Chapter 191 ~ Chapter 192 God King Jiang Taixu(1/3)
The dark ancient mine was completely silent with no sound. Ye Fan stood for a long time and thought a lot. In the end, he did not change his mind and chose to move on.
He walked forward alone, taking his time, paying attention to everything around him, but there were no more carvings on the rock wall, and everything just now was finished.
After traveling for more than thirty miles, the soil on the ground suddenly became so soft that the soles of your feet could be completely submerged when you stepped on it, turning it into gray-white color.
At first, Ye Fan didn't pay attention, but after walking a few hundred feet, he felt that it was getting colder and colder. The yin energy here was extremely heavy, as if the north wind was blowing snow on him.
When he stepped on a hard object and made a cracking sound, Ye Fan suddenly understood what kind of place he had come to.
The gray-white color on the ground is not ordinary soil, but ashes. There are still dry bones that have not been completely melted inside. The yin energy is emitted from these ashes.
As a monk, he was not afraid, but he had to think about how many human bones it would take to accumulate these ashes.
He quickly thought of the peerless divine source in this dragon vein. When it was born, there were mountains of bones and rivers of blood. Could it be caused by that terrifying creature hundreds of thousands of years ago? All those who collected the source in the past rested here.
…
After walking far away, the gray-white ashes still have not reached the end, and a thick layer has accumulated in the ancient mine.
"Click"
After walking for several hundred meters, the ashes were finally gone, replaced by dead bones, densely packed and scattered everywhere. They had long since decayed. If you step on them lightly, they would turn to ashes. Under the power of time, nothing can last long.
When we arrived here, the ancient mine was already like an ice cellar, and the cold air scraped against people's skin like a knife.
"No wonder the magic bats live here. As recorded in ancient books, they like to live on the edge of dangerous places."
Ye Fan was on high alert. He didn't want to lose his life inexplicably in the ancient mine before he entered Zishan.
"Woooo..."
The dark wind was howling, and shadows were blurred. Among the piles of withered bones, hazy ghostly shadows appeared one after another, very faint.
"Is there really such a thing?" Ye Fan was surprised.
He raised the stone knife in his hand and walked forward unswervingly. This two-foot-long ancient knife seemed to have the power to ward off evil spirits, and the traces retreated one after another.
"Wow!"
Among the piles of dead bones ahead, there was the sound of iron ropes. Ye Fan's heart trembled, and he felt the cold evil aura.
He pressed against the mine wall and moved forward silently, his breath all over his body was covered by the stone clothes, and no trace of it leaked out.
Just over a hundred feet ahead, there was a deep, dark hole in the rock wall of the mine, and the sound of the swaying iron ropes came from inside.
The hole was very deep, and the biting coldness was frightening. It turned into a tangible substance and overflowed. When it touched the human skin, it felt like a needle prick.
Ye Fan hurriedly put down the cover on his stone helmet, covering his eyes and face.
Deep in the black hole, there was an inaudible roar, accompanied by the sound of the iron rope shaking, as if a vicious object was locked.
It can be clearly seen that there are many ghost figures among the piles of dead bones, which are shattered with the roaring sound, turned into Yin Qi, and swallowed into the black hole.
"What is this?!" Ye Fan frowned. He was definitely not a kind person, but probably a super evil thing.
You know, hundreds of thousands of years ago, many collectors and monks died here, bleeding and drifting away. After so many years, it is normal for evil spirits to be born.
"It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it doesn't block my progress." He made a secret assessment and felt that the vicious creature would not rush out, so he carefully walked around it and continued walking deeper into the mine.
"Perhaps, this stone garment really has some strange effects, and filthy things cannot get on it."
After walking a long distance, the dead bones finally disappeared. The ancient mine was very dry and there was nothing left.
Ye Fan estimated the distance and found that it was about thirty-five miles deep. I'm afraid it wouldn't be too far from Zishan.
After walking for another four or five miles, there was light coming from the front, swaying unsteadily and very soft.
This surprised Ye Fan. He had just walked through the pile of dead bones. He thought that he must have entered a dangerous place and it would become more and more dangerous.
However, just a few miles away, there was a strong spiritual energy blowing towards his face, making people feel peaceful.
"Just after walking out of the pile of corpses, the Pure Land actually appeared?"
The cry of cranes could be heard in front of him. This was not an illusion, because he had actually seen it.
After walking for several miles, a bright world emerged before our eyes. There was no longer darkness in the ancient mine, soft brilliance circulated, and there was peace and holiness.
"This is the breath of the source!"
Although it is bright, you can't see very far. The fog flows, blocking people's sight.
Ye Fan was in a daze. The mist was formed after the source was opened, and it was the strong life essence.
"Lingyuan essence is overflowing, there must be a lot of sources here..." Ye Fan searched, but found nothing.
The Origin Qi was stirring, the light was shining, and a crane spread its wings and passed by, as if it hadn't seen him, soaring in the ancient mine.
"This is..." Ye Fan was quite surprised.
