Chapter 460: Strange Underground Palace (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Everyone continued to advance into the depths of the underground palace.
Apart from Xiao Shi sensing the abnormality, the others all trusted Xiang Zizhen. They felt that with a Martial Demon Realm expert like Xiang Zizhen, even if they encountered danger in the underground palace, the other party could easily resolve it.
Only Xiao Shi was filled with vigilance. After they advanced for a distance again, they successfully entered another stone room. However, there was no stone chest in this stone room. It seemed very empty.
“There doesn’t seem to be any treasure here.” Everyone looked around. They were a little disappointed.
However, after Xiao Shi entered the stone room, the first thing he saw was many profound and obscure array patterns on the wall of the stone room. As the others did not have night vision like him, they did not immediately discover the array patterns on the wall.
Other than Xiao Shi, only Xiang Zizhen discovered the array patterns on the wall when he entered the stone room.
“This is an extremely profound array pattern.” Xiao Shi narrowed his eyes. Even with his current comprehension of array formations, he felt that these array patterns were very profound.
The other jailers gradually approached the wall. They also discovered the array patterns on the wall. However, they basically knew nothing about array formations and could not understand these array patterns at all. They could only look at Xiang Zizhen inquisitively. “Warden, what array pattern is this?” Someone asked.
Xiang Zizhen stared at the array patterns on the wall very seriously. Although he was not good at array formations, it was not impossible for him to understand with his cultivation and horizons.
“These array patterns… should be a portion of the array formation that exists in this underground palace!” Xiang Zizhen said in a low voice.
As soon as they entered the underground palace, their spiritual senses were greatly suppressed. This was clearly something that only a powerful array formation could do. When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement. Their eyes lit up. They immediately realized the astonishing value of these array patterns.
After all, such an array formation… was extremely rare. Its value was completely incomparable to the treasures in the previous stone room. If they could record these array patterns and bring them out, it would definitely be a huge gain!
This made everyone’s hearts burn. They immediately began to record the array patterns here.
Xiao Shi was also seriously checking these array patterns. However, he did not need to record the array patterns through some items like others. The scene he saw now was directly transmitted to the main body in the distance. It made the main body stop everything he was doing. He focused on memorizing and interpreting these array patterns.
Although these array patterns were extremely profound, it was not impossible to interpret. He just needed some time.
Xiao Shi glanced at Xiang Zizhen calmly. He realized that Xiang Zizhen actually let these jailers record the array patterns here and did not stop them. In his opinion, since Xiang Zizhen was using them as cannon fodder, he should not waste time here. This made him even more confused about Xiang Zizhen’s actions.
Judging from Xiang Zizhen’s soul fluctuation, he was not anxious at all.
Apart from Xiao Shi, the old prisoner beside him did not seem to expect Xiang Zizhen to stop here. Although his expression was normal and he did not speak, his gaze stopped on Xiang Zizhen. Through the soul seal condensed in Xiang Zizhen’s mind, he felt a weak soul fluctuation that was constantly entering his mind.
“Could this be… a voice transmission?” Xiao Shi thought of a rare and powerful method. From the current situation, it was very likely that the old prisoner was sending a voice transmission to Xiang Zizhen.
Unfortunately, Xiao Shi could not hear the voice transmission between the two through the soul seal. Moreover, there were no changes in their expressions. It was impossible to deduce their conversation from their expressions.
Although he did not know what Xiang Zizhen was thinking, giving them time to record the array patterns was very beneficial to Xiao Shi. Coincidentally, he was studying the Soul Imprisonment Array and had fallen into a predicament. The array patterns here might be able to enlighten him and let him complete the strengthening of the Soul Imprisonment Array.
In the case of research conducted through the main body, Xiao Shi’s avatar did not need to think too much. He only needed to feed the content and information he saw to the main body. This allowed him to keep an eye on Xiang Zizhen and the old prisoner while checking these array patterns.
He realized Xiang Zizhen did not record these array patterns. He was purely waiting for the jailers to record it. As there was no one among these jailers who was proficient in array formations, they were very slow in recording the array patterns. Moreover, everyone could only record a portion. They could not record all the array patterns.
While they were recording, Xiao Shi had already completed the interpretation of some of the array patterns. From this, he obtained a lot of inspiration from the array formation. If he could decipher all the array patterns here, he might be able to use the array formation in this underground palace.
At that time, even if he encountered danger in the underground palace, he would have a powerful method to protect his life.
After the many jailers finished recording the array patterns, they left the stone room and continued deeper.
One gain after another made these jailers energetic. They had more expectations for the treasures in the depths of the underground palace.
As a result, they all let down their guard..
