"What is this? Is it a remnant of the plague?" Qi Xuansu looked at the red mist that shrouded the palace.

Wu Niang said: "No, logically speaking, the royal palace should be the most heavily guarded, and the most likely situation is that the city is full of plagues, and only the palace is still a pure land. There is no other way around, so that the palace is full of plagues and the rest of the world is safe."

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but sigh: "The way of heaven is more than enough to make up for the deficiency, and the way of man is more than enough to be devoted. The Supreme Dao Ancestor has already explained the truth of human nature."

Qi Xuansu thought for a moment, and then said, "On the other hand, if the city is full of plagues and the palace becomes the only pure land, then could these red mist be some kind of means used by the palace to ward off the plague?"

"I can't rule it out." Wu Niang motioned for Qi Xuansu to retreat, "Don't take any risks yet, let me come."

Qi Xuansu didn't have the ability, even if he was a martial artist, he couldn't compare to Wu Niang, who could resist the "Taiyi Method" head-on, as for the "Heart of the Immortal Stone", it was just a heart, not the "Body of the Immortal Stone".

Naturally, there is a very wide square in the palace, but the wall has been swallowed up by the rainforest, and the square has also become a woodland, and the palace that should have stood out from the crowd has now become hidden in the heavy rainforest, and the presence of red mist makes it impossible to see the whole picture of the palace.

Wu Niang burned a section of the wall with fire and walked into the rainforest and red mist.

Then Wu Niang felt the vicious divine power hidden in the mist, but it was still the same sentence, Wu Niang is an immortal, although these divine powers are powerful, but for her, they are not worth mentioning, just like ordinary people take a few breaths of ordinary mist, and the impact is not great.

Wu Niang pointed at Qi Xuansu outside, and a flame seeped into Qi Xuansu's body, but it didn't hurt Qi Xuansu in the slightest, it was the "Xuanhuo Healing" mentioned by Wu Niang before, and then Wu Niang signaled that Qi Xuansu could come in.

Qi Xuansu walked into the red mist, and also felt the danger of these red mist, but the flame in his body immediately automatically cleared the mist that seeped into his body, and it seemed that the "Xuanhuo Healing" could not only treat, but also prevent.

The two exchanged ideas instead.

Qi Xuansu said, "It seems that we guessed wrong, the reason why the epidemic in the city disappeared was not because the people ran out and died, but because they all gathered in the palace area, probably because the epidemic qi was too dense and dense, it actually changed from invisible to tangible, manifesting into a red mist visible to the naked eye. You know, I don't believe much in human nature, but is it true that the royal family of Paittiti, these meat eaters, are so noble that they are willing to trade their lives for the survival of the people in the city?"

Wu Niang said: "I don't believe in human nature either, so I think that these epidemics themselves are aimed at the royal family, you have walked the rivers and lakes, you should have heard of many massacres, the murderer is hidden in the dark, usually starting from the servants and maids and other peripheral members, and slowly putting pressure on the main target. Isn't this the same? If someone wants to put pressure on the royal family, they should start with the ordinary people around them, and wait until the city is in turmoil and the royal family has come to the end of despair, and then launch a general attack on the royal family, and then the goal can be achieved."

Qi Xuansu quickly pondered, "If our previous speculation is true, and all of this is related to the god of death, then what purpose are they trying to achieve? Sometimes the massacres in the rivers and lakes are for treasures, treasure maps or exercise cheats, so what do the ancient gods want? Or what was there in the royal family of Paittiti that the old gods craved? In addition to the artifact, it is the cave of Payiti. The artifact is equivalent to an immortal object, although it is valuable, but it doesn't seem to be worth the trouble of the ancient gods, after all, one immortal object is not enough for so many ancient gods to share. Then it's only the cave."

Wu Niang said: "I have a guess that the Cave Heaven was originally closed, the portal and key were in the hands of the royal family, and the ancient gods could not enter it, and the ancient gods came to the Cave Heaven in Paitti in order to obtain or enter the Cave Heaven of Payitti, and made some deals with the royal family here. In the beginning, the old gods should have adopted a policy of gentleness, wanting to obtain or enter the Cave of Payiti in a more peaceful way, so there is the temple of Itsumna, and the old gods became the patron saints of Payiti, and sent worms who had long been loyal to the old gods to serve as priests."

Qi Xuansu said along Wu Niang's train of thought

"Actually, it was a poison wrapped in a sugar-coating, and it turned out that the royal family of Payiti ate the sugar-coating and threw away the poison wrapped in it. The Old Gods have made a huge investment, but they have not been able to get a return for a long time, and they are angry. If the soft ones don't work, the hard ones will come. So the Grim Reaper, who represents the dark side of the old gods, struck a hand and created this terrible plague, emptying the city and plunging the royal family into despair."

"Because it is the collective action of the ancient gods, the resources and divine power that the god of death can use are not ordinary and comparable, and they must be even more terrifying than the 'gift' that Si Ming Zhenjun descended in Jinling Mansion, even if the royal family of Payiti is not weak, it cannot deal with it. Faced with this situation, the royal family of Paittiti can only choose to open the cave and lead the rest of the people to retreat into the cave to avoid the epidemic, so that the ancient gods can also follow into the cave sky."

