Most creatures in the geno universe only had one soul, but Han Sen had many beast souls in his Sea of Soul. Each silver sycee was able to lock down a beast soul. Han Sen used eight beast souls on eight silver sycees to render them useless.
Han Sen put away the silver sycees and patted the blood kirin's head. He looked at Mister White and said, "Mister White, where should we go now?"
Mister White went silent for a moment and said, "I don't know what material these palaces are made of. Not even Fox Queen was able to break through them. We have to use teleporters to travel between the palaces.
There were a total of four portals in each palace. There was the main entrance, one portal in each of the two side halls, and one portal in the back hall.
That means every palace has four exits. We don't know how many palaces there are, but if we want to find the right path to the Sacred Leader's treasure, we won't be able to rely on luck alone. "
"Mister White, you are very good with restrictions and calculations. You must have a plan," Han Sen said with a smile.
"I have an idea, but I don't know if it's correct. We can give it a try," Mister White said, and then he walked to the back hall.
Crime followed Mister White, and Han Sen followed with the blood kirin. It was just as Mister White had said. This place was like a maze, and Han Sen wasn't very good at it. It wouldn't be easy for him to find the Sacred Leader's treasure.
It was dangerous to wander around, and there was a chance they'd run into Fox Queen before they found the treasure. That would be even more troublesome.
Han Sen followed Mister White through the teleporter in the back hall. They found themselves in another hall. This hall was similar to the one Han Sen had just entered. There were many statues and paintings.
Mister White calculated for a moment. He chose the side hall's teleportation door and continued walking.
Han Sen quickly discovered that there were many palaces. They were incredibly complex. Mister White had to calculate the correct path every time they reached a palace. They spent four hours going through one hundred palaces, but they still hadn't reached the end.
"How long until we reach the treasure?" Han Sen couldn't help but ask.
Crime coldly snorted. "Do you think it's easy to calculate the correct path?
If it weren't for Mister White leading us on the right path, we would have been in mortal danger in the wrong palaces. It wouldn't have been a matter of time. We wouldn't have been able to make it out alive. "
"I don't have any other intentions. I just want to know how long it will take to reach the real treasure trove." Han Sen said lightly.
Mister White laughed and said, "If my calculations are correct, we will reach the first node soon."
"What do you mean?" Han Sen asked, puzzled.
Mister White thought for a moment and said, "Even if we are on the right path, there will be some defensive measures.
Just like a vault, there will be many security doors installed. We are on the right path, but those security doors must be opened before we can enter. I estimate that there will be four to seven such places. I call these places nodes.
Of course, the security door is just a metaphor. The defensive measures here are not as simple as a security door. Everyone should be careful. "
After that, Mister White kept walking. Han Sen had no choice but to follow him.
They passed through three more palaces. Mister White reached the front door of one of the palaces. He said to Han Sen, "If my calculations are correct, the next palace will be the first node of this maze. You guys need to be careful."
After that, Mister White went through the curtain of light. Crime followed after him.
Han Sen had a bird's nest on his head. He summoned his gold Demon Bug King Bai Sema and walked through the light.
Just like before, Han Sen appeared in the teleporter of another palace. This palace was different from the hundreds of palaces they had passed through before.
This was a circular palace, and the ceiling seemed to cover the sky.
In the center of the main hall stood a huge stone statue.
It was a god wearing armor, and the top of its head almost touched the top of the sky.
Even though it was just a stone statue, it still exuded an extremely terrifying aura.
It made people have the urge to bow down and worship it, as if it was the master of the entire universe.
"Is this the statue of Sacred Leader?" Han Sen looked at the statue and guessed.
Fox Queen had told him that Sacred Leader wore armor all the time. It was impossible to tell if he was a man or a woman.
Mister White and Crime walked out of the teleporter, but they didn't go any further. Han Sen and the blood kirin came next to them. Mister White said, "Although it doesn't look like we are in any danger, we should still be careful. The correct exit is the front door. So, we will have to walk past the statue."
After that, Mister White started walking towards the statue. Crime was one step ahead of him. He walked in front of Mister White and said, "I will scout the way for you."
Han Sen liked Crime a lot. There weren't many people who were as loyal as him these days.
Han Sen walked next to Mister White, and Crime walked in front. Before they got close to the statue, the statue's eyes suddenly lit up.
The entire palace was lit up by the statue's eyes. Han Sen and the others were caught in the light.
But it was just a normal light. It wasn't destructive, and it didn't break through their defenses.
"Little kids, welcome to my treasure trove." The statue spoke, which shocked Han Sen and the others.
"Do not be afraid. This statue is just a fragment of my will. It is not my real body," the statue said.
The stone statue continued, "Since you were able to come here, it means that my true body is already dead. The things left here are already useless to me.
I can give it to you, but you will have to pass a small test. Only those who pass the test can claim my treasure. If you don't, not even a deified elite will be able to take a single grain of sand from here. "
"What is the test?" Crime asked.
The stone statue's voice was like a robot's. It was emotionless, and it was impossible to tell if it was a man or a woman. It only continued, "This test is very simple. As long as you can break it, you pass the test. I wish you good luck."
After that, the statue moved. It bent down and placed something in front of Han Sen. Then, it returned to its original form.
The light in the statue's eyes dimmed. It was like an ordinary statue.
Han Sen looked at the item that the statue had placed down. It was a stone pillar that was around forty centimeters wide. It looked very normal, like a statue made of green stone.
Crime tried to talk to the statue, but it didn't answer him.
"Don't ask. That was just a fragment of its will. It is gone now. There is nothing special about the statue," Mister White said.
