Chapter 1160: Someone Came
Translator: 549690339
The blood and Qi in his five internal organs churned violently, causing Tong Yemu to spit out two mouthfuls of blood. When Tong Yemuâs breathing had calmed down, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and threw a fragrant pill into his mouth. He raised his head and saw Xia Ping âan standing by the wall not far away, looking at him in surprise. Xia Pingâ an was neatly dressed and his face was ruddy. He looked calm as if he had come here for a walk, forming a sharp contrast with Tong Muyeâs sorry state.
Tong Yemu even thought that he was hallucinating. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, only to find that Xia Ping âan was already walking towards him.
âSenior Tong, what a coincidence, we meet again! âXia Ping âan greeted Tong Ye Mu.
âStop, if you come any closer, Iâll attack!âTong Yemu roared loudly. His eyes shone brightly and he had already assumed a defensive posture. He raised his palm in front of his chest, and his body emitted a strong fluctuation that seemed like he was about to use a divine spirit skill. He was like a tiger baring its teeth. His eyes vigilantly scanned the environment in the hall, and he was still in a state of shock.â
He didnât know what this Tong Yemu had gone through before, but it seemed like he was a little too careful. His appearance was quite pitiful.
Xia Ping âan muttered to himself, but he could understand why. He didnât go forward, but instead took a few steps back, putting some distance between him and Tong Yemu. Spreading his hands, he said,â Senior, donât be so agitated. 1 am the Dragon Rearing Cicada, and this is the core of the Extreme King Palace. It seems that you can enter here after passing the fifth stage!ââ
Tong Yemu still looked at Xia Pingan suspiciously.â Why did you get here before me? Have you passed the fifth stage?ââ
âHmph, do you think everyone is like you? You donât have the ability, so you think others donât have the ability. This little girl hasnât even lost a single hair, and sheâs already been here for two days! âThe old man who was trapped in the light curtain of the altar finally couldnât help but mock.
âWho, who is speakingâŠâ Hearing this voice, Tong Yemu was startled. He immediately looked around like a porcupine with hair standing on end. Hundreds of cold flying swords suddenly appeared around his body, ready to attack. Tong Yemu had entered the hall just behind the old man who was trapped in the light curtain of the sacrificial altar. Just now, Tong Yemuâs vision was blocked by the sacrificial altar, so he didnât notice that there were actually two people in the hall.
âLook at your gutsâŠâ The old man mocked again.
Tong Yemu was too nervous now. He was jittery and thought that this was some kind of checkpoint. However, this was understandable. He had to calm down first.
Xia Pingan did not say anything. He continued to walk to the side of the wall and began to study the patterns on the wall. After a few days of study, Xia Pingan had actually gained some understanding of the patterns on the wall that could move. He gradually gained some understanding.
The patterns on the wall seemed to be all-encompassing and messy, but in fact, the mountains, rivers, birds, beasts, and various people would form different divinatory symbols when they were combined. However, at this moment, the divinatory symbols formed by those patterns and animals had been completely messed up, so people could not find any clues.
Even though the old man in the light curtain of the sacrificial altar had been trapped here for tens of thousands of years, he still couldnât see through the mysteries of the patterns on the wall. He could only see a little clue. If those patterns and divinatory symbols on the wall were arranged and combined according to different directions, the possibility of their formation would be almost infinite. If he didnât understand the logic behind it, even if he was locked here for another 100,000 years, he would still be able to see through it. It was also impossible to decipher the mystery of the surrounding wall.
The circular walls, the eight-story square altar, the various statues with various divinatory symbols, and the word âEmperorâ made Xia Pingan feel that he had already grasped the mysteries of this hall. He just needed to wait for the later confirmation.
