Chapter 175 Guixu Mirage

"Hmm?"

Looking at the "Love and Concubine" state above his head, Cao Shuang could infer that Feng Xiaotao should be nearby.

"Strange, I don't see any mirage monsters around?"

He looked around and didn't see any monsters, but instead smelled a faint aroma of wine.

It was coming from the palace.

The two quickened their pace and were about to enter the palace, but suddenly stopped under the plaque at the entrance of the hall.

"What's wrong? Brother Ye, is there something wrong?"

Gu Wanning asked in confusion.

Cao Shuang frowned, "Listen..."

"Listen to what?"

"The sound of the wind." Cao Shuang said solemnly, "It's too quiet here, there is no wind at all, how can there be a sound of wind, this is too weird."

Gu Wanning was stunned, pricked up his ears and felt carefully, and then he noticed a faint sound of wind.

Although the sound was insignificant, it was indeed the sound of the wind.

To be precise, it sounded more like the breathing of some creature.

…………

On the other side.

In front of the same palace gate.

Holding the Thunder Sword, Feng Xiaotao scanned the surroundings vigilantly.

"My Lord, why don't you leave?"

Zhang Jiao's spirit shadow slowly emerged, asking in confusion.

"CP's double experience status has taken effect, which means he is here."

Feng Xiaotao narrowed her eyes, with a cold light flashing in her eyes.

Swish!

The long sword swung, the sword flowers flashed, and brought out a dazzling light.

Although she slashed at the air, the sword blade cut through the void, still bringing out a handful of blood mist.

"Ah!!"

A shrill scream came from the void.

"It escaped again?"

"How should I get out of this place!!" Feng Xiaotao was extremely angry.

Then, she continued to move forward and walked into the palace community.

A moment later, she actually appeared under the plaque again.

She also swung a sword and slashed at an invisible place, bringing out a handful of blood mist.

After dozens of reciprocating cycles...

[Ding! Your CP: Crazy Xiaotao, successfully killed: Mirage lv100, obtained: Experience +5800000...]

...

"Strange, I'm back here again."

At the same time, Cao Shuang and Gu Wanning walked around the palace complex.

They found that there was no one inside and nothing was gained.

So they decided to leave the palace and continue to explore.

As a result, they walked and walked, and returned to the entrance of the palace.

The two characters "Mirage" were written on the plaque.

A faint sound of wind could be heard in my ears.

"A ghost wall?" Gu Wanning was suspicious.

Cao Shuang frowned, always feeling that things were not simple.

Standing in place, staring at the plaque, he thought for a long time and finally made a choice.

Cao Shuang picked up a dagger, stabbed it hard at the plaque, and scratched a mark on it.

"Let's go, keep moving forward."

He turned around, took Gu Wanning's hand, and resolutely stepped into the palace.

After walking around and finding nothing, the two continued to move forward.

As a result, they walked and walked and returned to the entrance.

"Oh my god, where is the scratch?"

"Why is it gone?"

Gu Wanning was scared and grabbed Cao Shuang's arm, not daring to move forward.

This place is simply weird.

The ghost wall doesn't look like a ghost wall, and getting lost doesn't look like getting lost.

It's like being trapped in a time loop, endless.

Cao Shuang frowned: "Try again."

So he picked up the dagger and scratched the plaque fiercely.

As a result, something even more weird happened.

"Oh my God, what's going on?!"

"Why is there two scratches?"

Gu Wanning's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the plaque in disbelief.

Is it evil?

This time, Cao Shuang was also confused.

This matter is full of evil, and the scratch will appear by itself.

Could it be that the first scratch disappeared and was transferred to the second plaque?

That doesn't make sense, this is not a scratch he carved.

"Hehehe..."

A sinister laugh came from behind the plaque, frightening Gu Wanning.

She shouted in horror: "Who! Who is playing tricks?"

Then she drew her bow and shot an arrow.

The violent wind force gathered and turned into a sharp arrow, which flew towards the plaque.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, and the wind shattered the plaque.

The next second, a handful of blood mist floated out.

With a scream, the breath of the invisible monster disappeared.

"Brother Ye, what was that just now?"

Gu Wanning ran to Cao Shuang with a pale face and grabbed his sleeve.

"Don't worry, it should be a mirage."

Cao Shuang patted her head, signaling her not to be afraid.

"Keep going."

"Okay!"

The two took another step, crossed the palace, and continued forward.

After walking for an unknown period of time, they came to the bottom of the plaque again.

"Oh my god, why are you back again?"

"Are we under an illusion?"

Gu Wanning couldn't help complaining.

Cao Shuang shook his head and denied, "It's not an illusion!"

He could rule out the possibility of an illusion 100%.

Because in the Martial Saint Trial Tower, he accidentally obtained a passive skill of "Iron Will".

It can be immune to all mental attacks.

Illusions are ineffective against him.

And...this is definitely not an illusion, but a real place.

Just because the plaque in the previous palace had been smashed by Gu Wanning's arrow.

But at this moment, the plaque in front of the two has been restored to its original state.

Cao Shuang suspected that there were really so many palaces in this place.

After telling Gu Wanning this conjecture, she immediately refuted it.

"That's not right, how to explain the scratches?"

"Xiao Tao scratched it, we are just walking the path she walked."

As soon as Cao Shuang said this, Gu Wanning reacted immediately.

"I understand!" She suddenly realized, "The reason why the scratches in front disappeared is because Sister Xiaotao didn't leave a mark on the plaque at that time, so the plaque we passed by was brand new."

"And the reason why we saw two scratches is because Sister Xiaotao carved them to verify whether it was a ghost wall."

"It made us mistakenly think that there were more scratches."

"In fact, we just walked from a scratched palace to a two-scratched palace!"

"And the reason why the plaque is restored to its original state now is not because of any illusion!"

"It's because we left the previous palace and came to a brand new palace, so the plaque is naturally intact!"

After Gu Wanning finished speaking, he jumped up excitedly and cheered.

Finding the answer to the question is equivalent to finding the right path and reaching the destination unimpeded all the way.

"Keep going, maybe Xiaotao will leave us a secret code or mark on the road."
