Canglong, white tiger, phoenix and Xuanwu, also known as the four spirits, are the gods of ancient times. They control the four directions and are the lord of all beasts. They have unfathomable strength, boundless supernatural power, vast magic power, and can cover the sky with one hand.
Even in today's world, the Four Elephants are the gods that people worship and pray for, and they are also one of the few animal gods.
However, how could these legendary ancient beasts appear in the Stone Forest?
"The more I think about it, the less I understand." Lin Yufeng frowned slightly. Surprisingly, there was no danger in the stone forest, only these strange phenomena in front of him.
After thinking about it for a while, Lin Yufeng glanced around and seemed to feel that something was wrong.
"Is it really a lost civilization?" Lin Yufeng frowned slightly and looked carefully at the ancient sword Qitan and the four statues.
Generally speaking, many people know that many ancient races will begin to decline after experiencing their peak, and then build ruins, and these ruins are to preserve their peerless treasures - what the world calls 'lost civilizations'.
As we all know, since it is an ancient ruins, there must be no more or less institutions, but Lin Yufeng has not encountered any danger since he first stepped into the stone forest, which made him doubtful.
However, Lin Yufeng is certain that this place should be a civilization left behind by a glorious race in history.
"Since it is a lost civilization, why are the only things left behind an ancient sword and a bluestone slab?"
Lin Yufeng was a little confused and stared at the ancient sword Qitan.
A clear and quiet deep pool, featureless stone slabs, and ancient swords that have gone through many vicissitudes of life.
The four-sided idols should be the beliefs of the ancient races, so they were built in the ruins, while the ancient swords and stone slabs should be buried objects.
"Maybe except for the bluestone slab and the ancient sword, everything else is hidden somewhere else?"
Lin Yufeng thought of this possibility, and his eyes immediately became a little fiery: "I wonder if there are any lost ancient scriptures?"
There are many types of lost civilizations, including lost ancient texts, lost buildings, lost exercises, etc. Of course, the most enviable one is undoubtedly the ‘lost ancient scriptures’.
The reason why these ancient races are able to shock the world and leave indelible brilliance in history is largely due to the creation of ancient scriptures and immortal scriptures that have never been seen before or since.
Ancient scriptures and immortal scriptures are not martial arts or spiritual skills. They are all-encompassing and natural. They can change the physique of practitioners, derive various powerful attacks, terrifying spells, and even extend a person's life span by hundreds of years.
Some great figures have achieved eternal fame by relying on ancient scriptures.
And these powerful men are undoubtedly the descendants of the ancient race, but it is recorded in ancient books that since their fall, these legendary ancient scriptures and ancient fairy scriptures have become short-lived.
"I wonder if there are any ancient scriptures here?" Lin Yufeng was a little excited. If he could get these treasures, his future achievements would be unimaginable.
Of course, he didn't have much hope for these things, because there were relevant records in ancient books. Many cultivators had visited some ancient ruins, but they found that these lost ancient scriptures had long been burned by their owners.
After all, those races that were prominent for a while also expected that the ruins they set up would be exposed sooner or later, so naturally they could not give away the most important and core treasures to others in vain.
"The four gods' statues surround the ancient sword and strange pool..."
Lin Yufeng narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at the deep pool, and said: "Then this means that this pool should be the core place where treasures are buried."
The directions facing the four great immortal beasts all point to the Ancient Sword Qitan, which is obviously the important place of this lost ruins.
Thinking of this, Lin Yufeng cheered up, and he vaguely felt that this deep pool had a great origin.
Walking into the water pool, Lin Yufeng looked at the ancient sword and had no intention of taking action. He was not sure what danger would happen if he touched the ancient sword rashly...
As for the bluestone slab, he thought it should have some connection with the ancient sword.
"There are only these two things on the surface of the deep pool, so are there other things buried in the deep pool?"
Lin Yufeng observed the quiet pool, but because the pool was deep, he could not see anything at all with his eyesight.
Although he wanted to jump down to find out, he didn't know if there was anything dangerous under the pool.
It would not be fun if Lin Yufeng jumped down and suddenly found an ancient guardian beast sleeping inside.
"That's right, use the soul power of the Heavenly Thunder!" Lin Yufeng suddenly had a flash of inspiration and suddenly thought that he had this trick.
The perception of Tianlei Soul Power is quite powerful, and at the same time, it has much stronger soul energy than ordinary pharmacists, and can be used to sense unknown areas.
Without saying a word, Lin Yufeng formed a few simple seals with his hands and shouted in a low voice: "Tian Lei Soul Power, Qi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of soul waves surged out of his body and spread around.
