"Don't get me wrong, fellow Taoist Mo. Wu did remind you out of good intentions. Since fellow Taoist doesn't appreciate it, forget it..." vaguely seeing the other party's plan, the man surnamed Wu narrowed his eyes slightly.
But suddenly he thought of something, and then smiled warmly again.
This time it was Mo Juren's turn to be surprised. He thought that there would be a fight, but he didn't expect that the other party chose to retreat, which was a bit beyond his expectation.
Judging from the current situation, the four opponents have an "absolute advantage" and cannot give in. There is only one possibility, that is, they have other plans and plan to retreat in order to advance.
This couldn't help but make him a little curious, and he thought to himself, since you want to play, then let's play, I want to see what tricks I can play?
Thinking of this, he was too lazy to talk nonsense, and immediately strode forward, pushed open the stone door in the eyes of the four people with different expressions, then stepped in, and disappeared in an instant.
"Brother, what are you..." Next to the man surnamed Wu, a middle-aged man in a green robe was a little confused and asked quickly. The other two people also cast doubtful glances.
"Don't worry, there is a reason why I did this." The man surnamed Wu had obviously expected it, and he did not immediately explain. Instead, his body swayed, and the next moment, an illusory figure emerged.
That figure is very special. Judging from the appearance, it is almost exactly the same as himself, but there is a vague and strange fluctuation of mana permeating the whole body, making its entire body dream-like and somewhat unreal.
"Three unique illusions, brother, you have successfully cultivated this top secret technique!" The moment he saw the figure, the man in green robe suddenly showed a look of surprise.
"Even if you practice to a small degree, you can only condense an illusory body." The man surnamed Wu smiled slightly, but there was a trace of unconcealable confidence in his eyes.
"I have long heard that among the seven top secret techniques created by Sect Leader Wu of your sect, this 'Three Absolute Illusionary Body' should be the secret of clones. It is indeed well-deserved. I don't think that Wu Daoyou could actually master this secret technique, which is really enviable.
"The other two people also congratulated.
"It's just a gift from our ancestors, and Wu got it by luck." The man surnamed Wu chuckled, and then, with a thought in his mind, the illusory figure turned into a faint light and flew into the central stone door.
"Big brother asked the phantom body to go, could it be that he was planning to..." The man in green robe was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized it, and there was a vague guess in his heart.
"Isn't that guy named Mo awesome? Let him take the lead. No matter what he encounters or what he gets in the end, it doesn't matter. I can't run away even if my phantom is watching." The man surnamed Wu smiled coldly.
, but then a flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing four spiritual talismans. After handing one to the three of them respectively, he said again,
"It's time for us to set off. It just so happens that the four of us each choose a side entrance. No matter what we gain, it all depends on our own luck. We also try to save time and reunite here later to meet this Taoist named Mo.
Friends."
"Brother Wu is indeed unparalleled in his wits. This arrangement is very appropriate, so I and I will take the first step." The other two people cupped their hands and immediately chose a stone door to enter.
"Let's go too." The monk surnamed Wu nodded, greeted the man in green robe on the side, and entered the remaining two side doors.
……
After the stone gate is a narrow passage, which is not very long. It only takes a few dozen feet to reach the end. There is no obstruction to the exit. After crossing it, the eyes suddenly open up, and it turns out to be a dense forest.
Mo Juren was slightly surprised. He thought it would lead to a palace or something, but he didn't expect to end up in the wild?
I did not go forward immediately, but carefully explored it. As expected, this dense forest is not simple. The forest is filled with colorful and strange mist, which becomes denser the deeper you go.
You don’t need to think clearly that the mist must be highly poisonous. And in the poisonous mist, there are constant rustling sounds, as if there are endless poisonous insects crawling.
"Interesting!" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised. The environment here is similar to the Poisonous Swamp outside, but its severity is obviously worse.
It's not that he is afraid. With his strength, it is not difficult to enter it. He just continues to avoid poisons and insects. Anyway, he is well prepared for coming this time, so there is nothing to worry about.
What's more, there is no need to go through the dense forest, you can just fly at high altitude.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and immediately took off into the air. However, before he could fly forward, a strange scene happened. The dense forest below actually grew rapidly as he soared, seemingly endless.
Always above him.
"This...formation!" Mo Juren was a little shocked. Obviously, this is an effect that can only be achieved by some kind of magic formation. However, he didn't notice any mana fluctuations just now, and what was he?
When you fell into the formation? Could it be the moment you stepped into the stone gate?
He immediately turned around and glanced behind him. Sure enough, there was no passage anywhere, and even the exit where he was standing before had disappeared.
