< Today's first update! >
The mechanism was activated …
Creaking sounds rang out slowly, light and slow. There wasn't the slightest bit of noise that a normal mechanism would make. It only rang out for a short while before it was completely silent. Jun Moxie looked at the huge stone door that gradually appeared on the other side. His heart was filled with shock.
Jun Dashao had carefully touched the place just now and didn't find any gaps at all. But the moment he pressed the mechanism, this door suddenly appeared! Just this move alone was enough to make one gasp in amazement! How intricate was this?
Apart from being a martial arts grandmaster, this Nine Nether First Young Master was also a master of mechanisms! Such an intricate mechanism setup could really be said to be a work of art that surpassed nature! Especially when such an intricate mechanism was set up underground. That was even more rare and precious.
There was another point. From those light sounds at the start to the complete silence, Jun Moxie understood that the slight noises at the start was because it hadn't been activated even once in ten thousand years. When a mechanism that had been silent for a long time was suddenly activated, it was inevitable that there would be some movement. Even if it was a relatively loud noise, it wouldn't be strange. But this time, the mechanism only made a slight noise before it disappeared. This undoubtedly meant that this mechanism had already gotten used to the current rhythm!
In just a blink of an eye!
This was a mechanism from at least ten thousand years ago! And it actually recovered its vitality just like that!
Jun Moxie was truly dumbfounded. But what made him even more dumbfounded was yet to come.
Or perhaps, this was just the prologue to his dumbfounded state …
Following the activation of the mechanism, the hidden door flashed into view, revealing a wide, long passageway. It was two zhang tall and three zhang wide. The depth of the tunnel was extremely impressive. Judging from the looks of it, it was at least a hundred zhang long …
Although the passageway was long and narrow, it was not dark. Instead, it was filled with a gentle light. On the wall above the passageway, there were two luminous pearls placed side by side every two steps. Each of them was the size of a child's fist. They emitted a misty, gentle halo that illuminated the entire passageway!
Any one of such a large luminous pearl was a priceless treasure! Even if it was a wealthy family or an inner court of the royal palace, if they had one, they would place it in a precious treasure box and carefully preserve it. Or they would use it to decorate the most gorgeous crown of the emperor and empress. But here, it was luxuriously embedded in the stone wall, becoming a lighting tool!
However, it wasn't accurate to say that it was luxurious. There seemed to be too many night-luminescent pearls here. Those who didn't know their value might really make a mistake. No matter how precious something was, as long as there were a lot of them, it wouldn't be that rare anymore. Therefore, Jun Dashao was shocked at the beginning, and then … nothing much happened!
Jun Moxie sighed from the bottom of his heart and slowly walked to the entrance of the tunnel. He felt a warm, charming, and rich fragrance hit him in the face, lingering for a long time. Jun Moxie stopped in his tracks. Obviously, judging from this fragrance, this should be the place where the Nine Nether First Young Master's lovers stayed.
Looking over, the tunnel seemed to have no end. One could imagine the rooms of the ladies on both sides … Jun Moxie sighed again and walked in. As expected, there was a button every few meters. With a press of his hand, a stone door opened silently, revealing the beautiful and luxurious decorations inside …
Bed, dressing table, study table … all the necessary furniture was there. The beauties were gone, leaving only an empty room. The fragrance came from ten thousand years ago …
Jun Moxie walked one round and counted. There should be a total of one hundred and thirty-six rooms here!
In other words, this Nine Nether First Young Master alone had one hundred and thirty-six wives. En, didn't he say that he only had ninety-nine wives? Why were there one hundred and thirty-six rooms here?! Jun Moxie suddenly recalled … that fellow seemed to have only harmed ninety-nine women in this world, but he should have brought back quite a number of them when he came to Earth. Judging from the number of rooms, he seemed to have brought back another thirty-seven …
This was really a f * cking powerful person!
What a beast! No, he was even worse than a beast! With so many beauties working together, why didn't they get this f * cking bastard!
The heavens are blind!
Jun Dashao, who was almost speechless, turned around and walked out with his face covered in dirt. He only entered the first room. He didn't enter any of the other rooms, nor did he open any of them to take a look.
With the Nine Nether First Young Master's character, he would definitely not place his treasures in the rooms of his wives and concubines! Actually, if it was Jun Dashao, he wouldn't do that either! In fact, Jun Moxie already had a feeling of blasphemy when he entered the first room.
Towards the crazy Nine Nether First Young Master, Jun Moxie had no scruples. He even dared to scold the Nine Nether First Young Master if he was standing right in front of him! But towards these women, Jun Moxie couldn't, and wouldn't.
What kind of taste did the Nine Nether First Young Master have? How could any of the women that he had taken a fancy to be ordinary goods?
So, Jun Moxie had some admiration and respect towards these women. So he immediately retreated, leaving this room that had been emitting a sweet fragrance for ten thousand years to be permanently sealed inside.
