Chapter 269 Blood Ice Tomb
She tried to use the teleportation talisman again, but the crystal palace seemed to be under some kind of restriction, and her talisman could not be used at all.
"Junior brother!" she shouted anxiously.
Xu Youan, who was outside, heard her shout, and the light on his fingertips paused, then he secretly retracted it.
He seemed to understand something and turned to look at the senior sister inside: "Senior sister, you go in first, I will find a way to catch up with you."
Jiang Liqian was not willing to leave Xu Youan alone outside. Although no danger had occurred so far, it did not mean that it would not happen in the future.
What if some monster suddenly appears and Junior Brother can’t handle it alone?
She is his senior sister and should protect him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Liqian began to try to use the formation to attack the water gate again, but no matter what she did, the water gate remained intact.
Xu Youan approached the water gate, put his hand on it, and stopped her: "Sister, I'm really fine. Finding the exit is the top priority now. The longer we spend here, the more danger we will be in.
"Trust me, Senior Sister, I will follow you."
Xu Youan's words made Jiang Liqian's anxious heart pause and calm down.
Indeed, the most important thing now is how to get out. Once she finds the exit, maybe she can find a way to let her junior brother in. Now it is obviously useless for her to waste time here.
Thinking of this, she nodded at Xu Youan, and before leaving, she told him to protect himself and she would come back to find him.
"Yes, I believe in you, Senior Sister." Xu Youan was obedient, with unconditional trust in his eyes.
Jiang Liqian was touched by his pure and trusting gaze. She felt that this look was so familiar, so familiar that it seemed as if she had seen it in her previous life.
She shook her head and laughed at herself.
If there was someone who trusted her like this in her previous life, how could she forget it?
Throwing away the messy thoughts in her mind, she didn't delay any longer. She held the Spirit-Suppressing Pearl in her hand and walked carefully and quickly along the long and narrow corridor.
Although it is deep underwater, the interior of the Crystal Palace is not dark. On the contrary, because the walls emit a faint blue light, the entire palace looks gorgeous and soft.
She thought about the feeling of passing through the water gate just now, and tried to pass through the wall inside again. There was no obstruction, but when she wanted to turn back, she encountered the same situation as in front of the gate.
She tried a few more times, with the same result.
In other words, you can only move forward here, you cannot look back, and you can only choose one path, with no chance to regret or make mistakes.
The Crystal Palace doesn't look complicated when viewed from the outside, but when you walk inside, you'll see walls of water stacked up in layers, like you've stepped into a maze with no way out.
When she was learning the formation, her master said that wherever there is a siege, there must be a way to break it. Where there is life, there is death, where there is yin, there is yang. If this is really a huge maze, then she just needs to find where the yang is and where the door to life is.
Fortunately, although her talent in formation was average, her master had given her a treasure when she was away from home, saying that it could help her find the escape route of the formation in the shortest time, but it could only be used once.
At the moment, she was worried about Xu Youan outside, and she didn't care about her baby anymore. She immediately took out the things her master gave her from her Qiankun bag.
A small bird carved from wood.
She placed the bird in the palm of her hand and input a little spiritual power into it. Soon the bird began to move in her palm, flapping its wings, flying around her. Then, as if sensing something, it flew straight forward and passed through layers of water walls.
Seeing this, Jiang Liqian hurriedly followed it.
The man and the bird ran in the palace for most of the day. Finally, after passing through a wall again, the bird flapped its wings, landed on her shoulder, and then automatically burned and turned into ashes.
When Jiang Liqian saw where Fei Niao brought her to, she took a step back in surprise, her back pressed tightly against the cold wall.
His originally calm expression revealed a hint of fear.
From Jiang Liqian's direction, she could just see the wall opposite emitting a faint blue light. The wall was like a blurry mirror, reflecting the entire scene in the room.
In the center of the huge palace, a square ice coffin was quietly placed among the thorns covered with ice. Layers of frost chains firmly locked the body of the ice coffin. Hundreds of cold ice swords were suspended above the ice coffin, and the tip of each sword was pointed at the ice coffin below.
And right in front of the ice coffin, there was a blood-red talisman stuck tightly to the opening of the ice coffin. Faintly, one could still smell the strong smell of blood on the talisman.
The blood talisman uses the whole body's blood and essence to suppress the most vicious and evil demons.
This is a secret method to suppress evil and the living dead.
Except for the ice coffin in the center, there were eternally burning shark lanterns in the four corners of the palace. The lights flickered, but the shadows did not move.
On both sides of each shark lantern stood two lucky dolls made of white paper. The dolls had innocent smiles on their faces, but their faces were cracked. Ink-black liquid kept flowing down from the cracks, dripping onto the ground and slowly flowing towards the ice coffin in the center of the room.
When the ice thorns around the ice coffin came into contact with the black liquid, tiny cracks slowly appeared and continued to expand.
Looking at the current scene, the original ice thorns should have covered the entire palace, but under the corrosion of the unknown black liquid, only the ice thorns in the center of the palace remained.
The temperature of the entire palace was more than ten times lower than that outside. Directly opposite the ice coffin, there was a huge ice flower in full bloom. The flower was dotted with many beautiful mermaid pearls, which were shiny and glossy. Each of them represented the tragic death of a mermaid. And in the pistil of this ice flower, there was actually a drop of ice-blue water floating.
Compared with the mermaid pearl and the ice flower, this water bead seemed very ordinary, but Jiang Liqian knew at a glance that all the coldness in the palace came from this bead.
In other words, the source of power for the entire Crystal Palace is this drop of water.
The light here was not dim, but Jiang Liqian felt cold all over.
I wanted to withdraw immediately and escape from this place.
At this moment, seeing everything in front of him, Jiang Liqian realized that the legends of Shuiwan City and the secret realm of the immortal cave were not true.
Buried under the water of Shuiwan City is a magnificent cemetery, and it is the Blood Ice Tomb used to seal demons and evil spirits.
A cemetery like this should not have an entrance, so her junior brother really couldn't get in, but why was she able to get in?
Is it because... something sealed in here requires her to come?
Jiang Liqian didn't want anything to disrupt the world because of herself.
