A golden door opened behind the dragon chair, and when you walked into it, you came to a dark tunnel.

This is a tunnel through the mountain, about 500 meters long, the tunnel is empty, Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue walked for a few minutes, and finally there was light in front of the tunnel, which was the exit of the tunnel.

When the two of them left the tunnel, they suddenly became enlightened.

What emerges in front of you is a vast valley surrounded by mountains, like a giant basin.

This valley is the location of the secret dormitory built by Huang Lingtian in that year, here was originally by the mountains and rivers, magnificent, there are dozens of palaces of all sizes, the palace is full of flowers and trees, beautiful and exquisite, like a fairyland on earth.

However, at this time, the palaces, pavilions, towers and other buildings in the valley have been seriously damaged, the ruins are broken, the weeds are standing in the forest, and the field of vision is a mess, and it is already a ruin.

And among the ruins, you can vaguely see a lot of corpses and bones!

Walking through a collapsed hall, Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue saw a long crack in the mountain behind the main hall, the crack was ten meters deep and about five hundred meters long, stretching from their feet to the mountains in the distance.

The crack was very flat, not like the ground breaking naturally, but like the ground had been cleaved by a shockwave-like energy fluctuation.

Along the crack in the valley, Liu Xing looked into the distance, only to see a mountain range hundreds of meters away being broken by the waist, and the originally connected mountain range became a cliff, and the place of the cliff was connected with the cracks on the ground of the valley.

Seeing this, Liu Xing realized that there had been an extremely violent fight in this valley.

Both sides of the fight are peerless masters, and the two fight in the dark, and the mountain collapses and the ground cracks. The palaces within a radius of hundreds of miles were all destroyed, and many people died.

"Why is this palace so messy. The palace has all collapsed?"

Looking around, Hua Yingxue was puzzled. Looking up into the distance, his eyes couldn't help but light up, "Brother Jie, look!"

I saw that at the foot of the mountain, about 800 meters away, there was a fiery red building, and if you looked closely, it was actually a palace!

The palaces in the valley are almost all in ruins, but the red palace seems to be intact.

"Go over and see. ”

Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue flew up and swept towards the red palace. In the blink of an eye, it fell into the open space in front of the palace.

The red palace in front of you is about forty meters high, it is made of red jade, the red light is shining, under the light of the moon, it seems to be a huge flame that burns, in the flame, there is a pair of red wings spread, like a red phoenix in the fire.

The gates of the red palace are also fiery red. Above the gate hangs a plaque of red jade, which is engraved with three large bright red characters - Phoenix Palace!

Hua Yingxue said: "All the palaces here have been destroyed, why can this Phoenix Palace be preserved intact?"

Liu Xing's spiritual sense swept and said, "There is a formation around this Phoenix Palace to guard. ”

"Formation?" Hua Yingxue asked again. "What kind of formation is it?"

Liu Xingdao: "It's a formation used to deceive people. ”

Hua Yingxue wondered: "The formation is still deceiving?"

Liu Xing said: "You can try to see if you can enter this Phoenix Palace." ”

Hua Yingxue looked at the gate of the Phoenix Palace, which seemed to be just an ordinary mahogany door. It should be accessible, she walked over to the mahogany door. He put his little hand on the door and pushed hard.

The mahogany door was locked. Absolutely still.

Hua Yingxue turned her head and asked, "Brother Jie, can I use violence to break the door?"

Liu Xing smiled: "You just try." ”

After receiving a positive reply, Hua Yingxue's beautiful eyes condensed slightly, and she started the "Jade Girl-Heart Sutra", and the internal force continued to gather her palms, and after a while, her palms shot out and hit the mahogany door.

Boom!

After a loud bang, Hua Yingxue's snow-white figure was shocked and flew out and fell back to Liu Xing's side, but the mahogany door of the Phoenix Palace was unscathed.

"Sure enough, it can't be opened!"

Hua Yingxue was puzzled, "It's just a mahogany door, why is it so strong?"

