After I reminded him, the eldest senior brother finally reacted. He immediately stood up, took a deep breath, looked around and said with doubt, ”It seems that we are really in the right. The person who set up this underground palace is clearly an expert in the Dao arts. It won't be easy for the two of us to leave this place alive.”

”Why don't we go and see if it's because we were too concentrated on running and didn't see the mystery here. If we go up again, we might be able to discover the crux of this tunnel.” I suggested to the eldest senior brother.

As long as it's a formation, it will definitely have an eye. As long as we find the eye of the formation, we can break through the formation, and then we can walk out. We'll walk back and forth, and see if we can find any clues. As the Eldest Senior Brother spoke, he lifted up his peach wood sword. The two of us walked slowly along this seemingly endless path. Each of us walked to one side, heading towards the front.

We each held a powerful flashlight in our hands. As we walked, we carefully observed every nook and cranny.

After passing by the corpses of the dark bandits, eldest senior brother and I walked for more than half an hour. I did not discover anything, and when I turned around to look at eldest senior brother, I found that he had gained nothing. What was even more tragic was that I saw the mural on the wall once again.

After walking for a distance, we saw the corpses lying on the ground.

Eldest Senior Brother and I really had no moves now. We sat on the ground dispiritedly and immediately felt a deep sense of despair.

When we found out that the situation here was not right, Big Senior and I wanted to turn back. However, once we entered the red door, we fell into a trap. If we wanted to leave, it would be even harder than ascending to the heavens.

It was very possible that those corpses died just like that. They were trapped here, unable to leave. After a long time, they were both thirsty and hungry, so they died here.

I shudder at the thought of myself becoming a desiccated corpse and then a bandit, a guardian tool of the tomb chamber.

This reminds me of the matter of the university teacher we met outside the construction site. He said that before the establishment of the school, this place was originally a monastery, but after some unknown situation, all of the Taoist cultivators in the temple suddenly disappeared, which is why the university was built in the temple ruins.

I feel that it is very possible that the Taoists from that Taoist temple went down into this underground palace. They didn't disappear, but they all died in this underground palace.

From the looks of this underground palace, it must have been quite long ago. It was unknown when that Taoist temple was built.

I think that Taoist priest definitely knows that there is such an underground palace. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come down here and built a Taoist temple on top of the underground palace. What exactly does that mean? Was he trying to borrow the Taoist temple's Righteous Qi to seal something in this underground palace?
