C2201 The Owner of the Secret Realm
In a dark tunnel, Ye Hongtian was holding the wall with one hand and his chest with the other. His face was pale.
"Little Qiong Qi, can you explain to me that we can all use Zhen Yuan?! Jun Tianyao had even used the Hundred Shadow Sword! Their true essence is not restricted at all!" Ye Hongtian asked in a hoarse voice.
Qiong Qi appeared in front of Ye Hong Tian. He looked at Ye Hong Tian and found it funny.
It was a joke to see Ye Hong Tian make a fool of himself. He had to answer Ye Hong Tian's question.
"It's simple. You are the key. This place will only restrict your power. From the moment you enter the palace, the true essence in your body needs to be used to maintain the operation of the entire palace. The more people enter, the more serious the restriction on the true essence. "
After explaining the reason for the restriction of the true yuan, Qiong Qi changed his expression and teased, "But you can still use the Terminator Thunder Pearl. It seems like the restriction is not very serious."
Hearing this, Ye Hong Tian cursed Qiong Qi's ancestors in his heart. The reason he could use the Terminator Thunder Pearl was because he had to forcefully use true essence and a massive amount of Laws. The price he had to pay was that he had to support himself against the wall as he walked. The pain in his heart caused him to nearly lose consciousness several times.
Fortunately, they were currently in a secret door within the palace. This secret door was located in a very concealed location within the treasury. It was very difficult to find a secret door before they knew there was a secret door. Ye Hongtian was able to come here because Qiong Qi was pointing at the way.
Because of the intense pain in his heart, Ye Hong Tian slowly walked along the secret passage for an hour and finally couldn't hold it anymore. He decided to sit on the ground and rest.
Qiong Qi didn't object to Ye Hong Tian resting at this time. He quietly curled up next to Ye Hong Tian. It looked like he was sleeping, but Ye Hong Tian could feel the powerful soul power released from his body.
Two hours later, the pain in Ye Hongtian's heart finally disappeared. Although his face was still pale, it wasn't difficult for him to walk.
He still had some internal injuries on his body. He could recover as he walked. It wouldn't be a big problem.
As he continued forward, Qiong Qi jumped onto his shoulder. In addition, he had set up some kind of concealing technique on Ye Hong Tian's body. It was not as effective as the Qi restraining technique. However, it was very important to Ye Hong Tian, who was currently unable to use his true essence.
The flying precious artifact had once again played a great role at this time. It brought Ye Hong Tian and flew forward at high speed. This secret passage was not as long as the one they had passed through before. Soon, they reached the end. Moreover, there was no stone tablet door here. There was only a simple formation that Ye Hong Tian casually broke.
This was a round open space, and in the open space was a position. Each of them had a stone pillar, and the stone pillar in front of Ye Hong Tian was the longest of the four stone pillars. It was also the strangest one, with a large number of bloody handprints on it. There were also a few human skulls hanging on top of it.
"It looks really strange. Do you know what this thing is made of?" Ye Hong Tian asked Qiong Qi.
Qiong Qi looked serious. He jumped off Ye Hong Tian's shoulder and landed on the top of the stone pillar.
He put his claws into a skull's mouth and took it off the stone pillar. He opened his mouth and spat out a black mist. The bone turned into a green gem.
The green gem looked familiar to Ye Hong Tian. When Qiong Qi threw the gem at him, he caught it. It was the one in the box.
"Don't just stand there. Put the gem on the coin you took earlier!"
When Ye Hong Tian was wondering what the gem was for, Qiong Qi said something to wake him up. He immediately took out the coin and put the gem on it.
When the gemstone came into contact with the coin, the eyes on the coin seemed to be alive. It slowly opened and released a beam of light that burned the gemstone into ashes.
At this moment, Ye Hong Tian finally saw the shape of the coin. It was a pure gold coin. There was a python wrapped around the coin. In the middle of the coin was a pure gold eye. Only the pupil of the eye was dark green.
Pah!
When Ye Hong Tian was about to observe the coin carefully, Qiong Qi threw out another gem which hit his head.
Qiong Qi did it on purpose. He wanted Ye Hong Tian to do something quickly. Ye Hong Tian had no choice but to burn all the gems that Qiong Qi threw down with the coin.
There were six stones in total. Qiong Qi jumped down from the stone pillar after taking the stones down. However, he looked very serious.
"How do you feel?" Qiong Qi suddenly asked without thinking.
Ye Hongtian was surprised. He lowered his head and looked at himself. He replied, "If you asked me about my internal injuries after I used the Terminator Thunder Pearl, I would have recovered long ago. Right now, other than not being able to use true essence, I don't have any other special feelings."
Qiong Qi saw that Ye Hong Tian didn't seem to be lying and heaved a sigh of relief. He jumped back onto Ye Hong Tian's shoulder and said, "This is a place like an altar, the skull on the stone pillar. Although Qiong Qi didn't know who had hung them, if the gems hidden in the skulls were successfully condensed... Everyone in the palace must die, even me... It'll be very difficult for me to escape unscathed. "
"These six gems were clearly just put in there not long ago. Apparently, someone came here before us. Fortunately, with the power of the coin in your hand, it's quite easy to get rid of them."1
Hearing Qiong Qi's words, Ye Hong Tian frowned and thought for a while. Then, he said seriously, "You mean someone wants to kill all of us who entered the palace?"
"Maybe not. Killing all the people in the palace is just a way. Since those people can come here, their main purpose should be that." Qiong Qi looked up and said.
Ye Hong Tian followed Qiong Qi's line of sight and looked up. At the top of this area, there was a coffin nailed to the coffin by two huge stone pillars.
Those two stone pillars did not look simple. They were full of formation patterns. Even if the formation on them had not been activated, the stone pillars still emitted a very dangerous aura.
"This is?!"
"This is the Soul Wood Coffin. In the coffin is the founder of the Jiang family, who was killed by the Hanging Mountain Divine Lord back then. People call him the Jiang family's patriarch - Jiang Zhide!"
After knowing the identity of the coffin's owner, Ye Hongtian could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. He had always thought that the person who created this mystic realm was a Saint elder of the Jiang family, but he never expected it to be the old ancestor of the Jiang family.
