Chapter 72 Launching
When the ship's plank suddenly cracked under my feet, Zhao Zhuang shouted at the top of his lungs: "We're here! We've rushed to the shore!"
"Jump--" I rushed towards the bow of the boat, holding the ghost tripod in my hand, and smashed both myself and the tripod into the water.
After the ghost cauldron sank into the water, it seemed to be pulled by some kind of force, dragging the warlock behind it and rushing towards the mountain wall.
My bet was right!
At first, I thought there should be nine ghost cauldrons. Eight of them were taken out of the underground palace, and the remaining one must still be somewhere in the underground palace. The last ghost cauldron that could not be brought out should be the main cauldron.
.
It is common knowledge in the art that a set of magical instruments can echo each other. The main cauldron will definitely be able to pull the eight ghost cauldrons back to their original positions.
The location where we dived was not the water nest where Wang Li committed suicide, but a place not far from the water nest. I didn’t dare to dive from the water nest at first because I was afraid that the undercurrent below would take me somewhere else.
place.
Facts have proved that my judgment was correct. After Mrs. Wang Li jumped into the water, she was probably brought to my current position by the undercurrent, and then entered the water nest by chance. In other words, she was originally from the underwater underground palace.
people.
If I want to enter the underground palace, I must have something to point out the correct path. Wang Li can't help me. Tying the ghost cauldron to my body and following the ghost cauldron is the only way to pass through the underwater undercurrent.
As I followed the ghost tripod forward with all my strength, the underwater undercurrent began to become more and more strange.
The force of the water flow was like that of dozens of masters, pushing their palms towards me from all directions. The invisible force formed a giant underwater net that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, almost killing people at every step.
As the ghost cauldron dragged us through the murderous water at high speeds, my chest began to feel tight. I knew that as long as my physical strength was a little weak and I couldn't keep up with the speed of the ghost cauldron, I would be dead. I knew that the road ahead was dangerous.
Even if you want to test, you have to give it a try.
A moment later, I saw a ghost cauldron quickly pass by me. What was pulled by the rope on the cauldron was not a warlock, but a severed human hand.
Someone was torn apart by the underwater undercurrent because he couldn't keep up with the speed of the ghost tripod!
It was too late to see who the dead person was, so I raised my hand to grab the severed arm and moved forward quickly under the guidance of the two ghost cauldrons.
In the blink of an eye, I saw two ghost tripods heading straight for an underwater rock wall to collide with each other.
Not long after the loud noise of metal and stone colliding could be heard, two ghost cauldrons were already embedded in the mountain wall. In the next moment, eight ghost cauldrons flew in and hit the mountain wall one after another. Add me
The four remaining warlocks were also brought to the rock.
I suddenly opened my eyes underwater - I didn't see the last ghost cauldron! Could it be that I made a miscalculation?
I felt a chill in my heart when I saw a black shadow of a dragon slowly floating on the opposite rock.
It was obviously just a shadow, but it felt like a black dragon was crossing the rocks and rushing to the bottom of the water, and we were blocking the only way for the black dragon to get out of the water.
If I don't hide away, the black dragon will approach, and I will definitely bear the brunt of it, unable to escape.
When Lao Liutou swam hard and tried to push me aside, I pressed his arm tightly and blocked him from behind. I looked directly at the black shadow in the water and stayed there.
The next moment, the mountain wall in front of me was like a piece of glass that had been hit hard from the inside, suddenly bursting from the inside out, and a three-meter-wide dragon head followed the cracked stones and impacted towards me.
While I closed my eyes tightly, I firmly held down Lao Liu, who wanted to save me, and together we faced the black dragon that was charging madly at me.
The severe pain I imagined being torn apart by the black dragon did not happen. After the water flow whipped up by the biting wind passed over my body, there was also an irresistible suction force in front of me.
The river water around me was suddenly pulled into the mountain wall, and I was involuntarily swept forward. I couldn't tell how far I was swept away by the water. After that, the water flow around me suddenly slowed down, and I followed suit.
Slowly floated to the surface of the water.
When I popped my head out of the water, the first thing I saw was a staircase leading into the distance.
Underwater underground palace!
Is this the underwater underground palace I've been looking for?
Three warlocks beside me poked their heads out one after another, Lao Liutou, Zhao Zhuang, and Ding Zhong.
We are the only ones who can enter the underwater underground palace.
I gave them a careful sign, and tentatively climbed to the shore myself. After walking a short distance along the stairs, I saw a giant cauldron half as tall as a man, with the head of a ferocious ghost painted on it.
This is the last ghost tripod.
I searched around the Ghost Cauldron for a while and sure enough I saw eight empty nests.
In the beginning, someone took away the eight ghost tripods from here, and the gathering of the nine tripods was the key to opening the underground palace.
Zhao Zhuang, who was following me, subconsciously asked in a low voice: "Mr. Li, shall I go into the water to look for the Eight Cauldrons?"
I squinted my eyes and looked at the ghost cauldron up and down for a long time, then I took out my knife and struck the cauldron a few times: "This is not the real main cauldron. The sound alone is wrong. The main cauldron should be pulling the eight cauldrons in this direction.
