After a full quarter of an hour, Xu Xiaoshou saw that Xiao Kongtong's face was already covered with fine sweat, and he couldn't help but ask.
"Big! Too big!"
Xiao Kongtong turned around, without sheathing his sword, but sent out a ray of spiritual thought in response:
"The interior of the Sin Palace is actually a bit bigger than I imagined. The speed of my Wanjian Technique search has been extremely fast, and all kinds of results have been calculated, but until now, I still haven't been able to find a normal answer."
"After all, this is the most laborious way to solve a problem." Xu Xiaoshou pondered.
As the senior brother of Shenyue Immortal City, Xiao Kongtong’s strength is beyond doubt.
In a quarter of an hour, Xu Xiaoshou estimated that the area as large as half of the Miracle Forest might have been explored by Xiao Kongtong with the Void Sword.
But there is no result yet, does that mean there is a possibility that there will be no result in the future?
"What if the existence of the maze is just a cover-up method that misleads people to focus on solving the maze itself, and it is not until the end that they discover that there is no connection between the maze and the main hall?" Xu Xiaoshou touched his chin.
"I can't rule out this possibility." Mei Siren nodded and knocked on the paper fan. "Perhaps it is easier to crack it with brute force than with ingenuity... Well, it means solving the problem."
"Brute force?" Xu Xiaoshou was startled.
If Senior Brother's "immortal guidance" can be considered a skill, then what is a true barbaric act?
"Cracking this palace with one sword may trigger the stress response and find the way to the main palace." Mei Si said with a somewhat serious expression.
"..." As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiaoshou and Mu Zixi fell silent immediately.
"No." Xiao Kongtong shook his head and said, "I saw a large number of Void Servants in the palace, almost six to seven hundred of them. Drawing a sword will only provoke them, and it will be a waste of time later. After all, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes...
Well, besides that, I also discovered something weird."
"Oh?" The three of them looked at each other.
"Have you not noticed that the Jedi attribute of the Sin Palace has been activated, and the power in our bodies is being lost at an extremely slow rate, but the rate of loss of this power is not equal, it is almost doubling every hour.
”Xiao Kongtong’s face was solemn.
Only then did a few people start to observe themselves.
Xu Xiaoshou was the first to discover that the "endless life" was quietly and extremely slowly running.
But the speed of operation is accelerating little by little, which means that the loss of life energy in his body is also accelerating.
Maybe the initial speed is not big but the acceleration is big!
According to this development...
Within an hour, "endless life", "full vitality" and "transformation" were all activated to fight against the loss of vitality.
In less than half a day, this confrontation between "out" and "in" may reach a stalemate.
In less than a day, he will have to take drugs to save his life!
"It's even more exaggerated than when you faced the water ghost's water polo pumping power under the deep sea..."
Xu Xiaoshou felt his scalp numb. This initial weak nibbling was the least noticeable, but if he really didn't pay attention, he might be dead by the time he realized something was wrong.
Xiao Kongtong glanced at several people, and after seeing that everyone was alert, he continued:
"I also saw a few corpses in the maze. A small number of them were not human-like. They were obviously attacked by the Void Warriors."
"But most of the body is well preserved, but all the vitality has been lost and drained."
"I think they should have fallen into the Sin Palace from the beginning. After seeing the Queen of the Void, they tried to stay still and act according to the opportunity, but they were unable to move again."
Mu Zixi was so frightened that she took out a jelly bean-like elixir and put it into her mouth to replenish her vitality. She said vaguely, "Does that mean the time left for us is running out?" She is also an alchemist.
"Not more, not less. There are at least three days left, if we are not delayed." Xiao Kongtong glanced at a few people and gave a more accurate judgment. After all, they are not ordinary people.
people.
hold up
?
Xu Xiaoshou keenly caught this word and his eyes flashed.
Xiao Kongtong looked over, paused and said: "I found two people, the Jiang family's half-saint, and the king of hell's orange-faced man, heaven, human and five degenerates. They have begun to come towards us, looking for the little sword of the void.
In the opposite direction...I have already broken off the small void swords around that place."
Jiang Buyi?
Xu Xiaoshou quickly glanced at his junior sister, his heart racing a little, that old thing is here again?
As for the five declines of heaven and man...who is this?
"Can you find a direction to move forward?" Mei Siren asked the key question aloud. He didn't care who came or went, he only cared about whether the ultimate goal of the trip could be achieved.
Xiao Kongtong shook his head.
The same road, the endless corners...
The maze was so big that he couldn't give a definite answer.
"Perhaps, the teacher's suggestion just now is a good choice." Xu Xiaoshou glanced at Mr. Siren, and suddenly felt that a sword slashing the hall and releasing the unknown was the best way to solve the problem.
