and space turned into nothingness once more. Aside from the occasional junk in the air, there was nothing else.
The palace doors were tightly shut, and the steps were covered in a thick layer of dust. It had not been cleaned for a long time. This place looked like a desolate temple in the wilderness.
Xiao Chen looked at the doors and said, "There is no need to test the doors. Even with the strongest single-target attack, of the Thunder King, he could not move them.
Of Xiao Chen of the steps, Xiao Chen left footprints on the steps. "Ka ca!" Xiao Chen opened the doors of of of of.
The bronze doors were covered in dust. The instant the doors opened, the dust fell like snowflakes, landing on Xiao Chen.
Behind him, Ao Jiao's pretty face was filled with shock. Her bright eyes widened as she stammered, "You … you … why did you push it open?"
The doors were slightly ajar, not fully open. Xiao Chen peered through the crack and discovered that there were still lights flickering. It was not completely dark inside.
As for Ao Jiao's question, Xiao Chen could not figure it out. When he saw these doors, Xiao Chen felt like he had returned to his own home.
Xiao Chen very naturally pushed the doors open. He had never thought about not being able to enter. Could it be that he was not allowed to enter his own home?
Xiao Chen pushed hard, and the two bronze doors opened. The scenery of the first floor of the Blue Dragon palace appeared before his eyes.
There was an oil lamp on each of the four walls. It was unknown what the wick was made of. Unexpectedly, after burning for ten thousand years, they still did not extinguish.
When the doors opened, wind blew in, causing the flames to flicker continuously. The flickering flames made this ancient palace look even more mysterious.
The walls were dark yellow, and there were some murals carved on them. As he was far away, Xiao Chen could not make out what the murals were.
On the wall facing him, there was a painting. On the painting, there was a stalwart man in green clothes, but there was nothing else on the painting.
The azure-robed man had a saber hanging at his waist, and his right hand was on the saber hilt. However, his appearance was not clear.
There was a wooden table below the painting with a brocade box on it. Xiao Chen did not know what it contained.
Everything in the palace gave off a mysterious aura, deterring anyone from making a rash move.
When Xiao Chen looked down, he saw an extremely complicated formation carved in golden blood on the floor. A faint Emperor's Might came from it, making one's breathing hasty.
Xiao Chen quickly activated that trace of monarch bloodline. Only then did he feel better. As he continued looking, he saw a bright, transparent crystal embedded in the center of the formation.
Everything here seemed familiar. The various scenes made Xiao Chen feel dazzled. Finally, his gaze fixed on the painting. He could not help but walk forward, wanting to take a closer look.
Who exactly is the person in the painting?
"Don't go in yet."
Just as Xiao Chen raised his foot and was about to enter, Ao Jiao stopped him. Xiao Chen became more clear-headed. This was the Blue Dragon Palace that even the Thunder King could block. How could he enter so casually?
Ao Jiao pulled Xiao Chen back. Then, she closed the two bronze doors with a 'pa' sound again.
Feeling strange, Xiao Chen asked, "What are you trying to do?"
Ao Jiao looked somewhat depressed. She clenched her teeth and said, "I don't believe that this door can be opened so easily. Back then, the Thunder King's Strength Character Formula did not fail. With one saber strike, he could even kill a Rank 10 Demonic Beast."
She pulled Xiao Chen back a few steps before leaping up. Her jade-like hands glowed with a bright light, and a strong Quintessence gathered in her palm. Then, she pressed her palm against the bronze doors.
There was a loud sound, but the bronze doors did not budge at all. The huge force was like a stone sinking into the sea, not causing any ripples.
"Bang!
Bang! Bang! "Ao Jiao pressed her palm a few more times. However, the bronze doors did not budge at all.
Only then did she withdraw her palm in satisfaction. A crafty look flashed in her eyes as she smiled and said, "Hehe! That's more like it. Trashy Master, go and try again."
Xiao Chen gaped slightly, feeling somewhat speechless. What if I really cannot open it? So this is why Ao Jiao stopped him.
However, Xiao Chen believed that this door would still open for him. There would not be any accidents.
Stepping forward, Xiao Chen gently touched the bronze doors with his palm. There did not seem to be any changes.
