"Click!"
Suddenly, a loudspeaker sounded in their ears, and the entire underground palace seemed to be moving.
Both of their expressions changed as they both realized what had happened. Zhao De could actually control the underground palace's mechanisms!
"Boohoo!"
At this moment, densely packed crossbow arrows shot through the thick fog towards the two of them.
The two of them dodged immediately, but the speed of the crossbow was too fast. After hearing the sound, it was only a few meters away from them, almost in the blink of an eye.
Wang Cheng pulled out the black sword hidden at his waist and kept swinging at the incoming crossbow arrows.
"Ding ding ding!"
Many crossbow arrows were shot away on the spot, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a shower of arrows was fired from the left and right at the same time.
Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for Wang Cheng to block crossbow arrows from three directions at once, let alone this situation?
Because the dense fog obscured their mind and their power of thought was suppressed, the two could only identify their location by listening to the sound, but by the time they identified their location, the crossbow arrows had already arrived.
Sure enough, from ancient times to the present, the underground palace has always been dangerous. In the past, it was only when the mechanisms were closed that he could move freely in the underground palace.
The black sword in Wang Cheng's hand was so fast that only the shadows of the sword could be seen. As soon as he took action to block the crossbow arrows from the right, the one from the left was already coming.
After all, he is only one person and cannot do the clone technique. Does he really have to catch those crossbow arrows?
"rise!"
At this moment, a soft shout sounded in Wang Cheng's ears, and a whirlwind suddenly appeared around him.
The whirlwind instantly expanded to several meters in diameter, and all the incoming crossbow arrows were caught in the whirlwind.
"What a powerful spell!"
Wang Cheng looked at the woman in black standing next to him. Although he had not practiced a few spells seriously, he could still see that this spell was extremely skillful.
If you want to use this Taoist technique, your cultivation level must at least reach the realm of controlling objects, otherwise you will not be able to control the strong wind at all.
Wang Cheng was secretly surprised. So far, this should be the third Taoist he has seen in his twenties who has reached the realm of controlling objects.
One is himself, the other is Yu Zhengang, the leader of the Yulong Gang, and the other is the woman in black in front of him.
In the past, he thought that he had the Soul-Eating Pearl, and it was not surprising that he had reached this level. But now it seems that there are many people who have deep opportunities, especially those with great influence.
"Dudududu!"
Crossbow arrows were shot from all directions like a storm, but they were all blocked by the whirlwind.
Several waves in a row were blocked, but the long-term use of this spell was extremely draining of mind power, and the woman in black gradually became exhausted.
Wang Cheng frowned his thick eyebrows, held a black sword in his hand, and instantly dodged out of the whirlwind.
"what are you doing?"
The woman in black was frightened. Was she seeking death by rushing out at this time?
Just as she was about to go check out the situation, a few crossbow arrows shot through the whirlwind. She quickly gathered her thoughts and didn't let the whirlwind dissipate.
That’s it!
Although she wanted to rescue Wang Cheng, it seemed difficult to achieve it now.
"Ding ding ding!"
Suddenly, she heard dense crashing sounds, and then saw Wang Cheng walking into the whirlwind holding a four-legged bronze cauldron with both hands.
The big bronze cauldron faced down, covering most of his body, and all the arrows hit the cauldron wall.
The woman in black was a little dumbfounded. He thought Wang Cheng had just run away in fear of death, but it turned out that he was going to move this thing.
But I have to admire Wang Cheng's method, although it seems reckless, but it is currently the most effective.
"come on in!"
Wang Cheng didn't care whether the woman in black answered or not, he covered her underneath.
Although the bronze cauldron is over one meter long and nearly one meter wide, it is still very crowded for two adults at once.
The two of them were almost touching each other, and they could feel each other's breath clearly.
Their eyes met, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment, and everyone was at a loss.
"Ding ding ding!"
Crossbow arrows from multiple directions continuously hit the bronze cauldron, and the dense impact sound immediately destroyed the atmosphere inside the cauldron.
The two looked away from each other's face at the same time, both feeling a little embarrassed.
The woman in black lowered her head. She didn't know what was happening to her face under the human-skin mask, but her ears were red.
"Can you...can you go back a little bit? I...I'm a little uncomfortable."
The woman in black used telepathy to transmit messages to Wang Cheng without speaking.
At present, the fog is covering the entire underground palace. Zhaode cannot see them, but he can identify their location based on their voices. Telepathy is undoubtedly the safest method.
When Wang Cheng heard this, he immediately moved his body back, but the space inside the cauldron was so big, where could he move?
The big cauldron was only over one meter high, and the two of them were held upside down underneath, so they were all squatting.
Wang Cheng was quite big and almost curled up in the cauldron. With this movement, the cauldron also moved with it.
As a result, the woman in black was pushed forward by the cauldron wall on her back. Her center of gravity was unstable as she squatted on the ground, and her head hit Wang Cheng's arms directly.
Wang Cheng subconsciously reached out to help, but his hands touched places that shouldn't have been touched.
