Chapter 419

The door to the labyrinthine dungeon was opened without incident, however...... Bai Yutang said that the door was opened from the inside, not that he picked the lock, so he ...... Everyone glanced at each other, and inexplicably felt a yin wind blowing out of the crack in the door.

At this time, it should be close to noon, but the sky in the sea of ghosts is dark.

"Why is it dark so early in the sea of ghosts?" Lin Yehuo felt that the weather was a little weird.

Zou Yue said, "There is a difference between the inside and outside of the ghost sea, it gets dark early, but it lights up late, and there is more time at night." Moreover, there is no moon during the day when it is dark, and this is the time when the activity of sand ghosts is most rampant. ”

"Are sand ghosts afraid of fire?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Zou Yue nodded, "I'm afraid of fire and light, I rarely appear during the day, and I will hide in the sand immediately when I come out." ”

After a while, the sand near the stone gate was emptied, and Bai Yutang opened the stone gate...... Inside the door, the black hole has a passage that leads to the underground. The bottom is dark, and the situation is unknown.

took out a piece of black jade flying locust stone and threw it into the cave...... I heard "grunt...... After a few sounds of stones hitting the wall...... But I didn't hear the sound of the final landing, and I didn't hear the sound of falling into the water.

The crowd looked at each other.

Zhan Zhao frowned, "Otherwise, it's all sand down there, and it's falling into the sand, or it's bottomless, so deep that you can't hear the echo, or ......"

Everyone had a thought in their hearts at the same timeβ€”someone, and reached out to catch the stone.

"If there are really people inside, they don't seem to object to us going in." Yin Hou smiled, "It seems to be quite welcome." ”

"There may be a trap down there." Zou Yue frowned.

By this time it was getting dark.

"Isn't it nice to have someone, go in and see." Tianzun said and drilled into the door, Bai Yutang's eyes quickly grabbed him, glaring at him.

Tianzun squinted at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang motioned for Tianzun to follow him, and he took out the fire fold and blew it up, and entered the entrance first.

Down the entrance was a slope that was not too steep, Bai Yutang walked in, and Zhan Zhao followed in.

Tianzun also followed.

Before Zou Liang entered, he turned back to Zou Yue who was going to follow him and said, "Dad, you and Yiyi are waiting outside." ”

Zou Yue was stunned for a moment, not that he would refute two sentences if he was not allowed to enter, but Zou Liang said "Dad", which stunned him, and he didn't know how to react for a while.

Lin Yehuo also instructed Lin Yueyi to stay outside, motioning for them to respond with the remaining sand demons and Song Jun, and looked at the door.

Yin Hou walked in the last one, glanced at the looming patterns on the walls on both sides of the tunnel, Yin Hou frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, and continued to walk down with everyone.

Bai Yutang likes architecture, has a certain understanding of underground palaces and the like, plus he has a lot of research on mechanisms, and after observing all the way, it is also surprising - this inclined walkway does not have any mechanisms, but there are different patterns on both sides. The pattern looks like vines wrapped together, and it seems to be some kind of text, and there is a hint of regularity in the mess.

Zhan Zhao and the others regretted it a little, it would be good to bring Gongsun in, maybe he knew these words......

Walked another way.

There were still no mechanisms in the hallway, and there were no people, only the footsteps of a few of them, and ...... A hint of clammy cold.

"There seems to be a source of water down there." Bai Yutang said.

Lin Yehuo asked Yin Hou behind him, "Old man, did you hear a human voice?" ”

Everyone also looked at Yin Hou and Tianzun.

Both shook their heads.

It was very quiet here, and it was easy to listen to the sound, but in the vicinity or even farther away, there was absolutely no one who could not hear it wrong with Yin Hou and Tianzun's internal strength.

So, Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang curiously, "Are you sure you didn't pry the door open?" ”

Bai Yutang nodded definitively.

Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "Then what is the ability of the person who opened the door?" The corridor was so long, how did he open the door and run away without a sound?

At this moment, a bend suddenly appeared in front of the passage that had been straight.

Bai Yutang took advantage of the trend and stepped back suddenly...... At the same time, Zhan Zhao, who turned around together, was quick-eyed, grabbed Bai Yutang and kicked back by the way.

Tianzun was following, and when he saw Zhan Zhao turning around, he kicked and hurriedly dodged, and everyone behind him hurriedly stopped and looked again...... I saw Bai Yutang grasping the wall with one hand and standing on the edge of a broken wall with two feet......

It turned out that after this turn, there was no road ahead, and a large abyss appeared below, so it was not dangerous.

Zhan Zhao glanced down, and couldn't help but stick out his tongue, this broken wall was so high that it was almost impossible to see the bottom below, no wonder the Moyu Flying Locust Stone thrown down by Bai Yutang couldn't hear the echo, it turned out to have fallen.

