An Zheng was protected by the nine Holy Fish Scale s so that he could survive through the incomparably huge tearing power. However, the continuous sounds of wailing around him, caused An Zheng"s heart to turn cold. He did not expect that so many people would suddenly appear in the surroundings, nor did he expect that they would be taken to such a strange place all of a sudden. Where he couldn"t see, there seemed to be many other unknown dangers waiting for him.
He tried opening the Holy Fish Scale, and it formed a defensive formation around him.
When An Zheng saw the outside world, he was shocked by the terrifying scene before his eyes.
Dead bodies everywhere, limbs broken. What was even weirder was that these corpses were clearly broken, but they were actually placed together according to the original shape of a person. In other words, after the terrifying purple dragon tornado had pa.s.sed, at least several hundred people had been killed. These dead people were all cultivators with decent cultivations, the weakest of them had even reached the peak of the Sumeru Stage. But these people might not even be able to last a second before being torn apart by the purple light tornado.
However, the fragments of the corpse were strangely separated by some sort of force, and then placed back into the shape of a human.
An Zheng carefully walked to the side of one of the corpses and examined it carefully. Only then did he realize that the corpse had at least broken into a few thousand pieces, and each piece wahin, small layer. After that, another layer of sticky substance came back, making him look especially terrifying.
What made An Zheng feel at ease was, after walking around the corpses, he did not see anyone that he was familiar with.
Under the protection of the Holy Fish Scale, An Zheng looked around his surroundings.
It looked like the entrance talace or something. It was a small square, and it wasn"t very big. An Zheng turned around and saw that not far behind him was the entrance of the palace, and there were nine flights of stairs. There were four stone statues placed on both sides of the entrance. They were demonic beasts that could not recognize what they were. But each statue was sitting, and something was stepping under its right front paw. An Zheng maintained the habit of investigating cases, so he paid particular attention to the details. He noticed that the things being stepped on under the stone statues were all different.
The palace was built within a forest, and it was surrounded by huge trees so tall that the top could barely be seen. When An Zheng breathed, he could feel that the vitality of the heaven and earth was exceptionally plentiful, to the point where even breathing was a form of cultivation.
Did everyone die?
An Zheng walked around again, but he did not find Helian Xiaoxin among the corpses.
Could it be that the people who came in alive had been dispersed into different places by some invisible force? Or could it be that the others had already entered the palace?
An Zheng looked at the entrance of the palace, it was very big. The entire entrance seemed to have been carved out of a big piece of stone. On the left side, there was a green lotus carved on the pillar, and on the right side, there was a Purple Ivy sculpted on the pillar.
An Zheng suddenly reacted to something and retreated far away to look again. Only then did he realise that it wasn"alace at all, but an indescribably huge gatehouse. The size of this building was only second to the huge bronze door that An Zheng had seen in his dreams. Since he was far away, he could see the whole picture of the building. On top of the door was a huge stone tablet that looked like it was carved on top of it. However, a sword mark pierced through the plaque and the front part could no longer be seen. The two words at the back could still be distinguished as … Heaven Gate.
Heaven Gate?
Could it be that immortal palaces really exist in this world? This was the entrance to the immortal palace?
At this point in time, he had no other choice but to enter and take a look. The reason why Helian Xiaoxin opened the door was so obvious, so he was sure that the only way to get out was to find Helian Xiaoxin. No matter if Helian Xiaoxin was sent to another place, or if he had already entered, he could only continue forward.
An Zheng took a deep breath, narrowed the area around the Holy Fish Scale a bit, and then entered the enormous door building. The door was long, and the smell of dry dust was strong, as if no one had been inside for a long time. An Zheng discovered that the walls on both sides of the door were filled with the marks of various weapons, the stones were riddled with holes. There had been a fierce battle in the corridor of this building. Who knew how many people had died there?
The sword marks on the stone gate could still be seen. Perhaps those corpses had already turned into dust.
The dust beneath his feet was very thick, and stepping on it felt like stepping on a thick layer of fallen leaves. But An Zheng could not help but think, could it be that the dust under his feet was actually jusile of bones?
The door was at least tens of meters long. An Zheng carefully walked to the end of the door, and discovered a long and wide road behind the door... Used to be.
But now, this road was seriously damaged. The road must have been broken off after being struck by some powerful force. The scary part was that the road was hanging in the air. Therefore, this place should have once been a long bridge with no end in sight. The bridge was broken, but it was still floating in the air, almost maintaining its original appearance. However, because the damage was too severe, if An Zheng wanted to go over, he had to step over those stones that could fall down at any time.
Beneath the bridge was nothingness, and no one knew what would happen if they fell.
The entire long bridge was made of white jade, and the white jade railings on both sides of the bridge were fairly well preserved. The cracks on the surface of the bridge were large and small. Some were dozens of meters long, while others could be traversed with a single step. An Zheng did not dare to be careless, and kept his guard up, walking along the white jade railings.
After walking for nearly an hour, the bridge came to an end. The surroundings of the bridge was shrouded in white clouds, but An Zheng could feel that it was not real white clouds at all, but some sort of floating object sealed in this place. However, if one were to look up from the ground, they would definitely not doubt the authenticity of the white cloud. An Zheng was able to touch the closest cloud beside him with his hand. However, due to safety considerations, he still withdrew his curiosity.
