I was imprisoned by the Empress at the beginning, and I was secretly invincible

The length of this underground passage was far beyond Jiang Hao and his companions' expectations. It was winding and endless, as if it led all the way to the deepest part of the ground.

Even though the two of them walked forward slowly for half a cup of tea, they still hadn't reached the bottom.

On the contrary, the temperature rose as they went down. The blazing flames came like a tide, one after another, one wave higher than the other, giving the two of them the feeling of entering a world composed entirely of flames.

"There should be a fire vein below... No, more than one fire vein, and it's a large fire vein!"

"The Bagua Sect is a major alchemy sect, and alchemy naturally requires the help of underground fire. It's normal to have several fire veins hidden underground. The key is where this passage leads to..."

"Go a little further ahead. If it doesn't work, we'll return the same way. Anyway, we've gained a lot this time. If we can't figure out the situation, there's no need to risk our lives."

"Okay, go a little further ahead and see. Maybe there will be new discoveries..."

Jiang Hao and the Palace Master of Jukun Palace exchanged opinions as they walked forward.

Neither of them was an ordinary strong man. The raging flames were powerful, but they had little impact on them, at least for the time being.

Unknowingly, another half cup of tea had passed. Just as the two were hesitating whether to continue moving forward, the scene in front of them finally became clear.

It seemed that they had entered an underground palace. There were traces of artificial excavation on all sides. There were many totem portraits carved on the bluestone walls on both sides, with people and animals, as if telling a dusty history.

Moreover, these totem portraits were not only beautiful, but the rune lines seemed to contain special powers.

Even though the raging flames had been burning for countless years, they could not do anything to the totem portraits. Instead, they absorbed endless flame energy, making these totem portraits more lifelike.

"Something seems to be wrong, be careful!"

The master of Jukun Palace has rich experience in exploration. He sensed something and frowned. He expanded his domain without saying anything and reminded Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao was startled when he heard this, but he did not take it lightly. He immediately used his magic power to activate the dragon armor and instantly condensed layers of defense shields to wrap around his body.

The Emperor Sword in his hand also emitted a cold sword light, and he entered a combat state.

"Crack, crack--"

At this moment, accompanied by a strange sound, a ray of mysterious light flashed, and all the surrounding energy rushed towards the totem portraits. In a moment, terrifying figures emerged from the totem portraits.

Looking closely, they were puppets.

These puppets are basically beast-shaped puppets, but they are different from the ordinary puppets they have seen. These puppets are filled with dazzling flames and the power of laws. The aura they exude is three times stronger than that of ordinary Saint Emperor Realm powerhouses.

"It seems that there is really a big treasure hidden under the ground. Even if it is not the legendary Bagua furnace, it is definitely not an ordinary thing!"

Seeing the dozens of terrible puppets suddenly appearing in front of him, the Palace Master of Jukun Palace was not surprised but happy.

These puppets are obviously arranged by the Bagua Sect, and the Bagua Sect cannot arrange so many puppets here for no reason, so there must be something hidden under the ground.

For ordinary powerhouses, dozens of high-level puppets that are comparable to Saint Emperor Realm powerhouses are naturally a big trouble, but for the two of them, it is not a threat.

Seeing these dozens of puppets rushing towards them together, Jiang Hao and the others did not hesitate at all and took the initiative to meet them immediately.

Whether it was the magical power of the Jukun Palace Master or the sword of the Emperor in Jiang Hao's hand, it was enough to cause fatal damage to these puppets.

With the flashing figures of the two, in a short moment, these dozens of ferocious puppets turned into a pile of broken copper and iron, and scattered all over the ground in an instant.

However, before the two could breathe a sigh of relief, they saw that the broken limbs and arms of the puppets on the ground were reassembled under the blessing of a mysterious force, turning into an extremely huge monster.

At the same time, the countless totem portraits on all sides also shone, as if countless runes were covering it, and the aura of the giant monster became stronger and stronger.

In a moment, it turned into a tiger-shaped puppet about ten feet high, with brilliant divine light flashing all over its body, as if it was made of divine crystal, and the aura it exuded became extremely terrifying.

It was far beyond the previous puppets by more than one level, even the independent cultivators such as Jin Hailong who had competed with them for the Holy Dan Palace before were also far behind.

At this moment, the Jukun Palace MasterThe relaxed look on the master's face disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented solemn look.

At this moment, he was more and more certain that there must be some treasure hidden under the ground, but the problem was that they might not be able to get it, because the tiger-shaped puppet in front of them was a little beyond their ability.

"Is this... a supreme puppet?"

"Damn it!"

"How could the Bagua Sect put such a powerful weapon here? And we bumped into it!"

The so-called supreme puppet is a terrifying puppet that can rival the supreme powerhouse.

Of course, a puppet is a puppet after all, and it certainly cannot be compared with a real supreme powerhouse.

But the problem is that he is not a supreme powerhouse, but only a quasi-supreme fourth-level powerhouse.

This crystal-clear tiger-shaped puppet can be said to be the strongest opponent they have encountered since entering this secret realm. If they are not careful, they may even be in danger of death.

"What should we do?"

Jiang Hao's face also changed slightly.

He could feel that the tiger-shaped puppet in front of him was a much greater threat than the one Jin Hailong had brought to him before.

Moreover, Jin Hailong knew his identity and was afraid of the existence of the Hidden Dragon Mark, so he did not dare to kill him.

But the puppet in front of him did not know what fear was, nor did he care whether he had the Hidden Dragon Mark, and would not show mercy to him.

Once he died in the hands of this puppet, he would really die!

The Lord of Jukun Palace also understood this, and his face was extremely ugly for a while.

The plan they had made before was completely useless in front of such a puppet.

"I will deal with it, you hide behind... If the situation is not right, you run away immediately!"

The Lord of Jukun Palace took a deep breath, but he did not run away alone, but took the initiative to meet him.

A ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and then he directly transformed into a monster.

As the demonic energy rolled in, a giant snow-white Kun appeared. Even though it was trying to be restrained, its huge body still occupied most of the palace...
