After the students who had a nervous breakdown were comforted, Teacher Mo Pan continued to introduce the props in the showroom.
He pointed to a crown woven with vines and blooming with burning flowers, and said:
"Forest crown, a mountain god professional item. Its functions are strange strength, endurance, self-healing and refining."
Hey, the functions overlap very much with the Mountain God Scepter. Self-healing and strange power seem to be the skills of the Wood Demon. I always thought that the Mountain God Scepter was special. It seems that the functions of the mountain god level props are actually the same as those of the Mountain God Scepter.
Wood demon coincidence?
——The mountain god was transformed from a soil monster, and the wood demon became a beast king after his transformation.
As soon as Zhang Yuanqing thought this, he heard Brother Red Rooster ask:
"Why are the Mountain God's props and functions so similar to those of the Wood Demon? They are obviously two different professions."
No matter when there is a fire master by his side, it is always a good thing! Zhang Yuanqing muttered in his heart and looked at Teacher Mo Pan, waiting for his reply.
The rigorous and gentle Mo Pan spoke for a few seconds before explaining:
"Among the native lawful professions, scouts, wood demons, water ghosts, fire masters, and earth monsters respectively symbolize metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. According to the Five Elements Theory, all things in the world are composed of five elements.
"Their source is chaos. Chaos generates yin and yang, and yin and yang are divided into five elements. Spiritual scholars speculate that the five professions of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are closely related. When certain conditions are met, the five professions will burst out with unimaginable power."
"When the Five Elements Alliance was first established, a project was set up to study the five professions. I read relevant papers from more than ten years ago in the family's database." Zhao Feiwen, from a bachelor's family, recalled:
"That paper was published sixteen years ago, and there is no follow-up."
Xia Hou Aotian interjected: "So, the research is considered a success?"
While the three bachelors were discussing, Zhang Yuanqing inexplicably thought of the rogue disk, oh no, the yin and yang wheel. The item attributes of this prop mentioned:
"An outstanding craftsman discovered the secrets of the five lawful professions of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. He used the top materials of the five professions as the foundation and the spirit of the bachelor as the core to create a powerful and wise tool called Yin Yang.
Turntable."
Recalling that the Yin-Yang Turntable is an important prop of the Huaihai Branch, it is not difficult to speculate that a group of technicians (bachelors) established the research of the five major professions under the leadership of the official.
The Yin-Yang Turntable was born at that time, but later, due to encountering unkind people, the pure thing fell into the dust of the world, and it is difficult to say anything about it from now on.
"What about this?"
Brother Red Rooster listened for a long time but didn't understand, so he pointed at a golden rope and forcibly interrupted the bachelors' discussion.
"Oh, this is the Fairy Binding Rope, a top-notch prop with self-awareness. It prefers to tie up girls, so don't worry about it, let's continue!" Teacher Mo Pan forcibly changed the subject.
Please explain clearly what it means to like to tie up girls. Zhang Yuanqing suddenly became interested and was about to ask in detail. Suddenly, he sensed the thoughts of Princess Yinyao coming from the mark of the sea of consciousness:
The stone door is open!
The princess is great!
He immediately calmed down his emotions and separated half of his spirit body into the Yin Corpse (Princess Yin Yao).
Suddenly, his perception seemed to become a computer screen, half of it was a showroom, and half was the bottom of a dark lake.
Behind him is an open stone door, and behind him is a stone staircase going down. A heavy backpack is hanging around his neck, and he is holding a jade plate in his hand.
After Zhang Yuanqing examined himself, he put the jade plate into a cloth bag and walked down the stone steps.
"The princess's sleeping talisman only lasts for fifteen minutes. You must come out within fifteen minutes, otherwise you will be blocked by the Sharks, the academy teachers, and the Tiger King."
Time is limited, but you must not be careless when exploring unknown secrets.
He took out the drum-beating and purple-gold hammer, turned it into a round shield, and illuminated himself with the smooth mirror-like surface of the shield.
In the "mirror", his palace of misfortunes is shrouded in blood, and his palace of wealth shines brightly.
Zhang Yuanqing showed up, with a typical "became a young model in a club, but returned to the spiritual realm after defeat" appearance, and bared his teeth for a while.
The bloody disaster meant that if he forced himself deep into the secret realm, there was a 90% chance that he would die inside. Well, it was Princess Yinyao who would die inside.
The steps are about three meters wide, and the stone walls on both sides are rugged and uneven.
