Chapter Twenty-Five: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow

One month is enough for mortals in the secular world to happen many things that change their fate, but for monks who have no time to practice, it is just a flick of a finger!

After nearly a month of running around, rain and wind, the two finally arrived at Yunmengze Dongting Lake seven days before the arrival of the octagonal Xuanbing Grass flowering period.

The Dongting Lake, which is a vast expanse of blue water, is breezy and the water is not rippling.

Above the lake, a drizzle of rain gently blows on the surface of the lake, blending into the calm water.

"Little worry-free, why do I feel a little weird here?" Ruotong looked at the seemingly calm lake below, a trace of worry suddenly appeared in his hazy eyes, and at the same time said to Wuwu in front of him.

"Since Senior Sister thinks that the lake is abnormal, then let's not enter the lake for the time being!" Wu Wu noticed the worried look on Ruotong's face and replied.

"Well, there happens to be a pavilion in the west, let's go there first and take a look!" Ruotong didn't know when he had already dispersed his divine sense, and found a three-story pavilion on the west side of Dongting Lake.

After hearing this, his eyes looked to the west, and he suddenly saw the pavilion in the west. Then he said softly to Ruotong, "Okay! Senior sister, hurry up!"

"Hmm!" Ruo Tong tightened the slender jade hand that was holding the waist of the worry-free tiger again, and then said to the worry-free: "It's okay!"

After hearing the sound, the seal in his hand changed, and the giant peachwood sword under his feet suddenly turned into a dazzling red light, flying towards the three-story pavilion on the west side of Dongting Lake!

After a few breaths, the red light came to the three-story pavilion in the west of the lake.

"Little worry-free, look at the railing outside the third floor of the pavilion!" Ruotong stretched out a jade hand to cover the forehead on the head of the mantis, and said to Wuwu.

Hearing the guidance of the senior sister, Wu Wu focused his eyes on the vermilion corridor outside the third floor of the pavilion.

A few superficial scratches appeared on the vermilion wood paint on the exterior of the railing, and there were some scattered small wood chips on the floor of the three-story pavilion!

"Someone fighting on the third floor of the pavilion?" said Sanssouci as he seemed to understand.

"It should be like this! The promenade is obviously a strangulation mark left by the rope that pulls the heavy object and stays on it for too long!" the intelligent and attentive Ruotong patiently explained.

"Let's go inside first!"

"Hmm!"

Immediately, the true element in Ruotong's body flowed, and a burst of dazzling purple light erupted, and the figure suddenly disappeared from the peachwood sword, and instantly appeared in the center of the three-story pavilion.

Worry-free saw Senior Sister Ruotong appear in the three-story pavilion, and then she also did a somersault and landed lightly beside Ruotong.

Then he put away the magic trick in his hand, and the tiger's mouth opened, and the giant peachwood sword suddenly turned into a two-inch-long red wooden sword at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a small red goldfish, and gradually swam into the carefree tiger's mouth!

Only then did he put away his exercises and asked Senior Sister Ruotong, who was carefully observing on the side, "Could it be that someone is taking the lead in front of us?"

"Well, maybe there is more than one side!" Ruotong picked up a small piece of fallen wood chips from the ground, and calmly analyzed.

"So what's next for the two of us?"

"What do you think?"

"Senior sister, it's better for you to make up your mind! You have always been smarter than me, you are too lazy to use your brain, just be responsible for protecting you!"

"Giggles, yes, I want you: always by my side, never leave!" Ruotong heard the carefree answer, smiled coquettishly, and then said.

"Yes, my good sister!"

"Since someone has already entered the bottom of the lake before the two of us, and there is more than one monk, then you and I might as well plan and quietly follow behind them, with a praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind!" Ruo Tong said leisurely.

"It's up to Senior Sister!" replied without worry.

"These are two high-level invisibility talismans! Daddy forced it on me, at first I thought I wouldn't use it, but I didn't expect to use it!"

After Ruotong finished speaking, he took out two yellow talismans from the storage ring, on which were engraved with ancient mantras in cinnabar. She then handed a yellow talisman from her left hand to Sanssouci in her hand.

Immediately afterwards, the two of them clenched their left hands into fist marks at the same time, pinched the yellow invisibility charm between the two fingers of their right hands and turned into a palm shape to tightly hold the fist marks of their left hands, and at the same time shouted softly: "Wow!"

Worry-free and Ruotong suddenly appeared two circles of arc-shaped ripples around their bodies, and in the blink of an eye, from their feet up, they gradually disappeared into the three-story pavilion in the west of the lake......

In the dungeon, there is a green grass that is almost half a person high.

Two figures, one red and one white, walked cautiously on the grass one after the other.

In the red figure, the third prince and Xu Qianhu and the five subordinates of the Jinyi guard looked around cautiously!

In the white shadow group, Princess Taiping, An Qin and Shui Qilin, and the six women of the Snow Phoenix Palace were a little calmer.

After more than a month of continuous exploration, the two forces of the Three Princes and Princess Taiping have entered the fourth floor of the underground palace. Both sides also gained something in the dungeon, but they also paid the price of continuous casualties.

Especially in the weird grass of this fourth layer, in the face of the green tentacles that attack from time to time, the depths of the souls of both parties will involuntarily bubble up with bursts of cold air!

Every time the green tentacle appears, it will sweep away a woman from the Jinyi Guard or the Snow Phoenix Palace!

Although the personnel of the two forces have already turned into back-to-back defenses, they can't prevent the elusive green tentacles from attacking again!

What's even more maddening is that no matter what kind of spells are used by the two people, or any magic weapon is used, all kinds of attacks have no effect on the green tentacles!

The green tentacles are in the half-human-high grass, and they are even more advantageous, and they are like shadows and wind!

"Whoa—"

There was a strange noise on the north side of the grass.

"Attention!" Princess Taiping reminded cautiously as she stared cautiously into the grass to the north below.

An invisible force quickly squeezed the lush artemisia grass to both sides, and at the same time, it continued to wind towards the three princes in front of them!

"Ahh

The lower body of a brocade guard on the periphery immediately seemed to be instantly wrapped in an ink-colored tongue!

The three princes reacted and were about to come to the rescue.

"Save—"

Before the brocade guard finished speaking, he was quickly pulled back by the green tentacles, and disappeared into the grass like the world evaporated!

The green tentacles appeared and disappeared again and again, but left behind a wide but long and curved road!

On each clump of road, there was a dark green saliva-like juice remaining......

Just when the people on both sides were frightened, the grass in the west shook again!

The three princes and Princess Taiping immediately turned their eyes to the grass behind!

An Qin's mind moved, and the water qilin beside him immediately opened its mouth, forming a ball of blue light in a moment, and turning into a dazzling blue light, shooting towards the moving grass!

On the moving grass, a two-foot-long red light suddenly flashed, shooting towards the flying blue ball of light!

"Bang-" The blue ball of light seemed to hit an iron shield and bounced back into the grass to the south!

"Boom-"

After a loud bang, there was suddenly a bottomless hole in the grass to the south!

The light ball was originally shooting at the abnormal grass, and two figures, one black and one purple, appeared out of thin air in front of Princess Taiping and the three princes......
