Liu Qinghuan's surprise was beyond words. He really didn't expect such a place to exist under this space.
A strange place, a strange land, and even stranger is the valley.
Looking up, through a transparent light curtain, the howling wind stirred up countless vortices, roaring like thunder, shocking the soul.
Only then did Liu Qinghuan feel frightened. His body swayed and slowly fell to the ground.
The valley is just ahead, with lush vegetation, blooming flowers, and faintly visible cornices. It looks like a manor that has been carefully decorated, but there is an indescribable dissonance.
Liu Qinghuan thought for a while, and the reason for the slight dissonance was mainly due to the dead silence here. Although there were flowers, plants and trees, they were obviously lifeless and there was no sign of any human beings.
His spiritual consciousness swept across the valley, and the valley was empty. Mo Xuan, who had been in front of him, was still missing, and he didn't know where he had gone.
Liu Qinghuan observed for a long time and did not find any traps, but he was extremely careful and slowly floated into the valley.
Along a gravel path buried by fallen leaves, the trees on both sides are extremely thick, and the spread canopy completely blocks the skylight above, giving people a feeling of loneliness and desolation.
Deep in the flowers and trees, a tall palace appears before you, but the mottled walls, peeling wooden pillars, and wild grasses growing vigorously in the cracks of the stones all reveal decay and decadence.
"Squeak~ah~"
Pushing open the rotten and heavy palace door, you can see that no one has stepped on the ground in the palace for many years, and the dust has accumulated several inches thick.
Liu Qinghuan quickly scanned around and found no footprints. Then he stepped lightly and floated through the door like a gust of wind.
After bypassing a screen that isolated the outside, the scene inside the palace finally came into view. Except for a high platform, it was deserted and empty, and there was no other place.
Liu Qinghuan's eyes were focused on the high platform, and he saw a huge chair on it. It was magnificent and golden, with a person sitting on it in the brilliant light.
people?
Liu Qinghuan was startled, and then realized that although it was lifelike, it was just a lifeless puppet.
He felt very strange. Speaking of it, this was the first puppet he saw since entering the Palace of Mirrors.
Although there are some differences between the mechanism technique and the puppet technique, they often appear together, and the two have many similarities. The Wangren Taoist is also known as the mechanism technique that is unparalleled in the world, and a huge maze is laid out in the Treasure Mirror Palace to the number of days in a week.
But not a single puppet appeared along the way, which must be said to be an extremely strange thing.
The puppet was extremely tall, about twice as tall as an ordinary person. He was wearing a bright yellow jumpsuit. Even if the room was filled with dust, his body was still shining and clean.
The two hands of the golden puppet rest on the back of the chairs on both sides. The jade-like facial features are strong and handsome. If you don't look closely, they look just like real people.
At this time, the closed eyes suddenly opened, shooting out two rays of light, looking straight at Liu Qinghuan.
Liu Qinghuan was not surprised at all. Just like the puppet arranged under the Sea of Howling Wind back then, as long as the monk's soul is immortal, the puppet will always exist.
"Who are you……"
A voice came from above. It was old, hoarse, and seemed to have not spoken for a long time, and it was somewhat intermittent.
There was a creaking sound, and the golden puppet stood up. With the light on its back, its body was like a mountain, and its invisible power made the empty space feel oppressive.
Liu Qinghuan frowned slightly, made a pinch in his hand, and used the intimidation technique. His aura also increased, and he said lightly: "Who are you?"
"boom!"
The golden puppet took a step.
"Bang! Bang!"
He slowly walked down the steps with extremely heavy steps: "Now that you are here, you don't know who I know?"
Liu Qinghuan's heart moved and he said in surprise: "You are the remnant soul of Taoist Wangren...?!"
"Hahaha!" The hoarse laughter resounded throughout the hall, and then he sighed with emotion: "How many years, how many years have passed... there are still people who remember this name."
His laughter suddenly stopped and he said in an arrogant tone: "Remnant soul? It should be said that I am Wangren, Wangren is me!"
Liu Qinghuan was extremely shocked, but said: "That's not right! Taoist Wang Ren died hundreds of thousands of years ago. At that time, he was already a Mahayana monk and entered the period of transcending tribulation. Every time he had to endure more and more powerful attacks,
Even if you survive the catastrophe, you should have ascended to the fairy world long ago..."
"Bang!" The golden puppet finally stood on the ground, its tall body bringing strong pressure: "I said I am him, it is him! I am the first incarnation he refined. If he dies, I
Of course it’s him!”
It turned out to be a clone.
But even if it is a clone, it is impossible to survive until now, and it is still in a puppet.
Liu Qinghuan's eyes fell on the opponent's face and hands that were not covered by armor, and he understood.
This puppet actually has a body made of immortality stone. The immortality stone can make the body incorruptible and the soul not disperse. As long as it does not leave from above, it can exist forever.
"Okay." Liu Qinghuan took a few steps back and got farther away from him, then said: "Wangren...Senior, I entered this place by mistake, and have no intention of disturbing your purity. Please tell me a way to leave, and I will immediately
Then leave."
"So, it's time for the outside world to open up again once in ten thousand years."
The golden puppet's eyes, which are made of unknown spiritual materials, flicker with light. Although they are fake, they give people a real sense of gaze. You can even feel the other person's emotions from them. I have to say that this puppet
It is definitely a masterpiece, and it is a step further than the stone statues in the Kunlun Fairy Ruins.
Liu Qinghuan sighed in his heart and heard the other party chuckle a few times: "You want to leave? Haha, haven't you ever thought about why you were thrown into the Hungry Wind Cave?"
Liu Qinghuan frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
"Even if you walk out from here now, you have already been targeted by that guy who is determined to retaliate. If you go out, you will only face more deadly situations!"
Liu Qinghuan's face changed slightly. The vague feeling of being targeted before was actually real? Someone secretly wanted him to die?
"Who are you talking about?!"
"Of course he is the one who controls the entire Treasure Mirror Palace."
The golden puppet walked around him and walked towards the palace door step by step.
Liu Qinghuan was full of doubts now. She followed him outside and asked: "The person who controls the entire Baojing Palace? Who is he?"
The puppet raised its cold jade head, looked up at the howling storm in the sky, and said in a long and authentic voice: "This is a long story. All you need to know is that he is also an incarnation of Wangren."
He turned his head and looked at him meaningfully: "I am very curious, with your cultivation level, how did you annoy him and let him throw you directly into the Hungry Wind Cave. You know, he is very taboo about this place.
