Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

By the time Zhong Lin arrived, Li Guanqi had already finished the battle.

Zhong Lin was covered in the smell of gunpowder, as the sphere the enemy had thrown was filled with it.

The explosion had delayed him for a moment, and in that short time, the battle between the two had already ended.

Meanwhile, below, outside a mysterious altar on the third level.

More than a dozen black-robed figures gathered here, and the leader suddenly took out a jade disc, his expression changing as he said in a deep voice.

"The squad leader of Team Four is dead!"

As soon as he spoke, a black-clothed man with a blue armband on his arm said in a low voice, "Qianji Umbrella is dead?"

"The disciples from the Great Xia Sword Sect who came in this time are generally weak. Who could have killed Qianji Umbrella?"

The leader, with a purple armband on his right arm, said in a deep voice, "Forget about them for now!"

"How many Great Xia Sword Sect disciples have the rest of your two squads killed?"

The blue armband replied softly, "Five people."

The black-clothed man with the yellow armband said in a deep voice, "We only have three here. There are a few late-stage Foundation Establishment guys who came in from the Great Xia Sword Sect this time, and they are quite difficult to deal with."

Finally, the leader said in a deep voice, "Fifty people came in. My team killed four, leaving thirty-eight."

"Forget about the rest for now. Before they find this place, let's go down to the last level and find the Thousand Machine Formation Plate!"

On the top level, Li Guanqi also noticed something different, after stripping off the opponent's clothes.

On the opponent's right arm was tied a white silk ribbon, like an armband, but there were no patterns or anything like that on it.

Moreover, the opponent's face looked like that of a young man in his late twenties, not at all like a sect disciple.

His face had several scars, making him look more like a rogue cultivator with no sect affiliation.

Looking at the gap in his magic weapon sword, Li Guanqi frowned slightly.

He picked up the white umbrella that had fallen to the ground and found that the sword blades shot out from the white umbrella could be reinserted into the umbrella.

It was just a pity about the thin sword of the umbrella handle.

However, this white umbrella was pure white, and felt like porcelain to the touch. The materials used to make it were already very rare.

Moreover, the white umbrella itself was already comparable to a magic weapon. Li Guanqi put it away, and after going out, he could exchange it for some spirit stones at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

At this time, Zhong Lin said from the side, "Who are these people anyway!"

Li Guanqi pondered for a long time and said softly, "I don't know. They look like rogue cultivators, but their strength cannot be ignored."

The person he had just killed had just reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and his realm was still a little unstable.

However, the white umbrella used by the opponent had brought him a lot of trouble.

"We don't know what these people's purpose is yet, but it's clear that they want to kill all the disciples in our sect."

Li Guanqi kicked the opponent's body down the stairs. The body fell through the dozen or so floors of open space, but was hit by a flame on the next floor.

It burst into flames and finally fell to the bottom floor, making a dull sound.

This scene made Li Guanqi frown slightly, and he murmured in his heart, "Does each floor trigger a different mechanism?"

In fact, it was as he expected, each floor would trigger a different type of mechanism.

Li Guanqi led Zhong Lin to search for clues on the thirteenth floor.

This place was like a maze, and many buildings could not be triggered without corresponding mechanisms.

However, just as Li Guanqi passed a pavilion, the 'Earth' character copper plate in his storage ring reacted!

Li Guanqi stopped Zhong Lin, who was still walking forward, and came to the front of the pavilion.

Li Guanqi suddenly had a feeling that the owner of this pavilion and the owner of the mansion outside the city should be the same person!

He took out the copper plate and slowly inserted it into the groove next to the pavilion door.

Rumble!!

A flash of light flashed in Li Guanqi's eyes, unexpectedly it could really be opened!

The two flashed inside and found that someone had lived here before, but it was already thousands of years ago.

Unable to find anything of great value, Li Guanqi suddenly thought of something and said.

"Look for any secret rooms or mechanisms in this room."

Zhong Lin's eyes lit up, and he began to search through the bookshelves and other things in the room, as well as the ornaments on the table.

Li Guanqi observed the surroundings and then got up and came to the master's bedroom in the pavilion.

Looking at the slightly simple ornaments inside, Li Guanqi went straight to the bed.

Opening the bed board, he found a small groove!

Click! Click!!

The sound of mechanical rotation came, and a crack appeared on the originally smooth wood under the bed board.

Immediately afterwards, a faint array of light appeared in front of Li Guanqi.

Before he could call out to Zhong Lin, he was directly pulled into the teleportation array by a powerful suction force!

Buzz!!

The soft sound attracted Zhong Lin's attention, but when he came upstairs, he only saw an empty bed board.

Zhong Lin's expression changed slightly, but he didn't know what to do.

Looking at the closed door, Zhong Lin sighed softly and said, "This is good, if I can't get out, I can't get out."

"Otherwise, with my current injuries, being with him would be a burden..."

"I just don't know how the others are doing."

At this time, none of the Great Xia Sword Sect disciples were in this underground city.

Everyone was divided into several small groups wandering on the surface of Dikun City.

The previous collapse was not the entire Dikun City, and it was unknown whether Li Guanqi and Zhong Lin were lucky or unlucky.

Buzz!!

The feeling of floating under Li Guanqi's feet disappeared, and he stepped on the ground, feeling slightly stable in his heart.

However, immediately afterwards, Li Guanqi felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, rushing straight to the top of his head!!

In front of him was a huge altar a hundred feet in radius, with two tall, silver-white puppets on the left and right!

The puppets had countless complex black and gold patterns on their bodies, shining with a faint light.

And in the middle of the two puppets, a hundred feet away directly in front of Li Guanqi, was inserted a long sword that was entirely dark green.

Behind the long sword was a dark black door, with a fluorescent light next to it that read 'Thirteen!'

The sword spirit, who had been silent all along, spoke softly at this time.

"Be careful, these are two puppet soldiers!"

Li Guanqi frowned and transmitted his voice, "Puppet soldiers?"

The sword spirit said softly, "That's right, although they are two of the lowest-level silver-armored soldiers, they were at least created by the Mo family."

"Comparable to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, if you can subdue these two soldiers, it would be a considerable gain."

A gleam flashed in Li Guanqi's eyes, and he rubbed his hands excitedly.

However, the sword spirit chuckled and said, "However... the ultimate reward for the trial of these soldiers is that sword!"

"Why?"

"Because that is a soul weapon!"
