Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Palace Secret Room
In the afternoon, nothing else happened, and several people continued to cultivate, and it was not until dinner time that everyone finished their cultivation one after another.
There is no forest near the Imperial City, although there are also captive spirit beasts, but Guan Ying can't touch them, so she can't cultivate spiritual power.
But this doesn't mean that she can't improve herself, her spiritual power has improved too quickly during this time, and she doesn't have a long time to stabilize herself, so this is not a bad thing.
Although she is the incarnation of Bi Ling Guo, like humans, her body's endurance is also limited, so she must also adopt the same cultivation process as humans.
While improving spiritual power through cultivation, strengthening one's physical body through spiritual power is generally a process that can be completed by itself in cultivation, but Guan Ying can't.
Because Guan Ying's spiritual power is different from that of ordinary humans, it is easy to cause an imbalance between the level of spiritual power and the strength of the physical body, causing the body to be unable to withstand the spiritual power it has.
In this case, it will cause damage to the body, especially the meridians where the spiritual power operates, but to be honest, this level of damage is not a big problem for Guan Ying.
She can reshape Guo Chen's meridians, and of course her own meridians can be reshaped if they are injured, but that will cause her a huge drain, and she can't use them under normal circumstances.
Therefore, Guan Ying decided to stop the cultivation of spiritual power for the time being, and concentrate on using spiritual power to improve the bearing capacity of the physical body, so as to avoid physical damage to the greatest extent.
"Shall we go to the Imperial City tonight?"
During the meal, Ling Yunhao asked Guo Chen this question, after all, they didn't know if there were any Nightmare clansmen other than Jiang Xueyan in the Imperial City now, so they naturally wanted to look for it again.
"Let's forget it tonight, we have just arrived in the Imperial City, first, we are not familiar with the terrain here, and secondly, there is no guarantee that the Imperial Family has not sent someone to spy on us. ”
He shook his head, and then took out the compass from the scroll realm, if he wanted to know how many inheritors there were in the imperial city now, he still had to start from this compass.
The Nightmare Clan should have seven inheritors, and now they can be sure that there are three, and there is suspected that there is one, which means that there are still three or four Nightmare Clansmen who have not been found.
However, according to what Ling Xu said, he should not belong to the inheritor of their generation, so there should be another Ocean Blue Nightmare Pupil.
Let's just put it this way, in fact, there are only two members of the Nightmare clan who have been identified now, Guo Chen and Ling Yunhao, and there are five clansmen waiting for them to find them, and now they have only found one suspicious.
Although according to the current point of view, Jiang Xueyan should be one of the inheritors, but this is not certain, and she must wait until she becomes an adult to be able to see whether she is or not.
And there is another very important problem, that is, they did not find Jiang Xueyan's inheritance, so even if she is an adult, there is no way to be sure.
Now they only know one way to determine their identity, and that is the magic pupil on the inheritance, and on the day she becomes an adult, if the magic pupil appears, then there is no need to doubt it.
Now he is trying to find a way to check the location of the inheritance object, if Jiang Xueyan is really a member of the Nightmare Clan, then according to the instructions of the compass, the inheritance thing that belongs to her should be in the north.
As for the exact location, I don't know, the compass can only show them the direction, but there is no way to tell them the specific location.
"If Xue Yan is really our clan, we need to find her inheritance as soon as possible, and the compass's instructions are in that direction. ”
He pointed in the direction of due north and west, seeing the direction he pointed, Ling Yunhao and Guan Ying's expressions became a little weird, but Shen Xuan, who had been cultivating, was not affected in any way.
After being silent for a while, Ling Yunhao spoke: "I remember that direction......"
He nodded, and then slowly spat out two words, which were also the places where he thought there might be a legacy.
"The Royal Palace. ”
This also makes sense, on the way to the Imperial City, he also said that it is possible that the people of the Royal Family killed the people of the Nightmare Clan in the secret realm of Lindao and took away the inheritance.
And now that the compass points to the palace, it's hard not to doubt it, but if it's true, it definitely can't be said to be a good thing.
Nonsense, go directly to the palace to get something, who is so bold, now Ning Yuan is in the palace, and he wants to take the inheritance in front of him, is it possible?
Not to mention a few of them, even if Ling Xu came together, there would only be a dead end, Ning Yuan was a rare Heaven Rank master on the continent!
Then there was silence in the room, this was no longer a problem that could be solved by intelligence, unless a big war broke out, Ning Yuan would definitely not leave the palace.
As long as Ning Yuan didn't leave the palace, or even stayed in the imperial city, they would have no possibility of coming up with the inheritance, and the gap in strength was too big.
Then Jiang Xueyan, who had just returned to the palace, suddenly heard Guo Chen's voice in her ears and said, "Do you know that there is a place in the imperial city where things about the Nightmare Clan are stored?"
Regardless of whether there is hope or not, they have to work hard, after all, it was a hundred years ago, and if the royal family doesn't know where that thing is now, then they have a glimmer of hope.
