"Wait!" Wang Yuanlang became vigilant. "Miss, you may not know, but this person is famous for being treacherous and cunning in Yong Ling. Who knows if he has the idea of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf!"
Yu Youwei's beautiful eyes turned and said, "This servant thinks that before we see the treasury, it's better to be peaceful."
Wang Yuanlang immediately sneered proudly. "Yan Li, don't think that everything will go according to your plan and play everyone like an idiot."
Yan Li said in surprise, "So that's what you think? I thought you thought that in my heart, you were the enemy, and you thought that in my heart, you were the idiot. "
After everyone understood, they couldn't help but laugh.
Wang Yuanlang felt a bit embarrassed, but when he heard that in Yan Li's heart, he felt a lot better.
Unfortunately, Yan Li added, "Although this is the truth."
"You!" Wang Yuanlang's eyes were about to spit fire, but somehow, he suppressed it and said coldly, "I, Wang Yuanlang, have never suffered such a loss in my life. I will make you regret it!"
"Being an idiot is better than being dead." Yan Li said, "While there is still value in living, use whatever means you have. If you can make me look at you seriously, I will take back what I said. — — Follow me. "
He led the way.
Although the distance between the stone pillars wasn't small, it wasn't impossible to jump over. Otherwise, once they landed, they wouldn't need to think about the treasury, but how to escape first.
These hundreds of stone pillars added up were almost half the size of Yong Ling.
Everyone followed Yan Li and ran between the stone pillars. About an hour later, a clue gradually appeared in the boundless expanse, like the shore of the endless sea. — — It was a magnificent Crystal Palace.
What was even more shocking was that the Crystal Palace was supported by a floating island.
This was a floating island surrounded by huge stone pillars. There was nothing at the bottom of the abyss supporting it, but it was floating in the air. It was quite shocking.
It was surrounded in the middle of the stone pillars, shrouded in a greenish-white icy mist. The four stone pillars were connected to the island by an iron chain bridge, as if it was its door. Everyone stood on the edge of the iron chain bridge facing north and looked at it from afar. They couldn't help but feel shocked.
"What is this place?" Cui 'er murmured. "Is this the legendary Heavenly Palace?"
"This can't have been built by the Hu tribe," Shen Liuyun said.
Everyone knew that there was a shocking secret hidden here that could shake the entire Divine Prefecture.
Yu Youwei said, "But the Hu Tribe must have come here before. Based on their nature of snatching good things and keeping them as their own, they must have regarded this island as their holy land. But they were afraid that the name would not live up to the reality, so they set up a name. This is indeed the custom of robbing people."
This conjecture was basically the truth.
No one knew what the iron chain bridge was made of. It was so strong that even a divine weapon might not be able to cut it. However, the wooden planks on the bridge had long decayed, as if they would shatter at the slightest touch.
"General, it's really cold here …" Liu Mingyuan saw that his subordinates were shivering in the cold and was a little worried for them.
"Useless things!" Wang Yuanlang glared at them. "You're usually very powerful, but you can't come in handy at critical moments!"
His blame was actually not unreasonable. Even Yu Youwei had to circulate her vital energy to protect her body, not to mention that Liu Mingyuan, who had the highest cultivation among them, was only a third-grade martial artist.
Yan Li also felt it, but not from himself, but from Fu 'er, who was beside him.
She was so cold that her face was pale and blue. Her eyelids kept drooping, as if she would fall asleep in the next moment, and this sleep might be forever.
Shen Liuyun looked at her indifferently, without any words or movements.
"Come." Yan Li pulled Fu 'er to the side, using his back to block everyone's sight, and took out a blood-red bead from his bosom.
As soon as the bead appeared, it emitted a fiery red light.
It was called the Spiritual Bead of Fire.
Yan Li hurriedly pressed it into Fu 'er's bosom, blocking the light, and said in a low voice, "This is a very important treasure to me. It can drive away the cold. Take good care of it, and don't lose it."
As soon as the Spiritual Bead of Fire entered Fu 'er's bosom, it immediately gave birth to infinite warmth. Her little face regained some color, and she was so touched that she hugged him with tears in her eyes. "Master is so good to me, Fu 'er will protect it with my life!"
As soon as the Spiritual Bead of Fire left his body, Yan Li immediately felt the invasion of the cold, and hurriedly circulated his vital energy to resist. He rubbed her little head, then turned around and said, "Let's go to the island, everyone. Victory is right in front of us."
Crossing the Iron Chain Bridge was very dangerous, because no one knew what was at the bottom of the abyss. The fear of the unknown was even greater than the fear of having nothing to rely on in the sky.
They barely made it through, and entered the greenish-white icy fog. Although they had the protection of their cultivation, their whole body still felt like it was being pricked by needles.
"Someone's here!" At this moment, Wang Yuanlang, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.
Yan Li used his eyesight to look, and saw that on the plaza in front of the Crystal Palace, there were rows of armored soldiers.
"It's the army!" he said in a low voice.
"Could it be the guards here?"
"What kind of guards could survive until now?"
"They don't seem alive."
They carefully approached, and when they entered the plaza, the icy fog seemed to be blocked by a mysterious force, and their vision became clear. As expected, they weren't living creatures, but just ice sculptures.
