The mechanism of the iron chain on the mountain was designed to test highly skilled people. Those who did not have sufficient lightness kungfu would not be able to pass through. Therefore, a large number of people were left behind. Of course, there were a few who came to make up the numbers, but most of them had some real skills. When Nangong Xue and Lu Qian arrived, no one else tried. The rest of the people consciously stood by the wall and waited.
An Yesun did not wait any longer. The structure of the cliff was similar to that of the opposite side. There was a cave in the middle of the mountain. Nangong Xue caught up a few steps and said, "Master Cheng's internal energy is not enough. If he forced himself to walk, it would be dangerous, so I advised him to stay." An Yesun said, "I don't care." He left her behind and entered the cave.
Perhaps the secret chamber was really close. Everyone's heart was shrouded in a thick layer of fear. Even Li Yijie was restless. He felt that every step forward was a step closer to death. He did not know where his confidence in slaying the devil had disappeared. The more nervous he was, the easier it was for his imagination to run wild. His brain was about to burst from the enormous pressure.
An Yesun was the only one who thought that he would be able to get rid of his enemy soon. Even if he could not kill the murderer who killed Menglin, he would make him disappear from the world. He became more and more excited and quickened his steps. Li Yijie also knew that it was important to be on time, but in his heart, he hoped that An Yesun would go slower.
Nangong Xue's heart was in a mess. She was troubled by two difficult choices. On one hand, she wanted to tell Li Yijie the truth so that he could come up with a plan and not let everyone die here. A few hundred kilograms of explosives were very powerful. The disciples on the other side would not be spared. On the other hand, she was worried that she would be ridiculed again. If he still did not believe her, then she might as well not say anything.
The two sides fought, but there was no conclusion. It was not until they turned a corner that the dark corridor began to brighten. This usually indicated that they had arrived at their destination. She knew that there were fewer and fewer paths left. If she did not say anything now, she was afraid that she would not have another chance. Even if she had to suffer some grievances, it was still better than thousands of lives being lost at the Devil Sect's headquarters. She quickened her steps and walked shoulder to shoulder with Li Yijie. She pulled his sleeve and whispered, "Martial Brother, I have something to tell you. It's very important. You must remember it. "
This was her usual coquettish action. Li Yijie was afraid, feeling her snuggling up to him, his heart was also filled with tenderness. These past few years, he felt guilty towards her, so he often hoped to satisfy her requests as much as possible to compensate her. ...... he patted her head.. He smiled and said......................................... .......................
. ".... Nangong Xue acted shamelessly." Promise me first, then I'll tell you. " Li Yijie thought that she wanted him to do something for her. Knowing his martial sister's temperament, she would not overstep her boundaries. As long as she was happy, she would agree to anything. He smiled. "You've learned to play this game with your martial brother. Okay, I promise you."
Nangong Xue said, "You promised, so you can't go back on your word. When you see Jiang Liechen later, no matter how much you hate him, you must control yourself. You must not attack him. Do you understand? " Li Yijie thought that she was still worried that he would violate his promise with An Yesun. He did not take it to heart. He smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you to watch from the sidelines?"
Nangong Xue's expression was solemn. She shook her head and said, "I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about … Sigh … There are a few hundred kilograms of explosives buried under the Hierarch's throne. Once it explodes, none of us will be able to leave this place alive."
Li Yijie was not as surprised as she expected. He said calmly, "Who started this rumor? There's no need to ask. It must be An Yesun who told you. If this brat dares to spread such alarmist rumors again, I won't be polite to him. " Nangong Xue said, "I … I believe that he's telling the truth. This time, he's planning to perish together with Jiang Liechen. He's a fugitive, and now he hates Jiang Liechen to the bone. What wouldn't he do? "
Li Yijie frowned. He looked at her, then lowered his head and looked at his feet. He seemed to be trying to decide whether or not her words were credible. After a while, he said, "This won't do. I have to ask him why he told you all this!" Nangong Xue said anxiously, "What are you going to do? Senior Martial Brother … "Although she grabbed his sleeve, she was not strong enough and was dragged along by him. There was a group of Righteous Sect disciples following them. She did not dare to raise her voice in fear of causing panic. She could only run along with him.
Li Yijie caught up with An Yesun in a few steps. He said, "Tell me clearly. Why are you talking nonsense like Xueer? If you want to take care of Jiang Liechen alone, I've already let you go. Why do you have to lie to me? "
An Yesun glanced at Nangong Xue. Nangong Xue looked away guiltily, but she felt that there was no reproach in his eyes. She carefully turned her head back. An Yesun sneered, "She really doesn't hide anything from you. I've heard that people are still conscious at the moment of death. You'll know if I'm lying to you or not. I'm willing to pay any price to kill Jiang Liechen. Can you do it? "
Li Yijie saw that An Yesun's eyes were calm, as if he had seen through everything, but there was also a raging flame of crazy hatred hidden in them. Ice and fire intertwined. This kind of look was not something that could be easily made. Li Yijie believed him, but his anger did not diminish. He raised his fist and swung it at An Yesun's face. An Yesun blocked the fist just as it was about to reach his neck. He did not have any intention of fighting back. He still looked up at him with an indifferent expression.
