Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

Rumble~~~
The huge stone door at the end of the huge maze slowly opened.

Shangguan Yun, who was somewhere in the maze, was furious:
"Who has opened the real door to the underground palace behind?"

He was confident that he had Xu Minjun under his control and that he had a lot of key information and intelligence about the Hero King's underground palace in Xu Minjun's mind, so he would definitely be able to gain an absolute advantage.

For example, the misty formation where he is now is a clear proof of this.

With the help of the 'Command Cloud Flag' in his hand, he can directly command the Yunchui Formation, making all the clouds and restrictions in the formation obey his orders.

"Could it be that old bull nose Yelu Xuandu?" Sui You said in disbelief: "He walked ahead of us?"

"Impossible. Although this person has the magic weapon 'Yi Qi Ding' of the Eighth Realm Qigong, each of the 'Eight Gates Formation' in this maze is powerful enough to deal with him. It is already the limit for him to be able to protect himself. How can he be faster than us?"

Shangguan Yun denied and shook his head. For some reason, he suddenly remembered the huge palm print in an alley in the inner city of Baojiao County half a year ago:

"Master, do you still remember how Zhao Yuyan died?"

Sui You was reminded by this and remembered it. His expression changed slightly: "The mysterious man who used the Xu family's peerless martial arts 'Mountain Support Palm' to kill Zhao Yuyan?"

Until now, they have not been able to find the whereabouts of that person.

I just always suspected that he might be related to Pyeongan-do.

After all, the Xu family had previously cooperated with Ping An Dao.

"No matter what, whether the people from Heian Dao got more information than Min Jun, or someone accidentally broke into the correct entrance to the underground palace, we can't let others get the upper hand."

Shangguan Yun said calmly to himself:
"You can find out if you take a look at it."

He waved the "Command Cloud Flag" in his palm and shouted:
"escape!"

Suddenly, this world of clouds and mist enveloped them and moved towards the direction where the noise was heard.

This Yunchui Formation is one of the Eight Gates Shocking God Formations, and the Eight Gates Formation can move freely and will randomly change its position in the entire underground palace.

Shangguan Yun made use of this characteristic, which can be called the "Cloud Array", to cross the fog of numerous underground palaces, directly move through space, and move towards the target location.

………………

Boom!

Master Chen Ku and his two disciples looked at the tall gate that slowly opened after the death of the golden-haired Thunder Mastiff. The gate was thirty feet high, and the three of them standing at the gate felt like ants entering the kingdom of giants.

As the gate was opened by one third, it was still more than ten feet wide.

Chen Ku followed closely behind the two elders, Shan Lingguan and Qin Yuxian, and slowly walked into the gate that was emitting a faint white mist.

Through the clouds at the gate.

After walking in.

Suddenly, there was a wonderful scene before my eyes, a world of its own.

I saw that the place where they were standing was a high platform halfway up the mountain. Going down the mountain road, there were rows of stone steps. At the end of the stone steps, there was a building that looked like a royal garden.

The palace in the distance is majestic and ancient. Every brick and tile contains a heavy historical charm, and the carved beams and painted buildings reveal a mysterious and vicissitudes of life temperament.

"What a huge project!" Chen Ku couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Indeed, to be able to carve out such a paradise underground, I wonder how much effort the Mountain Supporting Heavenly King Xiong Ying put into building this place."

Shan Lingguan took the lead and stepped forward, looking at the palace complex at the foot of the mountain in the distance, and said:

"The 'Suppressing Stone' you mentioned, my disciple, should be in the 'General Hall' in the palace complex ahead. If we go directly to this hall, we can master all the formations in this underground palace."

The three of them walked down the stone steps and soon arrived at the palace corridor below. The corridor was winding and made of mahogany, as if they had entered a royal palace. The guardrails on both sides were made of stone, and they were carved with stone sculptures of strange beasts in unified shapes, some with bared fangs and claws, some fierce and peaceful, guarding this mysterious palace.

Wow~~
Walking across a stone arch bridge, there is mist on the bridge, which makes it look more like a fairyland.

Chen Ku compared the location of this place in his mind, and said in surprise:

"Master, Senior Brother, the one ahead seems to be the 'Xia Wang Medicine Garden' depicted on the map."

