Liu Hong got up from the ground, dusted himself off, and said, "As soon as I got on, I felt a force pressing down on me. I couldn't resist it with my strength, so I fell down in a daze. I guess there's some kind of restriction."
"Did you see clearly what was happening behind the hall?" Taoxiang frowned and asked.
"I can't see anything. There's a layer of gray fog between us. The situation is similar to that over there." Liu Hong shook his head and pointed to the gray fog in the square behind him.
"Since it's an experience, they won't give us any loopholes. We'd better just try our best to pass it." said Master Gui Teng.
"Fellow Daoist Gui Teng is right. We are here to pass the level, so we'd better not think about taking any unorthodox paths." Taoist Wanshui agreed.
"Then how about asking the two Taoist friends to explore the way first?" Tian Sanqi said with a wry smile.
"My cultivation is low, and I am not as good as Fellow Daoist Tian in terms of magical powers and luck. If we really need to explore the way, it would not be my turn." Zhenren Wanshui said with a smile.
"Everyone, I think this city gate is wide enough. How about we go in together? With more people, it will be easier to deal with any accidents." Yan Lie frowned and said when he saw this.
"Okay." Shen Luo was too lazy to argue with them, so he asked Master Gui Teng to respond first.
The others also expressed their support.
So a group of people stood in a row, stretched out their hands, and a strong fluctuation of magic power surged from their bodies. They began to exert force at the same time to push the two huge city gates.
"Boom boom"
Following a dull sound, the two huge doors gradually moved inward and opened.
It was quite different from the scene when the door was opened before. There was no fog obscuring the hall at all. The light was abundant and the furnishings inside could be seen at a glance because there was almost nothing inside.
Several people walked into the hall, and the door at the back closed with a heavy friction sound.
Shen Luo was alert and focused, controlling Master Gui Teng to walk among the people. He always followed beside them and blocked half of his body to prevent any unexpected situations from happening.
He observed the ground carefully and found that it was covered with diamond-like patterns with many small hollow holes in the middle. It did not look like any kind of array pattern.
"Did the clan leader lie to us? Where are the soul-generating pillars? Aren't they just ordinary stone pillars?" Liu Hong checked the pillars in the hall and found nothing special about them.
"Maybe there is some kind of deception hidden in it." Li Biao said.
"That's easy. Just smash them all. As long as the Soul-Growing Pillar is hidden among them, why worry about not being able to find it?" Liu Hong said with a smile.
"Don't act rashly. Since this hall is the Soul-Giving Gate area, there must be mechanisms to test you. If you accidentally trigger one, you'll be courting death." Tian Sanqi scolded.
"It's none of your business what I want to do." Liu Hong couldn't help but curse. He was just joking, but after hearing what Tian Sanqi said, he suddenly felt unhappy.
When Tian Sanqi heard this, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but after glancing at Yan Lie and Master Wanshui, he held back.
Shen Luo ignored them and controlled Master Ghost Vine, concentrating on carefully exploring the surroundings.
However, he did not find anything unusual wherever he looked. The entire hall looked like an ordinary palace, without even a secret door.