At the end of the long bridge, there were three paths.
The road that led directly to the long bridge was the widest and straightest. There was also a slightly narrower one on the left and right sides of the road. Just like the stone inscriptions he had seen on the pillars of the gate tower, there were palace lamps on both sides of the road on the left, while carved on the pillars of the palace lamps were green lotuses. There was alsath on the right, and carved on the pillar of the palace was Purple Ivy.
In the middle was the widest path, and on both sides of the palace lanterns was a sword.
An Zheng was a little hesitant, he didn"t know how to choose.
Right at this moment, he vaguely heard the sounds of killing coming from the widest path in front of him. An Zheng could only choose to move forward, because he had to find Helian Xiaoxin. Following the shouts from the front, An Zheng quickly went over. The sound was getting louder and louder, but the fog was getting thicker and thicker. The shouts and shouts sounded loud and clear, but nothing could be seen clearly.
"A maze?"
An Zheng suddenly realized that this fog was not real fog, buype of array. It must be that the person in front had accidentally triggered some sort of mechanism, trapping everyone inside. Moreover, no one knew what kind of killing move was contained within this magic array. No one knew what kind of battle was taking place between them.
Right at this moment, An Zheng"s sharp senses detected a slight ripple from the fog at the side of his body. He immediately retreated backwards, and then he saw a very long magic tool swiftly piercing through the fog.
"I"ll kill you demons and ghosts!"
Someone shouted out and then rushed over while wildly waving that long magic tool.
"Fatty?"
An Zheng called out in a daze, "You … Why the f.u.c.k are you here? "
After seeing An Zheng, he was stunned for a good while, and then, he threw the Triton in his hands away and rushed over with a bear hug, "Hahahaha, fat grandpa told me that you weren"t going to die yet, hahahaha, I finally found you."
An Zheng was so angry that he could not breathe. After Du Shoushou calmed down from his excitement, he asked: "Are you dreaming? How did you get in? "
Du Shoushou and I were worried about you, so we went out of Peac.o.c.k City, but we didn"t know what was going on when we were swept up by a strange tornado. If not for the fact that Chen Shaobai had a powerful magic tool on him, the two of us would have been killed in the tornado. After that, we mysteriously arrived at this unfathomable place. He and I were in a hurry to find you, but we didn"t know how we ended up here. Suddenly, a huge fog appeared and we couldn"t see anything. Then, someone suddenly attacked us. "
He looked around: "I don"t know where Chen Shaobai went."
An Zheng said: "You don"t have to worry about him. He has more magical equipment on him than I do."
Du Shoushou acknowledged: "That guy is really mysterious, I don"t know where he comes from. However, my stone armor was unable to withstand the tornado. If it wasn"t for him grabbing onto me, I might have died already. "
An Zheng expanded the range of the Holy Fish Scale"s defense and protected both him and Du Shoushou. The nine Holy Fish Scalotated and flew around the two of them like a st.u.r.dy wall.
"Let"s continue walking. If we can"t find Helian Xiaoxin, we might not be able to get out."
"So it"s that grandson"s doing."
"What attacked you?"
"I wonder who they are, they"re all pretty strong."
The two of them talked while carefully walking forward. After walking for a few minutes, An Zheng stopped again: "Something"s not right … We"re just going around in circles. "
"How do you know?"
An Zheng lowered his head and pointed to the area under his feet: "I was standing here just now, and there"s a sword mark on the ground."
Du Shoushou scolded: "What the f * ck is this place!"
Just as he cursed, a hurricane suddenly appeared in the sky. Above the thick fog, there seemed to be the vague outline of a gigantic beast. An Zheng pulled Du Shoushou, and saw that there waock not far away. The two of them hid behind the rock, and looked out through the crack above their heads.
After the hurricane, the fog was blown away. The one floating in the sky was not a ferocious beast, but a gigantic battleship that looked to be at leasundred meters long!
On the battleship, a warrior wearing an armor was standing there majestically. The reason for the hurricane was due to the paddles on both sides of the battleship. The battleship flew slowly over everyone"s heads. The terrifying aura emitted by the battleship caused everyone to feel a wave of fear. On the side of the battleship, there wauge word: "Ning" carved into it.
"Great Xixi Ning Family."
An Zheng said softly.
Du Shoushou lowered his voice and asked, "The Ning Family? "What kind of background?"
"If the Helian Family is considered to be a Wealthy Cla.s.s, then the Ning Family is a genuine Wealthy Cla.s.s. Compared to the Ning Family, the difference between Helian Family and the Helian Family is like that between an ant and an elephant. "
An Zheng raised his head and looked at the battleship, his eyes filled with confusion.
"What the h.e.l.l is this place? Why is the Ning Family"s prehistoric battleship activated?"
The most ordinary soldier on the warship also had the cultivation of Captive Stage.
Two rows of huge oars were paddling, and the battleship flew through the air. With the fog dispersed, everyone discovered that there weren"t any traps within the fog. Rather, the people that were swept into the fog were killing each other. There was a corpse on the ground, badly mutilated.
