Even if Ling Kun said that it was a woman's benevolence, Yang Gang was not angry, he had already seen through the demonic essence hidden under Ling Kun's hypocritical appearance, for such a person, no matter what he said, it would make the other party feel that he was not decisive enough, however, how could he not feel that the other party was cruel and unreasonable?

There is nothing special about the first floor of Dengxian Palace, except for the dozens of ancient corpses that look a little terrifying, the entire hall should also be divided into the front hall and the apse, at this time their location is the front hall, which should be used as a meeting hall, similar to a place for the king of a country to deal with government affairs.

The caisson above the head is a threaded whirlwind structure, and the patterns and carvings on it are well preserved, and the colorful ones add a little different temperament to the main hall.

The second half of the front hall is the most eye-catching, but also the set of pure gold thrones held by four dragon and phoenix relief entangled gold pillars, behind the gold seat stands nine flashy screens, just cut off the view of the apse.

A group of people walked around the screen directly to the apse, the style of the apse is obviously very different from the front hall, according to common sense, the apse is mostly a resting place, but it is not a real reclining hall, so although all the furnishings of this apse are similar to the reclining hall, there are still many differences in this closer look.

Everyone had only stopped at the front of Dengxian Palace before, so they didn't know the architectural structure of the entire palace, even Xia Yanru and Donglin, who had arrived first and carefully explored the palace, actually didn't see the entire external structure of the palace completely.

At first glance, this Dengxian Palace is a magnificent palace built on the mountain, but only when you go around to the side to see, you will find that part of the building of this palace is built directly in the mountain, so no matter how you look at it, you will not see the structure of the entire palace, only the number of floors is clear at a glance.

"This Dengxian Palace feels quite big to me, why does it feel a little different from when I look at it outside?" Fang Hu looked around, only to feel that this apse was more than half smaller than the front hall, and the front and rear halls combined, this feeling was not much.

"There's a secret door behind the wall." Xia Yanru came to the innermost wall, stretched out her hand to measure the wall for a while, and soon found the subtle gap between the wall and the secret door, and then increased the thrust on her hand, and really pushed the secret door a little away.

Seeing this, Ling Kun asked people to step forward to take Xia Yanru's place without saying a word, and did not retreat until the secret door was completely opened, leaving only the extra dark hole in the same place.

Everyone turned on their flashlights, and the two pathfinders walked in first, followed by Ling Kun. In this regard, Xia Yanru and Donglin have no opinion, anyway, no matter how many people enter, the final destination is the same.

Walking in the dark corridor, everyone was silent and only cared about the feet and in front of them, and walked like this for about five or six minutes, before they reached the end of the corridor, and pushed open another stone secret door, and the space behind it seemed much larger than the previous front and rear halls combined.

"Here." Donglin was a little hesitant and didn't know how to describe it, at first glance, it looked a bit like a place for Jiulong to practice, but the huge stairs on both sides were built a little too obviously, which directly destroyed the style of the original space, but if it wasn't a practice place, this decorative style was a bit unreasonable.

"Jiulong's cultivation place, his alchemy room must be on the second floor." After Ling Kun finished speaking excitedly, the person walked directly towards the stairs on the side.

Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow, but in the end the others were not as impatient as Ling Kun, although they followed him to the second floor, but after they entered the second floor, Ling Kun's figure disappeared without a trace.

The long corridor was empty, except for those closed doors, where was Ling Kun's figure, everyone was a little stunned for a while, and Donglin looked directly at Xia Yanru, with a faint look of expectation in his eyes.

Xia Yanru also didn't expect this situation, she didn't expect that Ling Kun would disappear in just a few seconds, but she didn't think it was an accident, but it was possible that Ling Kun did it intentionally, maybe the other party had already entered one of the doors.

If time is used as a basis for judgment, Xia Yanru intuitively feels that the possibility of Ling Kun wanting to complete the instant disappearance is very small, only it is possible that he entered a room nearby, the structure of this second floor is completely different from the first floor, there is only a straight corridor at a glance, and the position at the end is hidden in the darkness and cannot be seen.

Xia Yanru thought for a moment, then directly pushed open the door closest to them, the wooden door opened, and the flashlight was projected inside, it was a very ordinary storage room, several wooden shelves were placed in the room in turn, and the things placed on the shelves were nothing special, mostly bronze sculptures and clay pots.

"No one." Dong Lin also thought that Ling Kun might have taken advantage of the time difference of a few seconds before and after to hide in that room, especially the room closest to them was the most likely.

"Look at the feet." Xia Yanru took a flashlight to shine on the ground in front of her and let Donglin see it for herself.

"There's a secret door?" After reading it, Dong Lin immediately realized that there were very subtle traces on the ground, these traces were very new, and they were the first guests of this Dengxian Palace, so these traces could only be left by Ling Kun.

Following the traces until the south wall stopped, Xia Yanru and several people held flashlights to keep looking for clues to the secret door, but fortunately, the design of the secret door was not complicated, and everyone quickly found the secret door and opened it.

"That's interesting, exactly the same?" The room that entered through the secret door was completely indistinguishable from the one that everyone had just entered, whether it was the placement of the wooden shelves or the furnishings on it.

"The traces are exactly the same." Xia Yanru's face sank slightly, if it weren't for her strong memory, she might not have found such a trivial place.

"Could it be an illusion?" Donglin's first reaction was naturally that he felt that this was not caused by man, but he also felt that the possibility of illusion did not seem to be very large.

Xia Yanru shook her head, she wasn't sure if she had been tricked again, but she didn't find anything that could trigger the illusion, and she felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what the problem was for a while.

"Since it's not, let's take a look." Dong Lin said in his heart that as long as it was not an illusion, then it must be Ling Kun's turtle grandson who deliberately made it out to scare them.

At first, Xia Yanru also thought so, after all, Ling Kun seemed to be much more familiar with this place than them, saying that he didn't have a map of the dungeon in his hand, she didn't believe it anyway, so the time difference in the first few seconds was enough for him to disappear, and when they entered the first room, the time difference continued to widen, and it was not difficult for Ling Kun to do some details during this period.

I followed the traces to find the secret door again, and after pushing it open, everything in front of me was expected, but also a little unexpected, the layout of the room was still exactly the same as the previous two rooms, and the traces left by Ling Kun were the same, it looked as if Xia Yanru and they were constantly returning to the first room.
