Chapter 1152: Xuanwu Palace
The next moment, as the words landed, Wuqi and the hundreds of Star God Clansmen brought by Figa all flickered and disappeared in place, and when they reappeared, they had already come to a huge ship, which was the ship that Wuqi and his party took to leave the Eastern Xiuzhen Continent.
The speed of the ship was extremely fast, but the direction was not very fixed, because it was impossible to determine whether the Xuanhai Guardian Spirit was really still in the Xuanhai, everyone could only continue to drive on the Xuanhai Sea, but compared to when they had just left the Eastern Xiuzhen Continent, the situation at this moment was much better.
Because of the addition of Figa, every time they travel a certain distance, they can have the opportunity to suck up a large area of Xuanhai water, so that Rhodes can isolate that area directly from this world in an isolated way, and see what the internal situation is like after there is no water, this method is very useful, and it didn't take long for the group to find a large hall in the central area of Xuanhai.
It was a long and somewhat dilapidated hall, and Wuqi saw the clear and ancient characters on the horizontal plaque in front of the main hall at a glance, and said excitedly: "Xuanwu Palace, it won't be wrong."
The so-called guardian god of the Xuanhai Sea, I know what the Dao is, it should be the Xuanwu divine beast in ancient legends, and only in this way can it be called the guardian god. Let's go down, if the Patronus doesn't leave Genkai, he should be inside. ”
"Good. ”
When everyone heard this, they all nodded in unison, no one had any objections, and all of them jumped into this small world separated by Rhodes's spatial isolation technique with Wuqi under Wuqi's signal, here. All the threatening waters of the Xuan Sea have been sucked away by the Star God Clan, and there is only a quaint palace.
Xuanwu Palace, although the name is magnificent, particularly domineering, but in fact, when you really enter from the gate, people find that it is a bit exaggerated. Because this is not so much a palace as a ruin. There are ruins everywhere. As far as the eye can see, almost no corner is intact.
Although the area covered by the palace is very large, if compared to the palaces in the outside world, it is enough to be a hundred times that of any giant palace outside. But it's so dilapidated here. A lot of things are even old and completely spoiled. You can't touch it at all, Wuqi just accidentally touched the edges of a few pillars, and the whole pillar would collapse in an instant. It dissipated silently as if it had been reduced to ashes in an instant.
How long has it been since this place?
At this moment, many people invariably have this question. Wuqi frowned even more, and the questions in his heart were born one after another.
Since this place is already so dilapidated, does that mean that the Guardian Spirit has not been guarding here for a long time? Otherwise, it is impossible to make this place so dilapidated if there are Guardian Spirit Beasts living for a long time, right?
Not only is the building badly aged, many of the materials have even weathered, and the dust accumulated here is as thick as mud, and I can't find any traces of life along the way, is the patronus really gone?
Thinking of this, Wu Qi couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and even more unwilling, he subconsciously released his breath, and spread around without any scruples, hoping that through this way, he could find out the breath of living beings, even if it was only a trace.
Unfortunately, after trying it, there was zero gain. However, going back like this, Wuqi was really unwilling, and after thinking about it carefully, he began to try new methods, shouting loudly in all directions in the most common way for ordinary people, hoping to bring some hope to himself.
"Hey!! is there anyone here?"
The others were all a little puzzled when they saw Wuqi like this, but after thinking about it carefully, they understood Wuqi's thoughts, although they didn't have any expectations in their hearts, but in the end they all learned Wuqi's way, and together with Wuqi, they began to shout loudly, hoping to hear some different voices.
"Hey...... Feed...... Hey......"
"Is there anyone? Is there anybody? Somebody, please squeak!!Hey......"
Unfortunately, all of them tried to get the same answer, that is, disappointment, no matter how loud the shouting was, no one could receive any useful voice, and the only response that everyone could get was only the echo of themselves and the rest of the people.
Realizing this, everyone had to choose to leave in disappointment.
"Slug, it seems that our previous guess was correct. This Xuanhai Guardian Spirit has already left here, otherwise, it would be impossible not to come out until now. Nakorulu said.
Wuqi nodded in agreement and said with a wry smile: "It seems to be." The Patronus must have gone somewhere else, we ......"
However, just as he was about to leave with everyone, halfway through his words, his voice suddenly stopped abruptly, not because he didn't want to continue, but at this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and a possibility instantly came to mind.
The next moment, Wu Qi's words changed, as if he suddenly remembered something exciting, and his eyes lit up and he changed his words: "Wait! I forgot something important." Lulu, what season is it?"
"Winter. What's wrong??" Nakorulu replied puzzled, she felt a little inexplicable about Wuqi's question, when was it, and asked what the season was doing?
