Chapter 283 The Ancient Secret
"The secret of the Holy Land?"
Su Chen was ashamed, she thought that Hei Fenghuang wanted to ask him for rain and dew's favor again.
"What secret? Why didn't you tell me when you met Zen Guangming just now?"
Black Phoenix whispered: "This matter is a bit unusual, of course I will be the first to tell the master, and...forget it, I can't explain clearly, anyway, master, you will figure it out later."
Su Chen thought about it, and said, "Take me to have a look."
Black Phoenix quickly brought Su Chen to the depths of the cave, and suddenly a heat wave hit, and an ordinary magma pool appeared in front of him.
There are many active volcanoes nearby, and it is not uncommon for lava to appear.
"come out!"
Black Phoenix suddenly called out.
The huge head of the Emperor Fire Qilin suddenly emerged from the magma pool, and opened its bloody mouth.
Then Black Phoenix pulled Su Chen into the mouth of the Emperor Fire Qilin.
"Uh... what is this for?"
"Master, don't be impatient, you will know later."
Have you learned how to play tricks?
The Emperor Fire Qilin suddenly closed its mouth, moved its body, and sank into the magma.
Su Chen could vaguely sense that the Emperor Fire Qilin was swimming rapidly towards the depths of the magma.
After about half an hour, it seemed that they had finally arrived at their destination.
The big mouth of the emperor fire unicorn opened again, and the black phoenix carefully stimulated the vitality to protect Su Chen's body.
Su Chen went out to take a look, and found that there was a huge bubble in front of him.
Inside the bubble, there is a vacuum area, where a holy and pure white palace is suspended, which is completely made of top-grade jade, and looks very noble.
"What's this?"
It is indeed strange that there is such a strange palace hidden under the Holy Land.
"It happened to be discovered by the Emperor Fire Qilin when he was taking a bath in the magma. I went into it to investigate once before, and found some terrible things inside."
scary thing?
Su Chen followed Black Phoenix into the bubble.
As soon as he entered, Su Chen felt a strong burning sensation all over his body.
This place is obviously a vacuum environment, and there is no flame, but the temperature is terribly high. If it weren't for the protection of a strong man like the black phoenix, Su Chen would definitely be burned to ashes when he came in alone.
"Master, be careful. This place is filled with the purest holy fire of light. This kind of flame has no form, but can burn even the void. The best way is to smear some saliva of the emperor fire unicorn on the body, which can effectively resist the power of the holy fire of light. "Hei Fenghuang said, and let the Emperor Fire Qilin spit out its huge tongue, and rinsed it on Su Chen.
Su Chen looked at his wet body and felt quite helpless.
But the effect is really good, the saliva of the Emperor Fire Qilin formed a special protective film, preventing the outside temperature from invading Su Chen.
Without further hesitation, Su Chen immediately flew towards the palace.
The size of the palace is very large, as if it was not built for human habitation at all, just the two white jade pillars standing at the entrance are hundreds of meters high.
After walking in, Su Chen found that the palace was empty, and there was nothing unusual.
"Where is the horror you speak of?"
"Master, don't worry."
Black Phoenix carefully checked the surrounding environment, then led Su Chen into the palace, turned around and found a huge and empty room.
The furniture in this room is very complete, but the size of everything is hundreds of times larger than that used by normal people. The white jade soft bed is more than 30 meters high, and it is afraid that hundreds of people can sleep on it at the same time. .
"Is this not the palace of giants?"
"I don't know, this palace is not the point, the point is the things below."
Black Phoenix pulled Su Chen under the bed.
There is a piece of cracked white jade floor tiles, the gap is about a person's width, just enough to drill into.
"Master, come with me."
After all, Black Phoenix got into the gap.
Su Chen gathered his mind and followed immediately.
All the way down, penetrating the thick ground, Su Chen saw that there seemed to be a huge secret room below.
The two slowly floated in.
Seeing the things around him, Su Chen couldn't help frowning, and his breathing became a little disordered.
In this closed secret room, hundreds of square tripods carved from white jade were placed neatly and neatly.
Each square tripod is filled with a milky white liquid.
Among them are floating one by one objects that resemble giant walnuts.
No...not walnuts, brains!
"these are……"
Su Chen was so shocked that he didn't know what to say for a while.
Hei Fenghuang said: "Looking at the shape, these are not human brains, but the brains of demon masters. The sea of consciousness of each brain is completely preserved. They were all masters at the level of the demon race's wheel sea level. There are a total of one hundred brains. In the White Feather Fang Ding, there are sixty-three brains, and thirty-seven are vacant."
"Are you sure these are what the Holy Land did?"
"These brains have existed for a long and short time. The oldest one has been soaked for tens of thousands of years. Here is the foot of the Holy Land. Apart from the Holy Land, I really can't think of anyone who has the ability to capture such a brain. A large number of strong demons store their brains here."
"What's the reason?"
Su Chen frowned, he really couldn't think of the reason why Holy Land did this.
If you simply punish the demons, killing them is obviously the best result. Not to mention that doing so will only increase the trouble, there are also certain hidden dangers.
Is it to imprison these demon masters?
It seems that these brains do have a certain amount of life, that is to say, most of these demon masters are still alive, but there is only one brain and sea of consciousness left, barely keeping their souls, and they are in a state that life would be worse than death.
This method of imprisonment and punishment is indeed very effective, but with the prestige of the Holy Land, no matter how they look at it, they can't imagine that they can do such a thing.
Black Phoenix said: "Based on my guess, the Holy Land probably wants to study the ancient secrets!"
Su Chen asked: "What is the secret of the ancient times?"
It suddenly occurred to him that the purpose of Chan Guangming and Wu Mingkong's trip to Taikoo Island seemed to be to find some clues.
Hei Fenghuang said: "Master, you know that before the Three Puritans spread the light of practice to the Xuanyuan Continent tens of thousands of years ago, the Xuanyuan Continent was completely under the control of the demons."
Su Chen nodded: "I've heard of it."
"This is not a secret. Most people in the world have heard of it, but people in the world only know one thing and don't know the other. I once heard my father say that the demons were not actually the rulers of the Xuanyuan Continent back then. Prisoners on the Xuanyuan Continent, the Xuanyuan Continent at that time was a huge cage!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Black Phoenix continued: "Millions of years ago in the ancient times, the immortals built twelve towers to reach the sky on the Xuanyuan Continent, not to connect immortals, but to exile countless prisoners here. A huge secret has been discovered, this is the ancient secret, and it is said that whoever can crack this secret will be qualified to escape from the sea of suffering and ascend from the ground."
