The size of the Holy Mountain was beyond Lin Mengya's imagination.
As for the hollowed out Holy Mountain, rather than calling it a passageway, it was more like an underground palace.
However, there were no other decorations here. The simple and huge stone steps were the only thing here.
After walking down for a while, they saw a heavy stone door in front of them.
The person in front of them looked at Long Tianhao, who nodded. Then he took out a pair of cork earplugs and stuffed them into her ears.
Suddenly, she could not hear any other sound except her own heartbeat.
And the people around her did the same.
With a loud bang, the person standing at the door pressed the mechanism on the door.
Although she had plugged her ears, her eardrums were still hurt by the vibration.
She finally understood what the commotion she had heard in the divine hall was.
The heavy door was opened, and behind it was a flight of stairs that extended downwards.
Lin Mengya took a look and felt that the person who could create such a wonder must not be an ordinary person.
The people in black seemed to be very familiar with this path. Almost without any hesitation, they took off the earplugs and continued to run down.
She secretly tugged at Long Tianhao's sleeve and asked.
"Where are we going?"
"To the entrance of the Immortal City. Mengya, can you lend me a little of your blood?"
Long Tianhao lowered his head and asked her. She nodded and took out a dagger to cut her hand.
However, he stopped it and held it tightly in his palm.
"Silly girl, one drop is enough for me. Why do you have to cut your hand?"
He had not cut her hand, but he was already distressed.
Lin Mengya's heart was as sweet as honey. She watched him take out a silver needle from nowhere and gently pricked her finger.
She did not know how he did it. She almost felt no pain.
Even so, the first thing he asked after he pricked her finger was her.
"Does it hurt?"
She shook her head and gently squeezed out a drop of blood with her finger.
In the dim light, she did not know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that the purple color in her blood seemed to be getting stronger.
Her teacher had once told her that the purer the purple color, the more poisonous it was in her body.
Although these poisons were not harmful to her, it was still not a good thing.
Long Tianhao carefully put the blood into a small jade bottle. Lin Mengya frowned slightly, because there was a compound in it that the small medicine could not detect.
When her blood was added, the medicine was still unable to detect it.
"What is this thing?"
Seeing that she was curious, Long Tianhao explained while swaying gently.
"This is the reason why the Immortal City is so revered by these people. However, it is all a trick to deceive people. Teacher had once said that the people of the Immortal City had a special physique. They were very hard to kill because they had been taking this stuff since they were young. And your blood just happens to be able to break this thing. "
As he shook it evenly, he handed the small jade bottle to the others.
She saw that everyone carefully took it, and then used a dagger or a silver needle to pick out a little bit of it, and smeared it on their weapons.
"Then what's the point of me coming with you?"
Now, she had complete trust in Long Tianhao.
The latter hesitated for a moment before saying softly, "Because it's safest for you to stay by my side. Don't worry, Teacher has taken Ning 'er and the others to hide. After we deal with the things here, we will go to deal with the things outside. "
Seeing that she was still puzzled, Long Tianhao could not help but sigh and touched her cheek.
"I didn't want to tell you at first, but now it seems that it's not a good thing to hide it from you."
He paused and explained while walking, "The ancestor of Lord Yuan, who took you away before, is from the Immortal City. For us people on the ground, he is a messenger sent by the Immortal City. Originally, his grandfather was supposed to take away one of your great-grandmother's twin daughters. But there was an accident, so his grandfather has been delayed. "
About this, The Lord had mentioned it to her.
"Although the existence of the Immortal City is a secret even in the Divine Hall. However, he still managed to win over quite a number of people in secret. The reason why my teacher was injured was that he was plotted against by them. These stupid guys, do they think that they can get everything they want by pleasing the Immortal City? But they don't know that in the eyes of those guys in the Immortal City, the people on the ground are no different from pigs and dogs! "
Speaking of this, Long Tianhao's tone was cold. She didn't know whether he hated the Immortal City or the group of wishful thinking people.
It was then that Lin Mengya understood why Long Tianhao had created so many troubles in the past.
"That is to say, the reason why you had to swallow the poison to lose your memory was that there might be spies around you who belong to their faction?"
Long Tianhao looked at her with a bit of admiration in his eyes.
