However, as he walked further and further, he couldn't help but be speechless. He had thought that the underground palace would be a very powerful place, but he had never thought that it would be so big, with so many guards, even the underground palace would be so grand and majestic. The four city gates of north, south, west and north were completely built according to the style of the ancient times.
Immortal Zhou estimated that the strength of this underground palace was definitely not less than the strength of an entire dynasty.
No wonder they had the ability to fight the entire modern world!
However, the fact that these strange corpses were so rampant must have something to do with the puppet general that Bai Mu and the others were talking about!
However, given his power, it would be best for him to avoid the golem general.
”Hmm?” Immortal Zhou let out a light snort and quickly circulated his spiritual energy to resist. He was very puzzled as to why his resentment suddenly increased. Raising his head to look ahead, what he saw was actually a huge underground palace.
Within the palace, countless ghosts were entering and exiting the palace as if they were alive. They were contributing their labor to the construction of the palace.
Although the palace had yet to be completed, it was no less than the size of a county city.
From the looks of it, this palace had been built a long time ago.
When he saw the impenetrable membrane behind him, Immortal Zhou raised his white eyebrows, ”No wonder the resentment suddenly increased. Once I arrived at this place, I entered the isolation zone, and this isolation zone just happened to break down a portion of the resentment.”
”This is bad!” Immortal Zhou's expression changed. He hurriedly left the isolation area and found a concealed area. He stuck a piece of talisman paper onto it. He felt worried and stuck a concealed movement technique on it.
Because this almost transparent membrane not only could break down a portion of the ghosts' resentment, but it could also sense different auras from different outsiders, so after discovering this, Immortal Zhou used the fastest speed to leave the place.
Sure enough, the moment that Immortal Zhou left that place, a few people with halberds walked over. It seemed like they were in charge.
”Are you sure you're not mistaken?” An eight foot tall burly man wearing an armor asked the soldier that was following behind him.
”Reporting to the captain, there's no mistake. Just now, we saw an old man appear here through the display screen. ”He's not here right now. He must have found something and left!”
The person called ”Captain” gripped his halberd tightly and stabbed it towards the ground. Only then did he gruffly say, ”Next time you discover this situation, you must take measures quickly. You don't have to report to me first. ”Master said that no mistakes should be made in the matters of the palace. If anything goes wrong, our squad will probably lose their lives.”
”Yes, this subordinate understands!” Although it was just a small soldier, he didn't show any signs of subservience because of his humble title. It seemed that these people were quite different.
Immortal Zhou said with a sigh. Luckily, he had been able to escape just now; otherwise, he would have been exposed.
Looking at the palace that could only be built after who knows how long, Immortal Zhou was truly puzzled. This underground palace was already huge enough, so why did they need to build a huge palace so far away from the underground palace? Could it be that the owner of the underground palace was going to use it?
But there was no need? At such a distance, only ghosts would come!
It was originally a joke, but it made Immortal Zhou turn serious. ”Could it really be a joke?” Other than the Underworld, there is nothing else that can drive the ghosts in the Underworld. ”
When he thought of this, Immortal Zhou looked at the ghosts that were in the process of constructing the palace. The ghosts that were building the palace were at least a few hundred years old, and their cultivations were exactly what Immortal Zhou desired. If he could obtain them, then coupled with the Snow Muscle Bottle, he would definitely be able to train in the army of ghosts.
But behind this ghost?
The Underworld's words definitely wouldn't let these ghosts directly build a temporary palace. After all, the Underworld was originally the final resting place for ghosts and was a place for them to retreat to, so how could they treat it as labour? The only possibility was that the masters of the Underworld had a deal with the Underworld …
If so?
An enigmatic smile appeared on Immortal Zhou's face. ”If that's the case, then they probably won't dare to pursue this matter any further by secretly getting rid of a portion of the ghosts!”
With that in mind, Immortal Zhou stealthily hid himself here, waiting for the ghosts to be brought back to his lair.
”No wonder humans like them can control these ghosts!” Looking at the ghosts staring at the willow iron chain in the soldiers' hands, that metal chain was not made of ordinary material. If one were to investigate it deeply, Immortal Zhou would not have seen it before, but Immortal Zhou could feel that it came from the Underworld.