Zhang Yuanqing, wearing a Yin-Yang robe, controlled the water flow and formed a vortex around him to defend himself.
"The water here is very calm, with almost no undercurrents. The air under the water is mixed with a strong stale smell. It is stagnant water that has been closed for many years."
He walked along the steps for two or three minutes and suddenly stopped.
Beside the steps in front, two highly decomposed corpses were sitting on the ground, one on the left and one on the right, with their backs leaning against the stone wall, their heads hanging down. Their clothes were in tatters and their hair was withered and sparse.
Zhang Yuanqing "saw" strong yin energy and resentment from the two corpses.
He was considering whether to use the Star Escape Technique to bypass it, when the hanging head of the corpse on the left suddenly twisted ninety degrees and looked at Zhang Yuanqing.
This was an extremely horrific face, swollen and rotten, with worms crawling in the eye sockets and nasal cavity, and black lips.
Immediately afterwards, another infernal corpse also turned its head, and two pairs of worm-twisting white pupils stared at it fiercely.
The next second, two Yin corpses rushed over, carrying the turbulent undercurrent.
No wonder the underwater air was so smelly. Zhang Yuanqing took a step back, raised his foot, and kicked the belly of the Yin Corpse that was the first to pounce.
His first feeling was that they were heavy and stiff. The bodies of the two Inferi were not as rotten as their faces.
The lower abdomen of the Inferi was kicked, and it inevitably floated into the air.
Zhang Yuanqing ignored it, stretched out his hand to pinch the neck of the other corpse, and quickly drew on its forehead with his other hand.
The power of Taiyin quickly outlines a talisman full of Taoist charm and imprints it on the forehead of the Yin Corpse.
In an instant, the Yin Qi in this ferocious and violent Yin corpse was blocked, and it lost all ability to move.
At this time, the Yin corpse that floated up after being kicked came back. Zhang Yuanqing followed the same method and solved it with a corpse suppressing talisman.
"The Level 4 Inferi. Fortunately, I am a star official. If it were another saint, it would not be that simple to deal with them. Are these two Inferi the guardians? It seems that I am close to the treasure."
Zhang Yuanqing carried the two corpses and continued to move forward. After a while, the descending steps came to an end, and there was a corridor in front of him.
He exhaled the power of Taiyin and summoned the Ghost Bride. Unable to speak underwater, he said in the unique communication method of the Night Walker God:
"Madam, you possess the body of the Inferi and pass through the corridor."
The ghost bride blessed her body, attached herself to the back of the infernal corpse, and blended into it.
Zhang Yuanqing stood aside, watching the Yin Corpse walk towards the corridor. After taking a few steps, a sword flashed and the head of the Yin Corpse rolled down.
Zhang Yuanqing immediately raised his head and looked up the corridor.
Looking through the darkness, he saw a two-finger-long pocket sword hanging on the uneven top.
The headless Inferi continued to move forward. Ten seconds later, another sword light slashed down, and its left arm was severed at shoulder level.
The headless Inferi continued to move forward, and finally reached the end of the corridor after being slashed four times.
"Husband, here are the steps leading up. Do you need me to go up and check?" the ghost bride's voice came from afar.
"No, just wait there."
Zhang Yuanqing replied and looked up at the small pocket sword. This should be a prop.
He hesitated and did not take away the small sword for fear of causing a bad reaction. After confirming that the ghost bride was safe, he turned into a dreamy starlight in the water, walked through the corridor, and came to the ghost bride.
There is indeed an upward corridor in front of me.
It has been almost five minutes since he entered here, and there are still ten minutes left. He seizes the time and quickly goes up the steps. From time to time, he takes out his purple gold shield and takes a picture to check the changes in his face.
After walking upward for two or three minutes, Zhang Yuanqing saw the water.
Yes, further up is the water surface, which should be the belly of the main peak of Baishou Island.
"The secret realm behind the stone gate is inside the mountain. However, Baihuahui did not split the mountain directly, which means that it cannot enter through normal channels. The only way to get to the mountain is through the stone gate." He thought in his mind and ordered the mutilated Inferi beside him:
"Madam, come up and have a look."
The biggest advantage of a spiritual servant is that as long as it does not encounter the lunar sun, thunder and lightning, no matter how great the danger is, it will not be harmed at all.
The Ghost Bride immediately controlled the Inferi to move up and out of the water along the steps.
In just two or three seconds, Zhang Yuanqing sensed the ghost bride above and conveyed violent mental fluctuations:
"Husband, husband."