"Medicine garden?" Shan Lingguan became interested and said, "It is said that there was a 'treasure herb garden' in the imperial palace of Dahongjing City back then, where all kinds of rare flowers and precious herbs were planted."

Qin Yuxian also said that he had heard of this matter: "The Treasure Herb Garden in the capital of Dahong was modeled after the ancient emperor's 'Kunlun Garden'. Although it was only imitated less than one-tenth, it can be said that it contains many seeds of rare and precious herbs. Later, it was cultivated by the Hong Dynasty's Sinong Yamen. It is said that the herbs in it can produce thousands of 'magic pills' every year after being processed."

Chen Ku was also very curious after listening to this.

So the three of them walked through the corridor and entered the medicine garden. Before they walked far in, they saw a lotus leaf sparkling with silver luster in the pond not far away.

Beside the quiet pond, the lotus flowers stand gracefully and the water is clear and you can see the bottom.

"That is……"

Qin Yu first observed attentively, and suddenly became overjoyed, and said:
"That looks like a starlight lotus root. Junior brother's five-element body is only missing a water-element spiritual object. Take a quick look to see if there is any 'starlight divine water' condensed on the leaves of the lotus root."

"Starlight lotus root?" Chen Ku quickly looked through the information about this 'treasure herb' in his mind but found nothing. "Starlight lotus root is not only a treasure herb, but also a mother that can breed 'Starlight Divine Water', because it does not need other nutrients to grow, but mainly absorbs starlight."

Shan Lingguan also showed a happy expression:

"Once it has absorbed enough nutrients, one or two drops of Starlight Divine Water will condense on the lotus leaves. This Starlight Divine Water is part of the legendary Three Lights Divine Water. The so-called Three Lights Divine Water is made by refining the Sunlight Divine Water, Moonlight Divine Water, and Starlight Divine Water together. It is said that it can cure all poisons in the Three Realms and Six Paths, and overcome all so-called "incurable" poisons; it can also heal all wounds and diseases, and even bring dead trees back to life and bones back to life."

"So outrageous?!" Chen Ku was shocked.

Then he looked at the starlight lotus in the pond in the medicine garden, his eyes also burning with excitement.

"Stand here, I will go and pick it for you."

Shan Lingguan said solemnly:
"After all, this is the real medicine garden in the Xiawang Palace. It might be dangerous."

"I'll help my uncle." Qin Yu said first.

"Master, be careful." Chen Ku reminded quickly.

Shan Lingguan walked slowly to the edge of the pond, seemed to sense something, frowned slightly, and tentatively sent a small bolt of lightning into the pond.

Zila~~
However, before the lightning fell into the pond, a golden three-tailed carp had already flipped over in the pond. It jumped up, shook its three tails, and shot three water columns as thick as buckets towards Shan Lingguan!

Boom~~~
Before the water column got close to Shan Lingguan, a terrible water vapor storm brewed in the air, like a dark cloud pressing down on him.

"The eighth-level demon - the eight-tailed dragon fish!" Qin Yu blurted out first, his face changed drastically, and he quickly stood in front of Chen Ku.

“Eight Realms?” Chen Ku’s heart also accelerated. In such a small pond, there was actually an Eight Realms Dragon Fish lurking to guard the precious grass. He said repeatedly: “Master… If you can’t get it, forget it. It’s better to be careful!”

He didn't want the old man to fail here in his attempt to gather water-based spiritual creatures for him.

"Look down on your master?"

But Shan Lingguan rolled his eyes and gave Chen Ku a blank look. Facing the water vapor coming from the eight-tailed dragon fish, he pinched his five fingers and activated the "Weak Water Art" in his Hun Tian Ba ​​Body, making the water vapor coming towards him as soft as a feather, losing all weight.

And when the water vapor fell on him, he flipped his palm suddenly and hit the water vapor back. This time, the originally soft and weak water flow suddenly became as heavy as a thousand tons and smashed head-on into the eight-tailed dragon fish!

Wow~
The eight-tailed dragon fish's eyes became ferocious upon seeing this. A golden scale flashed on its forehead, and wing membranes appeared under its ribs and on its tail. With a flap of its wings, the water vapor in the pond instantly turned into countless water knives and spears, which rushed towards Shan Lingguan like an army of thousands.

