Purgatory

Chapter 61 Mirror Tunnel
At the bottom of the crystal clear lake, a magnificent city reappeared in the world.

3000 years passed like a passing time, taking away all the creatures in the city, leaving only the city still standing in an unknown place.

"The ancient city of 3000 yuan disappeared!"

Pang Jian was shocked, and looked at the city under the lake in amazement, unable to believe that the city had suddenly disappeared.

It stands quietly at the bottom of the lake, as if untouched by the long time, the streets are clean and new, and the smooth walls are spotless.

It came from the second realm above, and once stood in the depths of the sky, why did it suddenly reappear in Wulan Lake after 3000 years?

"Strange fog!"

Pang Jian's horrified eyes moved from the sudden wonder at the bottom of the lake to the still thick gray mist.

Is it the "strange fog" that diffuses from the boundary wall, presenting an ancient city that has disappeared in the long river of time, and projecting it on the bottom of Wulan Lake?

"Don't act rashly!"

The Tianling Pagoda was suspended in the air unsteadily, and Luo Hongyan was screaming in panic.

Pang Jian looked back and saw that the white tower had floated to the top of his head, he was secretly surprised.

Unexpectedly, she actually had the ability to restore the operation of the White Tower with the help of the uneven spirit stones.

"call!"

Under the eyes of Pang Jian and Zhou Qingchen, the swaying white pagoda slowly floated upwards.

Luo Hongyan's beautiful figure appeared from the window on the fifth floor of the White Tower. She overlooked Wulan Lake from a high altitude, and her bright eyes revealed light of deep thought.

Pang Jian looked at her and found that when she was thinking, there were many small spots of light in her eyes.

Zhou Qingchen, who was still in shock because of the sudden appearance of the ancient city that had disappeared for many years, didn't pay attention to Luo Hongyan, and kept looking at the unknown city under the lake.

"The strange fog stopped, and a city that had disappeared for many years appeared out of thin air at the bottom of the lake."

Luo Hongyan murmured.

She controlled the white tower, drifted above the island in the center of the lake, and looked at the bottom of the lake from different angles.

The shaking white tower became more and more stable.

At this time, she only needs to let the White Tower sink and bring Pang Jian and the two up, and then she can leave the weird Wulan Lake and avoid the "strange fog" from spreading again.

But she didn't do that.

After she observed for a while, the White Tower stayed in the distance again. She jumped out of the window like Pang Jian did, and landed in front of Pang Jian and Pang Jian with a light and ethereal figure.

"Zhou Qingchen, how much do you know about Bagua City?" she asked.

Zhou Qingchen thought for a while, and said: "I only know that this is an ancient city belonging to the Second Realm. It was originally located in a part of the Second Realm adjacent to the boundary wall. Disappear."

He was a little ashamed, and said: "I have never been to the second realm, and I don't know anything else."

Han Duping and Su Meng came to find it. When the White Tower was lifted into the sky, they also saw the magical city under the lake, and they were also shocked.

"Before the Bagua City below disappears, the strange fog should not continue to approach us."

Luo Hongyan pondered for a long time, and said reluctantly: "Someone told me that when there is a mirage-like spectacle near the mist, there will often be a mirror tunnel."

She hesitated and said: "There will be a mirror tunnel on the surface of Wulan Lake. The Bagua City also exists, but it is not at the bottom of the lake below us. I don't know where it is. I can tell you. That is... through the mirror tunnel formed by Wulan Lake, you should be able to go to the real Bagua City."

"Mirror tunnel?"

This unfamiliar word confused everyone, even the well-informed Han Duping didn't understand why.

"Well, it's a mirror tunnel. After this kind of thing happens, not only the Cenji Mountains in the Fourth Realm, but also certain forbidden places in the Third Realm, and even weird areas in the Second Realm may form similar mirror tunnels."

"The existence of the mirror tunnel allows everyone to go to Bagua City to explore the truth about the disappearance of this city."

"However, after entering, everyone needs to face many uncertainties in the city, and will encounter people from other worlds in the city."

Luo Hongyan looked solemn, and she was also a little confused, worried that Pang Jian would insist on going.

"There are mysteries hidden in the Bagua City, you can regard the appearance of the mirror tunnel as a trial, but your opponents come from different levels." Luo Hongyan sighed softly, and said: "You in the fourth realm, when you meet People who go to the other two worlds, I'm afraid..."

She shook her head.

Zhou Qingchen, Han Duping, and Su Meng all looked strange, all of them were aroused by her words.

Pang Jian said directly: "What is the state of our opponent?"

"The mirror tunnel has an upper limit. Since it appears in the fourth realm, the upper limit is the marrow washing level. The people you can meet cannot exceed the marrow washing level." Luo Hongyan said affirmatively.

"The strongest is the Marrow Cleansing Realm?"

Pang Jian took a breath, his eyes gradually became blazing.

Seeing his appearance, Luo Hongyan sighed secretly, knowing that he might not be able to stop him.

Zhou Qingchen couldn't help smiling wryly, and said, "Pang Jian, the marrow-washing realm of the third realm and the marrow-washing realm of the second realm are not the same concept as our marrow-washing realm here. Their exercises, utensils, all kinds of The resources are simply beyond what we can imagine."

Pang Jian nodded, understanding what he was worried about.

According to what Zhou Qingchen said, there are many geniuses in Hongshan who surpassed him in the third realm, and there will only be more and more perverted geniuses in the second realm.

Those people in the upper two worlds who were in the marrow washing realm, they have never been able to compare with the skills they have cultivated and the hardships they have suffered since childhood.

