Chapter 351: Entering the Daytime Palace (3)
On the way to the Dayu Palace, Tao Zi and others were under the spiritual consciousness of a Mahayana cultivator, and their perception of the outside world was much weaker.
She looked at the dense trees around her and tried to send her spiritual sense out. The Mahayana cultivator noticed this and said, "Young lady, proceed with caution."
Tao Zi smiled and said, "I'm just a little curious. I'll be careful."
Seeing that she was determined to explore, the Mahayana period no longer tried to stop her, but only secretly increased his vigilance.
The moment she extended her spiritual sense, the spiritual senses of countless monsters stared at her at the same time. Her hair stood on end and horror filled her heart. Before she could react, the spiritual sense she had extended was swallowed up and destroyed.
Tao Zi broke out in a cold sweat, but she continued walking. Only Cheng Wuchou beside her noticed the stiffness of her body.
He calmly turned his body to ensure that if she couldn't hold on any longer, he could catch her at any time.
The Mahayana cultivator looked at her and smiled, "Young lady, you have a good ability to accept things. When the young master first reached out, he stood there for a long time before recovering."
Cheng Wuchou smiled and continued, "Senior, I was only at the Golden Core stage at that time, so naturally I wasn't as calm as Tao Zi."
Listening to their conversation, Tao Zi reluctantly said, "Seeing is believing. The interior of the Dayless Forest is indeed worthy of its name."
The Mahayana cultivator shook his head and said, "It's still a rare peaceful period now. If it were an ordinary time, even a Mahayana cultivator like me wouldn't dare come in alone."
She suddenly felt a chill down her spine and looked at Cheng Wuchou for confirmation. He nodded and said, "The last time I came in, I was accompanied by five Mahayana cultivators. Even so, I almost lost my life. It's just a coincidence that we encountered such a good opportunity this time. Otherwise, I would have brought a few more people with me."
Tao Zi didn't know what to be shocked about for a moment, whether it was the shock that there were five Mahayana stage masters, or the shock that he almost lost his life.
The Mahayana cultivator looked around cautiously, confirming there was no danger before saying, "Don't forget, tens of thousands of years ago, the era was vibrant, with at least one person ascending every hundred years. Mahayana cultivators weren't all that rare back then. Now that they're trapped here, it's normal for them to be in danger."
Cheng Wuchou then sighed, "Thank goodness this forest has the ability to wear away their sanity and strength. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a single person in this world who could have stepped into the forest."
"That's not the case, sir. The two from the Tiandao Sect and the Jian Sect are still okay."
Listening to their conversation, Tao Zi keenly noticed that they did not mention Mr., and had some vague guesses in her mind.
After rushing all the way, they finally arrived at the outskirts of the Dayu Palace.
The magnificent palace was brighter than the light from the trees. There were no trees or grass around it, leaving only an open space.
Tao Zi looked at this huge palace and was a little dazed for a moment. Is this the palace where the emperor was buried?
The Mahayana cultivator said at this time: "We cannot enter, please be careful."
A monk who had been silent all this time bowed with a smile and said, "Thank you for waiting here for a while, monk."
Tao Zi noticed his name and glanced at him again. Cheng Wuchou transmitted a message, "He is a Taoist priest."
She looked at him again in surprise, and the Taoist priest smiled and bowed to her. She returned the greeting, and the three of them walked inside.
As soon as she stepped into the palace, Tao Zi felt uncomfortable. This discomfort reminded her of Xing Feng.
Cheng Wuchou's face gradually turned pale, but his expression remained calm. He even had the leisure to smile and joke, "Tao Zi, you are the best fighter among us right now, so you better cheer up."
The Taoist priest stepped to Cheng Wuchou's left, and together with Tao Zi, they protected him on both sides. He said, "Young Master, please stop talking and conserve your energy."
He stopped talking and walked slowly.
Tao Zi quickly adapted to the situation. She turned to look at the Taoist priest and asked curiously, "Master Taoist, how did you get used to it so quickly?"
Although a Taoist's dependence on spiritual energy is not as high as that of a Taoist practitioner, it should be similar to that of a physical practitioner. However, this Taoist appeared to be at ease from the very beginning.
The Taoist stroked his beard and smiled, "This place was built by our ancestors with their lives. Aside from the descendants of the Cheng family, only we Taoists and those bald donkeys can come and go freely. What's more, our ancestors had already considered the concerns of the younger generation and specially used some special methods. We Taoists can still display our abilities here."
Tao Zi gave him a strange look. Cheng Wuchou coughed for a long time. The Taoist paused while stroking his beard and whispered, "Sir, didn't you tell the girl?"
She comforted him, "Don't worry, the royal family's surname is Cheng, I know that."
Taoist priest: "...Sir, if that's the case, there's no need for you to cough."
He smiled helplessly and said, "How should I know she knows."
Tao Zi asked doubtfully, "But Master Cheng doesn't look well. Could it be because of his thin bloodline or his cultivation?"
Cheng Wuchou sighed deeply and said, "That's true, but if I hadn't cultivated immortality, how could I have lived until now?"
His words showed that he was indifferent to matters like cultivating immortals, and even had a hint of helplessness in them.
They finally walked into the palace gate. The moment they entered, the golden light inside almost blinded Tao Zi. She looked at the gold everywhere and said, "It seems that the emperor inside likes gold very much."
Cheng Wuchou shielded his eyes with a fan and said, "Yes, I like it very much."
boom!
A violent rumbling sound suddenly rang out, and the Taoist calmly comforted Tao Zi: "It's nothing, it's probably that the Beast King noticed the presence of the human race and is roaring in frustration."
She was silent, not knowing how to answer this question.
Cheng Wuchou asked, "Master, where should we go?"
The Taoist priest took out a compass, pondered for a moment, and said, "We need to find a weak point so that the young lady can contact the outside world and find out where the young master and his sister are."
The two followed him step by step inside. The rumbling sound became louder and louder, and they could even hear faint roars.
Tao Zi narrowed her eyes. Cheng Wuchou also noticed something was wrong and stopped, saying, "Where are you going, Taoist Priest?"
The Taoist priest shook the compass in his hand and said, "Follow the compass, it will always be right."
She was silent for a long time, then whispered, "Master, don't tell me the so-called weak point is around the Beast King."
He thought about it, nodded seriously, and said, "It's very likely. Don't be afraid. The mechanism is controlling it. If it really can't be controlled, no one will have spiritual energy. Who is afraid of who?"
Tao Zi let out a long breath and said, "What if I'm scared?"
The Taoist stroked his beard and looked at Cheng Wuchou: "Sir, what do you think?"
"I'm scared too," he said half-jokingly, "but I still have to go."
Tao Zi was not surprised. This man was a girl-hunting maniac. Not to mention that there was a Beast King in front of him, he would go over even if it was an alien.
