Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 269 The Maze of Death: The Prodigy of Tianxuan Palace Spits Blood in Anger!

If he had any doubts before, he is now completely convinced.

Names can be coincidental, the Qiankun Ring can be coincidental, but surely the Heavenly Eye can also be a coincidence!

So, what exactly is the connection between Yang Jian and Li Nezha and the legends of Earth?

Are they immortals?!

But shouldn't those be the legendary immortals? These two are clearly still growing!

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng's doubts were growing!

On Yang Jian's side, however, he had already raised his combat power to its peak. Holding a long spear, he stirred up storms with every move.

Those three eyes looked at the ancient beast, the Azure Lion, with icy indifference!

"prick!"

hum!

The next moment, Yang Jian roared, wielding his spear with one hand, and thrust it out explosively!

boom!

The thousand-foot spear gleam clashed with the Azure Lion. Although the latter possessed immense power, it could not withstand the sharpness of the spear.

Amidst the deafening roar and raging waves, he was blasted away!

With Yang Jian unleashing his full power, the guardian of the second level lost all advantage!

"Holy crap, bro, you're that scary?!"

At this moment, Li Nezha couldn't help but gasp.

He thought that by playing all his cards, he could rival Yang Jian, but now it seems he still falls short!

But Li Nezha still activated the ancient bracelet on his wrist, transforming back into his berserk state, and charged forward with Yang Jian.

Now, they need to deal with the guardian of this second level as soon as possible.

Watching the two men almost completely overpower the green lion, Yang Zhao could only shake his head and think to himself that they were a bunch of lunatics.

He arrived at the Dao Palace half a year earlier, yet he is now completely unable to compete with these three.

Although Gu Jiancheng had not yet used any combat abilities in the secret realm, his mastery of array formations alone was enough to defy the heavens.

After all, if it weren't for Gu Jiancheng, they wouldn't even have been able to enter this secret realm, and might even have been seriously injured!

Thus, the second challenge was even smoother than the first. In just a short while, Yang Jian and the other two joined forces to defeat the green lion.

Gu Jiancheng also successfully broke through all the restrictions on the second giant gate.

The central totem disappeared again, and the giant gate opened up a crack.

"go!"

Gu Jiancheng stood up and led the three of them inside.

Meanwhile, far before the first barrier, before the giant gate of flames, wails and roars echoed incessantly.

Before leaving, Gu Jiancheng added some extra material to the restrictions on the giant fiery gate, so the fire beasts that Lei Wanqing and the others faced were even stronger!

Apart from the two of them, among the other cultivators, only the top ten Tianxuan Palace elites and Lei Tong were still able to withstand the attack.

The others were no match for them.

In just a few moments of fighting, disciples began to fall one after another!

In the end, Lei Wanqing and Xu Lin had no choice but to unleash their full power and join forces with other top geniuses to kill the fire beast!

Even so, they still suffered heavy losses!

"hateful!"

"Why is this secret realm so difficult?!"

Lei Wanqing roared angrily.

Now his side only has thirty people left.

"Hehe, the more difficult it is, the greater the opportunities!"

"Lei Wanqing, if we're going to cooperate, why don't we discuss it first?"

Xu Lin sneered, "This giant gate is enveloped in flames. If I'm not mistaken, the inheritance within must also be related to flames. So, the inheritance of this level is mine, and the next level is yours. How about that?"

"can!"

After pondering for a moment, Lei Wanqing had no choice but to agree.

Now his side is growing larger and larger.

This is only the beginning of the secret realm; there's no need to completely break ties with Xu Lin right now.

The two then sat cross-legged in front of the giant gate and began to break the restrictions on it.

However, as their divine senses seeped into the restriction, their expressions instantly darkened.

Because the restrictions on this door are more complex than those on the entrance!

Even if they join forces, it will probably waste a lot of time!

At the same time, Gu Jiancheng had already handed Yang Jian a crystal containing a holy mark behind the second giant gate.

As expected, just like the reward for the first level, the second level also yielded the Holy King's Seal.

In other words, even if Yang Jian and Li Nezha left the secret realm at this point, the gains from this trip to the Outer Heaven were already extremely substantial.

"Jian Cheng, thank you!"

Yang Jian absorbed the Holy King's mark into his body and then quickly cupped his hands in greeting.

Although they belonged to the same side, they had no interaction before entering the Outer Heavens.

But now, they have really owed Gu Jian too much of a debt of gratitude.

"Don't mention it, it was just a small favor, I didn't waste any effort!"

Gu Jiancheng smiled.

Although he regretted not having received any inheritance, he was already plotting how to trick the two of them into joining the Taiji Sect.

With their talents, they can certainly make the Tai Chi Sect extremely powerful.

Otherwise, we would really lose a lot of money.

"Don't worry, no matter what happens in this third trial, we will do our best to help you overcome it. I will be satisfied with obtaining the Holy King's Seal," Yang Jian said solemnly.

