Volume 1 Sage Academy Chapter 22 Canghuo Underground Palace
No one would have thought that a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy would really have to go to the dangerous Canghuo Underground Palace.
Zhou Ping was aware of the Flawless Soul Seed and the inheritance of the Tang Holy Emperor, but he felt that it was up to Zhou Ping to comprehend it, and he only needed to be his guide on the road of life.
But now, when the heritage that Zhou Ping has precipitated for so long really comes in handy, even he didn't expect that he already has a strong capital that leaves ordinary people far behind.
The strange ability to understand the language of beasts, the most mysterious flawless soul species in the world, the practice notes and exercises of the Tang Shenghuang, the yin and yang techniques that he gradually comprehended from the chess game, and the great opportunity to enter the artistic conception of the unity of heaven and man twice, and to be recognized by the true yuan of heaven and earth.
It can be said that it is difficult to have anything that others have to chase all their lives, and now these things are all imposed on Zhou Ping, it is conceivable that if Zhou Ping grows up, it will definitely be an existence that has nothing in the world!
"Have you really decided?" Chu Li helped Zhou Ping tidy up his clothes repeatedly, and asked in a deep voice, "Although I am very worried about Chu Ci's safety, if you feel that something is impossible to do under the underground palace, you will immediately retreat, and we will think of another way, understand?"
Chen Bi'an repeatedly observed on the side, deducing the situation inside the Canghuo Underground Palace, and tried every means to minimize the danger of Zhou Ping's trip.
"Don't worry, Uncle Chu. Zhou Ping's eyes were extremely resolute, "I will definitely get the extreme flint on the side of the Burning Sky Flame, and Sister Chu Ci will definitely be fine!"
Chu Li's nose was sour when he heard this, and he hugged Zhou Ping fiercely in his arms.
"You kid must not have anything to do, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Uncle Zhou!"
Breaking free from Chu Ci's embrace, Mu Ruqing took Zhou Ping to the entrance of the Canghuo Underground Palace, although separated by a gate, Zhou Ping could still feel a scorching breath coming to his face.
"Have you memorized all the maps of the dungeon?" asked Mu Ruqing solemnly.
Zhou Ping nodded and replied, "After going down to the underground palace, go forward to the first intersection and turn left, and keep walking forward is the place where the Burning Sky Flame is." ”
"Although I am also a fire attribute soul species, I am far from qualified to enter the dungeon, so I don't know what is in the dungeon, if you encounter any danger, come back as soon as possible, don't be reckless!"
Facing Mu Ruqing's admonition, Zhou Ping nodded solemnly.
The door of the underground palace opened, and a wave of heat rushed to his face, Zhou Ping clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and walked into the underground palace.
Sister Chu Ci, brother will definitely save you! Wait for brother!
Seeing Zhou Ping'an enter the underground palace unharmed, the three men glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
Little one, the rest of the road is up to you!
As Zhou Ping gradually went deeper in the underground palace, the temperature around him gradually increased, but it was still within Zhou Ping's tolerance range.
After walking for about half an hour, Zhou Ping finally came to the first fork in the road, and he turned left without hesitation, but at this moment, the mutation suddenly rose.
The surrounding walls suddenly opened, and one by one wooden beasts came towards Zhou Ping, and although Zhou Ping tried his best to dodge, he was still scratched on his right arm by this strange beast.
"Trap Beast?" Zhou Ping's brain spun rapidly, and the teacher Chen Bi'an once told Zhou Ping that although this kind of thing seems difficult to deal with, in fact, all the behavior of the trap beast has a pattern to follow, as long as the law is found, this thing is a pile of broken wood and scrap metal, and there is nothing to be afraid of.
Having said that, more than a dozen trap beasts appeared in the small underground palace in an instant, and Zhou Ping had no chance to deduce the rules of their actions, and he didn't even have time to escape.
The speed of these trap beasts is extremely fast, but the strength is not too strong, and Zhou Ping's body was scarred by the claws of these trap beasts, but it was not fatal.
Zhou Ping tried to deduce the actions of the trap beasts in the chess game, and found that these trap beasts were indeed attacking according to the various robbery methods in the chess game.
In this way, Zhou Ping can preemptively deduce the movements of the trap beasts through the relationship between the position of these trap beasts and the position under his feet.
Sure enough, Zhou Ping used the Yang Fist in the Wuji Fist Method to destroy a trap beast through deduction.
