The Romantic Soldier King

C1888

The machine's roar resonated through the entire valley. The water that was extracted from it was discharged onto the ground. In an instant, the entire bottom of the cave was submerged by the water from the pool.    

    

Some of them were drawing water, while some were building fences around the Deep Pool. Hiding high up in the sky, Ye Cheng saw that the water was sloping in one direction, and the water they were pulling did not flow back in, making him realize that there was an exit at the bottom of the cave.    

    

Ye Cheng followed the direction of the concealed pool, and found the cave to be strange near the outermost corner of the rainforest.    

    

The entire cave formed a 30 degree slope. After the water was extracted, it flowed to the other side of the wall. After a period of time, the water began to seep into the mud and was quickly decomposed.    

    

Ye Cheng discovered that the largest range of this phenomenon was around two meters. Beyond this range, the water would sink into puddles of water, and some of the water would be digested after it was poured in. With doubts in his heart, Ye Cheng tried to give it a try. His fist pressed against the rock wall, and the places his skin touched became as moist as water touching water.    

    

Taking a few steps back, the water stain climbed all the way up to the middle of the wall and spread out, forming a mushroom shape.    

    

Ye Cheng gathered all his strength into his right fist. He did not want the average person to attack with a punch, so he placed his fist against the wall and directly aimed at the wall as he pulled apart the distance between them.    

    

This kind of fist technique seemed to have no sense of power, but in reality, if he were to be punched like that, his internal organs might all be shattered. Under short range attacks, the fist adhesion will be very concentrated, and the Strength Point will have a strong explosive power under short range attacks, thus allowing the target to have a clearer understanding of the target's purpose.    

    

Ye Cheng didn't want to break the rock wall, but wanted to test the thickness of the rock wall.    

    

After repeatedly hitting the same spot, the effect of the short strike was astonishing.    

    

At first, there was no reaction from the rock wall. It was as if the fist was once again placed on a piece of cardboard, causing no damage after the power was digested. However, as Ye Cheng's fists descended again and again, the harmless appearance finally underwent a different change. Starting from the center, a crack appeared, and gradually spread out in all directions.    

    

Crack * * Crack * * Crack * The sounds of something shattering continuously rang out, but the faint sound of something shattering was covered by the sound of the machine, and no one noticed what was happening at the other end of the Deep Pool.    

    

Ye Cheng retreated back into the rainforest. He stared at the walls that were continuously splitting apart and started to fall apart, revealing the wondrous sight beneath the walls.    

    

Heavens, Ye Cheng could not believe it, there was a bronze door hidden under the cliff, it was around two metres tall, the corroded bronze door had four carvings of faces, although it could not see anything, but its shape was very similar to the four statues, could it be that there was some kind of secret behind the ghost door?    

    

Ye Cheng did not dare to be negligent, and waited for the stones to fall, then he walked to the bronze door and forcefully pushed it, but it did not budge an inch. He used the power of the seventh level to push again, but still didn't push open the copper door. He looked around for the mechanism to open the door. Surprisingly, the bronze door did not have any activation mechanism.    

    

Just as Ye Cheng was looking for a way to break open the door, he heard an explosion from afar, and a fireball flew up into the sky from the Deep Pool's side. Now that he could no longer hide the existence of the copper door, Ye Cheng could only stomp his feet and throw himself into the rain forest, using the dense tree branches as cover to sneak towards the direction of the Deep Pool.    

    

The sound of explosions rang out as fireballs flew into the air, spreading throughout the cave with a burnt smell. The closer they got to the Deep Pool, the deeper the water got. The water that couldn't be completely discharged started to pour back in.    

    

High up in the sky, Ye Cheng could see everything clearly.    

    

With the terrain advantage, it was impossible for the water to flow back into the pond, unless someone was trying to cause the water to flow back into the pond on the ground that was too high above ground. But when the facts were laid in front of him, Ye Cheng couldn't help but think of a person. If she was here, pouring water into the pond wasn't impossible, it was just that Chen Luoxue wouldn't possibly appear in the mountain, so ?    

    

Another round of explosion rang out. The situation below was already in danger, Ye Cheng did not have time to think about it, he increased his pace and hid beside the Deep Pool. The water in the pool was more than half gone, but he was still unable to see the bottom. There were no traces of Su Wan and the old granny at the side of the Deep Pool. In order to investigate whether they were dead or alive, Ye Cheng decided to jump into the lake to investigate.    

    

The bottom of the lake was much cleaner than they had imagined. The Deep Pool was not as deep as they had expected, and after diving a few meters down, they could easily see aquatic plants and some unknown fishes.    

    

Ye Cheng searched the bottom of the pool to find traces of people, but he actually found a pit, so he allowed himself to float above the water surface, after calming down, he once again dove into the cave in the center of the Deep Pool.    

    

At first, there were a lot of pools in the cave, but as they went deeper, the water level became lower and lower. At the end of the cave, the ground became dry.    

    

Ye Cheng discovered two pairs of footprints of different sizes, and they disappeared at the end of the tunnel. There was no need to think too much, there must be a secret door in the passage. However, the rock wall was rather smooth and he couldn't find any traps even after he touched it. He couldn't help but be anxious.    

    

After a few kicks, the rock wall suddenly produced a cracking sound. Ye Cheng was so shocked that he retreated two steps, staring at the rock wall that had split open from the middle, and then, in shock, he discovered a new tunnel.    

