Looking at Su Yun walking over, Li Guang who was leading the group was unhappy.
He asked the teacher: "Teacher, this Secret Palace is the secret grounds of our Evil Sword Sect. Are you really willing to let an outsider follow us in?"
"If it was in the past, of course not. But Su Yun's goal is to obtain the Sovereign King Sword and clear the void exit. In the end, he is also helping our Evil Sword Sect. I have informed the clan elders about this and they have agreed. There are no secrets in the Secret Palace. Why should we hide it? If he goes, then so be it. It won't affect any of you. "
The teacher called Wang Zhi Bao said expressionlessly.
Li Guang wanted to say something but Li Xin tugged on his sleeve. Li Guang turned his head. Seeing Li Xin's eyes, he could only give up.
Seeing that everyone was silent, the instructor continued to speak.
"The Secret Palace was created by the ancestors of the Evil Sword Sect. Its purpose is to test the Evil Sword Techniques of the Evil Sword Sect. There are many special Evil Spirits inside. Only the Evil Sword Techniques can harm them. After you enter the Secret Palace, help me find the 'Dragon Mugwort Grass' and 'Evil Qi Stone'. Once you get these two treasures, it means that you have passed the test. All of you will be promoted to middle level disciples!"
"That's all?" Li Guang revealed a confident smile and cupped his fists: "That's simple. Dear teachers, please wait here for my good news."
"Don't be too arrogant." Teacher Wang snorted: "The Secret Palace is filled with danger. The Evil Spirits will not recognize you. If you meet them, you must give it your all. Because ever since the Secret Palace was opened, countless people have died! Even the elders … two of them died. "
"What?"
Everyone was shocked.
"How is that possible? There are actually clan elders who died in the Secret Palace? "Li Guang's face turned white. He was in disbelief.
"That is absolutely true. Fifty years ago, the Sect Master was injured and needed good medicine to treat his injuries. We found out from the secret records that the ancestors had placed a peerless medicine in the Secret Palace, called the 'Rejuvenation Flower'. After taking it, it could remove all the toxins in the body and make the person look as good as new. However, this' Rejuvenation Flower 'was located in the deepest part of the Secret Palace. In order to obtain this medicine to treat the Sect Master's injuries, the two Elders rashly went in, but they never came back. Later on, the Sect Master personally led people to search for them, but there was no news of them. In desperation, the Sect Master set an order, forbidding anyone to go within fifty miles of the Secret Palace, and added a series of restrictions. "
"So that's how the rules of the Secret Palace came about." Everyone looked enlightened.
"Don't let your guard down, because you can die at any time. Alright, go get the Dragon Grass and the Evil Qi Stone. We'll be waiting for you here. You don't have any guarantee of safety, you can only rely on yourself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Headmaster Wang gave a look to the Vice Headmaster beside him. The Vice Headmaster nodded, turned around, and walked to a cave behind him.
The Vice Hierarch took out a person's sternum from somewhere and pressed it against the mountain wall. He then closed his eyes and chanted an incantation. A large amount of purple light shot out from the sternum and quickly turned into a square purple magic circle in front of the door. The magic circle's light seeped into the mountain wall. The mountain wall immediately made a rumbling sound and a two-meter-wide crack appeared.
This was the entrance to the Secret Palace.
"The Secret Palace is huge. To obtain those two items, we can track them through their Qi!"
After Teacher Wang said that, he turned around and gestured for everyone to enter.
This time, Li Guang did not have the confidence from before. Instead, he had a serious and stern look on his face.
The group of people started walking towards the crack. Every step they took was extremely heavy.
"Su Yun, let's go. I hope you can bring back good news!" Hun San patted Su Yun's shoulder, his pitch black face filled with sincerity.
"En." Su Yun nodded his head, under the hazy cloak, his face that was shrouded in Evil Qi was filled with seriousness, and he followed.
After entering the crack, there was a long path that led downwards.
It was extremely dark inside. There was not much light. But in the darkness, evil people's vision was not affected. Su Yun had the Heavenly Scale Divine Eye, so he was not afraid of the darkness.
Everyone took out their weapons and advanced carefully. Li Guang and Li Xin led the way. The two of them were the strongest among the disciples. Their Evil Sword Techniques were also the strongest. Their prestige was unparalleled.
"Everyone be careful. Don't let your guard down!"
Li Xin shouted.
"Yes, senior sister."
Everyone continued forward.
It was estimated that they had walked for nearly an hour. They had even made several turns, but they still hadn't seen a single Phantasm soul. Everyone's vigilance began to relax.
"Senior brother, why do I feel that something is wrong? Didn't they say that the Secret Palace is filled with Evil Spirits? Why haven't we met one after so long? "
"Are we going the wrong way?"
A few of the evil people started to ask.
"There's only one path. Could it be that we're wrong?"
Li Guang shouted.
Everyone looked at each other and did not speak.
"Senior brother, senior sister, be careful in front!" Just then, an evil person shouted.
Everyone looked over. There were a few Evil Spirits floating not far away.
Seeing that, Li Guang's face changed. His entire body released a large amount of Evil Qi. He transformed into a mist and rushed forward.
When the mist neared the Evil Spirits, it immediately released layers of sword images that slashed fiercely onto the Evil Spirits. Screams and screams could be heard continuously.
Seeing that, Li Xin and the rest immediately went forward to help.
In just a few moves, the Evil Spirits were slashed and devoured by the twenty over evil people.
