Chapter 557
The demonic castle seemed to be completely sealed off. There wasn’t even a window. It was about eight feet tall and had an inestimable surface area. The bronze door was tightly shut. Who knew if it could be opened?
Xiao Chen and The Lion King cautiously approached the demonic castle. They didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary, so they quickened their pace. In a short while, they were about ten feet away from the bronze door. They stopped and studied the demonic castle up close.
“The demonic castle is built with a type of black stone. It’s a very hard and sturdy stone.”
Xiao Chen walked over and knocked on the wall with his wooden sword. He realized that the stone used to build the demonic castle was very special. He had never seen such a stone before.
The Lion King wasn’t interested in the black stone. He stared at the huge bronze door. He seemed to feel that there was something unusual behind the bronze door. After a while, he walked closer to the bronze door and sent a voice transmission to Xiao Chen and the Fengsha Sword. “Big Brother, I’ll open the door. Stand aside. Xiao Sha, pay attention to Big Brother’s safety!”
“Da Huang, be careful.”
Xiao Chen didn’t stand aside. Instead, he pressed his back against the wall and stood beside the bronze door. He held his sword with both hands and was ready to attack any enemies that might rush out of the demonic castle.
The Lion King didn’t insist that Xiao Chen stand aside. Seeing that Xiao Chen was in an offensive and defensive posture, he felt that there was no problem. He raised his right front paw and touched the bronze door lightly. Then, his right front paw gradually increased the force.
“Clang.”
The bronze door let out a dull sound. The sound was not very loud, but it was very loud in this quiet atmosphere. The bronze door was originally two tightly closed doors, but now there was a fist-sized crack on it.
The bronze door wasn’t locked from the inside?!
Strange!
The Lion King’s golden eyes were like torches. His gaze shot inside and found that it was pitch-black inside. Even with his eyesight, he was actually able to see the situation inside. He did not sense any experts lying in ambush near the bronze door, so he continued to push it open.
Xiao Chen saw that the gap in the door was getting bigger and bigger, and he felt a little nervous. This nervousness didn’t come from the bronze door, but from the smell that leaked out from the gap. It was a kind of cold and fishy smell, as if it wasn’t for living, but for a slaughterhouse.
“Clang!”
“Clang!”
“Clang!”
…
The bronze door was incomparably heavy. When it was pushed by the Lion King, it gave off a rhythmic dull sound. One after another, it crashed into the hearts of Xiao Chen and the Lion King, giving off a strange feeling. Coupled with the cold stench, it made one’s hair stand on end and their scalps go numb.
“Bang.”
With the sound of a bronze door hitting the wall, the two bronze doors were completely opened. Without the bronze door blocking the way, the situation inside could naturally be seen more clearly.
Xiao Chen found that there was no danger, so he walked out and stood beside the Lion King. Their gazes looked into the demon castle together. He was surprised to find that there wasn’t a single direction behind the bronze door, but a huge passageway. The passageway was curved, and he couldn’t see too far inside.
There were no lights in the passageway, and it was pitch-black. Fortunately, Xiao Chen and the Lion King were strong and had extraordinary eyesight. They could clearly see the places that weren’t blocked by the stone walls of the passageway.
“Such a thick smell of blood.”
Facing the entrance of the passageway, Xiao Chen could smell the thick smell of blood from the depths of the passageway. Even he, who had killed countless people, couldn’t help but frown. He was curious about what was inside, and his expression became extremely serious.
“Big Brother, shall we go in?”
The Lion King was strong and didn’t fear any demons or ghosts, let alone a little smell of blood.
“Mhm.”
Xiao Chen nodded and didn’t object. He then added, “Da Huang, this is most likely a demon’s den of the Black Magic Pavilion, but the bronze door isn’t locked, and we don’t see anyone. This is too abnormal. Abnormal is demonic. Perhaps the experts of the Black Magic Pavilion have long since discovered our arrival, and are deliberately mystifying it to make us feel afraid?”
“Afraid my ass. Big Brother, us three brothers will kill our way in, kill, rob, and burn everything!
Kaka! “The Lion King said disapprovingly. He didn’t care that the Black Magic Pavilion would play such a trick.
“Good!
Let’s kill our way in! ”
Hearing the Lion King’s Three Lights policy, Xiao Chen was instantly filled with heroic spirit. He took the lead and walked through the entrance. Clearly, he hated the Black Magic Pavilion to the core and wanted to pierce through the demon castle of the Black Magic Pavilion.
“Xiu!” Seeing that Xiao Chen was the first to enter, the Lion King was worried about Xiao Chen’s safety and immediately followed.
In fact, Xiao Chen and The Lion King didn’t need to risk entering the mysterious demon castle. The Lion King could use the Desolate Energy Bomb to bomb the demon castle and force the experts of the Black Magic Pavilion to come out to fight. However, Xiao Chen had some misgivings. He was worried that Princess Ouyang Chuchu might be inside. If he used the Desolate Energy Bomb, then he might accidentally injure the princess.
If the princess was mistakenly killed by Xiao Chen, then Ouyang Tiande and Ouyang Yufeng would definitely be furious. They would definitely fight with Xiao Chen. The matter of inviting the Medicine Sage to treat Su Qingyi would naturally be ruined. He would also become a wanted criminal in the Qilin Kingdom, which wouldn’t be fun.
So-
Xiao Chen and the others could only risk breaking into the demon castle to rescue the princess and kill all the enemies inside. In addition, they could also understand what the mysterious Black Magic Pavilion was like. It would be convenient to prepare for the destruction of the Black Magic Pavilion in the future.
“Da da da!”
Although the footsteps of Xiao Chen and The Lion King were very light, the passage was too quiet. Their footsteps could be heard clearly and echoed endlessly in the passage, causing their ears to buzz. Fortunately, Xiao Chen and The Lion King were very calm and were not disturbed by the outside world.
Xiao Chen and The Lion King didn’t dare to take it lightly. Every step they took was very careful. First, it was to guard against the enemy’s sneak attack, and second, it was to guard against the offensive mechanisms in the passage.
The passage was very long. Xiao Chen and the others walked for almost a hundred feet, but they still hadn’t reached the end. Moreover, it was still twisting and turning. They really didn’t know why the builder made it like this. Was it just to create a sense of mystery?
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, Xiao Chen and the others reached the end of the passage. Because Xiao Chen saw an exit in front of them, and there was a faint light. Nothing happened in the passage, but Xiao Chen didn’t relax. On the contrary, he became even more cautious.
“Enter!”
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen transmitted a sentence to the lion beside him. One man and one lion flashed out of the end of the passage at the same time and entered the next unknown space.
“Hiss!”
