Rules of Heaven - C90
There were at least thirty of these golems. They were a scattered prototype that spiraled into the ground, creating a spiral staircase that led down to the ground! Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian both had gazes of surprise when they saw this.
After more than an hour, when many people felt their feet tingling, the golem finally finished hammering down the tunnel. The two African men first tested their strength and then said, “Let’s go.”
The two of them led the way, with the Vulture following behind them. Soon, a large group of people started to crowd around them. After walking for a long time, they had finally reached the ground. However, the scene that appeared immediately stunned everyone there.
They saw a scene of the Netherworld Kingdom around them! A stone palace was in front of him, and a few malevolent looking corpses were sitting in it. The blood-red light flashed, and one could faintly see fragmented corpses hung upside down on some of the black stone pillars by the iron hook. It was unknown if it was an illusion, but they could still occasionally hear a painful howl coming from deep within the crowd.
Cold sweat oozed out of his forehead as he quietly took a step back into the crowd. The two men in black didn’t seem to feel anything. After looking around, they felt that something was off.
Nanwei said, “Xiwei, do you know this place?”
The Eastern Guard shook his head, saying, “I’ve never heard of it.”
The guard pondered for a moment before waving his hand at the surrounding palace buildings. The golems from before all leapt up and scattered around them.
The scope of this place was extremely large. There was a large and complicated palace, a dirty blood pool, and a chaotic set of stone pillars. The total area that these pillars were built in was probably close to two miles in radius!
The guard turned his head. “Who said that the wind crystals are here just now?”
Upon hearing his question, the condor hurriedly asked that person, “Did you make any errors in your investigation just now?”
That person hesitated for a moment before clenching his teeth and saying, “Impossible. I’ve used this thing for a few years already, it’s impossible for me to make any mistakes.”
Someone in the front of the line suddenly bowed and said, “Young Lord, Lu Feng will definitely not investigate wrongly, I hope Young Lord can see it clearly.”
The Vulture glanced at the two of them with a frown, then turned around and said to the Western Guard, “He probably did not make a mistake, Lu Feng has used this tool for many years already.”
“That Vulture, where are you going to find the wind crystals for me?”
After thinking for a while, the Vulture took out a small iron hammer from the ancient equipment in everyone’s hand. It changed the instrument on the spot and then assembled it again in a practiced manner. When Lu Feng saw this series of actions, his eyes lit up with a fervent look of worship. After Vulture set up the new device, he said to Lu Feng, “Try again.”
Lu Feng nodded his head and came out of the line, fiddling with the exquisite mechanisms on the apparatus. After a while, he stood up and frowned, “The Wind Crystal seems to have been obtained by something, its position has been constantly changing.”
The Southern Guard had never been part of it. He stood by the side and looked around. Suddenly, he shouted anxiously, “Those with silver crossbows, hurry up and get on the bow!”
The position of the Southern and Northern Guards seemed to be quite different from the others. After suddenly saying this, many people pulled out their silver crossbows from their back and readied their bowstrings.
Vulture was a bit confused, he asked: “Two guard commanders, what’s wrong?”
The south guard carefully looked at the dead bodies around him, then muttered to himself, “These corpses must have been attracted by some kind of force, and are about to be resurrected.”
When Ku Jiu and the others heard his words, they were all shocked. Many of the timid ones staggered and almost fell to the ground. One or two were pale.
The West Guard glanced at them and snorted disdainfully. “Have a few mechanical puppets escort them up. If they want them, they’ll be a burden.”
The guard nodded, and said to Fang Jiuju, “Let those who don’t have the silver crossbows choose between returning to the land or fighting!”
The eyes of the Vulture lit up. He knew what the captain was thinking, so he turned around and said, “We will do as the commander says!”
Hearing this, the faces of the people holding the silver crossbows changed. Some of them quietly placed them on the ground. Ding Hong secretly sighed in his heart. He casually took the silver crossbow from the hands of a nearby person who was trembling in fear and didn’t dare to throw it. He said, “Give it to me.”
The man was so surprised that he cried out. He hurriedly handed the silver crossbow to the man and walked out. However, he felt a little guilty after taking a few steps forward. He took out a small bag and quietly handed it to Ding Hong. He whispered, “This is a stink bomb that I secretly bought from the Stone Tower. It’s very powerful, so I’ll give it to you.” After doing all of this, he felt a clear sense of guilt. He didn’t linger any longer and left with the others.
