Immortal Road.

Chapter 608: Standing Alone at the Door, Deathly Words
The hall was suddenly silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

Lin Shan stood in front of the pillar, silent, with his fists clenched.

One step, just one step away!
The three men climbed up the ladder and the mechanism closed, blocking them outside!
Looking at this main house from the front yard, the second floor leads to the pavilion at the back, which is a total of nine stories high.

You can imagine how many treasures are there!

Each level is bound to be accompanied by tests, and each level is progressive, waiting for the destined person.

He was blocked by Zhilian Zhenren and Anchun Daoist, two burdens, Gaoyou Shangren and Han Zhen Lao Weng, two troublemakers, and Heilong Shangren's four disciples.
It was delayed for three whole periods!
In the end, he still lost the opportunity and was ruthlessly abandoned by the people in front of him!

Who wouldn't be furious?
He turned around.

There were four furtive figures at the door, tiptoeing to escape.

"Four of you, why didn't you follow your old ghost master and go up together?"

The four of them stopped awkwardly. When they heard the sinister questioning, their heartbeats quickened involuntarily and sweat appeared on their foreheads.

Lin Shan’s strength just now has been deeply imprinted in his memory.

Not only did he force his way through the combined forces of the four of them, he was also fighting outside with Master Gao You and Old Man Han Zhen, two late Jindan stage masters. Everyone could see it clearly from the doorway!

Now that they no longer had the advantage of terrain and their master had left them alone, they were terrified and managed to respond with a forced smile.

"The treasures above are precious and should be left to masters like Master and you. It is inconvenient for us little people to get involved."

"Oh, yes, yes! How can we, who are we, be worthy of enjoying the Star Mansion with you?"

"It was really hard to disobey the master's order just now. As a disciple, I had no choice but to do it. Please be magnanimous and don't be so polite."

"Take your time to search. Everything in here is yours. We are leaving now."

These people carefully held him steady while moving towards the door.

They could naturally feel Lin Shan's anger, and were afraid of accidentally angering this gentleman, so they quickly spoke in a humble manner to appease him.

"I haven't told you to leave yet. Did your feet slip?"

Lin Shan's gloomy gaze made the dark hall seem even more terrifying, as an invisible pressure enveloped the place.

A chilling murderous intent seemed to be there and not there, surrounding them.

The door is clearly right under my feet, but it seems like an insurmountable barrier and I cannot cross it!
Several people's legs were shaking, and they wanted to move forward but didn't dare to.

I cursed that damn master in my heart. He didn't even bring my brothers with him when he went up there, and just left them there so heartlessly!
Obviously, on weekdays, when Black Dragon needed his disciples, he would teach them respectfully. But when it came to opportunities in the Star Mansion, he would abandon these helpers without hesitation!
Zhenren Zhilian and Taoist Anchun at the door had a hint of disappointment in their eyes, but they hid it well.

If Lin Shan had followed the three late Jindan masters in at that time.

They will definitely escape!

What a great opportunity
Once you enter the attic inside the Star Mansion, you can no longer take care of yourself. This is a godsend opportunity.

unfortunately
They actually felt sorry for Lin Shan, as his plan failed at the last minute.

I almost got my freedom back!
"Fellow Daoist, we were forced into a corner just now. You saw it too. Under the filthy gaze of the old ghost Black Dragon, how dare we brothers disobey his orders?"

"I don't want to hear these explanations."

"From today on, we have seen his true colors. We will immediately turn around and leave him. We will sever our relationship with that old ghost. Since he is unkind, don't blame us for being unjust!"

“I just want to know one thing”

"If you let us go now, we will leave Xing Mansion and turn around and leave without staying even a step. If we see you again in the future, we will stay away from you!"

"Do you know how to open the mechanism?"

"Well, this mechanism is a puzzle of ancient star characters. We don't know much about it. If you need someone to solve it, we can find it for you."

"Since you don't know, then go to hell!"

"no."

A big and thick pillar came crashing towards the door like a bell, not giving them any time to explain!

What kind of person is the Black Dragon old ghost? Whether these disciples can sever the master-disciple relationship or not has nothing to do with him.

Since I can't use them, I'll just kill them all!
The four were horrified.

There was no thought of resisting at all. They immediately raised their feet and pushed each other, rushing to the door for fear of being left here!

But the door was so small that no one could get out if they squeezed together. Seeing the attack coming from behind, they all took action to defend themselves.

As a result, when the bell rang, all the secret techniques were instantly countered and the magic weapons were also beaten back.

"Oh!"

The totem pole was stuck in the door frame.

Circles of star patterns iterated up and down all around, and the entire cave was strong enough, but it still killed two people in one fell swoop!
The remaining two were trapped in the hall and couldn't get out. They shouted in fear and begged for mercy.

