Magic world

Ito Cheng, who left the main hall, did not return to the harem to hang out with his women. Instead, he turned around and came to another heavily guarded palace room.

"I have met Your Majesty." Seeing Ito Cheng's arrival, the guarding soldiers immediately knelt down on one knee and lowered their heads.

"Get up." Ito Cheng said softly, "From now on, no one is allowed to come near this place without my order. No matter what happens inside, you don't need to pay attention to it. Just guard the passages. Do you understand?" ?”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The soldiers responded solemnly.

Then Ito Cheng also ignored them and walked into the hall.

The main hall is very large, covering more than 150 square meters, but there is no decoration inside. It is like a newly built empty hall. Only eight small ones, one big and nine bronze cauldrons stand quietly in the main hall. .

It is the Jiuding that has magical powers and represents the symbol of supreme authority and country!

"It's time to complete the steps that were not completed at the beginning." Looking at the Jiuding in front of him, Ito Cheng chuckled.

After talking about it, he palmed his hands and found a piece with a total height of about ten centimeters, divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part was carved with a ferocious dragon with superb craftsmanship, and the lower part was made into a square shape, with a length and width of eight centimeters, and the entire body was made of jade. The seal appeared in Ito Cheng's hands.

This object is nothing else, but an authoritative treasure that combines the destiny and beliefs of the two worlds' humanities - He's Wall.

As soon as this object appeared, it was like seeing a natural enemy. The Jiuding vibrated uncontrollably and made a low buzzing sound. At the same time, the body of the tripod glowed brightly and a gray mist emerged.

"Here comes the dragon!" Seeing this, Ito Cheng didn't dare to hesitate, immediately raised his hand and shouted in a low voice.

The next moment, there was only a "bang, clatter" sound. A purple air dragon invisible to the naked eye immediately flew down from the sky, penetrated the tile beams of the palace, and under the control of Ito Cheng, crashed into the Heshi wall in his hand.

In an instant, He Shibi lit up, blooming with magnificent light, and spontaneously flew up from Ito Cheng's hand.

I don’t know if it’s because of the sudden descent of the purple air dragon. The Jiuding, which was already ready to go, trembled slightly, and even the gray mist surging on the surface became sluggish.

And at this moment, the light of He's arm floating in the air lit up again, turning into a stream of light and flying over the Jiuding, projecting thousands of colorful rays of light towards the Jiuding cover like ribbons. down.

Jiuding, which was illuminated by the light belt, was slightly shaken. Ding's body also bloomed with a thick earthy yellow light. Then a distorted fuzzy space was created due to the collision of the two forces, enveloping He's Wall and Jiuding.

Seeing this, Ito Cheng, who was excluded from the space, suddenly felt something in his heart. He raised his hand to place a series of vitality restrictions around the hall, then sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and entered concentration, arousing the innate god. Through the connection between Jiuding and itself, Heshibi assists Heshibi to devour Jiuding from the outside.

Almost instantly, Jiuding's body trembled slightly again, and the halo on the surface quickly became much dimmer.

And Heshibi, as if he had his own spiritual consciousness, took the opportunity to shine brightly and released more power to press against Jiuding.

I don’t know how long it took in this indescribable confrontation, but suddenly, a new change began to appear.

At this time, I saw a slight light on the Jiuding Cauldron. Nine grotesque monster phantoms gradually emerged from the body of the tripod. In the thousands of rays of light emitted by Heshi's wall, they struggled and gradually rushed toward Heshi's arms.

These nine illusory monsters are the legendary Nine Sons of the Dragon! Judging from their performance when Ito Cheng stole the cauldron, it is not difficult to conclude that they are the beasts that protect the cauldron sealed in the cauldron! But now, they are drawn out by the power of Qihe Shibi, which can be seen from this. Jiuding is already on the verge of being completely swallowed up.

This pulling state lasted for more than a quarter of an hour, before the Nine Sons Phantom finally turned into nine boundless mists with an unwilling howl, and completely disappeared into the Heshi wall.

"Crack!"

The next moment, there was a sudden crisp crackling sound. Several fine cracks that were visible to the flesh suddenly appeared on the Jiuding that was blooming with brilliance.

Obviously, without the protection of the beast that protects the cauldron, Cai Zhi, who makes up the cauldron, can no longer withstand the things gathered on the cauldron, and begins to collapse.