But he didn't notice that when Shan Lingguan was fighting him, a black wind had quietly swept across the pond and turned into a big black wind hand, which pulled up the starlight lotus root swaying in the pond with its roots and leaves at once!
boom!
As the starlight lotus was picked, Shan Lingguan's Weak Water Technique and the water spear of the Eight-tailed Dragon Fish collided with each other.

Shan Lingguan picked this precious herb and stepped back in one direction without hesitation.

"Walk!!"

Qin Yu was well prepared and directly grabbed Chen Ku's body. The three of them instantly disappeared from the pond and appeared a hundred feet away!
Accompanied by a wave of water, it rushed up into the sky like a waterfall and turned into heavy rain that spread in all directions.

Although the eight-tailed dragon fish fell into the pond, it was unharmed. When it looked at the starlight lotus in the pond again, it had disappeared. It immediately let out a roar like a dragon's roar.

Roar! ! !
The sound waves are transmitted layer by layer.

However, Shan Lingguan, who was standing a hundred feet away and holding a lotus leaf as white as white jade in his hand, exhaled and said:

"What a great chivalrous king Pei Dongliu, he even moved the 'dragon fish' that was raised in the pond of the Dahong Palace to this underground palace. This dragon fish is a species that was once nourished by the dragon energy of the Dahong Dynasty. It is indestructible all over. Now it has eight tails and has even refined a 'dragon scale'. Even if I want to capture it, it will not be easy. Fortunately, our goal is the Starlight Lotus Root and Starlight Divine Water."

As he spoke, he picked up the starlight lotus root in his hand and looked at the lotus leaf carefully. Sure enough, in the center of the lotus leaf, there grew a pearl-like drop of water, which looked like a dewdrop, or a fruit growing on the lotus leaf.

boo~
With a light scratch of his fingers, Shan Lingguan picked up the small pearl-like silver water droplet and smiled bitterly at Chen:

"Disciple, you and I are very lucky. This Starlight Divine Water is just right for you to use to condense your Five Elements Body, and this Star Lotus Root can be used as the raw material for me to refine the 'Shenxiao Pill' to help my Five Thunder Art to reach a higher level of power."

"Thank you, master!"

Chen Ku took the precious "Starlight Divine Water" with both hands. While thanking his master, he also looked at the eight-tailed dragon fish in the pond that was going crazy but seemed unable to leave the candy. He whispered in his heart:
"The eight-tailed dragon fish was nourished by the dragon energy of Hongjing City? Doesn't that mean there is also dragon energy after it is killed? Or is it an eighth-level dragon energy?"

My heart beats faster just thinking about it.

What kind of dragon can the Eight Realms Dragon Qi transform into?

It must be higher-end than the dragon.

Golden dragon?

However, even Master Shan Lingguan admitted that the Eight Realms Dragon Fish was a bit tricky to deal with, so Chen Ku could only suppress his thoughts for the time being.

"The dragon fish is trapped by its roots after all, and fish cannot live without water. Now we have the starlight lotus root, and we can walk around it. It's a good opportunity to see if there are any other precious medicines in this medicine garden." Shan Lingguan said, and he did not forget to teach Chen Ku the formula of the Hun Tian Ba ​​Ti 'Weak Water Jue', saying: "You can take the starlight divine water now. Xiao Qin and I are here, and we will help you refine it while we walk, and achieve the fifth level of power. It will be incredibly helpful for you to break through the sixth level of formation network next."

When the Hun Tian Ba ​​Ti reaches the fifth level, it is a qualitative transformation, because once the endless circulation of the Five Elements is achieved in the body, no matter what kind of formation is arranged in the body, the foundation has been laid, and there is no fear of not being able to withstand the pressure of the formation.

Chen Ku did not act pretentiously. He directly swallowed the Three Lights Divine Water and followed the mantra given by his master, starting to refine it in his body while walking.

Qin Yuxian and Shan Lingguan injected two streams of true qi into his body at the same time to assist him in refining it.

In this way, the three of them bypassed the pond and entered the depths of the medicine garden.

As a result, many rare and precious medicines were discovered. (End of this chapter)
