When Lin Ling jumped down, the robot puppet behind him also came in.
But it's more like 'falling in' than 'jumping in'. For some unknown reason, all the smart puppets in the palace seemed to be out of control, so these puppets didn't even know that there was a very deep pit there.
The hole rushed over quickly, and then fell down one by one.
Lin Ling thought for a while and simply slashed out with his sword, swept away the surrounding earth and rocks, and directly sealed the hole above his head. Although he was not afraid of these clever dolls, it would be troublesome for so many of them to fall together at once.
If they were alive, he could knock them unconscious, but for these robot dolls that were completely out of control, he could only stop them by dismantling them, otherwise they would be nothing more than useless.
After falling downward for a while, Lin Ling could feel that he was almost close to the ground, so he slashed out with his sword again. The buffer formed by the power of space suddenly slowed down his speed, and he finally landed slowly.
"Tsk, lighting tools."
Smacking his lips, Lin Ling took out the magic crystal lamp for lighting from the space. This thing is much safer than ignition lighting. This kind of underground space is closed all the year round. God knows if there are some flammable gases in it. What if?
It's really fun to put it on fire and explode.
☆
Lin Ling, who had already descended to the ground, did not know that just after the explosive he gave to Blair was detonated, the entire palace was plunged into the smoke after the explosion. This definitely not a small movement had alarmed most of the entire royal capital.
people.
I'm not deaf or blind. How could I not detect such a loud smoke?
But only a few people know what this explosion is all about.
In a remote tavern, the owner closed the door of the shop where no one came in the past. After confirming that everything was correct, he opened the barrier.
Then he entered the underground wine cellar and took down a bottle of fine wine worth thousands of gold coins from one of the wine racks. A door on the side of the wine cellar opened.
The store owner ducked into the passage, and the door of the passage was closed. There was nothing strange at all from the outside.
The room after the passage is not big, and there is almost nothing else except a screen and a control instrument.
He operated the instrument back and forth a few times, and soon the screen changed from a gray screen to a snowflake screen.
A few more seconds passed. The screen suddenly changed, and a man shrouded in black shadow appeared on the screen.
"Sir!" The shop owner quickly saluted respectfully, "Things have changed. It seems that not only our Summit Council and Hell Cross have taken action, but other forces have also intervened!"
"Tell me about the current situation." The 'adult' said solemnly, his voice seemed to be three elements overlapping. It sounded like a strange vibrato, completely unlike the sound that a human throat can produce.
"Yes!" The store owner nodded, and then respectfully explained the current situation.
After hearing this, the 'adult' fell into a brief thought: "Could it be the kid who killed one of my clones that night?"
The store owner was immediately shocked: "My lord, your clone?!"
"Don't worry, it's just a clone. A very interesting kid broke into the transaction that night. He threw a bomb specifically for space, directly blowing up that space. In order to protect that thing, so
I sacrificed that clone. From the perspective of the 'explosion' technique, it does seem like something that boy could do. You continue to observe and keep in touch when necessary. I will decide whether to pick you up depending on the situation.
As for the individuals involved in the operation, you send a communication and say that you are allowed to use the scabbard when necessary!"
"Yes, sir!"
As soon as the voice fell, the screen turned into a screen of snowflakes again, and the store owner also breathed a long sigh of relief.
Almost the same thing was happening in another location, but the content of the conversation had changed.
"The idiots in the Summit Council think that they can be sure of success once they master the scabbard, but they don't know that the sword soul separated from the magic sword is also the key. As long as you get the soul-forbidden ring, it is completely easy to deal with the sword soul."
"Give me the order. When necessary, allow..."
In the hotel where Lin Ling lived, while Shuang Yue and others were waiting boredly, Lin Ling, who did not wait to return, was waiting for Shana, Ai Xue, and the three of Ilya who followed later.
"Where are Lin Ling and others?" Shana anxiously grabbed Shuangyue and asked as soon as she came in.
But Shuangyue could only spread her hands: "Master, he went to the palace, now..."
"What?! He has already set off?! Didn't he say he would wait until we arrived before leaving?!" The expressions of the three people suddenly changed.
"What's going on?" Wei Yin walked out, rubbing his hazy sleepy eyes after not sleeping well last night, "What happened?"
"Where is Lin Ling? Take us to find him quickly!" Shana was anxious.
"What happened? The master said he would be back soon. What did you find?"
Shuangyue frowned and asked.
"Read this information for yourselves! In the Holy King's Calendar, one thousand eight hundred and seventy-two years! All kinds of sword aura suddenly bloomed in the sky above King Duyin Pail of King Geist. The demonic aura was overwhelming. It took three days and three nights before it gradually dissipated."
"What's wrong with this?"
"After that, someone in the palace picked up an unknown baby girl by the forest in the palace, and simply raised her. Look at her appearance..." Shana obviously had this information in her hand.