Although this place is dangerous, it does not seem to be a trap, because there is no passage in the distance or ahead, but a huge dark space, and I don't know how big the road is.

I looked around and saw that there were steps against the wall, which stretched down to the bottom.

However, the steps are extremely narrow, built against the wall, and can only accommodate one person, and there is no railing outside, and it is very steep.

Stairs follow the wall and go down to the ground.

"This underground palace is built like this, isn't there a storage room or a storage room down there?" Tianzun was curious, "Or what kind of animal is it used to raise?" ”

"Animals?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Tianzun nodded, "Raise some big bugs or something." ”

As soon as Tianzun finished speaking, Bai Yutang, who was about to go down the steps, stopped and looked back at his master speechlessly.

Tianzun laughed evilly.

Zhan Zhao jumped lightly and came to the front, which meant - he went first, he was not afraid of insects.

The crowd stopped laughing, lined up, and walked down the steps.

Yin Hou was still walking behind the very back, others were looking down at the road, but Yin Hou was looking up at the top of his head. There was no light at all in this underground palace, only the fire folds and lantern Gu in everyone's hands, there was a dim light, and nothing could be seen above their heads.

However, Yin Hou didn't know what Lu Dao was looking at, he just looked up and watched, quite focused.

"Old man." Lin Yehuo poked the Tianzun who was bouncing up the steps in front of him this time, "Is there anyone here?" ”

Tianzun blinked and shook his head, "The words of the human ...... Doesn't seem to be. ”

Tianzun's answer caused everyone to wonder - what kind of answer is this?

The word of the man...... Should there be?

Is there anything that isn't human?

At this moment, a gust of wind suddenly passed.

Everyone subconsciously stopped, and at the same time looked in the direction above their heads.

After a long time...... "whew", something swept by.

This time, everyone found out.

"What's that?" Zhanzhao frowned, there seemed to be a shadow in the darkness, and it was not small according to the feeling of the wind...... But there was no sound.

"Is there something?" Zou Liang frowned and asked uncertainly.

"It seems to be there, but I don't feel the breath......" Bai Yutang looked back at Tianzun.

Tianzun tilted his face on tiptoe, looked up, his expression was quite curious, and he glanced back at Yin Hou.

Yin Hou glanced at him, both of them raised their eyebrows, and continued to look, as if they knew what to say.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and Lin Yehuo and Zou Liang were also a little confused - but neither of the two old men said that they were in danger, so it probably wasn't a problem, right? Could it be the wind leaking in from somewhere, or the shadows of the trees?

After waiting a little longer, the movement was gone, and it was still pitch black above.

Zou Liang took out a lighting arrow and looked at everyone, what does that mean-should you throw it up to see it clearly?

"Wait a minute......" Zhanzhao stretched out his hand to stop Zou Liang, "This underground palace has not seen the light of day for a long time, don't act rashly first, we are still in mid-air, and if we want to throw it, we will wait until the bottom." ”

Zou Liang nodded, feeling that it made sense.

So, the crowd quickened their pace and went down.

Don't look at the danger of this underground palace, but the stone steps are quite hard, but this circle goes down in a circle, and everyone doesn't know how long they have walked on the road, and they are a little hairy in their hearts after they go to the most, where is this going? Eighteen Layers of Hell?

"Why is it so deep?" Zhan Zhao stretched out his hand and pinched Bai Yutang.

"Hiss......" Bai Yutang rubbed his arm and looked at Zhanzhao.

Zhanzhao asked him, "Does it hurt?" ”

Bai Yutang looked at Zhanzhao speechlessly.

"That's not an illusion...... How can it be bottomless? As soon as Zhanzhao's words fell, everyone heard a "snap".

The voice was not far away, and ...... below It seems to be the surface of the water, a piece of gravel that they just kicked and fell into the water?

Zhan Zhao took out a few lantern Gu from his waist bag and threw them into the distance before leaving......

As the faint lights turned on, everyone realized that they had almost reached the end. Below is a large circle of flat land, with a waterhole in the middle.

As the lantern Gu flew towards the center of the pool, everyone couldn't help but open their mouths wide......

In the middle of the waterhole, there was a huge tree.

"What kind of tree is this?" In the darkness of the night, the tree was surprisingly large and had many branches, and it should be alive.

"Below is the underground water source of the Ghost Sea." Zhan Zhao said, "Didn't Uncle Zou mention that there are many natural springs in the Ghost Sea, and the groundwater is very clear? ”

Everyone nodded.

"How tall is this tree?" Lin Yehuo felt wonderful.

Bai Yutang looked at Zou Liang.

Zou Liang took out the illuminated arrow and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Bai Yutang nodded.

