2116 The Source of the Celestial Shield!
“Ah—” A hurried and miserable scream came from behind.
Chu Liuyue stopped in her tracks and looked over.
A ripple appeared on the transparent barrier at some point in time, slowly and calmly surging over.
A young woman was devoured in the blink of an eye. She didn’t even have time to shout for help.
This sudden change made everyone’s hearts skip a beat.
“How, how could this be? Those people in front clearly entered successfully…” someone asked in panic.
After Chu Liuyue and the rest entered the barrier, another seven or eight people followed, but nothing happened.
But this woman…
“She walked to the side!” A guessing voice came from the crowd. “She seemed to be a little anxious just now. She wanted to go to the front and went that way!”
After Chu Liuyue successfully entered, the barrier was no longer hidden. Therefore, everyone followed the direction she went in.
However, the young woman was a little anxious for quick success and wanted to enter from another position first.
She didn’t expect such a thing to happen.
“Tsk… In that case, doesn’t that mean that this is the only safe place on this huge barrier?” Someone’s question silenced everyone with a complicated expression.
This guess sounded too fake. The barrier was originally one, so logically speaking, if one could enter from one area, then other places would be the same.
They had never heard of such a ‘zoning’ before, but the facts were right in front of them. It was the most likely explanation.
After a moment, someone continued forward and cautiously walked past the place where Chu Liuyue had just walked in.
Everything went smoothly. Nothing happened!
That person heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, it made everyone more certain of their previous guess.
Many people looked at Chu Liuyue with complicated gazes.
Well… Although they had more or less heard some rumors about Chu Liuyue and knew that this woman was extremely capable, this situation still far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Could it be that this barrier only recognizes her?!
Chu Liuyue’s eyes moved slightly, but she didn’t say anything. She simply turned around and continued walking forward.
At this moment, she had already arrived at the stone door at the front.
She raised her head slightly and gazed at it steadily. Then, she finally pushed the door open and entered—
…
The stone door slowly opened in front of her eyes. Chu Liuyue quickly glanced inside and was a little surprised.
This was an extremely wide area. As far as the eye could see, it was the hall they had looked at from afar.
In front of the hall was a huge circular area.
The circular area was completely made of black jade and was of excellent quality. Chu Liuyue took a look but didn’t recognize what kind of jade it was.
She had seen many good things. There were very few things that she didn’t recognize.
Around the circular area stood several white jade pillars. They were about as thick as two people hugging each other and were carved with different patterns. They looked very mysterious.
In Chu Liuyue’s impression, there had never been a palace like this. However, the fluctuation coming from the Celestial Shield was even stronger.
Chu Liuyue went forward.
At this moment, an extremely powerful aura suddenly attacked from the circular area!
A soft sound entered Chu Liuyue’s ears, and the next moment, her vision blurred!
The Celestial Shield flew out of her Cosmic Ring and headed straight for the black-jade area!
Chu Liuyue’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately looked up and saw that the Celestial Shield had already flown to the center of the circular area.
The Celestial Shield floated quietly above the circular area.
Beams of light seeped out and quickly enveloped it. Then, light poured down like water and poured into the black jade circular area!
At this moment, Chu Liuyue finally saw clearly that there was a piece missing from the center of the black jade circular area. Most importantly, the incomplete piece was clearly identical to the Celestial Shield!
At a glance, it was almost suspicious that once the Celestial Shield landed, it could perfectly integrate with it!
At this moment, light flowed out of the Celestial Shield and poured into the incomplete position. There were also connected patterns around it, mysterious and complicated.
Perhaps it was because it was so old that it was difficult to see clearly, but Chu Liuyue could clearly see that the gradually accumulating rays of light were surging in all directions along the groove of these patterns!
No, that isn’t right. Chu Liuyue stared at the black jade circular area. The Celestial Shield… might have belonged here to begin with!
…
“What’s that?”
“A shield? It seems to have flown over from Shangguan Yue?”
“I heard that she does have an extremely powerful black shield. I think it’s this, right? But why does that thing seem to be compatible with the incomplete piece in the circular area?”
…
More and more people came in. After seeing this scene, all kinds of discussions came one after another.
Shi Rui’er asked softly, “You… have been here before?”
Chu Liuyue shook her head.
“But that barrier and this shield…” Shi Rui’er bit her lip.
She naturally trusted Chu Liuyue very much, but it wasn’t the same for the others. With so many things happening, it was obvious that Chu Liuyue was inextricably linked to this place.
She said that she had never been here before. This sounded really unconvincing.
Chu Liuyue tightly knitted her brows.
Even if Shi Rui’er didn’t say it, she knew very well that everyone was probably suspecting her now.
The barrier was extremely terrifying, but she could enter unscathed.
This circular area was mysterious and powerful, and she happened to have a shield that very likely came from here…
She had long expected that this place might be related to the Celestial Shield, but she didn’t expect such a situation…
As the light on the Celestial Shield continued to flow down and gradually filled up the hollow space, Chu Liuyue suddenly realized that the connection between the Celestial Shield and her seemed to have weakened a lot!
She suddenly thought of something, and her heart sank. Could this black jade area be…
“Yue’er, the power of the Heavenly Square Cauldron is decreasing!” Su Li’s voice suddenly came from the bottom of her heart.
Chu Liuyue was stunned. “What?”
She quickly condensed her divine sense and indeed realized that the transparent karmic fire in the Heavenly Square Cauldron was much weaker than before. At a glance, it looked like it would go out at any moment!
This had never happened before!
Chu Liuyue looked up at the black jade area again.
The power in the Celestial Shield was being extracted bit by bit!