It has been many years, and the pictures above are a little blurry, but the girls (Ilya: Where is my position?!) can still vaguely see the appearance of the woman.
"This is...exactly the same as Blair's little lover Yilin?!"
"There are very few records at the back, as if they had been erased. Even a few of us couldn't find any more records. As for Ilya, he found some records in their kingdom's records, which were about not long after the kingdom was established.
At that time, a prince once proposed marriage to the Kingdom of Geist, and the princess who was proposed to marry at that time seemed to look exactly like the princess named Yilin."
"And this record here..."
After finishing speaking, everyone in the room fell into silence for a while.
They look exactly the same?! Are they both from the Gest Kingdom?
If it only happened once, it could be considered that a character that looked very similar to the ancestor appeared due to a mutation in the descendants. But if it appeared many times? It is obviously not that simple.
It is even possible that the existence of Princess Yilin itself is a conspiracy!
"No. We have to find the owner, he may be in danger!"
☆
In front of Lin Ling's eyes, what unfolded was an unprecedented underground world.
A huge hole was formed in the entire underground. Unlike the underground altar in Luoxi City, the hole here seemed to be dug out at once by the powerful force of life. It was not built up bit by bit!
"Tsk, this place the old man mentioned is really interesting..."
Lin Ling smacked his lips. Tialuka had returned to her human form at this time. The girl hung on Lin Ling's arm, and the two walked forward together.
The underground space must be very secretive, because there is not even a single guard here, let alone any enemies.
And at the end of the sight, there is... a huge altar!
The altar is entirely grey-brown, made of neither gold nor stone, and its surface is covered with dense and complex patterns. Just by looking at it, one can feel the vicissitudes of the endless passage of time.
"Altars, altars, they're altars again. Why are there so many altars! Are those old guys from ancient times fucking around?!"
Lin Ling curled his lips and said maliciously.
He has encountered three altars so far. The first one is the altar in Luoxi City, the second one is the altar in Sepaang, and the third one is this huge altar here.
If you observe carefully, you can find that although these three altars have different shapes and sizes, their essential energy structure designs are similar.
In this way, even someone as heartless as Lin Ling would inevitably have some doubts.
What is the use of these altars that are far older than ancient times? Although it is said that in that mythical age when gods still walked the earth, there were countless phenomena of belief in and worship of gods, but how many years have passed?
After such a long time, even the hard astrology stone has weathered and dissipated, but there is still an altar that can still be preserved to this day?
This is different from the ruins of the ancient gods. The biggest reason why the ruins of the ancient gods can be preserved until later generations is that the remaining power of the ancient gods plays a protective role. Lin Ling can clearly feel that these altars have the same power as the ancient gods.
There is an aura of ancient decay, but there is no power of the ancient gods. So what is the power that keeps these altars intact to this day?
"Hey, forget it, the old man said just put the ring on the first thing you see. Then again...how does this have anything to do with Princess Yilin?"
The old man spoke vaguely at the time. Lin Ling didn't know what he wanted to do, but now he simply didn't think about it so much. He took out the ring he took from King Chilu and pointed it toward the altar.
One throw.
Suddenly, a magical scene appeared.
The huge altar, which was originally as silent as stagnant water with no energy response at all, suddenly began to fluctuate as if pebbles had been thrown into the water.
The next moment, from the bottom of the altar deep into the soil, a little bit of shining light appeared, gradually lighting up the magic patterns on the altar.
Although it seems to be very slow, in fact it is an illusion caused by the entire altar being too large. The fluorescence rises rapidly, soon spreading and lighting up the entire altar, and finally bursts out with a buzzing sound.
Bright glow.
Lin Ling looked on in surprise, but he also saw that this seemed to be a critical moment, and he had to continue waiting until the mutation was over.
That ring seemed like a key. The moment it was thrown into the center of the altar, it opened a sealed door, a door leading to the unknown.
Not long after, the fluorescence on the altar changed. The initial fluorescence was somewhat similar to the light of the Holy Light Star, soft but majestic, but now the light gradually became dazzling, developing bit by bit towards the ultimate white light.
When a certain moment was reached, Lin Ling felt that only the blinding white light was left in front of him. The white light suddenly changed again, from white to black, and quickly transformed from white light to black light!
"Hmm. Is this demonic energy?! Is it true that the magic sword Apophis is suppressed down here? Didn't the old man say that it was just a joke?!"
Suddenly, Lin Ling frowned, and saw bursts of black aura suddenly wafting out from under the altar. The aura caused all kinds of chaos in people's hearts the moment they saw it, with chaotic and bloodthirsty emotions.
It grows in my heart.
That is to say, Lin Ling's soul is special. Almost all the power of the soul targeted can only 'act' but not 'have an effect'. In addition, the weak castrated version of the three-soul holy sound from Shuangyue shared was swept away.
