Gritting his teeth and being ruthless, Lin Yi swam into the dim palace and walked forward cautiously.

The palace is huge, from the bottom to the top of the four or five floors, the stone wall stands, the golden pillars are continuous, majestic and brilliant, I think it was once the place where a certain big man lived.

However, it has been submerged by the sea for 10,000 years, and only ruins remain of its former glory.

There are no strange things in the palace, except for the ruins, which are rubble and rubble, and there is thick earth here and there, which is in tatters.

It doesn't feel like a palace, it's like an underground cave.

The only recognizable items are broken furnishings, tables, chairs and benches, proving that the palace was once inhabited.

Lin Yi swam cautiously against the wall, wiping his palm inadvertently to wipe off the sludge, and saw a few words vaguely exposed on the wall, and couldn't help but be surprised.

He wiped it twice with his hand, and he could see it more clearly, but it was the eight big characters of "Heaven is unfair, I want to cut it", which is majestic and immortal for ten thousand years.

Not to mention who left it, the tone is really not small.

Lin Yi kept wiping and wiping off the sludge on the wall, and in addition to the sparse words, he saw another picture scroll.

The painting is very simple, it is a series of mountains, green trees, lingering.

A group of monks stood in the air, laughing and talking among the mountains, so unhappy.

There is a line of small words next to it: The people of the holy mountain, live with the sky.

Further down, there is a strange white mark, like a crane flying high in the sky with its wings outstretched.

Holy?

Lin Yi felt familiar, as if he had seen this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

In order to understand the world, he once bought some books in the big market and read them carefully, and it is estimated that there is a record of the "holy mountain" in them, so he feels familiar.

Lin Yi continued to wipe the wall next to him, and all he saw were murals.

There are deserts with scorching sun, green grasses, long rivers that flow for thousands of miles, and all kinds of monks who fly to the sky and escape to the earth, and the means of immortals.

The text also mentions cultivation, and Lin Yi doesn't understand it, but the two words mentioned most are undoubtedly "holy mountain", which is estimated to have an extraordinary origin.

In addition, there are crane-shaped markings on each wall.

Connected together, it really looks like a flock of cranes soaring on the picture scroll.

This thing is probably the mark of the "holy mountain", after all, since ancient times, monks have had the ambition to travel like cranes.

Unconsciously, Lin Yi walked to the depths of the palace and became less and less interested in the calligraphy and paintings hidden on the stone walls.

The palace, he thought, must be a relic of the primeval era.

At that time, the plane was not submerged by the ocean, and the monks practiced the way of immortality on the vast land, so they left these scrolls.

Now the desert is gone, the wilderness is gone, the long river is gone, the mountains are gone, and only a vast sea area remains.

Just as he was lost, a faint light suddenly flashed in front of Lin Yi's eyes.

He had sharp eyes and was immediately recognizable.

"There are spirits!"

Looking for the past, in the sludge in the corner of the wall, Lin Yi finally found it, and when he opened it, there was a pure essence in front of him.

Ha ha!

Joy from the sky!

Lin Yi did not hesitate to include it in the space ring.

Then he continued to look forward, and sure enough, there were often surprises under the ruins and sludge of the palace, and after a while, he collected five pieces of essence.

Not surprisingly, this palace is an ancient thing, at least it has been hidden under the sea for 10,000 years, and it is normal to accumulate some essence.

Lin Yi was immediately interested, staring at the two eyes and looking around.

It's like panning for gold.

No way, essence is more precious to him than gold.

About half a pillar of incense time, Lin Yi found more than a dozen pieces of essence, and the harvest was full.

This palace is undoubtedly a mountain of gold, and if he is given enough time to find it from the first floor to the top floor, he will reap at least hundreds of thousands.

It's a pity that Lin Yi doesn't know how the giant ape and the god hand are fighting, in case the giant ape returns to the bottom of the sea and finds that the palace has entered the thief, he will definitely be angry and pinch Lin Yi to death.

Time was pressing, Lin Yi didn't dare to delay, and collected frantically.

Before you know it, you swim to the depths of the palace.

There are really a lot of essences here, and you can touch one in a few steps.

It is estimated that in 10,000 years, Lin Yi was the first "thief" to break in, and the harvest was not much.

He was gathering the essence with great joy, oblivious to the fact that there was a man standing in the corner of the palace, staring straight at him with a faint glow.

After a while, Lin Yi finally felt that something was wrong, and when he looked up, his face was so frightened that his face turned pale.

In the dimly lit corner stood a man dressed in black, with a blurred face, a long gray beard on his chin, swaying with the undercurrents of the water, and his skin was covered with wrinkles, estimated to be eighty or ninety years old.

It's an old man!

Who would dare to think that in this palace that has been abandoned for thousands of years, there are actually living people!

"I don't know that the seniors are here, the juniors recklessly broke in, please forgive the seniors!"

Lin Yi hurriedly lowered his posture and bowed down, lest the other party would slaughter him without saying anything.

Unexpectedly, after a few sentences, the old man did not move and did not reply.

"Senpai?"

Lin Yi stepped forward cautiously.

When I got closer, I found that the old man's clothes were rotten, covered in mud, and the lower half of his body was buried in the mud and sand, like a mud figurine.

Could it be a dead body?

But those blazing eyes were wide open, and there was a hidden light.

It's so weird!

Lin Yi took a few more steps forward, and walked around the old man's back while observing, but he didn't know what he saw, and his expression suddenly changed greatly.

From the front, the old man was quite normal, but a big hole in the back of the bowl was exposed, and the abdomen was empty, as if something had hollowed out the internal organs from the back.

This man is an empty shell.

Lin Yi's courage increased, since he was not a living person, there was nothing to be afraid of.

He stepped forward and touched it, and found that the old man's body was hard and solid, not flesh and blood, but more like a sculpture, with a layer of human skin on the outside.

But obviously, this is not a simple stone statue or clay figurine.

Because the old man's gaze is too real, like a living person, bright and bright.

Is it a puppet?

Lin Yi wasn't sure, he had seen records in some books that there were puppets in this world that could be crafted and lived, not only powerful, but also capable of manipulating as they wanted, more powerful than any weapon.

In ancient times, there were many craftsmen who could forge puppets.

This palace is ancient, and it is not uncommon for a puppet to be left behind.

"Let's take it first!"

No matter what it was, if it came into its pocket, Lin Yi hurriedly opened the space ring and forcibly took the old man in.

A short distance further on, at the deepest point, a high stone staircase appeared in front of you, leading to the upper floor of the palace.

Lin Yi didn't dare to go any further, calculating the time, he had already stepped into the palace for half a moment, and if he delayed any longer, it would be more and more dangerous.

Although he coveted the treasures and essences of the upper layers in his heart, out of caution, he still stopped there and left quickly.

After successfully leaving the palace and swimming to the sea, Lin Yi heard a loud rumbling sound in the air, like thunder rolling through the sky, deafening.

When I looked up, the huge black palm covered the sky and the sun, constantly pressing down, as if the nine heavens had collapsed.

Between his fingers, the black-armored ape jumped around, punching one punch at the palm of his hand, and the force of each punch was extremely terrifying, shaking the giant hand trembling.

Strange rocks fell like hailstones, causing waves on the surface of the sea.

This is a duel between the gods!

In front of them, Lin Yi is not even as good as an ant, only for the sake of watching from a distance.
