After walking through the big turntable, several people came to an intersection.
A half-person-high Qilin stone statue squatted beside the intersection. This Qilin stone statue raised its head slightly, as if staring at everyone who entered the maze.
Even if Shi Wuming owed him a hand, he didn't dare to touch it now, and quickly kept a safe distance from it, lest someone who didn't pay attention, the unicorn stone statue would attack him again.
Every road in the maze is square, three feet high and three feet wide. For a cultivator, this space is very spacious, but for the unicorn stone statue, this space is relatively cramped.
Shi Wuming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if there were still stone statues like the unicorn on the big turntable, according to the space of this passage, it is estimated that they would not be able to appear here.
As for the other smaller unicorn statues, their combat effectiveness should not be as strong as the larger ones.
Just as he was thinking this way, he suddenly discovered that there were unicorn reliefs on the walls on both sides of the maze.
At intervals, there will be a unicorn relief, although not very dense, but it always gives people the illusion that all of them are being supervised.
"This thing is too much..." Shi Wuming said in a low voice.
"It's good to know, why say it?" Pei Qiyu gave him a shut-up look.
Shi Wuming had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. He was also worried that what he said wrong would attract something from the underground palace. What if he only attacked him again
After walking in the maze for a while, Ning Yuzhou suddenly paused.
Wen Qiao turned her head to look at him, and asked doubtfully, "Husband, what's the matter?"
When the other people heard the voice, they looked over one after another, and at the same time became alert, thinking that Ning Yuzhou had found something unusual.
Ning Yuzhou said: "The formation of the underground palace has been opened, and the people above should find out soon."
"What?" Shi Wuming was startled, "How could it be opened? Haven't you opened it before?" Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many practitioners who didn't know the secrets hidden in Chiri Villa.
Ning Yuzhou still said calmly: "It should be like this, but after we came in, we touched the formation of the underground palace, and at the same time awakened the owner of the underground palace, which caused the activation of the large formation of the underground palace, which naturally also affected the outside."
Everyone was a little stunned.
Suddenly Pei Qiyu thought of something, and asked: "The time you said before has not arrived, does it mean..."
Ning Yuzhou no longer kept the secret from them: "When I was in Chiri Villa, I observed that Chiri Villa obviously had a recovery formation, but I couldn't find any traces of its existence. Hidden. At that time, I was not sure that there would be this underground palace in Chiri Mountain Villa, and it would only be revealed when it needed a specific timing."
This specific timing turned out to be not in Chiri Villa, but in the lake of the villa.
When they pushed open the heavy stone door under the water, they alarmed a certain existence in the underground palace, causing the formation covering Chiri Villa to open.
Although he didn't see the situation outside, but after a little speculation, he could also know that there must be a formation in Chiri Mountain Villa, attracting many practitioners.
After listening to Ning Yuzhou's analysis, everyone already understood that there was a change in Chiri Villa outside, which would definitely attract the attention of practitioners in the secret realm, especially the two Zuo Yizhai who were squatting in Chiri Villa.
I'm afraid that when those two people discovered the hidden formation in Chiri Villa, they would have already entered the underground palace.
Shi Wuming was suddenly a little unhappy, thinking that they had worked so hard to come here to make wedding clothes for others, creating an opportunity for them to come in and explore the secrets of Chiri Villa.
Wen Qiao comforted him: "It's okay, we came in earlier than those people, we have all come here, and there will be nothing missing for us. Right?"
I don't know who she said this "Yes".
Su Molan and Pei Qiyu wisely kept silent, inexplicably feeling that only Wen Qiao dared to say such a thing as a matter of course - although they didn't know why the thing was so lenient to Wen Qiao, and Shi Wuming would beat him up even if he touched it .
Ning Yuzhou agreed and said: "Auntie is right, we have an advantage over them, and there are many traps in the underground palace, it is not easy to get through smoothly."
Even if those people can destroy the mechanism and clear the obstacles, I'm afraid there is not enough time.
The opening time of Chiri Villa's secret realm is one month, and it is only ten days before the secret realm closes. They don't have that much time to consume.
This remark made the three of Shi Wuming breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately decided to speed up and go through the maze first.
Just as they speeded up and walked through the maze, looking for a way out, they suddenly heard something unusual.
Wen Qiao and the others hurriedly put their ears and eyes on the wall, and found that the voice seemed to be approaching where they were.
"Go!" Pei Qiyu yelled, took Su Molan's hand and ran away.
Wen Qiao also dragged Ning Yuzhou to run away, and Shi Wuming Hall was at the end.
Just as they started running, the sound of rubbing bones was already approaching here.
Not long after, a round stone ball was seen rolling all the way from the passage behind them. The volume of this stone ball happens to fill the entire passage, if you don't want to be crushed into a pulp by it, you'd better run quickly and don't be overtaken by it.
Wen Qiao looked back and said, "The material of this stone is the same as the stone gate we came in."
Thinking of the stone door that was so heavy that they couldn't push it open, everyone's hearts sank, and they understood that if they were caught up by this stone ball, they would probably be crushed into a pulp.
