Chapter 64: Zhenlong Ancient Palace

The dense fog came strangely, but it was also inexplicable when it dispersed, and Shen Shi was also silent when he saw the surrounding area quiet again and fell into a gray and dead silence of the blood-devouring forest.

At this moment, if it was possible to turn back, he really wanted to take Xiao Hei and go directly, but in this mysterious place, there was clearly no way out, and the only direction that could travel was the road under his feet.

In the distance, there is a door.

A gate, a tall gate, to be exact.

Shen Shi took Xiao Hei and walked through this blood-devouring forest, and on the last part of the way, he looked around cautiously, but those blood-devouring demon trees seemed to be quiet, and none of them showed any intention of attacking them.

Until, they came under the gate.

It was a black gate, very high, very large, very wide, and it was not very real from a distance, but once he walked under the gate, Shen Shi's first reaction was to have a sense of insignificance like an ant. The two black doors were erected straight, higher than the tall blood-devouring trees around them, and at the same time extended to both sides, directly clinging to the blood-devouring demon tree and inserting into the woods, because of the obstruction of the leaves, Shen Shi couldn't see where this gate had reached, but it felt as if this demon tree forest was blocked by this gate.

Inside and outside the door, maybe there are two fundamentally different worlds.

Shen Shi suddenly felt a little nervous, since he had an accident at the foot of Gaoling Mountain and was washed here by the strange red river, everything around him seemed extremely strange, not only the rumored rare Blood Devouring Demon Tree turned out to be a forest, but also the dense fog that could devour all living beings emerged. And what could be behind this abrupt black door at this moment?

It's just that the current situation seems to be no way back.

Shen Shi took a deep breath, calmed down, and then walked to the huge black door, stretched out his palm, and tried to push the black door. Beside him, Xiao Hei watched intently, and he seemed to be a little nervous.

※※※

The black gate looked majestic, tall and heavy, but Shen Shi's tentacles pushed it open, and he didn't feel the slightest resistance, which made Shen Shi, who was originally nervous and vigilant, startled, and subconsciously took a step back.

The huge black door revealed a thin slit, there was no sound between advancing and retreating, and a little faint light flowed out from behind the door, Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, and finally walked forward, turned sideways, and walked in through the crack in the door.

At the eye, behind the door is a very tall road, the ground under the feet and the top of the head are about ten zhang high, including the wide walls on both sides, are made of pieces of blue-gray boulders, each of which has been cut into a square piece, arranged in turn, seemingly without any life, and has been extending into the depths of the passage.

Above the head of the passage, there was a brazier shaped like an ever-bright lamp hanging every other section, and the dim flame burned silently in mid-air, and the previous light was emitted from there, but Shen Shi glanced at the firelight, but he always felt that it seemed to be different from the flames he had seen on weekdays, but what was not quite right, and he couldn't say it all of a sudden.

Xiao Hei beside him suddenly called in a low voice, Shen Shi frowned, looked back, and saw Xiao Hei looking behind him, the black door that had just walked in had been silently closed behind him.

Shen Shi's face turned slightly pale, and he walked over and tried to grope on the black door for a while, but it seemed to be very easy to push the door just now, but at this moment, people behind the door seemed to be unable to find a way to open the black door at all, no matter how he pushed and pulled the black door, this tall door always stood still.

After a long time of work, Shen Shi gave up in despair, thinking to himself that this means that there is no entry and no exit? Turning his head to look at Xiao Hei standing aside, he saw that this little black pig looked quite calm, and was looking at the unfamiliar passage around him with some curiosity.

Shen Shi shook his head and said in a low voice: "Let's go, we can't get out, let's go ahead and have a look." ”

Xiao Hei snorted, as if to agree with him.

In the passage built by the blue gray boulder, the figures of a man and a pig were pulled out by the dim light A few writhing shadows, they carefully walked towards this strange and mysterious place step by step, Shen Shi soon found that the scale of the buildings here was far beyond his imagination.

Just the blue-gray passage behind the black gate, they walked more than a hundred zhang away and couldn't see the end, a brazier hung silently in the air, under the dim firelight, it always gave people a feeling that time had stood still here.

Shen Shi gradually felt a wave of uneasiness in his heart, although from the beginning he knew that he was only afraid that he had accidentally broken into an extremely dangerous and strange place, but looking at the strange and wide passage in front of him, and then thinking of the blood-devouring demon trees and strange fog outside the black gate before, maybe the root of all this danger and weirdness was just behind this black door, like the end of the labyrinth-like passage?

Ahead, a light suddenly flashed, and dozens of zhang away suddenly widened, and at the same time, a stone tablet more than five zhang high appeared, erected in the middle of the passage.

Shen Shi suddenly perked up, although he didn't know if this change was dangerous, but the blue-gray color that seemed to never change along the way was really unbearable, and Shen Shi even doubted that if an ordinary person stayed in that blue-gray passage for a long time, would he go crazy?

He took Xiao Hei to speed up his pace, and soon walked to the tall stone stele, and at the same time saw that on the front of the stele, four big characters were carved from top to bottom:

Zhenlong Ancient Palace.

