Chapter 1184
Chapter 1184
Just as Chen Chen stepped onto the black and white cattail hassock, there were a few shrill cries from far away. The cries were filled with despair and it blew away the clouds in the sea of clouds, revealing the faces of all the palaces in the sea of clouds. There were as many as nine of them.
Each palace had a different color, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white!
The cattail hassock under Chen Chen's feet was also affected by the cries. After a few swings, Chen Chen almost fell off!
Fortunately, Peacock was quick enough to pull Chen Chen off the cattail hassock. When Chen Chen's feet touched the ground, his vest was already soaked!
After that, Chen Chen and the others did not dare to act rashly. After waiting for a moment and hearing no more movements, Peacock smiled and said, "Let's go, if we don't go now, there will be people behind us!"
After that, she stepped onto the cattail hassock that Chen Chen was standing on just now. The black and white cattail hassock immediately glided into the sea of clouds...
Chen Chen and Swift did not dare to delay. They each chose a black and white cattail hassock and followed Peacock!
The cattail hassock glided very quickly and very steadily. There seemed to be some kind of restriction. The three of them didn't feel any breeze on their faces. After only half a cup of tea's time, the three of them arrived in front of a white palace. "This … how is this a palace!"
Chen Chen jumped down from the cattail hassock and looked at his feet and then at the open palace door. He could not help but groan, "This floor... The palace door and the entire palace... It's all piled up with white jade, there's no gap at all. Is this what 'flawless' refers to?"
Peacock was also very surprised. There were many palaces on the Incense Cult's Lingxiang Peak but compared to this palace, it paled in comparison.
"Let's go in and have a look!"
Peacock nodded slightly, holding the soft sword in her hand, she raised her head and entered the palace. The palace was huge and there were no illusions. It was not much different from a normal palace except that there was something similar to a Buddhist shrine at the head of the palace. There were curtains, incense burners, and a jade table. The only thing missing was the head of the table, the object that was supposed to be enshrined under the curtains!
"Look, Sister Peacock... Over there... Is that a jade scroll?"
Swift's eyes were sharp. When Chen Chen saw the table, she had already noticed several shelves placed casually at the foot of the hall on the left!
Chen Chen was also attracted by Swift's words. When he turned to look, he clapped his hands and smiled. "Great, we've finally gained something!"
"That's not all!
Look over there! "
Peacock was as calm as ever. She pointed at the other end of the hall opposite the jade scroll. There were no shelves there, only long and narrow supports. On each of the supports, one could vaguely see a strange-looking weapon!
"Artifact?" Swift blurted out.
"Probably!"
Peacock nodded, she looked to her left and right and ordered, "My two junior sisters, it's only right that we take the lead, we must act now, do not return empty-handed!"
"Yes, I will listen to Senior Sister's arrangements!"
"Then … Let's start from this jade scroll and see if we can get anything good!" Peacock said as she walked to the front of the shelf.
The shelf looked like an ordinary shelf, but it was milky white in color. There were many jade scrolls on the shelf. However, when Peacock reached out to pick up a jade scroll, her hand was pushed to the side by a soft barrier. She could not touch it at all!
"This..." Peacock frowned and raised the soft sword in her right hand without hesitation. She channeled her true energy and a three feet long sword light appeared. Peacock squinted her eyes and raised the sword. "Swoosh!" It was aimed at the jade scroll!
With a crisp clang, the restriction on the jade slip emitted a milky white brilliance and blocked the sword light.
Peacock and the other two did not have any divine sense so they could not tell if there were any flaws in the barrier. When they saw that the sword light did not work, they looked at each other.
"My two junior sisters, I will go first. When I run out of true energy, you can continue..." Peacock gritted her teeth and said.
"Don't, Senior Sister. The true energy in our bodies is not easy to come by, let's... Try it first, don't exhaust it. Aren't there other things nearby?
If we exhaust our true energy here, the other things will be lost! "Chen Chen did not agree with Peacock's suggestion.
"Hmm, alright, let's do as Chen Chen says!"
Peacock said and slashed a few more times. The barrier on the jade scroll did not budge at all. Peacock then retreated. Chen Chen and Swift went up to give it a try, but they could not break it...
"Let's go over there and take a look. Maybe the barrier there is weaker?" Chen Chen suggested.
Peacock thought for a moment and nodded. She then walked over to the area where the strange instruments were placed. She picked up a long and thin wooden instrument and slashed at it with the soft sword again. It was to no avail.
"Forget it, forget it!"
Chen Chen was impatient, he kept the soft sword and said, "Senior Sister, I will go to the main hall. It's better to call for the Grand Leader or the Grand Elder. How can we break a barrier like this?"
"Please don't!"
