Chapter 940 This set is so smooth and flowing
Chapter 940's routine was fluid and natural.
The altar hidden on the fourth underground level was very well concealed. If it weren't for Huo Yuhao's strong mental power and his superhuman detection skills, the group would have had a hard time finding the switch to enter, even if they had conducted a thorough search.
Using his hidden weapon skills, Huo Yuhao activated the mechanism of a black tortoise statue hidden under the pond in the back garden of the Alliance Leader's mansion on the third basement floor. The ingenious and complex mechanism inside startled even Huo Yuhao, who was proficient in Tang Clan hidden weapons.
"Who built such a complex mechanism? Did the Holy Spirit Cult build it themselves?"
Two soft metal wires, as thin as hair, moved like two living snakes in Huo Yuhao's hands, probing into the eye mechanism of the Xuan Turtle statue and gently activating the internal mechanism.
The group waited by the pool. Since the mechanism was hidden in the artificial lake, they dared not use their soul power to avoid the water, nor did they dare to push the pool water away completely.
All they could do was wait quietly for Huo Yuhao to return.
Because of their confidence in the Tang Clan's unique skills, the group was not very anxious.
A short while later, Huo Yuhao poked his head out from under the water.
"I've already activated the mechanism, but the entrance isn't here. It's probably opened somewhere else." Huo Yuhao climbed ashore, shaking his head as if shaking off water.
Wang Dong'er stepped forward, took Huo Yuhao's hand, and used her warm, luminous soul power to evaporate the moisture from his body.
Beibei patted Xu Sanshi and asked, "Can you smell anything?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Sanshi sniffed the air, then asked blankly, "I don't smell anything! What did you smell?"
"If even a dog like you can't smell anything, then it's probably not in the backyard." Beibei's lips curled into a mischievous smile.
Upon hearing this, Xu Sanshi immediately pounced on Bei Bei and grabbed her.
"You're the dog! How dare you call me a dog! Eat my Immortal's Guidance and Black Tiger's Heart-Piercing Technique!"
"Then you're not a dog, you're a slut!"
In the end, the two were separated by Tang Ya binding each of them with a blue silver vine.
The originally serious and solemn atmosphere was somewhat relaxed due to the two people's banter.
Seeing the two brothers tied up like dumplings, Ning Tian and the others covered their mouths and chuckled.
Beibei and Xu Sanshi exchanged a glance, both noticing the smugness in each other's eyes.
Huo Yuhao spread his mental energy, enveloping the entire Alliance Leader's Mansion, and then analyzed and probed it in his mind.
They soon discovered the hidden door inside a latrine.
The crowd stared speechlessly at the dilapidated outhouse before them, which had fallen into disrepair over the years.
"What era are we living in? Still using outhouses?" Xu Sanshi stuffed cotton up his nose, looking disgusted.
Beibei covered her nose and walked forward, tested the straw door of the outhouse, found that there was no mechanism, and gestured to indicate that it was safe.
The Tang Clan members wanted to use their soul power to cover their entire bodies and create a soul power shield, but with the mechanism door in front of them, they dared not make any rash moves.
The architectural design of the Tang Clan was done by Ye Nanxiao; this fox simply copied the design from Blue Star.
Having experienced what was called modern design and decoration, everyone found the outhouse in front of them utterly disgusting.
Qiu'er silently took out her astronaut protective suit and put it on, then pulled out a soul-guided staff.
She didn't want to use her Golden Dragon Spear.
The secret door was a section of wall inside the outhouse, allowing only one person to pass at a time.
The group entered the secret passage in the following order: Xu Sanshi at the head, He Caitou at the tail, and Huo Yuhao in the middle.
Huo Yuhao's mental detection was able to detect the area five meters in front of Xu Sanshi.
"This is practically the main passage of the tomb! Will there be any traps or mechanisms later?" Xu Sanshi suddenly said.
Beibei, following behind him, looked exasperated. "Have you been reading too many of Nanxiao's novels? Who builds their tomb entrance inside a latrine? That'll bring them eternal infamy!"
"Maybe they're afraid of tomb raiders? That's why the entrance has to be hidden!" Xu Sanshi said matter-of-factly.
"Third Senior Brother, there really is a trap ten steps ahead. Be careful, it's on the wall," Huo Yuhao warned.
Xu Sanshi paused, then carefully looked at his astronaut protective suit, slowly reached out and touched the wall next to him, knocking on it repeatedly.
"What do you want, you bitch?"
"I'm thinking of digging a tunnel to go around it!"
"...Go to the back! Give me your shield!"
After a quarter of an hour, Huo Yuhao and the others entered the altar on the fourth underground level.
"Ah Xiao, does this place look like the one you've seen before?" Jiang Nannan asked softly to the air beside her. Under her soft golden hair, a nine-tailed fox pattern was faintly visible.
"They all look pretty much like this. Look at that altar, it's like a circular staircase. There should be a flag or crystal in the middle to remind them not to touch it with their hands, but to use the props I gave them."
Ye Nanxiao, surrounded by an ice mirror, followed Jiang Nannan.
The frozen flower slowly bloomed, isolating Huo Yuhao from all senses.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nannan searched her storage ring and found two mechanical auxiliary arms.
The robotic arm has two thick robotic fingers on the left and only one on the right.
Huo Yuhao also saw the flag and crystal on the circular platform through mental detection.