Immediately they ran faster, as if they were racing against the stone ball rolling behind them.
—
When Wen Qiao and his group entered the maze, changes did occur outside Chiri Villa.
A bright flash of light suddenly appeared, covering the entire Chiri Villa.
This spiritual light soared into the sky, and all the cultivators in the secret realm could immediately see the flashing spiritual light, and no matter where they were, they rushed towards Chiri Mountain Villa immediately.
At the same time, Zuo Yizhai, Wei Qianli and others who had been guarding and searching in Chiri Villa also faced the changes in Chiri Villa directly, showing surprise on their faces.
The villa with its gates open, suddenly fluctuated in formations, as if to show the world that the silent villa was revived.
The fluctuation of the formation radiated from the center of the villa to the surroundings, turning into a striking aura, which shot up into the sky and was abnormally bright.
Until the aura disappeared, Zuo Yizhai and Wei Qianli did not say a word, and their figures flew towards the highest mountain in the villa, where they could overlook the whole villa, and it was also the most conspicuous place in the villa.
When they arrived, they found a teleportation array appeared there.
Without saying a word, everyone jumped into the teleportation array, a flash of inspiration flashed, and a group of people disappeared in it.
When they opened their eyes again, they were already in the dark underground palace.
The darkness has little effect on practitioners, and everyone can see their surroundings clearly.
This is a huge palace. The palace is empty, but it is surrounded by unicorn reliefs. There are also unicorn reliefs wrapped around the stone pillars supporting the palace. They have different shapes and are lifelike. This relief is actually a unicorn.
This is of course an illusion, even if it is really transformed by unicorns, there are not so many unicorns in this world that have turned into so many reliefs.
Wei Qianli was surprised: "How can there be so many unicorns?"
Zuo Yizhai held an exquisitely crafted white jade fan, which was his talisman. It looked delicate, but it was a heaven-level spiritual weapon with hidden secrets. Many people had suffered from it.
"It should be related to Chiri Mountain Villa." Zuo Yizhai examined it for a moment, "Dr. Wei, do you remember the two unicorn stone statues at the entrance of the villa?"
Wei Qianli couldn't remember it, it can be said that he was deeply impressed.
Although many people don't understand why Chiri Villa put two unicorn stone statues in the square at the entrance, but many people don't take it to heart, and they regard it as Chiri Villa's admiration for the power of the divine beast unicorn, which is used for decoration That's all.
But I didn't think that Chiri Villa really had inextricable relationship with Qilin, otherwise this underground palace wouldn't be like this.
Suddenly, Wei Qianli thought of the disciple of the Seven Soul Sect who also came in, and asked Zuo Yizhai: "During these days, have you found the whereabouts of the disciple of the Seven Soul Sect, Shi Wuming?"
Zuo Yizhai is also a keen mind, after hearing what he said, he understood what he meant.
His face changed slightly, and he said hesitantly: "After he left Chiri Mountain Villa, he went to the depths of the secret realm and never came back."
"I'm afraid he'll come back long ago, otherwise how could there be such an accident at Chiri Villa?" Wei Qianli said lightly, already understanding that the incident at Chiri Villa might have something to do with the disciples of the Palace of Fate and Soul.
The Palace of Fate and Soul of the Seven Soul Sect is really well hidden, and they even let them figure it out.
Zuo Yizhai's mind turned and he had some guesses.
Immediately, the two of them stopped hesitating and rushed towards the only door of the palace.
As soon as he rushed over, he was stopped by the formation on the gate.
"Young master, there is a formation here." A formation master from Shifang Trading Company said, "Young master, wait a moment and wait for me to break the formation."
Zuo Yizhai glanced at Wei Qianli unexpectedly, he didn't expect this person to bring in a magician, after a little thought, he realized that Shifang Trading Company probably got as much news as he did, otherwise they wouldn't have specially sent their young master over.
However, Zuo Yizhai is more willing to directly destroy the formation than to let the formation mage break it.
"Why bother? Get out of the way!"
Zuo Yizhai was able to cultivate to the Yuanhuang Realm in a force where a woman was in power, and he was not a simple character, and his character was a little more arrogant and uninhibited. Before Wei Qianli could react, he opened the white jade fan with a swish sound, and the white jade fan quickly enlarged, turning into a huge fan with half a person's height. Zuo Yizhai held the huge fan and moved towards the door.
A gust of wind blew up, and there was a fierce murderous intent in the wind, directly attacking the formation on the door.
The sound of bang bang bang sounded, and the formation on the door fluctuated violently.
"Uncle Zuo is amazing!"
"Master Zuo's power is boundless!"
"Master Zuo continues!"
The accompanying disciples of Bi Nu Pavilion yelled loudly, cheering for Zuo Yizhai.
The cultivators of Shifang Trading Company were surprised by Zuo Yizhai's attack, and when they saw this scene, their emotions were beyond words. The female disciples of the Bi Nu Pavilion are all beautiful and charming, and they are especially attractive to male cultivators, but sometimes, they are really speechless.