    

What's the situation?    

    

Ye Cheng had some doubts in his heart, but he still walked in. The space inside the cliff wall was extremely large. The door behind them automatically closed, and two cracks couldn't be found. Now that he had finally embarked on a road of no return, Ye Cheng ignited the fire machine to illuminate the interior, shocked by the sight of the exquisite pavilion in the middle of the air.    

    

He never thought that there would be an ancient building hidden inside an unassuming mountain. Each beam, each log, and each tile looked extremely detailed. The carvings were vivid and nimble, just like living creatures.    

    

Ye Cheng didn't have the heart to shut off the ancient building's image. He shuttled back and forth the ancient building to find Su Wan, and his shouts reverberated in the air, filled with an ethereal sound, causing him to feel a lingering fear. This place was ridiculously large, and strange and hidden things could be seen everywhere.    

    

Standing on the highest point of the ancient building, Ye Cheng looked down. Ye Cheng had a feeling that he had passed through the world, he could not imagine himself walking to such a high place, with a glance, it was pitch black below him. He could only vaguely make out the outline of the building.    

    

It was impossible for anyone to survive here. The entire ancient building was like a dead stronghold.    

    

"Su Wan!"    

    

The air in the cave became thinner as time passed by. If he could not find the person and did not think of a way to leave, he might die from lack of oxygen.    

    

Just as Ye Cheng was about to give up, there was suddenly a reflection of the mirror a few meters in front of him. At first, it was only for a short moment, but after a few flashes of light, Ye Cheng confirmed that it was not an illusion and rushed forward.    

    

At the bottom of the building, Ye Cheng discovered a reflection point, it was a mirror.    

    

Lying atop the building, he looked down and realized that the entire ancient building was built on top of a mountain. If one was not careful, it was very possible that one of the feet would miss them and fall down.    

    

Ye Cheng suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He did not expect that there was such a trap inside the mountain. However, since they found the mirror here, Su Wan and the others might be hiding underneath.    

    

Climbing down the cliff, Ye Cheng found even more female items. He would find some buttonpins or something along the way. Su Wan, if you are still here, let out a squeak. "    

    

After the echo, Ye Cheng could still make out a faint moan coming from the person's mouth. She was less than a meter away from him, but she could not see him under the light of the flames.    

    

Ye Cheng, who had not given up, kept on calling out Su Wan's name, while continuing to crawl, he finally found Su Wan's silhouette. However, the two of them were separated by a transparent glass wall.    

    

Su Wan who was standing opposite of the window hugged her knees. She was like a baby that was born in her mother's womb, completely indifferent to the outside world. No matter how hard Ye Cheng slapped on the glass, he was unable to wake up the person inside.    

    

"Dammit, what the hell is this place!?" Ye Cheng took out his blade, the tip of the blade hitting the glass, cutting out a few pieces of glass, but that was it, the glass did not get damaged at all.    

    

"There's no need to smash it!"    

    

Ye Cheng turned his head to look at the voice behind him. The old granny walked out from the shadows, and stared at Su Wan who was in the glass, she laughed disdainfully. You can't possibly save her. This is her life. "    

    

"Grandma, what's going on?"    

    

"Anyone who covets the treasures of the Ghost sect will die. She is no exception." The old granny coldly walked to Su Wan, pointed at her and said again: "Those people thought that you could find the entrance after draining water, it is simply a joke. I saw that you have some conscience after luring you here, and only after all the people outside die, I will let you out. However, if you dare to do anything rash here, don't blame me for not giving you face. "    

    

From the meaning of his mother-in-law's words, this elder must have some connections with Gui Ming. Ye Cheng's heart was moved as he asked: "Granny, since you're so familiar with the cave, what is hiding behind that copper door?"    

    

"Copper Door?" You actually found the bronze door? "    

    

"It's very easy to find it in one place. Who knows? The group of people up there might have already discovered the bronze door."    

    

"The old granny squinted, as if she was considering whether or not Ye Cheng's words were true or false. You'd better not lie to me, or you'll die with her. "    

    

As soon as she finished speaking, the old granny retreated into the darkness at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and disappeared from Ye Cheng's sight.    

    

Ye Cheng did not rashly go and break the glass again as he stared at the person inside the glass. It had been an unknown how much time had passed since he entered the mountain, so Sang Huihui and the others must be worried.    

    

Keeping guard at the bottom of the Deep Pool, time seemed to have lost all meaning. Facing Su Wan, Ye Cheng still could not figure out the meaning behind the old lady's words. To make him believe that Su Wan was someone who would betray Ye Chen, it was as difficult as being not the reincarnation of the Golden Sun God. There must be some kind of misunderstanding.    

    

Unknowingly, an incense's worth of time had passed before the old granny finally appeared in front of Ye Cheng, her expression somewhat ugly.    

    

"Follow me."    

    

Grandma wants me to leave, but since I entered alone, I have to leave alone. You don't want Ye Chen to ask me anything, right?    

    

"You're threatening me."    

    

"If Granny doesn't kill me, then I still have value. If I have value, then there's a deal. If you let her go, then I'll go with you." Ye Cheng smiled craftily, he was sure that his mother-in-law would not do anything to him.    

    

Sure enough, the old granny hesitated. She stared at Ye Cheng with her muddled eyes, and coldly snorted after a long while. "Is that all Old ghost Shi has?"    

    

"Grandma, so you actually know my martial uncle. That's even better."