"Mercy, no!!!"

"die!"

After a while.

The two men were also killed without a complete body, leaving a pool of blood on the ground.

Lin Shan took back the Dingsha Five Elements Bell and the Totem Pole, took away the storage bag without even looking at it, and called the two younger brothers outside the door to come in.

Zhenren Zhilian and Taoist Anchun swallowed their saliva and walked into the main house trembling with fear.

They were becoming more and more afraid of this young man. They didn't know what would happen if he made them unhappy and squeezed them to death.
Lin Shan used to take care of the feelings of these two people, but now he is no longer in that mood.

"Do you understand Xingwen? Read it to me."

The astrological symbols on the pillars of the hall are all strange and varied. Some look like spoons, some like compasses, some like sheep horns, and some like leaves.

He needed to interpret and then compare, go upstairs as quickly as possible and catch up with the people in front of him.

"My Lord, this seems to be stating a rule."

Master Zhi Lian knows a little about star language.

Because he once studied with the Hongdong Patriarch and tracked down the secret treasures of Yuxing in the Swallowing Star Mountains for decades, he also learned some things from what he saw and heard.

In order to prove his worth, he dissected and translated the text with difficulty and obscure language, and explained the general meaning to Lin Shan.

"Huaning Star Mansion, ranked seventh among the nine star mansions, the star array master has nine floors of attic, corresponding to the nine levels of checkpoints, interpreting the star text and puzzle the astrological signs."

"It's a competition among all the people. There are three treasures on each floor. You can get one if you crack it. If you fail, you can't try again."

"Fail three times in a row and be expelled from Xingfu"

"The maximum number of entries you can make in this round is."

“There are already a number of people.”

He looked up at the ceiling, where four small spots of light were wandering in the nebula.

"Four people."

After hearing this, Lin Shan looked up and saw that there were indeed four people who had entered.

From the explanation of the Star Text rules, it seems that there are rankings for the Star Mansions, as well as different emphases and tests.

"How do I get in?"

This is his biggest concern now.

Don’t worry about whether you can solve the puzzle after entering, just go in first!
Master Zhi Lian hesitated and did not dare to speak for a while.

"Say!"

Lin Shan is extremely anxious now, how can he let him hesitate for a long time?
Zhi Lian Zhenren had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Sir, the place is full and has exceeded the quota. You cannot enter for the time being."

“Can’t get in?!”

Lin Shan suddenly understood something, and hurriedly strode out of the door, then turned back and looked up at the dangerous building behind the main house.

It was discovered that the third and fourth floors were filled with nebulae, and one could see inside through the windows. Princess Lianjing went upstairs alone, while Prince Jingchen and the old ghost Black Dragon fell behind on one floor.

These people could sense the prying eyes of the outside world and had time to glance out the window.

Princess Lian Jing took a look and turned back. She was busy trying to crack it, trying to maintain her speed.

Even though they had a pleasant conversation before, Prince Jingchen didn't care about him at all now. He pretended not to know him and continued to focus on his own things.

Only the old ghost Black Dragon showed a contemptuous expression towards Lin Shan downstairs outside the window.

He knew that if he left, those four useless disciples would definitely not survive.

But what can I do?

This kind of disciple was not cultivated by himself from childhood. There were many refugee cultivators in Jiaozhou who were in urgent need of background and protection. He could have as many disciples as he wanted, and there was no shortage!
Unfortunately, Xiao Qinglong, the only disciple he had raised since childhood, actually betrayed him. Whenever he thought of this, he gritted his teeth.

"Wait, wait until I come out of Xingfu, then I will deal with this evil disciple."

Lin Shan looked at the people on the pavilion. The distance between them was the farthest at this moment.

He could see it, but he couldn't get up there.

All they could do was watch helplessly as the treasure was taken away by the other party and be a spectator on the sidelines, with nothing they could do!
But suddenly he thought of something and looked higher up.

The nebulae there are heavy as lead.

A ghostly light was swimming on the seventh floor.

The next moment, he suddenly jumped out and jumped to the eighth floor!
Lin Shan couldn't see clearly, but that didn't stop him from guessing the reason in an instant. Before those three people, there was already someone who was far ahead!
Thousand Machines!
This person is fast with every step. No one can keep up with him, and no one can hold him back!
Maybe he has taken away countless treasures, maybe he didn't come here for that at all!

Climbing up to the nine-story treasure pavilion, what will be waiting for him there?
Lin Shan strode back to the inner hall.

With so many insiders rushing forward ahead, and me suffering from the lack of information channels and already falling so far behind, I am even more unwilling to give up.

"Fellow Daoist Anchun, I need you."

He pulled Taoist An Chun up and looked at him seriously.

"Tell me how I can get up there?"