Li Yijie said angrily, "You idiot, you fool. Do you think dying together with him is glorious? That your future generations will engrave it on your tombstone and remember it forever? Sacrificing your life for your enemy? You're the biggest idiot in the world! Since you know you can't beat him, why don't you let us help you? "An Yesun said indifferently," That's my business. I don't need outsiders to meddle in it. "
Li Yijie said angrily, "Jiang Liechen is not your enemy alone. His hatred for everyone here is as deep as the ocean! You want to blindly play the hero and bear all the consequences of success or failure alone? Stop dreaming! Don't think that I want to meddle in your business. You want us to die with you, so I have to meddle in it! "An Yesun said," That depends on whether you have the ability to meddle in it. "
Nangong Xue gently advised, "As the saying goes, it's better to squash enmity than to keep it alive. Converting an evil person is far more meritorious than killing an evil person. "An Yesun said hatefully," I don't want to convert him. That bastard should sink into the sea of bitterness in hell forever and suffer all kinds of torment! "
Nangong Xue sighed softly and looked ahead. Suddenly, she saw an arched door not far away. In the middle of it was a huge round rock that was held in place by many small pieces of wood. It looked like it was still swaying, as if it was going to fall into the crowd at any time and crush them into a pile of meat paste. Nangong Xue pushed An Yesun in fear and pointed at the huge rock. She only made a slight gesture to indicate it, as if she was guarding against an avalanche. She was worried that if she spoke loudly, it would fall down.
An Yesun said, "There's a push-button mechanism on the right wall. Press it." His previous words were full of anger. Even if there was a man-eating beast in front of him, his anger would have melted into a pool of water. At this moment, his tone was heavy and indifferent.
Nangong Xue thought that perhaps the people of the Sacrificial Shadow Sect were all like this. They hid many masks and changed them according to the situation. They pretended to be good on the surface, but they could only swallow their tears in the middle of the night. As she thought about it, she felt that the three main characters involved in the love and hate dispute were also pitiful people. She pressed the button lightly. The originally protruding button became flat. Then, there was a "ka ka" sound. The pieces of wood at the edge of the huge rock were retracted and embedded into the door panel.
Before she could understand what was happening, a loud rumbling sound came from the cave. It was as if the sky and earth were shaking at the same time. Then, she saw the big rock tilt slightly, and like water from a dam, it rushed down. Nangong Xue cried out in alarm and instinctively buried her head in Li Yijie's arms. She complained in her heart, "What did you do? Could it be that you know you can't beat us, so you're disheartened and want to kill yourself with the rock? "
Li Yijie also hugged Nangong Xue. At this moment, his heart was calm and he didn't think about the feelings between a man and a woman. In this dangerous situation, the only thought in his mind was to protect his junior sister from harm. At the same time, he stared at the huge rock. Based on the size of the rock, it was big enough to fill the entire tunnel. There was no safe place for them to hide.
Many of the people walking at the front saw the boulder and exclaimed, "Aiya, we're going to die. The boulder is coming down!" "Run! Those at the back, get out of here!" "It's too late! Can you outrun the rock? "
An Yesun flashed in front of Li Yijie and shouted, "Back off!" Li Yijie saw the rock rolling closer and closer. His body was like a small boat in the middle of a stormy sea, about to be swallowed by the waves in the blink of an eye. In his panic, he didn't have time to care about his hatred and shouted, "It's dangerous!"
Anye Yun sneered. He held his fan horizontally in front of him, raised his arm, and flipped it around. The sword Qi he unleashed was incomparably sharp. Only flashes of white light could be seen as the sword Qi slashed at the rock surface without missing a single one, stopping the boulder from rolling.
As the rotation became more and more rapid, the folding fan in his hand became a ball of light and shadow. The surroundings of the boulder also seemed to be shrouded in a layer of flowing white smoke. This situation was as wonderful as the magic used by immortals. Li Yijie had only secretly simulated it in his imagination, and his face was full of amazement. Everyone's mouths were wide open and couldn't close for a long time. Nangong Xue couldn't help but be curious. She also poked her head out to take a look. Her eyes revealed a trace of gentle admiration.
When the huge rock was completely enveloped by the white smoke, a "pa" sound was heard. The huge rock, which was originally as tall as a person, was cut into countless tiny pieces and scattered all over the ground. An Yesun looked at the falling rocks in front of him with disdain.
When the rocks covered the entire ground, the metal door in front of them slowly rose, revealing a new passage. Li Yijie asked curiously, "Is this rock also a mechanism? Why is it so … special? "
An Yesun said, "Of course it's a mechanism. Didn't you notice? Starting from the Iron Cliff Crossing Chains, it's all a test of one's martial arts. If one's martial arts aren't good enough, they'll be smashed to pieces. The rock has to be hit in a specific location within a certain time limit using a specific method. There's also a limit to the number and size of the pieces. If they don't match or exceed the time limit, the metal door won't open. " Nangong Xue said, "I've seen the mechanism of the Sacrifice Shadow Sect with my own eyes today. It's so complicated that it's hard to imagine. You … you're really amazing. "
An Yesun said, "It's nothing. Only disciples with high martial arts skills who have been specially trained can come here. The Shadow Sect's rule is that before each Hierarch succeeds the position, he must pass through several checkpoints to see if he's qualified. This is the so-called Trial. As long as one has the appropriate martial arts and is proficient in the technique, this rock is just a bluff. "
Hall Master Xue muttered, "The Trial to Succeed the Hierarch … The rules are set by people, and they can also be changed by people. After I succeed the position, I'll cancel this deadly trial. Either you become the Hierarch, or you lose your life. This … this … this is ridiculous! "An Yesun said," Do whatever you want. You're the Hierarch, so you can do whatever you want. But if you don't go through the selection process, I'm afraid the next Hierarch will be a bunch of good-for-nothings. "Hall Master Xue laughed dryly and said," I'll make the decision based on my judgment. "
