Chapter 431: The Palace From Ancient Times
Han Xu seemed to have heard nothing of what Zhu Weitong said. He sat on the broken teleportation array with a dull look.
Zhu Weitong and he were in tune with each other, so she could naturally feel Han Xu's inner grief.
She knew that Han Xu was not a good person in the strict sense, but he was definitely a man who valued friendship and loyalty.
Yan Liuyun sacrificed his life to protect Han Xu and the disciples of Taiyi Dao from death, which must have touched Han Xu greatly.
"Han Xu, cheer up." Zhu Weitong said to Han Xu directly through telepathy. The communication between her and Han Xu did not need to rely on spiritual power to transmit sound, nor did it need to rely on the sound transmission jade slip. This method of telepathy could directly make the sound sound in Han Xu's heart, and he could not help but hear it.
"Yes, now is not the time to be sad." Han Xu was awakened by Zhu Weitong's words. Before he was teleported away, he only saw Yan Liuyun being submerged by the energy of the explosion of the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams Array, but this did not necessarily mean that he died in the explosion.
Perhaps, there might be a miracle?
This world is a world full of miracles, and no matter how bizarre things may happen.
Compared with the skill download system he has, other things are nothing.
If Yan Liuyun is not dead, he must have fallen into the hands of Quanzhen Dao, and Quanzhen Dao will definitely not kill him in order to obtain Taiyi Sanyuan Talisman. Although he will definitely suffer some humiliation, there is always a chance to save him.
If Yan Liuyun is dead, then Han Xu will fulfill his last wish and flatten Quanzhen Dao.
No matter which situation, there is a prerequisite, that is, strength.
Han Xu's current realm is still in the late stage of the Saint Realm. Let alone the Tiangang Beidou Formation, even the elders of Quanzhen Dao are not his opponents.
So the most urgent task is to improve his strength, at least to enter the Creation Realm first.
"Weitong, are you injured?" After Han Xu recovered his spirit, he remembered that Zhu Weitong had endured Hao Hongyuan's sword energy with the power of the Creation Realm in order to save him.
Zhu Weitong was delighted to see Han Xu's expression return to normal. How could her man be so fragile?
She shook her head and said, "I'm fine. Although I was injured before, I have recovered. You know my recovery ability."
"I'm sorry, I was too weak and failed to protect you." Han Xu said guiltily. This was the second time Zhu Weitong was injured to save him.
"Don't say that. You have been practicing for a short time. I believe that in a few years, you will definitely stand at the top of this world."
"Are you so confident in me?"
"Of course, because... because you are my man." When Zhu Weitong said this, her face turned red, which was very beautiful.
"That's not it." Han Xu saw Zhu Weitong's look, and an inexplicable pride arose spontaneously. He looked around and asked, "By the way, what place did you say this place was just now?"
"Look at that stone pillar. It seems to be written as Tiangong." Zhu Weitong pointed in the direction of the stone pillar. Han Xu looked and saw that the word Tiangong was indeed engraved on it.
These two characters were written in a vigorous and smooth manner. Although the stone pillar was covered with cracks, they still exuded an ancient atmosphere.
Just two characters lying on the ground made Han Xu seem to see a magnificent painting, a huge and boundless palace floating in the clouds above the sky, surrounded by auspicious clouds, cranes dancing in it, and immortals flying out with swords from time to time.
Han Xu bit his tongue and broke free from the picture in front of him, and the dilapidated scene was restored in front of him.
"Weitong, did you see anything?"
"Except for these ruins, I didn't see anything else."
Han Xu thought, is it possible that he was the only one who could see the scene just now?
Zhu Weitong continued, "However, I feel an ancient atmosphere here. This should be a relic left over from the era I lived in before."
"What kind of era was the ancient times?"
Zhu Weitong showed a trace of reminiscence and said, "It was a mythical era with many heroes. At that time, both humans and monsters could transform into gods through cultivation."
"It must have been a magnificent era."
"It was also an era more cruel than now. If it weren't for the protection of the powerful, our world would have been plundered by the gods long ago."
"Is the witch god one of them?"
"Yes, if one day I can repair the bridge of heaven and earth, I must kill him to avenge my parents and people!"
"I will definitely help you and let you kill your enemy with your own hands." Han Xu said firmly, "Let's go inside now. Since we were brought here, it's fate."
Han Xu naturally took Zhu Weitong's hand and walked inside.
This place is full of weeds and the soil is very soft. It seems that no one or monster has come here for a long time.
If there were a pair of eyes that could see here, they would find that when Han Xu and Zhu Weitong passed the stone pillar with the words "Heavenly Palace" engraved on it, the space in front of them seemed to ripple like water waves, and then the figures of the two disappeared in the ripples.
But they themselves did not notice it at all, and the scenery around them was the same as what they had seen before, without any change.
Along the way, they saw many spectacular scenes, broken walls as high as mountains, and various animals on a broken mural that were lifelike. Looking closely, they were even moving in the painting, as if they had life.
A red flower in the corner of the wall went through the entire life cycle from germination to growth, blooming, and withering in just ten breaths.
"Weitong, have you heard of this place before?"
Zhu Weitong shook her head and said, "In the past, our Suzaku clan mainly lived in the lower world. In ancient times, the gap between the Tianxuan Realm and the lower world was not as big as it is now. They were almost two parallel worlds."
Han Xu used the system to detect, but he found nothing within the detectable range. You should know that after the system was upgraded, the detection range was also expanded to 100 miles.
But Han Xu felt that this 100-mile range did not even reach the edge of this heavenly palace.
Such speculation, how big this palace should be.
Zhu Weitong was also sensing the surroundings. She had the magical powers of the mythical beast Suzaku, and her perception ability was different from that of humans. She could discover many details that humans could not discover.
After a while, Zhu Weitong said: "Han Xu, I guess the owner of this palace must have been a strong man standing at the top even in ancient times. Even if he is not a god, he should have the strength to rival the gods."
Han Xu nodded. He agreed with Zhu Weitong's statement. In such a palace, the system can't detect anything within a hundred miles. There is only one possibility, that is, the things here exceed the detection ability of the system at the current level.
For example, even if a peerless magic skill that can achieve the world's supreme master is placed in front of Han Xu, the system will not react.
Han Xu's intuition told him that this heavenly palace was not as simple as it seemed. It is said that monsters should be encountered in the area outside the city. The more inaccessible the place is, the more powerful monsters there are. However, there are no signs of life here except for some plants.
After walking for an unknown distance or a long time, Han Xu suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and looked at the sun above his head as if it had never moved. He said to Zhu Weitong: "Weitong, I found something strange."
"What?"
"The time here seems to have never changed."