"Click~Click~"

Then the cracks extended and quickly covered the entire tripod body. Then there was a muffled sound, and the nine tripods suddenly exploded and turned into dust that filled the sky.

At this time, the light around He's wall shook again, and like a whale swallowing water, it quickly sucked the nine clouds of light that appeared after the explosion of Jiuding into Xi's body. Then the light around He Shibi disappeared, and the colors changed freely in mid-air for a moment, and then turned into a stream of light and fell into Ito Cheng's hand again.

"Hey, I didn't expect such an unexpected gain." Ito Cheng said in shock as soon as he held the jade seal in his hand, a piece of information suddenly poured out of his mind.

There were two pieces of information that emerged in his mind. One was that He Shibi, who had swallowed the Jiuding, also had the ability of the Jiuding - that is, when holding it, he could feel the conditions in the mountains and rivers of the designated land. However, this scope is relatively small, limited to the land of Kyushu in China, and is still of no use to Ito Cheng. But the second one is different.

Probably because of swallowing the phantom of the Nine Dragon Sons, He Shibi actually has the ability to release the Nine Dragon Beasts to attack the enemy! Although it may not be very powerful, it does allow Heshibi, which in the past could only be used as a brick to hit people like Fan Tianyin, to have other means of attack. Even if Heshibi is willing to consume it, Heshibi will definitely The strange power existing in it can also combine the nine beasts into one, turning it into a blue dragon and delivering a powerful blow!

Although unless it was Ito Cheng who committed a crime, he would attack something like the Heshi Wall, which can already be regarded as a humane treasure, as an ordinary magic weapon. Under normal circumstances, you would never see that kind of scene, but this pair of Heshi Walls It has to be said that this is a great progress, which is gratifying.

"Just the Jiuding in the mortal world has this effect. I really don't know how far Heshibi will evolve if he swallows the real Jiuding." Ito Cheng, who carefully played with the Heshibi in his hand, sighed in a low voice.

Then he put his palms away and put the Heshi wall away. Then he waved his hand and pulled away the vitality restrictions placed in and around the hall, turned around and walked out of the hall.

"Greetings to Your Majesty." Just as when he came, the soldiers who saw him immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"How long have I been in?" Ito Cheng asked quietly.

"Your Majesty, five days have passed." The soldier general said.

"Five days...it won't be long." Ito Cheng said softly, "Okay. Let's disperse. There will be no need to guard this place in the future. Let's set up defenses according to normal procedures."

After saying that, he ignored the soldiers and turned around to leave the hall.

"Yes." The general said firmly.

…

On the other side, Ito Cheng, who left the palace, first returned to the harem. He spent a while with Zhao Ya, Zhao Ni, Zhao Qian, Wu Tingfang, Guo Xiuer, and Ji Yanran, whom he had not seen for five days, and then returned to the palace. Go to the front hall. He summoned all the ministers to deal with the documents that needed to be approved personally during his absence, and arranged the work of relocating and resettling residents from the seven places according to the original plan. Then he left the front hall and returned to the harem again. Completely immersed in the tenderness of women.

However, this state did not last long, only three or four days. Ito Cheng left the palace alone again, appeared in the vast Taihang Mountains, and began to explore the secret of the so-called Canglong Qisu.

"I hope it will be an interesting secret." As he walked slowly forward, Ito spread his mental power/spiritual thoughts and scanned the entire Taihang Mountains inch by inch like a radar.

Taihang Mountain is also known as Wuxing Mountain, Queen Mother Mountain and Nuwa Mountain. It is an important mountain range and geographical dividing line in eastern China. It is located at the junction of the land of Yanzhao and Qin, spanning the borders of the four kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Qin and Wei. The mountain range starts from the Xishan Mountain in Jishi, Yan State in the north, extends to Wangwu Mountain in the border area of ​​Zhao and Qin in the south, borders the Qinling Plateau in the west, and the North China Plain in the east. It runs from northeast to southwest and stretches for more than 400 kilometers.

Under Ito Cheng's scanning, the area of ​​more than 400 kilometers was quickly swept away, and then an underground palace hidden in the center of a valley deep in the Taihang Mountains appeared in Ito Cheng's mind through perception.

"That's probably where it is." Ito Cheng said secretly. Then a thought came to my mind. The next moment he appeared in the depression.