When the four big characters were printed into Shen Shi's eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and then his body shook, with a bit of disbelief. In the present world, among the cultivators of the Hongmeng realms, who does not know the prestige of the four famous sects in the world, and in addition to the Lingxiao Sect where Shen Shi is located, the other four are also the Heavenly Sword Palace, which has always been good friends with the Lingxiao Sect, and the Yuan Shi Gate, which has been faintly regarded as the head of the Four Righteous by the people of the world for ten thousand years, in addition, there is also the last famous sect, which was founded by Ji Rongxuan, the second among the six saints of the human race in the past, second only to Yuanwentian, and the Lingxiao Sect located in the southern Canghai echoes from afar, and the mountain gate is in the Zhenlong Hall in the extremely northern snowfield of the Hongmeng main realm.

Zhenlong Palace, Zhenlong Ancient Palace, there is only one word difference between the two names, is this mysterious and strange place actually related to the Zhenlong Palace, which has been famous all over the world for tens of thousands of years?

Or is it just a coincidence?

Shen Shi stood in front of the stone stele, and fell into a little dazed for a while, but after a moment of deep thought, he still had some bias in his heart that maybe it was indeed a coincidence, the Zhenlong Hall was one of the four famous sects, and the scale and strength of the sect, including the power, were not under the Lingxiao Sect, if it was indeed a certain mountain gate hall of the Zhenlong Palace, it should not be such a dead scene, not to mention that there were those very vicious blood-devouring demon trees outside the ancient hall.

The little black pig suddenly came over at this time, but it didn't seem to be interested in the handwriting above the stele, but looked under the stele. Shen Shi was shocked by those four words at the beginning, but he didn't pay attention to anything else, and at this moment, he looked in the direction of Xiao Hei, and couldn't help but be stunned again.

Since ancient times, there are all kinds of legends in the Hongmeng world, and there are all kinds of strange beasts and monsters, among which there is a very special strange beast, the most famous image is shaped like a giant tortoise, carrying a hunched stone tablet, called Baxia. I don't know how many buildings have this kind of strange beast appearance, the image of the hunched stone tablet can be said to have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Shen Shi originally subconsciously thought that this place should also be a bully, but after taking a look at it at this moment, he suddenly felt that something was not right, and after a closer look, he was stunned to find that there was indeed a strange beast under the pressure under the huge stone stele, but it was not a tyrant, but a yin dragon.

Stone stele presses the Yin Dragon.

The inscription is Zhenlong.

Is this the name of the Ancient Dragon Palace of the Town coming from here?

Shen Shi looked at this stone tablet with some confusion, thinking to himself, could it be that in the depths of this Zhenlong Ancient Palace, there was really suppression of an ancient Yin Dragon that had only existed in legends since ancient times, and had never even appeared in the history books?

If that's the case, an ordinary Terran monk like himself would be like an ant in front of such an ancient dragon.

I was a little apprehensive in my heart, and when I looked at the passage of this Zhenlong Ancient Palace, I felt that it seemed to become more gloomy, Shen Shi sighed in his heart, bypassed this stele from the side, and glanced back by the way, only to see that the back of the stele was flat, and there was no other additional handwriting.

Zhenlong Ancient Palace...... Shen Shi suddenly thought in his heart, if it was an ancient dragon suppressed here, so it was called the Zhenlong Ancient Palace, why did the Zhenlong Palace, which is located in the north of the Four Righteous Famous Sects, take this name, could it be that under the Zhenlong Highness of the Extremely Northern Snow Plain, a dragon was also suppressed?

※※※

This kind of speculation is of course utopian and useless, the Zhenlong Palace has been ranked four for tens of thousands of years, and everyone today has long been familiar with and accustomed to this name, as for the origin, but few people have to investigate, and now maybe only the disciples in the Zhenlong Palace will know the origin of their name.

Shen Shi shook his head, no longer thinking about these somewhat illusory things, and now is not the time to think about these things. Walking through this stele, the passage in front of him suddenly opened up, several times wider, but in front of him was not just a passage several times wider, but behind this stele, there were three passages on the left, middle and right all of a sudden, and it seemed that each passage was exactly the same, and it was also made of blue-gray boulders.

Shen Shi stopped in astonishment, his brows furrowed, thinking to himself Is this really a labyrinth? Just looking left and right, he can't see the difference between these three passages, so he has no choice but to try his luck, he called the little pig, he hesitated for a moment, and then chose the middle passage and walked over.

Just walked a few steps, suddenly behind Xiao Hei screamed suddenly, Shen Shi looked back with a little surprise, only to see Xiao Hei in front of these three passages, it seemed that he was also a little confused, but he seemed to feel something, standing in place and refusing to move forward, but kept sniffing and sniffing in place, looking at the left passage for a while, looking at the right passage for a while, and finally even the middle passage would take a glance, as if he was hesitant.

Shen Shi's eyes lit up, in this maze and he didn't know if there was any danger ahead, if Xiao Hei could find something, it would be as important as charcoal in the snow. He hurriedly walked to Xiao Hei's side, stretched out his hand and gently touched his little pig's head, just looking at Xiao Hei's smell and smell, he couldn't be sure, Shen Shi couldn't help but ask:

"What's wrong, what do you smell?"

Xiao Hei's body paused, and suddenly lifted the hoof of his right front leg and tapped it lightly on the ground.

Shen Shi's face changed, his eyebrows were slightly raised, but he was a little surprised, and said, "What, you mean that there are people around here over there?"
