Baiyu and Machima walked along this gigantic corridor.
The stone sculptures on both sides were lifelike.
Each one was as massive as a mountain, bringing imnse pressure, and a few more glances would make one fear that these giants might suddenly awaken.
As they walked to the end of the corridor and entered the first hall of the palace.
Baiyu finally understood why the people of the three families were not worried about others following them.
Because inside the first hall.
There were seven doors in total.
Except for different orientations, these seven doors were identical in every other way, with no differences.
The most astonishing thing is.
The people of the three families actually split into seven groups and entered the doors simultaneously.
This made those following dumbfounded.
"Do you have a map of this place? Among the seven doors, which one should we choose?" Baiyu looked at Machima beside him.
He always felt that the situation was getting more and more out of hand.
The real challenge is likely within this Seven Coiled Palace.
"No, no one has a map inside the Seven Coiled Palace, except those who live here. Those family disciples also probably do not know which way is correct.
However,
there are martial artists who have entered here before.
They have Eclipse Moon Realm predecessors inside the palace who will surely convey information to them, telling them which path is perilous."
Machima casually chose a door and walked in.
Since people from the three families have entered each of the seven doors, it shows that there’s no danger behind them, or at least the dangers are manageable.
Baiyu didn’t say much, naturally following closely.
However,
after passing through the first door, there was another long corridor.
At the end of the corridor, a hall identical to the previous one appeared, with seven doors as well.
Now Baiyu finally comprehended.
This thing.
It’s a maze.
Machima was also a bit stunned, for at this point, the figures of those family disciples had vanished, and no one knew which door they had entered.
"Which one to choose?"
She turned her head to Baiyu.
Baiyu felt very puzzled: "Shouldn’t you be the one choosing? Please, I was dragged into this as hired muscle by you. I’m at most acting as a fighter, regarding the intricacies of this palace, I’m utterly clueless, okay?
Big Sis,
did you not do any strategizing before coming in?"
Baiyu looked at her in puzzlent.
"Strategizing?"
Machima showed confusion.
"Just ans entering ruins like this, you should at least have so knowledge, right? Coming in without any plan, unless you can bulldoze through like the Eclipse Moon Realm, otherwise you’re just risking your life." Baiyu already thought she was as unreliable as Loloya.
Are all the City Lord’s Attendants this unreliable?
Baiyu felt a desperate frustration.
However, Machima’s expression indicated that she was indeed unaware of the entire interior of the Seven Coiled Palace.
"I only know about the situation inside the Seven Coiling Hall, and once we reach there, my goal for this trip will be accomplished."
Machima gave a na of a place.
Baiyu made her explain it in detail.
Finally,
he managed to understand what kind of place they were aiming for.
The Seven Coiling Hall.
It’s the resting place of the deity nad Seven Coils.
Obviously, such a place must be deep inside the palace, filled with peril, and a single misstep could lead to both being killed.
If he had known beforehand that they were going to such a dangerous place, and since Machima didn’t even understand the situation inside.
Baiyu would never have agreed to her request.
But now,
the door was sealed shut, and it was too late for him to back out.
"Let’s go through this door."
Baiyu suddenly pointed to the leftmost door.
"How are you sure this door is the right way?" Machima asked with so doubt.
Baiyu was resolute: "Either you choose, or if I choose, you don’t interfere or question my decision. In a team, it’s best to have one voice.
If you listen to ,
I am sowhat confident in getting you to the Seven Coiling Hall, at least more so than blindly gambling on luck.
I won’t gamble with my own life."
This statent shook Machima.
Indeed.
Baiyu’s manner seed far more reliable than her fumbling around.
"Alright, you will lead from now on." Machima didn’t hesitate.
First, because Baiyu was from Loloya, whom she could trust.
Secondly,
also due to Loloya, she believed in Loloya’s judgnt. If soone like him was sent to assist her, he must have exceptional qualities.
This was evident from the previous battles.
Baiyu was indeed more dependable.
"What’s your current combat capability? I need to know this so that I can make the right decisions in case of sudden situations."
Baiyu asked.
Machima did not hide: "When I go all out, I can reach the level of Tier Eight, Tier Nine in the Eclipse Moon Realm. But unless it’s a desperate situation, I won’t use such power, as it would cause my current realm to deteriorate. Normally, my combat level ranges from Eclipse Moon to teor.
Anyway,
teor Tier One is no match for ."
Baiyu nodded, "Then what was your level before, at your peak strength?"
"Tier Three in the Eclipse Moon Realm, the sa as Loloya. However, Loloya and I travel different paths; she doesn’t need to scatter skills to re-cultivate, while I need to scatter skills nine tis.
Of course,
our limits are also different.
For Loloya, at best in her lifeti, she can only reach Tier One in the Eclipse Moon Realm, unable to break through to the Sun Realm that can contend with divine spirits, unless she encounters so miraculous opportunity.
But if I complete nine scattering skills, I’ll be able to step into the Sun Realm."
At this point,
Machima’s face showed a hint of pride.
Indeed.
Her cultivation path was bumpy, yet if she could successfully endure the nine scattering skills, then after regrouping, she would be a powerful figure in the Sun Realm.
Directly rivaling the City Lord, making the Great City one of the most potent forces on the continent.
By then,
with two Sun Realm individuals, the Great City would genuinely stand at the pinnacle of human forces.
And the long-prepared plans by the City Lord could progress further.
Baiyu looked at Machima in astonishnt, feeling like this woman might have obtained so protagonist’s template.
"How many scattering skills have you completed so far?"
He couldn’t help but ask.
Machima said: "The eighth ti, after this scattering skill concludes, as long as I can recover, I’ll reach Tier One in the Eclipse Moon Realm.
However,
to recover, I need certain items from inside the Seven Coiling Hall.
This is the path the City Lord has set for , it won’t be wrong. She calculated that I must complete the eighth scattering skill inside the Seven Coiling Hall."
"I see, then we shouldn’t delay. Those three Eclipse Moon Realm powerhouses might also be searching for the Seven Coiling Hall."
Baiyu shook the pocket watch on his chest.
In the current situation, to find the right path, they had to rely on it.
The Dream Pocket Watch.
An extrely peculiar magical item.
