Chapter 1365

"He longs for freedom and wants to leave this closed place. For this... he can kill anyone who stops him."

Hearing these words.

The four looked at each other.

They read the same worry in each other's eyes.

Hu Bayi clenched his fists.

"It seems that we not only have to find a way to free you, but also have to guard against your other half."

Wang Kaixuan swallowed his dry saliva.

"But how can we tell which one is the real Qilian?"

Huo Jilin's eyes were firm.

"In any case, we must act first, time waits for no one."

Shirley Yang gently helped Qilian up.

"Then look for it, maybe we can find clues in these ruins."

Huo Jilin's eyes swept around the main tomb.

Finally stopped at a mechanism in a corner.

He squatted down.

Carefully observed the intricate patterns and devices.

After a few minutes of contemplation.

He reached out.

Pressed an almost inconspicuous stone button.

With a slight click.

The entire coffin pedestal began to slowly sink.

In the dust.

Everyone held their breath.

Watching the changes.

Hu Bayi tightly grasped the military shovel in his hand.

His eyes were firm.

"Master Huo, how did you know to press this?"

Huo Jilin stood up.

He brushed off the dust on his clothes.

"Experience tells me that in tombs with complex structures like this, there are often hidden mechanisms."

Wang Kaixuan circled around the new passage that was exposed after the sinking.

"It looks like we have to go down and take a look."

Shirley Yang carefully supported Qi Lian, who still looked a little weak.

"How do you feel? Can you walk?"

Qi Lian took a deep breath.

His face was still pale but his tone was firm.

"No problem."

Huo Jilin took the lead in entering the newly exposed passage.

His steps were steady.

In the narrow space.

The light was dim.

But it was enough for people to recognize the surrounding environment.

They walked carefully among the moss-covered stone walls.

"Here... something seems to be wrong."

Hu Bayi followed closely behind.

His brows were furrowed.

Wang Kaixuan also felt something strange.

"Yeah, why is it getting colder?"

Huo Jilin did not answer.

He just kept moving forward.

Until they came to a smaller space.

Everyone was stunned.

Qilian stood there.

His eyes were glowing red.

The whole person exuded a strange aura.

"Qilian?"

Shirley Yang exclaimed.

But was stopped by Huo Jilin.

"Don't get close!"

Huo Jilin's eyes were like knives.

He stared at the red-eyed Qilian warily.

That Qilian seemed to be performing some kind of ritual.

He set up a forbidden formation.

In the center of the formation was an open coffin.

In the coffin lay a corpse quietly - it was undoubtedly Princess Huayang.

Qi Lian held a ball of black mist in his hand - it was the soul that possessed Shirley Yang.

"Is this your real purpose?"

Huo Jilin asked coldly.

Qi Lian did not answer.

He just smiled and slowly led the black mist to the princess's body.

"I want to revive her, and then kill her again in front of Nanxu."

Hu Bayi clenched the shovel in his hand.

"You are really stubborn!"

Wang Kaixuan also understood the seriousness of the situation.

"Qi Lian, calm down!"

But at this moment.

The entire forbidden array began to emit a dazzling light.

The soul came into contact with the princess's body.

Huo Jilin knew that time was running out.

"Quick! Find the core of the array!"

The four people acted separately.

In the chaos and depression, they looked for a way to lift the forbidden array.

However, Qi Lian seemed to have expected them to do so.

A smug smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Huo Jilin's eyes were like lightning.

Sweeping the forbidden formation set up by Qilian.

Under his leadership.

The four people quickly dispersed.

No corner was spared.

Wang Kaixuan's fingers touched an extremely cold stone wall.

His heart moved.

Pushed hard.

"Here! There is a mechanism!"

Wang Kaixuan shouted loudly.

Hu Bayi came over after hearing the sound.

The two pressed the stone wall together.

With a slight sound.

The seemingly solid stone wall slowly moved away.

Revealing a hidden small room.

Huo Jilin immediately determined that this was the core of the forbidden formation.

"Quick! Destroy it!"

Huo Jilin ordered.

Hu Bayi did not hesitate.

Waving the shovel and hitting the core.

With a burst of dust.

The forbidden formation began to collapse.

The dazzling light gradually dimmed.

At the same time.

The smug smile on Qilian's face froze.

The soul of taking life and HuaThe connection between Princess Yang's body was suddenly cut off.

The black mist scattered and drifted.

Disappeared in the air.

"You..."

Qi Lian looked at them palely.

"I just want revenge..."

Huo Jilin stood in front of him.

"But this is meaningless to you, and it will even make you drown in hatred and lose your mind."

Qi Lian's body was shaking.

The strange breath was also fluctuating violently.

"I know... but I can never forget..."

At this moment.

Qi Lian's body began to emit a faint but rapid red light.

Obviously the backlash had begun to cause serious injuries to him.

Shirley Yang watched this scene nervously.

But was pulled to a safe distance by Huo Jilin.

"It seems that all this is coming to an end."

Qi Lian smiled with difficulty.

"You are all good people."

Qi Lian had difficulty speaking.

"I don't regret being friends with you."

Before he finished speaking.

The red light was like the last fireworks.

It disappeared completely in the depths of the ancient tomb.

Hu Bayi let out a long breath.

"It's over."

Wang Kaixuan rubbed his eyes.

"Yeah... it's over."

Huo Jilin silently looked at the empty place.

"We should go."

He turned around and walked back first.

As the forbidden formation in the ancient tomb completely collapsed.

Everything seemed to return to calm.

Huo Jilin stood in front of the empty place.

His eyes were deep.

Hu Bayi walked to Huo Jilin.

Patted him on the shoulder.

"Master Huo, we should go."

Huo Jilin nodded.

Turned around and led the team through the tortuous underground palace passage.

Heading to the outside world.

Wang Kaixuan and Shirley Yang followed closely behind.

The four of them tacitly didn't say much.

During the whole return journey.

Everyone had the same idea in their hearts.

Find a good place for Qilian to rest.

Out of the ancient tomb.

The sun shone through the treetops.

It makes people feel a little warm.

Huo Jilin chose a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.

He found a resting place for Qilian in a picturesque valley.

"This is also a Feng Shui treasure land."

Hu Bayi gestured with his hands.

"The Yang Qi is sufficient and the Yin Qi is scattered. If Qilian can sleep here, it will be a good thing."

Wang Kaixuan dug the pit silently.

Shirley Yang picked wild flowers on the side.

Soon.

A simple grave was completed.

Huo Jilin carefully placed Qilian's remains in the grave.

And bowed deeply to the grave.

"May you be able to look at the mountains and rivers quietly here."

Wang Kaixuan said softly.