It's just that this possibility is basically non-existent, after all, they are all things of the royal family, and it stands to reason that the direct descendants of these royal families should know.
"I've asked since I came back last time, and there is indeed a secret room in the palace that was built a hundred years ago, but we don't know where it is until now, and it may have something to do with the Nightmare Clan. ”
Then he got such a response, and jumped up from his seat excitedly, good guy, this is definitely a good result.
If it was really as Jiang Xueyan said, the royal family didn't know where this secret room was, and they helped the royal family find it, they would definitely be the first to enter.
When the time comes, not only will it be able to bring out the inheritance of the Nightmare Clan, but it will also be possible to be rewarded by the Imperial Family, is there a better outcome than this?
"Well, if you can, you'd better find a chance to come by yourself tomorrow, don't let your brother or Ning Zhi follow. ”
After passing on this news, without waiting for Jiang Xueyan to answer, and without waiting for Ling Yunhao and Guan Ying to ask, he went back to cultivate, and at the same time began to think about what to do next.
Anyway, they must go to the secret room of the palace, and even if there is no inheritance of the Nightmare Clan in it, they need to see it with their own eyes to confirm it.
Ling Yunhao and Guan Ying didn't bother him, they continued to eat, and after eating and cleaning up briefly, they also began to continue cultivating, it was estimated that this was their last comfortable time in the imperial city.
Now Ling Yunhao is not far from breaking through to the ground level, he should cultivate safely and steadily now, but reality does not allow it, he can only slowly improve his strength in the self-body cycle.
Of course, this hard-won cultivation time must be cherished, as for Guan Ying, she simply has nothing else to do, because she has plenty of time.
Jiang Xueyan got Guo Chen's instructions, and immediately thought of the inheritance he had said before, and began to find a way to investigate the information about the palace secret room.
Can you not be careful, in her opinion, it is her own inheritance, and for her own things, of course, she has to do everything she can to get it.
So one night, she kept her eyes closed, and kept searching for information about the palace vaults, and finally she found something useful.
It was found in the library of the Imperial Palace, and the books here were more comprehensive than those of the Nine Star Academy, and there were many things that only direct members of the royal family could see.
Jiang Xueyan is a direct member of the royal family, she can check everything here, and it took her one night to find the architectural design of the original palace.
Just as she was about to look at the blueprint, she suddenly heard someone enter the library, hurriedly hid the blueprint in a book, and then saw Gangneung coming in.
Jiang Ling was also a little surprised to see her, and asked with some surprise: "Are you still here, and you haven't been back all night?"
Seeing that it was Jiangling, Jiang Xueyan immediately became nervous, but still asked tentatively: "Brother, do you know anything about the secret room of the palace?"
Jiang Ling looked at Jiang Xueyan with a puzzled expression, and said, "What are you asking for, I don't know more than you, have you found any clues?"
The two asked each other, Jiang Ling, of course, was puzzled, for so many years, Jiang Xueyan had never mentioned anything about the palace secret room, and when she suddenly mentioned it, did she find something?
It would be great if this was the case, the royal family had searched for a secret room that had not been found for nearly a hundred years, and if they really found it, there would definitely be a lot of benefits.
"I happened to see the architectural plan of the palace just now, and I suddenly remembered to ask. ”
As she spoke, she took out the design plan she had hidden just now and handed it to Jiang Ling, if Jiang Ling saw any clues, she could directly tell Guo Chen the result.
If he didn't see anything wrong, then she could take the opportunity to show it to Guo Chen, no matter what the result was, there would be no loss.
Jiang Ling took the design drawing, put it aside without looking at it, and said, "I've seen this before, it's not useful, so what did you do all night?"
Seeing the messy library with books piled up everywhere, Jiang Ling asked this question, she really didn't look like she was here to read a book, but like she was here to demolish the house.
"It's nothing, I can't sleep, so I want to come and find something to see, but I didn't find what I want to see, by the way, maybe Guo Chen can think of something, do you want to show him this?"
She picked up the blueprint on the side, asked the question, and then somehow, the blueprint in her hand was in Gangneung's hand.
"Then I'll show him it, you'd better go back and rest for a while. ”
Then, when she heard such a sentence, Jiang Ling left the library with the blueprints, without giving her time to refuse.
She could only send a message to Guo Chen, telling him that Jiang Ling had gone to find him, asking him to get ready, and then began to continue to look for clues about the secret room in the library.
On the other side, after getting the news from Jiang Xueyan, Guo Chen woke up a few people who were cultivating as soon as possible, and then began to wait for Jiang Ling to come over with the blueprints.
Ling Yunhao was idle, so he went to make breakfast, Guan Ying went to give him a hand, as for Shen Xuan, who had nothing to do and didn't know anything about cooking, he could only sit down.
Guo Chen has already started brainstorming now, every time he sees Jiangling, it is when he is the most tired, and he now hopes more and more that Jiangling can be a member of the Nightmare Clan.
Thinking of this, he suddenly took out the compass from the scroll realm, handed it to Shen Xuan, and said, "You take this, and see if Jiangling is our clansman later." ”
