However, at this moment, Han Xing did not pay attention to his teammates' thoughts, but raised his head and looked at the palace in front of him.
A broken plaque with a few ancient characters engraved on it hung on the mottled palace gate.
Because this text is so ancient, even the people present have no idea what it contains.
However, a faint fragrance seemed to seep out from the crack in the door, as if there was some rare treasure inside that was attracting them.
Han Xing was about to push the door open when Qing He next to him quickly reminded him, "Brother Han Xing, wait a minute."
His hand paused in the air, and he turned his head to look at Qing He in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Qing He explained, "Brother Han Xing, a palace like this that exudes a strange fragrance may seem to contain some kind of treasure, but in fact, it harbors murderous intent."
"Once we open the door, we are likely to trigger the restrictions inside..."
Han Xing nodded suddenly: "I understand, this is a trap, specifically designed to attract some newbies who have just entered."
"So even though those guys passed by this palace, they didn't open it and went deeper into it."
Qing He replied, "That's right."
After hearing this, Long Yu, who was standing next to him, showed a trace of fear on his face: "It's so dangerous here... Then we should leave here and find another palace to enter?"
The others nodded in agreement.
However... Han Xing did not leave immediately, but fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he turned around and asked, "What else could be inside a trap palace like this besides traps?"
"Or is this thing simply set up here to trick people?"
When Qinghe heard this question, a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.
Because no one had ever thought about this before.
After all, everyone already knew that this palace was a trap, and it had cost the lives of so many lords.
Who is willing to take such a risk and explore what is hidden behind the trap?
Yao Lian, who was standing beside her, spoke for her sister, "It's rare for a lord to come out alive after entering a trap palace like this."
"However, there are exceptions to everything."
"As far as I know, three hundred years ago, a high-ranking Chaos Lord from the Western Region Divine Palace came out alive."
A trace of reminiscence flashed across Yao Lian's red eyes. "He didn't tell me what he got in there, and even when others asked him, he kept it a secret."
"However...after that incident, he broke through to the initial Divine Lord realm in a short period of time."
"So, it is speculated that there may be some special treasures hidden in these trap palaces."
When he heard the last sentence, Han Xing's eyes lit up instantly.
"A special treasure... Interesting!"
Obviously, he was moved.
However, Han Xing did not act rashly. Instead, he analyzed in his mind, "Being able to allow this high-level Chaos Lord to break through to the initial Divine Lord realm in a short period of time means that this must be some kind of treasure that can enhance strength."
"Moreover, as a high-ranking lord, he was able to come out alive."
"In other words, the crisis in this trap palace is actually not that terrible."
"At least... for those lords, there is still a glimmer of hope!"
Thinking of this, Han Xing made a decision instantly!
"That's it, everyone get ready!"
Hearing this, everyone on the field looked stern.
Although they all knew that opening this trap palace was not a wise choice, they believed in this man unconditionally!
And the most important thing is that the road to becoming a lord should be one of moving forward.
If you are timid in doing everything and put your life first, you will miss many opportunities.
Thinking of this, they all took a deep breath and prepared for battle!
At the same time, Han Xing's palm was already pressed on the mottled door panel, and then he pushed hard!
At this moment, the ancient palace gate slowly opened, and a dazzling light burst out from the gap!
"boom--!"
A strong golden light burst out from the crack in the door, instantly illuminating the void within a radius of a hundred miles.
The ancient palace gate made a heavy roar, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for ten thousand years was waking up.
At the same time, the entire secret realm was shaken by the opening of this palace!
The other lords who were exploring in the distance looked up at the same time, with horror on their faces.
"This tremor means the Trap Palace is being punished?" A Western Region lord driving a bronze chariot exclaimed in shock. "Who is so bold?"
His companion's expression suddenly changed: "No! All the lords of the Western Regions have been warned not to touch these palaces that exude strange fragrances!"
