Cheng Yu put away the four keys and prepared to find the treasure house. As for Tianxue and the others, it would be more convenient to let them hide in the Mountain and River Map.
After passing through the long corridor on the right, Cheng Yu came to a stone door, looked at the groove above, took out the blue key and put it into the groove.
Click~click~click~! The stone door slowly opened upwards, and a large side hall appeared in front of Cheng Yu.
Having experienced being trapped several times before, Cheng Yu did not dare to go in immediately, but stretched his head and looked around. The side hall was very empty, at least Cheng Yu couldn't feel any sign of life.
There is a large high platform in the middle, like an altar, with long stone steps leading to the high platform. Cheng Yu slowly walked into the side hall, looking at all directions and listening to all directions, looking very cautious.
Cheng Yu looked around and found that there were nine stone gates in this side hall besides the one he came in from just now. However, the stone gates were all tightly closed, and no grooves could be seen for the mechanism to open the stone gates.
Finally, Cheng Yu turned his attention to the big altar in front of him. Since there are no mechanisms elsewhere, the method to open these stone doors must be on this altar. Cheng Yu would not have encountered such a thing in the three previous palaces. few.
Cheng Yu walked up the stone steps and stood completely on the altar. In front of him was a large stone platform. There was nothing on it, but there were many patterns carved on it. The patterns were large and complex. The entire stone platform was about It is a square two meters long and wide, and the figure occupies almost three-quarters of it.
There are four points on the outside of the pattern. The pattern is exactly the same when unfolded around these four points, forming four regions, southeast, northwest, and each region is connected to a groove in the middle. Cheng Yu can tell at a glance that this is Lan Xin. of groove.
Cheng Yu put the blue heart into the groove, and the pattern on the entire stone platform suddenly lit up, glowing with blue light.
Boom! Suddenly, the stone door through which Cheng Yu came in was closed, while the other nine stone doors slowly opened.
When the nine stone doors were fully opened, there was a faint blue light inside. Cheng Yu knew that this was the light of the blue spirit lamp, just like the blue light on the wall of this side hall.
Cheng Yu took out the blue heart, jumped down from the stone platform, and came to one of the stone doors. Cheng Yu looked inside and found that it was not a secret room, but a passage. Cheng Yu did not go in, but looked at the other eight stone doors.
There is no difference among the nine stone gates. They are all passages, and they appear to be deep and winding. At least Cheng Yu cannot see them.
The end.
Looking at the nine passages glowing with blue light, Cheng Yu hesitated. In his opinion, only one of the nine passages led to the real treasure house.
The other eight passages must be fake. If Cheng Yu doesn't care if they are just fake, Cheng Yu is worried that these other eight passages may be dead ends. If that is the case, Cheng Yu will have to be cautious.
Cheng Yu wandered left and right in front of the nine passages, without making a decision for a long time. Suddenly he felt that the mountain and river map was Tianxue's intention to come out. Cheng Yu released the two of them without thinking much.
"Brother, why don't you go in?" Cheng Yu did not restrict their understanding of the outside situation, so they had already seen everything Cheng Yu saw in the mountain and river map.
But when I saw Cheng Yu wandering around the nine passages, I didn't understand. With what he had gained in the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace last time, Tianxing was obviously a lot more courageous, but he never thought about whether there would be any danger. Haha, he thought there were countless treasures waiting for them in front, so he was a little anxious.
"If my guess is good, only one of the nine gates is correct. The other eight may be dangerous, so I don't know which one is correct." Cheng Yu said, looking at the nine mysterious passages.
"Brother, you are getting more and more timid. With your strength, you can completely sweep through this forest of death. Why are you still worried about this? What's more, if we really found the mistake and just retreated, why bother so much?" Tianxing said very disapprovingly.
In his opinion, the most powerful thing in this forest of death is only the existence of the late Golden Core. Although this forest of death is a bit strange, and the strength of the creatures is higher than the realm shown, but is Cheng Yu not like this?
Although the realm is only at the early stage of the Golden Core, his strength is definitely not lower than that of the late Golden Core. Even if he encounters a monster with such strength in the late Golden Core, he believes that Cheng Yu can defeat it. This is his confidence in Cheng Yu.
Having known Cheng Yu for so long, Tian Xing has seen how powerful Cheng Yu is. No matter how powerful the enemy is, Cheng Yu is stronger than the opponent. Even if he fought alone against more than a dozen Jindan monks, Cheng Yu was still not considered as powerful. The defeat shows that Cheng Yu already has an invincible image in Tianxing's heart.
"What if these eight passages are dead ends?" Cheng Yu said angrily.
