Chapter 15 Using Heaven as a Chess
The smell of gunpowder mixed with the smell of damp earth reminded Chen Kuang of the New Year celebrations in the countryside when he was a child. The smell of inferior firecrackers seeped out of the half-melted snow and mixed into the early morning air.
His eyes were focused and he wiped away the oil and water on his hands.
The oil mixed in the water must be man-made. You might as well guess that someone poured oil behind the wall, and then it seeped out along the large cracks in the wall due to moisture.
Plus gunpowder...
It is not difficult to think of what arrangements Li Hongling made——
There may be secret passages underground and within the walls of this prison, and she plans to use a large amount of gunpowder to directly level the place to the ground.
I just don’t know how widespread the gunpowder deployment is.
Chen Kuang's face was expressionless.
No wonder...
Even if Li Hongling knew that he was a cultivator, she did not ban his cultivation. She only broke his leg, and the supervision of the Tianlao was not strict.
It's not that she didn't expect that there might be other means, and it's not that she disdains his cultivation, it's that she is more capable than she imagined.
It turned out that the news he heard from the jailer was false from the beginning.
Li Hongling has no intention of letting the remaining ordinary palace people go, never!
On the contrary, she wanted to leave no one behind.
And it seems that what she wants to do is not only kill people, but also destroy the palace.
However, did this secret passage originally exist, or was it dug out specifically for this matter in the past few days?
This issue is critical.
Chen Kuang asked shamelessly, looking at Huo Hengxuan who was sleeping, and lowered his voice.
"General Huo, is there a secret passage in this prison?"
Even he could discover this secret passage, so it must be easy for Huo Hengxuan.
Huo Hengxuan opened his eyes, his expression was as calm as expected.
"Daliang was founded for 1,600 years, and the layout of the imperial city has not changed at all."
Oh, that's what it has always been.
But why is there a secret tunnel built in the prison?
After thinking about it...it seems that it can only be related to the Demon Suppression Prison.
"General, does he know the purpose of this secret passage? Where is the entrance and exit?"
"It's useless. The secret passage is not deep and almost touches the wall. The entrance and exit are right at the entrance and exit of the sky prison. It's not difficult to find."
"There are many hidden dangers in putting this secret passage here. There are also officials from the Ministry of Punishment who want to repair it."
"Then?"
"And it was dismissed."
Huo Hengxuan shook his head: "It is said that the Su family has an ancestral motto that never changes an inch of the imperial city's layout."
The Su family is naturally the royal family.
This is a bit interesting...
Chen Kuang inquired deeply:
"Why?"
Huo Hengxuan glanced at him and became impatient again.
"Where do all these problems come from?"
Chen Kuang looked serious: "It's a matter of life and death."
Huo Hengxuan was silent for a moment and said: "There was once an emperor who was about to make changes, but suddenly a man descended from the sky and told him that the layout of the imperial city suppresses the fate of a country. If it is changed, it will destroy the country's foundation."
He sneered: "What a demon."
Kunimoto...
Chen Kuang chewed this word.
If you haven't heard the story told by Mrs. Liang Guo, then these two words are illusory.
But now, he already knows that the foundation of Daliang's country is none other than the two powerful men who suppressed the great demon and benefited all things!
This secret passage really has something to do with the Demon Suppression Prison!
So, could this strange, seemingly useless secret passage be the key to suppressing the great demon?
We must find a way to get more clues.
If his plan is useless, then this may become the key.
If you practice "Tushita Descends to Heaven" and practice diligently, you can cultivate your spiritual consciousness. Although it is not as good as the ability of the soul to leave the body, it can see all obstacles as if they are nothing.
Chen Kuang made up his mind and prepared to enter meditation again.
"Boom..."
The ground began to shake again, and the starlight outside the window seemed to go out for a moment, and the world fell into darkness.
Chen Kuang stabilized his body, looked out the window, and narrowed his eyes.
Is this...the Saint's War coming to an end?
Will the ancestor of the Liang Kingdom win or lose against the "Eastern Emperor" of the Zhou Dynasty?
"Failed."
Huo Hengxuan sighed.
Chen Kuang was confused: "How did General Huo figure it out?"
Huo Hengxuan's hesitation from the beginning seemed to indicate that he knew from the beginning that the Liang Patriarch was destined to lose, but with his state, it seemed that he could not reach the so-called saint state.
The experience Huo Hengxuan gave him also included the realm of today's practitioners.
The ninth level is the enlightenment realm, the eighth level is the innate realm, and the seventh level is the climbing tower realm. These are the lower three levels.
It is also the limit that a mortal warrior can reach. The best master in the world is only at the peak of the Climbing Realm.
Climbing the stairs means ascending to the twelfth floor in the sky, the threshold of the immortal world.
The sixth level is the Sea Opening Realm, the fifth level is the Moon Holding Realm, and the fourth level is the Grandmaster Realm. This is the middle third level, with all kinds of magical powers and magical methods.
The third level is the Xuanxuan Realm, the second level is the Daoan Realm, and the first level is the Shenliao Realm. This is the upper third level. It can no longer be recognized by common sense. It is omnipotent, immortal, and is not among the five elements.
And only by stepping into the second-grade Daoan realm, crossing the sea of suffering, and reaching the other shore can one be called a "saint".
Huo Hengxuan was at the master level before he was deposed.
He is so tyrannical that he can protect the beams from falling for decades, but with this strength, he is like an ant to those of the upper third level.
Logically speaking, it should be impossible to reach this realm.
Just like Chen Kuang at this moment, he couldn't even imagine how those two saints were fighting so hard that they could shake the earth.
But after all, Huo Hengxuan is a master who has reached the third level in half a step.
He pursed his lips and gestured to the sky.
"The two saints used the stars and sky as their chessboard. Now they have reached the middle game, and the outcome is gradually becoming clear."
Chen Kuang was stunned for a moment, feeling a thrill all over his body.
He raised his head and looked at the dim starry sky. This time he squinted his eyes and looked very carefully.
The strange and gorgeous starry sky was not as still as he had seen before. In just this moment, one star went out.
No...not just that one, but countless!
That was not a star, but... a complete nebula!
What a horrific sight.
Chen Kuang was astonished and concentrated, subconsciously assuming the first phase posture, wanting to take a closer look.
The originally chaotic galaxy turned into a huge chessboard in his eyes.
A big hand that covered the sky suddenly came down, picked up a nebula, moved it to a place, and merged with several star clusters.
The brilliant nebula surrounded by it exploded instantly, collapsing at high speed and turning into a pitch black abyss.
And his mind couldn't help but be attracted, wanting to fly into it.
"Certainly!"
To be continued...
