The evil sacrificial spirit didn't answer me. He just asked me to be careful. This cave didn't look normal.
I had already noticed this. We were at the entrance. The cave wasn't more than five meters high. Behind us was a rock wall, and in front of us was a tunnel.
This place seemed to be sealed by some secret technique. The person who could do this wasn't an ordinary person.
I didn't want to waste any more time. I took the evil sacrificial spirit and headed toward the tunnel.
This tunnel was long and narrow. It was a little crowded when I walked side by side with the evil sacrificial spirit. There was no dust on the ground, and it was very dry. The stone walls on both sides had traces of being dug by someone.
Not only that, but I also noticed that there were some marks left by swords. I asked the evil sacrificial spirit to slow down.
I took a step forward and carefully observed the sword marks. I could feel a few wisps of Dao energy. It was clear that they weren't made by ordinary swords. They were made by magic tools.
I told the evil sacrificial spirit, reminding him to pay attention to the surroundings.
If there was a fight here, and the Dao energy on the sword marks hadn't dissipated yet, it meant that someone had been here before us. Moreover, this group of people shouldn't be underestimated.
To ensure our safety, we walked forward, one in front of the other.
Around ten minutes later, we got out of the tunnel. We didn't find anything suspicious along the way.
There was no path at the end of the tunnel. Even though I was a Heavenly Master, I couldn't see through the darkness in front of me.
The place where we were standing looked like a cliff. I cautiously craned my neck to look down, but the boundless darkness swallowed my vision completely.
This place was strange. I turned around and asked the evil sacrificial spirit, "What should we do now?"
I saw that his face had changed. He wasn't as cold as he used to be. He had become cautious.
The evil sacrificial spirit came closer and stood on the edge of the cliff. He gazed at the void in front of us as if he was thinking about something.
I didn't hurry to interrupt him. I wanted to summon Liu Ruxu. However, after calling her a few times, she didn't respond. It was strange. Was it possible that the strong light had hurt her source?
At this moment, the evil sacrificial spirit saw my doubt. He explained, "There's a barrier here. The spirits have to retreat. He can't get out."
His words shocked me. There was actually a restriction here? Why didn't I see it?
With that thought in mind, he tried to summon Tong Tong.
Unexpectedly, it was just as the evil sacrificial spirit had said. Tong Tong didn't appear by my side even after I called him a few times.
It seemed that the restrictions here were really powerful, even a Yin Soul with Tong Tong's cultivation could be suppressed.
Fortunately, the evil sacrificial spirit could take care of me. Although he was also a Yin Soul, he was different from Tong Tong and the others. The evil sacrificial spirit was now residing in a zombie's body, which was equivalent to having a physical body. Moreover, his strength was far above Tong Tong and the others, so the restrictions here were naturally useless against him.
That dragon roar just now was so vivid, and the dragon breath in this place could also be clearly sensed.
This meant that we might not be far from the Dragon's Vein. Furthermore, I had always thought that finding the Dragon's Vein would mean finding the way to LiuBo Hill. Obviously, I didn't want to return empty-handed.
After listening to me, the evil sacrificial spirit paused. He asked me to stay here while he went to check the situation.
After saying that, he leaped down the cliff. My line of sight followed his figure as he gradually disappeared into the void.
I stood at the edge of the cliff and stared at the position where the evil sacrificial spirit had disappeared. I didn't know how much time had passed, but I suddenly felt that the surrounding dragon breath had inexplicably become stronger. My body started to automatically absorb the dragon breath in the air.
Just as I was feeling puzzled, the evil sacrificial spirit's figure suddenly appeared from the bottom of the cliff. In a split second, he steadily landed next to me. His face was obviously relaxed.
Looking at his appearance, he should have a solution.
Before I could open my mouth to ask, he told me that there was a spacious area below.
The restriction here had been torn open by the people who had come earlier.
After saying that, he beckoned me to follow him down to the spacious area.
Just as my feet landed on the ground, I saw a few piles of bones not far from us. I looked up at the evil sacrificial spirit. He explained to me that these should be the people who had come earlier. However, when they broke the restriction, they suffered a backlash and lost their lives.
I was slightly shocked. From the previous situation, those who could reach this place must have the cultivation of Yang God Celestial Master. However, their lives were taken by this restriction. It was really inconceivable. I didn't think that this restriction would be so powerful.
