Choosing one of the two seems simple, but with Long Jiu, Yang Mu and others being well-informed, it is difficult to make a decision for a while. Once they make a wrong choice and lead their fellow disciples to the road of no return, how can they have the face to meet their ancestors?

Zong?

Yang Mu pondered: "Should we first select two groups of people to explore the path separately? We will make a decision after the pathfinders send back the news."

Long Jiu objected: "This is a monster's lair, and there may be another secret passage. It's too dangerous for us to stay here, so it's better to leave as soon as possible."

Zhang Zijian said: "I agree with Brother Long's opinion. What if we stay where we are and are surrounded by an army of poisonous insects?"

With so many people hanging on their backs, most people tended to leave immediately.

It's a matter of life and death, and everyone has to make a choice.

Soon, everyone freely formed two expedition teams and entered the left and right exits separately. Coincidentally, almost all Xuanyuan disciples chose the right exit, and Fu Jingtao was no exception.

Fu Jingtao knew that Zhao Guangyi had not cracked the Jiangshan Sheji Map, so his purpose in organizing this expedition was not simple. And the relationship between Zhao Guangyi and Jiang Lie was extraordinary. They would have communicated with each other in advance to plan and deal with powerful forces from all walks of life.

Enemy. If Jiang Lie knew the truth about the underground palace, he would definitely tell Jiang Haoyuan, Du Shanyue and other children of the aristocratic family secretly, lest they die in vain. Therefore, he kept a close eye on the movements of Jiang Haoyuan and others, so that he would not be afraid of taking the wrong path.

The expedition team on the right was led by Long Jiu to clear the way. After Yang Mu dropped at the end, the group continued to explore deeper.

The walkway stretched straight, and the wind blowing in the face was as warm as spring, with the smell of sulfur. The rushing sound of the water gradually became clearer, and after turning a corner, I saw a red light like blood in the distance, and the space became wider. On the right hand side of the walkway

There is an additional parallel underground river.

The surface of the underground river is narrow and the water vapor is so dense that it is difficult to see what creatures are on the bottom of the river. There are moss and some strange fluorescent plants growing on the river bank. Dots of five-color fluorescence interweave into two beautiful ribbons, dispelling the confusion in the darkness.

fear.

Everyone suddenly saw this dream-like scenery and couldn't help but marvel. After walking forward for a while, the red blood light in their field of vision became brighter and brighter, and the river water was dyed, as if a river of blood was flowing. Everyone looked at it intently,

It was discovered that this strange red light originated from the bottom of the river. The light source was as large as a millstone and as small as a fist. It scattered or gathered with no regular distribution.

"Oh my God, this is a glowing ruby!" The team members exclaimed repeatedly.

With Yang Mu and Long Jiu's realm, their hearts were pounding and they almost couldn't move. Such a huge, luminous ruby ​​was unheard of, and could not be found even in the Song Dynasty Palace. But such a rare treasure,

There are thousands of them scattered on the underground river bed!

A brave young man plunged into the bottom of the river with an iron gun. When he saw that the water was only three feet deep, his brain became hot and he jumped into the underground river. He picked up an oval gem the size of a fist and danced and laughed: "Brothers,

We are going to make a fortune!"

Unexpectedly, after the gem left the water, the red light quickly converged, dimmed and disappeared, turning into a gray pebble.

Everyone was stunned and couldn't believe what they were seeing.

The young man watched the gems turn into ordinary stones. He was shocked and hurt, and screamed: "Is this a ghost attack? Why is it so evil?!"

Fu Jingtao squatted down, put his hand to feel the temperature of the river water, and couldn't help but said: "This is a special kind of ore, which will automatically glow in the higher-temperature river water. Once it lacks moisture, it will lose its luster. Strictly speaking

In other words, it’s not a ruby.”

The young man screamed: "You are talking nonsense, I don't believe it!" He threw away the stone in his hand, held his breath and picked up a large boulder weighing dozens of kilograms. It was crystal clear, like holding a red ball in his arms.

The full moon. He raised his head proudly and laughed wildly: "Look, what is this if it's not a gem? I want to take it back as a family heirloom!" As he spoke, the red light from the surface of the big stone gradually dimmed, and finally

Disappear.

The dream of getting rich suddenly ignites and is extinguished.

The young man's eyes were dull, and he loosened his hands, and the big stone fell into the river. As soon as the stone touched the river water, red light flowed on the surface - it was a treasure when you put it down, and it was a hard stone when you picked it up.

Suddenly, ripples rippled and several slender black shadows approached at high speed in the water.

"careful!"

The young man was startled, and was about to fly ashore when his legs were pulled hard at the same time. Then severe pain hit his brain, and he screamed loudly. The water was violently stirred, and silver-white snake-like creatures were twisting.

body, desperately tearing the flesh and blood of the prey. As the blood foam surged, the young man stumbled and fell, and was instantly submerged by the river water.

The accident happened so quickly that no one on the shore could rescue him in time. As the smell of blood spread, the calm on both sides of the river was broken, and many dangerous aquatic animals gathered.

Everyone didn't want to bother with anything, so they left.

The river gradually narrowed, the plants became sparse, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur. At the end of the walkway, there were five or six hot springs erupting from the ground. The spring water gathered into an irregular pool, with white marble railings and white marble railings built around the pool.

sculpture.

Across the pool, there is another flat ground, with dozens of large and small alchemy furnaces placed according to the Bagua directions. The big ones are nearly ten feet high, and the small ones are about three feet high. They have different shapes, fine workmanship, and engraved surfaces.

There are complex patterns and mysterious symbols. Due to the age, the furnace lid and furnace body are covered with cobweb dust. They stand silently like ancient warriors, waiting for the opportunity to be resurrected.

When everyone saw this spectacular group of alchemy furnaces, they knew clearly that the ultimate secret of alchemy was hidden here - it took a whole country to build such a magnificent underground palace and spent so much effort and effort to raise materials. Naturally, it could not be refining.

Ordinary elixirs must be refining the elixir of immortality!

Ever since Qin Shihuang favored Xu Fu, for thousands of years, countless people have won the favor of emperors with their secret alchemy skills. The more emperors had, the more afraid they were of birth, old age, illness and death, and the more they longed to break the shackles, gain immortality and enjoy eternal bliss on earth. So they went everywhere to seek immortality and worship.

God, he does not hesitate to take the "golden elixir".

It is not uncommon in history books to die after taking the golden elixir. However, the emperors still pursued their dreams endlessly, determined to take off their mortal bodies and live as long as heaven and earth.

A ridiculous thought came to Long Jiu's mind and he murmured: "Could it be that in order to refine the golden elixir, they actually used the Jiuzhou Cauldron as an elixir furnace?"

The Kyushu Cauldron was made by Emperor Yu from the essence of Kyushu. It is mysterious and unpredictable. It is one of the most spiritual treasures in the world. If it is used to make elixirs, it may have miraculous effects. If Long Jiu's inference is correct, doesn't it mean that the Kyushu Cauldron is right in front of him?