Duan Ling Tian, on the other hand, also asked for a longbow. However, the person who gave her the longbow didn’t even say a word of thanks when he dropped it. However, Duan Ling Tian didn’t mind and asked Ding Hong in a low voice, “Why aren’t you leaving?”
Ding Hong rolled his eyes and said, “It wasn’t easy to get here, so I have to experience it properly.”
Duan Ling Tian said, “You’re not allowed to fight with me over the Sunflower power! “Otherwise …”
Ding Hong continued, “Otherwise, you will kill me, right?”
Duan Ling Tian turned his head to the side and ignored him.
Lu Feng also did not leave. He picked up a silver crossbow from the ground and held it in his hands. The Vulture looked at the remaining people, more than half of the defense line was gone, and he could even count the number of people that were left with his fingers! The corner of his eye twitched. He didn’t know what to say.
“A bunch of cowards. Is this kind of trash worthy of teaching the Secret Art of Quicksand?” sneered the guard.
The guard waved his hand and said, “Ignore them. I threw away five golems. Whether or not they can survive is up to them.”
The guard suddenly turned around and looked at the few people left behind, his entire body releasing a cold aura, and laughed sinisterly: “Just now, it was just a test for you! “The outside of the tunnel is probably full of undead. If they go out, the only thing that awaits them is death!”
Perhaps it was to cooperate with him, but the moment he finished speaking, the sound of “Ah …” came from the tunnel behind him. A frightened howl rang out. Following that, the curses, sounds, and screams of dozens of people could be heard. Coupled with the fact that the tunnel was expanding, the sounds could be heard clearly and were incomparably mournful. Even Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian looked at each other and frowned.
The Vulture looked at the tunnel coldly, but it didn’t care.
Suddenly, a strange sound of footsteps and breathing came from the tunnel. The people standing at the entrance of the cave couldn’t help but take a few steps to the side. After hearing that, the guard raised his arm towards the hole. Suddenly, his wrist split open and a few stink bombs flew out, directly smashing the hole.
The guard withdrew his arm and said to Lu Feng, “Where is the Wind Crystal now?”
Lu Feng’s face was also a bit pale, but he was much calmer than the others. After flipping the apparatus, he raised his head and said, “It’s in the depths of this palace.”
With a wave of his hand, all the golems nearby jumped over and followed them into the depths of the mysterious palace. On the other hand, the Western Guard led a group of golems and stood guard where they were.
When the Vulture had the time, it pretended to inadvertently circle around to the outer area. Suddenly, it flipped its arm and took out a small and exquisite long crossbow, aiming it at Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian. The rest of the golem raised its arm as well. With a flip of its wrist, many stink bombs were shot at them.
The Western Guard slowly walked over to Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian before calmly saying, “One of you is probably that monk from earlier, right?”
Seeing that they had said everything so clearly, Ding Hong could not be bothered to continue pretending. He smiled and said, “How do you know?”
The Western Guard glanced at him and said, “How about we make a deal? You help us block those Yin creatures. We’ll take you away, and after we get there, we won’t pursue the matter you’ve done. What do you think?”
“Ha!” Ding Hong gave a weird laugh.
“What are you laughing at?” asked the guard curiously.
Ding Hong coldly said, “What do you mean by not investigating what we did? I don’t think I’ve even seen you guys before? ”
The West Guard said indifferently, “You obstructed Mr Eighteen’s original plan. According to the Pan Clan’s law, you are already a threat to the Pan Clan. “If we don’t get rid of this sin, you will be hunted down by the Pan Clan in the desert.”
“Of course, you can also choose to disobey our orders and accept our round of stink bombs.”
When the crowd saw this unforeseen event, they stealthily moved behind the golem.
Seeing their attitude, Duan Ling Tian didn’t hesitate and quickly withdrew a black talisman. “When the time comes, I’ll naturally let you lead the way.” As soon as the incantation was chanted, the black rune turned into a cloud of black smoke that wrapped around the two of them and they rushed into the depths of the palace.
The guard did not expect them to suddenly leave like this. He was stunned for a moment and suddenly thought of something. Looking at the place where they had disappeared, he muttered to himself: “The Curse …”
Vulture asked, “Commander Xi Wei, what should we do next?”
“Guard the surroundings well. Use your crossbow whenever you see any movement!”
