"Did you notice that the movable walls of each space are adjacent, that is to say..."
Jiang Deng touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "This underground palace is a large square space, divided into four small spaces by four walls. We have completed a cycle by pushing the door four times, even if we continue aimlessly.
Even if we push it, we won't be able to find a real exit."
Baili Chengfeng looked at Jiang Deng with admiration.
I can actually think of so many things! One look at Jiang Deng shows that he has a lot of survival experience...
Jiang Deng was greatly benefited from Baili Chengfeng's admiring look. He coughed lightly and said, "So the conventional methods are useless, so we have to use unconventional methods, but we need your help."
"Okay." Baili Chengfeng agreed without saying a word.
Jiang Deng put down Baili Chengfeng on his back, "Turn around and face away from me."
Baili Chengfeng's eyes widened slightly, "...you, what are you going to do to me?"
"..."
The corner of Jiang Deng's mouth twitched. Could it be that Chengfeng mistakenly thought that she wanted to take this opportunity to touch him?
How could she do such a cruel thing!
Seeing the panic on Baili Chengfeng's face getting more and more intense, Jiang Deng had no choice but to explain: "Where have you been thinking about? I want to draw a talisman and use your back to stand on the table!"
"oh……"
Baili Chengfeng responded, and his tone couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or happy.
Turn around, facing away from Jiang Deng.
Jiang Deng took out four pieces of rune paper from his storage bag and laid them flat on Baili Chengfeng's back. Using his fingertips as pens and his spiritual power as ink, he smoothly wrote one rune after another.
A flash of blue light, a low-grade Xuan-level blasting talisman, done!
Because four explosive symbols were drawn at the same time, the power of chaos in Jiang Deng's body was rapidly consumed, which put a huge burden on his body, and Jiang Deng's face turned pale.
After drawing the talisman, she immediately took out a Herb Pill and swallowed it. The power of chaos in her dantian began to recover rapidly, and her face looked better.
"Okay, let's go!"
After finishing the preparations, Jiang Deng carried Baili Chengfeng on his back and pushed the wall open again with him.
But unlike last time when she just pushed the wall, this time she stuffed a blasting charm into the gaps between the four movable walls. When the time comes, she can... hum!
After placing the last blasting talisman in the fourth door, Jiang Deng carried Baili Chengfeng on his back to the center of the space.
"Can your protective aura still be used?"
Jiang Deng asked without any expectations. If Baili Chengfeng's protective aura could no longer be used, she would have to spend more time drawing an amulet.
Baili Chengfeng nodded without any hesitation, "Okay."
"Okay, use your spiritual energy to protect us both, and I'm going to get started."
Baili Chengfeng nodded, enduring the severe pain that rose up in his Dantian when using his spiritual power, and squeezed out a trace of spiritual power to support the movement of the body-protecting spiritual energy.
A silver-gray protective cover appeared, completely covering the two of them.
Qi and blood surged in his chest. Baili Chengfeng gritted his teeth and endured it. He couldn't hold Jiang Deng back...
"Explosion Talisman, explode!"
The next moment, four rumbling sounds sounded at the same time.
Fire shot into the sky, and the four walls collapsed.
Hot air waves swept towards them. Fortunately, the protective shield of the body-protecting spiritual energy protected them, otherwise they would have died along with the surrounding walls.
"Cough cough cough!"
Baili Chengfeng's protective shield dissipated and he used his spiritual power to injure his body again. However, in order to prevent Jiang Deng from discovering it, he could only swallow the blood that surged up his throat and let out a dull cough that was difficult to suppress.
Jiang Deng thought it was the dust around him that had choked Baili Chengfeng, so he said, "It will be fine when the dust dissipates."
"……Um."
When the dust dispersed, the surrounding situation came into view.
The walls that originally blocked their path have disappeared, replaced by a large, more open space.
However... I still can't find the so-called entrance.
Jiang Deng frowned, "Isn't this just a square enclosed space? It doesn't look like a palace at all, but it has the nerve to call it an underground palace!"
Also, the mission is for them to find the exit of the underground palace. Are you sure you are not trying to trick her?!
Jiang Deng felt like a fool who had been deceived. He couldn't swallow this breath and stamped his foot angrily.
clatter!
When he stamped his feet, there was a splash of water.
Jiang Deng subconsciously lowered his head to look at the ground, and saw that the soil under his feet was getting even wetter, and the soil even began to seep upward, threatening to cover her shoes.
"Where did the water come from?" Jiang Deng's eyes flashed with confusion.
"Hey hey hey..."
At the same time, sinister laughter sounded, and this weird laughter echoed in the closed underground palace.
The next moment, an extremely huge gray snake arched out of the soil and soared into the sky, circling and twisting its body in mid-air. Every scale on its body was filled with joy.
"Eight hundred years! Eight hundred years! I finally escaped!"
Jiang Deng looked at the snake in mid-air and felt that it looked familiar. "Snake demon, have we seen it somewhere?"
Hearing this, the snake demon stopped having fun and looked down at Jiang Deng on the ground, "Little girl, your way of striking up a conversation is too old-fashioned. I cultivate the ruthless way, and I will never be seduced by you."
Jiang Deng: "..."
It's amazing that a snake can be so narcissistic.
But... it says about cultivating the ruthless path?
Jiang Deng remembered. Isn't this the snake demon who instigated Wei Yan to kill his wife and become enlightened? How could it appear in the underground palace?
"Aren't you Wei Yan's master? Why, you were imprisoned here by him too?"
"Don't mention that villain to me!"
The snake demon angrily slapped the soil with its tail, causing a splash of water. "I'm so kind to him. I saved him from the boring mortal life, gave him skills, and gave him spiritual energy."
Device, what’s the result?”
"After he achieved success in his cultivation, he assassinated me, ripped out my skin and cramped my muscles, and made it into a spiritual weapon! I don't have that disciple of his!"
"Didn't you bring it upon yourself?" Jiang Deng was amused, "It was you who taught him to kill his wife and teach him the truth. It is normal for him to kill his teacher later. It means that your teachings had an effect on him. Your current tragedy is exactly right.
You did it yourself."
The snake demon single-handedly caused Yao Lanxin's tragedy, but he didn't feel at all that he was at fault. Now that it had become a victim, it began to resent Wei Yan.
So how should Yao Lan handle herself?
Being poked by Jiang Deng, the snake demon's eyes turned red with anger, "Ah! I ate you damn human being!"
After all, come straight towards Jiang Deng!
Without looking back, Jiang Deng asked Baili Chengfeng on his back, "Is it okay for you to stay by yourself?"
This snake demon is so powerful that she may not be able to defeat him. If Baili Chengfeng is carried on her back, it will probably be even more difficult.
Baili Chengfeng nodded, "I'm fine, you can go."
"okay!"
Putting Baili Chengfeng down, Jiang Deng took out his heavy light sword, flew forward and took the initiative to meet the snake demon.