However, at this time, Lin Yufeng suddenly felt shocked.
He discovered that in this stone forest, the coverage area of Tianlei Soul Power was extremely narrow, almost only a few feet.
"What's going on?" Lin Yufeng was confused. No matter how he tried, Tianlei's soul power seemed to have hit an invisible barrier and could not penetrate.
Now Lin Yufeng was puzzled. His thunder soul power could cover half of the ancient village, but now it could only cover a pool of water. The distance was quite different.
"No matter what, let's check the deep pool first." After thinking to no avail, Lin Yufeng had no choice but to pour the Tianlei soul power into the deep pool.
After careful sensing, Lin Yufeng discovered that the pool was actually not very deep, only as high as two or three adults. However, to his disappointment, there seemed to be nothing special in it.
Originally, he was full of hope and imagined that this deep pool was the same as that time he fished. There was an ancient road in it, which led to another fantasy world, and he accidentally obtained a peerless treasure like the origin of Tianlei.
Of course, fantasy is always beautiful, and reality is always cruel. From the perspective of perception, no difference was found, and Lin Yufeng did not expect to get the lost ancient scriptures.
"Forget it, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment." Helpless, Lin Yufeng had no choice but to withdraw.
However, at this moment, there was something strange about Tianlei's soul power, which had been silent all this time.
"Huh?" Lin Yufeng was refreshed by the sudden feeling. From the information fed back by Tianlei's soul power, he seemed to have discovered something extremely small in the deep pool.
Without further ado, Lin Yufeng withdrew his Tianlei soul power, stretched out his hand and tested the water. After finding that there was no danger, he immediately took a deep breath, and then plunged into the water.
"Plop."
Soon, he opened his eyes in the water and discovered the strange place.
"This is..." Lin Yufeng was shocked, and his face was filled with surprise: "Seven Immortals in the Water!"
The seven immortals in the water are the thousand-year-old holy medicine!
Rumor has it that this is a very rare fairy grass that exudes colorful light. It can only survive in a special water environment and cannot leave the water, otherwise it will wither.
At the same time, its colorful light can increase the quality of the elixir by one grade, and can even restore 30% of the strength of a strong man who has lost his cultivation. It is of immeasurable value and is a must-have item for many high-level pharmacists.
"That's great, I didn't expect to be able to find the thousand-year-old holy medicine." Lin Yufeng said excitedly. For more than a year, he had searched the entire Qingling Mountain, but only found medicinal materials that were hundreds of years old.
The medicinal sources contained in century-old medicinal materials and thousand-year-old holy medicines are by no means the same level. To say that century-old medicinal materials only have ten kilograms of medicinal sources at most, while the thousand-year-old holy medicine contains one hundred kilograms or even more!
According to Lin Yufeng's estimation, one thousand-year-old sacred medicine is worth seven or eight hundred-year-old medicinal plants...
As long as he can successfully extract the medicinal source contained in it, his first-level sky thunder should be able to break through from the early stage to the later stage, and if he is lucky, he can even reach the peak of the first-level sky thunder.
In the ninth level of Tianlei, each level is divided into the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage and the peak stage. Even if he takes one step forward, Lin Yufeng's strength can be improved a lot.
Of course, even as the master, Lin Yufeng doesn't know how much strength will increase when the first level of sky thunder breaks through to the second level, but what is certain is that it should not be much worse than when it transformed.
After all, it is easy to advance to the ninth level of Tianlei at the beginning, which also means that the smaller the increase in strength, the more difficult it becomes as you progress to the later stages, the greater the increase.
"Why are the seven immortals in the water sensed by the soul power of the thunder?" Lin Yufeng suddenly thought of this doubt.
The soul power of Tianlei usually senses moving objects of flesh and blood, but this holy medicine can sense...
"Could it be that the power of Tianlei's soul can still perceive some rare treasures?" Lin Yufeng was startled and thought of this possibility.
Many times, some things that seem ordinary on the surface actually contain heart-warming treasures, but few practitioners can sense it. They usually rely on luck or a vicious eye to detect the slightest hint of it.
However, Tianlei's soul power can actually be sensed, which will help Lin Yufeng a lot in the future.
"Tsk tsk, there are such special effects. It is worthy of being in the ninth level of Tianlei. The first level of benefits is so many that people are jealous."
Lin Yufeng praised them deeply in his heart. If he encountered those strange objects in the future, he would not be afraid of passing them by.
After coming back to his senses, Lin Yufeng stared at the fairy grass. He was about to reach out and pick it, but suddenly stopped.
"The Seven Immortals in the Water grow in special waters. Once they leave the water, they will wither quickly." Thinking of the knowledge introduced in the book, Lin Yufeng was secretly glad that he did not act rashly, otherwise it would be terrible.