The Vulture nodded, then led his men to guard the area. The Western Guard then led the golem through the upward passage.

When Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian appeared, they were already deep within the crowd of mysterious palaces. The walls of the palace were covered in blood, the smell of blood was thick, and corpses could be seen everywhere. Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but feel his stomach churn as he retched. Ding Hong also could not help but frown.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard. At this moment, the south guard had rushed over with the golem.
He didn’t know how these puppets contacted him, but he would often wave his hands and the puppets would know what to do. Duan Ling Tian pulled on his arm and whispered, “You’re not allowed to fight over the Sunflower Power with me.”
Ding Hong rolled his eyes and said, “If you don’t want it, then don’t …” How much of the Eight Strength Force do you have? ”
Duan Ling Tian thought for a moment before replying, “Sanli.”
Ding Hong was astounded. He could not help but ask, “Which three forces?”
Duan Ling Tian said, “Zhe, ge, ze.”
Shock? Gen? “Ze?”
When he heard about the three powers that he did not have, Ding Hong was pleasantly surprised. Just as he wanted to ask where she obtained them from, a burst of fire suddenly flashed, followed by a deafening explosion.
Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian were both shocked and couldn’t help themselves from looking over.
In the distance, a red light filled the sky. A few human figures could be vaguely seen swaying within it. Not long later, one of the silhouettes walked out. It was the desiccated corpse that Ding Hong had seen before. However, the dried corpse was badly damaged from the stink bombs and fell to the ground after only a few steps. Although he did not die, he was no longer a threat.
The Southern Guard walked up to the desiccated corpse and stared at it coldly. The desiccated corpse’s mouth trembled as if it had experienced something. It said in a staccato manner, “It … became … “God of Death.”
The guard from the south said with disdain, “A dried up corpse wants to let it go?!” He lifted his foot and stomped down fiercely.
“Chi!”
The corpse was crushed by his stomp, and even its remaining strength caused a hole to appear in the rock beneath the corpse. After coldly sweeping a glance at it, the Southern Guard brought the golem and continued to search the surroundings.
When Ding Hong saw the Southern Guard’s stomp just now, he was overwhelmed with shock. When the Southern Guard stomped their feet just now, there was no spiritual energy circulating in their bodies. That was to say, he was completely relying on his own strength! However, after a simple estimation, his strength should be at least a thousand pounds!
Duan Ling Tian said, “This person is strange.”
“Oh?” Ding Hong did not expect her to see it too, so he asked, “Where is the strangeness?”
Duan Ling Tian said, “When he exerted his strength earlier, there wasn’t even a trace of vigor in his body! He’s a dead man! ”
“What!” Ding Hong’s heart skipped a beat as he hurriedly looked towards the Southern Guard. Hearing what Duan Ling Tian said, he felt that this person was slightly strange. Every step he took was almost identical, and the way he walked did not change at all.
A light flickered in Ding Hong’s eyes as he guessed, “Could it be …”
“He’s also a golem!” Duan Ling Tian said the second half of the sentence.
Ding Hong’s heart sank as he thought about it. What kind of monstrous family was this Pan Family? According to the pendant, that person should be in this Pan Family’s most secret location! If that place only had puppets of the Southern Guard’s level, how could he have possibly barged in? Plus, the battleship in the sky they saw before wasn’t even half as powerful as what they remembered, so how powerful could the largest battleship in the sky be?
It was fine if that was the case, but why was it that they had never heard of such an exaggerated power in the Western Wilderness?
Duan Ling Tian asked curiously, “What are you thinking about?”
Ding Hong came back to his senses. Shaking his head, he said, “Let’s follow them, don’t lose them.”
Duan Ling Tian gave a “hmm” sound, and the two of them lightly followed behind the Southern Guard and the others, walking all the way in. Not long after, the Southern Guard and a group of golem arrived at a hall that was five or six times larger than an ordinary palace!
The Southern Guard seemed to sense something and stopped in front of the stone steps.
All of a sudden, a cold aura spread out from the hall, and a deep and deep voice sounded out, “You guys are not Undead.”
The guard frowned. “Of course not.”
“None of you are strangers either …” What are your people from the Underworld doing here? ” The owner of the voice felt that the Southern Guard was not angry, so he said this.
Meanwhile, after Ding Hong and Duan Ling Tian heard this, their hearts cleared up, confirming their earlier guesses.
