The mountain behind Xuanji Mountain was still quiet, but soon this tranquility was broken by the heavenly fire, and the whining of the heavenly fire could be heard for miles.

He reluctantly followed behind Han Ai's back and said, "Seventh Senior Brother, why does Xiuzhen have to retreat? Dao Jun has said that Dao Law is natural, isn't forcibly retreating against the core cultivation concept of Dao Law Nature?"

Han Ai glanced at Tianhuo with disdain, and said in a dumb voice, "The matter of the retreat was promised to Master by yourself, and it is too late to regret it now." Besides, with your inertia and casualness, without any coercive means, will you cultivate seriously? If you continue to mix like this, the three generations of disciples will also catch up with your cultivation!"

Tianhuo looked at the sky and sighed: "As soon as you enter the Dao Gate, it is as deep as the sea, and it has been a hundred years since you looked back on the retreat!"

Han Ai corrected seriously: "It's not that exaggerated, it's only ninety days, senior brother, I can retreat for a maximum of one hundred and eighty days at a time! As long as you cultivate wholeheartedly, time will really pass in a flash."

For 90 days, no one will come to disturb you, and you will not be able to get out of the retreat! ”

Tianhuo walked with Han Ai through the Eighth Senior Brother's medicine garden in frustration, and walked towards a mountain cliff in the distance.

Tianhuo saw the long courtyard not far away, and suddenly shouted: "Senior Brother Eleven, come out and see the little brother, or you won't see me in three months!"

Xia Yi's cold voice came: "Little junior brother, no one in the back mountain wants to see you! You just go to the Xuanji Cave to cultivate honestly, don't cheat and play tricks, if you dare to go out of the customs without permission within three months, I don't mind shooting your hands and feet!"

Tianhuo looked at the cliff in the distance, and then looked at Xia Yi's residence, this distance was indeed within Xia Yi's best range.

Tianhuo's face was a little pale and said, "Senior Brother Eleven, don't be so ruthless, right? I'm just a retreat, and you still have to guard outside, are you afraid that I will escape?"

Xia Yi laughed out loud: "This is Master's wise decision, Master said that you lack perseverance and perseverance, if you really want to escape, the Cave Mansion Spirit Weapon will not be able to trap you, so let me keep an eye on you more these days!"

If you dare to run away without permission, you're welcome to be a brother, and when the time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless~. ”

Tianhuo squeezed out the word "beast" from between his teeth, made a lewd gesture towards Xia Yi's house, and then turned his head and left.

The green cow in the cowshed in the distance and the gray kite on the wooden frame outside the shed glanced at each other, their eyes were full of consternation and distrust, and sure enough, the unreliable young man in front of him was Tianhuo, but where did the Tianhuo master who was radiant on the stage that day go?

Xuanji Cave is not as tall as the name sounds, the entrance of the cave is on a cliff wall in the back mountain of Xuanji, there is a very hidden cave entrance five or six zhang from the ground, the entrance of the cave is covered by shrubs and green vines, if you don't look carefully, you will only think that it is a crack in the stone wall.

Han Ai jumped up the cliff, climbed a rock with his hand, and pushed away the vines that fell on the entrance of the Xuanji Cave, the entrance of the cave was not big, only six feet high, Han Ai entered the cave as soon as he was short, and Tianhuo had to follow into it.

At this time, Han Ai was waiting in the cave, holding a glowing night pearl in his hand, illuminating the ** part of the cave, which was still very short here, and could only bend over and walk forward, and the aura in the cave was not much richer than outside the cave.

Han Aimo silently led the way in front, walked more than ten zhang, turned two nearly ninety degree turns, and walked down nearly fifty steps, before the cave began to become open, allowing people to walk upright normally.

At this time, the aura in the Xuanji Cave became abundant, at least twice as strong as the outside world, which lifted the spirits of Han Ai and Tianhuo.

Han Ai groped on the cave wall for a while, found a mechanism, pulled it gently, only to hear the sound of "boom", and the cave walls on both sides actually emitted a pale yellow light, illuminating the entire cave a lot, and a long, downward corridor appeared in front of him.

