Ch261 - The Palace Gates Opens

Relying on the sale of information, Liu Mufeng made another small profit by helping other cultivators translate the Tianyan Clan scripts on the Ten Gates. Of course, Liu Mufeng only told them about the outside of the gate, but did not divulge any information on what was inside these gates. Especially what he knew about the situation in the few of the gates, he didn’t tell anyone.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the opening of the Ten Palaces. Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu had already made preparations earlier and appeared outside the Golden Gate early, waiting to enter the Golden Gate.

Seeing the figures of Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, many cultivators who wanted to enter the Golden Gate stood behind the two in a tacit understanding, keeping a certain distance from them. Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu had killed Hua Cheng, the long-famous Town Lord of Xianghe Town, and Bai Xiong, the former Lord of Huo City. Both of them had the strength of nine-stars in the Spiritual Emperor Realm, and they were both long timers of the Spiritual Emperor Realm, especially Bai Xiong. Bai Xiong himself had been a three-star cultivator of the Spiritual Profound Realm, but because of his injuries that had been left untreated, he fell to the Spiritual Emperor Realm. Nine-star cultivators, such as those two, had stronger fighting power than ordinary cultivators in the Spiritual Emperor Realm. However, even such a person had died at the hands of the couple, how could other cultivators not be afraid of them?

Of course, putting Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu in front was also to let them help block some traps and dangers.

Seeing the other cultivators behave in such a way, Liu Mufeng, who had expected it, did not take it seriously. Looking at his lover, Liu Mufeng asked him worriedly. “Have you put on your soft armor?”

“Don’t worry, I’m all armored up.” Smiling, Jiang Xu replied helplessly, Mufeng had already asked him several times since they started their preparations this morning.

“En, remember to let the Spiritual White Rabbits go first when the gate opens, don’t touch the ground with your feet, I will carry you when the time comes, and you just need to be responsible for letting go of the rabbits.” Liu Mufeng instructed again.

“Yes, you’ve already said it five times.”Jiang Xu said helplessly.

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng couldn’t laugh or cry. “Why, you already dislike me for nagging?”

“No, no!” He was indeed a bit nagging, but Jiang Xu knew that Mufeng was really worried about him, afraid that he would be in danger.

“You are obviously just appeasing me.” Seeing his wife’s perfunctory appearance, Liu Mufeng pinched the tip of Jiang Xu’s little nose unhappily.

“Ow, it hurts!” Wrinkling his nose, Jiang Xu dissatisfiedly looked at his husband who was making a move in the crowd.

“Hmph! Let’s see if you dare to think I’m nagging, and if you take my words for granted.” Liu Mufeng said angrily.

“No, no!” Rubbing his nose, Jiang Xu hastily denied it.

“You, now you are more and more perfunctory.” Liu Mufeng sighed lightly as he looked at his wife helplessly.

“Who was the one who was nagging like an old monk!” With his head down, Jiang Xu said sullenly.

“What are you talking about?” Hearing his wife’s thoughts, Liu Mufeng couldn’t help but frown.

“zf, Jf!” lILsQJN IQA ITLB, XQLJN jU ILAdQYp BTJQTB Qd.

Liu Mufeng released a part of his soul power, wanting to take a look at the Palace at the end of the corridor. However, as soon as he released it, he felt that his soul power was being swallowed by something. He immediately recalled his soul power and couldn’t explore the road at all. Not being able to find the way made Liu Mufeng very depressed. Although he had read the original work, some of the understanding in the original work was different from his personal experience.

“This height is only two meters, we can’t fly, even if we want to.”

“That’s right, the height is too low, and the aisle is so long, it must be a mechanism.”

“That’s right, it looks eerie, and smells like a rotten corpse”

“Yeah, it looks very dangerous.”

“I don’t know which Palace this door leads to?”

“This corridor feels full of murderous intent.”

“No way!”

Standing behind Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, the other cultivators did not dare to go in, so they could only stand and discuss.

The Ten Gates were all opened at the same time and many cultivators had already entered the other gates, but no one went in from the Golden Gate. Accompanied by the entrance of the other cultivators were the sound of screams, echoing one after another, and the other cultivators were a little terrified.

Because Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu were standing outside the Golden Gate, the number of cultivators outside the gate was the least among the Ten Gates. Including Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, there were only a total of 28 people. Most of these 28 people came to the Golden Gate because they knew that the Golden Gate led to the Golden Light Palace. Twenty-five of the twenty-eight people were cultivators possessing a Golden Spiritual Root, and only three were not.

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Xu directly released two Spiritual White Rabbits. The freed Spiritual White Rabbits immediately ran towards the end of the corridor. These demon beasts had the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil. Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu were both in the Spiritual Emperor Realm, so the rabbits were very afraid of them and they just wanted to leave them quickly, so they all ran fast.

“Pa pa pa pa...”

Suddenly, small holes appeared on the left and right sides of the stone walls and fifth-level spiritual arrows shot out of the small holes. The two rabbits were shot into hedgehogs in an instant, and their bodies fell directly to the ground.

