237: The megalithic underground palace, the suddenly missing senior sister

Those dozens of Cultivators also released Spells of various attributes to attack.

The Spells they released collided with the Spells released by Su Yun's trio in the middle of the stone chamber, exploding instantly.

The powerful residual spiritual energy waves spread directly in all directions, but they didn't have the slightest impact on the surrounding stone walls.

Before long, those Cultivators were blown to ashes by the joint attack of Su Yun's trio.

"The clothes of these Cultivators seem somewhat similar to the attire of the Ten Great Holy Lands' Disciples."

Su Yun had carefully observed those Cultivators during the battle just now.

He discovered that a portion of the Cultivators were wearing the attire of the Ten Great Holy Lands.

"And several of those Cultivators used Taixuan Holy Land's Spells."

Luo Qingshuang said with a solemn face and a cold tone.

She had also sensed something unusual.

She originally thought it was an illusion, but upon careful observation, she realized that several Spells were unique to Taixuan Holy Land.

Only Taixuan Holy Land's Personal Disciples could practice them.

She had even practiced one of those Spells herself.

"Could these people be Cultivators who died in the Sunken Abyss Mystic Realm before?

A few of the female Cultivators seemed to display the secret techniques of Jade Pool Holy Land; perhaps they were Disciples of Jade Pool Holy Land.

They are likely being manifested again under the influence of the Giant Stone Maze Formation."

Liu Ruoxi's red lips moved slightly as she spoke with a tone of certainty.

She had seen several Personal Disciples of Jade Pool Holy Land among that group of Cultivators.

She judged this based on the attire and the secret techniques these Disciples used.

"Jade Pool Holy Land's secret techniques?"

Luo Qingshuang looked at Liu Ruoxi with some suspicion.

How did Liu Ruoxi distinguish that some of those female Cultivators were using Jade Pool Holy Land's secret techniques?

She was just a Cultivator from a Cultivation Family, not a Disciple of Jade Pool Holy Land.

How could she be so clear about the secret techniques of Jade Pool Holy Land?

Wait!

Could she be someone from Jade Pool Holy Land?

Could the surname Liu be related to the Yaochi Holy Maiden?

At this moment, Liu Ruoxi's face suddenly stiffened.

Oh no, she almost forgot she was hiding her identity.

Her current identity wasn't the Yaochi Holy Maiden, but a Cultivator from the Liu Family of the Central Domain.

Could she have been exposed?

Thinking of this, Liu Ruoxi felt a bit of a thrill, and she looked at Su Yun and Luo Qingshuang as if nothing had happened.

A hint of suspicion appeared on Luo Qingshuang's face, while Su Yun had no expression.

At this time, Su Yun also noticed the change in Liu Ruoxi's expression.

He laughed inwardly.

Could it be that Liu Ruoxi realized she had a slip of the tongue and didn't know what to do?

"I often read the ancient books in my family.

They record the characteristics of the Cultivation Techniques of the various Sacred Lands.

That's why I could see that the group of female Cultivators was likely using Jade Pool Holy Land's secret techniques and guessed they were Jade Pool Holy Land's Disciples,"

Liu Ruoxi hurriedly explained.

"Ancient books?"

Luo Qingshuang still felt something was off.

However, she didn't think too much about it.

The Ten Great Holy Lands had existed for so long; it wasn't strange for a Central Domain Cultivation Family to have ancient books recording the characteristics of their Spells.

Seeing the suspicion on Luo Qingshuang's face fade, Liu Ruoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this Saintess is clever.

Otherwise, I would have been exposed!

It seems she needs to be more careful next.

She didn't want to reveal her identity so soon.

"We need to leave this place quickly."

Su Yun noticed that after dealing with the Cultivators manifested from the murals, the murals were regenerating, but the speed was slower; it would probably take a while before they could continue manifesting.

"True, but Young Master Su, which way do you think is better to go?

There are so many entrances here; if we take the wrong one, it'll not only waste time but might also be dangerous,"

Liu Ruoxi nodded and said.

