Chapter 984: Entering the Demon Palace Again
Chapter 984: Entering the Demon Palace Again
All four of them were very careful on the way. They not only slowed down their speed, but also looked around to make sure there was no danger ahead before moving forward.
But strangely, they didn't meet anyone else.
When daybreak came, they unexpectedly reached the platform at the end of the ladder without any hindrance. This was where Qin Yu and his companions were knocked down last time.
After several people climbed onto the platform, they immediately bent down and looked around.
This platform is very wide. It would be a waste if it was only used to connect the ladder to the palace.
Somehow a word suddenly popped up in Qin Yu's mind: Martial Arts Arena
That's right, this platform really looks like a martial arts arena. Both the area and the layout are similar to the martial arts arenas he has seen before, except that if you lose here, you will fall directly from a height of ten thousand meters.
At the other end of the platform is a large stone door, behind which is the palace of the demon god.
Now, one side of the stone gate opened slightly, revealing a gap large enough for one person to pass through. It seemed that someone had entered the Demon Palace from here.
Qin Yu and others found nothing unusual on the platform, so they headed towards the stone gate.
Here, at an altitude of 10,000 meters, the wind was even stronger, blowing their clothes and hair.
Qin Yu was walking in front of the team at this time. He stared at the stone door as he walked and looked, and the whistling wind passed by his ears.
Suddenly the wind picked up, and several people lowered their heads, squinted their eyes, and raised their arms to block the wind.
Qin Yu observed the road under his feet through the gap between his arms. In a trance, he heard the sound of chanting.
The voice was ethereal and distant. At first glance, it had a hint of solemnity, but it was also mixed with too much desire, not like the voice of a person worshiping Buddha.
Qin Yu turned around to look at the others, but they didn't see any unusual reaction, as if they hadn't heard the sound.
He turned around and continued to move forward, but after a few steps, images began to flash before his eyes: the towering Zenith Temple, the terrifying hellish magma, the gods, demons, servants of the gods, blood food...
The scene he had seen in the environment flashed back to him again. Qin Yu stood there in a daze, a drop of sweat slid down his forehead, but was immediately blown away by the strong wind.
“Hey, what are you standing there for!” A shout brought Qin Yu back to reality. Mo Shisan grabbed Qin Yu’s arm and said, “Hurry up, you’re falling behind!”
Qin Yu then saw that the other two had walked several dozen meters ahead and were about to reach the stone gate. He nodded quickly and followed Mo Shisan to catch up.
Qin Yu looked through the gap into the stone door. It was pitch black. Even with his enhanced vision, he couldn't see the scene inside.
The little witch went in first, and when she announced that they could go in, the other three people went in one by one.
After entering, everyone tacitly moved forward in the dark, and no one lit a torch.
These people are veterans who have experienced countless secret adventures. They know that such places are likely to be filled with various traps and prohibitions, so they must be as careful as possible.
As he was walking, Qin Yu heard a muffled sound. He turned his head and saw the little witch sitting on the ground with a wall in front of her.
She was holding her head and said nothing. It looked like she had just been hit hard.
The three men behind her were all stunned, just watching the little witch rubbing her head and making a hissing sound of pain, no one stepped forward to help her
The main reason was that these people had never encountered such a situation before, nor had they imagined such a situation, let alone dared to imagine that such an embarrassing thing would happen to the little witch, so they didn't know what to do for a while.
In the end, it was Qin Yu, who was born an ordinary person, who reacted first. He hurried forward and took the little witch's arm to help her up, and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Are you hurt? Do you want to rest for a while?"
The little witch cried in pain, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "I'm fine. It's mainly because I was unprepared, so I don't have a true Qi shield."
As she spoke, she glanced at the other two people to see if any of them dared to laugh at her.
Fortunately, Prince Qingping and Mo Shisan still had stupid expressions, otherwise the little witch would have exploded on the spot.
Seeing the little witch looking angry and annoyed, the three of them naturally did not dare to offend her. They did not even dare to say anything extra. They all shut up and waited for her to calm down before continuing on their way.
However, this time Qin Yu took the initiative to ask to lead the way, because his eyesight was enhanced. Even though he couldn't see much here, it was better than the other three who were like blind people.
The little witch didn't say much and retreated to the end of the team to be responsible for the safety of the back.
Qin Yu walked cautiously in front, with a thin wooden stick in his hand, which he used to explore the way ahead like a guide stick.
After walking for a while, they could almost figure out that this was a corridor, which was blocked by walls from top to bottom and left to right, so they could only move forward and backward.
This kind of terrain is extremely dangerous if there are any traps set up, and there is no room to hide.
Fortunately, nothing happened along the way and we passed safely. At the end of the corridor was a hall.
Before entering the hall, Qin Yu could already feel the whirring wind, indicating that the front was very open.
After entering the hall, Qin Yu discovered that there were many large rectangular air holes on the walls around the hall, through which he could see the moonlight outside.
The light is not as dark as before. Even though it is still very dim, the overall outline can be roughly seen.
Qin Yu could see even more. The layout of the hall was relatively square, several dozen meters wide and over a hundred meters long.
At the other end opposite them was another gate. The gate was very grand, with a metallic luster from the roof to the ground.
There are two doors on each end of the hall, which are equally magnificent, but slightly smaller than the door at the end.
In the center of the hall is a huge pool with a clear gully in it.
After making sure that there was no one else around, Qin Yu and the others approached the central pool. They lit torches and carefully observed the pool.
"This seems to be a mold, used to cast something." Qin Yu looked at the pool and made a guess.
Mo Shisan, who was not far from him, responded: "Yes, you see there is a channel for injecting metal here."
"But what is this casting for?" Qin Yu couldn't help but be curious. Because the pool was too big, he couldn't see the whole picture.
"You three go to one side, I'll take a look at what this thing is." Under the command of the little witch, the three of them quickly dispersed to the sides.
Then the little witch jumped into the air. While gliding, she stared at the pool again and again.
After landing, the three of them waited for her next instructions without moving.
The little witch didn't say anything, but picked up the torch and ran to the largest door at the end of the hall, looking carefully at it.
Seeing her reaction, several people hurried over. Qin Yu asked curiously, "How is it, Ling'er, what did you see?"
The little witch turned around and said with a confident expression: "I can be sure that the pool is used to forge the key to open this door!"