After being nervous for a while, Tong Yemu found it was quiet in the palace. Nobody paid attention to him anymore. Neither did any attack or danger approach him. Therefore, he gradually relaxed. After a short while, he put away those flying swords and started to observe the details in the palace. He also found that old man who was trapped in the light curtain of the sacrificial altar. However, that old man just threw a contemptuous glance at him. Closely after that, he just closed his eyes and started to meditate. As for that old man, he had to say,â He didnât seem to believe that Tong Yemu could save him, so he didnât bother to say anything.
After more than an hour, Tong Yemu finally came to Xia Pinganâs side with a smile on his face.â Ahem, little kid, Iâm sorry about what happened just now. I thought there would be another trap waiting for me here. You can understand, right? The previous trap almost cost me half my life. It made me suspicious of everything!â
Xia Ping âan turned his head and looked at Tong Yemu with a smile.â Itâs alright, I can understand. This Netherworld City Secret Realm is indeed full of dangers. Senior, itâs not wrong to be careful!â
âYouâre the best at talking!âTong Yemu smiled at once, then he started to inquire about the information here,â Oh right, where is this place? Who is that old man trapped on the first floor of the sacrificial altar? And do you know what is in the treasure box on the top of the sacrificial altar?ââ
Xia Pingan did not hide these questions and told Tong Yemu the relevant information concisely.
âI see. 1 didnât expect this place to be so shocking. The screen of light and the hall couldnât be destroyed!âTong Yemu sucked in a breath of cold air and poked the wall in front of him. He used his divine power to feel it and scratched his head.â Did you see anything special about this wall?ââ
Even if I can tell, I canât tell you. This is related to the ownership of the treasures here!
Xia Pingan shook his head seriously.â Iâve only been here for two days, but I still havenât seen through the mysteries of this wall. Senior, youâre very knowledgeable. 1 wonder if youâve seen something?â
âWell, let me take a serious lookâŠâ Tong Yemu laughed guiltily. His eyes were fixed on the wall as he pondered,â This wall might be some kind of formation or mechanism. The moving statues on it are the keyâŠâ
âYes, so we have to figure out the mysteries of this wall in the next few days. Otherwise, we wonât be able to get whatâs inside the treasure chest!â
Tong Yemu suddenly looked troubled.â Alas, after hearing what you said, itâs a bit difficult. Thereâs only one treasure box, but there are two of us now. I wonât have any psychological barriers when 1 rob other peopleâs things, but 1 feel a bit sorry and embarrassed when 1 rob your things. What should 1 do?ââ
Xia Pingan did not expect this old man to be so cute and genuine, to actually be able to say such words.
âSenior, donât worry. If I can really get through the layers of barriers and get the treasure chest, since 1 have the ability, you wonât be able to get it even if you want to. If you have the ability, I wonât be jealous.â
Tong Yemuâs face softened at once. He smiled and nodded casually.â Youâre right. If 1 get that treasure chest, Iâll definitely give you some benefits!ââ âThank you, Senior!â Xia Ping âan smiled and said,â However, Senior, donât be careless. At this moment, there are only the two of us here, but there are still more than 30 days left. During this period of time, who knows how many people will come here!ââ
âThatâs true!â Tong Yemu looked around.â Iâve been tormented these days. After hearing what you said, I should hurry up and recover, so that I wonât be at a disadvantage when I fight with others here!ââ
After Tong Yemu finished speaking, he found a corner in the hall and sat down cross-legged to recover.
Half a day later, a light flashed in the hall. Qu Linggui, whose body was smoking and whose face was pale, rushed in with a broken arm. The moment he rushed in, he saw Xia Ping âan. His expression changed, and a trace of malevolence and killing intent flashed across his face. Then, he saw Tong Yemu was also there. His expression changed slightly, and the trace of malevolence and killing intent disappeared without a trace.
âHahaha, Old Ghost Qu, oh Old Ghost Qu, youâre in such a sorry state. You even lost one of your hands. Do you want me to give you some medicine?âWhen Tong Ye Mu saw Qu Linggui enter, he immediately became spirited and started to mock him..
