Chapter 1013 Three Questions



Sure enough, there is someone!

Hearing the voice coming from behind the door, Xi Tong became alert. He immediately looked at Mou Feng, Pan Wu and Yan Fu beside him, and then slowly walked towards the open door in front.

As for Kuilang, he was still kneeling on the ground, kowtowing solemnly and slowly.

After bowing nine times, Kuilang finally stood up, took three steps forward, then knelt down again, stood up again, took two steps, knelt down, took another two steps, and kowtowed.

This means kneeling once every three steps, bowing once every five steps, and kowtowing once every seven steps.

Such a solemn ceremony shows how eager the pilgrim is.

Xi Tong and the other three who were walking in front also saw Kuilang's actions, and a complex emotion surged in their hearts, including disdain for Kuilang's flattery, as well as a hint of envy and regret.

We are all smart people. How can we not see that Kuilang's behavior will definitely bring him untold benefits?

But unfortunately, not everyone can swallow their pride and perform such a generous gift.

Besides, the owner of the voice in the palace was not a fool. If they had done this at the beginning, there would be no problem. But now that Kuilang has set an example, it would be a bit hypocritical if they followed suit.

With no other options, Xitong and the other three could only slow down their pace and walk through the gate.

After entering the gate, what appeared before everyone's eyes was a misty courtyard with gushing springs and jade bridges. Countless white mists floated on the ground like a sea of ​​clouds, almost covering everyone's ankles.

Through the white mist, you can vaguely see the jade floor tiles and various exotic flowers and plants growing on both sides of the courtyard.

Xi Tong thought he was knowledgeable, but when he saw these exotic flowers and plants, he couldn't recognize even one of them.

Everyone stared blankly at the scene around them, their eyes sweeping across the extraordinary things in the courtyard, and finally towards the majestic palace in front of them.

The style of this palace is not unusual, but the materials seem to be extraordinary. Whether it is bricks, doors, windows or pillars, they all emit a bright light similar to that of night pearls.

“Chiu!”

A clear cry was heard from the sky, and everyone looked up hurriedly, only to see a bluebird and a crane descending from the sky above the palace and landing on the eaves of the palace. Then the bluebird cried and the crane danced, which was like a fairyland and made people intoxicated.

"ah!"

At this moment, a loud shout of surprise suddenly came from the side, waking Xitong and others from their intoxication.

They frowned and turned around, and immediately saw Mou Feng standing in the clouds, looking at his left hand with surprise.

"Look, my hand, my hand...it's growing!"

"What?!"

Xi Tong's pupils shrank, and he looked at Mou Feng's left hand in disbelief. He saw white bone fragments and tentacle-like flesh granulations wriggling on the cross-section of the four severed fingers, as if they had really grown back.

Not only that, the other two also exclaimed in ecstasy.

Pan Wu raised his hand tremblingly and stroked his ears, which had long been frozen by the cold and had now grown back.

Yan Fu quickly squatted down, took off his shoes and socks without caring about his image, and looked at his toes that were beginning to grow with excitement on his face.

“Fairy spirit!”

“It must be the spirit of immortality!”

"This blessed land of immortals is filled with immortal energy that can revive the dead and turn bones into flesh!"

Mou Feng began to tremble all over, unable to control himself with excitement.

Xi Tong stared at them in a daze, then suddenly came to his senses, took a deep breath, and immediately, streams of spiritual energy were inhaled by him, and his whole body felt warm as if he was soaking in a hot spring.

“It really has a fairy-like aura!”

Feeling the cheering and joy of the cells in his body, Xitong couldn't help but show joy on his face.

At the same time, where they couldn't see, Yun Ye's mouth curled up slightly and he felt relieved.

At present, Baiyujing has not yet been completed, and the treatment of affiliated forces has not yet been received. Under such circumstances, in order to maintain Baiyujing's status in front of Xitong and others, Yun Ye can be said to have used all means.

As we all know, all basic materials in the alliance that do not contain extraordinary powers are worthless.

A ton of ordinary stones and a ton of jade of the highest purity have the same price.

Taking this into consideration, Yun Ye only spent Gray Mist Coins to buy some jade and jewelry in the Alliance. As for materials such as civil engineering, gold and stone, he ordered them from Fan Xian in the early stage and dug them in his own world later.

Therefore, the jade bricks used for paving the ground and the jade bridges used for building roads are all genuine, otherwise it would be difficult to imitate the texture.

Apart from that, those exotic flowers and plants, bluebirds and cranes, as well as the bright light emanating from the palace are all false holographic projections.

The white mist floating on the floor tiles was just ordinary water vapor, not the real spiritual energy that condensed into mist in the alliance.

As for the physical regeneration effect felt by Xi Tong and others, it was actually the result of the combined effect of the [Body Repair Agent] injected previously and the diluted spiritual energy in the courtyard.

These spiritual energies were not generated by spiritual veins, but were obtained for free by Yun Ye from the Time Travelers' Square, so in theory they were only disposable. If Yun Ye did not replenish them in time, they would soon be diluted and dissipated into the courtyard or even outside the snow-capped mountains.

