Chapter 557: The inheritance of Wusheng Sword Sect
Ye Changsheng grabbed the slate and weighed it carefully. After finding nothing, he put the slate away without further exploration.
Then he carefully observed other places in the palace, but found nothing. Apart from this stone slab, there was nothing else.
After conducting a detailed inspection, Ye Changsheng left the palace and then flew out of the space.
Standing in the sky above the desert, he recalled the locations of the other four locations, then picked the one closest to him, flapped his wings behind his back, and flew over quickly.
The second location was located on a high mountain, inside an inconspicuous cave halfway up the mountain. After breaking through some restrictions, Ye Changsheng also entered an independent space.
The layout of this space was the same as the previous one in the desert. After breaking the restrictions here, Ye Changsheng also found a broken stone slab inside.
The two stone slabs were obviously broken from the same thing. Ye Changsheng brought the two stone slabs together, observed them, and connected them together in the same direction.
When the two broken stone slabs came into contact, a bright white light erupted from the spot where they met.
After the white light dissipated, the original cracks disappeared without a trace, and the two stone slabs merged into one.
Seeing this scene, Ye Changsheng had an idea in his mind.
He quickly left this space and rushed to the next place.
Ye Changsheng went to an island, a forest and a volcano one after another, and found a broken stone slab in each of these three places.
When he attached the last stone slab to the fracture, a burst of bright white light lit up. Countless runes were swimming in the white light, and an invisible wave spread.
"It has the power of space!" Ye Changsheng thought in his heart.
Because of the sky phoenix wings, he is relatively sensitive to the power of space, so he can easily sense the space fluctuations emanating from this white light.
The white light dissipated, and a stone, compass-like instrument appeared in Ye Changsheng's hand. Some strange patterns were distributed around the compass, but in the center was a pointer, specifying a certain direction.
Ye Changsheng held the compass and shook it, and found that the compass pointer also rotated with the rotation of the compass, and its tip always pointed in the same direction.
"This is..." Ye Changsheng's eyes showed a thoughtful look.
The direction pointed by this compass should undoubtedly be the secret that the Jiaochi tribe is pursuing. However, the power of space in the compass shows that the function of this object is not simply to specify the direction.
"It seems to be somewhat similar to the reverse star chart!" Ye Changsheng thought in his mind.
Holding this magic weapon, he looked at it carefully for a while and then immediately flew in the direction pointed by the compass.
Far north of the center of the Guanghan Realm, there is a vast grassland. There are not many powerful ferocious beasts living on the grassland, so it is considered a relatively safe area in this world.
But while it is safe, it also means that the spiritual energy in this area is relatively low. In fact, the concentration of spiritual energy in this grassland has always been less than half of that in other places in the Guanghan World.
With such low aura, most of the monks, let alone local creatures, are not willing to come to this grassland.
The grassland is vast as far as the eye can see, and there are no ruins or restrictions. There are no elixirs growing, and there are no special minerals. This is just the most ordinary grassland.
It is precisely because of this that when the Guanghan Realm was opened, almost no monks from all races would come here. On the maps mastered by monks from all races, this grassland had long been listed as a worthless land.
But on this day, a green light appeared on this grassland in the distance at an alarming speed.
"The position pointed by the compass should be right here!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself as he held a stone compass in his hand.
After entering this grassland, the pointer on the compass suddenly jumped and trembled. At the same time, the compass also emitted a dull white light, and a scorching temperature came from it.
After Ye Changsheng continued to fly forward for hundreds of thousands of miles in the direction pointed by the compass, suddenly the pointer on the compass started to rotate crazily.
As it rotates rapidly, the compass becomes hotter and hotter, and the white light emitted from the surface becomes more intense.
Suddenly!
"Buzz!"
There was a tremor, and a golden beam of light suddenly shot out from the center of the compass and rushed towards the sky.
"boom!"
When the golden beam of light rushed to a height of ten thousand feet, it suddenly stopped as if it was blocked by something, and made a roaring sound.
