Chapter 58 The Dark Palace
The water surface, which originally had nothing but floating ice, suddenly appeared a huge black shadow, and everyone's hearts were shaken and they stood up from the ice.
"Venice, then...that's really..." Hu Shengzhe was excited and speechless.
Master Mazha did not speak, but just stepped forward, walked to the edge of the ice, and stared silently ahead.
Several people took out the flashlights and turned them on and shone them forward. As the floating ice slowly approached, everyone finally saw the shadow in the darkness clearly.
It was a dark palace.
This palace is very huge. It is estimated that its length and width are at least 100 meters and its height is about 30 to 40 meters. It can be called a magnificent building.
Below the palace is a piece of ice as big as an island. Half of the palace is frozen in the ice. This huge ice cube like an island floats in the underground river water, carrying this magnificent dark palace.
Around it, there are a large number of ice cubes piled up. From a distance, they are dense and can't see the end at first sight, and they are all floating ice.
Everyone's hearts were enlightened, they had reached the end, and perhaps the legendary shore ahead.
Everyone could not hide their excitement. Following the floating ice, they slowly approached the island-like ice cubes ahead. The closer they got, the more they could feel the grandeur of this dark palace.
Finally, the ice cubes where everyone was located hit the ice cubes as big as the island facing him and stopped.
Sun Tao was the first to jump up, and the others followed closely behind. Liu Guangsheng picked up the camping lamp on the ice and followed everyone to climb the Iceland floating in the water.
"Everyone is vigilant, there may be danger here." Sun Tao picked up the assault rifle in his hand, while Qin Yang, Du Changde and others were holding submachine guns. Everyone was carrying grenade explosives on their bodies, and they were careful to protect Li Zhibao, Zhou Kesheng and others, and slowly advance.
As people get closer and closer to their destination, they are more and more afraid to take it lightly. If there is a slight mistake, they may have to pay the price of their lives.
Especially with Diao Zhikun's death, the order of death curses of death was disrupted, and everyone was at a loss. No one knew who would be the next one to die.
A few minutes later, everyone approached the dark palace carefully.
Using the light of flashlights and camping lamps, everyone carefully looked at the small palace in front of them, which was frozen in the ice.
The palace was built with unknown materials, like black jade, a ball of darkness, blending into the darkness, faintly filled with mystery and weirdness.
There are no carvings or patterns on the surface of the palace. Even Li Zhibao, who has conducted in-depth research on ancient civilizations, could not see what era or civilization the palace came from.
"The construction level of this palace is very high, and it is hard to imagine that it was written by ancient people." After careful observation, Li Zhibao expressed his own point of view.
Hu Shengzhe nodded and said, "Yes, it looks more like a modern architectural style. This is amazing. Will there be modern people who go deep into the bottom of this snow-capped mountain and build such a dark palace on this underground river?"
Wang Lei pointed to the ground and said, "Don't forget that the palace was frozen in the ice layer, and we also fell from the ice layer above. Perhaps this palace was built on the ice layer above before, but it fell because the ice layer collapsed."
Li Zhibao nodded and said, "It's possible, but it's not easy to judge now. We can only go in and see what's going on. If it's really a modern architecture, it would be even more bizarre. Who would have done it?"
While talking, everyone approached the palace gate in the middle of the dark palace. A small half of the entrance to the palace gate was frozen. Fortunately, the door was not closed, but was opened, and everyone could enter directly along the ice layer.
There was a dark ball inside the palace gate. Everyone did not dare to enter rashly, and they all stopped outside. Qin Yang and his friends shone the flashlight inside to observe.
Sun Tao still took out the air detection instrument and checked it. After confirming that the air inside would not harm the human body, Sun Tao and Qin Yang were the first to enter.
The two were very cautious. Liu Guangsheng was holding a camping lamp at the door, Qin Yang was holding a submachine gun, and Sun Tao was holding an assault rifle, his whole body was tense.
Xiao Ling and Li Zhibao and others stood at the door and watched them walk in along the frozen ice.
Entering it, Sun Tao and Qin Yang held guns, observed the surroundings with vigilance, and advanced step by step.
Liu Guangsheng followed in and carried a camping lamp.
As the light range expanded, everyone gradually saw the inside of the dark palace.
In the palace, several cylinders stand, supporting the roof of the palace. Each cylinder is carved with the patterns of ancient strange beasts. The patterns are carved very exquisitely. Unlike the masterpieces of ancient people, it seems to be confirming the conjectures of Li Zhibao and Hu Shengzhe. This dark palace may have been written by modern people.
Confirm that there is no danger in the palace, Xiao Ling, Li Zhibao, Zhou Kesheng, Yu Tingting and others began to enter one after another.
Sun Tao took out another camping lamp, and the light in the dark palace became brighter.
Everyone walked slowly into the depths of the palace along two rows of columns carved with ancient beasts.
Xiao Ling looked at the giant cylinders on both sides, carved with some ancient strange beasts or gods and demons. Of course, for the ancient ancestors, there was no obvious distinction between some strange beasts or gods and demons. Some gods and demons who were worshipped may have their true identity as some powerful strange beasts.
When everyone walked to the end of the dark palace, they all stopped, and under the illumination of two camping lamps, everyone stood quietly like petrification.
Xiao Ling, Zhou Kesheng, Li Zhibao, Yu Tingting, Hu Shengzhe, Wang Lei, Pang Yan, almost everyone instinctively opened their eyes wide and showed a look of shock.
The scene that appeared in front of me was completely beyond everyone's imagination.
At the end of this palace, a rock statue appeared.
This carved a headless giant about ten meters tall, half kneeling on the ground, holding something up with both hands.
When everyone saw this headless giant, the first thing they thought of was the Snow Mountain God Bayan Lagong. Venerable Mazha could no longer help but whisper the name.
According to local legend, the snow mountain god Bayan Lagong is the image of a headless giant.
But what shocked everyone was not the half-kneel headless statue that was suspected to be Bayan Lagon, but the object held in the statue's hands.
The headless statue holds a giant black iron ball with both hands.
The black iron ball was as big as a house, and was as dark as a big iron block, pressing on the headless statue. It was pressed against it with its arms and headless body, and held it in the air, about twenty meters away from everyone.
