1571. Chapter 1571 The truth about the ancient gods
"Why is this person not dead? It seems he has been lost here for a long time." Lu Yufan touched his chin and asked curiously.
Judging from the swordsman's clothing, it seems that he was from a very long time ago, at least from the middle of ancient times.
An unknown number of years have passed since the middle ancient times, but not only is the swordsman not dead, but he is still very young.
"Strictly speaking, he is dead, but his soul is imprisoned in the body and cannot be liberated, so it will not be worn away by the years and become what it is now." Su Su whispered, with inexplicable sadness.
If it were her, such a fate would be unbearable.
"I think the sword in that swordsman's hand is very good. It should be a valuable treasure. Boss, you should have taken the opportunity just now to kill him and then seize the treasure." Xu Bai said with some regret.
"You still have the nerve to say that if it weren't for you just now, why would you have caused so many troubles?" Xuelin scolded.
"It's better not to be greedy. Although these living dead are dull, their awareness of self-protection has never been wiped out. If you threaten them, you will definitely provoke a full-scale counterattack." Su Su also shook her head, disagreeing with this idea.
The strength of the living dead, due to their reaction consciousness, is naturally impossible to compare with that of the living dead.
After all, the dead are far less cunning and changeable than the living.
But the living dead like the swordsman just now are not something that junior monks like them can deal with at the moment. If they make the slightest mistake, they may be killed.
After this incident, everyone began to be cautious. The bloody battles around them were too confusing and confusing, so they must be careful in situations like the one just now.
In fact, in these ruins, there are not only ancient living dead, but also some powerful supernatural spirits hidden.
The six Yang Di people stumbled around in the ruins of the ancestral temple and encountered many dangers. They even had to run for their lives several times and were unable to cope with it at all.
In the middle of the night, the group finally reached the depths of the ancestral temple with difficulty. For some reason, the chaos here disappeared and the surroundings were very quiet.
Right in front, a relatively intact huge altar appeared, with pieces of white bones scattered on the altar and on the stone steps.
In the past, a large number of people obviously died here, and looking at the remains of these bones, the strength of these people in life was definitely extraordinary.
Xuelin was very curious, so she waved the psychic pen and sketched out some light and shadow. Then everyone was surprised to see phantoms sitting on the altar, and a large number of strong men kneeling around the altar. The scene was
Quite spectacular.
However, most of those strong men were stained with blood and had obviously experienced great battles. They looked like they would defend this place to the death.
In the end, they all did indeed fall. In the sky, a terrifying treasure fell, bringing down the ultimate killing power, leaving corpses all over the ground...
This scene made Yang Di and others see what happened here in the past, but they were still confused.
Because they don't know the ins and outs.
"Look, those statues are actually glowing..." Suddenly, Wei Chen exclaimed, and this guy's eyes had glanced behind the altar.
Yang Di and others were surprised, and then they also raised their heads. The next moment, several people were shocked.
Tens of meters behind the altar, there is a cliff. In the caves under the cliff, there are more than a dozen tall stone statues on display.
Those stone statues looked calm and majestic, standing like gods, surrounded by a faint light.
There are ruins and broken walls everywhere in the entire royal land, but the surroundings of the stone statues are peaceful and solemn, which can't help but make people feel frightened.
"Those are... statues of gods!" Xuelin was startled, and then she shouted in surprise: "I guessed it right, this is indeed the royal land awarded by the ancient country. Those are not ordinary statues, but the gods that the people of this royal land worship all day long.
!”
"God?" Yang Di and others gasped, is this true?
For a moment, everyone was quiet, even Xu Bai and the others looked timid, but it was just another time.
Although my little sister-in-law Liang has explained the true origin of the gods, there are only a few people in later generations who can see through this layer of confusion.
Subconsciously, everyone still feels that God cannot be looked up to, is unattainable, and cannot even tolerate the slightest blasphemy.
On the other hand, Xuelin, perhaps because she was well versed in this, was quite calm. She waved her hands and said: "There is no need to be so nervous, and there is no need to be in awe. The ancient country has been destroyed, and the totems of faith have long since disappeared. Those statues of gods look so mysterious and strange, they are just some power of faith."
It's just a surviving appearance. As long as you don't deliberately **** it, there's generally no danger."
"What about the gods of the past?" Yang Di couldn't help but ask.
Xuelin sighed: "I said that gods are the result of faith. If the cornerstone of faith is lost, gods will naturally cease to exist."
"Then we have to move all these statues away?" Hearing what the girl said, Xu Bai and the others showed their true colors again, with very fiery eyes.
This shocked their senior sister Su Su. Having said that, it is best not to be too presumptuous about things related to gods.
Xuelin didn't agree with being so barbaric. She shook her head and said, "Go and take a look first!"
Then, under her leadership, everyone moved forward cautiously, passed through the altar, and soon stood under the tall stone statue.
There are more than a dozen statues of gods with different appearances. On both sides is a majestic man, and in the center, there is a sculpture of a beautiful woman covered in rhombus gauze.