Immediately afterwards, a rumble of thunder sounded, and there was a burst of lightning and thunder high in the sky. In the blink of an eye, the originally clear sky turned into a dense cloud.
Among the dark clouds as thick as a curtain, purple lightning flashed from time to time, illuminating the dark sky.
The golden beam of light continued to spray out from the compass, as if a thick stick reached into the dark clouds in the sky and began to stir.
With the golden light pillar as the center, the surrounding dark clouds rotated and immediately formed a deep vortex. The vortex appeared in the sky like a passage.
Ye Changsheng narrowed his eyes. He felt a kind of spatial fluctuation from the whirlpool. Apparently there was something else behind it.
The compass continued to emit golden light, and it was not until a quarter of an hour later that the golden light dissipated. At this moment, all the dark clouds in the sky were gathered together, condensed in the dark whirlpool tunnel.
In the dark tunnel, purple thunder and lightning kept exploding, giving people a feeling of extreme danger.
Ye Changsheng looked at the tunnel. After observing it carefully for a moment, he grabbed the compass with one hand and disappeared suddenly.
The next moment, he appeared at the bottom of the whirlpool tunnel. After staying for a while, he turned into a ray of light and got into it.
After he entered, the whirlpool tunnel immediately dispersed and disappeared.
In the sky, the wind was light and the clouds were calm, as if the changes in the wind and clouds just now were a complete illusion and had never happened before.
Ye Changsheng found himself standing on an altar. The altar stood in a lake and floated on it. There was nothing else around except the lake water.
This lake looks a bit weird. The whole lake is completely pitch black. Just by looking at it, it seems as if it is sucking people's souls in. It is extremely weird.
"The mana cannot be mobilized!" He frowned, closed his eyes, and sensed it carefully for a while.
Between heaven and earth, invisible rules shrouded it, descending like chains, locking his Nascent Soul.
From his inner perspective, his Nascent Soul eyes were closed tightly, as if imprisoned and unresponsive.
Ye Changsheng discovered that he had lost contact with his Nascent Soul. This was a change that happened as soon as he entered this space.
It seems that there are strange rules in this mysterious space.
He tried hard, but found that he could not break free from the shackles of Nascent Soul no matter what.
"Even my Nascent Soul can be trapped. Who made the rules of this space? It must be at least a true immortal, right?" Ye Changsheng looked at the world around him and thought in his heart.
There was a hint of gloom in his heart. No matter what the reason or where he stayed, Nascent Soul's magic power was imprisoned, which always made people feel a little uneasy.
After observing the surroundings, he saw an island in the middle of the lake dozens of miles away. His heart moved and he knew that that place should be where the secret of this place was.
"It seems that if I want to understand everything, I can only go to that island. But my magic power is completely restricted. How can I get there?"
He frowned and looked at the dark lake in front of him. After a moment, he stretched out his foot and tried to step on it.
It turned out that, as if stepping on solid ground, this pitch-black lake seemed to have a strange characteristic.
Ye Changsheng leaned forward and put all his weight on that foot. As a result, he found that the lake water still had no ripples at all and could easily bear his entire weight.
"You have locked up your magic power, do you want me to just walk over there like this?" He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the island in the distance for a few times.
Then, step forward directly.
Just after taking two steps, Ye Changsheng frowned and stopped again.
He lowered his head and looked at the dark lake at his feet, and there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"My consciousness is losing... Is this lake absorbing my consciousness?"
He walked forward quickly, but the deeper he went, the faster his consciousness was lost.
Although considering his huge and incredible spiritual consciousness, this loss does not seem to be a big deal, but if this trend continues, it will still be a bit worrying in the future.
Ye Changsheng squinted his eyes and walked forward quickly. When he had walked more than ten miles, one-fiftieth of his consciousness had been lost.
After he walked more than ten miles, the total amount of spiritual consciousness he had lost had reached one-tenth of his total spiritual consciousness.
