Li Huowang stood still, staring at everything in front of him with wide eyes.

He had always been indifferent to wealth, but when a golden palace appeared before him, he couldn't help but feel incredibly shocked.

The golden palace in front of him looked extremely solemn and sacred, even the falling snow in the air gradually disappeared.

"They all went inside." Li Huowang looked at the blood footprints on the golden bricks in the distance. Carefully maintaining his invisibility, he walked towards the inside.

Walking alone in a golden area, Li Huowang stepped on the golden bricks and looked at the golden palace. He felt like he was dreaming. How much money could it take to build such a huge golden city?

Following the blood footprints on the ground, Li Huowang quickly approached the entrance of a golden palace. The left couplet read, "The emperor's command is difficult to obey."

And the right couplet read, "May the heavens bless the virtuous, forever speak and protect, seek peace."

Li Huowang looked up, and on the huge plaque above, there were three golden characters shining brightly, "Golden Luandian."

"Golden Luandian, huh?" Li Huowang frowned and stepped inside. He didn't care about the name of this place now. He was more concerned about where Xin Su Beifeng, whom he was looking for, was.

The Golden Luandian was very empty, except for the giant columns with six-clawed golden dragons, there was nothing else.

Even the slow pace of Li Huowang's footsteps could be heard echoing.

"Why did the Taoist sects run so fast? And why did they come to the Golden Palace?" Li Huowang anxiously and uneasily walked towards the six doors behind the palace. But when he walked past, he found that there was no door at all!

"Huh?! Am I hitting a wall? In this Golden Palace?" Li Huowang's heart sank.

"Dad," Li Sui suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong? It's not the time to talk now."

"Dad, there are words on your arm."

Hearing Li Sui's words, Li Huowang subconsciously raised his hands and saw that there were words carved with a knife on the inside of his left forearm.

"There's something strange about this place. Time memories will be forgotten, carve them with a knife!"

Li Huowang knew very well that this was his own note, but no matter how hard he searched his memory, he couldn't remember when he carved it.

"Wait! I've seen this scene before!"

Just as Li Huowang was about to take out his knife to carve the words "Xin Zhuo" (distorted heart), he found that the words were already carved on his arm.

And beside these two words, there were others written. "He is nearby, go find him! I have been trapped here for half an hour!"

These words made Li Huowang feel a creepy feeling. In his memory, he had only been in the Golden Luandian for a few minutes, so how could so much time have passed!

At the same time, Li Huowang also felt a deep wound on his thigh.

"I'm injured? When did this happen?!" Li Huowang gritted his teeth and tore open the flesh, only to find a crack in his thigh bone that had been divined.

Obviously, he had divined it for Xin Zhuo without his knowledge.

Remembering the twisted shape of the bone crack and carving it on his hand, Li Huowang began to search inside the Golden Luandian.

During this time, the writings on his arm became more and more numerous.

"Have you searched the southeast corner?"

"I've searched behind the dragon column on the east side, no need to look there."

After quickly searching a few laps, Li Huowang stopped in front of the central area of the Golden Luandian, the only place without any writing reminders.

Looking at the familiar patterns on the golden bricks, Li Huowang's expression became serious as he tightly gripped the handle and forcefully inserted it into that spot.

Although gold was precious, compared to other metals, it was relatively soft. In front of the Zisui Sword that could cut iron like mud, it was really no different from yellow mud.

Li Huowang easily pried open the golden brick, and when he looked inside again, he found that the compacted soil underneath had been piled to one side, revealing a building with a red tiled roof.

This buried building was very small, probably just a little taller than a person. It was similar to some local temples.

Without hesitation, Li Huowang raised the copper coin sword in his hand and shook it from a distance, "Dai Ming Da Tuo La Ji Ji She!"

The roof of the small temple was directly lifted, and a familiar face appeared in front of him. It was Xin Zhuo, the Xin Zhuo corpse that they had brought back with great difficulty!

At this moment, its limbs were completely bent and sewn together with golden threads. Not only its limbs, but also its eyes, mouth, and everything on its body were sewn together with golden threads, turning it into a Xin Zhuo human stick.

Apart from its head and chest, which were covered in gold, it was covered in intertwined swastikas, as if wearing a swastika robe.

These swastikas were not only on its body, but also spread from its body to the surrounding soil.

Li Huowang swung the copper coin sword in his hand again and forcefully pulled Xin Zhuo. Sitting in the small temple, it instantly flew up. As he separated from those golden swastikas, the entire golden palace seemed to dim a bit.

When Li Huowang saw that there were no new writings on his body, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. The trouble was finally over.

He had wasted a lot of time already, Li Huowang couldn't waste any more time. He glanced at Xin Zhuo's body and quickly walked towards the distant exit.

This time, there were no surprises. Li Huowang successfully came out, but before he could relax, he was stunned when he looked at the distant golden palaces. "Wait, could there be a Xin Zhuo under every golden palace?"

"There are, but not all of them." Hong Zhong, who had been silent, spoke again.

"These golden palaces are a kind of star formation. I know very little about which specific one it is. Hehe, it seems that the Xin Zhuo you worked so hard to find has become their formation eye."

Hearing Hong Zhong's words, Li Huowang's face became somewhat ugly. Such a dangerous Xin Zhuo was only worthy of being a formation eye in this place. What exactly were they planning to do?Ignoring everything else, Li Huowang quickened his pace and continued forward. The situation had become dire now that Beifeng was involved in such a dangerous place. He must not let anything happen to him!

Having learned from his past mistakes, Li Huowang tried his best to avoid the golden halls on either side, choosing to walk through the spacious corridors and squares instead.

If there was no other way, he would forcefully dig a hole through the golden wall.

Perhaps Li Huowang's method was effective, or maybe the people ahead had cleared the path for him. Either way, everything was normal for a while.

Following the trail of blood, Li Huowang headed north. When he passed through a high wall, his sharp hearing picked up the sounds of chanting and metal clashing from beyond several walls.

"I've found it!" Unable to contain his excitement, Li Huowang quickly moved towards the source of the sound.

After strenuously passing through another golden wall, the scene before him suddenly opened up.

The first thing that caught his eye was a black and white vertical pupil in the extremely low clouds above. Surrounding the pupil were sixty-four bronze hexagrams floating in the air.
