Rising Xianxia World

Chapter 42
Gu Qiubai put away his thoughts of studying in an instant, he almost forgot that the two of them are still in an inexplicable place.

The sound of "rumbling" came suddenly, and before Gu Qiubai could react, the ground around the two of them suddenly sank.

There was also a loud noise from four directions in the southeast, northwest, and it seemed that something heavy had fallen.

The changes came and went quickly, and the surroundings soon returned to calm.

Gu Qiubai looked around and found that the two were already in an underground palace.

The underground palace is round and quite spacious. It looks like a football field. It is a little dark, only illuminated by the night pearls inlaid on the walls of the underground palace.

Through the dim light emitted by the night pearl, Gu Qiubai took a closer look and found a row of stone piers more than one meter high in four directions of the underground palace, which looked a bit like an altar.

These stone piers are exactly the same, even the spacing seems to be exactly the same, and the arrangement is very regular.

There is a door at the end of the four rows of stone piers, and the door seems to be inlaid with ancient totems, which is not very real!

The entire underground palace was empty and silent, only the faint light flickering, which seemed a bit gloomy.

"Where is this place?" Jiu Piaoling asked with a guilty conscience, subconsciously leaning against Gu Qiubai.

Gu Qiubai was also at a loss, they should have been swept away by the undercurrent at the bottom of the water, why did they come to this ghostly place somehow?

He looked at his feet and found that the two were also standing on a stone pier in the underground palace, and they seemed to be in the center.

On this stone pier, it seems that the distance to any door is the same.

Gu Qiubai thought in his heart, should he and Jiu Piaoling choose one of the doors to leave?

It doesn't make sense, they are no more than a hundred meters away from the door, and with their cultivation base, they can reach any door in a second or two.

If you want to go out at that time, don't you just have to try one by one?
"Anyway, let's get out of here first." Gu Qiubai said.

Looking at the gloomy scene around him, he still couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

Especially when he silently summoned the devil system just now, but found that the system did not respond at all, as if it was down.

Gu Qiubai scolded his mother in his heart, this system really likes to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

But yes, the system just wants to train people to be giants of the magic way for a certain purpose, and I just happened to be selected, and the system doesn't care about my life or death at all.

In the words of the system, if the host dies, it can quickly find another one.

Gu Qiubai sighed: "It seems that it is more reliable to rely on yourself..."

"Huh?" Suddenly, Jiu Piaoling beside him frowned, "It's so heavy, it feels like it's stuck in the mud."

Gu Qiubai was slightly surprised, and tried to lift his legs, but he really found that there seemed to be a huge boulder tied under his feet, making it difficult to move.

Just as the two were trying to move their bodies, the ear-piercing sound of friction resounded in the underground palace again.

Accompanied by the sound of friction, there seemed to be the sound of water flowing from under the stone pier, and it poured into the underground palace in an instant.

Gu Qiubai raised his eyebrows, looked down, and found that there seemed to be silver water flowing under the stone pier, emitting a cold light.

Among them, there are about nine stone piers with a hole the size of a bowl, and these silver water streams are pouring out from these stone piers.

In the silver water flow, there are non-stop bubbles, a bit like magma, and it seems that the temperature is extremely high.

"This is... Xuanyin Sunflower Water." Jiu Piaoling said lightly, his tone full of surprise.

"Xuanyin Sunflower Water?" Gu Qiubai looked at Jiu Piaoling, "What is this?"

Ninth Piaoling took a deep breath: "I've only read about this water in an ancient book. Xuanyin sunflower water is also called Huangquan water. It was refined by Huang Quan, a strong woman in the transformation stage thousands of years ago, with her own skills. A kind of terrifying spiritual water that was produced, when cultivators dipped in it, there was no bones left for a moment, and the old mother of Huangquan even seriously injured a cultivator at the stage of refining by relying on the Xuanyin sunflower water."

"Later, the cultivator in the Void Refining Stage summoned his fellow Taoists and wanted to strangle Old Mother Huang Quan, but she escaped. However, there was no news of Old Mother Huang Quan in the world of cultivation after that, and Xuanyin Sunflower Water naturally disappeared with Old Mother Huang Quan. And lost in the long river of history."

"You mean, this place is very likely to be Huang Quan's old mother's cave?" Gu Qiubai asked.

"Looking at it like this, it shouldn't be a cave, but rather... a cave." Ninth Piaoling said uncertainly.

"Dongtian?"

"The so-called Dongtian means another piece of heaven and earth." Jiu Piaoling nodded, "There are roughly two types of Dongtian, one is formed innately, and the other is created by man. The former is called Xiaolingtian or The secret realm, the latter is called a blessed place or a ruin."

"Some sects have more or less one or two blessed lands for some elite disciples to practice and enlighten." Jiu Piaoling continued, "However, Little Spirit Heaven is extremely rare, appearing randomly around the world, without any rules Xun, even the big sects can’t grasp it, Xiaolingtian is different from blessed land, because it was formed innately, it contains extremely rich materials, and there was even a Tianbao, which caused turmoil among ascetics.”

Gu Qiubai nodded, he understood roughly, he looked around the scene, and said: "Since there is Huangquan's mother's Xuanyin sunflower water here, then if it is a cave, it should be created artificially, right?"

"Yes." Ninth Piaoling agreed.

"Mother Huang Quan is only in the stage of transforming spirits, does she have the ability to open up caves?" Gu Qiubai couldn't help asking.

He has learned from the system before that although Huashen is already extremely powerful among ascetics, it is only a preliminary understanding of the world, and it is still far from being able to open up the world.

"Of course Huang Quan's mother doesn't have this ability." Jiu Piaoling nodded, then changed the topic, "However, her dual cultivation partner Qianshou Shengjun has this ability. Qianshou Shengjun was a famous master of refining weapons and magic circle Master, I remember that he once used the most precious Qiankun glazed stone and combined with his formation skills to create a mysterious paradise for Huang Quan's old mother, which may be this place."

Ninth Piaoling had a bitter expression on his face: "This cave has a long history, and the restriction on the entrance of the cave may have expired long ago, so we just broke in unluckily."

"Miss Piaoling, you really know a lot." Gu Qiubai praised.

"Hmph, of course, this girl has scored countless papers." Ninth Piaoling said arrogantly.

Gu Qiubai originally wanted to ask about the identity of the Ninth Piaoling, but after thinking about it, let it go. Although this girl is a little ignorant of the world, she is eccentric, so she might not tell herself the truth.

"Then, girl Piao Ling, who has reviewed countless papers, can you point us to a way to get us out of this ghostly place?" Gu Qiubai half-jokingly asked.

"Ah, I, I..." Ninth Piaoling blushed, and faltered, "I don't know, it's not written in the book how to leave here."

Just as the Ninth Piaoling was speaking, the entire underground palace "rumbled" again, and then the Xuanyin sunflower water poured out from the nine stone piers again, gradually filling up.

Gu Qiubai looked at the little bit of Xuanyin sunflower water coming up, shrugged and said: "In this case, then we can only wait for death slowly."