And when he walked the last ten miles and set foot on the island, a quarter of his spiritual consciousness was lost.
"One quarter of my consciousness is already twice that of an ordinary peak-level monk. This lake..."
Ye Changsheng frowned and looked back. Considering the strangeness of this lake, there are probably only a few people in the world who can walk through it.
"This place... is a bit interesting!" After Ye Changsheng looked at the lake, he looked at the high mountain in the center of the island.
The mountain was as smooth as walls on all sides, and there was nothing to climb. There was only a stone staircase leading to the top of the mountain in the direction facing him.
This was exactly the same situation he encountered in the secret realm where he was immersed in the Star Chart. Needless to say, those steps should be a place where the strength of the physical body was tested.
It seems that the only way to reach the top of the mountain is to take the stairs. Although he has not tried it, Ye Changsheng also knows that most other methods will not work.
What the person who arranged this scene wanted was for them to walk up the stairs in an honest manner, so naturally there would be no room for them to take advantage of the situation.
However, on the top of the mountain, it is not a palace like the one in the previous secret realm, but a three-story pagoda.
"The mysterious lake should be a test of spiritual consciousness. If you don't have twice the spiritual consciousness of a monk of the same level, you can't even think of walking through the lake, and the mountain road is a test of the physical body..."
"Haha, is it really the Wusheng Sword Sect? The Wusheng Sword Sect has three criteria for recruiting disciples. One is to have talent in swordsmanship, the other is to have extraordinary spiritual strength, and the third is to have physical strength that far exceeds the same level!"
Ye Changsheng recalled all the situations about the Wusheng Sword Sect in the Immortal World, and he probably understood something in his heart.
Is there a legacy from the Wusheng Sword Sect in that high tower?
The Wusheng Sword Sect is also a land-king-like existence in the Netherfrost Immortal Realm. Its strength cannot be underestimated. Its inheritance is extremely precious even to the monks in the Immortal Realm.
There are three commendable inheritances of Wusheng Sword Sect, one of which is the various top-level swordsmanship they have mastered.
The second is the first three levels of divine refining techniques, which are techniques used to cultivate spiritual consciousness.
Moreover, Ye Changsheng also knew that the divine refining technique was somewhere in Guanghan Realm. If he wanted to look for it, it would take a certain amount of time to find it.
The third is the physical training method "Great Zhou Tianxing Yuan Gong", which can cultivate thirty-six star orifices.
The Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong that Ye Changsheng is currently practicing was simplified by an immortal named Leng Yan Ancestor in the immortal world based on the first half of the Great Zhoutian Xing Yuan Gong.
Just successfully cultivating the seven star orifices of the Little Big Dipper Star Yuan Gong is enough to give him the strength to compete with the true immortals with his physical body alone.
It is enough to cultivate a true body that is almost invincible in the lower realm.
And after successfully cultivating all thirty-six star orifices of the Great Zhou Tianxing Yuan Gong, he was able to compete with the Golden Immortal with his physical body alone.
"If this place really has the inheritance of the Wusheng Sword Sect, it is indeed an amazing thing, but for monks in the spiritual world, this thing is not as real as a Xuantian treasure!"
"This alone may not be enough to support the hope of the Jiaochi clan's great prosperity!" Ye Changsheng thought in his heart.
He stepped forward, no matter what this place was, he would know it when he reached the top.
Those tens of thousands of steps are an extremely harsh test for the physical body, much more severe than the previous tests encountered in the Star Chart Infusion Secret Realm.
After all, mana can be mobilized in that place. With the help of various talismans, magic weapons and other means, even if the physical strength cannot keep up, there is still a chance to pass the test.
For example, Liu Shui'er is like this.
But here, when the mana cannot be mobilized, there is no way to take advantage of it. You can only carry it up step by step with your body.
But these tests are still nothing to Ye Changsheng. With his physical strength, it is easy to walk through these tens of thousands of steps.
Not long after, he reached the top of the mountain, stepped onto a platform, and looked at the white tower in front of him.
