Chapter 744, Underwater Temple

Several people drank hot water, and they all had strength in their bodies, and Han Lun finally didn't need to be supported by anyone. Everyone is grateful, and God is fortunate to have encountered such a hot spring. However, when everyone decided to pass through the hot spring, they couldn't help but have a hard time. The water is almost boiling water, and if you jump into it, you will burn to death. But again, this is the only way.

For a while, no one had any good way, the five of them came to the water's edge, and a burst of heat hit, and everyone couldn't help but fan the corners of their clothes, but their heads were still sweaty.

Linghu Yu'er said: "This is boiling water, and it will be cooked when you go in." I don't want to go in. ”

Han Lun smiled: "It's cooked, I'll eat you when it's cooked." Linghu Yu'er looked gray: "It's not serious." She looked left and right and said, "This puddle doesn't seem to be big, can't we pump the water out?"

Han Lun held back a smile when he heard this, Shi Yunyang shook his head seriously, and said, "The water here is either an underground undercurrent or ice and snow meltwater, no matter which one it is, there is no way to pump it out." ”

Linghu Yu'er said a stupid "Oh". Han Lun couldn't hold back, and suddenly laughed, causing Hu Yu'er to glare at him angrily and said, "What are you laughing at?"

"I've never heard of anyone being able to pump a hot spring clean. You're the first, don't look at this puddle, I bet you, the space down here must be ten times wider than this, right, Miss Ran?"

Ran Tianluo nodded and said, "Yes, although the space below is filled with water, it is filled with water, and my consciousness power can't reach the edge." This waterhole is supposed to be the entrance to this pocket terrain. ”

Luo Xiaocheng said: "Generally, such gourd-shaped or pocket-shaped terrain is either a natural karst cave, formed by natural erosion, or it is man-made, but in my opinion, it may be man-made here." ”

Linghu Yu'er wondered, "How do you know?"

Luo Xiaocheng pointed behind him and said, "You have all noticed this waterhole, but has anyone noticed the way we came?" Everyone followed his words, and it turned out that there was a dark stone step on the way to come, which was neatly paved. Because in this warm air, there is plenty of moisture, and some plants grow on the surface. Shi Yunyang walked over and pulled out the plant, only to see a large strange totem painted on the stone steps.

Standing up, he said, "It seems that this is really a man-made underground site. ”

Han Lun said: "This is not important, now the key is how to go down." Shi Yunyang was silent, and several people looked left and right, but they couldn't make up their minds. Ling Hu Yu'er sat down on the stone steps depressedly and said, "If only there was something that could isolate the heat." ”

Shi Yunyang's eyes lit up when he heard this, he suddenly remembered something, and suddenly said: "If you can make the ice and snow not melt, and use ice to make an outer armor, it will definitely be able to insulate the heat well." ”

"But how can there be ice that the hot water does not melt. Linghu Yu'er said stupidly.

Ran Tianluo said: "This may not be impossible. The seal knot in her hand changed slightly, and she saw a burst of light flash behind her, and the Nine Shadows Broken Soul Jiao slowly crawled out of the void. Linghu Yu'er said, "Venerable Qingyou may be able to help us with this. Don't forget, his ice is dark ice, and it doesn't melt that easily. ”

Shi Yunyang nodded and said, "That's easy to do." Venerable Qingyou said: "Actually, why use this method, even Xuan Ice can't last long in boiling water." You have your own artifacts on you, and this temperature is nothing. ”

Shi Yunyang was a little strange, but when he heard it talk about the artifact, he suddenly understood, and said, "You mean the Youxue Sword?"

Venerable Qingyou said, "This sword is tempered with the Extreme Cold Ice. The cold air in it is natural, and the temperature of these boiling waters cannot reach it. Shi Yunyang suddenly heard the words and said, "I see, thank you for your advice." He took out the Youxue Sword, gently wiped the blade of the sword, and then plunged the blade into the water, only to feel that the water around the blade suddenly became warm.

Overjoyed, Shi Yunyang said hello to everyone, and then jumped into the water with the sword, the Youxue Sword really played a great role, under the boiling hot water, Shi Yunyang didn't feel the slightest heat. He swam in the water for a long time, and found that it was indeed a pocket-shaped hole in the ground, as Ran Tianluo said, very open, but because the light in the cave was dim, it was difficult to see. So only after a while, Shi Yunyang resurfaced.

And when they saw him return, they were overjoyed. Shi Yunyang said: "Everyone follow me, don't scatter." ”

The group jumped into the water around him, which made Hu Yu'er excitedly say: "This is the first time in my life that I have jumped into boiling water, this feeling is really strange." ”

Holding their breath, everyone dived into the water, and then used their spiritual power to force the water away from their bodies, and a group of five people went deeper underwater.

