Chapter 143 Lord Wu'an, I've Found a Clue
After meditating for a while that night, Su Ming went to sleep. He had mastered five light-element stars, so his speed was still quite good.
This is an ancient capital, so Su Ming focused his attention on the light element, which was better because the light element was particularly effective against the undead.
When Su Ming woke up, Mu Bai was already sitting outside.
The chair is made from plant materials; although it's a bit hard, it's fine to sit on for short periods.
"Good morning." Su Ming came out and said with a smile.
"Good morning, I'll take you to find them," Mu Bai said. Their life here was indeed quite slow, and they were mostly in a state of idleness.
Except when new people come.
However, this is mainly because Mu Bai's level is not high enough, so he can't participate. Here, strength is what matters. It's just that there are two more people above him. There are many pedestrians on the road. Some people have already made this place their home. Because they have stayed here for too long and can't get out, they have given up.
Very few people actually stay and want to leave; most will give up after a few years.
Mu Bai is someone who really wants to go out.
It's the same house as yesterday, with the same few people. They're the ones who want to get out, constantly searching for a way out, but they haven't found a clue.
"Su Ming, right?" Jiang Shaotian said, "Let me be blunt, what happened when you came here? Everyone experiences darkness, but I want to know if you saw anything in the darkness, or sensed anything amiss."
"Apart from darkness, you can say anything. Some people walked in as if on flat ground, some felt weightless and fell down, some felt like they were flying up. Not everyone saw the halo door; some just walked right in without any warning. So you can talk about anything," Zu Chuan added.
They've been here for a long time, and although they haven't been able to find any clues about how to leave, they have many speculations, but they can't be sure of what they know.
"Does seeing yourself count?" Su Ming's words gave Jiang Shaotian a jolt.
"Did you see yourself in it?"
"Hmm." Su Ming organized his thoughts and said, "To be precise, it's not that I know, but I possess fire elemental abilities. When I first came in, there was only endless darkness, but suddenly the fire elemental energy shone brightly. Although I have some on my body, it's even brighter underground."
Mu Bai narrowed his eyes. Su Ming didn't have fire element, which meant he had awakened it again?
He became a high-level mage after disappearing for three years? That fast?
"Continue," Jiang Shaotian nodded, indicating.
"I saw you all too."
"us?"
"Yes, it's not just me underground, there are you all too. The ground is like a mirror, and we're all down there, not like corpses, but like we're asleep, all piled up underneath," Su Ming said, clenching his fist.
It felt very real, but he felt that the person underground was the real one.
But what's here is all fake.
"So, we might be fake then?" Zu Chuan laughed. "That's really interesting. I felt incredibly real, but since the flow outside is different from here, I can't trust my own feelings. So, it's possible that everything here is fake."
Zu Chuan was overjoyed; this gave him another clue, and maybe he could leave this awful place soon.
"If that's the case, then what exactly is this place? Why does it feel so real? I can understand, but Jiang Shaotian, you can't be serious. Even the illusions created by those top foreign mind-manipulation mages couldn't be this realistic, let alone this one. It's highly likely that this isn't an illusion. I can't believe that any magic could achieve such an effect," said President Wu.
He's been here for quite a while, first on the opposing side, and now he's here, but his desire to leave has never wavered.
"Jiang Shaotian, why don't you go see Prison Chief again?" Xu Sheng suggested.
"He won't listen." Jiang Shaotian shook his head. It was too difficult to get anything useful out of these two prison guards. He had tried before over the years, but it was mostly fruitless. He had obtained some intelligence, but it wasn't very useful.
I'm going to leave for a bit to check things out. Jiang Shaotian stood up: "He hasn't sent any messages since yesterday, which is different from before. Before, if someone was around, there would be messages, but not now."
The group nodded, agreeing that it was necessary.
The old saying goes that Zu Chuan or Xu Sheng went to find Lao Da, but after Jiang Shaotian arrived, it was always Jiang Shaotian who went.
They didn't object to it; Jiang Shaotian was more capable and better suited to go than they were.
"Su Ming, are you going?" Jiang Shaotian turned around and asked. "Me?" Su Ming hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "Never mind, I'm not going."
We haven't figured out the situation yet, so we can't just run around. It's better to stay put.
"I'll go take those," Jiang Shaotian said, and left.
They are on the red team, and the opposing team is on the white team.
If Jiang Shaotian were to look for someone, his first choice would be the Red Team. Of course, the White Team wouldn't be out of the question either; he'd been to both, but it seemed they didn't welcome him there.
The palace was luxurious and spotless, but there was no one inside. It was a very large space, and it always took Jiang Shaotian a long time to walk to the end.
Magic cannot be used here; it is suppressed by something, making it extremely difficult to unleash.
The magnificent palace had the feel of ancient architecture, with ancient dragons adorning the load-bearing pillars, so lifelike that it seemed as if the prisoner had actually seen a real dragon.
Building such a palace would be extremely difficult, provided that it is real.
It feels very real here, but in reality, it might not be so. After all, even he himself might be faking it now.
"You're here again? What brings you here this time?" A voice suddenly rang out, as if the heavens were speaking, full of oppressive power, as if someone were looking down on you.
The source of the sound was indiscernible; it seemed to originate from the palace itself, yet also appeared to be outside the palace.
Jiang Shaotian stopped at the end of the palace and looked up at the wall in front of him. There was a lifelike dragon pattern on it, with clouds covering the sky and the sun, as if the dragon covered the entire world.
Especially the dragon's eye area, that agate-red gemstone, just looking at it for a while makes me feel dizzy and a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Shaotian habitually looked at the patterns on the wall for a while, then turned around, and a blurry figure appeared behind him.
That was a spatial fluctuation, a spatial fluctuation the size of a person, and the sound was coming from inside it.
Looking at the twisting space, Jiang Shaotian smiled and said, "Lord Wu'an, I've found a clue."
