Chapter 406 Causes and Effects
"If I'm not mistaken, this scale may come from the scales of the overlord in the sea. The mermaid clan," said Chen Xiao.
"Mermaids."
Qin Lei has naturally heard of this race. It is said that this race is not much different from humans. It’s just that sometimes they have scales on them. The legendary mermaid may be a member of this race.
"Strange. This is the place of the ancestor Tianxie. How could it be possible for the fish clan members to come here? Moreover, this room is the boudoir of the ancestor Tianxie's closest relative?" Qin Lei said in confusion.
"Qin Lei. There is something you may have guessed wrong. This boudoir may not be owned by the close relative of the ancestor Tianxie. But it is owned by the mermaid clan. If I was not mistaken, this mermaid should be a woman," Chen Xiao continued.
Qin Lei fell into doubt again. The ancestor Tianxie was a human. This is an indisputable fact. However, there was actually a mermaid woman's boudoir in his mansion. This was obviously a bit strange.
But what is the reason? Qin Lei cannot analyze it yet.
At this moment, Qin Lei suddenly thought that when he was in the front yard, he had seen a bone that did not look like a real human bone. Could it be the mermaid tribe?
After thinking carefully, it was indeed the case. The flippers of the bones were a bit weird. At that time, Qin Lei felt that they were a little different from ordinary humans. Now it seems that they should be the bones of a mermaid tribe.
But does that bone have a connection with the owner of the boudoir? Or is that the bone is the owner of the boudoir?
Qin Lei looked around in confusion. Now he could no longer restore what happened back then. However, being in the mansion of the ancestor Tianxie, at least it should have a different relationship.
Qin Lei thought about it and felt that this person should be the owner of this boudoir.
It seems that this matter must have something to do with the Mermaid Clan, one of the overlords in the sea. After all, being able to sink a city to the bottom of the sea is not something that ordinary monsters can do. Especially in this city, there is a powerful immortal. Ancestor Tianxie.
All the warriors in the entire city disappeared. Now I think about it. Ancestor Tianxie may have had a subtle opposition with the mermaid clan, which eventually ruined the city.
The ancestor Tianxie used magical power to seal the city, so the dead people here became like this.
The ancestor of Tianxie is neither Shen nor Ming. Therefore, his power should be different from other immortals. That's why this incredible thing happens in this city.
However, Qin Lei cannot figure out what happened back then. Looking at the buildings in the backyard of this mansion, we can see that the ancestor Tianxie is very good to the women of the mermaid clan.
Since that's the case, how could the ancestor Tianxie become enemies with the mermaid clan?
One possibility between enemies is for profit, but the clues around them do not seem to be turned against each other because of interests.
Another possibility is because of love.
From the arrangements of the ancestor Tianxie, it can be seen that he should be quite good at the women of the mermaid clan. Could it be that the ancestor Tianxie snatched the wife of a strong man of the mermaid clan and then caused hostility.
These are all speculations. Qin Lei did not dare to make such a decision.
"Go away. Leave here." Qin Lei smiled faintly and said.
Chen Xiao didn't say much. He followed Qin Lei away from the city lord's mansion and walked outside Tianxie City.
Now Qin Lei has roughly known what is going on. However, Qin Lei still doesn’t know what the battle was like back then. And who was fighting against the ancestor Tianxie.
The ancestor Tianxie is a legendary immortal. He can form his own way and can surpass the sky. It is far beyond what ordinary warriors can do.
Although it is said that the ancestor Tianxie finally reached the realm of the Divine King before his death. It was not the limit of immortality. No one did not recognize his talents.
It is said that this person himself is not very talented, but he is a person with great perseverance. He cannot tolerate heaven and earth. He actually created his own way to open the road of neither god nor underworld.
However, this man was like a flash of time. There were not many stories passed down between heaven and earth. Even his martial arts disappeared between heaven and earth.
When Qin Lei learned that this was the territory of the ancestor Tianxie, Qin Lei had already begun to plan, hoping to find the martial arts skills of this genius against the world.
Of course, Qin Lei does not need the things of the ancestor Tianxie. But there is better than nothing. Since his martial arts are not tolerated between heaven and earth, then there is something unique about him. Qin Lei really hopes to see this magical martial arts technique.
After leaving the city, Qin Lei walked around. There was a strange formation here. It should have been set up by the ancestor Tianxie. It was so that people in the city who were implicated by him could live a carefree life.