Peacock grabbed Chen Chen and scolded, "If we can't break it, even the monks from the Dalin Temple may not be able to break it. The other martial artists will not be able to break it either.
But if you go to the Grand Leader, you will attract the attention of Master Tiangang and the others. Let's not talk about their unscrupulous methods, who knows if they will take these jade scrolls. Even if we attract their attention and they come here, won't we lose the initiative? "
"Then... What should we do?" Chen Chen frowned.
"Let's go. The three of us will split up and search through everything in this hall. Let's see … if there's anything we can get our hands on!" After Peacock gave her orders, she took the lead and left!
Chen Chen and Swift also went in different directions.
However, when the three of them met at the other end of the main hall, they were all empty-handed. They did not get anything.
"There's nothing?" Peacock frowned.
"That... Senior Sister, there are a few cattail hassocks in the corner, they look... Nothing special..." Chen Chen heard this and said hesitantly.
"Go get them quickly!"
Peacock shouted. "Everything that can be taken from here, we must take it. Who knows, there might be something good. We... We don't have Divine Sense, we can't tell. Getting them is the most important thing!"
"Mm." Chen Chen responded and quickly turned around. Not long after, he came back with four emerald green cattail hassocks in his hands.
"Let's go and take a look at the back of the main hall ~" Peacock looked at the door not far away. Although the door was wide open, they could not see what was outside.
The three of them walked quickly out of the main hall. When they looked up, they were stunned. Chen Chen said hesitantly, "Senior Sister... Did we go the wrong way? This... Behind the main hall... Why is there such a huge lake?"
What the three of them saw was an enormous lake. At this moment, there were no ripples on the surface of the lake. A gentle breeze blew past, and the surface of the lake rippled. However, there was no sunlight or moonlight. There were no folds of light. There were also no mountains to be seen. There were no reflections of the mountains. Otherwise … it would have been a beautiful lake!
However, not far from the main hall, by the lakeside, there were a few small pavilions hidden in the greenery...
"Let's go, maybe in those pavilions... we'll find something!" Chen Chen shouted.
Peacock thought for a moment and turned to Yuyan. "Sister Yuyan, I'll have to trouble you... Please wait at the front. If there's anyone who's not skilled enough to barge in, just stab him to death with your sword. If... you can't stop them..."
Before she could finish, she shook her head. "Forget it, forget it. If it's just a normal person, the leader might not care. If it's the Great Master Chang Geng and the others, the leader will definitely see them... You're useless here!"
Then, she pointed at the small boats on the lake and smiled. "I thought that the divine mansion was filled with immortals. I didn't think that... even immortals have the mood to enjoy their leisure time!"
"Hahaha." The three of them laughed as if they had forgotten that they were in the divine mansion. They used their Qinggong to jump down from the main hall and rushed to the small boat by the lake!
Who knew... When they got on the boat, the three of them realized that the boat did not have any paddles. It was just a wooden plank!
"How are we going to steer the boat?" Peacock and the others looked at each other.
When they were in the main hall, there were black clouds under their feet. As long as they lifted their feet, the clouds would fly by themselves. Could it be that this boat was the same?
But when they walked back and forth a few steps, the boat did not move at all.
"Essential energy ~" Peacock seemed to understand and whispered. "Maybe... it's like internal energy. Let's try using essential energy?"
Sure enough, when the three of them sent essential energy into the boat, it swayed slightly and really moved. The direction was not anywhere else but the pavilion by the lake!
"Hehe, alright. Other than the three sects, don't even think about the Righteous Alliance and the other martial arts sects!" Chen Chen did not forget to gloat!
"Mm, that's right. If we didn't get the inheritance at Lingxiang Peak and have some essential energy in our meridians... I'm afraid that even if we got on the boat, we wouldn't be able to come here!" Yuyan nodded.
"Haha, I don't think so. If there were paddles or something like that, maybe we could steer the boat!" Peacock looked at the lake and smiled.
"Who would come to Immortal Abode for paddles?" Chen Chen snorted. "It's better to bring more weapons!"
"Hahaha, that's right ~" The other two laughed.
While the three of them were talking, the boat quickly approached the shore.
There were many large trees planted on the shore. The leaves were lush and green, but Peacock and the rest had never seen these trees before. They could smell a strange fragrance but they could not see where it came from!
After walking for a hundred feet, they saw a rather large pond in a spacious area. There were some things that looked like lotus leaves in the pond. There were about a dozen budding lotus flowers standing upright...
Beside the pond, there were about a dozen pavilions of different styles. They were clearly separated on both sides of the pond!
Peacock and the rest glanced at the things in the pond and focused on the pavilion at the front.
This was a small three-story building. Its style was similar to the pavilions at Lingxiang Peak, but the decorations were very ancient... Many of them were things that Peacock and the rest had never seen before...