"Everyone, take proper precautions. Our target is that high platform!"
The group cautiously approached the platform and, seeing Jiang Nannan take out the mechanical arm, they also pulled it out.
Xu Sanshi held a shield and stood at the front, with the tall Huo Yuhao behind him manipulating the mechanical arm, and Bei Bei and Dai Huabin on his left and right sides.
The four-person demolition team slowly moved forward.
"You may see some strange scenes next. Please don't panic. I am Huo Yuhao, and I have been personally tested and trained by Elder Mu."
A gentle voice resonated in everyone's minds.
Dai Huabin paused slightly, then looked at Huo Yuhao beside him. "What are you trying to say?"
"I possess a special ability to summon a third kind of being, the undead. Under Elder Mu's guidance, I successfully integrated the power of light from the Golden Tree into my body, nurturing an undead creature with the power of light."
"I know this is strange to you, and you might even think it's the ability of an evil spirit master."
"But please believe me, I am Huo Yuhao of Shrek Academy. My words and actions can withstand the academy's scrutiny. Today, I reveal my special abilities. Please lend me a hand, for I will be the Holy Spirit Cult's greatest nightmare!"
Huo Yuhao's words were forceful and his eyes were incredibly clear and determined.
He revealed his possession of the Undead Calamity Martial Soul because he needed to use this third Martial Soul in his upcoming actions, and also to fight alongside others.
To avoid arousing speculation and panic, he spoke only half the truth.
They concealed their origins but revealed that they had been trained and approved by Master Mu.
The latest novel is first published here!
This was to tell Dai Huabin and the others that he was not an evil spirit master.
After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, the Shrek group couldn't help but frown.
The Tang Clan members showed no unusual behavior.
Huo Yuhao was their junior brother, and they knew his character best.
Dai Huabin turned to look at Huo Yuhao and said, "You still have time to explain when the operation is underway? Elder Mu mentored you, and your master watched you grow up. Would we doubt Elder Mu? Would we doubt your master?"
Qiu'er stepped forward, a golden dragon spear appearing in her hand. "Stop hesitating, get ready to fight!"
The members of the Shrek team sprang into action, demonstrating their trust in Huo Yuhao.
Ning Tian sang the blessing of the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda, and Xie Huan Yue was ready to rush forward to respond at any time. Zhou Si Chen and others entered battle mode.
Jiang Nannan activated the gravity field, ready to bring the demolition team back at any time.
She turned to Ye Nanxiao, who was hiding beside her, and asked, "Did you teach Yuhao?"
"No, he came up with it himself." Ye Nanxiao smiled.
Choosing to reveal the truth at this moment also has its advantages, giving everyone time to prepare mentally.
After all, the sudden appearance of the Undead Calamity's power meant that even though Dai Huabin and the others were elites from Shrek Academy, they would inevitably be impacted.
"You knew about Yuhao's abilities all along?" Jiang Nannan didn't seem surprised by Ye Nanxiao's words.
"I did know a long time ago. He learned a few more things back then, but it was best if he came clean himself up," Ye Nanxiao answered honestly.
He said it was inappropriate, and even if he said it, he estimated that people would find it hard to believe.
Possessing all the combat power of a small world, including special and powerful combat species, who would believe it if I told them?
Even the Limit Douluo finds it difficult to claim that he can control a small world.
In the history of martial spirits, there are only extremely special martial spirits that can communicate with small worlds, but they are nothing more than a drop or two in the long river of history.
"You call this learning a little more?" Jiang Nannan rolled her eyes at Ye Nanxiao, a purple light illuminating her hand as she connected to the gravity field.
Ye Nanxiao chuckled. "Actually, I've learned a lot more. If Nannan wants to know, we can talk about it late into the night."
"Go away, you're so irresponsible." Jiang Nannan's face suddenly flushed red. She ignored Ye Nanxiao and focused on observing the situation on the high platform.
Huo Yuhao and his three companions slowly approached the flag and crystal floating on the high platform.
Huo Yuhao activated his mental detection to its maximum, controlling the mechanical arm to slowly approach and touch the Holy Spirit Flag. The three thick mechanical fingers grasped the Holy Spirit Flag and slowly detached it from the last circular platform.
Huo Yuhao's hands were very steady. The moment he detached from the mechanical arm, he threw it into the air and shouted "He Caitou!"
The mechanical arm held by He Caitou was two sizes thicker than others and could extend to two meters.
He bit his cigar, exhaled a puff of white smoke, and raised his mechanical arm.
Jiang Nannan pointed, and gravity lifted the mechanical arm to float towards He Caitou.
He Caitou immediately manipulated the robotic arm to catch it, and then gently swung it away.
Tang Ya had been waiting for a long time; a huge metal safe was open.
Blue-silver vines grew and wrapped around the mechanical arm, locking it together in a metal safe, which was then slammed shut.
Tang Ya's hands moved across the metal safe. With a soft mechanical sound, eight mechanical locks meshed together, activating the core magic array and shielding the soul power.
Huo Yuhao unleashed a blast of frost from afar, which landed on the metal safe, freezing it solid.
This entire process takes place within three breaths.
It can be described as flowing smoothly.
These people clearly trained a lot in Ye Nanxiao's underground laboratory.
P.S.: I'm going out of town with my boss for business tomorrow, so I need to take a day off.
