Ye Haotian tried to recall the small courtyard that Zhao Qing said, while continuing to look in the palace, the palace was heavily guarded, and there were patrolling guards everywhere, these guards were all up and down the second realm, and they couldn't release their divine sense, under the cover of night, he was not worried about being discovered, but as he went deeper into the inner mansion, there were more and more people patrolling, which greatly slowed down his search speed.

Passing through a wall with the soil division technique again, Ye Haotian entered a large garden full of green trees and flowers.

The garden is particularly secluded, with a small three-story building in the middle of the garden, with no lights in the building and no guards around.

There were a few winding paths in the garden, Ye Haotian had just stepped on the bluestone slab of one of the paths, and suddenly felt that the ground sank slightly, and several sharp sounds of breaking the air sounded in the grass next to him, and three short arrows emitting cold light shot diagonally at his chest.

It's a crossbow!

Ye Haotian's reaction was extremely fast, in the few years he had lived on Seven Star Island, he had dealt with all kinds of rune array mechanisms, and almost the moment the stone slab trembled, he realized that something was wrong, as soon as the sound of breaking the air started, the person fell backwards, and three sharp arrows flew past the clothes on his chest, deeply embedded in the wall behind.

Even if he dodged the dark crossbow, Ye Haotian was still shocked into a cold sweat, the three major talents operated on their own, with the help of the faint starlight, he carefully looked around, only to find that this large garden with a radius of several hundred meters turned out to be a huge chain trap.

"There are traps all over the garden, so it's no wonder there are no guards patrolling. ”

Ye Haotian's gaze fell on a few tall ginkgo trees not far away, his pupils contracted slightly, and there, he vaguely felt the aura of some powerful formation.

"It seems that this small building should be the important place of the palace, but I don't know what is in it. ”

The mechanism of the garden is extremely exquisitely designed, and the power of those formations is amazing, once triggered, the lethality caused by it is enough to instantly kill any cultivator under the Five Realms, but for Ye Haotian, who is a master of the Heavenly Machine Gate, it is not enough to cause too much trouble, thinking that he has not found the small courtyard where Su Ning'er is under house arrest after tossing for more than an hour, he became curious about this small building.

After half a cup of tea, Ye Haotian came to the door of the small building, to his surprise, the door was not locked, and the door opened with a light push, judging from the stone slab ground reflecting the faint starlight under his feet, it was obvious that there were often people coming in and out here, otherwise the ground would not be rubbed as smooth as a mirror.

There were no lights in the building, but it was not pitch black, at least in Ye Haotian's sight, he could see that there were large and small wooden boxes and stone frames on both sides.

Some faint light emanated from the talisman on the wooden box and the stone frame, and continued to expand in the depths of Ye Haotian's pupils, and he quickly saw the furnishings in the building.

Armor, weapons, hides, blood, hedrons......

With only a cursory glance, Ye Haotian deduced the role of Xiao Lou - this was obviously a laboratory specially prepared for the study of making rune emperor costumes.

Walked up the stairs to the second floor, where Ye Haotian saw an experimental table more than ten meters long and more than five meters wide.

There was a pair of dark red armor on the table, the style of this armor Ye Haotian was very familiar with, and it was very similar to the Silver Wing Emperor Costume worn by Su Yueyang's guards, but the armor was three times thicker, obviously belonging to the ranks of heavy armor, in the Great Xia Kingdom, the heavy armored cavalry was the real killing weapon for attacking the city, and the defensive power of the steel armor itself in front of him alone was enough to withstand the full force of the peak cultivators of the Three Realms.

In addition to a complete set of armor, there were also seven or eight pieces of cuirass steel plates on the table, on which were carved with intricate lines, apparently someone wanted to carve a talisman on them.

In the middle of the table, Ye Haotian saw dozens of drawings specially used to practice formations, and the paper was also full of runes, and the one closest to the edge also had a slender silver pen knife on it.

After making sure that the closed windows were enough to block the light in the building, Ye Haotian entered some spiritual yuan into the Yuan Li lamp on the side, and the faint light suddenly clearly reflected the patterns on the paper to his eyes.

"It's a flaming lion. ”

After carefully reading the pattern of the imperial costume on the paper, Ye Haotian stared at him in surprise, this is actually a drawing draft of a third-order imperial costume, although the direction of some of the lines is slightly deviated, but on the whole, it is almost exactly the same as the flame lion recorded in Tianjimen's "Hundred Records of Imperial Costumes". It's just that after the destruction of Tianjimen a hundred years ago, the production drawings of this set of imperial costumes were lost along with dozens of other precious drawings, and I didn't expect it to appear here.

"Someone actually drew a flame lion, is this person a disciple of the Tianji Gate?"

Ye Haotian frowned, according to what Master Zhao Tiangang said, the means and methods of drawing the emperor's costume in Tianjimen are extremely complicated, and the degree of esoteria is far superior to that of other sects, but all the imperial costumes recorded in the "Hundred Records of Emperor Costumes" have special production secrets, and it is difficult for non-core disciples of Tianjimen to understand the subtlety even if they get the drawings, judging from this drawing line, the person who drew it has obviously understood most of the essence, but there seem to be two more runes here, and there seems to be one less here......

Out of some habits, Ye Haotian unconsciously picked up the pen knife on the table, and gently drew a crescent-shaped arc somewhere in it, where the pen fell, the lion-like pattern on the paper seemed to suddenly come to life, and instantly exuded a violent and unruly aura.

"No, these lines on the lion's head should have been inserted straight into the lion's heart, how did they turn to the lion's back?"

Ye Haotian quickly discovered the problem again, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

As a personal disciple of Zhao Tiangang, the master of the Heavenly Machine Sect and the head of the Five Great Sages, Ye Haotian's talent in imperial costume art has far exceeded that of most imperial costume masters in the world, and the three major talents he has cultivated on the island allow him to see the painter's cultivation and attainments from this drawing at a glance.

From this drawing of the Flame Lion, Ye Haotian could see that the person who drew it had at least the level of a third-grade emperor costume master, but he didn't understand that a few of the runes in it were obviously not for him, but they were retained, and the consequence of this was that the overall power of the emperor costume was reduced by twenty percent, and the original weight reduction rune array also lost its effect.

Just when Ye Haotian was puzzled, there was a sudden sound of opening the door downstairs, and he hurriedly extinguished the Lingyuan lamp and swooped under the table.

"This is the secret pavilion where this elder specializes in making imperial costumes, knowing that the prince is going to send people, he drove all the subordinates out in advance, rest assured, the entire palace is the safest here, and there is formation protection around, our conversation will never be transmitted to the ears of the third person, even Su Tianbing does not dare to break in without permission." I don't know what King Wu commanded, please make it clear to the secret envoy. ”

As soon as Ye Haotian hid, he heard the voice of a slightly hoarse middle-aged man from below.