It would definitely not be a pleasant thing to meet such a character in the unknown Bagua City.

Luo Hongyan had no choice but to express his position again, and said softly: "Pang Jian, if you want to go, I would like to accompany you to Bagua City."

"What's in Bagua City?" Zhou Qingchen wondered.

Luo Hongyan said indifferently: "There are things that Hongshan can never give you."

Zhou Qingchen's eyes showed a strange light, and he grinned strangely: "I am also in the marrow washing state, and I want to enter the Bagua City to take a look. I missed this opportunity, and I don't know when I will meet again in the future!"

"I..." Su Meng looked at Luo Hongyan timidly, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Ning, if you go, can you... bring me too?"

"You are too weak, I think I should use the Tianling Pagoda to send you away from Wulan Lake directly." Luo Hongyan said indifferently.

"I want to avenge my father. Dong Tianze is too powerful. If I didn't have an adventure, I would never be able to do it in my life." Su Meng begged with a small round face.

"Dong Tianze appeared at the bottom of the lake for a moment, he might have gone to Bagua City!" Zhou Qingchen suddenly remembered this, and shouted: "He seemed to be shrunk in one of the tortoise feet of the black turtle before, and he hasn't been in Bagua City yet." Before showing up, he was at the bottom of the lake."

Zhou Qingchen described Dong Tianze's abnormal state at that time.

Before he finished describing, Pang Jian said: "I will enter Bagua City."

Luo Hongyan, who had known this would happen earlier, had no recourse in her beautiful eyes, and she didn't bother to persuade her, but said: "Su Meng, do you want me to send you away?"

Su Meng shook her head vigorously.

"Well."

Luo Hongyan nodded, pointed to the white tower, and said to Pang Jian: "At the bottom of the tower, those spiritual stones I spread out earlier are temporarily useless. You go to absorb the spiritual power inside, and use your fastest speed , and opened up four veins connecting the soles of the feet."

"And I will find the mirror tunnel in the lake for everyone, and find a way to get to Bagua City."

"Pang Jian is a powerful force for us, those spirit stones...give him strength, do you have any opinions?"

As soon as she heard that she no longer forced herself to leave, Su Meng hurriedly said: "I have no objection!"

Zhou Qingchen, who started to get excited, shrugged and grinned, "There should be no shortage of spirit stones in Bagua City!"

The corner of Luo Hongyan's mouth turned into a sneer, and he glanced at him casually with the eyes of a country bumpkin, and said: "There are many legends about the Bagua City in the second world, and each legend is accompanied by a dazzling array of cultivation materials. .”

Zhou Qingchen laughed loudly, pushed Pang Jian, and urged: "Go to Tianling Pagoda quickly, don't waste everyone's precious time!"

Pang Jian immediately went to the White Tower.

"You guys prepare it yourself, I'll find the entrance to the Bagua City."

Luo Hongyan moved lightly on the island in the center of the lake, she did not fall towards the crystal-like lake surface, but dangled around the edge of the island.

"Boy Zhou, let's talk alone."

Han Duping pulled Zhou Qingchen aside, deliberately avoided Su Meng, and quietly expressed his doubts.

It is not quite right to say that "Miss Ning Jia" has become able to pick herbs and understand complex arrays.

"Well, I found out early on that something was wrong."

Zhou Qingchen nodded in understanding, and said, "It's okay, we just need to be careful. I just don't know how much of what she said about Bagua City is true."

"You can only verify the truth if you go in." Han Duping sighed, and said with a bitter face: "Have you thought it through clearly? How sure are you when you compete with guys from the third and second realms in Bagua City?" ?”

"I'm not sure, but I just want to give it a try. Bagua City is not in the depths of the mist, we are afraid of an egg!"

"Okay, I'll just accompany you!"

……

The bottom of the familiar White Tower.

Seeing that the previous spirit jade was replaced by spirit stones of different qualities, Pang Jian returned to his cultivation place at that time.

As soon as he entered the cultivation state, all distracting thoughts about Bagua City in his mind were instantly eliminated by him.

Wisps of spiritual power were mixed with many dross and impurities, and then flowed into his dantian, and began to be washed and refined round and round.

Compared with the previous ones, this trip was much inferior in terms of spiritual power and cleanliness.

But he also understands that this is already the current resources at hand, and it can do the best for him.

Without Lingyu to use, it would be difficult for Luo Hongyan's clever wife to make a living without rice. It is enough to bring the White Tower back to the sky.

……

Deep night fell again.

Everyone felt inexplicably depressed, as if there was an invisible shadow slowly covering the sky.

Ulan Lake, like a huge crystal, always shines brightly in this dark night of the Fourth Realm.

The light comes from Wulan Lake, and also from the Bagua City at the bottom of the lake.

In the entire Wulan Lake area, only the island is completely dark at the moment, and the Bagua City under the lake is brightly lit in such a gloomy atmosphere.

Zhou Qingchen, Han Duping, and Su Meng were observing the strange situation in Bagua City at the bottom of the lake.

Suddenly, they saw a spot of light as small as a mosquito, appearing suddenly on the edge of Bagua City.

The small spots of light are moving rapidly in the brightly lit Bagua City, and seem to be heading towards the center of the Bagua City along the street.

Some light spots collided with each other like a fierce battle, and sometimes some light spots went out instantly.

Zhou Qingchen raised his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice, "Someone has already gone in!"

He could see that those light spots were living beings like him, and they might come from the third realm, or even the second realm's cultivation prodigy.

The extinguishing of the light spot may mean that someone has left Bagua City, or it may be that someone died in it.
