Chapter 172: Underground Palace!
"Ivy? Is there such a plant in the world?" Li Weiyi was very curious.
"Plant? Hehe! This ivy has gone beyond the category of plants. It has developed intelligence and can be called a 'demon'!" Gu Jin sneered.
"Monster?! Can plants also be 'monsters'?" Li Weiyi asked in surprise.
"Hehehe! Plants? Even a piece of stone, under certain circumstances, can become a 'monster'! Not to mention in this secret place?" Gu Jin frowned slightly, his soul always alert to those ivy vines.
The ivy vines around were swaying and dancing, ready for the next attack at any time.
"Hey!" Li Weiyi called out to Gu Jin who was standing beside him, "You are at least a strong man who can travel across the starry sky with your physical body! It should be easy for you to deal with this ivy, right?"
"What do you know!?" Gu Jin said with contempt, "Although the strength of the ivy is not strong, its vines are extremely tough. Even with my cultivation in the Star Realm, it is difficult to damage it in the slightest!"
"According to this statement, the strength of you Star Realm powerhouses is not that high!" Li Weiyi said with a sneer.
Li Weiyi's previous words were actually meant to inquire about Gu Jin's cultivation level, and now, his goal can be said to have been achieved.
“In the entire universe, the strong ones in the Star Realm have just reached the level of roaming the starry sky, and above the Star Realm there are the System Realm who dominate one side! Above those are the Domain Realm powers! Above the Domain Realm powers, there is the true ruler of the universe, the master! Boy! You still have a long way to go!” Gu Jin patiently explained to Li Weiyi the realms after the Star Realm.
"There are three more realms above the Star Realm!" Li Weiyi was very excited. After learning about the later realms, his vision suddenly broadened a lot.
At this moment, all the ivy vines suddenly retracted into the stone wall and disappeared.
"Huh? What's going on? Why did it go back? Is it scared?" Li Weiyi asked puzzledly.
"I don't know! This is the first time I've seen this kind of plant spirit. Come on! Follow me and take a look ahead!" As he spoke, Gu Jin walked deeper into the passage in front of him.
Then, Li Weiyi followed Gu Jin and walked into the passage.
After turning a corner, a bright scene appeared in front of Li Weiyi and the other person!
As they got closer, a magnificent golden palace embedded in the rocks appeared in their eyes.
Since we cannot see the whole of this magnificent palace, we cannot know its exact size. However, judging from its frontage of nearly 100 meters long and about 30 meters high, this magnificent palace must be big!
"Golden Light Palace!"
Li Weiyi looked up at the plaque in the middle and said.
"Golden Light Palace! This should be the residence of a powerful person!" Gu Jin muttered to himself and walked forward.
Li Weiyi followed Gu Jin to the gate of the palace again, looking at the tightly closed golden gate in front of him, wondering how to enter.
"Go push the door!" Gu Jin nodded at Li Weiyi.
"Um...should I push the door?" Li Weiyi looked at Gu Jin in confusion.
"Nonsense! Do I need to do this trivial matter of pushing the door myself?!" Gu Jin said in a cold voice.
"Uh... no! What I mean is, this is the residence of a powerful person after all. Isn't there any formation above the gate? Don't we need to break the formation?" Li Weiyi said, pointing at the golden gate.
"You also said that this is the residence of a powerful person. Who dares to come here to make trouble? As long as this powerful person is still alive, his will will exist in his palace, and no one can make trouble! And this mansion of a powerful person has obviously not been inhabited by a powerful person for a long, long time! Go and push the door!" Gu Jin said sternly.
"Okay!" Li Weiyi had no choice but to walk forward and push the door.
The golden door felt cold to the touch. Li Weiyi pushed hard, but the door didn't move at all. Then, Li Weiyi increased his strength.
Immediately afterwards, the golden gate suddenly trembled, making a rumbling sound.
Afterwards, as Li Weiyi continued to increase his strength, the golden door finally slowly opened.
When the door was pushed open, the inside of the palace was as bright as day and every object was clearly visible.
"Go in! Explore the way!" Gu Jin came behind Li Weiyi.
Li Weiyi had no choice but to step carefully into the palace.
"clatter!"
"clatter!"
"clatter!"
…
Li Weiyi walked very slowly, step by step. He released his original spirit, but it could originally cover an area of ten thousand meters in radius, but now it could only cover an area of one meter around his body.
Ever since Li Weiyi stepped into the palace, he could clearly feel a strong pressure approaching him.
Li Weiyi walked to the center of the palace with some difficulty. It could be seen that this was a courtyard with houses built on all four sides. Moreover, looking up to the top, he could see a huge night pearl rotating above, and the light was emitted from this night pearl on the top.