Difficult?
Then don’t do it!
At this moment, the entire Sin Palace maze made a loud bang and began to shake.
The wall split, creating smooth lines.
The space was distorted, figures were misaligned, and it seemed that all the rules were thrown out of whack under the loud noise and began to be reset.
"What's going on?" Mu Zixi couldn't help but get closer to her senior brother, a little panicked about the unknown change.
"Don't be afraid, we have Mr. Siren..." Xu Xiaoshou looked around and reached out to grab it. After thinking about it for a while, he felt uneasy and said, "How about you go back to the Yuanfu world first? I'm afraid that this maze will come later.
If you teleport to a random space or something, then it’s over..."
With a snap, Xu Xiaoshou grabbed the junior sister's hand, but felt his eyes blur, as if something had changed.
Mr. Si Ren, who was supposed to be in the front, all smiled and disappeared.
The end of the labyrinth wall was originally an endless passage, but it was replaced not far away by an extremely ancient wall carved with murals.
At this time, he keenly noticed that the touch coming from the palm of his right hand that was holding the little junior sister was also completely different...
It didn't seem to be the delicate, delicate and vital skin unique to the little junior sister, but a hairy and hard touch, like a hand grasping the feathers of a bird.
"brush!"
Xu Xiao turned his head at the speed of light.
At the moment when he only looked back, his face had already completely changed. This was not only a manifestation of anxiety, but also a natural talent that had been trained after numerous crises unexpectedly struck him.
The man next to him seemed to be equally surprised. He tilted his head and turned sideways.
Xu Xiaoshou saw a stunningly beautiful face.
She has cherry-like red lips, a high and straight nose, and white and translucent skin on both sides. Only a pair of eyes that are pressed down by a hood and covered by a shadow cannot see clearly.
But only the lower half of the face is already extremely moving.
"Feel sorry……"
Xu Xiaoshou seemed to be stunned for a moment, but in fact his thoughts were running wildly. He searched in his mind whether he had ever seen the person in front of him who was wearing a black feather coat and looked huge in frame, but actually had such a delicate little face.
the answer is……
No!
Never seen it before!
His eyes glanced over and fell on the shoulders of this extremely tall beauty, where there was a crow with only three legs.
"I seem to have seen you somewhere?" Without any pause, a look of memory appeared in Xu Xiaoshou's eyes, "Girl, you look a lot like one of my friends..."
I suddenly felt a tingling sensation on my hands.
Xu Xiaoshou's heart trembled, and his "Perception" swept away, only to find that he was still holding the woman's hand.
This figure seemed to be shrouded in biting cold, and his hand was stretched into the dark realm around her, so he was frostbitten.
"I'm sorry, the space was messed up just now, I caught the wrong person."
Xu Xiaoshou let go of the hand covered by the feather coat, raised his eyes, and felt that the woman's face was suddenly a little blurry in his mind.
After he solemnly stared at the memory for a few more times, he said: "Chen Tan, do you dare to ask the girl her name?"
First of all, the ability to make one's body feel tingling is by no means simple. This guarantee is too weak.
Secondly, being able to go to the Palace of Sin alone, theoretically speaking, this is a character that neither Shuangdai nor Hong Dang can possibly possess. She should not be an ordinary Taixu.
In the end, relying on this face to judge... can it affect other people's memory of her? This is not much different from the highest level of "hiddenness", right? This woman is absolutely extraordinary!
"Received gaze, passive value, +1."
No reply, no unnecessary action.
The woman wearing a black feathered cloak stared at Xu Xiaoshou quietly with her eyes hidden in the shadows, until the chill around her became deeper and deeper, and the light became sparser, as if everything was about to fall into the Nine Nether Cold Prison.
"It's impossible for her to see my face before the change. My reaction is already the fastest."
"I have 'invisibility.' If we are teleported together at the same time, I will be the first to discover the identity of others, and no one else will sense my situation in advance."
"I will not expose the secret, even if she is Xu Xiaoshou's enemy, an enemy that even Xu Xiaoshou himself does not know..."
Xu Xiaoshou instantly confirmed in his mind that his face-changing speed was faster than the speed of light, and then he faced the woman's gaze into the darkness without fear.
It wasn't until a long time passed that he lowered his head.
"I'm sorry, girl, if there was anything rude just now, I apologize to you. It was out of urgency." Xu Xiaoshou raised his hand, indicating that it was not intentional.
"I think the most important thing for us now is to find out the changes in the Sin Palace Labyrinth, rather than creating extraneous problems and making enemies for ourselves, right?" He smiled.
no respond.
Is she mute?
Xu Xiaoshou finally twitched the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but want to complain.
