Time passes by minute by minute, and the time for the Yiliang Secret Realm to appear is getting closer and closer.
Including Lu Bei, everyone was very curious about what secrets were hidden in the secret realm that had been silent for a thousand years, and what was the reason why the several powerful people in the Tribulation Period who were buried in the secret realm killed each other.
During this period, Jian Xiong Dugu tried to talk to Lu Bei several times, but was stopped by the Zhao brothers and sisters.
It was a bit surprising that Dugu was not as evil as the outside world said. He seemed to be very easy to talk to and not fierce at all.
In the dark cave, the cold yin energy gradually became thicker and slowly climbed to a critical point.
Everyone knew that the time for the secret realm to appear was approaching, and they all held their breath and waited for the last moment. The chatterbox Heart Madman stopped making any noise, and stood vigilantly beside Lu Bei, his eyes fixed on the Zhao brothers and sisters and Dugu.
When things reach their peak, they will decline; when yin reaches its extreme, yang will be born.
When the dense yin energy reached its limit, a warmth slowly emerged in the cave, and the silent deep pool gurgled as if it was placed on a fire, boiling at an extremely fast speed.
boom!!
Water splashed, steam filled the air, and the pool of water was swept away in an instant, revealing a hole deep in the ground.
The bottomless pit is extremely dark, and at its narrowest point, ten people can walk side by side, so it is not very crowded.
But what determines the size of space is never objective facts, but subjective human heart.
The passage is too narrow to accommodate everyone at the same time.
On Lu Bei's side, a group of people slowly retreated. Senior Brother and Sister Zhao stood still, blocking in front of Dugu, and watched them approach the deep pool.
Xin Kuangjun was very skilled and brave, so he performed a trap to enforce the law. He turned his back to Lu Zhou and Xuan Long's three men and jumped into the deep pit.
In the infinite darkness, a pillar stands tall, reaching the abyss below and supporting a stone platform above.
"Bloodline mechanism!"
Xin Kuangjun shouted loudly, but was quite disappointed that he didn't hear the crackling sounds of fighting above.
Lu Bei was also very disappointed. The teammates he matched with this time were too mature, and the Xuanlong trio were exceptionally calm. He was still waiting for someone to overturn the table and then fish in troubled waters.
Xin Kuangjun landed on the platform, took out a bottle of blood that might be from the prime minister's wife, or maybe even the prime minister himself, and poured it on the blood source mechanism.
Blood precipitated at the incision, the mechanical compass rotated, a ray of white light shot up into the sky, illuminating the upper wall of the cave, and cutting through a curtain of water waves and light.
The entrance to Yiliang Secret Realm.
The Madman leaped up, fearing that he would be the last one to arrive at the water curtain. He was surprised to find that he, who should have been the last one to arrive at the entrance, was actually the first one to arrive at the entrance.
Please, you are so rational that it makes me look stupid. Can you please be impulsive
The early bird catches the worm, and likewise, the early worm is caught by the bird.
Xin Kuang Jun is bold and careful, and he talks nonsense, but he is actually a very shrewd man. He knows that his strength is not the best among everyone. At least Lu Bei and Dugu are above him. He doesn't want to be an early riser, so he comes to Lu Bei with a smile.
"Master Lu, you are the most senior here, please go first."
"You are joking, Mad Lord. I have only been practicing for a year. In terms of age, you are all immortals. I am the youngest." Lu Bei laughed and refused. At the same time, he pulled She Xuan beside him, asking her not to be impulsive and not to jump in foolishly.
There is no need for that in the future. After upgrading as a tool, you no longer need to rely on your skills to make a living. You can just show off in front of the clan leader.
She Xuan had no doubts and left everything to the dead.
Xin Kuangjun and Lu Bei pushed each other around, one called him "Sovereign" enthusiastically, the other called him "Kuangjun" sincerely, and occasionally they would throw in some strange names like "brother-in-law" and "good brother", and they talked a lot of nonsense but did not move at all.
