Eternal Tranquility

The Imperial Palace of Zhao State occupies a very large area, with a radius of hundreds of miles, almost the same as a city. General's Tomb is just the name given to this place by foreign monks.

Needless to say, there is not much to say about the scenery in the palace. Deep in the palace, there is a mountain peak that is neither high nor short. It was once the seat of the Zhao family who cultivated immortals.

When Liu Qinghuan and his party entered the second floor of the palace, they encountered scattered ghost soldiers.

What is unexpected is that this place is very different from the misty plains outside. There are no groups of troops. Most of them are single or two ghosts. At most, they are only in groups of three or five, aimlessly walking around the palace. Wandering around inside. Their strength has improved a lot, and there are many ghosts who are equivalent to the foundation building stage.

However, Liu Qinghuan and the others are quite powerful. Not to mention Yun Liu and the others, Xu Su is a very well-hidden person, and he is not an ordinary person either.

Therefore, the journey was quite easy. The four of us worked together and did not encounter any danger.

After beating another ghost soldier until black energy spurted out, leaving only scattered armor, Yun Zheng said suspiciously: "This is very different from what we thought before..."

"Perhaps those ghost armies are all on the misty plain outside?" Xu Su guessed.

I thought I would encounter a denser army of ghosts inside, but after I entered, I realized I was completely wrong.

Their destination was the Yongshou Pavilion in the northeast corner of the palace. They planned to see the teleportation circle first, and then go to the hill of the Zhao family.

They were beating and walking along the way. Although the roads in the palace were twists and turns, they could not follow the palace walls and go around them, but directly crossed them.

It's just that the closer you get to the northeast corner, the more ghost soldiers are wandering around, and they are getting stronger. They had to choose to act cautiously and avoid as much as possible.

Two hours later.

Liu Qinghuan leaned against the closed door of the palace, her breath condensed to the last bit, and her consciousness focused on the outside.

At this time, several people were hiding in a palace, waiting for a large group of ghosts wandering outside to go away.

Just a quarter of an hour ago, this group of ghosts suddenly emerged from nowhere. There were dozens of them, and most of them had the equivalent of a foundation-building monk.

If they hadn't seen the opportunity quickly and went directly into a nearby palace to collect their breaths, they might have collided head-on. There are so many of them that if you fall into them, you may be in danger of losing your life.

Jingjue held up the wooden sign and said, "Weren't we breaking into the lair of these ghosts?"

"Young monk, just be content." Yun Zheng whispered: "These soldiers without commanding sergeants are like a ball of loose sand. They are already much easier to deal with."

After waiting for a while, the ghosts outside finally dispersed in all directions, with only a few still spinning around.

Xu Su wiped the sweat from his head and sat down on the ground: "Good guy! The inside of the General's Tomb is indeed much more dangerous than the outside."

"Hush!" Liu Qinghuan's face suddenly turned ugly: "Another team is coming!"

The nerves that had just been relaxed were tense again!

Liu Qinghuan said anxiously: "Yunzheng, can you set up a concealment array as quickly as possible? There are a lot of people coming this time!"

Hearing this, Yun Zheng took out a handful of formation flags with a flip of his hand, and flew them everywhere like beans. Within a few breaths, a formation was set up in the corner of the palace where they were hiding.

Several people quickly entered the formation, Yun Zheng fired a magic spell, all the formation flags lit up slightly, and the hall immediately became empty.

The sound of uniform footsteps sounded from outside the hall from far to near.

The four people in the formation looked at each other, and Yun Zheng said: "I thought there was no army in this palace, but I didn't expect there was one hidden here."

He turned around and saw Liu Qinghuan's face dripping with sweat, and asked strangely: "You don't have to be so nervous, right?"

Liu Qinghuan waved his hand quickly, only to hear a loud bang, and the palace door was thrown against the wall!

A ghost who was taller than the other soldiers appeared at the door. He was holding a Yanyue long knife. The knife was bright and the blade was shining with blood-colored black energy. His armor was shining brightly, and there was a slightly damaged red tassel on the helmet on his head. His eyes are as deep as prison, and his aura is powerful and domineering!

The tall ghost's gaze slowly swept across the hall, reaching the location of the hidden magic circle inch by inch, and then stopped, staring intently.

The few people hiding in the magic circle did not dare to express their anger and all remained silent.

Liu Qinghuan winked at the other three people and held the Po Gang Golden Lotus tightly in his hand.

Although there is a large group of ghost troops outside, if they are really discovered, they will have no choice but to take action.

Fortunately, after staring for a few seconds, the other party looked away and glanced at other corners.

At this time, a whimpering sound suddenly sounded.

The ghost turned around and left, disappearing at the door in an instant. He could only hear the footsteps outside also speeding up.

It wasn't until all the footsteps disappeared that the few of them gasped for air.

"Scared me to death." Jingjue shook the wooden sign repeatedly to express his emotions.

"Isn't that guy a military general?" Xu Su said.

"Unlikely." Yun Zheng shook his head: "Although it looks scary, he has not reached the fake elixir level. Where do you think this army is going?"

Xu Su rolled his eyes: "Looking at their direction, it should be the mountain on the other side. Hey, Brother Liu, why don't you say anything?"

The other three people all looked at Liu Qinghuan, and Liu Qinghuan said: "I just noticed that these ghosts seem to be coming from one direction. I suspect that that side may really be their lair or military camp."

"There will be military camps in the palace?"

Liu Qinghuan took out the ghost torture stick: "I have tortured a ghost with this thing before, and learned some things from that time. It is said that the Zhao family selected soldiers in the army to practice a quick and heaven-defying technique. Then it led to a crusade from the Immortal Cultivation World, and finally the siege of the Zhao Kingdom Palace, so it was very possible to build a military camp here. "

Yunzheng and Xu Su thought separately, while Jingjue nodded decently.

"Why are you thinking so much? Just go and see and you will know." Yun Zheng finally said: "Hey, maybe I can still find that skill. I want to see what kind of skill it is. Let mortals without spiritual roots be able to practice!”

The four of them discussed it for a while and decided to go there for a visit.

However, walking like this is dangerous. There are many ghosts along the way, and the fighting is endless, so a few people put on invisibility charms.

There was so much resentment and death in this place that Liu Qinghuan did not let the little horned beast come out.

They clung to the eaves, dodged and climbed over walls and courtyards. When encountering many ghosts, they would hide in a nearby palace and wait for them to pass before leaving.

Soon, they discovered something strange in front of them.

Under the bleak skylight, occasionally wisps of black air flashed quickly and fell into somewhere ahead.

"Huh? What is that?" Yunzheng asked via voice transmission.

Liu Qinghuan didn't know either. While he was wondering, he heard Jingjue say: "That's the 'dead' ghost."

Liu Qinghuan then remembered that every time they killed a ghost, the other party would spit out a stream of black air and disperse in the air.

Several people quickened their pace and walked around a rockery three to four feet high. When they saw the dark and gloomy pool in front of them, they were all stunned!