"Because it's not a mahogany door, everything you see is an illusion. Liu Xing explained, "The formation of this Phoenix Palace is laid out according to the third potential of the "General Outline of the Law of Plots", 'true and false potential', in the formation, truth and falsehood will constantly change, truth can be transformed into false, and fake can also be transformed into truth. The door you see may not be a door, but the door you cannot see may be a door. If you can't tell the truth from the fake in the formation, you can't naturally find the real door. ”

Hua Yingxue frowned slightly: "You mean, this mahogany door is fake, and it is not the entrance to the Phoenix Palace at all?"

Liu Xing nodded.

Hua Yingxue asked: "Where is the real door of the Phoenix Palace?"

Liu Xing explained: "The true and false situation is not static, it is in continuous change, so the door of the Phoenix Palace is also constantly changing. Only by first figuring out the law of true and false potentials can we find the real door. ”

After speaking, Liu Xing flew up, swept to the front of the Phoenix Palace, and began to jump up and down, speeding back and forth near the Phoenix Palace, sometimes jumping to the gate of the Phoenix Palace, sometimes falling on the pillars of the Phoenix Palace, and sometimes flying to the top of the Phoenix Palace.

In this way, Liu Xing went up and down the Phoenix Palace, drifting, as if he was capturing something.

What Liu Xing wanted to capture was the door of the Phoenix Palace.

The gate of the Phoenix Palace is equipped with a formation of "true and false potential", and a large number of fake doors have appeared, and the real door is hidden in these fake doors, and it can also be converted into a fake door at any time.

This real door is like a cunning "mouse", constantly running and changing in all corners of the Phoenix Palace to avoid being discovered.

Liu Xing, on the other hand, is like a "cat", he wants to see through all the tricks and changes of the "mouse", and catch the real "mouse" in many illusions.

Because the "rat" is difficult to distinguish between real and fake, it is unpredictable, and it is not easy to catch it. If you are an ordinary person, there is no possibility of success at all.

Fortunately, Liu Xing comprehended the truth and falsehood of the "General Outline of the Law of Plot" from the imperial text, was familiar with the law of this "mouse" trick, knew himself and his opponent, and was able to predict the change route of the "mouse" in advance.

Sou!

After dozens of chases, Liu Xing jumped onto one of the pillars of the palace. On tiptoe, the figure jumps up. The plaque that rushed to the gate of the palace was slapped with his right palm.

Boom!

Suddenly. The plaque was shaken open with a rectangular opening.

"I've finally caught you!"

Liu Xing wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, sat on the plaque, and said, "Yingxue, come up, the door of the Phoenix Palace is in the plaque." ”

"......" Hua Yingxue was a little speechless, this door was hidden too deeply, and she jumped to the plaque at her feet. Glancing into the opening of the plaque, "Do you want to get in from here?"

"Yes, let's go. ”

After speaking, the two of them successively drilled into the opening of the plaque and entered the Phoenix Palace.

Swept down from the sky, Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue found that they had come to the main hall of the Phoenix Palace.

The hall is circular, spacious and bright, and the four walls are all made of red jade, and the walls are carved with dozens of reliefs of fire phoenixes. Presenting the image of "Phoenix Nirvana".

"Ahh

She was looking at the relief on the wall, when Hua Yingxue suddenly screamed because she found a foreign object in the hall.

I saw it all around the hall of the Phoenix Palace. There are hundreds of mausoleums!

These mausoleums are densely packed, and they are arranged in three circles, standing quietly around the hall. Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue were standing right in the center of these mausoleums.

"Don't be afraid, it's just a mausoleum. Liu Xing reassured.

Hua Yingxue calmed down a little: "How come there are hundreds of mausoleums here?"

Between words. Hua Yingxue's eyes had already scanned the tombstone of the mausoleum, and she saw that the tombstones in the third row were written with such words - "Tomb of Concubine Xuerui", "Tomb of Concubine Siyu", "Tomb of Concubine Baihe", "Tomb of Concubine Zimei"......

On the tombstones in the second row. The words are written: "The Tomb of Concubine Meilan", "The Tomb of Concubine Yuyan", "The Tomb of Concubine De Mingyun", "The Tomb of Concubine Shufei Jingyi......

On the tombstones in the first row, there are only two tablets in total, one reads "The Tomb of the Imperial Concubine Qinglian" and the other reads "The Tomb of the Imperial Concubine Fire Phoenix".