"Haha, these Evil Spirits are really nothing. They can even increase our cultivation!" One of the evil people laughed out loud.
"I think what the Teacher said earlier was just to scare us! He's purposely trying to scare us. "
"That's possible!"
"Hahaha!"
The group of evil people started to go wild again.
Su Yun who was following behind did not say a word, he stood at the side, he did not make a move, nor did he absorb the Evil Spirits, as though he was an outsider. But, the Evil Realm people truly treated him as an outsider.
After dealing with the Evil Spirits, everyone continued on their way.
Along the way, they met more than ten waves of Evil Spirits. But without exception, they were all killed by Li Guang and Li Xin without much effort.
Li Guang and Li Xin were initially cautious. But at this moment, they were completely defeated by the fragility and deliciousness of the Evil Spirits. One by one, they increased their pace and moved forward.
Although the Evil Spirits were scary, do not forget that they were evil people. They could absorb the Evil Spirits to increase their strength.
Li Guang led the team forward. Not long later, they met with two paths.
Everyone looked at Li Xin and Li Guang. Li Xin suddenly opened her mouth and spat out a pitch black pearl. She crushed it into powder and scattered it in the air.
Spots of green light appeared in the powder.
"There's the Qi of the 'Dragon Grass' here." Li Xin pointed to the green light on the left and said.
"What about the 'Evil Qi Stone'?" Li Guang asked.
"Currently, I can only sense the Qi of the 'Dragon Grass'."
"Yes, this is not a solution." Li Guang pretended to think for a while, then said: "How about this, Li Xin, you lead a team to the right, I'll lead a team to the left. We'll split up. I'll look for the 'Dragon Grass', you look for the 'Evil Qi Stone', what do you think?"
With that, almost everyone understood what Li Guang meant.
What 'Dragon Grass' and 'Evil Qi Stone'? It was no longer important. To them, finding these two things was just a secondary goal. The delicious Evil Spirits were what they were after.
If they were to gather together, they would not be able to eat much if they met the Evil Spirits. Why not split up?
Li Xin and the rest felt that it was better this way. Afterall, the Evil Spirits had brought them many benefits.
After a short discussion, the team of 20 split into two. Li Guang led one and Li Xin led the other.
"Su Yun." Li Guang shouted at the person at the back of the crowd who had two swords on his back.
Su Yun raised his head and looked at him.
"Follow Li Xin and follow her to find the Sovereign King Sword." Li Guang said.
"Hahahaha!"
The group of evil people laughed out loud. To them, the Sovereign King Sword was just an illusory object. How could they find it?
Su Yun did not say anything.
"Let's go."
Li Xin did not say anything. She led the team to the right and Su Yun followed.
Li Guang glanced at them and led his men away.
Following the right fork, not long after, a large number of Evil Spirits appeared, causing the Evil Realm people that followed Li Xin to be extremely happy. All of them rushed forward and activated their Evil Sword Techniques to kill the Evil Spirits. Although the Evil Spirits outnumbered them, they were unable to withstand the vicious Evil Realm people, and in a short while, all of them died.
Su Yun watched from the side as he studied the mysterious Evil Spirits that only ate the Evil Sword Techniques.
Who was the ancestor of the Evil Sword Sect? How could he create such unique Evil Spirits? And these Evil Spirits seemed to be specially created for the disciples of the Evil Sword Sect. Maybe, these Evil Spirits were the rewards for the disciples who defeated them.
As Li Xin led the group deeper in, the number of Evil Spirits and their strength increased.
Although the group of evil people ate until they were fat, no one was satisfied. They were evil people, not humans. Since they were evil, how could they be satisfied?
Along the way, they killed and fought. But no one had the mood to look for the so called test materials.
Su Yun watched helplessly. But he could not be bothered. He followed the group of people and looked around to see if he could find the whereabouts of the Sovereign King Sword.
Thump!
Just then, a light sound came out.
Everyone looked over. At the end of the road was a broken stone door. Specks of grey light leaked out from the stone door.
Li Xin immediately signaled for everyone to stop.
"What's that?"
"Everyone be careful."
"Don't be afraid. Maybe there are more Evil Spirits. Hahahaha. If I eat a little more, I will be able to break through!"
The evil people shouted excitedly. Their laughter was sinister.
Li Xin, who had always been cautious, did not have much vigilance at this moment. Seeing everyone cheering like this, she did not hesitate any longer. Holding her slightly curved evil sword, she walked towards the broken stone door.
Dong dong dong dong dong.
The stone door released a series of dull sounds. Li Xin's immense strength pushed it open. A large amount of grey light leaked out. A rotting smell permeated out from inside.
Everyone anxiously raised their weapons and looked inside the stone door.
Behind the stone door was a gigantic palace. It was extremely spacious and filled with stone pillars. Between the stone pillars, there were veined patterns. A long path led to the end of the spacious place. On both sides of the path, there were countless of statues. And at the end of the path, there was a coffin made of black stones.
"What is this place?"
Everyone was startled.
Su Yun's breathing congealed. His eyes anxiously looked around, searching for something.
"Look!"
Right at this moment, a cry of pleasant surprise rang out.
Everyone turned to look, only to see an Evil Realm being pointing excitedly at the black coffin in front of them that was placed flat on top of it.
It was a pitch black stone sword.
"Is that the Sovereign King Sword?" Li Xin shouted excitedly.
"We actually found it so easily?"
Su Yun was also surprised.
