"what on earth is it?"
Ling Xiaowu and other people from Taiyi Tianfu looked at the empty first floor and were stunned, "Why is the first floor also empty?"
Lin Feifei and Huo Yuanji heard this and couldn't help asking: "You guys think so, could it be..."
"Yes." Liu Huangcui nodded slightly, "The same goes for the third floor."
Huo Yuanji and Lin Feifei's eyes widened suddenly.
"What? This..."
The two looked at each other in disbelief. Even the third floor is empty. Could it be that this so-called Holy Land of Wind and Rain is actually empty?
This is impossible!
The two almost immediately denied the speculation.
The reason is simple. If this tower is really empty, then why do the previous restrictions exist? Isn't it possible that the ancestors of the Wind and Rain Saint Clan had nothing to do and made fun of their descendants?
Neither Huo Yuanji nor Lin Feifei believed that the ancestors of the Wind and Rain Saint Clan would have such bad tastes. The only possibility is that the Wind and Rain Tower in front of them is not the entire holy land. There must be some places that everyone has ignored. .
What exactly can be ignored?
The two racked their brains for a long time and had no clue. Finally, they looked at Ling Xiaowu and Yu Xiaoxiao in unison.
Ling Xiaowu and Yu Xiaoxiao were slightly startled and looked at them.
"Why...are you looking at us like this?"
Huo Yuanji got straight to the point and asked, "Brother Ling, don't you have any words about the Holy Land left in your family?"
Ling Xiaowu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled bitterly, "I know what you mean. But unfortunately, I really haven't heard my family say anything about this holy land. Or maybe they haven't had time to tell me yet... "
He did not continue, but everyone fell silent.
The Feng family was massacred by the Nine Snakes Society in cooperation with the Futian Sect when he was young. This can be said to be a lifelong pain for Ling Xiaowu. Although he had let go of Wu Chengtian, the culprit of the Nine Snakes Society, in the previous case, this did not mean that he had completely let go of the pain that had accompanied him since childhood.
"I'm afraid it's the same for me." Yu Xiaoxiao also smiled apologetically, "My family has never mentioned anything about this tower. It seems that even they themselves... don't know much about the existence of such a place."
Hearing this, Huo Yuanji and Lin Feifei frowned at the same time.
If so, doesn't it mean that there are no clues?
Just when the two of them were at a loss what to do, Liu Huangcui's expression suddenly changed.
"That is……"
As far as he could see, he saw some faint patterns carved on the wall facing the gate on the first floor of the Wind and Rain Tower. These patterns are inconspicuous and messy. If it hadn't been illuminated by the sunlight coming in from outside the tower, reflecting a special golden glow, they probably wouldn't have been discovered.
"Huh?"
Lin Feifei suddenly let out a light sigh and her eyes flashed slightly. She also saw the golden light on the wall.
"That is……"
"It seems like a pattern?" Huo Yuanji touched his chin slightly and looked at the wall.
"It's not just the lines... look carefully!"
Liu Huangcui's eyes flashed suddenly.
Everyone looked around with their eyes wide open, and saw the messy golden lines, faintly forming a... Tai Chi yin and yang fish pattern.
Immediately... everyone's eyes turned to Ling Xiao Wu Yu Xiaoxiao.
"Could it be..."
At the same time, the two seemed to realize something. After looking at each other, they both saw a firm light in each other's eyes.
The next moment, the two came directly to the wall.
The internal energy inherited from the Fengyu clan suddenly poured into the wall.
Then...a loud noise came...
Following a violent shaking, the originally neat wall suddenly opened a gap. The walls slowly moved to both sides.
Everyone's eyes suddenly showed a look of shock.
Then, under the separated wall, there was actually a... chessboard.
A huge chess board!
"Is that... chess?" Liu Huangcui opened her eyes wide and looked at the chess board.
Ye Xiaohan glanced around and said, "There is a chessboard, but no chess pieces."
Everyone also noticed this.
Huo Yuanji squinted his eyes slightly and said, "This should be another mechanism, but I don't know how to break it?"
Jian Hanxing said: "Most of the mechanisms related to the chessboard... should be related to the chess game. But there are no prompts here, and there are no chess pieces. How to break the game?"
"This..." Liu Huangcui frowned slightly, feeling troubled.
Huo Yuanji stared at the chessboard for a long time. His eyes hurt slightly at the end, but he still couldn't figure out the reason. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It would be great if Brother Chen or Tianhan were here. With their intelligence, , we will definitely be able to see the problem.”
Ling Xiaowu also nodded in agreement.
Although Liu Huangcui was slightly dissatisfied, looking back on her experiences along the way, she had to admit that she was indeed inferior to him in this aspect.
Lin Feifei stared at the chessboard for a moment, then mobilized her spiritual senses to carefully examine the surroundings of the chessboard.
After a moment, she shook her head slightly.
"There are no restricted fluctuations. It seems that there are no restrictions on this chessboard."
Ling Xiaowu sighed slightly disappointedly.
"There are no restricted fluctuations and no other aura of power. Could it be that this is just an ordinary chessboard?" Yu Xiaoxiao stepped forward curiously and subconsciously reached out and touched it.
"Xiaoxiao, no."
Before she finished speaking, the moment Yu Xiaoxiao's hand landed on the chessboard, her whole body suddenly shook, and she actually stood there motionless.
"No...there's something weird about this chessboard."
Almost as soon as Huo Yuanji's words fell, Ling Xiaowu stepped forward and came to Yu Xiaoxiao's side.
At this moment, Yu Xiaoxiao's eyes were lifeless, and she stood there as stiffly as a wooden figure, as if she had completely lost her mind.
"Xiaoxiao..."
"Xiaoxiao..."
Ling Xiaowu shouted eagerly, but the beauty in his arms did not respond at all.
And just when everyone was at a loss what to do about what happened in that moment, something unexpected happened again.
I saw...the originally empty chessboard suddenly glowed with completely different colors of gold and silver.
Huo Yuanji's eyes widened slightly... and he saw that there were sixteen rays of light in each of the two colors, all of which were located on the chess board where the pieces should have been placed.
"Could it be..."
He seemed to have thought of something, and his heart moved slightly.
The next moment, the light on the chessboard slowly converged and condensed, suddenly turning into sixteen gold and silver... chess pieces.
…
…
The moment her hand touched the surface of the chessboard, Yu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt dizzy... Then, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
The original scene inside the pagoda suddenly disappeared, replaced by an empty, pure white space.
"Where...is this?"
Just when Yu Xiaoxiao was confused, ink marks suddenly appeared under her feet. These traces emerged from the surroundings like ink pens crossing white paper, and finally intertwined under her feet.
"Huh? This is..."
Yu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly... The ink marks under his feet formed the shape of a chess board. And his position is exactly the place on the chess board where only generals can stand.
Is this a coincidence or...
Just when she was secretly wondering, several silver figures suddenly appeared around her body, and her appearance was unclear. The position where they stood happened to be the position of the chess pieces on the chessboard.
"It's really not a coincidence!"
Yu Xiaoxiao sighed and looked directly ahead. On the opposite side of the chessboard river boundary, a golden figure of sixteen golden figures whose appearance was also unclear appeared at the right place.
Standing directly opposite him was a golden figure whose face was the only one whose face could be seen clearly.
That was a kind old man with white beard and hair.
The old man looked at Yu Xiaoxiao's position, curved his eyebrows lovingly, and smiled.
"You...are finally here."
