Seeing that Daoist Fengteng didn't say anything more, Li Sisui decisively said:
"I'll go to the first one!"
"I'm second..."
"Then I'll have to go third. Speed it up!"
Bang!
Li Sisui kicked open the small door, behind which was a narrow passage that could only accommodate one person at a time. The passage was long and narrow. Li Sisui pressed himself against the wall and quickly moved his legs to squeeze in!
The narrow passage was less than 100 meters long. If it weren't for the cramped space that made it impossible to run normally, it would have been possible to pass through in just a few breaths. As soon as Li Sisui passed through the narrow passage, his eyes were suddenly opened up.
Suddenly, the surroundings became unusually quiet. The floor was thick and soft, making no sound when you stepped on it. The whole space felt like a huge study, filled with the aroma of books!
However, from the moment Li Sisui entered, his eyes never left the wall, because there was a painting hanging in the middle of the wall. It was a portrait painting with delicate texture and light colors. The person in the painting was so lifelike that you could almost hear him breathing!
Li Sisui glanced at the painting once, then couldn't look away. He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his face filled with disbelief, because he recognized the person in the painting. Not only did he recognize him, but he was also quite familiar with him, making him both strange and familiar!
The person in the painting is none other than Lingyun, Li Sisui's beloved senior brother!
In the painting, Lingyun is dressed in a plain robe, with a smile in his eyes and a faint halo behind him, making him appear incredibly holy. Upon closer inspection, one can see a dark mass of people prostrating themselves at Lingyun's feet, all of them bowing in worship!
Sage Hill, Sage's Residence, Lingyun?
Could it be that Senior Brother Lingyun is the sage in the legend of Sage Hill?
Li Sisui couldn't believe his own deduction, or perhaps, that so-called mantle of a sage had already been inherited by Senior Brother Lingyun long ago.
He was completely dumbfounded!
What's going on here? Why is there a portrait of Senior Brother Lingyun hanging on the wall of the deepest underground chamber in the Sage's Mansion? And what does this painting mean?
Countless questions, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, sprang from his head. All the rare treasures and exotic items were no longer important. Just then, he suddenly heard Feng Teng Dao Ren's scream, followed by Leng Ru Shuang's angry voice!
Immediately afterward, the sounds of fierce fighting rang out outside. With a loud explosion, before he could even unleash his Slow Sword Domain, he was knocked to the ground by the powerful shockwave!
Li Sisui fell heavily to the ground, now much closer to the portrait, and the jade pendant in his bosom jingled again:
"The Sage's Palace has begun to accelerate its ascension to heaven. You must leave the palace immediately, or you will all be swept into the spatial turbulence!"
"Oh no! It's a demon! That beast swallowed one of my arms! Run! We have to leave the Sage's Palace. If we don't get out now, we won't be able to leave!"
The voices of Fairy Qingdai and Daoist Fengteng reached Li Sisui's ears one after the other. He was jolted awake and finally realized the seriousness of the problem!
Although he was blessed with the protagonist's aura and didn't need to worry as much as the other two, after his previous experience of wandering into Demon Mountain, he didn't want to wander into any strange places again...
After tearing down Lingyun's portrait, he disregarded everything else and unleashed his Slow Sword Domain, using the slow sword to clear a path. Judging from his posture, he intended to force his way out!
However, due to the suppression of his divine sense, as soon as Li Sisui left the secret chamber, he felt dizzy. His unstoppable slow sword vanished in the blink of an eye, and the slow sword domain collapsed without a trace, returning to nothingness...
His sea of consciousness dried up again. Without the support of his consciousness, he could not unleash either the slow sword or the domain. Li Sisui could not help but smile bitterly. Then his head spun, his body staggered, and he fell to the side!
With a thud, it felt like he had bumped into a ball of cotton, soft, sweet and fragrant, which instantly invigorated him. Li Sisui barely opened his eyes and then realized that he had bumped into Leng Rushuang!
"Three-headed red wolf demon! This is just its juvenile form. Get out of here! This guy should be dormant inside and hasn't fully awakened yet. Once it's fully awake, nobody will be leaving!"
The demon race is a powerful race that exists only in the Asura Ridge in legends. They are gifted, have strong bloodlines, and their physical bodies are comparable to magical artifacts. Some of them are even divine beings who know heaven-defying supernatural powers and techniques!
Feng Teng Dao Ren clutched the bleeding wound on his left arm with his right hand, his face deathly pale. He never expected that behind that door was this deadly Yama!
The three-headed red wolf demon was still sleepy. One of its heads was chewing on half of Feng Teng Dao Ren's arm, while the other two heads hadn't even opened their eyes. Just as Leng Ru Shuang had said, they were not fully awake yet!
"withdraw!"
A red streak suddenly appeared before their eyes. The red streak, like a swimming dragon, swept up the injured Feng Teng Daoren and the fallen Li Sisui, and shot them backward!
Feeling the familiar red ribbon around his waist, Li Si's spirits lifted. He looked up and saw that the three narrow doors in the secret room had been pierced one after another by a thick demonic claw!
Then the three-headed red wolf demon expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, from a body that was only the size of an adult calf at the beginning to the size of a mound in just a few breaths!
The head in the middle, which was previously no bigger than a basketball, has now swelled to dozens of times its original size as the body has expanded, instantly filling the entire secret room. Its face is ferocious, with interlocking fangs, and a fierce and violent aura emanates from it!
Li Sisui was fully awake. His body flew backward along with the red ribbon, and only after he was some distance away from the secret room could he see clearly!
It turned out that the secret room was actually a cage imprisoning the wolf demon. The three narrow doors were the only passage for the wolf demon to contact the outside world, just like the ventilation holes specially dug out when keeping pets in a confined space!
No wonder when Li Sixui broke through the door, he vaguely saw intricate and complex patterns engraved on the broken door panel, which looked like some kind of sophisticated array!