"These plague fogs were only persecuting the royal family, not killing it, so they finally gathered and stayed in the palace and not anywhere else. From this, it can also be concluded that the gateway to the Cave of Paitti must be in the palace."

Wu Niang high-fived and said, "The analysis is very good, there are not too many flaws in the logic, it should be like this." The Old Gods came for the cave and eventually succeeded in occupying it, when the leader of the Old Gods was Itsumna, and the Holy See did not invade the New World. Later, Itsuma left the key to open the Paittiti Cave in the ruins of him and Ishchel, and then came the invasion of the Holy Court, and Itsumner was defeated and killed, and Kukulkan seized power and led the Old Gods south to the southern continent." Look at the book

Qi Xuansu asked, "Why did they leave the key in the Northern Continent?"

Wu Niang said, "It is said that Itsumner has the ability to predict the future, maybe he saw a certain future when the Holy Court army was pressing, so he deliberately left the key and waited for someone who was destined. If you are the one who is destined to do so, then it means that It-Sumner was right in his prediction, and you have indeed come to Paittiti with the key now."

Qi Xuansu thought of the immortal methods of the Heavenly Master and the Purple Light True Monarch, and even his back and forth between the past and the present were in their expectations, so they naturally did not dare to underestimate It-Sumna's methods, even if It-Sumner was dead.

Qi Xuansu took out the key: "If this is the key to the Cave Heaven, then how can other people enter the Cave Heaven of Payiti?"

Wu Niang said: "The cardinal key of Dongtian is actually divided into large and small, just like the sluice gate has a main gate and a opening gate, as long as the main gate is pulled, the opening gate is useless. Take Kunlun Cave Heaven as an example, the 'Three Treasures Ruyi' is the main gate, which can open or close the Cave Heaven, but there is only one 'Three Treasures Ruyi', and there are so many people in and out of Kunlun Cave, you can't let Jiang Hedao open the door every day, right? In fact, after opening the Kunlun Cave with the 'Three Treasures of Ruyi', the Dao Gate has added prohibitions at each entrance, and you must have the key given by the Dao Gate to enter and exit."

Qi Xuansu understood, it was equivalent to the person who built the cave sky only set up a big lock, only the only big key, and later people added many small locks, there were many small keys, and then the big lock was always open, and the small lock was opened through the small key to control the entry and exit.

The key in Qi Xuansu's hand is a "small key".

Qi Xuansu said: "In this way, the artifact held by Emperor Payiti is the 'General Gate' of the Cave Heaven, which is equivalent to the 'Three Treasures Ruyi', and the entire Payiti Cave Heaven was closed before, so the ancient gods could not enter. After Emperor Payiti had to use an artifact to open the cave, the ancient gods took advantage of the situation to enter it, and the dove occupied the magpie's nest, and the cave has been open since then, but the ancient gods have added some access controls, so now you don't need an artifact to enter and exit the cave, but you need the key of the ancient gods."

Wu Niang said, "That's what it means. Don't underestimate this kind of prohibition set by multiple ancient gods, when the Enlightened Six Witches and Lu Wu God went to war, and the Enlightened Six Witches joined forces to set up a formation, even Lu Wu God couldn't break through. Therefore, without the key, the two of us will definitely not be able to enter the Cave of Payiti."

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but ask, "Wu Niang, can you contact Jiang Lao?" If all this is expected by Itsumner, then it may not be a good thing for me to go in, and maybe I will have to face the gods."

Wu Niang said: "Even if the Daomen can come in a short period of time, it will be alone, and you still expect Xidaomen and Ichchel to be more realistic

。」

Qi Xuansu stopped speaking and continued to go deeper into the palace area.

Soon, Qi Xuansu and Wu Niang came to the base of the main body of the palace, it is strange to say, these rainforest vegetation is not affected by the disease fog at all, still thriving, under the destruction of the rainforest, this once very majestic palace has been very dilapidated at this time, many places are grown from the ground plants to the top, become uneven, the outer wall is covered with moss, so that this place is integrated with the rainforest in color, plus the palace is similar to a trapezoid, at first glance I thought it was a small green mountain.

The two men walked up the steps to the main hall of the palace, the door of which was closed and a line of writing was written on it.

Wu Niang read it directly: "When the seal was opened, there was a huge earthquake, and the full moon was as red as blood, because the wrath of the gods had arrived."

Qi Xuansu said, "It seems that we have guessed correctly, the wrath of the gods is actually annoyance and anger, and opening the seal should refer to the seal of the Paitti Cave Heaven. Then the legend of the cave has things that can make people cross the catastrophe and ascend, and most of them are also true. No wonder the Old Gods are fighting for it."

Wu Niang sighed: "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty."

Qi Xuansu asked, "It is said that Kunlun Cave Heaven also has such things?"

Wu Niang said, "Of course there is, but it can only be opened by the 'Three Treasures Ruyi', so the 'Three Treasures Ruyi' is the symbol of the authority of the Great Palm Sect, ranking first among all immortals."

After that, Wu Niang slowly pushed open the door of the palace: "Maybe my fate is also here, I have been an immortal for so many years, can I really become an immortal?"
