Chapter 670 Breaking the Door
The two oil lamps in the stone chamber emitted a dim light. Although it was not bright, it was enough to see things clearly.
The flame on the wick was still most of the time, occasionally it would slant to the left, occasionally it would slant to the right, and occasionally it would become thick and flat, like a piece of dough flattened by someone's hand.
After an unknown amount of time, Xuanying retracted the energy that was swirling in the air and making a faint, shrill buzzing sound, and finally completed the last move of the "Evil Spear Style", "Falling Sky Style".
The two oil lamps also went out, and the stone chamber became dark. Xuanying knew that this was because the flames on the wicks had lost their own energy to support them.
The evil-slaying spear that originally emitted a faint white light no longer glowed, probably because the 30% of the remaining power that the ancestor Xuan Nanwu had poured into it had been exhausted.
Although Xuanying's Force had broken through the sixth level of Reverse Waterfall, and was probably at the same level as his master, the Golden Knife and Black Sword, there was no light at all in this stone room, and everything was dark in front of him, unable to see anything.
He took out a lighter and blew it up, then stood up and lit two more oil lamps. The two oil lamps were also left in the stone chamber by Xuan Nanwu, but the oil inside was neither fish oil nor pine oil, but had a peculiar fragrance that Xuan Ying had never seen before.
He put Xuan Nanwu's letter and the essence of the "Luo Cangqiong Style" practice in his arms, and prepared to open the door of the stone chamber and go out.
Suddenly, he remembered the matter of the immortal treasure map of Shenwu. The word "half map" was mentioned in the letter left by the ancestor Xuan Nanwu in the stone chamber. It seems that what Mu Longguang said was not wrong. The ancestor did have half a map.
But there was nothing else in the stone room except a gun, two low tables, two oil lamps and a letter. Xuanying had searched twice before, but he didn't see any map at all.
Thinking that he was about to leave and might never come back, he looked again, but still found nothing.
I thought that although the ancestor mentioned the map in the letter, he did not specify that it was left here. Such an important thing must have been taken away by him.
Moreover, he only cared about shooting the evil spear and had no interest in the immortal treasure of Shenwu. Since he couldn't find it, he would stop looking for it.
He walked to the tightly closed stone door, raised his gun, and used the "Falling Sky Style". After three "bangs", the several-foot-thick stone door was pierced in an instant. When the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, a large hole half a foot high was revealed.
Xuanying held an oil lamp and walked out. He looked in the direction where Wu Dadan fainted, but he was not there. He thought that he must have escaped.
The stone chamber was completely isolated from the outside world, and he had no idea how long he had been in there.
Walking along the tunnel towards the entrance of the underground dark room, I gradually smelled a disgusting stench. As I got closer, I found a person lying at the entrance, and the stench was coming from him.
Judging from the clothes and figure of the deceased, it was that Wu Dadan. I didn't expect him to die here, and his body was already stinking. It seemed that I had been in the stone chamber for quite a while.
The entrance to the tunnel was blocked by a huge rock, and Wu Dabing was unable to get out. He must have died of starvation and thirst here.
Xuan Ying shook his head and lightly kicked Wu Dadan's body away. Then he used the Force to attack the huge rock blocking the entrance with the Evil-Shooting Gun.
After a dozen hits, the boulder was broken into pieces and fell down with a bang, revealing the dim light of the torch.
Xuanying tiptoed and flew out.
When Xuanying learned that he had been in the underground dark room of the old house for twenty-two days, he was almost a little bit unbelievable.
He just finished all the food brought by Mu Longguang's servants, drank two large bowls of soup, and then put down his bowl and chopsticks.
When asked by Mu Longguang whether he had found "half a map", he simply answered "no" without giving any further explanation.
Mu Longguang saw Xuanying's cold eyes, and the light in them became brighter, and it was obvious that his Force had improved again.
He exhaled heavily through his nose, not daring to ask any more questions, and only said lightly, "Congratulations, General Xuan, for finally getting the evil spear from Emperor Xuanzong."
Xuanying nodded to him, said "goodbye", took the evil-killing gun, stood up and left. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said to Mu Longguang: "General Mu, thank you for your guidance in getting the evil-killing gun. One day, you can ask me to do something for you to repay this favor."
Mu Longguang waved his hand and said, "This is something we agreed on. General Xuan doesn't have to return the favor."
Xuan Ying said nothing, turned around and continued to walk out of the house. But he heard Mu Longguang say another sentence, "General Xuan, I see that your master has a golden knife and a black sword, and he is not a decent person. You still need to be careful..."
