Novel Bin Chapter 685: Bronze Mirror
Along the way, they rushed through the gorgeous and huge Epang Palace.
The light coming from those rooms attracted their attention. However, no one pushed open the doors and only chased after the aura.
However, the Blood King seemed to have sensed that someone was chasing after him.
The further they went, the thinner his aura became. From a corner, a mercury river appeared ahead.
The mercury river glistened and lay in front of everyone.
They could clearly see a series of footprints stepping into the river and out from the other side.
The footprints left behind by the silver metal liquid faded and quickly disappeared.
As the footprints disappeared, the Blood King’s aura also disappeared.
In this huge palace, they lost track of the Blood King.
After the group crossed the mercury river, they could only stare at the series of footprints and stop.
In front of them was a row of 18 passageways.
Jiang Li snapped his fingers forcefully. As his voice spread and shook, he could sense that there were even more complicated forks behind these 18 passageways.
There seemed to be the smell of a maze. The probability of finding the right path was indeed too low.
“Everyone, try using the clone technique!”
Someone suggested. Everyone used their methods and transformed into a large number of long-range clones, letting them continuously surge into the passageway ahead.
As long as there were enough, they could definitely walk through all the forks.
Jiang Li had once used this method to break through the underground maze.
Apart from consuming more spiritual qi, there were no other flaws.
However, this method clearly did not work here.
Every time these clones ran for a distance or turned a few corners, they would inexplicably lose contact with the caster.
The clone method that he had high hopes for was eliminated as soon as it was tried.
He tried several other methods in a row, but they were all useless. It seemed that the creator of this palace had already been guarding against these methods from the beginning.
At this point, they had no choice but to split up and search.
However, each of them tied a cloud thread to their bodies. As long as they injected spiritual qi, the cloud thread would continuously grow and float in the air without dissipating.
With the help of this cloud thread, they could transmit some simple information to each other.
There were hundreds of methods. This was the only method that was helpful to them.
As long as they discovered anything wrong, they would immediately retreat and inform the others.
Although it was easy to be broken by splitting up people, they were currently in a hurry with the Blood King. If they were late, they would be completely wiped out.
He could only do this.
Of course, most of the cultivators present had long wanted to explore separately.
This was because after splitting up, the probability of encountering the Blood King was less than 1%.
However, they could freely explore and plunder this Epang Palace, plunder the vast resources inside, and search for the secret treasures inside. Why not?
Just in the room just now, the accessories on the concubines and puppets were all artifacts.
Even the dead could retain their looks like living people.
With the current technology, the effect would only be even more shocking.
How many good things could be plundered from the other rooms in the 300 miles of the Epang Palace?
However, Jiang Li actually felt that the efficiency of this kind of scattered search might not be as good as him being blindfolded and randomly choosing a direction to wander in.
With his luck, nothing bad would happen.
Perhaps he could even find the national treasure before the Blood King.
However, after thinking about it, he did not say anything in the end.
After all, this matter was too important.
It was impossible to only place everything on illusory luck.
In addition, the Blood King should also have the providence of the Son of Heaven.
His luck might not be effective. It was better to spread the net and search.
They quickly set up a scattered search area.
Everyone tied the clouds and dispersed in a few waves.
As the number of forks increased, everyone began to disperse. Soon, many people were alone.
They had come to search for treasures.
Without anyone watching, they were immediately attracted by the surrounding treasures.
They did not argue carefully and only pushed open the door to take away the treasures.
As he put away the treasures and rushed, his speed inevitably slowed down. He did not know if he could catch up to the Blood King at this speed.
On the other side, Jiang Li was already alone.
Because the corpse of the Polar Mountain King had been dead for too long, the parallel mind could not obtain many memories.
Therefore, he did not know how to find the location of the dragon vein and national treasure in the Epang Palace.
Not to mention that even the Dragon Python of the Polar Mountain King had been sold to the three divine pillars.
On the one hand, it was because he could also know immediately through the parallel mind what they had discovered.
Letting the clone of the Polar Mountain King disperse was beneficial to him.
On the other hand, they had given too much.
They directly offered the price of two Three Treasures Mystic Flowers as compensation for the Dragon Python.
Coupled with the previous one, Jiang Li already owned three mystic flowers.
This mystic flower was a top-notch material at the Earth Immortal realm. It could greatly assist in condensing the three flowers above his head.
At that time, as long as he broke through to the Earth Immortal realm, he could directly use these three mystic flowers.
Every mystic flower could help condense one of the three aspects of essence, qi, and spirit.
At that time, as long as he made the status permanent, why would he worry about the Three Flowers Gathering realm?
Compared to his usual cultivation speed, this day would not take long.
Jiang Li walked forward casually according to his senses.
Of course, he did not let go of what he should have taken along the way.
After putting away another puppet in the room, he asked the female ghost beside him.
“Shuman, why do you think the previous Qin Emperors built such a huge palace?”
“It’s said that this Epang Palace was also a forbidden area back then. It’s usually not open. Only on the day of the ancestral worship will the current Qin Emperor enter.”
“Outsiders are not allowed to enter at all. In that case, what’s the point of such a huge palace?”
“There’s also such dense spiritual qi. It’s a waste not to use it.”
The spiritual qi in the palace was indeed so dense that it was almost sticky.
This was because there was a dragon vein here. It was normal for the concentration of spiritual qi to be high.
“Shuman doesn’t know either. However, Young Master, look. There’s an extremely profound illusion technique attached to this bronze mirror.”
After Jiang Li finished harvesting a room of puppet war beasts, he discovered that his Vice City Lord was standing in front of a bronze mirror in a daze.
Qin Shuman, the female ghost, discovered some clues.
