Chapter 229 Liao Did Not Lie to You
The Shui script on the wall is written lively and vigorous in calligraphy, also clear to see. It is easy to recognize for Rong Donglin who is well-educated. It is because he understands the meaning immediately that his expression becomes so weird.
“What does it mean?” Lin Luoran asks anxiously.
When Rong Donglin finally closes his eyes and reads the contents on the wall out loud, Lin Luoran is confused—
“Knock three times and enter Dongting Dragon Palace.”
Such a simple way is too incredible. Besides, the signature under the big characters make them astonished.
“Liao didn’t lie to you, did he?”
Liao! These characters are 100% Shui script, but they are newly engraved…Is all this arranged by Liao? Even Lin Luoran doubts if she was cheated by Liao, let alone Rong Donglin!
Why did she believe in Liao? Lin Luoran finds she has no reason to do so.
Knock three times. How should she knock? Somehow, Rong Donglin stretches out his right hand to make a fist and knocks gently as if he was knocking a neighbor’s door:
The first time he knocks, there appears fierce fire, but they remain unchanged in the water dome.
The second time he knocks, they look at each other and can hear each other’s breath, but they still remain in the same place.
Rong Donglin is a little nervous. He knocks for the third time with his eyes closed. After a few seconds, a big whirlpool appears on the stone wall, pulling them in with irresistible force.
Civilized as Lin Luoran is, she still wants to curse in such a situation. She spins around in the whirlpool and then falls heavily on the ground.
The water dome has already broken. Rong Donglin also falls on the ground not far away. He is too weak that he even faints. Lin Luoran gets up to check him. Making sure that he is all right, she uses her power to wake him up. Then Lin Luoran looks around this place.
Through the transparent dome, they can see fish swimming outside. With lake water isolated outside, it is dry and bright here. This should be the bottom of Dongting Lake.
It is an ancient building complex with palaces and attics.
In front of the highest and biggest palace is a golden gate. The top of the gate is decorated with patterns of dragons and phoenixes, which look extremely imposing.
Now even Lin Luoran can read the characters on the inscribed board— the Dongting Dragon Palace.
As expected, dragons love glittering treasures. Even though it may be just the outer hall, she sees red corals higher than humans on both sides of the gate, and the top of the palace gate is decorated with huge pearls. In front of the corals, there are two broadswords, which may be weapons of shrimp soldiers and crab generals. But now with all the fish and shrimps isolated outside the palace, it is empty here. They can’t even see a turtle, let alone dragons.
As Lin Luoran hits the palace gate with Wakan, electric sparks come out immediately, and she can also hear faint thunder. Lin Luoran’s Wakan doesn’t work at all.
She doesn’t know anything about inhibition. Even if she knows, she might not be able to open the gate. After all, it is the palace for dragons, who are the main characters in Huaxia legends. As a cultivator on the level of Laying Foundation, she may only be able to fight a shrimp soldier.
“There is indeed a Dongting Dragon Palace.” The palace looks golden. From the inside of the palace, you can see the outside. Fish swim among the algae, isolating all the lake water outside the palace.
Even with modern technology, it is hard to build such a huge palace under the deep lake with high water pressure, isn’t it?
Rong Donglin wanders around curiously and even makes a childish act of pressing his face against the wall.
