Among the ruins, only a gray stone palace stood quietly, intact, and full of the vicissitudes of time.
It is not tall, nor does it have any special aura. It is extremely inconspicuous. If the team had not rested here to recuperate temporarily, they might not have even looked at it when passing by.
On the walls outside the temple, complex ancient characters are engraved one after another, like a scripture, imprinted on the temple body.
"This is an extremely ancient text that has appeared in many places in the Black Stone Ruins. There are rumors that it comes from the previous era, but no one can decipher it..." Yuan Mo, a foundation-building monk from Lingcan Mountain, told Jiang Ming at the right time.
He introduced him with a respectful and humble expression.
Now that he had decided to survive and was implanted with soul thoughts, he simply gave up his attitude completely and wanted to make more contributions and fight for a chance of survival. As long as he could survive, he could save any dignity...
"Oh...a bunch of illiterate people!" Inside the storage ring, Black Sword yelled fiercely and arrogantly: "In those days, even a child with a yellow mouth could recognize the words. The situation is getting worse, the situation is getting worse..."
This old antique from the previous era finally became arrogant at this time.
Jiang Ming's heart moved slightly and he secretly asked for advice: "As expected of Brother Jian, he can even recognize such ancient characters. He is really awesome... Does Brother Jian know what the words on the walls of this palace actually record?"
"From the looks of it, it's most likely a body tempering scripture..."
Black Sword said slowly, and soon finished exploring the text outside the entire palace, and commented: "It's not bad. It's an extremely extraordinary scripture that can inspire some extraordinary secret powers in the world to practice, but
It should be just a basic chapter, suitable for those who are just starting to practice... If it is placed here, it should be used to test disciples."
"And according to what is said at the end of this scripture, there should be subsequent chapters of the scripture inside this palace. However, if you want to get it, you must first understand the basic chapter on the outside. Otherwise, if you enter rashly, you may not be able to understand it.
what happen……"
"Please ask Brother Jian to help translate it!" Jiang Ming felt slightly happy and said quickly. It seems that he was in the Black Wind Demonic Abyss at that time and did not throw this guy away on impulse. It was indeed the right choice.
"It's a trivial matter!" Heijian said nonchalantly. He had just taken advantage of Jiang Ming's Thunder Sword, and now he was doing things actively.
Jiang Ming took advantage of this moment to observe the stone palace.
There are no windows in the palace, only the two stone doors on the front are wide open. The interior is dark and cannot see anything, as if it is a black hole. Even if the spiritual power is injected, it is like a mud cow entering the sea, without any feedback...
"Have you sent someone in?" Jiang Ming looked at Yuan Mo beside him and asked calmly.
Yuan Mo looked embarrassed, but under Jiang Ming's gaze, he still sighed and whispered: "A dozen people were sent in before, but none of them could come out. It should, it should be..."
"Oh? Who are you sending them to?" Jiang Ming said casually.
Yuan Mo couldn't help but glance at Wei Shouguang and others, and then whispered softly: "They are all aboriginal warriors from Xuanguang City."
Wei Shouguang was not far away, listening to the conversation between the two. At this time, he couldn't help but look angry when he heard the words, and he wanted to punch this old guy to death...
Jiang Ming clicked his tongue twice, but shook his head and sighed: "Then you didn't do this carefully enough. Since sending warriors in doesn't work, why don't you send immortal cultivators in to try?"
Yuan Mo opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Could he say he didn't dare? Those casual cultivators seemed like rotten fish, but together they were a considerable force. They dared to manipulate the warriors at will, but
For those who cultivate immortality, they still dare not mess around after all...
Jiang Ming suddenly smiled and waved his hand: "Well, I have made the decision today... You are allowed to send an immortal cultivator from Lingcan Mountain to explore. If there is any chance, then consider him lucky, I won't take any of it, so what?
?』
Yuan Mo's face changed slightly and he hesitated: "This, this is not good..."
"What? Do you think the soul-growing skills in your brains are just for fun?" Jiang Ming said calmly.
Yuan Mo's expression changed and he could no longer say a word.
"It's up to you
Let's choose someone!" Jiang Ming said lightly: "If this great opportunity is given to anyone, I will definitely be very grateful to you..."
The four people in Lingcan Mountain all looked pale at this moment. What kind of opportunity was this? It was obviously a great terror. They did not think that in this strange stone palace, the immortal cultivators could be any better than the warriors...
Moreover, Zhang Shan actually asked Yuan Mo to choose someone, which was obviously trying to break their hearts. No matter who Yuan Mo chose, the final result would not be a good thing for them...