He really wanted to help Gu Jiancheng obtain some inheritance opportunities.

"Hehe, no rush!"

Gu Jiancheng waved his hand.

After traversing the Giant Peak Passage for a long time, they still hadn't seen the third giant gate.

Just as Li Nezha was getting impatient and about to ask a question, Gu Jiancheng suddenly spoke up.

"arrive!"

Immediately, the four of them passed through the evil aura and arrived at a spacious cave.

But the next moment, when Yang Jian and the other two saw the scene before them clearly, they were stunned.

Because the cave is extremely large, dozens of ancient bronze doors stand on its walls.

Although none of them were as huge as the previous two levels.

However, it is still adorned with many mysterious totems.

The dense array of restrictions on it left Yang Jian and the others dumbfounded.

"What's going on?"

"If this is the way forward, what will become of us?!"

After a long while, Li Nezha clicked his tongue in amazement.

Immediately, all three of them looked at Gu Jiancheng.

If Gu Jiancheng weren't here, they would be no different from blind people, completely clueless about what to do.

But at this moment, Gu Jiancheng also frowned.

Although the map given by Shangguan Lin also depicted this route, it did not clearly indicate how to proceed.

Therefore, he had no choice but to use his Insightful Divine Power to investigate one by one.

After a full half-cup of tea's time, Gu Jiancheng finally withdrew his gaze.

"How is Jian Cheng?" Yang Jian asked hurriedly.

“These are the entrances to the maze!” Gu Jiancheng frowned.

"What? A maze?"

The three looked at each other in bewilderment. How could there be a maze in this secret realm?

"That's right!"

"At this point, I can only see that behind these dozens of giant gates, only nine gates may lead to the depths of the final secret realm."

"Therefore, we will split up here to look for opportunities!"

Gu Jiancheng nodded.

"separate!?"

"I'll stay with you!" Yang Jian quickly said.

The guardians he had encountered before were too powerful, and he was afraid that Gu Jiancheng was in danger.

Moreover, no one knows when Lei Wanqing and Xu Lin will catch up.

Yang Jian is truly worried.

"Hehe, no need!"

"I have my own methods!"

But Gu Jiancheng shook his head, confidently saying, "Within this secret realm, nothing can harm me!"

So, let's break up!

Gu Jiancheng immediately raised his hand and cast two seals, opening the two bronze doors on the cave wall.

"Brother Yang Jian, please come along."

"Nezha and Brother Yang Zhao, you two come together, and we'll meet at the end of the secret realm!"

"Alright, take care and be careful!" Yang Jian nodded, and with no other choice, he could only fly into the bronze door.

"Brother Gu, you must be careful! I'm scared without you!" Li Nezha gave Gu Jiancheng a deep look before entering the second bronze gate with Yang Zhao.

Finally, Gu Jiancheng stood in the cave, his gaze landing on the most inconspicuous bronze door.

This door was not one of the nine doors that Gu Jiancheng had previously selected.

It was a door that even Gu Jiancheng's all-seeing eyes couldn't see through.

Beyond that door lies an atmosphere of mystery and extreme danger.

Gu Jiancheng couldn't be sure if there was a true top-tier inheritance behind this bronze door.

But there is no doubt that there is something extremely ominous among them.

In fact, this is the only dead door among all the doors!

"Heh, I'd like to see what's going on with this road!"

But this sense of danger was something Gu Jiancheng hadn't experienced in a long time.

This feeling only made him more excited!

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng snorted coldly, stepped forward and completely sealed the door that Yang Jian and Li Nezha had entered. After erasing the mark, he pushed open the deathly bronze door and rushed inside.

At this moment, Lei Wanqing and Lei Tong had just broken through the first barrier of the Flame Gate and entered it.

What made Xu Lin's face gradually darken was that behind this giant gate, there was nothing but a deep passage filled with evil energy!

The inheritance and opportunity he had been so eagerly anticipating did not materialize!

He even frantically searched behind the giant gate, but still found nothing.

"What's the matter?"

"What about the legacy!?"

Lei Wanqing was completely dumbfounded at this point.

They went to great lengths, even at the cost of so many lives.

In the end, did we get nothing at all?

Xu Lin swayed, and almost vomited blood!

He couldn't accept this result.

"I refuse to believe it, let's keep going!"

Immediately, Xu Lin forcibly steadied his mind, enveloped himself in flames, and rushed forward recklessly.

But soon after, when Xu Lin and the others saw the giant blue gate blocking their way, they were all bewildered.

They've already reached the second level, but they still haven't found the reward for completing the first level!

Does this mean all our previous efforts were in vain?

hum!

And then a terrifying, spirited blue lion appeared before the blue gate, stirring up a whirlwind.

Despair began to creep into everyone's hearts.

This blue lion before us is even more terrifying than that fire bat!?

Is this an attempt to kill them?!