His heart suddenly trembled. It seemed that the situation was more troublesome than he expected. The only good thing was that when it fell to the ground again, the exit that had disappeared also appeared.
Seeing this, he just breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to worry about not being able to find the exit when he came back.
After thinking about it, a golden light suddenly flashed in his hand, and it turned out to be a gold-eating insect the size of a thumb. With a thought, the opponent turned into a golden light and sank into the depths of the ground beneath his feet.
"I can sense some situations." However, at this moment, Yin Yue's voice sounded in his mind, and Mo Juren was immediately delighted. The other party was not disturbed by the illusory array, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.
asked,
"Are you sure?"
"I can only faintly sense a special location, which feels bone-chillingly cold, but I can't be sure what it is."
"It's better to have a sense than to run around in confusion. You can show us the way and we will move forward immediately." Mo Juren made a decision immediately.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Yinyue didn't hesitate and gave the prompt immediately.
After making some preparations, he flew straight towards the forest. Before taking a step, his eyes seemed to glance in the direction behind him inadvertently, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the next moment, he disappeared into the dense forest.<
/p>
Soon, an illusory figure appeared at the entrance. After looking at the dense forest ahead for a moment, his brows furrowed.
Obviously, the harsh environment in the dense forest was somewhat unexpected, but it did not make him flinch. A layer of ripples suddenly appeared on the surface of his body, and his originally illusory body became more and more invisible, as if transparent.
The figure smiled, then turned into a transparent phantom and shot towards the forest.
"It's interesting." In the dense forest, Mo Juren, who was moving very fast, seemed to have noticed something, and he couldn't help but look startled. He thought that the harsh environment in the dense forest would make him retreat, but unexpectedly he followed him. Sure enough, the monks' methods are all kinds of strange, and you really can't underestimate anyone. Especially the one named Wu, who comes from a powerful family and is a monk in the late stage of pill formation, so he must have his own uniqueness.
In fact, after the strange shadow appeared behind him, he was aware of it, and even vaguely guessed some of the other party's plans. He didn't care about this, and was not in a hurry to deal with the other party, so he simply went ahead with the plan.
Withdrawing his thoughts, he turned his attention to the surrounding dense forest. It must be said that the further he walked in, the more poisonous gas filled the air, and the protective aura around him was corroded and flickering.
This is a good thing. He is invulnerable to all poisons, and ordinary toxins can be completely ignored. Instead, he can directly swallow and refine it, improving his own physique.
The poisonous mist in the dense forest is naturally special. It is three times more intense than the colorful poisonous mist outside, exceeding the limit of the poison refining technique.
However, with the rich mana in his body, coupled with some poison-avoiding charms, it can last for a long time. He even deliberately inhales some poisonous mist during the process to refine it, which is a double win.
Suddenly, he suddenly stopped. The illusory and transparent figure behind him, whether due to the influence of the illusory formation, was completely invisible at this moment.
In response to this, he was just startled for a moment, then smiled slightly, but ignored it and continued to move forward. With Silver Moon's guidance, he would not get lost.
His speed was very fast, flying almost close to the ground, and soon he entered the depths of the dense forest. At this time, the poisonous mist around him had become more and more dense, and there were countless poisonous insects surrounding him.
Not only did this make him take a breath of cold air, but with such an overwhelming swarm of various insects, most of them even had strong auras. If he really fell into it, even he might not be able to escape unscathed.
Fortunately, he had already used the Breath Condensation Technique to the extreme in advance, and his own mana and aura had almost completely disappeared, so he did not attract the attention of the poisonous insects.
It flew close to the ground for half an hour, until it flew out from the edge of the dense forest, and finally arrived at the destination indicated by Silver Moon.
The footsteps then stopped, and the eyes looked forward. What came into view was a lake. It was not large, only dozens of miles in diameter, and in the center of the lake, there was an isolated island, with an impressive island built on it.
The lonely bluestone hall.
The moment he saw the main hall, Mo Juren couldn't help but look slightly happy, thinking that all the secrets should be in this stone hall. He was about to fly forward, but when he got close to the lake, he suddenly stopped.<
/p>
He stretched out his hand and waved forward, and a group of lake water was instantly photographed in front of him. After careful observation, he discovered that the lake water was actually as black as ink, and it contained a strange cold aura. It was not ordinary cold, but vague.
A chill that penetrates the bones.
"What you sensed just now is this lake?" Thinking of Yin Yue's reminder just now, Mo Juren asked.
"Yes or no, to be precise, it should be in the center of the island, in the stone palace. There seems to be something there. The bone-chilling coldness is far more terrifying than the surrounding lake water."
"In the stone palace?" Mo Juren's heart stirred, and he immediately let go of his spiritual consciousness to explore forward. Sure enough, he soon discovered an abnormality. What's even weirder is that the coldness doesn't seem to be a dead thing, but seems to be something possessed.