At the same time, when the rest of the people on the side heard this, they all had the same questions as Nakorulu, and they all turned their confused eyes towards Wuqi.
Wuqi's insight is too strong, and he can see all the thoughts of everyone at a glance, and his eyes are shining and he explained: "Of course it has a relationship, and it has a lot to do with it." I just thought of a possibility. Isn't this hall called the Xuanwu Palace? Since this is the case, the owner of the hall should be the Xuanwu Divine Beast in ancient legends.
The Xuanwu, in the legend, is a combination of a snake and a turtle, and the biggest commonality between snakes and turtles in winter is that they both need to hibernate. I don't know if what I'm thinking is necessarily right, but maybe it's true.
We can't find any traces of what the patron saint of the main hall is, and there is no trace of breath left for what is missing. It's not that he's gone, out of here, but hibernating.
In the world of ordinary people, when animals hibernate, there is no heartbeat and breathing, and naturally there will be no breath released, I don't know if the divine beast will be like this, but I think maybe the Xuanwu divine beast is also like this.
We can give it a try, as long as the temperature is raised here now, so that the Patronus can mistakenly perceive that the season outside is already spring. Maybe he'll wake up from some unknown corner. ”
After saying that. Wuqi fell his gaze directly on Na Ke Lulu's body, and the rest of them understood the meaning of Wu Qi's gaze with just one glance, and they also looked at Na Ke Lulu.
"I see. I'll try it. ”
Of course, Nakolulu also understood what Wuqi meant. The other party is trying to let himself cast fire magic. Let the surrounding temperature keep rising until it is enough to reach a level that is not much different from spring, since this method is possible. Naturally, she would not refuse, and without any hesitation, she agreed to Wuqi.
The next moment, Nakorulu's hands immediately flickered, and she took out the magic scepter from the space bracelet, held it firmly, and a fiery red light shot out from the top of the scepter in an instant, like ripples, centered on herself, and spread out wildly.
This is the purest power of fire elemental magic, which will not cause any damage to the human body, but will only raise the surrounding area.
The process of heating up around is very boring, and for a long time, everyone can do nothing, so they can only wait silently, waiting for the temperature to meet the requirements, but in the process of waiting, no one dares to take it lightly, everyone's heart is like a bowstring, tense tight.
Because, no one knows whether the speculation is true. If it is really as expected, the legendary Xuanwu Divine Beast will be awakened, then what kind of danger they will encounter, it is too difficult to predict, in order to minimize the danger coefficient at that time, from the beginning of Nakolulu's action, everyone began to prepare, for the possible battle to accumulate energy.
After a full ten minutes, Nakolulu finally stopped, raising the temperature around her to the spring temperature that no surprise required, but unfortunately, it had no effect, and everyone had to give up helplessly. However, just as they were about to leave disappointed, Wuqi spoke up again, making a somewhat excessive request.
"Lulu, please try again. I know that this may be a bit excessive, but I still want to give it another try, and maybe, raising the temperature a little higher may have a different result. Wuqi said.
"A little higher?"
Na Ke Lulu frowned, looked at Wuqi deeply, and soon showed an unhappy look, the spell just now made her physical exertion extremely great, originally thought that she could rest, but she didn't want Wuqi to continue to let herself carry out this meaningless spell, and said incomprehensibly: "Slug, now the temperature is already the temperature of spring."
Even if the Xuanwu Divine Beast really hibernates here, it should wake up, right? But we didn't feel any fluctuations in the breath of life at all, so it shouldn't be here at all. This time, you think wrong, accept the reality. There is no point in continuing to raise the temperature, it is just a waste of our time. ”
This statement was immediately echoed by the others.
However, Wuqi was the only one who did not accept it, and he made the same request to Nakorulu again, saying, "Lulu, please." Try again. I thought about it again, perhaps, the normal temperature is useless for the Xuanwu Divine Beast.
Because it is a basalt, the awakening temperature may be different from that of ordinary animals. Ordinary animals may wake up in the spring, but Xuanwu, it may be summer?
Hearing this, Na Ke Lulu's heart suddenly became even more unhappy, and her face showed an undisguised dissatisfaction, but she really knew Wuqi too well, and she knew that Wuqi had said that when it came to this, if she didn't agree to the other party, the other party would never give up, and the only way to make Wuqi give up was to make another meaningless attempt.
Only when Wuqi personally confirmed that this last attempt was also meaningless, would Wuqi give up.
As soon as she thought of this, Na Ke Lulu was reluctant in her heart, but in the end, she nodded reluctantly and replied, "Okay." Then I'll try again. If it doesn't work this time, you can't be a scoundrel anymore!
"Good. Wuqi nodded gratefully. (To be continued......)