It was winter at this time, the daily temperature was very low, and the cold and humid air was not easy to evaporate. In addition, this place was in a depression, and it was still exposed to the sun, and the surrounding trees had dense branches and leaves, so it had not yet reached the freezing point. However, there has been a lot of frost in the valley, and the cold mist is filling the air, making the place look like a fairyland in the cold palace.

Ito Cheng took a brief look at his surroundings and walked forward along the route he sensed without stopping. Soon we came to a mountain wall covered with moss.

"I didn't expect to see illusions here."

Looking at the mountain wall in front of him that was completely evolved by illusion, Ito Cheng couldn't help but become more interested in the stone chamber and the secrets hidden in the stone chamber.

Then he stretched out his hand and casually broke the illusion in front of him. Immediately afterwards, a strange protruding stone appeared in front of Ito Cheng's eyes from the illusion that quickly dissipated.

Ito Cheng, who already knew what it was from his telepathy, stretched out his hand to hold the stone and twisted it slightly to the side.

The next moment, a series of "clucking" sounds suddenly sounded, and then a dark passage emerged from the huge stone door that gradually moved to the side.

"Puff, puff, puff, puff..."

Immediately afterwards, there was another continuous sound, just like phosphorus meeting air, and balls of flames burned spontaneously from the cave, illuminating the dark passage.

It has to be said that in some aspects, the wisdom of the ancients was incredible.

After the entire passage door was fully opened, Ito Cheng stepped into the passage and walked along the stone path toward the underground palace deep inside.

The passage was very long, hundreds of meters long. It took Ito Cheng a while to complete it, and then a very empty stone-cut hall that seemed to be two or three hundred square meters appeared at the end of the passage. .

The hall has a circular structure. There is a bronze door on the left, middle and right. Above the door guard, there are "Gate of Life", "Gate of Death" and "Gate of Life and Death" written in ancient bronze inscriptions. A few big words.

A coiled dragon is painted on the floor of the hall, with its head pointing towards the Gate of Life, its tail pointing towards the Gate of Death, and its lower limbs pointing towards the Gate of Life and Death. At the top of the hall, there is a colorful blue painting. Looking at the story, it seems to be the legend of King Wen of Zhou inviting Jiang Ziya to Lu Shang.

After looking around the hall, Ito Cheng withdrew his eyes and walked straight through the hall to the bronze door with three golden characters "Gate of Life and Death" written on it. He stretched out his hand and pushed... The door then slowly creaked with a sound. It opened, and then another dark passage appeared.

For Ito Cheng, who had already seen the night as day, this darkness was nothing, and he immediately walked into the passage with his head held high.

And the moment he walked into the passage, his surroundings immediately changed, from the original dark passage to a killing battlefield. At the same time, Itomoto himself also transformed into a soldier, appearing in On the battlefield, he was about to be killed by the ferocious enemy soldiers in front of him.

"Did it change to a phantom formation this time..." Ito Cheng, who casually swung the bronze sword chopped off by the enemy, said with a low smile. Then with a shock of mental power, he forcibly tore apart the image created by Huan Zheng and returned to the dark passage.

"The smell of Taoism is getting stronger and stronger." Ito Cheng muttered in a low voice as he looked up again towards the depths of the passage.

With that said, Ito Cheng took steps again and continued to go deeper into the passage.

This time, I didn't encounter the phantom formation again, but various traps and magical ambushes appeared one after another. Fortunately, it was Ito Cheng who came here. If it were Zhao Guo himself, he would never be able to pass through this extremely dangerous passage without a strong guard of No. 180.

In this way, despite the twists and turns along the way, Ito Cheng successfully walked through the mechanism passage and came to another small stone room.

The stone chamber is indeed not big, only about sixty square meters, which is really surprising to Ito Cheng who is used to seeing hundreds of square meters of space in this era. It is square in shape, with only a bronze door built on the wall facing the passage. In addition, the stone table in the center of the room is the only furnishing in the stone room, and an unknown stone with ancient inscriptions written on it. The animal skin lay flat on the table quietly.

Ito Cheng stepped forward and looked down at the words on the animal skin.

"After I left my words..."

There were not many words on the animal skin, just over a hundred words. With Ito Cheng's eyesight, he could read it almost instantly, but a look of astonishment could not be suppressed on his face.