Seeing this, Hua Yingxue immediately reacted: "Are these hundreds of mausoleums buried all the concubines of Emperor Ling Tian back then?"

Liu Xing analyzed: "How could the mausoleum of Huang Ling Tian's concubine stand here, who erected it?" Pointing to the first row of tombstones, "As far as I know, Huang Ling Tian only had one noble concubine named Bai He during his lifetime, why are there two noble concubine mausoleums here? ”

In the imperial power system of China, the status of the noble concubine is second only to the queen, and the status is noble, and there are generally records in the annals.

"Could it be that Qinglian and Fire Phoenix are the concubines that Huang Ling Tian secretly canonized?"

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, at this moment, the ghost book hidden in his arms flashed, and a white streamer flew out of the page, floating in the void, it was Nie Xiaoqian.

"Xiaoqian, why did you come out?" asked Liu Xing.

"Engong, I have something to tell you. Nie Xiaoqian looked at the tombstone of the noble concubine Qinglian in front of her, and her eyes showed a strange look.

After a while, I saw Nie Xiaoqian float to the tombstone of the noble concubine Qinglian, knelt down, and kowtowed three times in front of the mausoleum.

Her move surprised both Liu Xing and Hua Yingxue.

After kowtowing, Nie Xiaoqian slowly got up, floated into the air, and said, "Engong, this concubine named Qinglian is my grandmother." ”

"Grandma?" Liu Xing asked, "Xiaoqian, are you also a descendant of the royal family?"

Nie Xiaoqian nodded: "Four years ago, my mother told me on her deathbed that my grandmother's name was Qinglian, and she was a concubine favored by the last emperor of China, Emperor Ling Tian. It's just that the world has too much prejudice against the royal family, and my mother never dared to reveal this identity for the sake of safety, and she didn't tell me the truth until she died. ”

Hua Yingxue asked: "Xiao Qian, didn't Emperor Ling Tian and all his concubines all be executed back then, why did Concubine Qinglian still have descendants?"

Nie Xiaoqian introduced: "Actually, Huang Lingtian didn't die at all. ”

"Huang Lingtian is not dead?"

"Hmm. Nie Xiaoqian said, "More than 100 years ago, after the Reading Alliance invaded the palace, they put Huang Lingtian and all the concubines on death row, ready to be executed. It's just that at that time, there was a concubine named Qinglian in the palace, who was as beautiful as a fairy, and the leader of the death row was thrilled and decided to take Qinglian for himself. He never expected that this concubine named Qinglian was loyal to Huang Ling Tian, and she secretly drugged the leader of the prison cell, obtained the key to the prison, and rescued Huang Ling Tian. Then he escaped from the secret passage of the dungeon. ”

"After Huang Lingtian fled, the Reading Alliance would avoid affecting morale. So he deliberately concealed this news and lied that Huang Lingtian had been executed. ”

"After escaping from the prison. Huang Ling Tian and Qinglian fled to an island, where they reorganized their forces and built an imperial palace in the valley near the island's Tianlong Temple. Because of Qinglian's meritorious rescue, Huang Lingtian was very fond of her and became a concubine. Although Huang Lingtian later accepted hundreds of concubines, there was always only one concubine, Qinglian. ”

"It wasn't until more than thirty years later that Huang Ling set up a second concubine, and she was the Fire Phoenix. The Fire Phoenix is not only outstanding in appearance, but also very intelligent. Huang Lingtian has always wanted to regain imperial power. Once again, he established his empire in Huaxia, and the Fire Phoenix was his most powerful assistant. ”

"At that time, the influence of the Four Great Book Kings in Huaxia Kingdom was increasing day by day, and they became the biggest obstacle to Huang Ling Tian, so Huang Ling Tian always wanted to secretly eradicate the Four Book Kings. ”

Unfortunately, the situation was not satisfactory, and the plan to assassinate the Four Book Kings many times was unsuccessful. ”

"One night more than 40 years ago, a masked man in black suddenly broke into the island. Dive into the royal palace of the valley. This black-clothed masked man has extremely high martial arts skills and has the ability to open mountains and break stones, he killed Huang Lingtian and more than 300 concubines, and Huang Lingtian's dream of imperial power came to naught. ”

