At this moment, everyone disregarded what had just happened and rushed to the giant bronze gate, trying to open it.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, the massive bronze gate remained unmoved.
So everyone looked at Zuan. After witnessing his skills, they all implicitly regarded him as their leader.
Zuan stepped forward, placed his hand on the bronze giant door, and channeled his energy to push it inward. Unfortunately, his energy seemed to be directly diverted to some unknown place by the bronze door, and could not be applied to the door at all.
He said in a deep voice, "This door obviously cannot be opened by brute force."
Hearing him say that, everyone was disappointed. Did they work hard all day only to end up waiting outside the treasure mountain with nothing to show for it?
At this moment, Yan Xuehen also arrived in front of the bronze door. Her slender fingers gently stroked the lines on the door, and then her gaze fell on the reliefs of various auspicious beasts and divine birds carved on the bronze door: "There should be a mechanism on it."
Having just witnessed her abilities in the Misty Forest, upon hearing her words, some people acted almost immediately, exclaiming in surprise, "These reliefs seem to be able to rotate!"
Yan Xuehen pondered, "It should be arranged in a special way, but without any other clues, I have no idea what to do for the time being."
There are dozens of reliefs here, which means there are countless possible combinations. Trying to find the correct answer by trying them all is almost impossible.
"Everyone, go and look for clues around here," Jin Shi shouted. They were all elites from various races, so they naturally knew that the mechanisms in this kind of place could not be tested randomly. If they made a mistake, something terrible might happen.
After all, the people who arranged all this, given what we've encountered along the way, don't seem like kind-hearted people.
Soon everyone started searching everywhere, leaving no bush unchecked.
At this moment, Fatty Wu Liang walked over, rubbing his hands together, and said, "How about I give it a try?"
Princess Changning frowned and said, "Don't try it randomly. What if this thing has a limited number of attempts? If it exceeds the limit and doesn't give the correct answer, it will be completely destroyed, and all our efforts will be in vain."
Although the other party performed quite well in the mist, he has a shifty look and it's hard to associate him with a master.
Zuan glanced at the fat man thoughtfully and said, "Let him give it a try."
Now that he wields considerable influence, once he has spoken, it's naturally difficult for others to stop him.
Wu Liang's plump body was surprisingly agile. He climbed up and down the tall bronze door with a light touch of his toes, turning the relief to a specific position each time he reached a spot, seemingly without the slightest hesitation.
Before long, all the reliefs from top to bottom were rotated.
As Wu Liang landed on the ground, the reliefs suddenly emitted bursts of eerie blue light, followed by streaks of blue light spreading across all the lines on the bronze door.
A muffled sound rang out, and the bronze gate slowly opened, revealing a deep, dark entrance.
All eyes turned to Wu Liang, and even the most oblivious person realized that something was wrong with the fat man.
Zu An said calmly, "Daoist Master, won't you say a few words?"
"Taoist priest?" The other demon experts were taken aback. This guy's ordinary attire made it impossible for him to be a Taoist priest.
However, the methods used in the Misty Forest did indeed have the style of the Taoist sect.
Wu Liang chuckled and said, "Don't misunderstand, everyone. I accidentally obtained an ancient notebook that seemed to mention this bronze door. I tried it according to the instructions, and I didn't expect it to actually open."
Others wanted to ask him what was in his notes, what was in them, but Wu Liang very tactfully said there was nothing there.
Others knew he was mostly lying, but they had no way to prove it.
At this moment, some people couldn't resist rushing into the door first. After all, everyone was wary of Zuan's strength. Taking the lead now would give them an advantage, and they might be able to get a rare treasure and slip away.
Seeing this, the others didn't bother questioning Wu Liang and rushed inside one after another.
Zuan reminded the three women beside him, "We don't know what's inside, so stay close to me and don't get separated."
Yun Jianyue was somewhat dissatisfied: "Although I am injured, I am not to the point where I need your protection."
Yan Xuehen's heart skipped a beat, because although the other party was speaking to all three of them on the surface, he was looking at her more often when he spoke.
She was aware of her physical condition, so she didn't refuse in a pretentious way, but nodded almost imperceptibly.
Yu Yanluo then said, "We should be careful of this fat Taoist priest; he seems rather strange."
Zu An nodded and secretly sent a wisp of his divine sense to him.
The group quickly went inside. They had initially thought it would be a dark tomb, but it turned out to be a world of its own. Although it wasn't very bright, they could see perfectly well, and they had no idea where the light came from.
"Hey, there's something drawn on this wall!" The man exclaimed, then immediately regretted it. He was so stupid; he should have secretly taken a look first. What if it was a diagram of some divine skill or secret technique left behind by a master?
Clearly, many others shared this thought, and the others quickly gathered around.
Zuan and his companions possessed extraordinary cultivation levels, so they didn't need to get too close to see the contents of the mural.
Several murals in front of the main mural appear to have been destroyed. The first remaining mural depicts a group of warriors escorting a carriage, accompanied by numerous eunuchs and palace maids. Judging from this entourage, it seems to be the procession of a monarch.
The next picture shows the foot of a strange mountain. The mountain's undulating shape resembles a large snake, but there is a break in the middle. Coincidentally, there is indeed a large snake broken in two at the foot of the mountain.
