At this mont, the ancient well of Canglang Pavilion seed to be shrouded in a mysterious and sinister veil, with an air of deathly silence pervading all around.
As soon as they approached the ancient well, a sinister and eerie aura surged forth like an undercurrent, with a bone-chilling coldness, causing everyone to shudder uncontrollably, their hairs standing on end.
Shi Xiong clutched Shi Feiyang's sleeve tightly, his voice trembling as he said, "Grand Squad Leader, why does this place feel so ominous? Could there be so evil spirits?" Shi Feiyang patted Shi Xiong's hand, comforting him, "Fear not, as long as I am here. We are here to uncover the truth and must not be intimidated by these appearances." At the bottom of the well, it seed like a terrifying beast dormant for a millennium suddenly opened its bloody maw, spewing forth rcury soaked with serpent venom.
The rcury flowed like a silver torrent, tumbling and roaring, emitting a pungent odor, and in the dim light, it shimred with a cold and lethal sheen, as if carrying a curse from Hell, ready to devour everything in its path.
Shi Feiyang's gaze was sharp as a winter star in the dark night, instantly capturing the dangerous aura.
He reacted with extre swiftness, without hesitation, drawing out the Celestial Frost Blade.
The instant the Celestial Frost Blade was unsheathed, a chill spread in all directions, and the surrounding air froze further in this eerie environnt, becoming even more austere and deadly.
"Grand Squad Leader, this rcury looks terrifying, can we handle it?" Xie Wen frowned, a hint of fear in his eyes.
Shi Feiyang responded with a determined expression, speaking in a deep voice, "Xie Wen, do not panic. My Hundred Victories Saber Technique is sure to repel this venomous rcury."
He then executed a move from the Hundred Victories Saber Technique called "Reverse Wave Slash," and in an instant, his whole deanor surged like a volcanic eruption, enveloped in an invisible aura of battle.
The blade's light cut through the night sky like a lightning bolt, striking the venomous rcury with overwhelming force.
At the mont the blade t the rcury, it emitted a sizzling sound, like the sharp scream when tal clashes with roaring flas, the powerful saber force slicing through the rcury.
Wisps of blue smoke rose from the blade, a bizarre phenonon created by the interaction of serpent venom and saber energy, as if demons were laughing hideously in the mist. After successfully repelling the rcury, Shi Feiyang's gaze, sharp as a keen-eyed falcon, swiftly scanned the well walls.
He keenly sensed that the well walls seed to conceal so unknown mystery.
Holding his breath, he carefully observed, missing not a single subtle detail.
Soon, he discovered a hidden door in the well wall.
The hidden door was covered with layers of thick moss and gri, and had it not been for his keen observation and extraordinary insight, it would have been nearly impossible to detect its existence. Shi Feiyang called to the others, "Co over, there's a hidden door here."
Everyone gathered around, gazing at the hidden door, filled with curiosity and tension.
Shi Xiong scratched his head, asking, "Grand Squad Leader, what could be behind this hidden door? Could there be any danger?"
Shi Feiyang smiled, "Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Let's open it and see."
Together, they pushed open the hidden door, imdiately greeted by a stale and decayed air, the dust-covered years rushing forward.
Behind the door was a passage leading to the private armory of an Anti-Japanese War Hero. Inside were various rusty weapons and armors, along with so mysterious blueprints and letters. In the dim light, these items exuded a mystic aura, telling stories of the past.
This significant discovery, like a ray of dawn piercing through darkness, might hold the key to unraveling the mystery, igniting a fla of hope in everyone's hearts.
Shi Feiyang pondered for a mont and then said to Xie Wen and Shi Xiong, "You two go explore elsewhere thoroughly, leave no stone unturned." Xie Wen looked troubled and said, "Grand Squad Leader, this journey is fraught with danger, shall we summon more experts from the Heroic Sakura Association for support? I'm afraid we might not handle it if we encounter danger again."
Shi Xiong chid in, "Yes, Grand Squad Leader, having more people gives peace of mind." Shi Feiyang shook his head, "No need, the clues are urgent. Waiting for experts might cause us to miss the best opportunity. Rest assured, I will ensure your safety."
Xie Wen and Shi Xiong followed orders and left, while Shi Feiyang went to the Dragon God Pagoda to invite Lark and Bi Ling'Er, the two celestial maidens, requesting their assistance in properly moving the weapons, armor, mysterious blueprints, and letters into the Dragon God Pagoda.
The two celestial maidens appeared gracefully, carefully transporting the various items to the Dragon God Pagoda.
After leaving the ancient well of Canglang Pavilion, they hurried towards the mural corridor of Tang Yin's Tomb.
The corridor was suffused with a mysterious and oppressive aura, as if invisible eyes were watching them in the dark. The murals on the walls appeared particularly eerie and terrifying in the dim, yellowish light, the mottled patterns seemingly ready to spring to life at any mont.
Shi Xiong closely followed behind Shi Feiyang, whispering, "Grand Squad Leader, why is this corridor so eerie? I always feel a chill down my spine."
Shi Feiyang gently reassured, "Don't be afraid, walk normally, and observe your surroundings."
Shi Feiyang and the group slowly moved along the corridor, a painting titled "Lady Playing the Flute" quietly coming into view.
As soon as Shi Feiyang saw the painting, his heart tightened sharply, keenly sensing sothing unusual.
Though the lady in the painting was beautiful and elegant, as if she had stepped out of the picture, there was a subtly eerie aura emanating from her gaze, as if it could draw one's soul into it.