Looking at the houses around, there is a small sign on the door of each room, with the name of the room written on it. There are main halls, alchemy rooms, study rooms, wing rooms, etc., a total of 18 rooms.
"How was it? Did you feel any discomfort after entering?"
Gu Jin's voice came from behind. Li Weiyi raised his hand and waved it, saying, "I just feel a strong sense of oppression, nothing else."
"Oh?" Gu Jin frowned slightly and walked in.
Soon, Gu Jin came to Li Weiyi's side. He looked up at the huge night-shining pearl on the top, then looked at the houses around him, and then he said, "The will of the powerful still exists after tens of millions of years! It can be seen that this must be a great powerful person! I don't know which powerful person's mansion this is! According to ancient records, your Earth was at its peak tens of millions of years ago! Powerful people emerged one after another! It was a great force at the time!"
"Oh? Tens of millions of years ago? After such a long time, there are still ancient books preserved?" Li Weiyi asked in surprise.
"Any force with a powerful person wants to leave something behind, and that thing will be immortal after billions of years! And within my Tianxie Sect, there just happens to be ancient books about your Earth! Moreover, they were left by a powerful person! They will not decay after billions of years!" Gu Jin said as he observed the surroundings.
"Tianxie Sect?" Li Weiyi learned about another force in the universe. "Is it very powerful?"
"Nowadays, there are four major super forces in the entire universe! They all have their masters in charge! Among them, humans and monsters occupy two seats each! Under them, there are dozens of first-rate forces! And our Tianxie Sect is one of these first-rate forces!" Gu Jin said very proudly.
"How does it compare to the Earth tens of millions of years ago?" Li Weiyi asked with a roll of his eyes.
"Of course it's incomparable! According to ancient records, the Earth at that time was also a major superpower with a ruler in charge! There were also several powerful people! It can be said to be extremely powerful! However, there is no record in the ancient books why a major superpower would disappear and decline to the level of you! But, the whole universe is spreading that there is a terrible demon sealed on the planets in your area!" said Gu Jin.
"A scary demon? What kind of demon?!" Li Weiyi asked in surprise.
However, before Gu Jin could say anything, vines suddenly sprang out from the surrounding houses again. There were thousands of them, all of which wrapped around Li Weiyi and the other two.
Faced with thousands of vines, the two immediately took action again and knocked the vines away one by one.
However, this time, the ivy seemed tireless and kept wrapping around the two of them.
Although Li Weiyi and Gu Jin were not afraid of the entanglement of the ivy vines, Li Weiyi was still a little overwhelmed by the continuous attacks of the vines. On the other hand, Gu Jin was very relaxed.
After dozens of minutes, Ivy's attack was fruitless and it retreated again.
"Huh! They finally retreated!" Li Weiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the strength of this ivy is not much different from that of a human god, and is one level lower than Li Weiyi, there are too many vines of the ivy, and each vine can exert a strength close to that of a super god. Thousands of vines are equivalent to thousands of super gods! Although Gu Jin took on most of the attacks, there were still more than 200 vines besieging Li Weiyi.
More than two hundred vines are equivalent to more than two hundred powerful gods. Even with Li Weiyi's strength in the saint realm, it would be difficult to deal with them!
Fortunately, the ivy retreated on its own, which made Li Weiyi feel a lot more relaxed.
However, before Li Weiyi could relax for a while, a pentagram pattern suddenly lit up under their feet. In addition, a transparent light shield suddenly covered the two of them.
"Huh!? Oh no! This is a teleportation array!" Gu Jin's originally relaxed face immediately became nervous!
"Teleportation array? Where to?" Li Weiyi asked puzzledly.
However, Gu Jin ignored Li Weiyi's question, but slapped the transparent light shield with his palms.
However, no matter how hard Gu Jin tried, the transparent light shield showed no signs of breaking.
"Break the light shield quickly! Otherwise we might be in danger!" Gu Jin shouted at Li Weiyi.
"Huh? Is there danger?!" Li Weiyi was shocked, but without hesitation, he turned his palm into a knife and used his most powerful move "Innovation" again .
“Boom!” “Boom!” “Boom!”…
Li Weiyi and Gu Jin's moves hit the transparent light shield again and again, but they had no effect at all. They just made the transparent light shield shake slightly for a while.
Then, the transparent light shield suddenly emitted bright light, followed by a dazzling flash of light, and everything returned to calm. Li Weiyi and Gu Jin had disappeared from the spot.
Just after Li Weiyi and Gu Jin disappeared, the vines came out again, dancing throughout the courtyard, and then pushed the golden door closed again.
“Boom boom boom…!”
After a sound, the golden door closed again, and the entire underground space returned to peace again!
