As far as Gu Xu knows, the inner treasury of the royal family is a very special place - it exists nominally within Luojing Imperial City, but in fact it is hidden in the gaps in space with the help of space formations. As a result, people cannot reach this place directly from the outside world and must use teleportation spells.
Because of this, "Bai Chen" had to sneak into the "Luoshui Conference" and master the spatial coordinates through Yinjiuji, so that he could successfully reach the inner treasury of the royal family.
In the next period of time, Gu Xu walked through the rows of cabinets in the royal palace, his eyes quickly scanning each label.
"Qinggang Sword", "Devil-Slaying Sword", "Void Treasure Mirror", "Soul-Calling Flag", "Lingxue Pearl"...
Some of these names he had seen in books, some he had never heard of. But he knows that these things are extremely powerful magic weapons. If he is lucky enough to get a suitable one, his combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.
But his attention did not stay on these things for too long.
Because when he entered the royal treasury, he felt a disembodied voice calling him not far away.
In addition, the white-haired boy hiding deep in the world of his consciousness seemed to have awakened - although he did not speak, Gu Xu could faintly feel his expectant and urgent emotions.
The wind was blowing and dust was flying.
Under the guidance of intuition, Gu Xu quickly walked around to an inconspicuous corner deep in the warehouse.
He slowly knelt down and stared at an old cabinet door in front of him. The labels on the cabinet doors were dusty and tattered.
"Astrolabe." m..
There are only two simple words written on the label, without any extra description.
Gu Xu stared at it for a while, then reached out to pull the cabinet door.
There is no lock on the cabinet door.
But the moment his fingertips came into contact with it, a golden light suddenly flashed through the crack in the door - Gu Xu knew that this was to verify his identity.
There was only a "creak" sound, and the cabinet door opened outwards.
A bronze object with a simple shape appeared in Gu Xu's field of vision.
It was not the disc shape he had imagined.
It is an irregular figure similar to a fan shape.
He slowly took it out, held it in his hand, and observed it carefully.
In an instant, the true energy in his body grew rapidly like boiling, and surged through his meridians like a flood that broke a bank. At this moment, he faintly felt the opportunity to break through.
The surface of the "astrolabe" is engraved with complex patterns.
Gu Xu knew that this was a star map, depicting the positions of the stars in the sky.
But he also saw that this star map was incomplete.
The complete star map contains "Three Yuans, Four Symbols and Twenty-eight Constellations" - "Three Yuans" are the three areas around the North Celestial Pole, namely "Ziwei Yuan", "Taiwei Yuan" and "Tianshi Yuan"; "Four Symbols" It refers to the star field in the four directions of east, west, south and north. According to the distribution of its stars, it is imagined as the image of the four mythical beasts: green dragon, white tiger, red bird and Xuanwu; each image is divided into seven segments, called "Suzhou". "There are twenty-eight nights in total.
But in this star map, there are only the "Three Walls" in the center and the image of Suzaku in the south.
——The elephant of the Canglong in the East, the White Tiger in the West, and the Black Tortoise in the North are all missing.
"Is this 'astrolabe' in my hand incomplete?" Gu Xu secretly thought to himself, "Because it is missing several important parts, it is not the circle I imagined, but this Such an irregular appearance?"
However, the incomplete "astrolabe" contained such majestic power - in just a short moment, he almost stepped half way to the threshold of the fourth realm.
Gu Xu couldn't imagine how terrifying the power it would be if the complete astrolabe was in his hands.
He originally planned to seize this opportunity and immediately break through the situation where he was.
However, considering that there was an unidentified powerful ghost not far away, he gave up this plan and decided to find a safe place to break through to the fourth realm after leaving the royal treasury.
After all, as we all know, breaking through a realm requires full concentration. If it is interfered with by the outside world, it may fail, and it may even lead to chaos in the true energy, and one can go crazy if one is not careful.
…………
On the other side of the royal family's inner treasury, Zhao Yan stood in front of a tall cabinet, looking at the label on the cabinet door, her mood fluctuating.
The word "flint" is written on the label, and its origin is noted next to it.
It briefly describes the history of Emperor Taizu of the Qi Dynasty conquering the Northern Kingdom of Yan - the last King of Yan presented the most precious "flint" to Emperor Taizu as a sign of surrender. From then on, there was no longer a King of Yan in the north in the Great Wilderness, only the Kingdom of Yan in Youzhou. male.
This passage seems to be describing facts, but between the lines there are hidden praises for Emperor Taizu and the Daqi royal family.
Seeing such content, most Qi people may feel proud, but for a descendant of Dayan like Zhao Yan, they have mixed feelings.
"Today, let me take you back to the land of Dayan," Zhao Yan stared at the word "flint" with burning eyes and murmured, "The sacred object made by the great 'Vulcan' himself should be To protect her people, not to lie gathering dust in this dark corner."
As she spoke, she reached for the cabinet door.
There was no movement from the cabinet door.
It seemed to be extremely heavy, and no matter how much effort she exerted, she could not pull it away.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on Zhao Yan's face.
She felt that she should have thought that in a place like the royal treasury where valuable treasures are stored, not only would there be many obstacles to entering, but each treasure would also have to be insured.
Perhaps it is because for the descendant of Dayan, "flint" is of too great significance, and it can activate her bloodline and greatly increase her strength.
So when she saw the space passage and realized that she had the opportunity to break into the inner treasury, she did so without hesitation, without spending too much thought on what might happen next.
Of course, Zhao Yan would not give up her plan just because of this mere cabinet door.
She held the "Yizhangwei" tightly, lit the "Holy Fire Totem", gathered all the true energy in her body into the palm of her hand, and prepared to use violent means to break the obstacle in front of her.
However, before she could take action, a black wind swept through the entire room, followed by a loud "bang" sound, and all the cabinet doors were forced open by a terrifying force at the same time.
Zhao Yan narrowed her eyes and glanced at the figure of "Bai Chen" not far away.
Although "Bai Chen" had his back to her at the moment, she could guess that the black wind that instantly pried open all the cabinet doors must be his handiwork.
Then she took a deep breath and looked into the cabinet. _&
