If the treasure within this underground palace could fall into his hands, Xu Fan was confident that no one would dare harm that little girl, Xiao Die.
However, now was not the ti for such thoughts.
Xu Fan believed that by now, Igarashi had already reached the palace at the depths of the abyss. The most urgent thing was to think about how he himself could get down there.
"I should rely on them."
After a brief thought, Xu Fan's gaze shifted toward the flock of cranes flying toward him.
The height of the cliff made it impossible for him to descend on his own; only by riding these cranes could he possibly reach the palace below.
However, Xu Fan had no idea how to control these cranes.
After all, he had only heard of the chanical techniques.
"It should be related to spiritual power."
Thinking, Xu Fan quickly got an answer in his mind.
These chanical beasts are driven by spiritual power; to attract them over, it must require spiritual power.
Reaching out a hand, Xu Fan extended his spiritual power from his palm!
Coo~ Coo~
Sure enough, Xu Fan's guess was proven right. The light emitted by the spiritual power in his palm imdiately attracted the flock of cranes soaring in the sky.
They cooed and flapped their wings as they flew toward the cliff where Xu Fan stood.
These cranes were non-hostile chanical beasts. When they flew to the cliff, flapping their wings, they approached Xu Fan.
Xu Fan estimated that these cranes were placed here to carry people to the palace below.
Carrying Asao Mai on his back, Xu Fan leaped directly onto one of the cranes.
As expected, once Xu Fan was seated on the crane, it cooed and started flapping its wings.
In an instant, with a gust of wind, the crane lifted Xu Fan and flew off the cliff.
Under the starlit sky, the crane rode the wind, gradually heading down the cliff towards the ancient city below.
As the altitude decreased, the palace's details beca increasingly clear.
Sitting on the crane's back, Xu Fan observed the chanical warriors constantly patrolling within the palace, frowning deeply.
Just from the cliff above, he couldn't see them clearly. Now, closer, he realized there were indeed so many patrolling chanical warriors inside the palace.
These chanical warriors were about three tis the size of ordinary people.
With a giant-like stature and the golden armor they wore, they seed very formidable.
Although he wasn't entirely sure, instinct told Xu Fan that these patrolling warriors were undoubtedly different from the cranes he was riding.
They likely existed to guard this palace.
If they discovered him, these chanical warriors would undoubtedly launch a ruthless attack!
"I wonder how these chanical beasts compare in strength to martial artists..."
Riding on the crane's back, Xu Fan carefully observed the palace's chanical warriors, muttering to himself.
Their weapons glead with an aura, possibly cutting a person in half with just a swing!
Xu Fan estimated that even innate experts might not gain much against these chanical warriors.
Even he and Igarashi, with their powers of entering Dao, might not fare much better.
"I wonder if that guy has a solution."
The treasure stored within this underground palace tomb was invaluable, but acquiring it certainly ant a confrontation with these chanical beasts.
Engaging head-on with these pain-unfearing, death-free adversaries was definitely not a wise choice.
Xu Fan pondered if Igarashi had a way to avoid these chanical beasts.
Imdiately, he began searching for Igarashi's figure in the air.
If he wasn't already there, he must be hiding sowhere, avoiding the chanical beasts' pursuit.
Suppose, after searching in the air for a long ti, he still couldn't find Igarashi's trace.
Xu Fan couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed, even sowhat worried.
Knowing that there weren't many drugs capable of reviving soone from death,
If Igarashi got his hands on it, his opportunity would significantly dwindle.
Unwilling to give up, Xu Fan resud observing.
However, before he could risk activating the golden glow of his right eye, the crane had already landed back on the ground.
Although he felt a bit disappointed, Xu Fan had no ti to complain now.
At this mont, he didn't want to cause much commotion that might alert the patrolling chanical beasts outside.
Otherwise, he would be dood.
Instinctively, Xu Fan knew that if he provoked these chanical beasts, he would be t with endless pursuers, chanical warriors.
Taking advantage of not being exposed yet, Xu Fan closed his eyes, recalling the scene he had seen from above.
This palace likely imitated the architecture of the flourishing Tang Dynasty.
If constructed according to this architectural style, the location of the treasure could be roughly guessed.
The palace's chanical warriors patrolled thodically; the deeper one goes, the stronger they beco.
Evidently, the outer-to-inner strength of the chanical beasts was designed to protect the most crucial items hidden within the underground palace.
The contents stored in this underground palace are vital, which requires no further explanation.
"I must reach it before him."
With only a short distance to the destination remaining, Xu Fan took a deep breath, determinedly speaking.
Seeing a team of patrolling chanical warriors depart, Xu Fan seized the opportunity, rapidly moving toward the most crucial hall of the palace.
Stealthily infiltrating the village, avoiding gunfire, Xu Fan had already decided on his approach.
Though this slow approach toward the main hall was a bit too slow, in reality, it was also the most prudent and ti-saving thod.
After all, if those chanical warriors locked onto him, he wouldn't stand a chance.
Moving stealthily, cautiously, it wasn't long before Xu Fan neared the section where the palace of the underground tomb was located.
Anticipating the surprises awaiting him in the main hall, Xu Fan's heart couldn't help but surge with excitent.
Hoping Isuzu's ssage wasn't a fabrication.
Otherwise, without that kind of divine dicine, he wouldn't forgive himself.
Holding his breath and blending into the night, Xu Fan quickly approached the main hall.
"In just five minutes, I can enter the main hall of this underground palace tomb."
Carefully infiltrating it all the way, Xu Fan only had a little distance remaining to reach the palace of the underground tomb.
The further he went, the more cautious he beca.
After circumventing a team of guards, Xu Fan hid in a secluded spot, waiting for an opportunity to approach the underground palace tomb's main hall.
The contents within this main hall weren't given for free.
Just the guards at the main hall's entrance, like black iron towers, were enough to block many people.
"I need to devise a plan to lure them away..."