Her mental fluctuations were very abnormal, and she was in a state of boiling emotions.
What did she see? Zhang Yuanqing endured curiosity and communicated with the spirit servant: "Is there any danger?"
"No."
After receiving the reply, Zhang Yuanqing immediately climbed up the steps and emerged from the water.
My eyes suddenly opened up, and a spectacular scene came into view.
This is an unimaginably wide grotto. The black ceiling is studded with countless gems and pearls, shining with brilliant light, as bright as the stars and as vast as the night sky, reflecting the grotto brightly.
Under the grotto is a huge single-family palace with flowing eaves and flying tiles, standing majestic on a white jade platform.
The Han white marble platform is a hundred meters high, trapezoidal, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The white marble steps extend from the front of the palace to the bottom.
In the center of the white marble steps is a Danbi stone carved with cloud patterns, which is very similar to the stone steps of the Forbidden City in Beijing.
An underground palace.
On both sides of the white marble steps, there stood a clay man wearing a strong sword, holding a spear or a sword on his waist, standing motionless.
Under the white marble platform, there are also densely packed clay figures, forming a square formation, standing silently, like a well-disciplined army.
A simple visual inspection shows that there are thousands of clay figures.
The corresponding term subconsciously appeared in Zhang Yuanqing's mind - Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the First Emperor.
At this time, the place where he stood was the pool at the edge of the grotto, about thirty meters away from the terracotta warriors and horses, with flat white marble bricks between the two sides.
"Why does it look a bit like the Tomb of the First Emperor?"
Zhang Yuanqing took back the white orchid, murmured in a low voice, climbed up the steps and stepped on the stone bricks.
The moment he stepped into this grotto, the terracotta warriors and horses army in the distance suddenly turned their heads and faced Zhang Yuanqing with their stiff and dull faces.
Zhang Yuanqing's scalp felt numb, and he quickly put on his sliding shoes, lucky necklace, Beast King bracelet, and Windbreaker gloves, and held on to the purple gold shield.
"Huhu~"
There was a strong wind in the grotto, and he took advantage of the wind and flew towards the white marble platform a hundred meters high.
I don't plan to go head-to-head with these terracotta warriors and horses.
More than a thousand terracotta warriors and horses all raised their heads and stared at the intruders in the sky with stiff faces.
They neatly removed the hand crossbow hanging from their waist, raised it, and pulled the trigger.
Boom~
The sound of hundreds of bowstrings twisted into one sound, resounding throughout the cave.
Arrows flew up into the air like locusts.
Zhang Yuanqing waved his left hand, and the strong wind turned into two wind blades, slashing at the arrows. At the same time, he curled up in the air and raised his round shield.
The Windbreaker's gloves can swing out at most two wind blades at a time. The arrows are too fast and he only has time to swing them once.
Ding ding ding!
The crossbow arrows fell on the round shield like a rainstorm, causing spiderweb-like gaps to appear in this sturdy shield.
What the hell?!
Zhang Yuanqing's arm holding the shield felt numb, and the purple gold shield showed signs of damage in the first wave of arrows.
That's right, after all, Qin Feng Academy is a master-level dungeon. Even if the core difficulty of the hidden mission is the key, the crisis inside is not something that a saint can resist.
Zhang Yuanqing used the Star Escape Technique without hesitation and returned to the ground.
As soon as he landed, he saw thousands of troops charging towards him. At the front was a row of infantrymen holding spears.
He dodged to avoid the thrusts of the two spears, and the purple gold shield in his hand melted and condensed into a small pumpkin.
"Bang! Bang! Bang"
Wearing the Beast King Bracelet, he possesses super high balance, flexibility, and strength, and with his relatively superb fighting skills, he can dodge and move among the thousands of troops and smash the terracotta warriors and horses.
But after being stabbed twice in the lower abdomen, he gave up resistance. It is impossible for an individual to pass through an army of thousands of people without taking a single blow.
The power of these terracotta warriors and horses is extremely great, and the penetration power of their spears is astonishing. Even an Inferi of Princess Yinyao's level almost broke through after receiving two spears.
Zhang Yuanqing turned into starlight and dissipated, bypassing the terracotta warriors and horses, and came to the stone steps leading to the high platform.
He raised his eyes and glanced, there were twenty warriors on the stone steps, wearing the same armor, holding the same bronze swords, and hanging crossbows on their waists.
