Chapter 2123 - Chapter 2123: Whose Palace?
Chapter 2123: Whose Palace?
The strong smell of blood filled her nose, almost nauseating.
The rapidly spreading blood color stirred up Tuan Zi’s last nerve called rationality.
“Zi Chen!” She wanted to support Zi Chen, but she only felt a sticky hand.
Looking down, she saw that his left shoulder had been pierced and was badly mangled. Because he was wearing black, the blood had seeped into his clothes and soaked a large area.
Tuan Zi’s hands trembled slightly.
“You don’t know your limits!” The voice came from behind with undisguised contempt and disdain. “Do you think you’re so great just because you have the wing bones of a great phoenix dragon?”
Even Tuan Zi, who had the purest bloodline, couldn’t fight back. What could a legendary three-eyed eagle do?!
Zi Chen gritted his teeth and quickly glanced over.
After following Tuan Zi down, he lost consciousness. When he woke up again, he was already trapped in an extremely dark cage.
His wrist was also locked by two chains, but he quickly sensed that Tuan Zi seemed to be only a wall away from him. Without hesitation, he broke free from the chains and ran over, even paying a painful price for it.
At this moment, there was indeed something wrong with that eye!
Zi Chen took a deep breath and carried Tuan Zi with his right hand. Only then did he see the wound on Tuan Zit s arm.
He knitted his brows. Tuan Zi’s aura… is very unusual! This appearance… is very similar to when she wanted to open her meridians previously!
At the thought of this, Zi Chen was shocked. Tuan Zi opened her fifth meridian not long ago. Logically speaking, it is impossible for her to continue opening her meridian in such a short time!
Looking at the aura surging around her as if she would riot at any moment, he felt even more uneasy. If Tuan Zi forcefully opens her meridian now, it will probably be harmful and useless! We have to leave this place as soon as possible.
At the thought of this, Zi Chen suddenly grabbed the chain that nailed him to the ground. Because he used too much strength, his knuckles were faintly blue.
Seeing this, Tuan Zi’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately pressed his hand down. “Zi Chen! No!”
Swoosh!
Zi Chen pulled the chain out forcefully!
Bright-red flesh splattered everywhere!
The next moment, he hugged Tuan Zi tightly and got up to escape!
Whir!
A blood-colored Xuan formation suddenly appeared above the two of them! A terrifying pressure descended and immediately trapped them on the spot, unable to break free!
Shoo!
Zi Chen suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and kneeled on the ground.
He supported himself with one hand on the ground and carefully protected Tuan Zi in his arms with the other.
Red-gold flames suddenly burned in Tuan Zi’s eyes! She looked at the blood-colored Xuan formation above her head and gradually clenched her fists.
She had always wanted to be Zi Chen’s big sister in the past, but she didn’t expect that at such a moment, he would actually protect her…
The blood in Tuan Zi’s body also surged quickly, as if it was going to rush out the next moment!
She retracted her gaze and looked at the eye. “You can’t touch my people!”
A totem flashed between her eyebrows!
On the other side, Chu Liuyue had already rushed into the hall as quickly as possible.
The moment she stepped into the hall, an extremely bright and dazzling light suddenly fell from above!
The intense light hurt her eyes, and she subconsciously turned her face to the side. After a moment, she looked up again and forward.
When she saw the scene in the hall clearly, she was stunned.
It was an extremely tall circular palace with a dome on it. The light shone down from there. It was surrounded by black and white jade walls, with ancient and mysterious relief sculptures.
On this jade wall, there were holes of various sizes.
There was a ball of light floating quietly in each hole. They were of different colors and were very beautiful.
The divine pressure was faint, and there was a vast and ancient aura everywhere as if no one had stepped foot in thousands of years.
Chu Liuyue stood at the door and slowly swept her gaze across the balls of light.
That eye was nowhere to be seen.
She walked into the hall.
The people behind also rushed in.
Chu Liuyue looked around and searched again. That cold aura seemed to have never appeared, but she was sure that she hadn’t seen wrongly just now!
That eye was indeed hidden here!
“A Yuan instrument!” A surprised voice suddenly sounded.
This voice immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Chu Liuyue also looked over.
Nie Hongjie had followed them in at some point. He was standing in front of the jade wall with a longbow in his hand.
In the hole beside him, the flickering ball of light had already disappeared. Clearly, this bow was what he had taken out of it just now.
He was so excited that the wrinkles on his face seemed to relax a lot.
Just now, he only felt that the aura of the ball of light was quite unusual. Curious, he planned to try and see if he could take it out.
In the end, as soon as his fingers touched the ball of light, the thing fell into his hands. The entire process was extremely smooth!
What surprised him even more was that this was actually a Yuan instrument!
He had really picked up a treasure!
When everyone saw this, they looked at each other with unconcealed shock in their eyes.
What kind of place is this to be able to casually obtain a Yuan instrument!?
Nie Ruyun reacted quickly. Seeing this, she immediately had an idea.
She also came to the jade wall and casually chose a ball of light to take out the thing inside.
It was a small green jade bottle.
Seeing that it wasn’t a Yuan instrument, Nie Ruyun was a little disappointed. She casually pulled out the stopper of the jade bottle.
“What is this…”
A rich medicinal fragrance spread! Nie Hongjie was shocked. “Dragon Return Pill!?”
This was a Physician-level pill!
He was a Great Physician himself, so he naturally knew how precious this Dragon Return Pill was!
When Nie Ruyun heard this, her previous regret and disappointment were swept away. She asked excitedly, “Father, is this really a Dragon Return Pill?!”
Nie Hongjie walked over and took a closer look. He laughed. “Of course, it’s real! When have I ever lied to you!?Ruyun, you’re really impressive. You casually took one and actually obtained a pill of this level!”
Nie Ruyun was very proud and carefully put away the bottle of Dragon Return Pill. “Father is still the best!”
After all, what he had was a genuine Yuan instrument! More importantly, if not for him, they wouldn’t have thought that such treasures were hidden in these balls of light!
Seeing that the father-daughter duo had easily pocketed the two rare treasures, everyone present immediately became restless.
Many people walked to the jade wall one after another and took out the ball of light from the cave.
As expected, there were Yuan instruments, pills, magic arts, and extremely high-level Xuan formation diagrams. All kinds of treasures appeared endlessly.
Moreover, what was even more shocking was that the treasures that Nie
Hongjie and his daughter had obtained earlier were actually very ordinary here.
Seeing that more and more people were getting treasures, Chu Liuyue gradually frowned.. What… is this place?