With his arms around his wife’s waist, Liu Mufeng used his spiritual power and his feet immediately floated up. At a height of five centimeters from the ground, he quickly flew into the corridor and landed next to the corpses of the two rabbits.

Seeing his lover stop, Jiang Xu immediately released four more rabbits.

The four rabbits that were released ran forward in different routes. As a result, they all fell into the flap, and the four rabbits disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Quickly thinking about the routes of the four rabbits in his mind, Liu Mufeng immediately chose the safest route and floated forward.

Seeing that Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu had already entered the corridor, the other cultivators also entered the Golden Gate one after another.

“Pa pa pa…”

As soon as they entered the corridor, several people were shot and killed by the rain of arrows that flew out. After that, many of the cultivators fell into the flap and disappeared. Even though many of them also prepared demon beasts to explore the way, they still couldn’t escape bad luck.

After passing through the arrow rain mechanism and the flap mechanism, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu came to the nail plate mechanism area ahead.

Seeing that the three rabbits were all crushed to death by the nail plate that suddenly fell from the top of their heads, Liu Mufeng frowned involuntarily, and he contemplated:This level is not easy to pass. This thing fell from the top of the head, and it has already killed two groups of six rabbits one after another. There is no pattern on the way it falls.

“XiaoXu, the shield!” Liu Mufeng said to his wife.

“Okay.” Nodding, Jiang Xu raised his hand, and five shields flew forward. Liu Mufeng saw the right moment, took his wife to hide under the shield, and floated through the nail plate area.

Turning around, looking at the five smashed shields, Jiang Xu secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and thought in his heart:Fortunately, Mufeng is fast enough, otherwise, even if he didn’t die, he would be seriously injured!

After releasing another set of 2 rabbits, Jiang Xu and Liu Mufeng continued to explore the way. They watched the two rabbits running and suddenly disappeared. Jiang Xu was slightly taken aback, and he threw out two more rabbits, but the result was the same, the rabbits suddenly disappeared while running. This time they heard more screams behind them, “Mufeng, what’s going on here? Didn’t you see any hidden weapons?”

“It should be an insect mechanism. Insect mechanism is a kind of transparent bug, difficult to see with the naked eye. They like to eat meat. Many Mechanism Masters liked to raise this kind of insect to arrange trapping mechanisms.” Liu Mufeng frowned.

“Then, what should we do?” Jiang Xu also frowned when he heard that the bugs were blocking the way.

“Try it with Beast Fire.” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng released his Flame Eagle.

As soon as the Flame Eagle flew out, it spit out a big mouthful of fire, and heard crackling sounds from the flames.

“There really is something there.” Hearing that crackling sound of something being burned to a crisp, Jiang Xu immediately realized that there were indeed many tiny invisible insects.

“Let the Flame Dragon come out and wrap us in flames, so that we can pass.” Liu Mufeng said so. In the original book, the protagonist used this method to pass through this area of mechanism insects.

“Okay.” Nodding, Jiang Xu released the Flame Dragon and both were directly wrapped in its flames. Under the cover of the Flame Eagle hovering a step in front of them, the two passed through the territory of the insect’s mechanism without any risk.

Another three rabbits were released. Looking at the rabbit who was shot by darts flying from the walls on both sides within two steps, Jiang Xu frowned. “These darts are so powerful, they seem to be sixth-level.”

“En, it’s really powerful.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng agreed.

“Then, what should we do?” Jiang Xu said helplessly.

“There is no good way, we can only force our way through” As he spoke, Liu Mufeng took out a board that was one person tall and two meters long. This board was also refined by Xiaoyuan, and it was refined from fifth-level demon beast bones. However, Liu Mufeng asked Xiaoyuan to repeatedly temper it more than a dozen times, and the thickness of the board was five times thicker than the shield.

“Oh!” Seeing his lover’s actions, Jiang Xu immediately took out the other board. Xiaoyuan had refined two boards in total, one for each of them. There was a handle on the inside of the board. The two grabbed the handle and floated directly into the dart area.

“Bang bang bang…” The hexagonal darts shot out from the left and right side of the walls like pieces of silver snowflakes, and frantically attacked the two.

Although it only took five seconds for the two to go forth, they were still attacked by hundreds of darts, and the board in their hands was horribly riddled with holes.

“How are you? Are you injured?” Throwing away the scrapped board in his hand, Liu Mufeng looked at his wife.

“I’m okay.” As he said, Jiang Xu also threw away the board in his hand, lowered his head, pulled out two darts from his legs, and hurriedly took the healing medicinal pill.

Seeing that his lover was injured, Liu Mufeng immediately took out the wound medicine to bandage his wife’s wound.

“Mufeng, this corridor is so long, when will it end?” Looking at the long corridor, Jiang Xu said depressingly.

“Don’t worry, let’s walk slowly.” This corridor was full of obstacles, every ten meters was an area riddled with mechanisms. Liu Mufeng did not dare to walk too fast, he must understand the situation of each area, and then figure out a way to walk through it .
