Chapter 659: Crystal Palace, the Lost Heart Mirror Reappears
"Fuck Master Bai, run!"
Thousands of comments instantly appeared in the live broadcast room, and the number of online users soared to 300,000.
In the picture, a three-meter-tall bronze corpse pounces down from the air.
Dark green corpse fluid oozed out of the gaps in the armor, reflecting a strange color in the dim light of the night pearl.
Ye Bai leaned back to avoid the sweep of the sharp claws, and his military boots made a harsh sound as they scraped against the jade tiles.
The Taotie pattern on the corpse general's breastplate suddenly twisted and squirmed, transforming into three hideous ghost faces.
"This is the blood curse totem of the Nanzhao royal family!"
ID "Mojinxiaowei097" suddenly sent out a golden barrage: "Heart mirror! Destroy the heart mirror on its chest!"
The corpse general swung his arm, creating a fishy gust of wind, and Ye Bai used the force to leap onto the crystal pillar.
My fingertips touched something hard in my arms.
It was the dragon and phoenix key in the coffin.
Bang!
The collision between the key and the breastplate actually made a clear dragon roar.
The corpse general's movements suddenly froze, and fine Sanskrit characters appeared on the surface of his armor.
"The Three Pure Ones destroy the evil, and all evil retreats!"
Ye Bai bit his fingertip and drew a spell on the key, and the audience saw the key suddenly burst into green light.
An anonymous user suddenly spawned ten interstellar battleships in a row.
The comments scrolled wildly: "Master Bai, look at the right pillar! The Bagua Kan position!"
The corpse general let out a deafening roar, and the dome of the Crystal Palace began to drop broken crystals.
Guided by the barrage, Ye Bai discovered the secret compartment in the pillar.
The moment the key was inserted, the Big Dipper pattern covering the entire palace appeared on the ground.
The chest guard on the corpse general's breastplate shattered, revealing the dark red jade inside.
"This is the burial jade of the last king of Nan Zhao!"
Archaeologist Professor Chen suddenly appeared in the comment section: "Historical records show that King Zhao of Nan volunteered to transform himself into a demon in order to suppress the evil spirits in the earth veins."
"That key should start it...wait what is he doing!?"
Ye Bai had already torn off the corpse's helmet, and his rotten face was exactly the same as the man in the mural inside the coffin.
The black poison of the corpse spread up along the bronze sword, and the screen in the live broadcast room suddenly shook violently.
When the shot is restabilized.
The audience saw Ye Bai pressing the jade pendant between the corpse general's eyebrows and chanting obscure prayers.
The Crystal Palace began to shake violently, and the seven pillars lit up one after another.
The corpse let out a final wail before turning into ashes and dissipating in the suddenly appearing golden beam of light.
Ye Bai wiped the blood off his face and held up the blood-stained dragon and phoenix key to the camera: "Everyone, this is the real Beidou Cardinal Key."
The barrage suddenly fell silent.
A miniature star map appeared on the surface of the key, perfectly matching the crystal dome that was being reconstructed behind Ye Bai.
When the star map moved to a certain position, the roar of mechanisms turning came from deep in the underground palace.
“Thanks to my friends for the first aid kit.”
Ye Bai suddenly grinned and swung out a climbing rope to hook it onto the dome beam.
"But our adventure has only just begun."
The voice just fell.
The crystal walls separated from both sides, revealing a dark corridor.
Ye Bai walked into the corridor cautiously with a dagger in hand.
As you go forward, the corridor gradually becomes wider, and the stone walls on both sides are paved with bluestone bricks, showing the owner's sophistication and luxury.
At the end of the corridor, stands a huge door.
There are intricate patterns carved on the left side of the door, and a poem written on the right side.
When the Nanzhao Kingdom was first established, everything was in ruins and the people were living in poverty. The king personally visited the mausoleum to pray for blessings.
Ye Bai raised his eyes and looked towards the door.
The door is carved with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, and the four symbols representing good and bad luck.
