This group of palaces was like a huge maze. Without the ability to fly, it was enough to make one dizzy.
This was one of the reasons why the cultivators of the Hades spent so much time here.
However, to Lu Qingshan, since he had chosen to believe in the Western Rat King, he could only follow this path to the end.
Hence, he did not waste any time at this fork in the road. Following the directions of the Western Rat King, he continued to walk forward.
.....
At the end of the group of palaces, there stood a majestic ancient palace. It was sparkling and shining brightly.
This ancient palace was the so-called "light source"!
On the roof of the ancient palace, there were four sharp ancient words. They were like coiling dragons and snakes, exuding a murderous aura.
"Demon's Tomb."
The Gengjin Tiger King called himself a demon. Naturally, the Demon's Tomb was the place where the Gengjin Tiger King fell.
Regardless of whether it was the physical body of the Gengjin Tiger King, or the treasures that the Gengjin Tiger King had plundered for thousands of years, or even the legendary "Daoist Canon", they were all hidden in this ancient palace.
This was a treasure trove that would drive countless cultivators crazy!
In front of the ancient palace, there were close to a hundred cultivators of the Hades. They were all holding onto a formation plate and channeling their spiritual energy. Countless rays of spiritual light flew out from the formation plate and struck the ancient palace at the same time. It was as if there was a rain of spiritual light. It was a spectacular sight.
Above the tightly shut doors of the ancient palace, golden light shone brightly. It gave off a majestic aura that shook one's soul.
One could clearly see that the faces of the cultivators of the Hades were extremely pale. Their eyes revealed an unconcealable scarlet color. Their footsteps were slightly unsteady. It was obvious that facing the majestic aura of the palace at such a close distance was not a good feeling for them.
However, although the divine light above the ancient palace was still shining, it was now very dim.
This was the result of the cultivators of the Hades after such a long time.
The seal set up by a Fifth Stage Demon King could only be broken with their Aurous Core Stage cultivation. If they wanted to break it, they could only do it slowly.
Li Zun, who had previously escaped into the Demon Spirit Tomb, was standing at the front of this group of Hades cultivators. He held an extremely high-quality array disc in his hand and was leading them in breaking the Demon Spirit Tomb's defensive restrictions.
"We don't have much time left. Everyone, use your secret techniques now. Don't worry about harming your core. As long as we can bring back the body of the Gengjin Tiger King, all of your losses will be recouped." Li Zun bellowed, "If we don't hurry, all of our efforts will go to waste. All of our efforts over the years will go to waste!"
"Understood!" All the cultivators of the Hades answered in unison, and the spiritual energy in their bodies immediately surged.
In the next moment, spiritual light that was several times more powerful than before flashed out from the formation plate and bombarded the ancient palace.
Boom! Boom!
Under this crazy bombardment, the ancient palace released a muffled sound. It shook a few times, and radiance scattered down.
Under the overwhelming spiritual light, the power of the seal was quickly dissipating. The spiritual light on the surface of the palace began to boil and gradually dissipate.
On the door of the ancient palace, a mysterious demonic pattern appeared. However, in the next moment, the demonic pattern suddenly exploded.
Following that, the extremely mystical ancient palace lost all its luster.
The underground palace lost its light source and suddenly became dark.
"The seal has been lifted!" Li Zun suppressed the excitement in his heart. At this moment, he still maintained a trace of rationality. He casually assigned a cultivator in black robes of the Hades and said coldly, "You, go and check out the situation."
The cultivator in black robes of the Hades trembled in fear.
However, he still did not dare to disobey Li Zun's order. He could only tremble as he walked to the front of the ancient palace. He stretched out his hands and carefully placed them on the tightly shut door.
Chi!
The seemingly heavy door of the ancient palace opened a small gap just like that.
"Continue!" Li Zun's expression was one of ecstasy.
The cultivator in black robes did not suspect anything and hurriedly increased his strength.
Rumble!
Suddenly, the door of the ancient palace shook violently. The gap grew bigger and bigger until it finally opened completely, revealing the situation inside.
In the center of the palace, there was a huge coffin made of black iron lying horizontally. It was ten feet long, fifty to sixty feet wide, and more than a foot tall. It shone with divine light and was so strange that it did not look like a coffin.
On the surface of the coffin, there were many strange patterns and patterns carved on it. Li Zun could not understand their meaning.
However, he did not care about that. Instead, he urged the cultivator in black robes to continue forward.
Under Li Zun's pressure, the cultivator in black robes had no choice but to walk into the palace fearfully.
However, until he reached the black iron coffin, he did not encounter any attacks or other abnormal situations.
Li Zun, who was watching the situation inside the palace from outside, did not let down his guard even at this time. He ordered again, "Open the coffin and see what's inside!"
Although he was terrified, the cultivator in black robes was no longer timid. After experiencing two frightening situations in a row and coming out unscathed in the end, he simply steeled his heart and nimbly tried to open the coffin lid.
.....
In front of them was a vast expanse of emptiness. The group advanced into the depths of the palace. After passing through five forks in the road, their eyes inevitably turned scarlet.
The murderous aura grew thicker and was everywhere. It was impossible for them to block it out.
Under the situation where the murderous aura seeped into their souls, they felt their emotions become much more irritable.
However, they finally reached the end of the palace complex and found the cultivator in Hades.
This was an unusually wide square. In the middle of the square, there was a deep, dark underground pool. The calm surface of the pool did not have the slightest ripple. However, it was covered with an extremely dense layer of blood-red baleful aura that had already condensed into a substance.
Looking past the pool, they could see an ancient palace with an open door.
In front of the ancient palace, nearly a hundred cultivators in Hades stood in a circle with solemn expressions, watching the situation inside the ancient palace closely.
From Lu Qingshan's angle, they could see the scene inside the ancient palace at a glance.
They could clearly see a cultivator in black robes with both hands on the coffin lid, trying to open the huge coffin lid.
"Boom!"
There was a dull vibration. After the cultivator in black robes pushed a corner of the coffin lid open, it made a loud clang and shook violently. A strange invisible force appeared and pulled the cultivator in black robes in Hades.
"Ah …"
"Save me!"
In the next moment, the black-robed cultivator let out a panicked scream as his entire body fell into the giant black iron coffin. Following that, the giant coffin once again made a clanging sound, and the coffin lid actually closed in an extremely strange manner.
