In a desolate and remote plain, a huge, slightly dilapidated palace stood quietly.
"Dahuang Palace"
The group of people looked at the plaque that was several meters high from a distance. The clearly visible writings on it and the faint aura of mountains and rivers behind it made the palace, which was full of cracks and decay, seem even more ominous.
"That's it?"
Qi Yue asked a question, but this time it was not Mu Qingge who was the first to respond to her words, but Qiao Le, "Yes, it's the Great Desolate Hall, I heard Uncle Xia say it."
The Uncle Xia in Qiao Le's mouth is named Xia Shubai. He is the third disciple of the True Monarch Wusheng of Wuming Mountain and the youngest closed disciple.
"Have you heard of it?" Qi Yue looked at her in surprise.
I never heard her talk about it all this time.
Qiao Le scratched his head in embarrassment at her sight and explained, "I don't know much, I just heard Uncle Xia mention it casually."
The only thing that is true is that there is an elder above Qiao Le who is also a disciple of Wumingshan. When she was running errands for that elder, she heard the elder ask, "Are you going to the underground palace?"
Then Uncle Xia replied at that time, "Yes, there is something strange in the Great Wilderness Hall of the Underground Palace. Master asked me to take a look."
After they noticed Qiao Le coming, they didn't talk about what happened next.
In front of her senior brothers, Qiao Le is still a dull and taciturn girl, a well-behaved junior sister who never talks much when she can do something.
In front of two elders who are more than one generation older, he is even more of a good baby.
So, in fact, all Qiao Le knows about the underground palace is a name.
"It is true that only their true disciples know the inside story about the underground palace."
As he said this, Mu Qingge's face turned pale again, almost invisible.
Qi Yue noticed this abnormality and frowned slightly. However, before she could ask, Mu Qingge had already given the two Tianyi Sect disciples a look.
"Stop talking, let's go in quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, she took the lead and walked in front.
When Qi Yue received her message, a strange fire suddenly flashed across his fingertips and then disappeared.
"Let's go!"
Qi Yue brushed down her sleeves as if nothing had happened, and followed along with Qiao Le and others.
"There are people following you, please be careful."
As soon as they entered, the three of them were shocked by Qi Yue's voice transmission.
Then look at the two Tianyi Sect disciples who were already standing next to Mu Qingge, one on the left and the other on the right.
Du Sheng's eyes darkened and he suddenly made a gesture. Qiao Le and Wen Wan'er clenched the swords in their hands and each took a step back. Then the momentum of the three of them changed in unison, with a faint tendency to echo each other.
"What do we need to do?"
Yu Guangxian saw Qi Yue calmly landing at the end, Du Sheng sent the message over, while not forgetting to observe the surrounding environment.
What they saw when they entered was the front hall, which was empty. Except for the unusually low temperature, they didn't notice anything unusual for the time being.
However, thinking of what Qi Yue had just reminded them, Du Sheng put his hand on the hilt of his sword and began to rub it gently.
This is a little habit he makes before taking action.
Obviously, this sudden tracking made Du Sheng's vigilance reach its highest level.
Qi Yue replied: "Mu Qingge will open the way, I will support you, and the three of you will stay behind. If you find anything, please send a message to me immediately, and don't act rashly."
This is a warning to them not to be reckless. The dangers in the Great Desolate Palace are no less than those outside. If they make their own decisions, don't blame her for being cruel and ignoring them.
"Okay!" Du Sheng nodded slightly.
Qiao Le and Wen Wan'er didn't have any objections. There were seven people in the group. Although they didn't want to admit it, Mu Qingge alone was indeed worth the three of them.
Therefore, in cooperation, they play the smallest role and have the lowest say.
If they continue to disobey, they will be the first to be given up when in danger.
Don't say here that they are all companions who have walked all the way. They have to weigh the pros and cons when encountering danger, so they say Qi Yue is ruthless.
snort!
Before life and death, are other people's lives more important than yours?
Walking into the long corridor, seven people lined up in a three-one-three formation.
clatter! clatter! clatter!
