"Alright, I've wronged you." Xiao Chen took the initiative to apologize. In fact, he knew that Fengsha Sword meant well. How could he not know his brother's thoughts?
"Big Brother, it's not easy to open this door." Fengsha Sword said seriously, "If you want to break it by force, you'll need to have the strength of a Supreme Heavenly God. We haven't reached that level yet. It seems like we have to think of another way."
"Xiao Sha, you're not an expert in breaking all kinds of Prohibition Spells. This small task has to be done by you, hehe." Xiao Chen smiled humorously.
"Small task?" Fengsha Sword was speechless. "This is a Prohibition Spell set up by the Sword Shadow Emperor. Do you think it's an energy barrier set up by a Demigod?"
"I'm joking, haha." Xiao Chen laughed and said, "Xiao Sha, let's go and see if there are other entrances."
"Even if there are other entrances, they must be closed." Fengsha Sword concluded and began to look for suspicious places on the door. He believed that there must be a way to open the door.
Xiao Chen stopped joking and began to look for suspicious places on the palace door and the nearby walls. Since there was a door, it must be possible to open it. Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a door.
Xiao Chen and Fengsha Sword looked for an hour but found nothing. They were a little discouraged, but they didn't give up. If they gave up, they would be trapped in the forbidden area for the rest of their lives.
"Eh?"
Xiao Chen glanced at the other six palaces and found a pair of white jade lions placed in front of each palace. He had a flash of inspiration and quickly looked away.
He suddenly turned around and faced the pair of white jade lions placed in front of the first palace door. Xiao Chen slowly walked to the white jade lion on the right and began to walk around it.
Swoosh.
When the Fengsha Sword saw Xiao Chen circling around the white jade lion, it was curious. So it flew to Xiao Chen's side and asked in confusion, "Big Brother, why are you circling around a stone lion?"
"Xiao Sha, my intuition tells me that the mechanism to open the palace's gate lies with this pair of stone lions," Xiao Chen said confidently.
"The mechanism is on the stone lion?" The Fengsha Sword was slightly stunned, but he immediately agreed, "Big brother, your guess might be right. That old bastard Sword Shadow Emperor's intelligence is only so high. Hehehe."
"Err … What does this have to do with Emperor Shadow Sword's intelligence?" Xiao Chen felt a little speechless. He was defeated by the strange logic of the Fengsha Sword. He was too lazy to argue with the Fengsha Sword, so he continued to carefully examine every part of the white jade lion.
"I'm the best at finding mechanisms. I'll do it!" The Infernal Flame Sword volunteered and said. It looked around on the white jade lion and used the body of its sword to lightly tap the white jade lion from time to time to listen to the sound.
Xiao Chen could not help but smile when he saw the Fengsha Sword's actions. His gaze inadvertently swept across the white jade lion's base and found that it was round. He instinctively reached out his hands to try to turn the white jade lion.
It did not move!
Xiao Chen was using his strength in a clockwise direction, but the white jade The Lion King did not move at all. It was obvious that he had guessed wrong.
"Big brother, try turning it in the opposite direction," the Fengsha Sword suggested.
"Opposite direction? Alright, I'll try. " Xiao Chen did as he was told. He used his hands to turn the white jade lion anticlockwise, but it still did not move. He could not help but feel disappointed.
"Eh? Big brother, increase your strength! "The Fengsha Sword suddenly said loudly, as if he had discovered something strange.
"Increase my strength?"
Xiao Chen did not understand the meaning of the Fengsha Sword. He had already used about 50% of his strength. Not to mention turning the white jade lion, he could even turn a mountain. Although he was puzzled, he followed the instructions of the Fengsha Sword and gradually increased his strength.
"Kacha, kacha …" When Xiao Chen increased his strength to about 90%, a slight sound came from the base of the white jade lion. The white jade lion had actually started to move.
"It's really moving! Big brother, keep it up! Hahaha! "The Fengsha Sword was overjoyed and cheered for Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Sha, I've used all my strength, hehe." Xiao Chen joked. He had indeed used almost all his strength. If he still could not turn the white jade lion, then there was nothing he could do.
"Ha!"
Realizing that he had found the mechanism, Xiao Chen's spirit was lifted. He shouted in a deep voice and used all his strength. He was secretly surprised that the mechanism of the white jade lion was unusually difficult to turn.
