Chapter 520: Sneaking into the Sun and Moon Palace, the Mysterious Realm
A few hours before the meeting, Xu Xingyu and Gu Yuena quietly arrived above the Mingdu Palace.
The two used the power of their spiritual consciousness to hide their bodies above the imperial palace, overlooking this magnificent building that symbolized the highest power of the Sun-Moon Empire.
The Mingdu Palace is majestic, magnificent, and has a unique architectural style.
Towering city walls surround the huge palace complex, with the main hall standing in the center and surrounded by carefully arranged gardens and flower beds.
The roof of the palace was covered with golden glazed tiles, which still sparkled even under the faint moonlight.
In front of the tall city gate, there are two rows of guards in neat uniform, looking majestic and solemn.
The palace was surrounded by a high-tech soul-guided defense system. Hidden soul-guided turrets, sensitive detection devices, and multi-level energy shields formed an impeccable line of defense.
Together with the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Corps stationed in the Imperial Palace, this place can be said to be the best protected place in the entire Sun-Moon Empire.
Anyone who attempts to enter the palace without permission will either be immediately discovered and intercepted by these protective systems, or captured by the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Corps.
Xu Xingyu looked at the palace in front of him with a hint of appreciation, and commented: "This defense system is quite good, far superior to the defense of the palaces of the other three countries."
"Looking at these protection systems, I can't help but want to update the protection of our Qiling Tower headquarters."
Gu Yuena smiled lightly, with a hint of confidence in her voice: "But in front of the divine consciousness, it is still useless."
In response, Xu Xingyu smiled helplessly: "There is no other way. There are very few items that can block divine consciousness in places like Douluo Continent where the spiritual energy is weak."
"What's more, there is no one else in the entire Douluo Continent who can cultivate spiritual power at the level of divine consciousness, except you and me, right? Di Tian may be able to do it, but he has not reached that level yet."
Gu Yuena responded, "In fact, Di Tian reached the level of divine consciousness a long time ago, but he has been suppressing it in order not to attract too much attention from the divine world. Of course, his current mental power is still relatively weak compared to yours."
"Oh, so there is such a thing?"
After chatting for a while, the two began the action they came here for.
The spiritual consciousness belonging to both of them unfolded at the same time to completely conceal their auras, easily avoiding all protective systems and quietly sneaking into the palace.
After entering the palace, they patrolled everywhere carefully.
They carefully explored every palace, every courtyard, and even the most hidden corners.
However, even though they used their spiritual sense to analyze every corner of the palace, they still did not find anything suspicious.
Just when they were a little disappointed, Xu Xingyu's communicator vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was a message from Wang Dong'er.
The message read: "Senior Brother He Caitou provided clues about a secret realm hidden deep in the palace. This secret realm seems to be the source of the emerald crystal that you, Xingyu, obtained earlier. The specific location is provided in the attachment."
Xu Xingyu took a look at the attached map and couldn't help but feel a little surprised, because according to the map, the location of this secret realm was underground in the imperial palace.
Although he and Gu Yuena had not yet personally visited the underground, previous divine sense detection had not revealed anything unusual about this place.
Gu Yuena, who was standing by, also felt a little strange when she saw this. She turned to Xu Xingyu and asked, "What should we do? Should we trust him?"
After thinking for a while, Xu Xingyu said, "Trust He Caitou first. Without the help of our Qi Ling Pagoda, he will not be able to take revenge on the current Sun and Moon Royal Family."
"And even if he might have other intentions, the seeds of the Sun God Pre-Examination that I gave him are enough for me to take his life at any time."
"Then it's up to you."
According to the attached map, Xu Xingyu and Gu Yuena carefully passed through layers of guards and protection systems, and finally came to the entrance of a secret underground passage.
They entered the passage and walked down the narrow and deep stone steps. The walls of the passage emitted a faint fluorescence, reflecting an emerald green.
The further down they go, the more they can sense a strange energy fluctuation in the air.
When they finally arrived at the location indicated by the map, a spacious underground hall appeared before them.
In the center of the hall stood an emerald altar, surrounded by a complex and ancient formation, which looked unmatched by any current soul guide formation.
The altar is inlaid with countless crystal clear emerald gems, emitting such a brilliant light.
"This place..." Gu Yuena frowned, feeling the distortion and instability of the surrounding space, "The space here seems to be distorted by some force."
Xu Xingyu walked into the altar and suddenly felt the dragon god blood in her body begin to beat uncontrollably.
He could feel a strong resonance, as if the altar was responding to his blood.
The emerald gem on the altar lit up and emitted a dazzling light.
"It seems that the altar is responding to my bloodline." Xu Xingyu said in a low voice.
“But isn’t this a place that only holders of the Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon spirit can enter?” Gu Yuena said with doubt in her heart, “The Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon and the Dragon God are mortal enemies. How could a place related to it welcome you, the holder of the Dragon God bloodline?”
"Who knows?"
At this moment, the emerald light on the altar became stronger and stronger, and finally formed a dazzling beam of light, instantly enveloping Xu Xingyu and Gu Yuena.
Before the two of them could react, they were sucked in by the powerful force of space.
At the moment when the two figures disappeared, an old man in the depths of the palace suddenly opened his eyes, "This space fluctuation? Is there a problem in the secret realm?"
At this time, the man in the wheelchair beside him asked in surprise: "Master Kong, are you sure? Not only is the outer perimeter of the secret realm heavily guarded, but the condition for entering the secret realm is that only those with the Purple Brilliant Heavenly Dragon Slayer Martial Spirit can enter."
The old man called Kong Lao narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the subtle changes in the air, "Yes, such strong spatial fluctuations can only appear when the secret realm is opened. It seems that the person who entered the secret realm is definitely not an ordinary person, and he can actually bypass the restrictions of the secret realm."
"Your Highness, please allow me to take some people to the teleportation altar in the secret realm to see what happened."
The man in the wheelchair was Xu Tianran. He had originally wanted to discuss something with Kong Deming, the only level 10 soul mentor in the Sun Moon Empire, that day, in order to bring him into his camp, but he didn't expect this to happen.
Xu Tianran nodded, his expression solemn, "Master Kong, please be sure to take me with you. You also know that to enter the secret realm, you must have the Purple Brilliant Heavenly Dragon Slayer Martial Spirit."
“And I am the only one in the palace who has the purest Purple Brilliant Heaven-Destroying Dragon bloodline. Without my help, you can only watch at the altar.”
"This... Your Highness, but your safety." The old man said hesitantly.
"It's okay. I believe that with Master Kong, no enemy can hide." Xu Tianran said confidently, "What's more, the secret realm is the foundation of our Sun Moon Imperial Family. Once we lose the secret realm, the loss of our Sun Moon Empire will be serious."
"I understand. I apologize for being rude."
After saying that, the old man picked up the person and the wheelchair, then turned into a stream of silver light and headed for the secret place.