Finally, some people couldn't bear it anymore.
They are not the Zhao brothers and sisters, nor are they the swordsman Dugu.
In the cave, footsteps were heard again, and three forces entered one after another.
The first two people, Zhu Yuan and Zhu Xiuzhu, were Lu Bei’s acquaintances and his defeated opponents.
Seeing the two of them coming, Zhu Heng and Lu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, quickly left Lu Bei, and joined the Huangji Sect's team.
The second group of three people were also Lu Bei's acquaintances, the former former former emperor Zhu Jingli who had abdicated for many years. He led two fusion-stage fighters and kept a certain distance from the Huangji Sect duo.
"Your Highness has come in person. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."
Lu Bei acted like a host and led She Xuan to greet them.
For a time, Wu Zhou had a strong army and horses. Except for She Xuan who was in the Refining Void Realm, there were eight people in the Fusion Realm.
However, given the national conditions, the royal family and the Huangji Sect are each playing their own games, and with eight people joining together in a four-on-four fight, it is possible that they will be the first to start a fight.
The third group of two people were tall and strong, and their average height crushed everyone in the audience. It was obvious at a glance that they were from the royal family of Xiong Chu.
The leading man was wearing white clothes and had black hair. His long and thin phoenix eyes were fierce and unruly. Under his high nose bridge were two proud thin lips. Two black lines ran down his cheeks. He had a feminine appearance and was handsome, but also weird.
Xiong Chu, King Yuanxuan.
The expert who followed closely behind was also someone Lu Bei knew, the King Xinxian who possessed the magical treasure Cangtiantu.
King, emperor, monarch.
The Xiongchu royal family has clear hierarchies, but even within the same level, there are also differences in superiority and inferiority. King Yuanxuan's status is obviously higher than King Xinxian's. King Xinxian follows behind him, as obedient as a little brother.
Not to mention Xin Kuangjun, who walked behind King Yuanxuan, kept his mouth shut, and looked honest, just like the little minion standing at his alma mater's party when he was eighteen.
In comparison, Xinli Jun was obviously in much better condition. His icy face did not change at all, and he just nodded when he came in front of King Yuanxuan.
"Father."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, son."
King Yuanxuan responded, his eyes swept across the entire place, fixed on the Xuanlong trio, and finally stopped on Lu Bei.
The phoenix eyes narrowed into two thin lines, a red light flashed, and the smile was very kind for a moment.
After the younger one is beaten, the older one comes.
Lu Bei felt a chill on his neck, thinking about how he had put someone else's daughter on the shelf twice, and subconsciously leaned towards Zhu Jingli: "Who is that guy? He looks so arrogant. Look, Your Highness, he dares to glare at you!"
"He is King Yuanxuan. Sect Master Lu should have heard of his name."
"No wonder, it turned out to be him..."
Lu Bei nodded, frowning. At this moment, he deeply missed the kindness of his elder brother.
Zhu Jingli looked at Lu Bei and secretly called him a monster. After they parted at Beijun Mountain, in the time it took for Lu Bei to take a nap, he had advanced from the early stage of the Refining Void Realm to the Fusion Realm. His opponent had also upgraded from Zhu Yuan, who had reached the Great Perfection of the Fusion Realm, to Yan Jun, who had reached the Tribulation Crossing Realm.
If such a talent is not put to use, the whole Zhu family will be uneasy.
As for She Xuan beside Lu Bei, Zhu Jingli just pretended not to see it. When the water is too clear, there will be no fish. Born into a royal family and having been an emperor, he knew very well that some things need not be taken too seriously.
What is past is past, what is present will become past, and the future is the most important.
On the opposite side, King Yuan Xuan stared at Lu Bei for a long time, but when he got no response from his gaze, he snorted coldly and flew towards the entrance of the secret realm.
Xin Lijun and his two main followers followed closely behind, and Xiong Chu became the first force to enter the secret realm.
After that came the Huangji Sect headed by Zhu Yuan. Dugu wanted to talk to Lu Bei again, but was stopped by the Zhao brothers and sisters. He looked back every three steps and followed them into the secret realm.