"I'll try to investigate with my Divine Sense first."

Su Yun immediately released his powerful Divine Sense, preparing to investigate the situation of the dozen or so entrances.

After a moment, he shook his head and said:

"No, this Giant Stone Maze has the effect of suppressing Divine Sense; my Divine Sense can't leave this one-mile radius at all."

"Then it's troublesome,"

Liu Ruoxi said with a solemn expression.

Many of her investigation Spells and Divine Sense also lost their effectiveness here.

Luo Qingshuang also frowned slightly.

She couldn't think of any way either.

After all, her Divine Sense wasn't as powerful as Junior Brother Yun's, so she had no way to investigate those dozen entrances of the Giant Stone Maze.

Could they only pick a path at random?

Su Yun pondered for a moment and thought of two methods.

One was to spend Luck Points to search for the path to the center of the Giant Stone Maze through the System.

Although this method was convenient and fast, it required consuming Luck Points.

The second was to choose an entrance through the Luck of a female protagonist.

He had two female protagonists by his side.

With their Luck, they would surely be able to find the correct entrance.

As for himself, he wasn't affected by Luck; if he chose, it would be equivalent to picking one at random, so it was better to let a female protagonist choose.

As for whom to ask, it would definitely be Luo Qingshuang, since she was his Senior Sister.

"Senior Sister Qingshuang, you pick an entrance!"

Su Yun looked at Luo Qingshuang and spoke seriously.

"Junior Brother Yun."

Luo Qingshuang felt a slight warmth in her heart.

She didn't expect Junior Brother Yun to trust her so much,

letting her choose the path.

After entering the Sunken Abyss Mystic Realm, she hadn't been of much help and felt a hint of disappointment in her heart.

But now, after hearing Su Yun's words, the disappointment in her heart vanished completely.

Although her current strength couldn't compare to Junior Brother Yun's,

she could still be of help to Su Yun!

Immediately, she pointed to an entrance and said directly:

"Junior Brother Yun."

"Let's take this entrance."

"But I don't know if this entrance is the correct one."

"I trust you, Senior Sister Qingshuang!

Let's go, we'll enter this one."

Su Yun led the two women into the entrance Luo Qingshuang had chosen.

As he expected, they didn't encounter any particularly powerful enemies along the way.

They even found many Heaven And Earth Treasures.

These Heaven And Earth Treasures were all inside the stone chambers within the Giant Stone Maze.

There were also quite a few Medicinal Pills that could be used at the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Next, whenever they encountered an entrance, he would let Luo Qingshuang choose.

Two hours later, the three finally arrived at the center of the Giant Stone Maze.

There was a massive underground palace here.

This underground palace was pitch black, at least tens of thousands of feet in size, built from countless giant stones. The outer walls of the main hall inside the palace were carved with profound ancient characters, and countless spiritual runes floated around it.

There were a dozen or so passages nearby that could enter this underground palace.

Even from a distance, the three could feel the thick spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from the underground palace.

"This Giant Stone Underground Palace should be the center of the Giant Stone Maze."

Su Yun observed the surroundings and guessed.

"Let's go, let's head in and take a look."

Su Yun took the lead and entered the gate of the Giant Stone Underground Palace.

Liu Ruoxi also followed quickly.

"Hmm?

The aura of the Ice Soul Sword Body?"

Just as Luo Qingshuang entered the Giant Stone Underground Palace behind the two, she felt a familiar aura.

At that moment, a colorless spiritual light flashed.

She vanished silently from the spot.

A moment later, Su Yun finally reacted.

"Senior Sister Qingshuang?"

He discovered that only he and Liu Ruoxi remained near the gate of the Giant Stone Underground Palace.

Subsequently, Su Yun searched around for a bit but didn't find any sign of Luo Qingshuang.

"Miss Liu, did you discover anything?"

"No, Miss Luo seemed to disappear in an instant."

Liu Ruoxi hadn't noticed any movement; she also realized in the blink of an eye that one person was missing.