However, the core formation of the Blue Dragon Palace, which was connected to the underground, gave off a bright light as it quickly confirmed something.
Xiao Chen gently pushed, and the doors of the great hall opened with a creak, easily opening again without any obstruction.
After walking in with large strides, Xiao Chen turned his head to look at Ao Jiao, who had a strange expression on her face. He smiled and said, "Come in. I'll bring you to the scenery that the Thunder King did not bring you to see back then."
Ao Jiao's lips curled up as she muttered, "Who cares?"
Even though she said that, she still walked in quickly. Her bright and adorable eyes curiously looked around at everything around her.
Clearly, Ao Jiao was very interested in this place. She did not care as much as she said.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and walked past the formation drawn in the golden Emperor's blood. Then, he arrived before the painting and focused on it.
The long robes of the azure-robed man depicted eighteen circling Blue Dragons. Each Blue Dragon looked very lifelike, like they were alive. Xiao Chen could even see them swimming on the robes.
The Blue Dragon Robes gave off a faint glow. When Xiao Chen looked carefully, he seemed to see a boundless mysterious phenomenon spanning five thousand kilometers in his mind.
This Blue Dragon Robes was definitely a supreme Secret Treasure, surpassing Superior Grade Secret Treasures and Peak Grade Secret Treasures. As for what grade it was, Xiao Chen was not sure.
However, what attracted Xiao Chen's attention was the posture of the azure-robed man holding the saber.
As a bladesman, Xiao Chen immediately noticed that there was something strange about this simple posture of holding the saber.
Hence, Xiao Chen quickly simulated the direction of the azure-robed man's saber in his mind. Where would the saber in the scabbard come from? How should Xiao Chen block?
"Whoosh!"
Just after Xiao Chen finished calculating, he felt a saber light flying at him. The person in the painting actually came to life. Furthermore, he attacked from an angle that Xiao Chen had not expected!
The saber light flashed, and Xiao Chen's eyes widened in shock. Before he could cry out, he felt his head being chopped off and tossed high into the air. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
Xiao Chen took three steps back, his face filled with horror as he touched his neck. There was no wound or blood. Xiao Chen's head was still there; he was not dead.
Xiao Chen looked forward. The person in the painting was as graceful as an immortal, not moving at all.
Could I be seeing things? However, that feeling was very real. Xiao Chen could not figure it out. In that instant earlier, he really thought that he had died.
That horror was indescribable with words. In the instant before he died, he even thought of many things. Everything was still vivid in his mind.
Ao Jiao, who was studying the formations on the ground, looked up and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong? Are you alright?"
Xiao Chen answered awkwardly. Naturally, he could not say that he was frightened by a painting.
After thinking for a while, he quickly stepped forward and removed the painting without hesitation. Then, he rolled it up and placed it in the Universe Ring.
There was definitely a universe within this painting, containing boundless mysteries. The person in the painting was very powerful and definitely had a great background.
"Hey, why are you putting away a painting of a dead person like it is a treasure?" Ao Jiao could not help mocking Xiao Chen when she saw what he was doing.
Martial Emperors had a lifespan of a thousand years. Sovereign Martial Emperors could live for more than five thousand years.
Xiao Chen did not think that this person was definitely dead. He felt a strange sense of closeness to this person. He replied, "Who said that he is dead? Perhaps this senior is undergoing experiential training in the Starry Heavens or the Demonic World."
"That is the Dragon's Gate's Qing Emperor. He has been dead for more than ten thousand years. If it is not a painting of a dead person, what is it?"
This person was the Qing Emperor. Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. He was somewhat speechless. He wanted to take out the painting and take a closer look. However, he was afraid of that strange scene.
Ao Jiao smiled and said, "Hehe! Although the Qing Emperor was the strongest Sovereign Martial Emperor since the Ancient Era, sweeping through the Kunlun Realm and shaking the eighteen Demonic Worlds with his might, he has been dead for ten thousand years. There is no need for him to scare you to this extent."
"Come and take a look at this. This is the truly scary thing." Ao Jiao called out to Xiao Chen. Then, they went to the center of the hall, to the side of the formation carved in golden Emperor's blood.
