Eternal Tranquility

Chapter 1695 Ghost Eagle



On the stone wall, a huge hole was exposed in front of the two of them. Outside the hole was boundless darkness, and the cold wind howled in, making Yue Yue even stand still.

He carefully examined the edge of the cave entrance and said: "The black stone is scorched and withered, the fire marks are obvious, and the edge is as round and smooth as melted ice. It should have been bombarded by a powerful spell, causing irreparable damage."

Many powerful spells destroy the entire defense system. Unless all the nearby walls are demolished, refined and rebuilt, it will be difficult to plug this hole, because even if it is plugged, it will soon be blown down by strong winds.

"Be careful where you step!" Liu Qinghuan warned. He had already stepped onto the stone steps. The entire stone steps were almost completely exposed to the strong wind from the outside. They were suspended in the air and had several broken steps in the middle, which were exactly the same as the damage to the wall.

The steady footsteps moved upward slowly, and the wind blew Liu Qinghuan's large silver-white robe up and down, as if riding the wind and riding on the clouds, calm and relaxed.

Yue Jie followed, but from time to time he looked out at the endless darkness outside Senluo Hall.

"Is there really nothing out there?"

"I don't know." Liu Qinghuan also turned around and glanced: "If you are curious, you can go out and explore, but be careful of the confusion."

"Confusion?"

"Well, I suspect there are obstacles outside to prevent anyone from finding the boundaries of the space here."

"So what if we find it?" Yue Jie was puzzled: "Can we still destroy the border?"

Liu Qinghuan said calmly: "If you know the boundary, you can follow the clues and slowly find out the specific location. From this, you may explore more secrets of Senluo Palace."

He looked up and chuckled: "Just like what we are doing now, we are going to explore the secrets hidden in Senluo Palace."

Yue Jie looked up and found that the stone steps seemed to have no end, stretching all the way into the mist at a high altitude, making it impossible to see through the situation above.

He looked back again, and saw that he was already quite far away from the hole below. The dim, ever-burning lamp was blown by the wind and seemed to be extinguished at any time, shaking out weird and terrifying shadows on the wall.

"Do you think..." Yue Jie said with a straight face: "We have been walking on this staircase for a long time, but we haven't reached the top yet. Is it strange?"

"Because we have walked it three times." Liu Qinghuan said very calmly, with no intention of stopping as he stepped across a stone step broken into two parts.

"Just like this stone staircase, this is the fourth time we have passed it."

Yue Jie looked around and asked, "Have you already figured out how to crack it?"

"It's just a cover-up. It should prevent those cheap monks from approaching the forbidden area above." Liu Qinghuan said.

"Then why aren't you broken yet?" Yue Jie looked sideways.

Liu Qinghuan turned her head, raised her hand and pointed at the wall, and said with a smile: "Because I want to see if it will be anxious."

Yue Jian looked over and found nothing in a blink of an eye. When he looked carefully, he saw that the rough stones were slightly raised, forming a vague grimace.

"I learned well this time and knew not to open my eyes." Liu Qinghuan joked.

"Hey! You've been discovered, stop pretending!" Yue Zhi couldn't help but remind the other party.

The grimace finally couldn't hold on any longer, opened his eyes suddenly, glared at the two of them fiercely, and then wanted to run away!

A faint light hit the wall, and the sinking stone surface was forcibly pulled out. Then a black thing rolled down and hit the stone steps with a bang.

"I can't let you run away this time." Liu Qinghuan waved his sleeves, and a large piece of dim light fell down and quickly condensed into a cage.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The hanging-eyed ghost eagle found out that it was locked up. It banged around in the cage angrily and screamed angrily, "Woo, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah".

"Speak carefully!" Liu Qinghuan warned: "If you curse again, you will go back to the underworld and be tortured!"

The hanging-eyed ghost eagle froze for an instant, staring at him as if he had seen a ghost.

Yue Jie was also stunned for a moment: "Do you understand what it says?"

"Yes." Liu Qinghuan stood with his hands behind his hands and said, "It speaks the ancient Ming language, a ghost language that has almost been lost and can only be heard in the underworld."

He bent slightly and said, "Tell me, why are you following us, and why are you leading us here?"

"Bang bang bang!" He was answered by the ghost eagle's even more crazy collisions and violent roars.

Liu Qinghuan frowned, put his two fingers together, and a black-red magic light shined into the cage!

Just listen to the hanging-eyed ghost eagle scream, and then no longer make a sound, but as if it is suffering the most severe punishment, it rolls over and over in the cage, its body keeps twisting and shaking.

Liu Qinghuan knelt down and asked, "Can you speak properly?"

Gui Diao nodded desperately, and then he waved his hand to relieve the punishment.

The ghost eagle curled up and made a low, hoarse sound like a ghost crying. Liu Qinghuan's face was expressionless at first, but slowly he showed a look of surprise.

Yue Jie didn't understand and asked, "Master, what did it say?"

"It said..." Liu Qinghuan's expression became enigmatic: "They are the slaves of Senluo Palace and have guarded this hall for generations. Now the master position of Senluo Palace has been vacant for a long time, so they are looking for the next master."

"Wha, what master?" Yue Zhi was so shocked that he almost jumped up: "Can Senluo Palace still recognize its master?"

"Whoa whoa whoa whoa," the hanging-eyed ghost eagle babbled again.

"What does it say?"

"Its mind is a little confused." Liu Qinghuan frowned, trying to straighten out the other party's confusing words.

"It mentioned a few names. I won't go into details. They should be the former masters of Senluo Palace. And this palace can indeed recognize the owner. It seems that you have to pass some test and then sign a contract before you can become the master of Senluo Palace."

Yue Jie looked up at the top of the steps: "So, what kind of restricted area is a test?"

"It should be." Liu Qinghuan said, turning around and asking the Diaoyan Ghost Eagle in Mingyu: "You want to find the master, why did you find me?"

The Ghost Eagle timidly stretched out a paw and pointed at the Hades Seal on his waist.

Liu Qinghuan looked down and found that Gui Chi, who was entrenched on the underworld seal, seemed to be lying motionless, but in fact he had been listening with his ears raised.

He stroked his forehead wordlessly, and his eyes met Gui Chi's two small eyes. The other party immediately buried his head arrogantly, pretending not to know anything.

So Liu Qinghuan turned around and asked Gui Diao: "What are the benefits of becoming the master of Senluo Palace?"

But he didn't expect that these words were like lighting up a firecracker. The ghost eagle jumped up excitedly, grabbed the cage and roared at him.

"What's wrong with it?" Yue Jie asked.

"You are scolding me!" Liu Qinghuan said: "They say that becoming the master of Senluo Palace is a supreme honor, but I still want benefits."

He cast a spell, silencing the ghost eagle, and floating the cage beside him.

"Let's go, let's go see what the so-called test is about, and how it turned into a forbidden area that everyone is afraid of!"