Han Ai walked all the way down with Tianhuo and walked far away, and Tianhuo estimated that it had already reached a deep place below the ground at this time.

Finally, the two of them walked to an open place, and there was an underground cave that was more than ten zhang high and dozens of zhang wide.

The concentration of aura here is much richer than just now, and the ground of the cave ** has obviously been leveled, and in the middle of the position, according to the pattern of the Big Dipper, seven pillars made of whole spirit stones have been buried in advance, only counting the part above the ground, and the spirit stone pillars are also three feet high and two feet wide.

Han Ai said to Tianhuo: "Little junior brother, take out the Qinghua Hall and put it on the spiritual stone pillar of the Heavenly Power Position. ”

Tianhuo took out the bronze hall model from the Qiankun bag, solemnly placed it on the Heavenly Power Position Spirit Stone Pillar in the middle of the Big Dipper, and then Han Ai took Tianhuo back into the Yongdao.

Han Ai activated a mechanism in the corridor, and first the spirit stone pillar of the Heavenly Power Position sent out a pillar of light that reached the top of the cave, and this pillar of light completely enveloped the small bronze hall in the pillar of light.

Immediately after that, the spirit stone pillars in the six positions of Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang also emitted the same pillar of light, and the seven pillars of light placed by the Big Dipper illuminated the entire cave as bright as day.

And the small bronze hall also began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually the material of the small copper hall began to change from bronze to the color of bricks, tiles, wood and stone of a normal palace.

The palace quickly became larger, and it was steadily pressed against the seven spirit stone pillars, and the spiritual power in the spirit stone pillars was poured into the palace more, and the entire palace was as bright as transparent.

Soon the outer wall of the main hall reached the mountain wall around the underground cave, and the light curtain outside the palace fluctuated several times in a row, trying to become bigger, but the underground cave ** did not have more space to accommodate the palace, and the rise of the palace stopped.

A burst of white light flashed, and the seven spirit stone pillars no longer emitted dazzling light, but slowly transmitted spiritual power to the palace.

At this time, the copper hall had become a real palace, but because of the limited space in the cave, the size of the palace was much smaller than the actual size, and Han Ai led the heavenly fire towards the gate of the palace.

When the two of them approached the palace, a strange force that could distort time and space gradually reduced the bodies of Han Ai and Tianhuo so that they could match the size of the palace.

When Tianhuo and the others walked to the gate of the palace, the palace had become a majestic palace with a height of more than ten zhang and a width of hundreds of zhang in their eyes, and the entire palace radiated golden light outward.

The main entrance of the palace is nine feet and nine feet high, and there are eight red lacquer columns on the left and right sides of the palace gate, which are eight feet high and eight feet high, and the palace gate, the columns and the yellow palace wall are topped with royal cornices.

The golden glazed tiles on the cornices shimmer with dazzling light, contrasting the huge hall gate and the thick pillars with a more majestic atmosphere.

The golden dome, yellow walls, red doors, columns, copper nails, iron rings, and two bronze lions in front of the palace gate are eight feet high, all of which make this palace look particularly solemn and magnificent, so that the people standing in front of the palace can't help but have a sense of awe.

On the gate of the palace, there is a plaque with gold edges on a black background, and there are three large gold lacquer characters of "Qinghua Palace" written on it.

Han Ai walked to the front of the hall door, bowed deeply, said offended, and then pushed the huge hall door, but he didn't expect the two eight-foot and eight-foot-high doors of the hall to slide open silently as if there was no resistance at all, Han Ai was not on guard, his upper body leaned, and he almost tripped over the high threshold in front of the temple gate.

Fortunately, Han Ai gently patted the threshold of the main hall with his palm, and jumped into the main hall with a little bit of strength to stand firm, he turned around and smiled awkwardly.

Tianhuo followed Han Ai into the hall, this is a huge main hall, ten zhang high, nearly thirty zhang wide, more than 100 zhang deep, the whole palace is decorated with gold and magnificence.

The entire interior of the main hall is supported by a number of golden pillars, each of which is engraved with a whirling and coiling golden dragon, which is particularly magnificent.