"Could it be..." The Bauhinia Divine Lord narrowed her beautiful eyes, and the Purple Ying Sword emitted a clear and melodious sound. "Those people from the Southern Territory?"
Upon hearing this speculation, all the lords near Tianmen were stunned.
Then the field erupted in laughter.
"Hahaha! It's very possible. After all, these guys are new here and don't know the rules of this secret realm!"
"That makes sense. I'm more than 80% sure it's them!"
At the same time, a lord nearby laughed sinisterly and said, "Hahahaha... Very good, very good..."
"We originally planned to teach this arrogant fellow a lesson after entering the secret realm, but it seems we don't need to do anything now..."
At this moment, smug smiles appeared on the faces of these lords in the Western Regions, as if they had foreseen the fate of Han Xing and others.
At this time, another lord said: "Everyone, I remember that this kind of trap palace will spit out some indigestible treasures after swallowing the strong outside."
"This arrogant boy is an Eternal Disciple. He must have a lot of treasures on him."
"Let's go to the door now and wait for the treasure inside to appear!"
After hearing this, all the lords present also realized this.
"Indeed... Although this boy is arrogant, he is still quite capable. He must have many good treasures on him!"
"Poor little fellow, he finally became an Eternal Disciple, but now he's going to suffer so soon..."
An old man said quietly, "Forget it... Out of pity for you, I will go to the door and collect your body."
After hearing this, the others also showed understanding smiles on their faces.
"Haha, let's go together..."
At once, a large number of lords turned around and gathered in the direction of the trap palace.
And in that palace, Han Xing and others are facing a strange scene.
Ever since the palace opened, a dazzling golden light flashed, and they were teleported away by a special spatial force.
At this moment, everyone was standing in a special space.
There was pitch blackness in front of my eyes, and a fishy, dark smell filled the air.
It was completely different from the sacred and solemn scene outside.
And in the darkness, everyone faintly heard some rustling sounds, as if something was crawling around them.
"Everyone, can you see it?"
The rough voice of the Beast Lord was heard, and faint flashes of lightning could be seen.
As an ancient thunder beast, the thunder essence in his body is extremely rich and basically cannot be blocked by any force.
But in this strange space, even his thunder power seemed to be blocked.
"Brother Big Beast, I can't see either."
Tugang's metallic voice rang out: "This darkness is not pure black, but involves another kind of origin that can block the vision of all of us."
Hearing this, everyone on the field frowned.
At this moment, Miao Qing beside him gently stroked the strings of the zither: "Everyone, did you hear any sound?"
Everyone listened attentively and seemed to hear a very strange sound.
"Crack... crack... crack..."
The sound was like the dragging of iron chains, with a slight sound of bones rubbing against each other.
In addition, the surrounding darkness also has a certain effect of blocking out sound.
So it feels like someone is covering your ears with their hands in the dark...
Weird and creepy!
And just at this moment, a sound of breaking wind was heard.
“Wow!”
It was as if the darkness was stirred.
The demon lotus with strong combat awareness reacted instantly.
She raised the large sword in her hand, her blood-red pupils spun like moons, and she disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, a flash of a knife appeared in the darkness, followed by a dull sound of metal clashing.
“KENG——!!!”
The violent sound waves turned into substance and spread across space like ripples.
Everyone on the field felt a tightness in their chest when they heard the collision.
However, before everyone could react, a sound of flesh being penetrated was heard.
"puff!"
Immediately afterwards, a white shadow flew backwards!
It’s the demon lotus!
Qinghe's voice suddenly became urgent.
"lotus!!"
She turned the lotus leaf umbrella in her hand slightly, and her whole body turned into a stream of green light, rushing towards the demon lotus not far away.
And the voice of the demon lotus came from the darkness.
"I'm fine, don't come over!"
"Everyone, don't move around easily!"
After hearing this, Qinghe was a little confused, but still stopped where she was.
"Yao Lian, what happened?" Han Xing's voice rang out.
