C168 The Underground Palace

Like a frozen ice sculpture, Duanmu Kuang couldn't move or make a sound. Enveloped by the red light emitted by the Bloodthirsty Heavenly Bead, he was like a cocoon as he rapidly descended.

This abyss could be called extremely evil by Lyi Hentian. Naturally, it wasn't as simple as being unfathomable. The deeper he went, the more chilly the wind became. Moreover, it was accompanied by a low and deep roar that made one's heart palpitate.

However, Duanmu Kuang knew nothing about all of this, because at this moment, he couldn't even use his Divine Sense. He had no idea what kind of place he had been fooled by Lyi Hentian.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the sound of the wind finally stopped. After such a long time of descent, they had finally reached the underground.

"Aiyo... I'm so tired, you damn old man!" As soon as they reached the ground, the red light emitted by the Bloodthirsty Heavenly Bead loosened, and Duanmu Kuang sat down on the ground. He was really exhausted.

He descended at an extremely fast speed. Although he was protected by the Bloodthirsty Heavenly Bead, his body was still able to withstand the heavy pressure in the space. Right now, his entire body was numb, and his bones felt as if they were going to fall apart. Moreover, his clothes were in a mess, and his hair was in a mess. He looked extremely pathetic.

Obviously, Lyi Hentian did it on purpose. Duanmu Kuang was very dissatisfied with the old man's action, and he was muttering to himself.

"Ah..." A scream suddenly sounded. It sounded like it would echo across the entire bottom of the abyss and spread far and wide.

The owner of the voice was naturally Duanmu Kuang. Just now, his hand accidentally touched a hard object. When he took it in front of him and saw it was a skull, he was shocked.

The bottom of the abyss was dark, and visibility was no more than a hundred meters. One could see countless bones scattered everywhere. Some of them were humans, and some were Profound Beast. They were scattered all over the place.

"What the hell is this place?" He could not help but mutter, feeling anxious and anxious.

As far as his eyes could see, it was gray in the distance, and there were countless corpses nearby. He could feel the exceptionally cold Yin wind, and hear the low and strange howls. Duanmu Kuang's heart was pounding. Even though he was usually extremely daring, at this moment, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

This place was too strange. There was no trace of life here. He believed that anyone who was in such an environment would feel fear.

"What are you screaming about, kid? There are still a few hours until dawn. Hurry up and get up, help this lord search for treasures." Lyi Hentian floated over and gave him a sideway glance as he scolded.

The old man was very lazy. At least, this was what Duanmu Kuang thought in his heart. As soon as Lyi Hentian finished speaking, he immediately returned to the Bloodthirsty Heavenly Bead, leaving behind only one sentence.

"I will return to the bead first. The task of finding treasures will be left to you. Remember to keep walking forward. The treasure is in that direction."

"Oh." Duanmu Kuang reluctantly replied. Then, he got up from the ground and started walking forward.

There was a lot of grey fog under the abyss. It looked like the surroundings were all grey, and one could not see very far with the naked eye.

"Old man, don't just sleep in the bead. Aren't you very powerful with your Divine Sense? Help look around." He reminded Lyi Hentian that he couldn't see his surroundings clearly. He told the old man not to be lazy and to pay attention.

"I'm here. Don't worry, kid. I'll help you if anything happens." After Li Hen said this, he fell silent again and fell silent.

Duanmu Kuang was helpless. He narrowed his eyes and looked around. He walked carefully, not daring to take big strides like he usually did.

He mewed and took small steps forward. His entire body was in a state where he could attack at any time.

This place was not simple. Not only was it dark and terrifying, the low growls from afar were especially terrifying.

In this kind of place, no one could calmly look at it. In the depths of the haze, it was as if there were countless demons lurking. Together with the miserable growls, it made people have to be careful.

Although he had Lyi Hentian's assurance, he still wasn't at ease. He cautiously looked at it while walking at a very slow speed.

"Eh..." After an unknown period of time, Duanmu Kuang didn't know how far he had gone before he finally arrived at a strange place.

This place wasn't covered by a gray haze. It wasn't like the other places at the bottom of the abyss, where it was dark and gloomy. On the contrary, this region was filled with light. Even though it was night, it was exceptionally bright.

Even from far away, one could see an enormous building sitting there, grand and magnificent.

"This... this is an underground palace."

As they walked closer, they could feel the magnificence and magnificence of this building. It covered several dozen kilometers. Duanmu Kuang looked closely and found that this huge building was similar to a castle. It was just an entrance. It was like a door, and the real main building was underground.

Without a doubt, this was an unimaginably large underground palace. At its entrance, that castle seemed like a towering peak. It was so solemn, lofty, and had a type of unmatched atmosphere.

Just the entrance alone was already this large, so the size of the underground palace could be imagined. Even if it was hundreds or thousands of li, it wouldn't be strange. Moreover, it was hidden underground, not visible to anyone.

Duanmu Kuang's expression became serious. Was this underground palace the place he was looking for? Was the treasure hidden within? Also, could it be that the so-called evil thing that Lyi Hentian spoke of was also suppressed here?

"Old man, quickly come out and take a look. Have we arrived?" He had too many doubts in his heart and could no longer remain calm as he shouted at Lyi Hentian.

This was a flat land under the abyss. It was empty everywhere. Only an underground palace was built here, it was all alone. It was unknown how many years had passed, but it was still intact, from the majestic entrance that revealed the ground, one could see that it was unordinary, making one feel great admiration.

Only, it wasn't that simple to enter the underground palace, to the extent where it was impossible to get too close. Because, the underground palace was surrounded by countless formations, surrounding the entrance of the castle.

This place was bright because of the formations. All of the formations were operating, emitting a blazing light that illuminated this area.

"Mm, it's here, the treasure is in the depths of the underground palace." Lyi Hentian came out and stared at the entrance of the underground palace. His expression became serious for the first time.

The formation here wasn't simple. It was surrounded by the castle, and it was filled with boundless killing intent. Even he felt that it was a little troublesome to deal with it.

He could see that endless Heaven and Earth Vital Energy was being absorbed from afar. It was like a tornado spinning. It continuously entered the formation and was absorbed by the formation, turning into the energy to operate the formation. The scene was very spectacular.

Originally, Duanmu Kuang was still puzzled by the unusual condition of the Returning Sun Mountain Range. He didn't understand why such a beautiful place would lack Heaven and Earth Vital Energy. But after seeing this, he understood everything. It was all the fault of the formation.