The sound like water drops suddenly sounded in Qi Yue's ears.
However, her consciousness scanned the entire corridor, but she didn't find anything related to water drops.
He also saw other people looking wary, their eyes constantly scanning every corner.
Qi Yue lowered her eyes slightly, looking at the strange fire that was still burning in her hand without any warning. She whispered and asked if she heard any sounds before and after.
Qiao Le: "Did Fellow Daoist Qi also hear a woman crying?"
Du Sheng: "The roar of the beast is very noisy."
Wen Wan'er gritted her teeth, "Yes, the sound was like a snake crawling. But I didn't find any snakes nearby. Did Fellow Daoist Qi hear the sound?"
One disciple in two days said: "Yes, it's the voice of the old woman" and "I heard the cry of a baby here".
Mu Qingge replied to everyone, "Don't worry, they are testing us."
This passage didn't look long, but for some reason I didn't reach the end after walking for a while.
It was Mu Qingge who moved his hand and threw a sieve into a corner.
I saw that the sieve was submerged, and the surrounding environment instantly rippled like water. The scene changed to another palace in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the environment changed, the seven people were immediately attacked.
Qi Yue's strange fire rushed towards the charging resentful spirits, only to hear bursts of miserable screams, they all turned into wisps of black smoke and dissipated.
"Array up!"
Needless to say, Du Sheng and Qiao Le immediately formed a three-talent formation, and three flying swords flew out in one breath, invincible. The same wave also took away all the resentful spirits that rushed towards them.
Mu Qingge threw the Buddhist beads and cast a Buddha's light defensive shield over the three of them, causing all the resentful spirits that came to be destroyed directly on the Buddha's light shield.
But this is just the beginning.
Wraith spirits are invisible and qualityless, and ordinary spells are useless against them. However, it is not a long-term solution to maintain strange fires, flying swords, and Buddhist beads to block the incoming wraith spirits.
Therefore, as soon as the situation was stabilized, Mu Qingge gave Qi Yue some pointers again.
"There is a candle in front of the statue. You light it with strange fire."
Mu Qingge came here relying on Buddhist beads for support, and it took a high-level fire control talisman to light the candles in the palace and escape from here smoothly.
But back again, a steady stream of resentful spirits had extinguished the previous candlelight.
And she brought Qi Yue. If Qi Yue was ignited with strange fire, she didn't know if Qi Yue would be able to support them when they exited the palace.
It should be possible, Mu Qingge was not sure.
"Okay!" Qi Yue immediately took action after hearing her words.
Qi Yue didn't know who the statue in the palace was, but she vaguely thought it was a female figure. But she didn't know if it was because there were too many resentful spirits. When Qi Yue lit the fire, she felt that the statue looked at her in a sinister way. Forest.
If he hadn't been a brave man, he would have been really frightened when he noticed this scene.
Poof!
Two candles of different lengths were lit, and the surrounding resentful spirits let out an unwilling scream and retreated completely the next moment.
Seeing that it was safe for now, Qiao Le let out a breath.
It is indeed more difficult for three people to wield a sword than it is for one person to wield a sword. If they had not had the experience of living and dying together, they would not have been able to exert such great power when they formed the Three Talents Formation.
"How long can this incense last?" Although Qi Yue did not expect that the resentful spirit could extinguish the incense lit by the fire-bending talisman, the traces in the incense burner still made her keenly aware of the importance of incense.
"Three days, so we only have three days."
Mu Qingge's face darkened slightly as he looked at the incense from the incense burner.
I don’t know how many people came after she left. There were only three incense sticks left, but now there are only one and a half left.
"Okay, three days is all. Let's keep walking!"
After Qi Yue said this, Mu Qingge took the lead and entered the passage on the right.
They took the passage on the right as soon as they entered, so they must only take the passage on the right this way.
And don't ask why, just ask that if the road enters from the left and exits from the right, or enters from the right and exits from the left, it will return to the starting point.
It's quite like being in a ghost land. You can only move forward, not backward, otherwise you will never get out of the ghost land.