Thinking of this, Yun Ye, who was obsessed with petty peasant thinking, quickly sent a message to Fan Xian, asking him to urge Xi Tong and others to enter the hall quickly. Fan Xian received the message, smiled helplessly, then cleared his throat and said leisurely: "Come~"

A long voice came from the hall, lingering in the ears of Xi Tong and others.

Everyone's heart trembled, and they hurriedly took a step forward, walking towards the hall on the jade bricks.

Soon, everyone crossed the jade bridge and walked into the palace.

There was no candlelight in the hall, but a golden light suddenly appeared out of nowhere, illuminating the entire hall.

Xi Tong's eyes swept across the carved pillars on both sides and finally to the center of the hall, where he saw a handsome young man in white clothes with an immortal look standing there, looking at everyone with a smile on his face.

On both sides of him were two carved screens, and behind him stood four statues of gods and an offering table with fruits and incense burners.

Xi Tong looked closely at the statue and the screen, and found that the painting on the screen was of exquisite craftsmanship and perfection, definitely from the hands of a master, but the content of the painting was quite unfamiliar, and he had never seen it before.

As for the statues, it was also very strange, especially their positions. The Three Pure Ones were actually ranked below the Four Imperial Gods!

Sitting in the main seat is the Purple Star Emperor among the Four Imperial Gods, while the Three Pure Ones stand on both sides, seemingly of a lower rank than the Purple Star Emperor.

Seeing this scene, Xitong felt an indescribable strange feeling in his heart.

But considering that the guest should follow the host's wishes, he said nothing. He just stood there, respectfully waiting for the handsome young man to speak.

The handsome young man glanced at the four people in the hall who were nervous and reserved, smiled slightly, and looked behind them.

In the mist outside the palace, Kuilang was still performing the kowtow ceremony, strictly following the procedure of kneeling every three steps, bowing every five steps, and kowtowing every seven steps as he walked towards the palace gate.

It has to be said that his behavior really brought him benefits.

Look, before he even met the real owner, he had already absorbed more spiritual energy because of his slow movement speed.

After a period of silent waiting, Kuilang, who was moving forward at a snail's pace, finally stepped into the hall.

Looking at the handsome young man in white clothes in front of the hall, Kui Lang was filled with excitement. He immediately knelt down with a plop, then put his hands together, walked a few steps on his knees, looked at him with fanatical and respectful eyes, and said:

"Disciple Kuilang, I pay my respects to the Immortal!"

After saying that, Kuilang suddenly prostrated himself and kowtowed heavily to the handsome young man in white.

The young man in white, or Fan Xian, smiled slightly and waved his hand. Suddenly, an invisible force emerged from nowhere and forcibly lifted up Kui Lang, who had not yet fallen to the ground.

Kui Lang was slightly startled, then quickly raised his head and looked at Fan Xian blankly.

Fan Xian said leisurely, "Stand up. You have passed the Heart-Searching Trial and are indeed qualified to enter the palace to meet the emperor. However, there is no master-disciple relationship between you and me, so let's skip the ceremony of kneeling down and bowing!"

After saying this, Fan Xian ignored the distraught Kui Lang and turned his gaze to the other four people who were also somewhat disappointed.

"This place is located in the extreme north of the earth. To be able to come here means that you have passed many tests."

"But even so, it is not easy to enter this palace. You must have great perseverance and great luck to succeed."

"You are able to come before me, you must be a person with great perseverance and great luck..."

Hearing this, the five people including Xitong couldn't help but show joy.

But in the next second, Fan Xian suddenly changed the subject and said calmly, "However, I have used my divine eyes to observe you and found that your fate is humble and you have no chance of becoming an immortal. This shows that you have borrowed the luck of others to enter this North Pole Heaven..."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the five people in front of him suddenly changed.

Xi Tong's heart sank, recalling his previous experience, and suddenly realized that he had indeed mentioned the names of Yun Ye and Bai Yujing, which was why he was invited in by the giant steel god.

Could it be that the borrowing of luck that the immortal mentioned originated from this sentence?

Xi Tong was worried, and the other four also looked frightened and uneasy.

At this moment, Fan Xian changed his previous demeanor again, and said with a chuckle, "Don't panic, don't panic. Although I don't like the method of borrowing luck, it does not violate the rules of the Arctic Sky after all..."

"Well, it's fate. Since you are here, I will follow the usual practice and allow you to ask three questions."

"Remember, there are only three questions. This is the reward for passing the trial. I hope you will consider them carefully and don't make mistakes!"

After saying this, Fan Xian raised his hand, signaling everyone to discuss the matter on their own.

Xi Tong and the others looked at each other, and all felt a complex emotion of disappointment at Fan Xian's words.

They crossed the north, experienced numerous hardships and dangers, suffered over 90% casualties, and finally climbed the 4,999 stone steps and met the immortal, but in the end they could only ask three questions?

How unfair God is!

Xi Tong sighed in his heart.

Fortunately, he had experienced many setbacks and soon calmed down and accepted the reality.

Anyway, they finally met their current partner and were able to ask three questions, which was better than returning empty-handed.

Thinking of this, Xi Tong's expression became firm. He immediately turned around and started discussing in a low voice with the other four people.