Accompanied by the coquettish shouts of the disciples of the Bi Nu Pavilion, the formation above the door was attacked several times in a row, and the aura suddenly faded, and was finally destroyed by the explosive force.
Zuo Yizhai turned his hand, and the huge white jade fan quickly returned to its normal size, and he grabbed it in his hand.
"Fellow Daoist Wei, the formation is broken, you can go out." Zuo Yizhai smiled coquettishly at Wei Qianli, and made a gesture of invitation.
Wei Qianli also returned the salute very politely, "Since it was Zuo Daoist who broke the formation, it should be Zuo Daoist who went first."
Don't look at their polite appearance, in fact, they are both Yuanhuang realm practitioners, standing at the same height, they have dealt with quite a lot, no one accepts the other, and they are wary of each other in their hearts.
Zuo Yizhai raised his eyebrows slightly, but he was no longer polite, a spirit energy struck towards the door, pushed it open, and walked out.
Seeing this, the others quickly followed him.
When they walked out, the door closed behind them, and at the same time, a murderous intent floated in the air, rushing towards the group of people.
Zuo Yizhai and Wei Qianli reacted extremely quickly and blocked the incoming attack.
When they saw the situation clearly, they couldn't help showing shock. They were attacked by a group of stone statues.
No, it should be said that they look like puppets made of stone, but their bodies are flexible and their attacks are fierce, just like real people.
Zuo Yizhai and Wei Qianli shot at the same time to stop the stone puppets.
After fighting for a few times, the hearts of the two sank at the same time, and they had already discovered the power of these stone puppets.
They are not only extremely heavy, but also hard in texture, which cannot be damaged by ordinary spiritual weapons. Coupled with that flexible attack, they seem to have no weaknesses. What's even more frightening is that there are so many of these stone puppets, and as far as the eye can see, they are densely packed there, leaving them nowhere to escape.
Let them come in, so naturally they can't be trapped here.
Immediately, Zuo Yizhai and Wei Qianli looked at each other, and they decided to work together to overcome the difficulties here first.
—
Not only the group of Zuo Yizhai and Wei Qianli encountered troubles, but other practitioners who entered the underground palace from the teleportation array also encountered various traps and mechanisms from the underground palace, and it was quite difficult to break through.
At this time, Wen Qiao and the others who came in earlier than this group were still competing with the rolling stone ball.
"It's not a solution to run like this, let's get rid of this rock first." Pei Qiyu tightly pulled the exhausted Su Molan, his expression tense.
Wen Qiao also pulled Ning Yuzhou, and said to him, "What can you do?"
Shi Wuming ran out of breath: "Hurry up, find a way, or we will be crushed to death by it."
Unexpectedly, when he heard his words, Ning Yuzhou, who had been silently holding the pendant and let Wen Qiao pull him away, flew towards him again.
Shi Wuming yelled and smashed towards the rolling stone.
The stone finally stopped, Shi Wuming lay on the ground, his lower body was stuck under the stone, and it also became an obstacle to prevent the stone from rolling.
Without the life-threatening stone crushing, everyone also stopped.
Shi Wuming said in grief and indignation: "Are you still human? You even used me to block the stone!"
Ning Yuzhou walked over, popped a elixir into his mouth, and said softly, "Only you can stop it, so you should work harder as you are capable."
Teacher Wuming: "..."
Pei Qiyu and Su Molan's eyes wandered, and finally decided to pretend that they hadn't seen anything.
They rested for a while, wiped the sweat off their faces, and discussed how to leave the maze.
The appearance of this stone ball let them know that there must be many traps in this maze, and because they were chased by the stone ball all the way, they ran for a long time, and they no longer knew where they went in the maze.
"...I'm still stuck in the rock, you guys discuss it quickly." Shi Wuming shouted at them.
Wen Qiao said: "This stone is a strange stone, very hard, it is not easy to destroy it."
Ning Yuzhou said: "It seems that there are many strange stones like this in this underground palace. The previous statues were all made of this kind of strange stone."
"There is also the wall of the maze, which is also made of different stones." Pei Qiyu patted the wall.
Su Molan looked at the little iron beast on Wen Qiao's shoulder that was eating the spirit pill, "Isn't Wen Gungun an earth-type monster? I wonder if it can be solved."
This Wen Qiao really didn't know, so she turned her head and asked, "Wen Gun Gun, can you destroy it?"
Wen Gungun looked at her innocently with black eyes, moved his butt slowly, and looked at Shi Wuming who was pressed under the stone, obviously not wanting to move.
Shi Wuming hurriedly said: "Wen Gungun, if you can solve it, I will give you the most delicious spirit bamboo when you go back. There are several golden bearded cloud emperor bamboos planted in the Minghun Hall, and I will give you one."
Wen Gungun regained his energy immediately, climbed down from Wenqiao's shoulders, and came in front of Shi Wuming.
Shi Wuming looked serious: "I really have the golden beard cloud emperor bamboo, which is a good thing for refining Qiankun Dongfu, I won't lie to you."
Wen Gungun stretched out his paw towards him, that's a deal.
Shi Wuming made a deal with Wen Gungun with a golden beard cloud emperor bamboo.