There are jade steps every ten zhang in the depth direction of the main hall to raise the entire hall by one foot, standing at the door of the hall need to look up to see the carved dragon throne directly above the main hall and the huge shadow wall screen behind it.

In the middle of the royal road is paved with a scarlet carpet with marble floors on both sides of the carpet, which is supposed to be the place where civil and military officials of all levels stand when they participate in court meetings.

Further outward, on both sides, there are all kinds of ritual vessels, sacrificial vessels, mainly bronze utensils, there are tripods, bells, towers, axes, smokers, copper chariots and horses, copper warriors, bronze lamps, etc., all of which are extremely old and rusty, adding a sense of solemnity.

In addition to the bronze ritual vessels and sacrificial vessels, there are various legendary Rui beasts carved by white marble, such as Pixiu, dragon, phoenix, unicorn, turtle, deer, lion, tiger, elephant and rhino.

Then there is a circle of spiritual springs around the inner wall of the main hall flowing slowly, the water surface is full of spiritual mist, and the white marble relief on the inner wall of the main hall is all kinds of flowers, vivid, ingenious.

The carvings are not colored, the calyxes are white, with a translucent sheen, as if they have a color against the golden ceiling of the roof and the spiritual mist below.

The entire hall was magnificent, solemn, and the aura here was so thick that it was about to turn into water, and Tianhuo didn't dare to inhale hard, for fear that he would be choked by such a thick aura.

The only thing that can be criticized about this palace is the lack of life in the main hall, and there is not a trace of life.

Han Ai and Tianhuo were both shocked by the scale and decoration of the Qinghua Palace, Tianhuo swallowed and said, "Senior brother, you won't let me retreat alone in such an empty hall for ninety days, right?"

In addition to the strong aura, there is not even a place to sleep here! You can take a bath in the spiritual spring, but what is unbearable is that there is not even a toilet here!"

Han Ai was also a little unsure: "Master didn't look like this inside the Qinghua Hall with me! Besides, the Qinghua Hall has always been in your hands, you should know the situation here better than me?"

Tianhuo said with a depressed face: "Seventh Senior Brother, you can quickly give me a way, or I will sleep on the carpet, meditate on the dragon chair, and when it is convenient, I can just find a stone statue behind it to solve it! If you are not afraid that this spiritual weapon will be wasted, I will do it!"

Han Ai looked around, but he really didn't find a suitable place to live, so he had to ask, "Little junior brother, do you have a tent and bedding in your Qiankun bag?"

Tianhuo also looked around and said, "Yes, Senior Brother Seven, what do you mean? Do you want me to lay the ground here for ninety days?"

Han Ai had already begun to quietly retreat, and when he heard Tianhuo ask, he immediately turned around and ran outside the hall gate, and did not forget to use the copper whistle against the Adam's apple and said, "Little junior brother, Master only asked me to send you into the Cave Mansion, as for how you live, he didn't say anything!"

Then I won't disturb your cultivation, I'll go out and help you close the cave, and I'll see you in three months!"

Tianhuo was so angry that his face turned green, and he turned around and chased: "Seventh Senior Brother, you are too unfriendly, stay with me!" After speaking, he chased after him with his teeth and claws.

This place is only more than a hundred zhang away from the palace gate, and the speed of the two people is very fast, and they have reached the last jade step in an instant, and they are less than ten zhang away from the palace gate.

Tianhuo roared: "Bah, don't leave me yet!"

After speaking, he jumped into the air and threw a large number of charms, but this charm did not fly towards Han Ai, but shot towards an elephant carved in stone on the side of the jade steps.

At the same time, Han Ai also snorted coldly, and a cyan sword light flew quickly towards the stone elephant with a wave of his hand.

Han Ai's flying sword came first, and a sword slashed off the head of the stone elephant, and a large handful of flame talismans from Tianhuo just flew in and exploded in the air, and a huge flame enveloped the space behind the stone elephant.

I saw a crimson figure fly out of the flames like lightning, flash behind another stone statue, and then disappear without a trace.

Tianhuo shouted violently: "Where are the demons, sneakily hiding here?" but the silence in the main hall returned to it, as if nothing had happened.

Han Ai and Tianhuo looked at each other and chased after each other.