And if this matter spreads, it will definitely be a huge blow to Lingcanshan's reputation.
Yuan Mo looked at the other three people with an ugly expression, unable to make a choice for a long time.
"What, you four are still going to advance and retreat together? It's not impossible!" Jiang Ming said with a smile.
Yuan Mo's body trembled, his eyes full of struggle, and after a moment he finally said in a hoarse voice: "Luo Hao, this opportunity is up to you!"
"Why?" The young male disciple from Lingcanshan suddenly jumped up, his eyes so angry that he seemed to be spitting fire:
"Why don't you two old guys go? Why doesn't she, a ***, go? I am the core genius of Lingcan Mountain, the elder of the next generation, and I order you to go in..."
However, the louder Luo Hao shouted, the weaker the struggling look in Yuan Mo's eyes. He sighed: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I will choose him!"
"Very good, Fellow Daoist Luo, you have the talent to do it..." Jiang Ming smiled.
"No, spare me, I will die in there..." The genius of Lingcan Mountain named Luo Hao was so frightened that his legs were trembling and his whole body was like chaff.
"When you threw us aborigines in there, why didn't you think about whether they would die?"
Wei Shouguang could no longer hold back his anger and yelled: "You monks from the Paradise are the so-called evil cultivators..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jiang Ming glanced at Wei Shouguang, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes. This guy is really brave, facing the monks from Lingcan Mountain
, and dared to curse.
It's one thing to be bullied, but it's another thing to dare to speak out and resist...
After a while, Luo Hao finally walked towards the stone hall step by step with difficulty under the watch of Jiang Ming.
The dark entrance seemed like the mouth of a ferocious beast that preyed on people, swallowing Luo Hao's figure inside and completely disappearing...
After just a few breaths, Jiang Ming suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"Huh? Are you going to die now?"
Because of the soul-seeking technique, Jiang Ming was able to sense Luo Hao's emotional fluctuations, from his resistance before entering the stone palace to his fear when entering...
However, before Jiang Ming had time to sense more emotional information, he suddenly sensed that Luo Hao's soul sea suddenly collapsed, and the wisp of soul thought he planted also completely dissipated.
A genius from Lingcanshan who had perfected his qi training died just a moment after he stepped into the stone palace.
"It seems that not everyone can step into this stone temple."
Jiang Ming stood quietly at the door of the palace, waiting for the black sword to completely decipher and translate the scripture.
Yuan Mo and the other three Lingcanshan monks stood behind with ashen faces, daring not to make any move.
Although they have communication talismans in their hands that can contact other monks of the same sect, under the threat of the soul-seeking technique, any emotional changes will be caught by Jiang Ming, and there is no chance to use them...
The three people now just hope that damn Zhang Shan can suddenly encounter an irresistible beast and die miserably in the ruins, then they will be completely free.
"It's a beautiful thought..." Jiang Ming could sense their mood swings and probably knew what these people were thinking. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart, "Do you want to wait for me to die first? Even if you are thinking too much..."
Soon, Heijian finished translating the scriptures and explained them to Jiang Ming several times, and also made detailed annotations on the meaning of some words and sentences that were difficult to correspond to.
"Astrology!"
Jiang Ming learned the name of this technique, which is a technique that uses starlight to temper the physical body.
"There seems to be something in my mind...
Found some broken memories..." Heijian suddenly said with some doubts: "This technique seems to have existed a long time ago. I seem to have heard its name in the last era... or even older years...
…”
"It's such a big deal?" Jiang Ming was slightly shocked.
"This technique is very complicated, and its ability to attract stars is enough to prove its excellence... But in my memory, there seem to be only a few people who can practice it to become famous... I remember someone once said,
Even the complete star refining technique seems to have flaws after being practiced to the end..."
Jiang Ming frowned slightly, and then shook his head. Why do you care so much? Even if there are flaws, it will be a matter of the future... Practice first and then talk about it.
The fact that it can be recorded by a holy land for cultivating immortals and used to test the disciples' skills... is enough to prove that it is extraordinary.
He closed his eyes slightly and began to comprehend this star alchemy...
A few hours passed and the sky gradually darkened, but Jiang Ming remained still and motionless, and Yuan Mo and others did not dare to make the slightest move.
On the contrary, some of the casual cultivators and aborigines turned their eyes and took this opportunity to quietly leave the place...
Jiang Ming can naturally sense it, but he doesn't care. He has no reason to restrict the freedom of someone who has no enmity or enmity against him.
However, Wei Shouguang and some of the aboriginal people he led stood firmly behind Jiang Ming, with no intention of leaving...
