A few days passed, and a large number of people had already gathered in this sea area near the Sea God Palace, densely packed in the sky like locusts passing through, making the already gloomy sky seem even more gloomy, with barely much sunlight coming through.
The thirteen major forces of the East Sea, no matter how far away they were, had all arrived here, and none of them were missing. The attraction of the Sea God Palace could not be said to be small, not only did the thirteen major forces gather, those small sects and even sect-less loose cultivators were even more numerous.
Another tsunami fell, and everyone arrived at the first temple within the Sea God Palace!
This magnificent temple had unknowingly killed many people, but it was also like a moat located here, blocking the connection between everyone and the interior of the Sea God Palace. Even though the people had been studying here for several days, expecting to find a way out to the next place, they never got anywhere.
Inside the pitch-black palace, the light was faint, and there was no longer the killing spirit that had once existed, acting cordial for the time being. Numerous people from all sides in the darkness around searching for passages, to and from many times, but the interior of the palace is really too dark, only as a light source of a dozen pieces of evil weapons are also introverted, the light does not spread out. The people tried to release the light, but the result could not leave the body, as if the interior of the palace can swallow the light.
There was no longer any fighting inside the palace, and naturally Ao Fan and Qing Qing walked in. They didn't come here for sightseeing, they also looked around to see where the road was. While the others searched in vain, Ao Fan found a strange place.
It was a palace wall that was crystal smooth to the touch, without a trace of roughness. But under Ao Fan's hands at the moment, the palace wall showed a different slightly concave phenomenon, which immediately attracted Ao Fan's attention.
It was very dark inside the palace, Ao Fan couldn't see what the veins on the palace wall were, and only felt that there might be a connection with the next passageway entrance, so he touched these veins and felt them carefully, wanting to figure out what these veins actually were.
After a long time, while the rest of the people were wailing and complaining because they couldn't find the entrance to the passageway, Ao Fan's eyes were flashing, and he felt that he seemed to have found the key to the matter.
He carefully felt the tattoo on the palace wall for a while and found that there were a total of sixteen figures forming a ring around it. These sixteen figures were each different, all of them were different patterns, but under Ao Fan's attentive touch, he still understood what the sixteen patterns expressed.
These sixteen patterns, what they expressed were all weapons. Because Ao Fan not only touched out the general shape of the weapon from the graphic pattern, but also felt a trace of extremely tiny but really existent sharpness, that was exactly what existed on the weapon.
"Any discovery?" Qing Qing, who had been beside him, seemed to have noticed the situation and turned her head to ask curiously.
Ao Fan withdrew his hand and said softly, "There is something fishy about this wall, the patterns on it are densely covered and very strange, it is likely to be the location of the passageway to continue deeper into the Sea God Palace."
Qing Qing also placed her hand on the palace wall when she heard this, her face appearing surprised. She was just about to say something, but Ao Fan had already turned around and walked over to an evil weapon that had fallen on the ground that no one was willing to approach, and bent down to pick it up.
"Stop!" Someone who was always keeping an eye on these Evil Weapons roared and flew in to stop Ao Fan.
This person belonged to one of the big forces. In order to prevent someone from moving the evil weapons and being controlled to go on a killing spree, the great powers had long had words to have some disciples guard the evil weapons and stop anyone who approached.
The person who blocked Ao Fan was a disciple of the first line island among the thirteen major forces, and was the best at speed to be able to stop Ao Fan in the first place. This was also due to Ao Fan's deliberate intention, otherwise would he have been stopped by a person whose cultivation was comparable to his when he used his full speed.
"What are you going to do?" The man, who could not be seen in the darkness, droned in his booming voice, causing the attention of many people in the palace to move over.
Ao Fan didn't say much, he wasn't a talkative person by nature, he simply said, "I seem to have found the entrance to the passageway, I have to try and see if it's correct."
The moment these words came out, there was an instant silence in the palace, and then everyone surged towards Ao Fan like a wave, but in the end, the only ones who stood in front of Ao Fan were the representatives of the thirteen major forces. More people were standing at the back, and the Dao breathing breath was very close.
"You really found the right intersection?" A representative of a great power asked, his voice thick and deep like a bell, shaking one's eardrums.
Ao Fan slightly sank his eyebrows and said, "I can't be sure if that's the case, I still need to experiment with these evil weapons."
As he touched the patterns on the palace walls, he was surprised to find that the evil weapons that fell to the ground in the palace were exactly sixteen in number, and each was different from the other, and amazingly similar to the patterns on the palace walls, so perhaps they were the key to unlocking the passageway.
He bent down and picked up an axe at his feet that glowed blood-red. No one stopped him this time, everything was left to him. Although the evil weapon seemed to be able to devour a person's nature, it would not kick in immediately, and it was not like the people present would care about the life and death of strangers. Qingqing, on the other hand, had confidence in Ao Fan, and how could a strong-minded person be swayed by an artefact.
Holding the blood red axe, Ao Fan immediately felt an extremely weak aura coming towards him. He didn't waste any time, and immediately came to the palace wall and pressed the axe in against the same engraved axe vein.
Immediately after, the axe was actually set into the palace wall, and the originally introverted light suddenly emanated, illuminating part of the surrounding environment. Immediately, the pattern on the palace wall was clearly presented in front of everyone, no one missed.
Everyone was overjoyed, the thirteen powers even immediately ordered the disciples to fetch the evil weapons to set the wall full. Not long after, sixteen different colours blossomed on the walls, misty and colourful, illuminating the darkness within the palace, bringing about a rainbow-like light.
Under the illumination of the coloured light, all the scenery within the palace appeared. It was empty and seemed to only contain those sixteen evil weapons, other than that, there was only the azure crystal-like palace wall, reflecting the coloured light, making this side of the palace filled with colourful light.
Under the eyes of the people's surprise, a door suddenly opened, as if the dusty shackles had been broken for a long time, and the magnificent light penetrated. Those sixteen evil weapons were indeed the key to open the next gate, only this tiny clue was overlooked by the people, but was detected by the attentive Ao Fan.
People in the palace looked out towards the newly appeared passageway, and could vaguely find an alabaster-like road extending all the way to the depths of the seabed, which would be the location that people would aspire to even more.
For the merit Ao Fan, many forces have come to appreciate people, there are also people who do not pay the slightest attention, such as a line of islands of people is the attitude of superior, not the slightest Ao Fan in the eyes. These people have different behaviours, but let Ao Fan have a better understanding of these forces.
