427. Crystal Palace

Although only a small patch is exposed, it is clearly visible that it is hidden by a thin layer of earth, like the dome structure of some kind of building.

Without hesitation, Xie Zheng increased the strength of his palm, directly cleaned up the large patches of attached soil, and then, as she expected, there was indeed a rolling roof under their feet.

It was only separated by a transparent prohibition that emitted a silver light.

"This must be the ancient city, right?"

Xie Zheng tentatively stroked his hand up, it was a warm watery touch, but in the next moment, his fingertips passed smoothly and unhindered.

She froze, and couldn't help but glance at Ciyin.

Before the two men could even speak, the prohibition under their feet suddenly shattered, rippling like a wave of water, engulfing them in the blink of an eye.

The two who were forbidden to swallow it, after a period of falling, quickly stabilized their figures, and it was only at this time that they could see the situation around them clearly.

Xie Zheng landed at a towering corner of the eaves, and curiously stretched out his hand to touch the almost transparent surface of the building, which was still warm and cool to the touch.

"What race is this building? It's all this dazzlingly white material, and it looks weird. ”

But apart from the large silver-white buildings visible to the naked eye, there is not a trace of life here.

Ciyin stretched out her hand to her: "Let's go down and have a look." ”

Xie Zheng nodded, immediately jumped down from the pointed eaves, and then fell to the ground together.

"Except for the weird colors, the others look very ordinary, and they are not much different from ordinary houses in the mortal world."

The two walked along the dilapidated path for some distance and did not notice anything unusual.

"But after entering inside, there are no traces left by the master, haven't they been here?"

Hearing this, Ciyin let out a low chuckle in his throat, then pointed to the collapsed courtyard wall on the side of the road, and said, "Look over there, have you found anything?" ”

Xie Zheng immediately looked in the direction he pointed, it was just an ordinary small building, and the surrounding walls had collapsed to the ground, and other than that, there was nothing special.

After thinking about it, she asked, "What discovery are you referring to?" ”

Ciyin glanced at her and smiled: "Although it is dilapidated, there is not a trace of dust here, and even under the stones of those walls, it is clean. ”

Xie Zheng: "? ”

And this kind of thing?

She took a few steps closer, squatted down, groped carefully a few times, and found that it was the same as what Ciyin said, and couldn't help but murmur: "How can there be no dust?" ”

After the words fell, she came back to her senses, frowned at him, and asked, "No, it's just no dust, does that mean anything?" ”

Ciyin pulled her up from the ground before she said slowly: "If it is a relic, it is impossible to maintain its original state after many years. ”

"You just said that you came in, but you can't feel the breath and traces of Xunlang Sword Venerable, I think, it should be the prohibition here, which can completely remove all traces."

Xie Zheng scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Even if the truth is really as you said, can we try to speculate why the people who laid down the ban did this?" ”

Hearing her words, Ciyin lowered her eyelids and asked with a smile, "In your opinion, what could be the reason?" ”

To keep a place as it was in the past, no matter how many years have passed, and not to be contaminated with any dust, can only mean that the place is important to the caster and wants to preserve it well.

Xie Zheng said his thoughts, and Ciyin nodded thoughtfully: "It makes sense." ”

After speaking, he changed his words: "But it's not enough." ”

Inadequate?

Xie Zheng twisted his eyebrows: "What about in your opinion?" ”

Instead of answering immediately, Ciyin dragged her on, and after a circle of crumbling courtyard walls, the path came to an abrupt end, and they entered a main road that could accommodate a number of carriages in parallel.

However, Xie Zheng couldn't help but pause, his eyes widened slightly: "That... Is that... Ryugu? ”

At the end of the road, there is an unusually majestic crystal palace!

Just from the appearance, it can be seen that this palace is definitely not inferior to the dragon palace built by Fuyuan in Linghai City.

"I remember that there were dragons in the Western Mirage in the past, such a big palace, it can't really be a dragon palace, right?"

Although it was only Xie Zheng's tentative guess, Ciyin affirmed her judgment.

"On the dome of the palace, there are dragon patterns and dragon carvings, looking at this layout, it looks like a formation guarding the dragon vein, it should be the Dragon Palace."

Without waiting for Xie Zheng to speak, he pulled her and continued to walk forward.

"Now that you've come here, you might as well go in and have a look."

The distance is not far away, but it is not close to say that it is not close, and he performed the technique of shrinking the ground into inches, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the gate of the crystal palace.

The material used to build the palace is like a crystal water mirror that is extremely hard, and the huge platform in front of the palace is also made of the same material, so that when you look down from above, you can also glimpse the bottomless abyss underground, which makes people feel chilling.

The whole palace seems to hang above the abyss.

With their strength, they were naturally fearless, Xie Zheng kicked open the two doors carved with intricate water patterns and dragon patterns, and then was stunned for a moment.

"Huh... This... Is it really the Dragon Palace? ”

Behind the gate, there is a huge space with a dome raised to unimaginable heights, visible to the naked eye, full of dragon elements, but... On the high platform at the end of the Shinto, a crystal shrine emitting a faint golden light suddenly appeared, and on the throne, there was a merman with a fishtail sitting on the throne.

It is a merman with an incredibly beautiful face, and it is difficult to distinguish between male and female.

The long seaweed-green hair was draped behind him, and he was dragged from the shrine to the ground, and the fabric on his upper body was pitiful, and it could only be covered... Incredibly flat chest.

Xie Zheng looked away from the merman, then turned his head to look at Ciyin, pulled his arm, and said, "I don't think this is a dragon palace at all, it's a palace of the merman clan, right?" ”

Ciyin looked down at her, curled her lips and smiled, and asked, "Do you think so?" ”

"Judging from the narratives of Xuannu and Candle Dragon and others, the extermination of the Shark Clan in the Far Sea should be before the Mirage Dragon Clan, and the Shark Man looks very strange."

Odd?

Xie Zheng pursed his lips, took a step forward, and the two of them appeared in front of the divine seat.

"It's already dead, but the body is still fresh, and the ban on the outside shouldn't be to preserve this corpse, right?"

But she just said it casually, and didn't care too much, just looked at the suffocating beautiful mermaid in front of her, shook her head and sighed:

"It's a pity, the mermaid clan is so beautiful, and they were wiped out indiscriminately."

"What kind of 'order' is that, and for what reason is it to destroy all the races of the Western Mirage?"

After speaking, she turned her head to look at Ciyin again, and her eyebrows twisted heavily: "I don't understand." ”