"Although more than 300 concubines are dead. But the daughter of the noble concubine Qinglian, the county lord of Qingqing, was lucky to survive. As for why the county lord of Qingqing survived, I don't know, I only know that the county lord of Qingqing is my grandmother. ”

"After the death of Emperor Ling Tian. My grandmother, the county lord of Qingqing, left the island and went incognito. He lived in a mountain village in Tianhai City and gave birth to a daughter that year. That is, my mother. ”

"For the past 40 years, my mother has lived an ordinary life and never mentioned what happened on the island. It wasn't until she became seriously ill that she told me these truths, saying that I was a descendant of the imperial family Emperor Ling Tian, and my grandmother was a concubine. ”

Hearing this, Hua Yingxue was stunned for a while, she couldn't imagine that Huang Lingtian still had such a tortuous experience, let alone that Huang Lingtian still had descendants.

Liu Xing asked: "Xiao Qian, you said that Huang Lingtian and more than 300 concubines were killed by a black-clothed masked man, who is this masked man?"

Nie Xiaoqian shook her head: "I don't know, I heard my mother say that the weapon used by the masked man at that time was a golden scimitar." ”

"Golden scimitar?"

"Hmm. Nie Xiaoqian said, "It is said that the Western Book King Reincarnation Jun's favorite round weapon, he has a collection of many round scimitars, among them, there is a golden scimitar. Therefore, my mother suspected that this masked man who wiped out the royal family might be the reincarnation king...... But ......"

Nie Xiaoqian immediately changed her words and said, "Judging from Engong's words just now, Engong is obviously not a masked person, there must be a misunderstanding here." ”

Until now, Nie Xiaoqian still saw through and thought that Liu Xing was the reincarnation king.

Liu Xing didn't explain much, and asked again: "Who built the mausoleums of these hundreds of concubines in the Phoenix Palace?"

Nie Xiaoqian said: "I don't know about this. ”

Hua Yingxue remembered something and reminded: "Brother Jie, that old nun in Tianlong Temple is the concubine of Huang Lingtian, she has always wanted to assassinate the Reincarnation King, could these mausoleums be erected by her? Also, why have all the palaces in the valley collapsed, but only this Phoenix Palace has been preserved intact?"

Nie Xiaoqian analyzed: "Except for my grandmother Qinglian Guifei, the Fire Phoenix Guifei is Huang Lingtian's favorite concubine, and this Phoenix Palace should be built by Huang Lingtian for the Fire Phoenix." ”

Hua Yingxue said again: "Could it be that the old nun is a fire phoenix, and she also escaped the catastrophe back then? The old nun has been guarding the Tianlong Temple for so many years, what does she want to do? She doesn't want to fulfill Huang Lingtian's last wish and regain imperial power in Huaxia Kingdom, right?"

Liu Xing frowned slightly, and sighed in his heart: The supernatural area seems to be a big pit left by the four great book kings back then, and the palace of Tianlong Temple does not know how many little-known secrets are buried.

The old nun of Tianlong Temple has been waiting here for decades, and I am afraid it is not as simple as trying to seize power. The old nun tried every possible means to win the "General Outline of the Law of Plots", which seemed to be to open the hall of reincarnation.

It's just that what is this reincarnation hall, what is it for, and where is it?

Liu Xing had never heard of it.

Of course, Liu Xing could catch the old nun and ask, but he was afraid of startling the snake.

I still don't know the true identity of the old nun, let alone how much power she still has, so it is not the best strategy to arrest her rashly.

Liu Xing decided to wait and see what happened first, and then wait patiently for a while.

"Engong, there is also a mausoleum here!"

Just thinking about it, at this time, Nie Xiaoqian floated in the center of the hall of the Phoenix Palace, pointed to the ground and said, "There is a huge mausoleum underground. ”

Hearing what she said, Liu Xing's spiritual sense swept away, and sure enough, he felt that there were energy fluctuations in the ground, and there seemed to be a larger mausoleum hidden inside!

"Why is there a mausoleum underground? Could it be the mausoleum of Huang Lingtian?"

The mausoleums of more than 300 concubines are all in the Phoenix Palace, and it is reasonable that Huang Lingtian's mausoleum is hidden here.

In order to find out, Liu Xing decided to dig a grave in the hall of the Phoenix Palace......