Wei Shouguang, who is used to seeing life and death, knows very well how to ensure personal safety to the greatest extent in this extremely dangerous secret place...
Wow~
Suddenly, a breeze seemed to be swirling around Jiang Ming's body, and traces of the unknown secret power of heaven and earth were seeping into his body.
"It's done!" Jiang Ming opened his eyes, and a ray of divine light flashed from his eyes.
"It doesn't seem too difficult... Could it be that because my basic qualifications have improved, it has become much easier to practice this secret technique?" Jiang Ming thought to himself, it feels like becoming a genius, it is really good.
.
In the past, even if you could understand the meaning of this technique, it would probably take several days to actually get started.
Then he tried to run the star refining technique again. The breeze flowed on his fingertips, and strands of energy penetrated his body. Although it was only a drop in the bucket for his current body, it was a real tempering...
"Although it is called Star Refining Technique, the mysterious energy between heaven and earth can also be absorbed and refined... If I get the full story, it might really be able to take my physical body to a higher level!"
Jiang Ming thought to himself.
This energy is not spiritual power, but some kind of secret power that exists between heaven and earth. Although it is extremely thin, it seems to have a great effect on the physical body.
"It's time to enter the temple and explore..."
Jiang Ming thought to himself and walked slowly towards the entrance of the stone palace.
When Yuan Mo and the other three monks from Lingcan Mountain saw this scene, a trace of irrepressible joy flashed in their eyes. Is this kid finally seeking death?
They didn't think that Zhang Shan could get any opportunities from the stone palace. After all, even the monks from Lingcan Mountain, who had many secret knowledge related to the ruins, could not understand the secrets of this stone palace. This guy
How is it possible...
rustle~
Jiang Ming stepped forward and stopped at the door of the stone palace. The next moment, he slowly stretched out his hand and placed it against the cold and rough wall, and the star alchemy started to work naturally.
Buzz~
No matter how many people in Lingcan Mountain used various methods to detect it, the stone palace that had always been silent suddenly emitted a faint light, and strands of starlight diffused from the hundreds of ancient characters...
The entire temple seemed to come alive at this moment, and the words were slowly moving around the temple like stars rotating.
In the end, all the ancient characters gathered at the door of the palace, broke away from the wall, and formed a portal composed of starlight characters in front of Jiang Ming. The stars were hanging down in the middle, which was extremely mysterious.
"This, how is this possible..." Yuan Mo was stunned and in disbelief.
They tried their best but could not make any movement in this palace. Who is this mountain?
Jiang Ming was also a little surprised. Was Shidian's reaction... too big?
"Brother Jian, are you sure this is normal?" Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, it should be fine?" Hei Jian was a little unsure, and then encouraged: "This looks like the treatment of the chosen one, go in!"
"I believed your evil..." Jiang Ming was speechless, but now that the matter was over, there was no reason to back down.
He calmed down, took one step forward, and stepped into the portal built by starlight text.
Wow~
The scenery in front of him suddenly changed. Jiang Ming looked around and found that he was actually standing in an extremely vast palace. On the dome of the giant palace hundreds of feet high, stars were rotating and hanging down. Xinghui, for a moment, made it difficult for Jiang Ming to distinguish between true and false...
From the stone tablet, Jiang Ming could even faintly feel the vast and mysterious energy fluctuations, as if he was facing the starry sky...
"Is this a fragment of a star?" Jiang Ming couldn't help but guess.
Jiang Ming didn't need to say more, Heijian just said: "It seems that outside the stone palace is indeed the basic chapter, and what is recorded on this stone tablet should be the main chapter. Strange... This scripture is very important for the introduction of the refining star. The power is indeed unique...but it feels a bit scientific. After refining the star power, how to use it to exert its maximum power, the introduction is a bit rough..."
"It's like a picture of a horse. The horse's head is drawn well... and the horse's butt is finished with just two strokes!" Black Sword commented: "No wonder there are rumors that this technique has flaws. It seems to be here... Even if Even if you practice to a great extent, it will be difficult to exert 100% of your strength!"
Immediately, Heijian began to translate the main chapter of the Star Refining Technique to Jiang Ming. However, as Jiang Ming listened, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"This star refining technique...why does it feel like it is too consistent with another technique...?"
"It only focuses on receiving and refining star power, but not on its use... and the other technique requires the use of various secret powers of heaven and earth to practice..."
Jiang Ming murmured in his heart: "It's as if... this entire Star Refining Technique seems to be the prelude to that technique... and was created for that technique..."
He couldn't help but think of the so-called invincible method, the Hundred-Calamity Holy Body, which he had obtained on the Star Road...