Only then did Zhang Yuanqing discover that the armor worn by the figurines on the steps was not earthen, but real.
At the end of the stone steps is a tall archway with a crystal plaque hanging on the archway, vaguely containing the three words "Eternal Life Palace".
At this time, the terracotta warriors and horses standing on both sides of the stone steps all turned their heads and looked down at the enemies under the steps.
The two human figurines at the bottom are only three steps away from Zhang Yuanqing. The one on the left is wearing Qin Dynasty style monolithic armor and holding a sharp bronze sword.
It stared at Zhang Yuanqing and sent out mental fluctuations: "Who broke into the palace of the First Emperor without permission!"
After saying that, the human figurine that was exactly the same as the one on the right jumped up at the same time.
Jump chop!
Zhang Yuanqing passed between the two human figurines with a sliding shovel, turned around quickly, and swung out a small pumpkin.
Bang bang!
The two human figurines exploded into pieces and turned into black clods.
The armor is just a decoration and has no defensive capabilities? Zhang Yuanqing perked up, but he was too happy. The scattered pieces shook violently and quickly reunited like a magnet.
The two terracotta warriors were restored to their original appearance.
Recovered, recovered?! Zhang Yuanqing was shocked.
He immediately turned into starlight and dissipated. When he reappeared, he had passed ten terracotta warriors in one breath and reached the middle of the white marble steps.
He planned to use star escape to reach the palace directly.
At this moment, one of the ten warriors who were left behind took off his crossbow and pulled the trigger.
Boom!
The bowstring vibrated, and arrows shot out.
Zhang Yuanqing turned sideways to avoid it, only to see the arrow change its trajectory and fly diagonally towards him.
"Ding!"
Mark? The prop of the bewitching demon?! In desperation, he waved the little pumpkin to break the arrow, and the force of the shock instantly numbed the tiger's mouth.
Are the terracotta warriors on the steps equipped with magical weapons?
This thought flashed through his mind, and he immediately saw twenty soldiers and warriors above and below. At the same time, he took off the crossbow and aimed it at himself.
And further down, the army of soldiers and warriors had already rushed up the steps.
"Boom!"
The sound of the bow strings was like thunder.
Amidst the crossfire of arrows, Zhang Yuanqing disappeared and entered the night tour.
Night travel can shield the mark of the bewitching demon.
After becoming invisible, he immediately ran towards the end of the stone steps. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a bowstring vibrating behind him.
The next second, two sharp arrows penetrated the back, and the bronze arrowhead was exposed from the chest.
How could it be possible? Zhang Yuanqing couldn't believe it.
Suddenly, he saw a brass round mirror hanging under the plaque of "Eternal Life Palace" in front of him, and his figure was reflected in the mirror.
I understood immediately.
This brass mirror is a prop that can be used to spy on night tours.
The First Emperor had all the messy props. He took a deep breath, entered the night tour again, avoided the three arrows, and looked down from a high position.
Densely packed terracotta warriors are coming along the white marble steps, led by the ten special terracotta warriors.
In front of him, there were ten warriors. They were looking at the brass mirror, either raising their crossbows to take aim, or waving their bronze swords towards them.
I can't deal with these terracotta warriors and horses alone. There may be a more dangerous boss in the Changsheng Palace. If I force my way through, the princess will definitely die. Zhang Yuanqing sighed in his heart and pressed down with his hands.
A strong wind rose from the ground, pushing him up high and flying out of the stone steps.
retreat!
Zhang Yuanqing controlled the strong wind and cooperated with the star escape technique to escape quickly.
Refining room.
With a "click", the pearl formed by the shark's tears shattered. Zhang Yuanqing held the small carving knife with his fingers and sighed.
Weapon refining is a delicate job, but it is too difficult to do two things at once. This is the fifth mermaid teardrop he has damaged.
I can't handle the danger of the Changsheng Palace on my own. I have to find helpers, but where can I find helpers from Qinfeng Academy? Zhang Yuanqing felt a headache.
"Yuanshi Tianzun, it seems that you don't have the talent to refine weapons." Teacher Mo Pan shook his head in disappointment: "I suggest you don't try again. Ten thousand yuan per teardrop is not expensive, but it is not necessary."
Although the students' expenses in the academy are directly related to the teachers' commissions, he does not want to go too far, thinking that this is not what intellectuals should do.
"Teacher, you are right." Zhang Yuanqing put down the carving knife and said, "I want to go upstairs and experience the Mirror of Destiny now, is that okay?"