"It was originally a very bad situation."
He sighed softly and stepped into the door.
squeak-
A dull pushing and pulling sound was heard.
Ye Bai looked back and saw the heavy wooden door slowly closing.
The dragon and phoenix on the door are lifelike, but they exude a suffocating coldness.
"Why are there dragons and phoenixes on this door? Could there be a chinchilla sleeping on the door?"
Ye Bai muttered something and walked inside with a knife in hand.
Soon, he passed through a narrow passage and finally saw the scenery behind the door.
What comes into view is an extremely vast square.
The ground is paved with white jade slabs. In the distance there is a majestic city towering up, and a few brilliant lights can be vaguely seen.
The sky is filled with bright stars, as if you can pick them with your hands.
As far as Ye Bai could see, there was nothing else except the endless square and city walls.
In the center of the square stands a giant square jade plate that is over a hundred feet high and about a hundred feet wide.
The jade plate was covered with dense cracks, and scarlet sticky liquid flowed from the edges of the cracks.
Ye Bai stood beside the jade plate, staring at the strange pool of blood.
Suddenly, his ankle tightened and he looked down.
A piece of dry bone emerged from the soil and tightly grasped the sole of his shoe.
The withered and turbid pupils were fixed on Ye Bai, like a hungry wolf staring at its prey.
Ye Bai drew his knife suddenly, and the blade cut through the skin of the dry bones, splashing a string of scarlet liquid.
Tick.
Tick.
The bright red liquid fell into the pool of blood on the ground.
The pool of blood suddenly surged and quickly condensed into a human shape.
The skeleton came back to life.
Ye Bai narrowed his eyes and his gaze suddenly turned cold.
The skeleton's features were like burnt tree stumps, full of pits and holes.
Its muscles have atrophied and its skin is loose, just like an old man in his twilight years.
But its eyes were filled with bloodlust, violence, madness, and deep greed.
It licked its blood-stained tongue, made a hoarse sound in its throat, and slowly approached Ye Bai like a wild beast.
"You want to eat me?"
Ye Bai sneered, holding the dagger in his hand, and stabbed it hard at the bone head.
Ku Gu was slow to react and was stabbed by Ye Bai.
"Ouch--" The dry bones let out a shrill scream, and their bodies suddenly swelled up and exploded like an inflatable doll, spraying blood foam out.
"Oh, this thing is quite fragile."
Ye Bai curled his lips and pulled out the dagger from his waist.
Click.
Suddenly there was a crisp sound.
He looked down and saw that the dagger was jammed.
The tip of the dagger broke.
Ye Bai frowned, threw the dagger aside, and picked up a new dagger.
Although the new dagger was just as sharp and tough, it was still inferior to the previous one.
"As expected of a tomb, even the weapons are different from those in the outside world."
Ye Bai muttered to himself, put the new dagger on his waist, and continued to walk inside.
There is a puppet guard every ten or so steps on both sides of the corridor, and its strength is strong enough to kill a second-level realm cultivator.
With his nimble body, Ye Bai dodged with ease and quickly reached the end.
There are nine bronze oil lamps placed here.
The wick of the oil lamp burned with a blue flame.
Ye Bai picked up one of the lamps and put it to his nose to sniff it.
"It smells so familiar..."
He muttered to himself, then suddenly realized, "Isn't this the same tobacco scent I bought at the cinema?"
Ye Bai smelled the nine oil lamps one by one.
"Yes, that's the scent."
He has a good memory and will never admit a mistake.
Ye Bai squatted down and looked at the bronze oil lamp under his feet.
The flame on the wick flickered, flickering.
"Strange, there's clearly no gunpowder..."
He frowned in thought, his eyes sweeping over the bases of the nine oil lamps.
The base of the bronze oil lamp is engraved with dragon and phoenix totems and is divided into four layers.
Each layer is painted with patterns of intersecting dragons and tigers, and they do not infringe on each other.
