The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 892 Has the self-destruct device been activated? (2 updates)
Xie Xuzhi was both amused and exasperated by the little paper doll's behavior.

If he were such a fragile and sentimental person, he would have died countless times by now.

However, Xie Xuzhi still felt indebted to the little paper doll, as it was rare to encounter such a close "person" to him.

At this moment, Xie Xuzhi was completely unaware that the little paper doll's closeness to him was not entirely due to their friendship.

More importantly, Xie Xuzhi possessed the aura of the Heavenly Thunder Token and had formed a Heavenly Bond with Yun Ran, so the little paper doll subconsciously wanted to get close to him.

Long Ling and the Special Administration Bureau discussed for a long time, but they couldn't come up with any useful solutions.

One of them sighed and said, "If only we could find out where this hidden weapon came from."

Xie Xuzhi finally spoke: "I think I know what this is."

All eyes immediately turned to them.

Being stared at by a dozen pairs of eyes like that would definitely make anyone without a bit of self-control start to feel a little flustered.

But none of this had any effect on Xie Xuzhi.

"I remember reading in an ancient book that the bones of ancient monsters, if used as the core of a mechanical array, would be incredibly powerful."

If this weren't the central area of ​​the Death Mountain, nor a place where many powerful demons, or even demon kings, had appeared, Xie Xuzhi might not have made the connection.

Upon hearing the words "ancient monsters".

Someone suddenly cried out in pain; it turned out they were so shocked that they bit their tongue.

The man's face immediately turned bright red; this was too embarrassing.

He was doomed. He could even imagine his friends teasing him like this: "Hey, Tongue-Biting Bro's back!"
Just imagining this scene made the young man suddenly want to find a hole to crawl into and bury himself.

Waaah, this is so embarrassing.

How could he be so spineless? It's just an ancient ferocious beast, what's so special about it?!

Fortunately, at this time, everyone's attention was focused on the ancient ferocious beast, so they let him go for the time being.

Before Long Ling could react, the little paper figure also let out a soft "Ah!"

“Ancient ferocious beast, I know, I know. That Rong Gu who could fight my master before, once sealed the spirit of an ancient ferocious beast on her arm!”

It's quite normal that the spirits of ancient ferocious beasts have been preserved, and that their bones have also been preserved.

What the little paper doll didn't mention was that its master's 'family heirloom' book also contained the sealed spirits of many ferocious beasts, as well as quite a few evil spirits.

However, these things are not something that can be obtained simply by having the ability and skills; one also needs sufficient background and resources to acquire them.

Some of the sealed beings in the book were sealed by Master Huaiyi, but most of them were sealed by the seniors of Qingfeng Temple.

The elders of Qingfeng Temple did not indiscriminately slaughter those ferocious beasts and evil spirits, unless they were beyond redemption.

The rest of the people at Qingfeng Temple would give those ferocious beasts and evil spirits a chance to repent, and sealing and imprisoning them would be a punishment for their wrongdoings.

If they can repent and reform themselves, they will have another chance to be reincarnated.

Of course, if those guys remain unrepentant, they will be sealed away forever until they are completely destroyed.

The little paper figure's thoughts are infinitely divergent.

But just as Long Ling was speaking, the little paper doll's thoughts were pulled back.

"It's a pity that Aunt Rong is already dead, otherwise we could still ask her."

Long Ling naturally assumed that he could get the information he wanted to know by asking.

As a result, he saw the little paper figure roll its eyes at him.

What are you thinking? Rong Gu hates its master to death. The dragon spirit has such a good relationship with its master, so it will definitely be taken out on Rong Gu.

Not to mention, Long Ling directly swallowed the fire dragon that Rong Gu had sealed on her arm. It's a miracle that Rong Gu didn't try to kill Long Ling. It was at this moment that the little paper doll suddenly felt that Long Ling didn't seem very smart.

Fortunately, Rong Gu is dead.

Otherwise, the little paper doll was really worried that Long Ling would go to Rong Gu's door to ask for something and get punished.

Long Ling was unaware that the little paper figure was thinking about him, but he did see the little paper figure roll its eyes.

A wave of speechlessness washed over me.

This tiny magical artifact has become sentient, yet it dares to act arrogantly in front of the Dragon King! It wants to get its comeuppance!

"You come here right now, and try rolling your eyes at me again!"

Little paper doll: ……

Do you think it's stupid? It's a magical artifact that has become a spirit, not a stupid person who has become a spirit. Even a dog wouldn't go near it!

Long Ling snorted coldly. Fine, he'd let it go for Yun Ran's sake; he was being magnanimous.

"If there really are bones of ancient monsters here, then this could be quite troublesome."

As long as it is the spirit form of a demon beast that appears, the Dragon Spirit will not find it so troublesome.

This being, born and raised by nature, has never cultivated a true physical form. Whenever he reveals his true form, it is merely a solidified illusion.

However, the bones of ancient demonic beasts indicate that these were physical demonic beasts, which were not easy to deal with.

Although they had defeated some powerful demons before, these powerful demons now are incomparable to the ancient monsters.

Give the simplest example.

The current demon king seems to have some ability, but compared to the ancient demon beasts, he's just a piece of trash.

Especially in the past few hundred years since the decline of the Xuanmen sect, both the people of the Xuanmen sect and the demon beasts have become much weaker.

The way of Heaven weakened their strength at the same time, which may also be a kind of balance in the way of Heaven.

Long Ling was undoubtedly the person most familiar with ancient monsters among everyone present.

His words naturally carry a certain degree of authority.

"No wonder we felt that fire was very strange when we were in the first secret passage. Now it seems that there must be the bones of ancient monsters in there!"

But what's most infuriating is that this formation, set up with ancient beast bones, is specifically designed to target magical artifacts.

Isn't this forcing them to charge forward empty-handed?

But if even magical artifacts can't withstand the attack, how can flesh and blood possibly do the same?

"The fact that this place can be protected using such methods further demonstrates the extreme importance of the central control point for this underground palace."

Perhaps what's inside will be very useful to us, and it will also be a great blow to those men in black robes.

Just when everyone felt that they had to find a way to solve this troublesome problem no matter what,

"boom!"

From deep within the secret passage, a sound of something collapsing suddenly came.

The crowd's expressions changed; they had checked, and these secret passages were all reinforced.

Even if they used all the mystical methods to destroy these secret passages, it would be extremely difficult.

But now, this sound of collapse is definitely not a good thing.

"Could it be that the arrays of two secret passages were activated in succession, thus triggering the self-destruct mechanism?"
