Chapter 139 Forbidden Land
Ling Shi said, "I will issue an order not to let the clan leader get close to you. I will also send people to protect you."
Then he ordered someone to take them to another room to rest.
She took the patriarch away with her.
As soon as they entered the room, everyone surrounded Gu Liyue, and Gu Liyue pulled her hand away from Nie Hengzhou.
Everyone pretended not to notice their interaction.
Xiahou Jingrong said excitedly: "Gu Liyue, you can actually withstand the attack of the Spiritual Transformation Stage."
Yun Lizhi also looked at her in disbelief, curiosity almost overflowing in her eyes.
Qiao Zhiwen also looked at her.
Li Xiuyuan and Wen Qinnuan were both from Donglin City. They remembered that Gu Liyue's sister had once competed with her for a piece of armor, and they had some vague guesses in their hearts.
He smiled and said to everyone: "It wasn't me, it was the armor on my body that blocked the attack, so I'm fine, but the armor may be broken."
Xiahou Jingrong said, "You can't take risks alone for us in the future."
Yun Lizhi: "Yeah, I was scared to death."
Wen Qinnuan also nodded: "We are a team, we must live and die together!"
Su He said dejectedly: "It's all my fault that I have caused trouble for everyone."
Xiao Ju was originally trying to reduce his presence and stand in the corner because of what he had just said. When he heard Su He say this, he couldn't help but refute him.
"He kid, I tell you, we are friends. We are friends who share hardships and happiness together."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Gu Liyue turned around and said coldly, "Who told me not to float away just now?"
Xiao Ju was muttering something, but no one could hear clearly.
Gu Liyue continued, "Are you still asking me why I died?"
Xiao Ju said embarrassedly: "My eyes are blurred by tears, so I can't see clearly."
Gu Liyue felt mixed emotions and regretted not giving everyone a hint, causing them to experience such a shock.
She looked at everyone and said seriously, "I usually don't fight a battle I'm not sure of. Since I dare to stand up, I can guarantee that everything will be fine. Everyone, please trust me."
Everyone looked at her determined expression and said, "Okay."
Nie Hengzhou: "Gu Liyue, you can't take any more risks."
Gu Liyue glanced at him and said, "No. Please help me see if the armor can be repaired later."
The corners of Nie Hengzhou's eyes were slightly red, and the small red mole at the corner of his left eye seemed to be melted into the red. He looked at her steadily, and nodded after a moment.
Then he took out the plum blossom hairpin and inserted it into Gu Liyue's bun without saying a word.
"The armor is broken. For safety, wear the hairpin! It can at least help you block the attack of a Yuanying stage cultivator."
Gu Liyue knew that he was also frightened by the scene just now, and she really needed this hairpin now.
I had no choice but to say, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
Seeing that she didn't refuse, Nie Hengzhou's expression softened.
Gu Liyue's face was a little unnatural. She turned to look at the others and said, "We need to think about how to escape by noon tomorrow. Since someone in Meiyin City wants to kill us, we must be on guard."
Everyone felt a headache when they thought about tomorrow's events, worried that Ling Shi would kill the donkey. The nine of them had no chance of going head-to-head with the mermaid.
Currently, I only know Xiao Hui in the palace, and Ling Qian outside the palace. Connections are useless, and there's no chance of success.
At 9:00 a.m. the next day, guards came to inform them that it was time to set off.
The nine people followed the guards and reunited with Ling Shi.
Ling Shi was wearing formal attire, which was much more formal than the one they saw yesterday.
It was an intricate black robe, embroidered with red totems and studded with gems, exquisite and gorgeous.
Her hair was tied into a high bun and she wore a set of ruby headpieces. The whole mermaid was radiant and full of aura.
Gu Liyue and the others followed her and a group of mermaids to the temple.
The temple should be dedicated to the ascended monk. His statue in the temple is lifelike. He stands on a high platform with a trident in his right hand. He has a handsome face and a tall and well-proportioned figure, giving people a feeling of powerful aura.
Gu Liyue and others stood aside, watching the mermaids go through the process in the temple like a sacrifice. Half an hour passed.
Ling Shi waved away the other mermaids and took the nine of them to the forbidden area. Originally, Ling Shi only wanted to take Su He to the forbidden area, but Gu Liyue had persuaded her before.
Gu Liyue said to her: "After all, one more cultivator means one more hope. Maybe Su He is not suitable, but others are!"
Ling Shi also thought it made sense, and she also eagerly wanted to gain the recognition of the artifact.
She wanted supreme power and wanted to be recognized by all mermaids.
Gu Liyue had wanted to ask how he knew the method to awaken the artifact, but Ling Shi was unwilling to say more, so she had no choice but to give up.
Now Gu Liyue and the others had no choice but to wait and see what happened, and then act accordingly.
Ling Shi was followed by a team of guards. Xiao Xuan told Gu Liyue that these guards were at the middle stage of the Golden Core, while Ling Shi was at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core.
The cultivation level of the mermaids is generally not high, and there should be very few who are in the God Transformation Stage like the clan leader!
At this time, Ling Shi brought them and the guards to the forbidden area, and she ordered the guards to guard the area.
With Gu Liyue, the other nine people walked into the forbidden area. Although it was called a forbidden area, it was actually a palace. The palace was very large, and a fluctuation of spiritual power came from inside.
The strange thing about this palace is that there is no sea water in it, only a waterway extending into the palace.
Everyone felt strange. Is this a barrier?
This waterway should be used by the mermaids to enter the palace!
The palace was also built very luxuriously, all using white jade that exudes spiritual power.
Ling Shi knew without even looking that everyone must be shocked.
She explained, "The artifact was originally in this palace. When the entire city sank to the bottom of the sea, the palace looked like this. Perhaps our ancestor's Taoist partner built it so that they could stay together forever."
As he said this, he invited everyone into the hall. Only then did Gu Liyue realize that there were more than nine people and one mermaid here. There was also a mermaid swimming at the end, and he also followed into the palace.
Gu Liyue and nine others stood on the ground of the palace, while Ling Shi and the mermaid were swimming in the waterway.
Gu Liyue and the others performed a magic spell to dry their bodies.
Xiao Ju couldn't help but say, "It's still more comfortable on land."
The furnishings in the palace were also extremely luxurious, with luminous pearls placed on the walls on both sides and shelves against the walls.
There are various ornaments on the shelves. The grade of many of them cannot be seen, but one can feel the rich spiritual energy emanating from them, and they are all magical instruments and treasures of high quality.
They walked and looked around, and although they were alert in their hearts, they had a playful expression on their faces.
Walking to the innermost part of the palace, there was a trident placed on a wide table.
This artifact is about two meters and two meters long. At this moment, it is dim and lifeless, like a weathered old man, silent and silent.