"Big brother, look at how breathless you are. You need to exercise more in the future, hehehe." The Fengsha Sword was still in the mood to tease Xiao Chen. Obviously, he was in a good mood after discovering the mechanism.
Xiao Chen glared at the Fengsha Sword and said gloomily, "Xiao Sha, it's easy for you to say that. Why don't you give it a try?"
"Big brother, I don't have hands. I can't help even if I want to. Hehe." The Fengsha Sword laughed.
Xiao Chen could not be bothered with the Fengsha Sword. He continued to use his strength to turn the white jade lion. After turning half a circle, the palace gate did not move at all. So he continued to turn the white jade lion.
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Xiao Chen successfully turned the white jade lion three times. What made him depressed was that the palace gate still did not move. He could only continue to push the white jade lion.
"Big brother, you can do it. It's almost done. I think it will be done in six more circles. You can do it, you can do it …" The Fengsha Sword seemed to enjoy watching Xiao Chen's strenuous expression and kept cheering for Xiao Chen.
"Six more circles …"
Xiao Chen rolled his eyes and almost fainted. He had only turned three circles in the time it took for an incense stick to burn. Wouldn't nine circles take three incense sticks to burn? One incense stick's time was about an hour. Wouldn't three incense sticks' time be equivalent to three hours?
This was simply hard work! Xiao Chen was speechless about the strange mechanism set by the Sword Shadow Emperor. It required a huge amount of strength and time. Wasn't this fooling people?
Nine circles was the Fengsha Sword's guess. If it wasn't nine circles, but ninety, nine hundred, nine thousand … he did not dare to think about the rest. This terrifying thought appeared in Xiao Chen's mind, but he was so scared that he threw the thought out of his mind.
Nine circles was still acceptable, but ninety was a little scary. Nine hundred circles could scare people to death, and nine thousand circles could scare people to death several times. Xiao Chen now hoped that the Fengsha Sword was right. After all, nine circles was not a lot.
"Nine circles, huff …"
Two hours later, Xiao Chen had finally spun the white jade lion nine times. He was so tired that he was panting. He stopped and turned around to look at the palace gate, only to find that there was still no movement from the gate. He said in a weak voice, "
"It can't be? It's still not opening … Don't tell me I really have to turn hundreds or thousands of circles? Sword Shadow Emperor, do you have to trick your junior like this? "
"Big Brother, continue. There's nothing I can do if the gate doesn't open. I can only trouble you, hehe." The Fengsha Sword said helplessly. However, his laughter made people feel like he was taking pleasure in other people's misfortune.
Xiao Chen let go of the white jade lion and said to the Fengsha Sword in a bad mood, "Xiao Sha, it's up to you now …"
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …" Before Xiao Chen could finish his sentence, the White Jade Lion began to spin in a clockwise direction. Within the span of a single breath, it had spun nine times, then stopped moving.
The white jade lion had actually automatically restored itself!
"This … Motherf * cker!" Looking at the white jade lion that had instantly returned to its original position, but there was still no movement from the palace gate, Xiao Chen couldn't help but curse after being stunned for a while.
At this moment, Xiao Chen wanted to cry but had no tears. After working hard for one and a half hours, the white jade lion instantly returned to its original position as soon as he let go. One and a half hours of hard work had been wasted. This was simply too much to ask.
"What a scam …" The Fengsha Sword was also speechless at the design of such a scam mechanism. He was no longer in the mood to continue teasing Xiao Chen. He said helplessly, "Big Brother, I also didn't expect this to happen. I can only trouble you to start from the beginning …"
"I know. Pfft! Keep pushing. I don't believe that I can't push a stone lion! " Xiao Chen's stubborn temper flared up. He spat on his palm and rubbed his hands together. Then, he began to push the white jade lion violently. It seemed like he was going to fight it out with the white jade lion.
"Big Brother, do your best! You can do it! Think about it. When you open the palace gate, it'll be filled with supreme artifacts, supreme supernatural powers, and supreme beauties … You'll be motivated, hehe. "
The Fengsha Sword began to cheer for Xiao Chen again. He even used a lot of unrealistic things to tempt Xiao Chen. Wasn't he even worse than the Sword Shadow Emperor?
