Chapter 1461: Underground Maze

Before Su Xuan arrived at the Jingyan Palace, Chu Nangong had preliminarily explored it and had his own calculations, but after all, he could not see the details beneath the Jingyan Palace as clearly as Su Xuan.

He only knew that the layout of the Jingyan Palace buildings corresponded to the stars of the Three Enclosures, Four Symbols, and Twenty-Eight Mansions.

At this moment, upon hearing Su Xuan's words and receiving a definitive answer, Chu Nangong could not help but sigh: "It is truly a work of supernatural craftsmanship!"

Mountains and rivers can change, but the stars are eternal.

With the help of starlight, as long as the formation beneath the ground still exists, the source of the formation's power will never be cut off.

In Chu Nangong's view, stars are things that exist from the beginning of time.

He actually does not know that stars also have a lifespan limit, but the lifespan of stars, compared to the lifespan of humans, is simply so long that it is boundless; treating them as eternal is not a problem.

Su Xuan, listening to Chu Nangong's words, could not help but think of the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions of the Qin world.

The Jingyan Palace uses the power of the Three Enclosures, Four Symbols, and Twenty-Eight Mansions to draw upon the power of the stars as the hub for the grand formation on the ground.

And the stars involved in the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions of the Qin world are not as extensive, involving only seven of the Twenty-Eight Mansions, representing the seven mansions of the Azure Dragon of the East. However, if used properly, the power of the seven mansions is actually more powerful than the power of the Three Enclosures, Four Symbols, and Twenty-Eight Mansions here.

After all, the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions of the Qin world came from the hands of the Yinglong Gengchen.

After thoroughly drawing down the power of the Azure Dragon Seven Mansions, it can even cause changes in time and space and open the door to another lost world.

That is a great divine power that shakes the heavens and the earth.

By comparison, the grand formation beneath the Jingyan Palace is merely a somewhat unique gathering-spirit formation.

Of course, even if it is a gathering-spirit formation, placed in this Wu Xia world, it is also an unimaginable miracle.

Without further evaluating the Jingyan Palace's grand formation, Su Xuan prepared to enter the interior of the Jingyan Palace for a look.

The main gate of the Jingyan Palace requires dozens of people to push open.

But for Su Xuan and Chu Nangong, it was a gate that could be pushed open with ease.

Because Chu Nangong had entered the Jingyan Palace to explore earlier, he led the way for the next part of the journey.

He stepped forward, placed his palm on the gate, and exerted a slight force. The vast power of heaven and earth poured into his body, turning into his own strength. In an instant, the gate was pushed open.

The strength of one person is insignificant, but the power of heaven and earth is extremely vast.

This is the strength of the Heaven-Man realm.

After stepping into the main hall of the Jingyan Palace, Chu Nangong led the way in front again. Soon, they passed through the main hall to the side hall on the left. The mechanism to open the entrance to the maze was hidden in the side hall on the left. After opening the mechanism, Chu Nangong led Su Xuan to the side hall on the right.

This is a very strange design. If one follows normal logic, the entrance to the maze should be hidden in the main hall, but the Jingyan Palace is not so. The so-called main hall only has special building materials; its true function, according to Su Xuan's guess, should be the location of the eye of the grand formation beneath the Jingyan Palace.

The mechanism and passage that truly lead to the underground maze are actually in the two side halls.

Chu Nangong also discovered the mystery here after exploring for a long time after arriving at the Jingyan Palace.

In the side hall on the right of the Jingyan Palace, as the mechanism in the side hall on the left was opened, nine passages suddenly appeared. The passages were arranged in the center of the hall, with three in each row. The passages were like vertical shafts. Looking from the edge, they were pitch black, and one did not know how deep they were.

"During this time, I don't know how many times I have come here, and I can be considered to have preliminarily explored this place. Of these nine entrances, eight are fake, filled with all kinds of mechanisms, and there are many skeletons; they should all be people who mistakenly entered and died inside. Only one passage is safe. Unfortunately, I have never been able to go further and step into the God of War Hall mentioned by Lord Xuantian."

The maze beneath the Jingyan Palace is not safe; it is full of mechanisms and holds many dangers.

For ordinary experts, and even powerhouses at the Grandmaster level, if they are not careful, these mechanisms are enough to be fatal.

Su Xuan and Chu Nangong jumped down. They did not know how long they descended, but when they landed, they had already arrived in an underground hall.

This hall was much more magnificent and vast than the main hall of the Jingyan Palace.

Although there were no lamps, Su Xuan could see the entire environment around him clearly.

He saw a huge circle on one side of the wall, carved with many patterns and designs. It was a star map. Within the circle, stars were scattered like chess pieces, full of star points. Among them, more than a dozen were disproportionately large. Besides the Five Planets and the Sun and Moon, there were also some stars never recorded in the classics. These larger stars were listed with lines of varying thickness, showing their running trajectories in the sky, forming one overlapping circle after another, which was quite beautiful.

Besides some stars recorded in the classics, there were also many stars not seen in the records. On the edge of the star map circle, different degrees and strange names were carved, which were also unheard of.