"Wow, Master, it seems real." With the protection of the Spiritual Bead of Fire, Fu 'er didn't feel cold, and her curiosity grew, so she walked through the ice sculpture soldiers.
"Be careful!" Yan Li was really afraid that she would accidentally trigger some kind of mechanism.
"Come back!" At this moment, Shen Liuyun said with a serious expression.
Yan Li hurriedly grabbed Fu 'er back and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shen Liuyun said, "These aren't ice sculptures, they're real people!"
"Ah?" Fu 'er was shocked.
"I'm afraid they're the Hu Tribe elites left in the White Sun Palace. Look at that person … "Shen Liuyun pointed at a special ice sculpture in front of the entrance of the Crystal Palace, facing the plaza.
That ice sculpture was different from the normal soldiers; it was wearing a black wolf robe.
Yan Li only needed one look to know where Shen Liuyun was coming from: this person's wolf robe was embroidered with the pattern of a wolf's face, exactly the same as the one in the trap.
"From his attire, he should be the High Priest of the Hu Tribe. The High Priest has great authority in the tribe, even exceeding that of the Patriarch. And from the looks of it, he should be gathering his troops and preparing to leave this place, "Shen Liuyun said.
Yu Youwei said, "You're saying that they were frozen into ice sculptures before they left?"
Shen Liuyun nodded. "This place isn't normal. If we're not careful, we'll follow in their footsteps."
A shadow immediately shrouded everyone's hearts. Suddenly noticing the deathly silence in the plaza, they became even more afraid.
Yan Li's heart thumped, and he quickly gave Shen Liuyun a look.
Shen Liuyun understood and raised her voice. "Look at the expressions of these soldiers …" She walked through the crowd and pointed at them one by one.
Everyone was attracted by her and couldn't help but follow her. Then they discovered that these soldiers had different expressions. Some were hesitant, some were uneasy, some were longing, some were lifeless, some were fearless …
"These are their expressions when they were alive," Shen Liuyun said. "Look, do you notice a problem?"
"What problem?" Wang Yuanlang couldn't help but ask.
"These expressions are very rich, but they lack fear," Shen Liuyun said.
"Fear?" Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what she was trying to say.
Yu Youwei's beautiful eyes flashed, and she suddenly understood. "You mean, they didn't realize the danger before they were frozen into ice sculptures?"
"That's right." Shen Liuyun turned to look at everyone. "So, you have to be careful of me."
"What do you mean?" Yu Youwei frowned.
"What I mean is," Shen Liuyun continued to walk forward, "I don't have long to live, so don't provoke me, or you'll all die with me."
Yu Youwei frowned deeply. She still didn't understand.
"Where's Yan Li?" At this moment, Gu Shiyu suddenly spoke.
Everyone turned to look around, but Yan Li and Fu 'er were nowhere to be seen.
Yu Youwei's pretty face paled, and she screamed angrily, "Yan Li, how dare you trick me!"
"After him!" Gu Shiyu took a step forward and chased after Shen Liuyun.
Shen Liuyun suddenly turned around, and gracefully leaped backward. Her jade-like hand formed a palm, and she pushed it out in midair. The cloud-shaped vital energy spread out, forming a palm print. Wherever it passed, the ice sculptures were shattered into pieces. The shattered ice and the palm print smashed toward Gu Shiyu.
Gu Shiyu stopped and stretched out his palm. The ice sculptures near him suddenly liquefied, and were sucked into his palm. He swiped the air in front of him, and a water mirror appeared, blocking the attack.
"Oh?" Shen Liuyun landed lightly on the ground, a look of surprise on her face. "I never knew that your cultivation was so high."
Gu Shiyu knew that his identity had been exposed. He frowned slightly, and was about to say something, but Shen Liuyun interrupted him.
"I've said it before, don't provoke me, or else I can't predict what will happen."
Shen Liuyun's expression was indifferent. "This is the last warning." She turned around and floated away.
Gu Shiyu could not compromise in a battle of life and death. He was about to chase after her, but Yu Youwei stopped him.
"No need to chase." Her beautiful eyes were bone-chilling. "You think you can escape from me like this? You underestimate me!"
Her delicate body once again emitted a pale golden light, and then shrank and condensed, forming a pale golden chakra between her eyebrows. As soon as the chakra between her eyebrows appeared, there was a faint feeling.
"Follow me!"
…
Yan Li followed the feeling of the green lotus bud, and led Fu Er through the military formation, bypassing the main gate of the Crystal Palace, and entered through the side door. On the way, he did not have time to examine the Crystal Palace, and only found many unfamiliar patterns. The style of the buildings was also very different from other places in China. For example, there were no stone or wooden arches, and the roof was almost transparent. There were no pillars to support it either. The windows were made of mirrors, and there were some strange paintings on them.
Fu Er was enjoying it, but Yan Li was not in the mood to appreciate it.
Soon, they came to a side room. The door was locked, and the feeling was inside.
Clang!
Xuan Jun unsheathed, and directly cut the lock. He strode in, and immediately locked on a jasper-like lamp holder on the shelf in the middle.
"Green Lotus Lamp!"