Taoist An Chun was so frightened that his legs went weak and he kept trembling.

"Sir, it's clearly written in the Star Text that there are enough people and we can't get in."

"I want you to calculate for me!"

Lin Shan refused to give in and just stared at him closely.

The Taoist Priest Zhilian next to him lowered his head wisely and said nothing.

Taoist An Chun did not dare to disobey. He was afraid that the other party would say something like "next year's death anniversary" again, so he had to obey the order.

But after a few breaths, his face turned pale and his eyes darkened.

"My lord, I can't go up."

"really?"

"really!"

“I just don’t believe it.”

Lin Shan paced in the hall, feeling extremely anxious and restless.

Suddenly it occurred to me that if I couldn’t get up, then I couldn’t get up. Maybe there were other loopholes I could find.

"Calculate again! Calculate how to obtain the Star Mansion!"

"What???"

The two men were shocked and dumbfounded after listening to his outrageous remarks.

What does it mean to get the Star Palace?

Are you going to move the Xing Mansion away?
Can this thing be moved away?
As Yuxing’s secret trial place, who knows if it can be moved!

They didn't know the inside story and just thought that Lin Shan had gone crazy.

"Count it, count it for me now, immediately!"

Lin Shan pointed at Taoist An Chun with an obvious sense of coercion, leaving the old quail nowhere to hide.

He hesitated, looking embarrassed.

"Sir, asking me to calculate this nonsense is a sheer waste of my life."

"Count it for me!"

Lin Shan roared.

He looked at him fiercely, as if he had exhausted all his options and could only take a desperate gamble.

But the problem is
You are betting my life!

Taoist An Chun had no choice but to do as he was told.

After a moment, he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.

He consumed too much lifespan this time, and he has aged beyond recognition!

I didn't even notice it.

Zhenren Zhilian, who was standing next to him, saw this and felt sad, but dared not say a word.

Taoist An Chun opened his eyes, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"What...what's going on? It's really possible that the Star Mansion could be taken away."

Lin Shan hurried forward, grabbed his shoulders and shook him hard.

"Tell me, tell me quickly, what is the solution?"

Taoist An Chun was so weak that he was almost unable to breathe due to being shaken by him, and he felt as if he was about to fall apart.

"Stop, stop, let me speak."

Lin Shan then realized that the old quail had been so exhausted by this divination that it seemed that he had almost lost all his money for retirement.

She quickly let go of him and whispered softly.

"You say it and I listen."

Taoist An Chun's eyes were cloudy, and his speech slowed down unconsciously. He felt as if he was exhausted, with a vague feeling that his mind was clear and empty, as if he had ascended to heaven.

"The method is to follow the defects of the stars, remove the loose floor tiles under the left screen, destroy the long-disrepaired array foundation, and thus open a gap in the house."

"and then?"

"Then. Then, there will be a doorway leading to the backyard, where..."

"You say it and I listen."

Lin Shan held the old quail with his hands, fearing that it would be blown down by a gust of wind.

He knew that he had wasted this man's lifespan to tell fortunes for him time and time again, and had almost squeezed out the rest of his time, and he was not far from passing away!
If this old man hadn't finished speaking, I would have been heartbroken for a long time!

Taoist An Chun's lips were trembling, and he was having hallucinations, looking like he was on his deathbed.

"Enter from the backyard, walk to the end, don't look back, and you will see a well."

"Well, well"

"Sir, I actually have one more thing I want to ask of you."

"If I can't."

Lin Shan was very anxious, but he didn't dare to yell at him, for fear of yelling the old man to death.

"It's okay, just finish talking first, and I'll agree to whatever you want later!"

"No, no, I have to say it. Otherwise, there will be no chance. My grandson is in the Star Devouring Gate, in the group of people you have trapped. Please take good care of him."

"Okay, I promise, go on!"

"His name is An Du, and I gave him the Taoist name myself."

"Okay, okay, I got it. Tell me the method now! What about the well? What should we do next?"

Lin Shan was almost going crazy with anxiety. He nodded and took note of it. He would ask Li Yuanjie to find him and train him after returning. Now was not the time to talk about this.

"Well Water Well"

Fellow Daoist Anchun’s speech speed is getting slower and slower, his eye sockets are sunken, his lips are cracked, his cheeks are drooping, and he has difficulty speaking. His life span has been overdrawn, and even gods cannot save him!
He was so confused by an inexplicable fortune-telling that he felt his fate had come. He suddenly lost his former motivation and was on the verge of death.

"Well, then"

"And then what???"

"Then."

"Pfft!"

His body swayed weakly for a few times, and he fell to the ground. He died on the spot before he could finish his words!

"I"

Lin Shan was speechless, and Zhi Lian Zhenren next to him was stunned!