"Yes, at that time, my teacher had already decided to rebel against the Immortal City. But we didn't know to what extent their forces had penetrated. So, as the core of this matter, I set up a trap with others. "
His eyes were burning, emitting a different kind of brilliance.
Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, then she tiptoed and kissed him hard on the mouth.
"You are indeed my man, well done!"
She was not stingy with her praise, but Long Tianhao was shy and turned his head away.
However, his hands hugged her slender waist more tightly.
The iron gate at the foot of the Holy Mountain had a total of twelve levels.
And the last level was the real boundary between the Immortal City and the ground.
Lin Mengya felt a little ridiculous. It was obviously a hidden underground world, but it called itself the Immortal City.
Their country was above, but it was going to be called the human world.
But Long Tianhao also said that the Immortal City was very mysterious.
Those who went there never came back, even if the people from the Immortal City came out, it was also mysterious.
But one thing was certain, the technology of the people in the Immortal City was more advanced than the people on the ground.
She was very concerned about this point.
If one day, the people in the Immortal City got tired of the underground life and wanted to live on the ground, wouldn't it be very dangerous for the people now?
But she always felt that things were not so simple.
Also, why did the noble Immortal City need the baby girls of the Gong family?
An even bigger mystery was laid out in front of her.
"Your Highness, we have reached the sixth level."
The way down was very fast, at least much faster than going up the mountain.
After experiencing six earthquake-like attacks, her eardrums were already a little unbearable.
Fortunately, Long Tianhao was already prepared. After taking out a small bottle from his arms, he dripped a few drops into her ears.
Immediately, she felt a cool rush from her ears to her brain, and the annoying pain was immediately reduced.
"Well, everyone must be careful on the road ahead. They don't dare to stay in the first six levels, but they will definitely be prepared for the next six levels. "
These people nodded and then opened the door to the sixth level.
As soon as the door opened, Lin Mengya felt a moist and fishy wind coming from inside.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Long Tianhao subconsciously hugged her tightly to comfort her, but Lin Mengya really did not feel afraid.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at everything in front of her.
Behind the sixth door, there were actually many skeletons.
She did not know how the ventilation here was designed, but in short, there was no rotten smell.
The skeletons were lying on the steps, some looked very old, and some looked very new.
Lin Mengya lifted her skirt and walked around these skeletons.
Slowly, she found out that most of the people who died here were wearing the clothes of the Holy Disciples.
The rest of them were dressed like the men in black who came today.
She looked at the skeletons, and then looked at everyone.
It seemed that these should be the evidence that The Lord rebelled against the Immortal City.
"They were all bewitched by Lord Yuan's grandfather. My Lord, we can't let them bring back the news from your great-grandmother. And Lord Yuan's grandfather can't go back. So, he asked these people to go to the Immortal City to deliver the news on his behalf. "
Lin Mengya looked at the ground full of skeletons and could not help but be speechless.
In the past 50 years, how many people had lost their lives here?
She was a little curious about her great-grandmother. How much charm and wisdom did she have, that so many people were willing to sacrifice so much for her?
When they arrived here, the men in black began to lighten their steps.
Lin Mengya twitched her nose and found that there was still a faint smell of cosmetics in the air.
That was the smell of the girls that Lord Yuan took away. There was no mistaking it.
"They should not have gone far. I think Lord Yuan must have been prepared."
When they came here before, there was no smell of cosmetics in the air, and Lord Yuan and his men were not slow. But here, there was a smell of cosmetics.
"Well, I think they should have noticed the secret here. They knew that they would be chased by us, so they must have set up an ambush. "
Long Tianhao's voice was very soft, but it was very clear to her ears.
He nodded to his men, and they scattered in all directions, leaving Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao in the middle.
She looked around and felt that it was a little conspicuous.
After thinking for a while, she understood what Long Tianhao meant.
She held his hand tightly, and the two of them continued to walk down.
Finally, they came to the seventh door.
This time, the surrounding men in black gathered around them.
However, if they did not look carefully, they would not be able to see that almost half of the people were missing.
After a careful exploration, the men came back and reported in a low voice, "Your Highness, there is no ambush here."
Long Tianhao nodded and waved his hand to let the men open the door.