"Ouch..." Then he saw another earth dragon, with a lizard body and dragon scale armor, crawling past not far away. Its huge body looked very heavy.
Then, a group of fiery red birds flew by, flapping their wings, causing the air to surge violently.
"How come there are creatures?"
He was wearing stone clothes, and these creatures did not feel his breath. He stood in a daze in the middle of the field.
According to Ye Fan's understanding, this is a dead place, and there can't be anything there, but at the moment it is a bit incomprehensible to him.
"Origin Qi...is formed by the formation of Origin Qi!" Ye Fan was suddenly shocked and said: "There is absolutely no way there is such a creature underground."
"There is a divine source here!" He thought of the legends he heard in the stone village. When some divine sources are leaked, they will transform into various inexplicable creatures, roaring around.
There was a sudden excitement in his heart. If he found the source of the gods, it would be a huge harvest! It would be a treasure that even the Holy Land would fight for, even if they were embarrassed.
Ye Fan held the stone knife and stood in front of him, searching for it in the dense spiritual energy.
"Click"
There was the sound of bones cracking under his feet, and he frowned. There were many bones in such a peaceful place.
"Hey, this is..." Ye Fan was shocked. These bones could not have been left over hundreds of thousands of years ago. They were very hard and shiny.
He squatted down in the mist, looked carefully, and saw more than a dozen skeletons one after another. Some bones were thousands of years old, while some bones seemed to be no more than a few hundred years old.
"It seems that over the years, people have mistakenly entered here from time to time..." Ye Fan felt awe-inspiring in his heart. These people all died here. This peaceful place is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
Cranes, earth dragons, flocks of fiery red birds, and other creatures were circling and running around.
In addition, Ye Fan discovered many huge deep pits, all of which were fossilized bones and some strange ancient creatures.
He felt that this place was very strange, so he slowly moved forward in the ancient mine. After walking for more than a mile, he finally came to the place with the strongest spiritual energy.
In addition, he felt a terrible murderous intention here, and his heart was throbbing.
Right in front, there are two bottomless holes. One has spiritual energy soaring into the sky, with origin energy constantly rolling upwards, while the other has evil energy soaring into the sky, which is more terrifying than the sharpest sword light, making people tremble.
The two were very close to each other, and there was silence around them.
"Yin Yang eyes!"
Ye Fan was really surprised. These two black holes were very similar to the yin and yang eyes in the Tai Chi diagram. If you draw a circle around them, it would be a natural Tai Chi diagram.
In fact, they are indeed operating like this. The hole that spits out the source energy is surrounded by fossilized bones, and the evil energy is strong. The hole that shoots out the evil energy is surrounded by sparkling light, and the source stones are everywhere.
Negative Yin and embrace Yang, negative Yang and embrace Yin, this is completely a natural Tai Chi diagram, not man-made, this is the power of nature.
"Contains the divine power of the great avenue!"
Ye Fan was shocked in his heart. No wonder Yuantian Master of the Zhang family repeatedly emphasized that the general trend of this place cannot be moved. It cannot be moved. You can know the work at a glance. You can know the whole leopard by looking at the pattern of a spot. You can know the cold winter by seeing the ice on an eaves.
Before entering Zishan, we saw such a landscape. We can imagine how terrifying this place is.
It is indeed a natural Tai Chi diagram, where the source energy and the evil spirit flow together, cutting across the front.
Ye Fan saw many dead bones in front of this natural Tai Chi diagram. He had to squat down to observe carefully. If the ancestor of the Zhang family died here, there would be no need for him to move on.
There are more than twenty dry bones in total. Judging from their bone quality, they have been around for thousands to tens of thousands of years, and they have all been pierced by the sword energy.
Ye Fan picked up a dead bone and threw it towards the natural Tai Chi diagram.
"Chi"
The source energy and evil energy circulated, forming thousands of sword rays, and the withered bone was instantly wiped out.
He used his divine power to try to break through the surrounding mine walls and find another way out, but the divine image had a spirit, and the sword energy crisscrossed it directly.
The supreme power formed by nature made Ye Fan's heart tremble. With such a divine plan blocking it, how could he get past it? It was simply invincible.
Ye Fan checked carefully and found that these bones on the ground should all be strong men, but no one could rush through them. They were all pierced and killed here.
There is a body with white bones and even dots of silver light. The bones are very special. At first glance, it looks like a super person, but it is still inevitable to die.
Ye Fan searched carefully and found many broken weapons. In front of a delicate skeleton, he found a jade pendant with the word "Yaochi" engraved on it.
This made his heart move, and he searched carefully, but unfortunately there were no other relics, let alone the Yaochi mental technique he needed.
"How to get over?" According to Ye Fan's understanding, the ancestor of the Zhang family thousands of years ago was not very advanced and could not move very far.
"He can reach places, and I should be able to reach them too. Did he shatter here, or did he go inside?"
Ye Fan wandered outside the Tai Chi diagram, sacrificed the cauldron of mother energy of all things, gritted his teeth, and prepared to test whether the cauldron could withstand such sword energy.
"Rumble"