The deduction was successful, and these trap beasts that had no wisdom and only knew how to attack according to specific rules were quickly solved by Zhou Ping one by one, and just when Zhou Ping felt that he had successfully passed the test, a huge trap beast suddenly attacked Zhou Ping from the ceiling of the dungeon.
Zhou Ping stretched out his arm to block it in a hurry, but he was still slammed on the wall.
The two arms slowly drooped, and it looked like they were broken.
The arm was scrapped, and Zhou Ping let out a painful wail, but the trap beast would not give him a chance to pounce on him again.
Whether it is speed or strength, this trap beast is far superior to Zhou Ping, and its attack method is not the chess game robbery method that Zhou Ping deduced before, and for a while, Zhou Ping, who was seriously injured, fell into a desperate situation.
"What should I do?" Zhou Ping's two arms were so badly injured that he couldn't use any strength at this time.
The trap beasts were culled again, Zhou Ping could dodge, and when he saw the many trap beasts that had been broken by him before, Zhou Ping suddenly thought of something.
"Since these trap beasts are the chess pieces in charge of attacking, then there must be a chessboard! The way to break the game is not to damage these trap beasts at all, but to be on the chessboard. ”
Zhou Ping was dodging the pursuit of this powerful trap beast while looking around in the narrow passage.
Just as Zhou Ping stepped on a certain floor tile, the body of the huge mechanical beast paused significantly.
"This is the eye of the game, then I will enter the game with this!"
Zhou Ping moved lightly, and the small underground palace became a fierce chessboard in his eyes at this moment.
"Lift, rush, top, break, kill......"
In the dungeon, every time Zhou Ping fell, a son fell in the chess game, stepping on yin and yang, and there was already a faint trace of Chen Bi'an's yin and yang atmosphere.
After Zhou Ping stepped on thirteen floor tiles in a row, the big dragon in the chess game was brutally captured and killed by Zhou Ping, and the machine beast also stood in place like a sculpture, not moving.
Blood slowly flowed down Zhou Ping's nose, Zhou Ping looked at the fire that was already clearly visible not far away, glanced back at the direction he went out, and continued to walk forward without hesitation.
If he goes out now, with his injuries, Chu Li and the others will definitely not let him go to the underground palace again. And it's also very likely that the huge trap beast will restart after a while, and if the chess eye changes at that time, it will be another hard battle.
When he recovers from his injuries and then goes to the underground palace, I'm afraid Chu Ci won't be able to bear it for a long time!
Dragging the injured body, Zhou Ping staggered and continued to walk towards the deepest part of the underground palace, and as he walked, he muttered, "Chu Ci, wait for brother, brother will definitely save you!"
The Burning Sky Flame burned violently, and Zhou Ping slowly walked in front of it, wanting to get a flint beside it.
At this moment, the temperature of the Burning Sky Flame suddenly increased, and Zhou Ping's clothes were burned in an instant, but he was not harmed.
Zhou Ping remembered what Emperor Mu Ruqing had said, the ultimate fire is a thing that conquers heaven and earth, and after hundreds of years, it is very likely that it has given birth to a trace of its own spiritual wisdom.
"Although the younger generation is not a descendant of the Mu Ru family, the younger generation has no malicious intentions, let alone the idea of accepting you for his own use, I am only here to ask for a flint that has been burning beside you for many years and has been infected by extreme power to save my sister, and I hope you can fulfill it!"
With that, Zhou Ping knelt on his knees and kowtowed three times towards the Burning Sky Flame.
After a long time, a bright red stone flew out of the flames and landed in front of Zhou Ping.
"Thank you seniors for your help!" Zhou Ping was overjoyed, but just as he wanted to pick up the flint, a problem arose.
His arms were ruined, he could not hold the flint at all, his clothes were ruined, and now he was naked, not even a bag or a pocket.
Zhou Ping looked at the red flint, and suddenly remembered in his mind when Chu Li took him home on the first day, and remembered the first time he saw the little girl who peeked at him from time to time at the dinner table.
She is eccentric and always bullies herself, but when she faces difficulties and dangers, she will always appear by his side as soon as possible, even if she can't help, she will whisper a word in Zhou Ping's ear.
"Don't be afraid, Zhou Ping, I'm here. ”
Zhou Ping opened his eyes, squatted on the ground and bit the hot flint with his teeth, the hot flint burned his lips almost instantly, and blood mixed with pus flowed out, Zhou Ping ignored it completely, and rushed towards the exit of the underground palace.
Don't be afraid, Chu Ci, I'm here!