The discomfort was quickly isolated from the body.
If it were an ordinary person or a weak-minded person, he might have been taken advantage of by that weird power and lost consciousness directly, turning into a puppet who only knew how to kill.
Observing carefully at this time, Lin Ling even discovered a trace of sharpness contained in the black mist, which instantly reminded him of sword energy!
Is this really the place where the demon sword Apophis was suppressed, and he opened the seal of suppression, so the demon sword will be released?!
But just looking at the movement is too small, right?!
When the demon sword Apophis was alive, wasn't it said that he was lying dead with millions of blood flowing around him? Could it be that after so many years, even a sword can change its evil ways?!
"Master, there does seem to be a sword down here."
Suddenly, Xiaoya spoke hesitantly, making Lin Ling stunned for a moment, and then patted his forehead speechlessly - he had forgotten that even if he could turn into a human form, Xiaoya's body was still a sword!
Just like people who are related by blood often have a magical connection with each other, swords like Xiaoya and others that have reached the level of life will also have some connection with each other, right?
No matter how bad it is, they are like two magnets. There is still some interference between the magnetic fields between them!
If that's the case, could it be that the Demon Sword Apophis is also a member of the Sacred Artifact Clan? Thinking about it, this is indeed a possibility.
"Um?"
Lin Ling's expression suddenly changed, he quickly pulled the girl over, turned around and entered a stealth state.
"Someone is coming!"
Not long after, the sound of footsteps gradually sounded from far to near. Lin Ling, who was hiding in the depths, squinted and found that this girl was actually an acquaintance!
The blond woman in front of her was dressed in white, and she was accompanied by two little girls, one red and one blue. It was Aya, the woman in white who had fought Lin Ling twice in the Starry Night Kingdom, and the pair of twin elves beside her!
After not seeing each other for a few months, Lin Ling discovered that Aya's cultivation level had actually improved again. It had reached the ninth level, and the twin elves beside her, Xiao Hong and Xiao Lan, had actually reached the star level!
Whether it is an elf user or a sacred weapon user, the best way to promote the growth of cultivation is the exchange of body fluids, so to speak...
Lin Ling instantly imagined the scene of three girls, one young, one young, naked, grinding the mirror on the big bed.
"Is someone here already?!" Aya frowned and became alert when she saw the black mist that was still being released from the altar.
"Hey. It couldn't be that the king himself wanted to open the seal, but was swallowed up by the magic sword, right?" Xiaohong, who has always had a fiery personality, couldn't help pouting.
"Xiao Hong, are you an idiot?" Xiao Lan beside her couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "The reason why we and Aya were asked to come here is for this possible magic sword. It is said that this thing is a sacred weapon and an elf with dual race talents.
A magical existence that is one body, what does that kind of existence look like... We really want to see it~"
As she spoke, the blue-haired girl's face showed a look of longing involuntarily.
For an elf, what could be more desirable than a mysterious and powerful elf senior?
"The talents of the two races of the Elf Sacred Artifact are integrated into one? What does this mean?" Lin Ling squinted his eyes in the dark, "And the Elf House actually got involved. I wonder who else will come in?"
And just when Aya was about to take the ring suspended in mid-air, she suddenly felt alert: "Who is that person?!"
Lin Ling was really taken aback and almost ran out of the darkness by himself, but he was still convinced that his stealth was perfect and the other party should not be able to tell.
However, he still increased his vigilance and was prepared to adapt to changes.
"Not coming out?" Aya frowned, as if conveying a message in her soul, "Xiaohong, in that direction, burn him!"
Lin Ling breathed a sigh of relief the moment the flame elf Xiao Hong took action - because the direction of the flame jet was not where he was at all, so someone else had followed him in?!
The perception field quietly opened, and he found a figure crawling there in another dark corner not far away. Of course, the figure seemed to have followed Aya in, and he did not notice Lin Ling's existence.
He must have been a little too excited when he saw the altar, so he leaked some of his breath and was discovered by Aya.
Seeing the flames coming, the almost unavoidable figure finally turned around and avoided the attack of the flames, but at the same time, his figure was exposed from stealth.
It was a man with red hair and enchanting appearance.
Lin Ling checked three times and found that this guy was indeed a man.
Despite his enchanting appearance, the prominent Adam's apple definitely shows the gender of this guy, unless this guy is a helper!
"Ahem...Miss Aya..." The shemale comrade coughed twice and appeared, looking embarrassed.
Aya's face turned cold: "Utok? We are not familiar with each other. Please don't call me by this name. Please call me by my last name Pandora!"
"Ahem, look, we have known each other for such a long time, why is there any need..."
Before he could finish speaking, a sharp sword was already pressed against his throat.