Then, Zou Liang pulled out the rattling arrow and raised his hand to throw it upward......

With the sound of arrows breaking through the air...... Everyone looked up at the light in the air.

After a "pop", the arrow exploded.

The arrows used for lighting were quite bright and dazzling, but the moment the arrows exploded, the whole tree was filled with the sound of "squeaking" birds.

"Wow......" Zhan Zhao and the others subconsciously lowered their heads, and above their heads, a large number of frightened birds fluttered their wings and flew away, and the entire space was full of birds and animals with wings that didn't know what to do, flying straight into the air.

Tianzun was quick, grabbed one, took it and looked at it, and saw that it was a lizard with wings and the size of chopsticks.

"Huh?" Tianzun tilted his head and looked at the lizard, Bai Yutang took a breath, "Throw it away!" ”

Tianzun squinted at Bai Yutang and grabbed the lizard in his hand, "Why throw it away?" Pretty cute. ”

Bai Yutang looked at the milky white lizard with disgust.

Zhan Zhao also asked, "Won't it be poisonous?" ”

"It's just a flying lizard, it's not poisonous." Waiting to speak.

Zhan Zhao looked back at Yin Hou.

"Lizards?" Bai Yutang frowned, he had never seen or heard of such a thing.

"Yin Hou knows this kind of thing?" Lin Yehuo was curious.

"With that tree, there will naturally be flying lizards, not only flying lizards, but also bats, water birds, and the like roosting on the trees." Yin Hou answered.

When they heard what Yin Hou said, they remembered the tree again.

At this time, the flock of birds flew into the air, and then looked...... I saw that the tree was so tall that it was impossible to even see the canopy, and the huge space of the entire hall was occupied by this tree.

"Awesome!" Lin Yehuo couldn't help but sigh.

"What kind of tree is this?" Bai Yutang asked Tianzun and Yin Hou, obviously, there was no shock on the faces of the second elder, maybe they had seen it? Or have heard of it.

"I just heard about it from the Demon King." Yin Hou smiled, "I haven't seen it." ”

Tianzun also nodded, and then smiled slightly, "If what the Demon King said is true...... There should be something else here besides the tree. ”

"What's that? Birds? Zhan Zhao looked up and said, suddenly ......

"What's that?" Zhan Zhao saw a huge shadow cut through the sky...... It looks like a bird, but it's too far from the top, so how big should it be?

Yin Hou and Tianzun glanced at each other, and a trace of excitement flashed in their eyes.

It's just that everyone was looking at the tree and the birds flapping their wings on the top of the tree, and they didn't pay attention to the expressions of the two.

"Is that an egret?" Bai Yutang pointed to a few white birds that were flapping their wings and asked.

"It seems to be...... Hakutsuru, right? Zhan Zhao also felt strange.

"Except for the lizards, the birds are all white...... The tree was also off-white. Zhan Zhao touched his chin, "Although the color is white, these birds are all species that can be seen outside." ”

"What kind of tree is this?" Bai Yutang was puzzled.

"The Dragonscale Tree." Yin Hou answered.

"Dragon scales?" Zhan Zhao heard it for the first time.

"The bark of this tree is about the size of a dragon's scales, and it is extremely hard." Yin Hou crossed his arms and recalled, "And...... The legendary tree, castle, tree, palace, is this kind of dragon scale tree! This tree was originally a specialty of the Icefish Palace, and this one was planted here somehow. The dragon scale tree grows very slowly, and it grows every year, and this tree should be more than 100 zhang, it seems that it was planted more than 100 years ago. ”

"That's how old?" Lin Yehuo was puzzled, "There is no sun shining here, how can it grow so big?" ”

"Who said there was no sun." Tianzun suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the air.

Everyone looked in the direction of Tianzun's finger, and then frowned.

"Moon!" Zhan Zhao was surprised.

At this time, everyone saw the moon and stars appear in the sky, and the moonlight sprinkled down, illuminating the bottom space more clearly, and sure enough, ...... There is only this one tree in the huge underground palace, and this tree is really a world realm.

"Are we still under the labyrinth?" Zhan Zhao couldn't help but ask.

"Perhaps...... No. Bai Yutang said, "We walked a long staircase just now, and we may have left the maze city and arrived at other places in the ghost sea. It was dark because the sand covered the dome, and now the wind and sand may have blown the sand away...... This one may be glazed, and I've done this kind of glazed dome in the Sky Island before. ”

"That's not Ruri's." Yin Hou shook his head, "It's Bing Jade." ”

"Ice jade?" Everyone raised their eyebrows - so expensive! Who built it? is more defeated than Bai Yutang.