As expected, there is a vast palace ruins under the water, because the light is dim, it is not very real, and you can only see that this complex is built on a gentle slope under water, and as far as the eye can see, there are majestic palace complexes. The palace complex is symmetrical on both sides, extending from the bottom to the top.

A few people approached the highest palace, only to see a huge sculpture carved on the square outside the palace, a giant turtle wrapped around a spirit snake, powerful and domineering, clearly is the statue of the Emperor Xuanwu.

The group landed on the square and walked towards the palace, but only after arriving did they realize that although the palace was built very real, it was only beautiful on the outside, and the whole palace was actually a huge stone sculpture!

The crowd was taken aback, and then swam downward, and there were several places where the palace was not a real palace, but a palace that had been made, and the houses were all solid stone. There is no sign of hollowness.

Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't imagine that someone had built such a huge fake palace here, which should be an underwater mountain range, and the whole mountain was carved from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain into such a lifelike huge palace complex. I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent in this way, and what is the purpose of this fake building complex like a cemetery?

Everyone didn't know, but there was one point, after arriving at this palace complex, the surrounding water temperature suddenly became much higher. With the protection of the Youxue Sword, everyone felt that the water was no longer cold, but had a slight feeling of warmth. Shi Yunyangzai carefully felt the change in temperature, and found that the heat of this temperature came from the highest palace.

Shi Yunyang couldn't help but wonder, it was a solid house sculpture, connected to the mountain, and he could only see the magnificent front hall of the palace, but there was indeed a strong heat coming from the back of the palace, as if it was constantly emitting from the stone cracks in the mountain.

Several people returned to the small square at the top, and fell in front of the Xuanwu sculpture, Shi Yunyang looked at the palace carefully, and saw that this palace was similar to the palace of the human world. It's just that the structure is more complicated, and the colored red lacquer has long been peeled off, leaving a gray stone pillar, like a huge tombstone.

Shi Yunyang was about to walk towards the gate, only to hear Han Lun shouting, "This is the organ! This is the organ!"

Shi Yunyang turned his head and saw Han Lun looking at the Xuanwu God Statue and said excitedly: "This Xuanwu base is circular, and there are traces of nesting in the circular grooves, as well as traces of friction, which are the scratches left by the edge of the statue that once rotated. I'm sure it must be a mechanism. ”

Shi Yunyang said: "Anyway, there is no other way, try what you said." How is this mechanism going to be opened?" Han Lun took two steps forward, reaching out to grasp one of the edges of the Xuanwu sculpture, but suddenly it was bounced away by a force. When the crowd saw this, they hurriedly pulled him back. The spiritual power in Ran Tianluo's hand had already been shot, and he quietly covered the entire statue in it. After a while, I saw a glazed light emitting from the Xuanwu statue, and golden characters floated out of it.

Ran Tianluo said: "You work together to turn this statue in half a circle. Everyone acted according to their words, and the statue of Xuanwu was turned in a direction by everyone's joint efforts. I saw that the eyes of the snake head and the turtle of the Xuanwu statue shot at the same time on a stone pillar on both sides of the palace. Suddenly, the whole earth began to rumble, the ground continued to tremble, and the flow of water in the entire body of water began to become extremely disordered. The figures of the crowd were constantly floating in the water. Only hand in hand, steady the figure. There is some danger on the ground, and such a huge tremor may cause a sharp turbulence in the current, just as an earthquake can cause a tsunami. So the group left the water and floated straight to the surface.

Less than a moment after everyone left the ground, they heard a loud noise behind them, and everyone turned around in unison, and the scene in front of them shocked everyone.

I saw that the whole mountain opened from the center like a door!

The entire underwater complex suddenly shattered in two, slowly concave down along the central axis, like a door slowly opening.

No, it should be said, this is a door!

The sculptures on this whole mountain, the palace complex, are just some decorations on top of this huge gate. This is a real open door, but the size of this door is really unbelievable. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, I'm afraid no one would have believed it.

Everyone was overjoyed, it seemed that after this giant gate, it should be the place where the Xuanwu Emperor lived, maybe it was also the place where the power of Xuanwu was in full bloom. Fearing that the gate would close again, the group did not hesitate any longer, and soon swam to the depths of the mountain.

In the depths of this mountainside is a hot stream, and the calorific value is so high that it has already exceeded the temperature of boiling water. But the crowd can bear it. The light in the belly of this mountain is extremely dim, whether there will be some dark red light, I don't know what it is. But of course, it can't be a living thing, and under such high temperatures, no life can survive for a long time, except for cultivators who know magic spiritual power.

But what is that dark red light?