"Dugu is evil, not a demon. He is definitely not a good person. Don't be fooled by his superficial appearance."
Zhu Jingli reminded him, and seeing that Lu Bei didn't care, he reminded him again: "He is a murderer who doesn't recognize his relatives. He has broken through to the Tribulation Stage three times, and he has also abandoned his cultivation and fallen to the Fusion Stage three times just to avoid the thunder tribulation. He wields a sword in a bloody storm. If the secret realm insists on inviting you to a duel... retreat if you can, don't compete with him for a moment."
So weird!
Lu Bei nodded: "I have heard of Jian Xiong's reputation a long time ago. The overall situation of the secret realm is more important, and I will not engage in a meaningless dispute with him."
"That's good."
Zhu Jingli nodded. The old man was very experienced and knew how to handle things. He smiled and took out three talismans and handed them to She Xuan, saying that they could be used to solve the urgent problem if necessary.
She Xuan looked at Lu Bei and saw him nod. She thanked him respectfully and took the three talismans.
At the same time, Zhu Jingli was labeled as an amiable senior.
Due to the information blockage, mainly because Lu Bei concealed too much, he had no idea that the old man had a great-granddaughter, who had an unclear relationship with Lu Bei and was the princess she hated the most.
What, senior sister
Elder She didn't dislike Senior Sister, she was mainly afraid of her. Before she made Lu Bei give in, she didn't dare to speak loudly in front of Senior Sister.
The last group of five people entered the secret realm. They stepped over the water curtain and light waves, and rich spiritual energy hit them in the face.
She Xuan took a deep breath, her face showing a hint of intoxication. In her sight, there were endless mountains lined up one after another, with majestic momentum stretching into the distance and disappearing into the clouds on the horizon.
Lu Bei didn't care about spiritual energy or anything like that. A true cultivator relied entirely on his aptitude to achieve immortality and disdained relying on external things. He happened to be such a cultivator.
The secret realm belonged to Yiliang a thousand years ago and supported a thousand-year-old divine dynasty. Although the Wu Zhou Dynasty is less than a thousand years old, it has a profound foundation, and the spiritual energy of the secret realm of the imperial city is more intense than what is before our eyes.
Zhu Jingli closed his eyes for a moment and sensed the value of this secret place. At the same time, he held up a bronze mirror in his palm.
The light from the mirror shone straight into the sky, and then, a picture of flowing light slowly unfolded in front of him.
The scroll hides thousands of mountains, and it is actually a map of a secret place.
If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. Zhu Jingli was not in a hurry to explore around. He studied the map for a while, pointed to a point, and invited Lu Bei to discuss it.
The painting of flowing light zooms in, and the camera moves to a white palace between the mountains.
"Master Lu, the buildings and palaces here are magnificent. They must have been built by the Zhai family, the royal family of Yiliang. I have observed countless spiritual herbs in the secret realm, but the treasure must be hidden here. What do you think?"
"Your Highness is the boss. If you need any help, such as if we are short of bargaining chips in negotiations with Xiong Chu, I am happy to serve you."
"Hahaha, thank you, Sect Master Lu."
"It's okay. This sect leader is loyal to the emperor and patriotic!" Lu Bei said modestly.
"Zhu thinks so too."
Zhu Jingli nodded repeatedly. He was quite patriotic. It would be best if he could offend the eldest princess of the royal family as soon as possible.
…
The stone steps are sparkling and the ground is covered with white jade, stretching from the foot of the mountain to halfway up the mountain.
Several palaces are hidden among the mountains and forests, with a strict layout and formation, like a tiger crouching and a dragon coiling, resembling a king. The largest palace has a white jade slab in front of it, and the brightest light is the most intense, like a palace in the moon, truly holy.
A stone tablet stood in front of the hall, with eight characters inscribed on it:
Colorful clouds are easily gone, and clear moon is hard to come by.
Jiyue Palace.
