After hearing what Nie Yun said, Shen Hao knew something in his heart. If Nie Yun is used as a reference for individual strength, the strength of the Blood Clothes Sect, one of the three leaders in Wushou City, is definitely about the same as that of a super sect like Wanjuan Shushan, and even has the potential to surpass it.
By analogy, the Coffin Sect and the Changsheng Sect, which are both the three leaders, are probably as strong as the Blood Clothes Sect. That means there are at least three powerful super sects in Wusi City who are supporting it.
"You seem to be very interested in the City of Wasted Death?"
"Of course I am curious about such a mysterious place. But what is going on in that underground palace? Has Brother Nie ever been in it?"
Nie Yun shook his head and said with regret on his face: "I have been to the ruined area outside the underground palace once. It is similar to the Sword Emperor Tomb we went to last time. Well, it should not have as many good things as the Sword Emperor Tomb. It can be harvested. But I have never been to the official range of the underground palace. Every year, the number of sects in the Jingjiu Dynasty that are allowed to enter is limited, and the official area of the underground palace is very dangerous. Usually monks from the Xuanhai Realm are responsible for exploring, like me His cultivation level is still a bit lacking."
Shen Hao knew that the underground palace of Wusi City was divided into two parts: the main area and the secondary area. These matters were also mentioned in Xuan Qingwei's documents and the intelligence returned from Blackwater's investigation, but they were not very detailed.
So Shen Hao then asked: "What does the outer underground palace look like? Does it really look like a palace?"
"Palace? Haha, the underground palace is just a collective name for the ruins under the City of Fushun. How can they all be underground palaces? The main area is said to be wider. There are palaces but not many, and there are many mazes. There is almost no palace in the secondary area. , more ruins, messy.
In fact, your Jingjiu Dynasty must have detailed records about the underground palace in Wusi City, but I guess you can't access it with your current status. It's the same in our sect, I can't get in touch with the core things. "
Nie Yun's words reminded Shen Hao of the topmost monk institution in the old Jing Dynasty: Fenghong Villa. Maybe the secrets Nie Yun mentioned are stored in Fenghong Villa, and with his current status, he really can't see them as Nie Yun said.
But even just a few words from Nie Yun's mouth still made Shen Hao find a "key point".
That is the word "maze".
For Shen Hao, these two words have been in his heart for a long time. At the same time, they are also associated with "maze" and "city of vain death".
When Shen Hao first knew about the City of Wasted Death, it was actually because of the three strange Yin Jade maps in his hand.
Shen Hao had previously speculated on the origin of these three Yin Jade maps, and they should have come from special places. With the appearance of Yin Jade, ordinary monks cannot see the strange red lines on the map at all. They will only collect or sell it as a rare large piece of Yin Jade, and its value will not be very high. But in Shen Hao's eyes, he could see a map on it.
One of the three Yinyu maps confirmed that the location marked on the map was the City of Fusi. The other two are connected together to form an incomplete maze route map.
Although there are still few clues in hand, Shen Hao has long been convinced that those maps are the underground palace of the City of Waste.
Is it a treasure map? Or a roadmap to a secret?
Shen Hao had also thought before that this map must have existed for a very long time, and maybe the secrets in it had been taken away by others first. So although Shen Hao had expectations in his heart at that time, he didn't pay much attention to it later.
But until someone came to him for the Yin Jade, and even wanted to kill him to seize the treasure, he realized that it was very likely that the Yin Jade in his hand had not been captured first.
But Fusi City is not a place like Fengri City or Lianfeng City, and it is even more impossible to go and leave whenever you want. Later, Shen Hao asked the people from Heishui to sneak into the City of Death to spread their sights, and they wanted to be the front line for him to enter the City of Death to explore the maze.
In addition, many people have known for a long time that Master Shen likes to collect some rare Yin jade as a collection. People who flatter themselves will naturally do what they like.
Anyway, yin jade is not a rare commodity. Although large pieces of yin jade are rare, it is not impossible. There is always a way to get it and give it to Lord Shen as a gift.
Master Shen generally does not accept gifts, but Yin Yu is an exception. He will not return them, but will convert them into money and return the money without returning the goods. At the end, he will also say "I accept it with kindness", which makes the gift giver even more They flock to Yin jade like a bird.
Don't underestimate the abilities of those who want to rely on Shen Hao's big tree. If it were some treasure pills or high-grade magic weapons or even spiritual stones, they might still be unable to handle it, but Yin Yu couldn't stop them.
Therefore, Shen Hao's house has a special "treasure room" for storing Yin jade, which is very tightly guarded. It looks like a favorite place of the master. There are dozens of Yin jade pieces as small as a palm in different shapes. It seems that Shen Hao really has a hobby of collecting this stuff.
But no one knows that these Yin jade in the storage room are not all the Yin jade that Shen Hao received. Two of them are not in this storage room, but in Shen Hao's storage bag.
The previous three pieces, plus the two pieces that came later, Shen Hao now has five pieces of Yinyu Map in his hand.
The last two pieces are not connected to the previous three pieces, but have separate patterns. But these two Yin Jade maps still gave Shen Hao some information. One of them shows a separate and complete regiment for the first time. It's an ancient monster head without eyes. Under the beast's head is a fragment of a map, which is also the route map of the maze.
The other Yinyu map has no markings, it is just a road map, but it does not go to the side in all directions, with no beginning or end.
"If you want to enter the underground palace, what are the conditions?"
After taking a few more sips of wine, Nie Yun was not surprised by Shen Hao's question. The Underground Palace of Fusi City is already arousing curiosity. In addition, Shen Hao had benefited from the Sword Emperor Tomb before. Nie Yun felt that Shen Hao wanted to go in to get some benefits, so he kept asking.
So Nie Yun replied: "The secondary area of the underground palace is where each sect sends disciples through their respective quotas. On the one hand, it is for experience, and on the other hand, it is also for exploration and harvesting.
The main areas of the underground palace are also based on quotas. Usually it is the senior members of the sect who go there.
The quotas are allocated based on the strength of the sect. For example, a first-class sect can have two places to enter the main area of the underground palace for half a month every year; there are five places to enter the secondary area. There will be more super sects, but I don’t know exactly how many more. Similarly, there are fewer second-rate sects. "
Shen Hao frowned when he heard this and asked, "What else? Is there any other way?"
"Of course there is. For example, the Jing Jiu Dynasty relied on providing materials to the City of Waishi to have the same treatment as a super sect. Or they spent a lot of money to buy the qualifications to enter the underground palace from the small sects in the City of Waishi."