"Uh...this..." Tianxing suddenly became silent. He really never thought about this. Thinking of the situation when he was trapped in Wanhua Palace a few days ago, Tianxing suddenly no longer dared to encourage Cheng Yu to wander around.
This is not Cheng Yu's problem alone. Now the three of them can be said to be tied to a rope. If Cheng Yu is finished, they will definitely be finished too.
"I think Tian Xing's statement may not be wrong. There is a very small chance that these other eight passages are dead ends." At this time, Tian Xue, who had been observing back and forth at the entrance of the nine passages, said.
"Oh? What do you say?" Cheng Yu said curiously.
"Although I don't know what is going on in this palace, I feel that the mechanisms it sets up are not to kill people. On the contrary, they are testing the possibility of intruders." Tianxue said. .
"Why do you say that?" Cheng Yu asked puzzledly.
"These palaces are hidden underground, and there is no living person. I think something important must have happened, causing them to be forced to hide. In order to continue their inheritance, they will definitely find successors Sir, when you asked us to bleed in the sea of flowers, wasn't that the secret you opened in the experimental palace?
Since we can't open it, but you can, it means that you are their chosen successor. If they don't want others to get their inheritance, why would they let others in? Wouldn't it be best to close and open the palace forever? "Tianxue has been very curious since entering the Wanhua Palace. She once thought about many details of Cheng Yu's opening of the palace.
"Tianxue? Is this really you? It seems that I underestimated you!" After listening to Tianxue's words, Cheng Yu couldn't believe that Tianxue had such a careful heart and such a strong mind. Logically, it seems that I underestimated her.
"Hmph! It's good that you know. You are self-aware!" Tianxue saw Cheng Yu's surprised eyes and felt very proud. She had known Cheng Yu for so long and was shocked by everything about Cheng Yu. Now she finally let it go This arrogant guy was shocked and finally regained his face.
"Hehe! Senior brother, is this my real senior sister now?" Tianxing said with a smile.
In fact, before Cheng Yu appeared, Tianxue had always been the leader of their entire team, because Tianxue was a very calm and thoughtful person.
But since meeting Cheng Yu again and being rescued by him, the world seems to have changed. It has become bigger and bigger. Everything is centered on Cheng Yu, and the punishments caused by heaven and earth are inexplicable! Just think of her as a woman in love.
In fact, the idea of Tianxing is not completely unreasonable. Tianxue has been strong and independent since she was a child, but no matter how strong she is, she is just a woman.
Every woman has imagined that the man in her mind is a hero with extraordinary majesty and extraordinary ability, and he is the woman's support. When Tian Xueluo was in danger, Cheng Yu appeared in front of her with a heroic posture.
What's more, Cheng Yu's strength really shocked her. It was precisely because of Cheng Yu's extraordinary strength that Tianxue unconsciously let go of her strength and relied on Cheng Yu, so she did everything Everything is centered on him. As long as she is here, she doesn't have to be so hard to be vigilant about everything. Everything can be left to him.
"Really? So you hid quite well in front of me! I almost let you fool me." Cheng Yu looked at Tian Xue curiously and said.
"No way? That's how people are!" Tianxue suddenly changed from being decisive and capable before, and suddenly became weak and coquettish again.
"..." Cheng Yu's face was filled with dark lines. This woman changed so quickly that he even thought that what just appeared was just an illusion. "As if I didn't say anything, let's get back to the topic! What you just said makes some sense. In this case, I will choose a passage at random. Are you going back to the Mountain and River Map or are you following me outside?"
"I'll follow you outside!" Tianxue said without thinking. In fact, she had already thought of it, but she just couldn't find the opportunity.
In the past, because his level was too low, he was completely a burden to Cheng Yu and could not help him in any way. He worked so hard to cultivate the advanced golden elixir in the hope of being able to fight side by side with Cheng Yu. Now that he had the opportunity, why would he want to miss it.
"I will follow you too! Staying in the mountain map all the time is not an option. If I have not experienced several life-and-death battles, otherwise I still don't know when I will be able to advance to the golden elixir?" Tianxing thought for a while and said. .
Although he has always been the weakest among the three, and he has also broken through to the late stage of foundation building, the gap between him and Cheng Yu and Tian Xue is even greater. He has only improved by a small level, but they have improved by one. If you don't work hard at the big level, you won't be able to do it.
"Okay! Be careful. If the situation goes wrong, be ready to enter the Mountain and River Map at any time." Cheng Yu didn't say much. Tian Xing was right. He couldn't protect them all the time. They always need experience and growth. of.
Cheng Yu looked at it, then chose the middle passage and walked in.
Although the passage is winding, it is very regular and the walls are very flat. It is not full of potholes like those tunnels in the mountains. The blue lamps on both sides of the passage are evenly arranged and extend inward.