Poking his head out of the pool, Lin Yufeng took a few breaths of fresh air, then took out the water bag he carried with him, filled it with a few mouthfuls of water, and then put his head into the water again.
He thought that he would first put the pond water here into a water bag, and then put the seven immortals in it, so that he would not be afraid of losing water and withering. When the time comes, he would quickly take it back to the ancient village and let Mr. Xuan help extract the source of the medicine.
"I wonder how much medicine this fairy grass can have?" Lin Yufeng asked curiously, then stretched out his hand and carefully grabbed it.
However, something that surprised Lin Yufeng appeared again.
I saw him holding the hand of the Seven Immortals in the Water, but he couldn't pull it out no matter how hard he tried.
"What's going on?" Lin Yufeng was stunned. He was just pulling out a piece of grass, why was it so difficult?
With the strength of his body, he couldn't even pull out a piece of grass. I'm afraid he would laugh out loud if he told it.
"I don't believe it, this grass is so evil." Lin Yufeng gritted his teeth, used all his strength, held the Seven Immortals in the Water with both hands, and pulled it up hard.
Unfortunately, he tried several times without success.
"call!"
Lin Yufeng stretched his head out of the pool, spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and wondered: "It's really a ghost, I can't even pull out a blade of grass."
No matter how hard he tried, he could do nothing about this fairy grass. This was the first time Lin Yufeng had seen this strange situation.
At this time, Lin Yufeng looked at the pool, and then moved his gaze upwards, staring at the bluestone slab on the pool and the ancient sword that kept floating.
"Seven Immortals in the Water, Bluestone Slate, Ancient Sword..."
Lin Yufeng was suddenly startled and said: "By the way, these three are connected together!"
Looking up from the pool, you can notice that above the Seven Immortals in the Water is a bluestone slab, and above the bluestone slab is an ancient sword, which means a possibility.
"If you want to pick the fairy grass, you must touch the ancient sword!"….
Lin Yufeng looked closely at the ancient sword floating up and down, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
In fact, he has always been a little uneasy about this ancient sword that exudes ancient aura. The origin of this ancient sword is unknown, and he doesn't know what will happen if he touches it rashly.
You know, the fairy beasts in the southeast, northwest and northwest are all facing the ancient sword on the strange pool. You can imagine how special this sword is.
"Try it first. If anything happens, just run away immediately."
Lin Yufeng thought for a while and decided to give it a try.
Coincidentally, there were several huge rocks sunk in this deep pool, so there were several neat footholds on the water surface where Lin Yufeng could step on them and touch the ancient sword.
Standing up, Lin Yufeng carefully stepped on his footing and soon came into contact with the ancient sword.
I have to say that there is nothing special about this ancient sword. Many swords have sword grids - which refers to the part between the sword body and the hilt that serves as a guard.
But this ancient sword does not have one. If you look at it from a distance, you might think it is a stick without knowing it.
"I hope it's okay."
Lin Yufeng took a gentle breath, his whole body tensed up, and immediately stretched out his hand to hold the still floating hilt of the sword.
Pulling out the sword with force, he pulled it out easily.
Looking at the sword, Lin Yufeng was stunned for a long time, and then he breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it's okay."
Now, he can go pick the fairy grass from the pool.
However, at this time, the vision suddenly happened again without any warning...
"Buzz!"
In vain, the ancient sword that Lin Yufeng was still holding trembled violently, and the clear sword sounds resounded throughout the world.
Lin Yufeng's face changed slightly at the sudden change, he was startled, and without saying a word, he threw the ancient sword out.
The ancient sword thrown out by him suddenly froze in mid-air, and immediately erupted into a brilliant blue light.
"Oops, this ancient sword must be an evil thing."
The dazzling light made Lin Yufeng's eyes unable to bear it. Immediately, his expression changed again, and a powerful force flew him away, slamming him into the dense green bamboo.
"It hurts!"
Lin Yufeng gritted his teeth, got up with some difficulty, and turned his eyes to the ancient sword in the air.
At this moment, the blue light disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then a burst of blue mist emerged from the ancient sword!
"Blue mist?"
Lin Yufeng was a little shocked and stared at the ancient sword closely.
At this time, the blue mist actually started to move, and something seemed to be condensing in Lin Yufeng's stunned eyes...
Clear and ethereal, otherworldly, pure and beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy, the perfect curves are like mist, giving people a dreamlike feeling.
On the peerless beauty, a pair of beautiful eyes as cold as ice slowly opened.
"This is..." Lin Yufeng was dumbfounded: "A woman?!"