Although they were all dead, Qin Lei had to admit that the people here lived a really leisurely life.
Such an immortal divine formation is naturally something that Qin Lei cannot understand. Qin Lei did not mean to understand it. At this time, Qin Lei was thinking that since this city was sunk, the battlefield must be underground or around.
This place used to be a continent. Even if it was not a continent, it should be a relatively large island.
Let this city sink to the bottom of the sea. Only by breaking the underground. In other words, the real battlefield should be below this city.
Although countless years have passed, Qin Lei believes that he can find some channels below.
Do it when you think of it.
The mental power was dissipated. Qin Lei looked for some tiny cave entrances. The emperor paid off. Until at night, Qin Lei finally found a cave that led to the underground.
Qin Lei didn't know what kind of animal it mined here. But it seemed that it was definitely not a human. Since it was not a human, Qin Lei was much more relieved.
The entrance of the cave is not big. Qin Lei can only climb in. There are strange black rock-like things around him. It should not be said to be rocks. Because it is very soft and is a strange substance.
Fortunately, these things will not collapse. There should be no problem when entering.
Qin Lei is in front and Chen Xiao is in the back. The front is extremely dim and there is a lot of mud and sand. As long as Qin Lei moves a little, the water will become turbid.
Qin Lei could only use his mental power to sense it and slowly move forward until almost half an hour later, Qin Lei stopped.
The entrance to the front is much larger, and the mud and sand have also been reduced a lot. It is already very bright. The brightness here is really bright, because there are some night pearls on the ground around the cave, which shines around.
"Strange. What's this place?" Qin Lei was originally looking for traces of the battle between the ancestor Tianxie and the peerless strong man of the Mermaid Clan. But now it seems that Qin Lei was wrong in the front because there were no traces of fighting here.
Could it be that the city's sinking was not formed by the battle between the Mermaid Clan and the Ancestor Tianxie?
"What's wrong?" Chen Xiao asked.
"It feels strange. There must be some secrets hidden here. But it may be very dangerous. Be careful," Qin Lei reminded Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao nodded. It is absolutely impossible to have no danger in this environment. "I understand."
After continuing to move forward for a while, Qin Lei found that this place seemed like a huge treasure house. There was a lot of gold and silver, and rare treasures were no problem. But these things were nothing to Qin Lei.
Moreover, these things do not seem to have much effect on the ancestor Tianxie or the mermaid clan. Who hides so many precious things under the city of Tianxie?
"I know what's going on," Chen Xiao said.
"oh."
"Although the mermaid tribe is a powerful monster race, this race has some small habits. It is said that there are many palaces in the sea. They are built by these monsters. They collect a lot of treasures just to build the palace," Chen Xiao said.
After hearing Chen Xiao's words, Qin Lei understood. This place is indeed the place of the Mermaid Clan. And Qin Lei now understands that the Mermaid Clan should not come from a distance, but is always under the Tianxie City.
There are immortal strong men in the mermaid clan. There are peerless strong men in the Tianxie City above. They naturally know each other. Since the mermaid clan can tolerate humans above, the ancestor Tianxie did not expel the mermaid clan, which means that they should not be hostile.
Even if the hostility is a temporary intention. Now I think about it, it seems that it is really related to the mermaid woman in the lord of Tianxie City.
Who is she? She can actually fight between two old guys who have known each other for at least thousands of years. Tianxie City sank to the bottom of the sea, causing the fish clan to leave here.
Continue to walk inside. This is a huge underground palace-like place. The palace in the sea looks a bit like the so-called Dragon Palace in the previous life.
The surrounding colorful glass and jewelry are full of light, but there is no breath of life. Although it is a huge palace and lifeless, it is also extremely sad.
"This should be the former mermaid clan palace. It seems that the ancestor Tianxie and the peerless powerful men of the mermaid clan did not fight here. Otherwise, this place would have been destroyed long ago," Qin Lei said lightly.
"Not bad. Moreover, the sinking of Tianxie City may not be because of the battle between the two. It may also be because of other reasons. It's just that there are too few clues." Chen Xiao also analyzed.
Qin Lei smiled faintly and continued: "It may not be. Although the battle is not here, judging from Tianxie City and the underground palace, the two have indeed fought. It's just that the process and the ending are going on. We can't analyze it."
"What should we do next?" Chen Xiao asked.
"What else can I do? Although these treasures don't mean much to us, I can't let them stay here. Moreover, there may be treasures that are useful to us warriors. Let's empty them first."