With a push of his hand, he closed the stone door. At the moment when the passageway was about to close, the stone wall at the entrance of the passageway suddenly flashed and a piece of cloth hung down. Then, the cloth burst into flames. Within the flames was a young, handsome, yet rebellious, baby-like smiling face. The smiling face sighed and said. "As expected of Earth's legend – the Evil Monarch Jun Xie! If you enter this door and don't come out within the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, then the other mechanisms will be sealed forever! Even if you have that old fellow's unique tricks, it will be hard for you to escape from this young master's arrangements. Not bad, not bad, really not bad. This young master suddenly likes you a little … "
Then, the smiling face in the fire blinked and disappeared along with the fire.
Looking at this smiling face that had suddenly disappeared, Jun Mo Xie suddenly had a feeling that the battle with the Nine Nether First Young Master had already begun the moment he entered this hall. Even now, it was still a battle between the two of them!
Without a doubt, he had always been at a disadvantage. Only at this moment did he manage to turn the situation around a little!
And this turn around was mostly a coincidence. It was also because he had the same pride and arrogance as the Nine Nether First Young Master! Respecting the family of the opponent was also respecting the opponent! And this respect was exchanged for the same return!
Looks like this Nine Nether First Young Master was the same as him, a person who was unwilling to take advantage of others for no reason!
Jun Moxie thought for a while and returned to the warm jade bed. Suddenly, he made up his mind and pressed the remaining seven buttons on both sides!
A series of creaking sounds rang out, and in all directions of this hall, one to two long passageways appeared at the same time!
Jun Moxie randomly chose the closest one and walked in leisurely.
Right now, Jun Dashao's mood was very calm. Towards everything that had happened before him, he only felt that it was a matter of course. There was no longer any surprise!
Don't be fooled by the fact that you've created such an earth-shattering hall of uncanny craftsmanship, and even revealed your ability to turn the clouds and rain with one turn of the hand! But there's one thing you must know: I, Jun Moxie, will also have this day sooner or later!
Besides, you've already lived for tens of thousands of years. If you don't even have this bit of ability, then I'll look down on you too much …
Behind this stone door was a very standard warehouse. Or rather, it could be said to be a huge wardrobe!
The space inside was rather big, but there were only nine white clothes hanging on nine hangers. It was impossible to tell the style of the clothes, as if they could be worn by both genders. And, Jun Moxie could tell with one look that these clothes had definitely not been worn by anyone!
He randomly picked one up and looked at it. Jun Moxie's tentacles gave him a fright. The texture of the clothes was neither silk nor silk. It was warm to the touch, as smooth as water, as light as a feather, yet extremely flexible!
On the stone wall, a few lines of words were carved: Warm Jade Core Silk, impervious to swords and spears, impervious to water and fire, a treasure for defense! Extracted from a hundred thousand year warm jade core, refined with soul fire. Able to protect loved ones from harm. This is just a small token of my appreciation, not enough to show my respect.
Jun Moxie was stunned. What did this mean? Could it be that he had really predicted that his loved ones would be harmed? That's why he specially left these clothes behind?
Jun Moxie thought for a moment, then picked up a piece of clothing. Using his full strength, he used his hand as a knife and slashed it! The clothes swayed lightly, but were not damaged at all!
This Warm Jade Core Silk was actually this strong!
It was a treasure!
Jun Moxie was overjoyed. With these nine pieces of clothing, his mother, grandfather, Third Uncle, Guan Qing Han, Dugu Xiaoyi, and Mei Xueyan would be safe. It was equivalent to taking a big step forward!
But no matter how Jun Mo Xie thought about it, he still couldn't understand it. Even if he included Third Aunt, he only needed seven items. But there were nine hanging here! What did this mean? Wasn't it supposed to predict the future? How could it have been wrong?
Jun Moxie pondered for a moment, but still could not figure it out. He simply took down the nine pieces of clothing, held them in his arms, and walked out. It was always better to have more than less. Sure enough, as soon as he stepped out, the stone door slowly closed behind him. There was no longer any gap between them.
Jun Moxie placed the nine treasured clothing on the huge jade bed, then continued to walk towards the next tunnel.
Although the nine treasured clothing were good, it was still far from what Jun Moxie had expected.
In the next stone room, there were only five small tables in the huge space. The first platform was as tall as a person, and it shone with golden light from top to bottom. At the top, there was a round ball the size of a human head that emitted a dazzling golden light.
The second platform was green, and on top of it was also a round ball that emitted a thick green light.
The third platform was blue, and on top of it was a dazzling blue ball.
The fourth platform was red, and on top of it was a dark red burning ball.
The fifth platform was a magnificent bright yellow, almost transparent. On top of it, there was a round ball that shone brilliantly like the sun, resplendent and dazzling!
The five platforms formed an equilateral pentagon! Or rather, they formed a perfect circle.
Jun Moxie's eyes widened!