How can a person remain silent even when encountering a sudden change? Only people who can't speak can do that, right?
"This seems to be a main hall?"
Xu Xiaoshou ignored it and turned around to look at the surrounding environment, worrying about the situation over there with his junior sister.
The maze wall no longer existed, and the prophecy seemed to have come true. After the space was disrupted, he and Mr. Mito and others were separated and teleported to this main hall.
The empty main hall is held up by twelve extremely large pillars. The walls around the hall are covered with ancient giant murals. In front of it is a very high cliff...well, steps.
If you go up, you can cross the Xiao wall and enter the hall.
"Is this the main hall of the Sin Palace?"
Xu Xiaoshou felt a little like a dream. If he arrived at the target location, would it be too sudden?
But soon he realized that he had taken it for granted that this should not be the main hall of the Sin Palace, because when he raised his eyes he saw the plaque at the top with ancient inscriptions on it.
"Hall of Immortality."
Xu Xiaoshou read it out.
Just like the plaque of "The First Hall of Sin", it is clear that Void Island is a kingdom of giants, and the giants also use the language of the Void Giants, but the words left behind are all ancient characters that can be traced on the Holy Continent.
"Have you ever heard of the 'Unforgiveness Hall, girl?'" Xu Xiaoshou said without looking back, and then walked inside, obviously not thinking that the mute would answer.
"Your cultivation is very weak." At this moment, a deep hoarse voice came from behind. The voice was very strange, neither male nor female, more androgynous, which was extremely inconsistent with her beautiful appearance.
Xu Xiaoshou paused and turned around with a smile: "Yes, I have not yet achieved the perfect level of spiritual cultivation, but this is not my major. I have other abilities."
"Why are you here?" the black-feathered woman said calmly.
When Xu Xiaoshou was observing the surrounding environment, he had already thought about what would happen if this woman spoke.
It’s just that you are so weak, how dare you enter the Sin Palace? How did you enter the Void Island? What do you want to do when you come here? What is your purpose? Is Chen Tan your real name? You look a lot like Xu Xiaoshou, after all.
In this world, only Xu Xiaoshou is so weak and courageous...etc.
He now has at least thirteen solutions to this problem.
"I come from the Southern Territory. I am the 16th generation of Qingjing Menting. I major in martial arts, but I like swordsmanship. I have been seeking swords from the famous Feng family for a while, and I think I have achieved some success now.
, at least I can protect myself in this poor place..." Xu Xiaoshou revealed the identity information that was born in his heart when he changed his face just now.
But he stopped, and after a pause, he threw the question back with a smile, as if his original intention was to exchange information, so he said so much.
"What about you, girl? I've said so much, why don't you talk about yourself? Why are you here?"
The black feather woman still didn't reply.
Xu Xiaoshou felt a little bored.
Sure enough, this woman was still mute at heart, so he turned around and wanted to continue exploring the "Hall of Unforgiveness".
Suddenly, the surrounding environment seemed to darken, Xu Xiaoshou's heart beat suddenly, and the information bar also popped up.
"Under sneak attack, passive value, +1."
"Land of Night!"
With a low groan, darkness invaded everything around him like a tide.
Endless coldness arose in the vast hall, and ghosts burst out of the black earth with their claws and teeth. Some clung to the pillars of the palace, and some were swimming in the void, but most of them rushed toward Xu Xiaoshou.
.
"I know that a battle is inevitable, wouldn't it be better if I came earlier?"
Xu Xiaoshou sneered, and he turned around defensively, tiptoeing a little, and the dark sword named "Ghost Lottery" lit up in his eyes. He immediately saw through everything and passed through the flowers without touching a leaf.
At the same time, point your fingers up to your chest and make a seal with one hand.
While avoiding the attack, his body was tilted in the air, with his black hair flying, and his whole body was already filled with spiritual energy.
The next second, an evil purple light suddenly appeared on the land of the night, and a mysterious pupil appeared above Xu Xiaoshou's head.
The purple light in his pupils flooded out, shining instantly on all the ghosts like the sun.
"The evil eye turns evil!"
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... -" Youyin screamed, and everyone fled away with their heads in their hands. They seemed to be affected by the mental pollution and completely lost the target of the attack.
"'Ghost Swordsmanship, Ghost Lottery, Southern Territory Magic, Chen Tan..." The black-feathered woman's red lips were half-opened, as if she was muttering to herself, and then the spiritual energy around her body gathered, and the power of the land of night also returned to herself.
Darkness recedes just as quickly as it comes, like the ebbing tide after high tide, disappearing.
The black-feathered woman took a step forward, seemingly no longer doubting anything, and proactively said, "My name is Ye Xiao."
