The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

Chapter 409 Underground space, the dark room of the Qi Palace

General Wang and the old man were walking in front of a row of ordinary wooden structure bungalows, which were neatly arranged along a straight path. Although the doors and windows of the house are made of wood, they have been carefully polished to give a smooth texture. There are black curtains hanging on the windows of each room, fluttering gently in the wind, giving people a strange feeling.

The exterior of this continuous row of houses features wide wooden corridors. It may have been a place for people to live when it was first used as a warehouse. Some flowers and green plants were placed there before, but they were removed by the soldiers when it became a barracks. It is now covered with black cloth, giving the house even less light.

Chen Subaru saw this row of rooms through Liangyi Tianbingjian and couldn't help but be curious. There appear to be items stored in these rooms that cannot be exposed to light.

General Wang has adjusted his emotions. Although the old man in front of him was unfathomable, he seemed to have no ill intentions. At this moment, the fear of the unknown in his heart turned into curiosity, and he also had many guesses about the purpose of these houses.

The old man walked to the last room in the row of houses and stopped. He faced General Wang and said, "Go in, everything you want to know is here."

When General Wang heard what the old man said, he bowed and walked towards the house. After taking two steps, he suddenly remembered something and turned around quickly to ask questions. However, the old man has long since disappeared. He turned around and thought again, thinking that maybe he had thought too much, so he continued walking towards the barracks.

The wooden door opened with a slight pull, and what he saw was darkness.

General Wang was originally leading a group of generals to patrol the camp in the daytime, but he did not bring any lighting equipment. Facing the darkness in front of him, he seemed a little hesitant.

Chen Subaru couldn't find any good solution for a while. Although he was unable to remotely transmit spiritual power to the sword body through mind-to-mind contact, the Liangyi Tianbing Sword was forged by the power of the five elements, and the sword body did not have independent five-element spiritual power. Therefore, relying solely on the sword itself, it can only perform some of the ice spells and cannot provide lighting.

Fortunately, although Chen Subaru cannot use the Liangyi Tianbing Sword to illuminate, he has the ability to see through darkness. Viewing the world from Sword Spirit Xueer's perspective is different from other people's. For swords, there is no difference between day and night.

Therefore, Chen Subaru communicated with Xue'er, causing the sword body to slowly float in front of General Wang, and emit a faint white light.

Although General Wang felt a little confused about this scene, he still roughly understood the meaning of the sword. So, he asked tentatively: "Do you want me to follow you?"

The white light of the sword flashed for a moment, and then began to move forward slowly. General Wang looked at the white light that was gradually disappearing. Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, he gritted his teeth and followed.

Chen Subaru discovered through Xue'er's perspective that the last house was actually connected to the house in front. The middle wall has been opened up and load-bearing beams have been reinstalled inside. There is nothing in the room, and even if you run from one end to the other with your eyes closed, you will not encounter any obstacles.

This made Chen Subaru feel a little weird. Since there is nothing in this row of houses, what's the point of making it so mysterious?

At this time, Xueer reminded: "Master, the house we are in seems to have a downward passage."

Following Xue'er's guidance, Chen Subaru found that there seemed to be a secret door on the floor. The reason why he didn't notice it immediately was because all his attention was focused on this row of houses that ran from front to back.

Xueer controlled the Liangyi Tianbing Sword to move toward the secret door, and then circled the outline of the secret door twice.

Under the weak spiritual light, General Wang seemed to have seen the secret door.

Although the room is blocked by black cloth, in such a wooden room, there is still a faint light entering. Logically speaking, General Wang should be able to see something clearly after getting used to the darkness.

However, the strange thing about this room is that even though the room is very empty and simple, no light can penetrate it.

General Wang could see nothing except the Liangyi Tianbing Sword, which was shining with spiritual light.

Therefore, Xue'er could only try to keep the sword body as close to the secret door switch as possible. Under the weak spiritual light, General Wang carefully touched the position of the switch and tried to open the secret door by feeling.

Fortunately, this secret door was not arranged by a monk, but an ordinary cellar door without any mechanism.

Although it is a bit heavy, General Wang is a warrior, and the weight of one or two hundred kilograms is not a problem for him at all.

After General Wang opened the secret door, the outline of the stairs could be vaguely seen below.

Xue'er reminded Chen Subaru at this time: "Are we going down?"

Chen Subaru thought for a while and said: "If the Qinglong Guard is working here, now that they know that I sent people to investigate, they shouldn't embarrass General Wang. We haven't found anything here yet, let's go down."

Xueer then controlled the Liangyi Tianbing Sword to float downward.

General Wang frowned, but he had the same idea as Chen Subaru: "We've already come, and if we go back without discovering anything, we'd be too cowardly. It's better to follow." So, he followed cautiously. Went down.

This staircase is not long. Soon, one person and one sword came to a passage with stone walls. There is a spiritual light lingering here. It is obviously a passage dug by monks and illuminated by spiritual weapons. Obviously, this is a place built by monks with some background.

Although the lighting problem has been solved, Xueer still floats in front of General Wang, guiding him forward. This is not an unnecessary move by Xue Er, but in a building built by monks, a mortal like General Wang is likely to be in danger. Xue'er protected him in front of her, not wanting this unreliable general to escape.

In fact, General Wang is not as miserable as Xueer thought. When enough trust is established, General Wang is also a person who can entrust his life to his allies. However, Xueer's actions did make General Wang feel a lot more at ease.

When they reached the end of the passage, Chen Subaru did not notice General Wang's expression. He himself was shocked by the scene in front of him. The door at the end of the passage has opened automatically, and he can directly see the scene behind the door.

Below where they were standing was a very huge underground space, full of spiritual power. There are dozens of independent blocks here, with many strange devices and various formations that are difficult to identify. People are constantly busy near those devices.

"Is this the strength of the Qinglong Weapon Palace?" Xue'er's exclamation made Chen Subaru wake up from the shock.