The sculpture was of unparalleled elegance and was made of finely carved pure white jade. The light surrounding it was like pieces of snowflakes, making people unable to help but take a few more glances.
Xuelin informed everyone: "Actually, there is only one real statue here, which is the statue of the Snow God!"
"Snow God?" Yang Di was surprised.
"Yes." Xuelin nodded, with a strange look in her eyes, and whispered: "This is a very famous god in the long history of cultivation. It has been believed in by more than one ancient cultivation country. There are many myths and legends related to it in ancient books."
Yang Di was moved and stared at the statue carefully for a long time. For some reason, it felt inexplicably familiar.
That face looks a bit familiar, and if you think about it carefully, it looks a bit like a pretty face that Yang Di has seen before.
That's right, Yang Di couldn't help but think of Xue Nu, the mysterious woman who once competed with him to be the leader of the Mysterious Realm.
Although during the whole process, Snow Girl's face was covered with gauze and her real face could not be seen, but Yang Di had seen countless women and could still imagine Snow Girl's true appearance from the outline.
That woman is really similar to this statue.
Thinking of this, Yang Di couldn't help but shudder. Although Xuelin swore that the gods had disappeared, this weird coincidence still made people shudder.
The snow girl has the seal of reincarnation on her body. In the distant past, I am afraid it was also very legendary, which makes people think a lot.
While Yang Di was absent-minded, Su Su and the others had already begun to inquire about the origins of the other sculptures from Gu Liang.
The results were astonishing. The girl told everyone that those sculptures should be of the past emperors of this ancient country.
This is also the custom of ancient countries. Although ancient countries usually only believe in one god, the emperors of the past dynasties also have a lofty status in the hearts of the people of later generations. After their death, they can be ranked alongside the gods and statues.
"Let's look for it. Maybe there will be important things from the past kings or relics of the gods nearby!"
Under Xuelin's instigation, everyone still dug around here and started a new round of treasure hunting. The damage here was not very high.
After some investigation, the six people did find a lot of good things among the piles of remains, including ancient books, treasures, and even intact treasures.
"Oh my god! This is the Xuanshui ancient talisman. There is such a rare treasure in the world!" Su Su found a snow-white ancient talisman on the altar and was extremely excited.
Yang Di and the others also looked sideways and envied it. It was indeed a somewhat unusual treasure.
Nowadays, the way of talismans is far less glorious than in ancient times, and some talismans with astonishing power have long since disappeared.
The Xuanshui ancient talisman is a masterpiece from the ancient times. It is the great achievement of talismans in the past and possesses the power of uncanny craftsmanship.
Looking around the world, I wonder if I can find a second one.
In her excitement, Su Su's beautiful eyes were filled with mist. After getting this ancient talisman, her trip was considered worthwhile. She thought that if she brought it back to her clan, the entire Baishui clan would be excited about it.
Compared with the origin of this talisman, its usefulness is even more important to the Baishui tribe. Su Su said in a trembling voice: "Our tribe is short of a suitable rare treasure to hold down the spiritual spring eye. Bringing the ancient Xuanshui talisman back is just the right thing."
It can calm the long-standing worries of the elders."
It can be seen that this senior sister is very happy at this moment. She found this object from the pile of bones closest to the statue on the altar.
Judging from the previous light and shadow, that person had a respected status and was probably an important figure in the former kingdom.
"Hee hee! I also found a big treasure." Not only Su Su, but others also found something. Xuelin dug out a command flag nearby, and her big happy eyes turned into crescents.
Yang Di looked up and was a little surprised. This little money-lover was already a treasure trove. What else could make her so excited?
After taking a look, Yang Di discovered that it was a small snow-white flag, exuding a chilling air, with ancient Taoist patterns engraved on it.
"What kind of treasure is this?" Wei Chen came up and asked. He had just found a heavy treasure, which could be used as one of the important materials for making a new suit in the future.
Xuelin showed off: "Don't you understand? This is the famous frost and snow flag. It is also a product of the ancient times. Nowadays, even the most powerful rune masters have made it."
"The Frost and Snow Flag is really powerful. It is said that this thing can only be made with the help of the power of the gods." Su Su came over and said with surprise: "However, according to legend, it is only one of the Great Five Elements Flags. Only the Great Five Elements Flag can be made."
Only when we gather together can we exert our greatest divine power."
Xuelin nodded and said: "It seems that you know a lot, senior sister. In fact, let me tell you secretly that I originally had three of the great five-element flags from ancient times. Now with the frost and snow flags, there are exactly four. Find Feng Sha
If you raise the flag, it will be complete!”
"Feng Shaqi?" Yang Di was surprised, "Could that one be in the Wind Clan?"
"Well, actually I think so too. You can ask your good brother for me in the future." Xuelin agreed.
Yang Di couldn't laugh or cry, good brother? This girl should be talking about Mu Feng, right, that Wind Clan prodigy did have a good chat with him last time, and they even became brothers later on.
However, if one day Mu Feng were to know the inside story of what happened in the Jiugong Mountains, I am afraid that not only would the brothers be unable to do it, but they would also cause a huge commotion.