“Ahem…”
Yao Lian coughed lightly a few times and said in a deep voice: "If I'm not mistaken, what attacked me just now was a chain."
"The chain's attack power was very strong, at least at the Divine Lord level. I avoided the vital points at the critical moment."
When they heard the term "Divine Lord Realm", everyone frowned.
She continued, "But through that wave of attacks just now, I seem to understand something."
"If my speculation is correct, the being that launched the attack should have limited vision in this darkness, just like us."
"So He can only attack based on the location of the sound we make."
When she finished speaking, everyone in the audience nodded in understanding.
At the same time, he also understood why Yaolian asked everyone to stand still and not move.
And they did find that when everyone was still and made less noise, the feeling of being locked in was much lessened.
The sound of chains being dragged could be heard in the darkness, as if they were searching for a target to attack.
For a moment... everyone subconsciously shut their mouths, and the space fell into silence.
There was dead silence all around, even a little depressing!
After a while, the Great Beast Lord finally seemed unable to bear it anymore and said, "What should we do now? Are we just going to wait here forever?"
After a brief silence, Qing He slowly said, "If I'm not mistaken, there are ways to break through trap palaces like this..."
"You just need to be patient and observe, and maybe you can find a way to crack it."
"The solution..." muttered the Beast Lord.
After hearing this, everyone else also started looking around for something.
However, at this time, Han Xing said directly: "There is no need to be so troublesome."
Everyone looked in confusion towards the direction where the sound came from, where a faint starlight flashed.
"Brother Han Xing, what do you mean...?" Tu Gang couldn't help but ask.
Han Xing said, "Since these chains attack based on our position, it means there must be some existence behind them, or some kind of will controlling them."
"In that case, why not just find the guy behind this and kill him?"
"Just find... and kill him?"
There was confusion in everyone's eyes.
Although it sounds simple to Korean stars, it is not that easy to implement.
After all… there’s no way to solve this layer of darkness that blocks everyone’s vision and hearing.
Not to mention, finding the manipulator behind it.
However, Han Xing did not explain.
He was just slowly mobilizing the original power in his body and gathering it in his eyes.
“Buzz…”
A special origin fluctuation erupted from him, even expanding an area with a diameter of one meter in this dense space.
At this moment, he is like a firefly in the dark, so conspicuous and bright!
Everyone's eyes were focused on Han Xing.
Including the existence in the darkness, it seemed that they also noticed Han Xing's presence.
"Kaala..."
The sound of countless chains being dragged could be heard all around.
Han Xing simply ignored these strange movements and whispered, "Triple Heaven Eye, open!"
Next, he suddenly opened the third eye on his forehead!
“Buzz——!”
A brilliant golden light pierced the darkness like a sharp sword!
Under the vision of the Dongxu Eye, Han Xing finally saw the existence in the darkness!
In front, there was a dark dragon that was a hundred feet long, nailed to death in the void by nine thick bronze chains!
Its jet-black scales are covered in ancient runes, and it exhales a corrosive black mist with every breath.
The most terrifying thing is its scarlet vertical pupils, which seem to contain endless madness and killing.
The golden light of the Eye of Void swept across the monster unscrupulously, allowing others to see its figure clearly.
Qing He looked at the huge figure and murmured, "Is this... the Dark Dragon?"
"Hundreds of thousands of years ago, that powerful creature forced its way into the Heavenly Gate and disappeared!"
“It actually appeared here!”
At this moment, everyone in the group felt a shudder in their throats.
Although they didn't know the origin of the Dark Dragon, the aura emanating from this monster brought an astonishing sense of oppression to everyone!
That has far surpassed the initial stage of God Lord and reached the level of intermediate stage of God Lord!
No, even among the mid-level gods, its aura is quite terrifying!
In other words, the strength of this dark dragon is at least at the peak of the intermediate level God Lord!
And everyone finally understood why almost no lord who entered this trap palace could come out alive.