The soft and elastic feeling made his heart shudder, and he forgot to take his hand away for a moment.
The woman in black herself was stunned. After three full seconds, she pushed Wang Cheng away.
It was okay if he didn't push. After pushing, his head hit the wall of the cauldron with a "bang".
She was so excited that she burst into tears.
Wang Cheng panicked and tried to move his hands again. He just stretched out his hands and stopped.
He stretched out his hand out of a subconscious reaction to protect others, but the effect was completely opposite. It was easy for people to misunderstand, so he didn't dare to reach out casually anymore.
Seeing the other person's tears, he didn't know what to say for a moment and hesitated: "I... are you... okay?"
The woman in black endured the pain, shook her head, and then reached out to wipe away her tears.
The human skin mask had already begun to peel after being wetted with tears, and when it was rubbed hard, it fell off the face.
A beautiful face appeared in front of Wang Cheng.
This is a flawless face, as fragile as a newborn baby, making people want to kiss it.
He has picturesque eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and a pair of eyes as bright as black gems. At this moment, he is showing a bit of panic, like a frightened deer, which makes me feel pity for him.
Wang Cheng was dumbfounded and couldn't help but say "so beautiful" in his heart!
Yes, it is really beautiful, so beautiful that it feels unreal, like a person in a painting.
Wang Cheng has seen many beauties, including many beautiful stars in movies and TV dramas. If we really want to compare, only Shen Yuanyuan can compare with her.
However, the woman in black exuded a temperament that was unlike any other woman he had ever seen.
It is a kind of unknown temperament, a temperament that combines nobility, holiness, elegance and so on.
I can't imagine how one person can have so many different temperaments and still be so coordinated.
Who is this person?
Really just a maid?
Wang Cheng had many thoughts flashing through his mind, so he kept staring at the other person's face.
"Don't look!"
The woman in black glared at Wang Cheng and hurriedly put the human skin mask on her face again.
Wang Cheng also realized that he was rude, quickly looked away from the other person's face, and then changed the subject: "What should we do next?"
"This crossbow arrow is not endless. It should be over in a moment." The woman in black speculated.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the crossbow arrows fired at them suddenly disappeared.
"Walk!"
The woman in black lifted the bronze cauldron covering her head. The bronze cauldron weighing several thousand kilograms was like a child's toy in her hands.
Wang Cheng was secretly shocked. He never expected that such a fragile-looking woman could burst out with such huge power and seem to be able to do so with ease.
Her real power must be more than this, maybe her Qi and blood have reached the level of Dacheng.
Suppressing the surprise in his heart, Wang Cheng lifted the bronze cauldron into the air, but then he was knocked into his arms.
Wang Cheng lowered his head and saw that it was the woman in black. She actually threw herself into his arms again.
Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he heard the urgent voice of the woman in black.
"careful!"
"careful?"
Wang Cheng was thinking about what to be careful about when a huge force came from the bronze cauldron and almost knocked him down.
"clang!!!"
At the same time, a loud noise caused him to lose hearing in both ears and blood flowed from all his orifices.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
…
A huge landing sound was heard at the same time, and large rocks were smashed down from the top of the underground palace. Each piece was more than fifty centimeters in diameter and weighed at least three hundred kilograms.
Wang Cheng's mind was spinning. After he woke up a little, he immediately realized what had happened.
A big stone dropped from a height of more than 30 meters can make a person's flesh and blood fly everywhere.
Fortunately, he had great strength and the bronze cauldron he held was strong enough. Otherwise, even an ordinary martial artist would have been seriously injured in that moment.
"Get out of here!"
There was no need for the woman in black to remind Wang Cheng himself that they were in big trouble.
This big bronze cauldron can never stop the big rocks falling from the air. Once the bronze cauldron is smashed, they will really become a living target.
In other circumstances, they would have been able to hide, but now they were surrounded by thick fog, and it was too late to hide.
"clang!!"
Another big stone hit the bronze cauldron. Although Wang Cheng had been prepared in advance, Wang Cheng was still shocked to the point that his arms were numb and his blood was rising.
Both of his legs were sunk into the soil below the knees, but his mind was entirely on the bronze cauldron.
The most worrying situation appeared. After being hit twice by big rocks, the bronze cauldron had begun to deform.
The situation of the woman in black was much better than him, because she had taken precautions beforehand and did not suffer any trauma.
"What should I do?" Wang Cheng asked.
The woman in black said: "Don't go into the room!"
Wang Cheng didn't understand. In this situation, staying in the room was obviously much better than staying outside.
The woman in black explained: "The underground palace mechanism has been activated. The room seems safe, but in fact it is the most dangerous place. There will definitely be other mechanisms in the room. Once you enter, you will be trapped in a cage!"
When Wang Cheng heard this, he immediately gave up the idea of entering the room. When he went to move the bronze cauldron earlier, there were dense holes in the walls of the room, and those crossbow arrows were shot from the room.
But if they can't even go to their room, then where should they go?