Average intelligence.
With such a discovery, he was not only surprised, but also became more and more curious. Without any hesitation, he immediately took up the Escape and flew forward quickly.
The island is not large, but it is somewhat strangely desolate. There is a layer of light black mist lingering on the ground, which is exactly the same as the cold atmosphere contained in the lake before.
Mo Juren observed carefully and found that the source of all the cold atmosphere was in the stone hall in the center.
He stepped forward and soon arrived in front of the stone palace. Two doors with a height of more than ten feet were tightly closed, and three simple large characters were carved on the top.
"Nine Nether Palace"
Seeing this, Mo Juren was stunned.
These three words are not given casually. They are extraordinary enough to pioneer the pioneers of this place. I don’t know where they come from?
After looking carefully for a while, he found that there were no restrictions on the two stone doors. So, he directly raised his hand and pressed on them. He exerted force with one arm, and with a loud bang, the huge stone door was directed towards him with his terrifying power.
Push inside.
But at this moment, the thick black mist instantly filled the air and enveloped his entire body. The bone-chilling feeling seemed to be all-pervasive and rapidly penetrated into the body.
Seeing this, Mo Juren frowned, and a golden light flashed around him, completely blocking out all the black mist. When the black mist gradually faded and his sight was no longer blocked, he stepped straight into the stone hall.
p>
It was completely different from what he had imagined. There was no gorgeous decoration inside, but it looked extremely crude. Except for a small pool about ten feet in diameter built in the central area, there was nothing special about it.
However, after taking a look around, Mo Juren's originally calm expression suddenly changed.
Not far from the pool, there was a black futon, with a skeleton sitting cross-legged on it. Judging from the appearance of the undamaged dress, it should be a woman, with slightly delicate hands.
Moving an unknown seal, he has obviously been dead for a long time.
Mo Juren's eyes couldn't help but look at the opponent's waist. There was a palm-sized black leather bag there, which was a storage bag. The use of this material and shape must have come from ancient times.
The treasure was close at hand, but he did not act immediately. Instead, he let go of his spiritual consciousness and continued to carefully explore the hall. After several times, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he reached out and took in the storage bag.
In hand.
Looking at the bulging storage bag, he couldn't help but feel a little happy, and then he reached into his consciousness to check it.
As expected of an ancient monk, there are quite a lot of good things stored inside, including numerous ancient treasures of all kinds.
However, the largest number of them are various jade bottles of different colors and sizes. There are hundreds of them. After inspection, it was found that they were all filled with refined elixirs.
p>
Mo Juren couldn't help but guess that this woman was probably a master of alchemy. Otherwise, it would be impossible to carry such a large number of different types of elixirs with her.
Sure enough, after he checked the contents of the dozen or so jade slips inside, he could basically confirm that this woman had studied the alchemy path very deeply and had most likely reached the level of a master.
These jade slips are the inheritance left by the other party. They contain a large number of elixir recipes and alchemy techniques from ancient times, and their value is immeasurable.
And through the information revealed between the lines in these jade slips, he also roughly understood the identity of the woman. She turned out to be a Nascent Soul stage elder from the Jiuyou Sect, one of the ten major sects of the Dajin Immortal Realm in the Jin Dynasty.
No wonder the main hall was named Jiuyou. It turned out to be this reason. The specific name of the other party is not known, but she has a title, called 'Fairy Xuanyou'. It seems that she was also a famous existence in ancient times.
As for why it appeared in Tiannan, it is unknown.
There is also a special jade slip inside, which is not some alchemy inheritance, but a detailed map. Not only does it record the situation here, but also the places leading to the other four side doors are clearly recorded.
These four places actually lead to four medicine gardens respectively. In such a long time, even the most common elixir must have grown to the level of more than ten thousand years. It is no exaggeration to say that it is priceless.
Mo Juren was naturally tempted, but he was not anxious at all, because he could not escape after all.
Instead, his eyes turned to the pool in the center. The jade slips clearly recorded that there was a strange elixir growing in the pool.
However, when he looked at the dark pool water, he didn't find anything. His spiritual consciousness penetrated into it. However, it only penetrated to a distance of more than a hundred feet, and it was as if it was frozen by the extreme cold and could no longer move forward.
.
"No?" Mo Juren frowned, feeling something was wrong in his heart.
I had sensed it when I was outside, and there was a cold aura that seemed to have intelligence inside the stone palace, but why didn't I notice anything after entering?
Apart from the skeleton next to it that has been dead for who knows how many years, there is no other suspicious place. If there is really a problem, it can only be the puddle in front of you.