However, after thinking about it, the huge rock on the Dragon Viewing Platform could only enter this place after it had absorbed enough Dao energy.
Most likely, they had used up most of their cultivation. Moreover, they had experienced a battle in the tunnel. There shouldn't be much Dao energy left in the Vein of the Sky.
Moreover, there wasn't any Dragon energy that could help them recover quickly. Moreover, they had forcefully broken the restriction, unexpectedly suffering a backlash and losing their lives in a hurry.
After thinking about it clearly, I didn't delay any further. I followed behind the evil sacrificial spirit towards the broken opening.
When we passed by the bones, I found that although the bodies of the people on the ground were rotten, it wasn't hard to see from their tattered clothes that they had lived for a much longer time than we had.
It seemed that someone had noticed this place a long time ago. I just didn't know if anyone had entered this place.
I told the evil sacrificial spirit about my suspicions, but he said that the probability was very small. When he came down, the opening he had made was very small. He had spent a lot of effort to tear open a person's body.
It didn't sound like he had said that. According to his personality, he wouldn't care about anything. I didn't think that he would have such a high evaluation of this restriction.
After a few steps, I arrived at the opening he had made. As I stood there, the dragon's aura became stronger. It seemed that the change in the dragon's aura that I had felt was because the evil sacrificial spirit had made the opening bigger.
The opening they had made had caused the Dragon energy to seep out. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have been able to see anything strange from the stone. It seemed that this restriction could isolate spiritual energy.
As I was about to enter the restriction, the evil sacrificial spirit went in before me. After confirming that nothing had happened, he called me in.
As soon as I steadied myself, I felt that the jade bracelet in front of my chest was crazily absorbing the surrounding dragon energy. Not only that, since I was already at the Celestial Master realm, my body could also absorb the surrounding dragon energy.
Pure Dragon energy crazily entered my body, making my veins of heaven very close to breaking through.
I steadied my mind and sat down cross-legged to stabilize the Dragon energy I had just absorbed. It wasn't a good time to break through here. If I used up the Dao energy in my body now, it would be troublesome if I encountered any danger later.
I slowly used the Dao energy from my veins of heaven to guide the Dragon energy that was continuously entering my body. After they had calmed down, I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the scene in front of me.
However, what I saw shocked me.
The place we were standing in was similar to a public square. The square was inlaid with very orderly green bricks, giving off an ancient feeling.
Apart from that, there was nothing else in the square.
While I was feeling doubtful, the evil sacrificial spirit behind me patted my shoulder, indicating for me to look up.
I followed his hand and looked up. I saw a palace-like building. The building was very grand and majestic. After taking a closer look, the entire palace was emitting a faint golden light.
What surprised me the most was that the palace was built in the sky. It gave off the feeling of a celestial palace.
Ever since I had become a Fengshui Master, I had never seen such a scene.
The construction of the palace didn't conform to common sense. Of course, the matters of the Xuan path couldn't be determined by common sense. From this point of view, everything was normal.
I turned to look at the evil sacrificial spirit. He still had a cold expression. He pointed at the palace above, indicating for me to wait there. After he said that, he leaped and in a blink of an eye, he was on the corridor in front of the palace.
Seeing that he was fine, I was impatient. After reaching the Celestial Master realm, flying for a short period of time was a common method. In a few seconds, I was on the corridor and stood by his side.
Standing on the corridor, I looked in the direction that I had come from. Although it wasn't far away, it was the same as when I was at the cliff. I couldn't see the outside clearly.
As for the corridor in front of me, it led directly to the entrance of the palace. The structure of the place was very strange. We had to be careful with every step we took.
The palace door was tightly shut. Logically speaking, every palace door should have a board to indicate the identity of the palace. However, there was nothing except for a vermilion hanging beam above the palace.
The palace door was different from what I had imagined. The palace doors that I had seen in the books were more dignified and simple. However, the palace door in front of me was very simple. It could be compared to the Tai Qing Palace in Mount Lao.
I shook my head and wanted to push the palace door open. However, no matter how much strength I used, it was useless.
I stared at the palace door in a daze. Suddenly, I thought of the rock on the Dragon Viewing Platform.
After thinking about it, I gathered the Dao energy in my body into my hands and pushed. The palace door squeaked and started to move.
However, it wasn't enough to completely open the palace door. Seeing that there was a chance, I continued to gather more Dao energy from the Veins of the Heavens and sent it to the palace door.