"It is said that this dragon scale tree is unique to the Icefish Palace, and it can only be grown in the Icefish Palace." Yin Hou said, "The legendary Icefish Palace is an island built in the middle of the sea. The entire palace is topped with ice jade. At high tide, the sea will close the Ice Fish Palace, and the palace will be dark, and at low tide, the top of the palace will be exposed, and the sun will shine in, and the dragon scale tree will grow bigger and bigger. The Ice Fish Palace is full of dragon scale trees, all kinds of white birds shuttle between the palaces, and the Ice Fish Clan also likes to wear white, and the houses are built on trees, like a dream. ”

Everyone imagined that scene for a while, and they also felt that it was really a fairyland on earth.

Zhan Zhao's arm lightly touched Bai Yutang, "It seems that you haven't inherited anything else, but you have inherited it by loving to wear white." ”

Bai Yutang was distracted at this time, I don't know if there is really something in the blood of Lu Dao, when Yin Hou described the Ice Fish Palace, there seemed to be a certain scene in front of him, very familiar.

"This kind of tree, how tall the trunk is, how tall the roots are." Yin Hou's words drew everyone's attention back.

"You mean." Zhan Zhao was surprised, "The roots of the tree are also more than a hundred zhang?" ”

Yin Hou nodded.

"And there must be a hollow section in the middle of the roots." Tianzun continued, "In other words, we didn't go to the underground palace at all...... Underwater is the dungeon! ”

"The dungeon?" Zhan Zhao was surprised, "There is a palace under the water? ”

"That's right." Yin Hou nodded, "The Sea Dragon Tomb in the Four Holy Lands is the underground palace of the Ice Fish Palace. ”

"So how do you go down? To be very water-based? Zhan Zhao thought, I don't know if Aunt Huang can add Jiang Siye?

"It's useless for anyone, only the Icefish Clan can enter." Yin Hou said.

Bai Yutang thought about it, it seems that he really didn't inherit any bloodline from the Ice Fish Clan...... Compared with Zhanzhao, they are just small scales and big scales, but the common point is that they sink when they get wet.

"The Icefish Clan is so good at water?" Zou Liang asked.

"Actually, it has nothing to do with whether it is watery or not." Yin Hou muttered to himself and glanced at Tianzun.

Tianzun raised his eyebrows and said, "You can try it if you don't have it." ”

Everyone wondered, "How do you try?" ”

However, at this moment, Tianzun suddenly raised his hand and slapped Bai Yutang's shoulder......

Zhan Zhao was shocked, and everyone was also stunned.

Bai Yutang didn't react at all, he never thought that one day Tianzun would slap him back. Of course, Tianzun didn't hurt him at all, but that palm had a huge thrust, and Bai Yutang flew into the air and flew directly to the water.

"Yutang!" Zhan Zhao shouted and was about to go over and grab him, but Yin Hou behind him grabbed him, "Don't move." ”

Zhan Zhao turned his head and looked at Yin Hou with wide eyes, and at this time he had already heard a "bang", and sure enough, Bai Yutang sank down when he fell into the water.

Zhan Zhao was shocked, but Yin Hou grabbed him and didn't let go.

"Grandpa!" Zhan Zhao shouted, but saw that Yin Hou and everyone behind him were looking up at the sky, and at the same time, a huge shadow appeared on the water under the moonlight.

Zhan Zhao also subconsciously raised his head, and then - stunned.

Tianzun opened his mouth wide and looked at the sky, and sighed, "It turns out that there really is......"

Lin Ye's eyes widened, "I'm a god......"

……

"Stand back!" Yin Hou dragged Zhanzhao to take a step back, and at the same time, he heard a loud "bang", a huge impact force, which made the splash on the surface of the water splash into the air.

Zhanzhao looked at the whirlpool lake, "This ......"

"Don't worry." Yin Hou patted him, "Your Yutang will be fine." ”

Zhan Zhao looked at Yin Hou with nervous eyes - really? Don't lie to me!

Yin Hou patted him on the shoulder to reassure him - there was something dangerous, how could Tianzun let Yutang do it? Hold your horses!

"Is it really okay?" Zhan Zhao asked again, "Yutang doesn't know how to water." ”

"He won't, the other one will." Tianzun sighed, "Oh, it's unpredictable in this world, people are not as good as heaven, maybe one day you can really go to the Sea Dragon Tomb." ”

"It will scare Lu Tianhan to death." Yin Hou smiled bitterly, "I don't know if the road is a blessing or a curse." ”

"The Sea Dragon Tomb or something, let's talk about it later." On the side, Zou Liang, who had always been calm, reminded, "It seems that there are other things to deal with in front of you." ”

Tianzun also nodded.

Because at this time, I saw that under the moonlight, there was a little red glow around the surroundings, dense and numerous, and if you look closely, it is red eyes.

On the steps around me, there were black figures standing, like charred corpses, staring at the people by the lake with their eyes - they were sand ghosts!
