When you've completed one full circle.
“Boom boom boom boom!————”
Suddenly, a series of booming sounds rang out again in the Underworld Palace!
The group suddenly realized!
The stone slabs beneath their feet began to slowly recede from the octagonal platform toward the eight stone walls!
Through the exposed gap, you can see that it's pitch black below!
It seems like yet another bottomless abyss!

Everyone watching was shocked!
If you fall, you will definitely die without a burial place!
Partridge Whistle and the others hurriedly turned around and headed towards the central Eight-Sided Platform, trying to return to the "safe" area before the floor completely retracted.
Seeing this, Li Xiaohu shouted, "Don't move!"
Then he explained:
"Once the mechanism is activated, the only way to deal with the injustices is to completely dismantle them; otherwise, there is only one way out: death!"
"As long as we can decipher the mechanisms on the eight stone doors before the floor completely retracts!"
"Now!" Li Xiaohu's tone brooked no argument. "Everyone, go back and listen to my instructions!"
Upon hearing this, Partridge Whistle and the others hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to believe Li Xiaohu and turned back to the foot of the stone wall.
Everyone else trusted Li Xiaohu unconditionally.
They immediately returned to the foot of the stone wall to await further instructions.
"Senior brother!" Li Xiaohu continued, "You go and wait in front of the seventh stone wall!"
Jin Suanpan immediately lifted his robe and, before the gap widened, ran back to wait beneath the seventh stone wall.
Next is Partridge Whistle under the second wall.
Li Xiaohu pointed to a funerary object on the wall and said, "Brother Partridge Whistle!"
"Your current location corresponds to the Zhen Palace and the Injury Gate! Your zodiac sign is Wind!"
"The corresponding funerary object is the gold-inlaid jade fan, the first one in the third row from the bottom!"
Partridge Whistle clicked "confirm".
He turned around, grabbed the counter, and jumped up, actually landing directly on the spot Li Xiaohu had mentioned!
Then he quickly moved the base of the gold-inlaid jade fan!
"You go and hurry to the eighth stone wall!"
Next came the old foreigner and Hua Ling.
Both of them completed Li Xiaohu's arrangements very efficiently!
Then came Red Girl!
The girl in red was quite agile; she climbed up the counter in two quick movements to the desired position and moved the artifacts on it!
Finally, it's Yin Xinyue!
Li Xiaohu's brows furrowed, and he instructed, "Yin Xinyue!"
"Your current location is the Xun Palace, with the Du Gate! Your zodiac sign is Thunder!"
"The corresponding funerary object is the bronze cauldron engraved with cloud and thunder patterns, which is the second row and fourth column from the top!"
The voice just fell.
Li Xiaohu sensed something was wrong!
The corresponding funerary objects are almost at the very top of this stone wall!
Yin Xinyue didn't have the same agile skills as the others, nor did she have any tools to use. How could she climb up and manipulate it?
Everyone else noticed this as well.
The girl in red, who lived closest to the house, wanted to help out.
But by this time the gaps between the stone slabs had become increasingly larger, leaving them with less than five feet of space to stand!
Whether or not one can jump across safely is a major challenge!
To everyone's surprise,
Yin Xinyue did not give up because of this difficulty, and reached out and climbed onto the counter.
Although the movements were not smooth.
But they are also striving to climb higher!
Li Xiaohu felt a surge of worry as he looked at Yin Xinyue's unsteady posture!
Then I looked at the increasingly wide gaps between the floorboards.
It is judged that there may not be enough time.
He then turned to face the gilded coffin, adjusted his posture, and took a few steps back!
Then he charged towards the coffin!
He stepped onto the side of the coffin, then used the momentum to leap back towards the stone wall where Yin Xinyue was!
"Ahhh!"
Just in time!
Yin Xinyue lost her footing and fell uncontrollably downwards!
Everyone watching felt a chill run down their spines!
If she just falls to the ground, it won't be a big deal! The real fear is that she'll fall straight into the abyss below!
"Clap!"
Li Xiaohu relied on his scorpion-like ability to climb the city walls backwards.
He stood precariously on the edge of the receding stone slab and then reached out to catch Yin Xinyue as she fell!
"Huh?" Yin Xinyue was still a little confused when she saw Li Xiaohu hugging her.
When did he arrive?
Li Xiaohu ignored her, placed her at the base of the stone wall, and then quickly climbed up and moved the top of the bronze furnace!
The mechanism on the sixth wall of the Golden Abacus has been activated!
He turned around and climbed up to fiddle with a crystal vase!
Based on his deduction.
The wall he's standing on is the Xiumenkan Palace, which belongs to the water element!
The only thing on the entire wall that is related to water is this glass vase.
and so.
Even without Li Xiaohu's arrangement, he felt that he wouldn't have made a mistake!
however.
Just as his hand was about to touch the glass bottle, he heard Li Xiaohu shout in a panic!
"Senior brother, stop!"
Jin Suanpan was taken aback by the shout and reluctantly withdrew his hand.
Looking at Li Xiaohu with a puzzled expression, he asked, "What's wrong now?"
Seeing that the golden abacus had not yet "succeeded," Li Xiaohu breathed a sigh of relief and then explained, "The funerary object corresponding to the Xiumenkan Palace is not that vase!"
"It's the golden Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue below!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Suanpan frowned instantly.
It wasn't that he didn't trust Li Xiaohu.
But Li Xiaohu's answer was so different from his own!
Jin Suanpan asked, puzzled, "Xiao Hu, are you sure?"
"The element of the Xiu Men Kan Palace is water, but this Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva statue doesn't seem to have anything to do with water at all, does it?"
Li Xiaohu chuckled sheepishly and replied, "Kan represents water, but that's just its appearance!"
"In the meaning of the hexagram, the Kan Palace represents the center line, which signifies maintaining one's mind and adhering to the right path!"
"Legend has it that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva once ventured into hell multiple times in order to save his birth mother!"
