"Dad!" Seeing the old figure, Ling Zhanxuan and the others hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
"Grandpa!" Ling Yunfeng hesitated for a moment and then gave a slight salute to the old figure. From his memory, he also knew that this man was his grandfather, Ling Cang, the old patriarch of the Ling family.
"You're here, come in with me first." Ling Cang looked at Ling Yunfeng with a kind face and smiled, then walked to a stone wall, formed a hand seal, and then threw a few streamers of light forward into the air.
"Rumble!" As several streaks of light flashed in mid-air, the entire stone chamber suddenly rumbled. Suddenly, the stone wall made a loud rumble, and countless limes fell down, as if the entire secret room was about to collapse.
.
At this time, with Ling Yunfeng stunned, a stone door suddenly appeared under the floor in the center of the stone room. The stone door slowly moved away, instantly revealing a stone passage on the floor that could accommodate two people entering at the same time.
.
"Array?" Looking at this strange scene, Ling Yunfeng's eyes showed surprise and he whispered.
After studying the "Tian Tian Bao Lu" during this period of time, Ling Yunfeng also dabbled in formations, so he could guess that Ling Cang was activating a formation just now.
"Oh? You can actually tell that this is a formation? I didn't expect you to also study formations. It seems that your back is really not simple." Ling Cang glanced at Ling Yunfeng in surprise, and then didn't ask any more questions.
What? He waved to everyone and walked directly into the secret passage.
"Let's go in." Ling Zhanxuan and the others also glanced at Ling Yunfeng in surprise. If they hadn't studied the formation, it would have been impossible to tell that what they just did was a formation. It was the first time they had seen this kind of situation.
But I don't know what happened.
Immediately, everyone entered the cave one after another. The passage of the cave was very narrow, allowing only one person to pass through.
The stone walls on both sides of the cave also looked very rough and damp. The passage continued downwards with no end in sight. It was extremely dark inside and I didn't know how deep it was.
In this dark cave, although there are many moonstones inlaid on the stone walls on both sides of the cave, they can only barely provide lighting.
The group of people walked quietly in the cave, saying nothing along the way. After walking more than two hundred meters, Ling Yunfeng suddenly felt that there was a faint energy fluctuation in the cave. After careful sensing,
He discovered that the concentration of spiritual energy in the cave was much richer than that in the outside world.
After walking a hundred meters again, bursts of faint medicinal fragrance entered Ling Yunfeng's nose. Ling Yunfeng raised his eyes and saw that there were many elixirs planted on both sides of the cave.
The more herbs there are, the more lush the growth will be.
"I didn't expect that there was such a place in the Ling family." Ling Yunfeng was surprised inwardly, but when he saw that Ling Zhanxuan and others didn't mean to speak, he didn't ask.
After traveling a few hundred meters again, the group came to a stone wall. At this time, the aura of the cave was extremely rich. It was estimated to be about five or six times that of the outside world. Moreover, the aura seemed to be pulled by something, and it was violent.
Roaring and surging.
A strong wave of energy permeated the space, causing the martial energy in Ling Yunfeng's body to stagnate, and there seemed to be a strange energy in the air.
This energy breath entered the body as he breathed, making Ling Yunfeng feel indescribably comfortable all over. The flesh and blood tissue in the body felt full of vitality, and the blood in the body suddenly accelerated as if connected by some kind of connection.
.
"Vitality!" Ling Yunfeng murmured, his eyes becoming extremely surprised.
Having wandered between life and death many times, he soon recognized that the strange energy in the air was actually the power of vitality. This power of vitality can quickly restore damaged tissues in the body, and even more terrifyingly, it can even bring people back to life.
It's not impossible.
I just don’t know how there is vitality in this cave. Although this vitality is extremely weak, it actually exists in the air.
"Go in first, I know you have a lot of questions, I will tell you after you go in." Ling Cang looked at Ling Yunfeng's confused expression and said, before he finished speaking, he pressed on the stone wall.
"Boom!" As Ling Cang pressed his hand, a loud noise suddenly sounded from the stone wall. Then he saw a stone block moving slowly on the stone wall in front of him, and a hole that could only allow one person to pass quickly appeared in the stone wall.
superior.
As the entrance of the cave appeared, a dazzling green light suddenly flashed out. The strong light made Ling Yunfeng close his eyes for a while, and then slowly opened his eyes after a while.
Immediately, a cave entrance with dazzling green light appeared in front of me, and bursts of white mist poured out of the cave entrance, like a fairy's cave, giving it an ethereal feeling.
He picked up the tip of his nose and gently inhaled a few wisps of white mist into his body. Ling Yunfeng felt refreshed in his body, and even the Heaven Refining Technique started to operate automatically.
After a moment, the white mist that was inhaled into the body turned into traces of pure martial energy that filled the veins.
"This...? It's spiritual energy. This white mist is spiritual energy." Ling Yunfeng was surprised in his heart, and then he was a little shocked. The spiritual energy had turned into a liquid state. How rich is this spiritual energy?
"Come in." Ling Cang waved and walked into the cave first, followed closely by the three brothers Ling Zhanxuan. Ling Yunfeng hesitated for a moment and then followed in curiously.
Through the entrance of the cave, a cave space with an area of 100 meters square suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The cave was brightly illuminated by a strange green light, and the rich white mist transformed by spiritual energy was billowing in the cave, like a sea of clouds. The white mist was so thick that everyone could see objects three meters away.
Just can't see clearly.
"Hey, that's...?" Ling Yunfeng's eyes first noticed the center of the cave, where there was a pool with a diameter of about ten meters. The pool was filled with a green liquid, but this liquid was as crystal clear as jade.
Translucent, bursts of soft green light bloomed, and the pool was filled with a rich spiritual white mist.
In the center of the pool, there is a green lotus growing. The whole lotus is crystal clear, as crystal clear as jade.
"What kind of elixir is that?" Ling Yunfeng murmured with doubtful eyes. There was no information about this green lotus in his memory.
Ling Yunfeng could feel the traces of vitality coming out of this pool, and there seemed to be a strange aura in this vitality.
This aura was ancient and vicissitudes of life. Under this aura, Ling Yunfeng felt that the martial energy in his body had completely stagnated. He was unable to muster the courage to resist at all, and a feeling of insignificance arose spontaneously.
"Want to know what that is?" At this moment, Ling Cang looked at the green lotus in the center of the cave and suddenly said.
"Yeah." Ling Yunfeng nodded subconsciously.
"That is Xuan Ling's heart." Ling Cang said.
"Mysterious Heart? What is that?" Ling Yunfeng murmured doubtfully.
"You don't need to know so clearly what it is. It won't do you any good to know now. All you need to know is that this is one of the most precious treasures in the world. Countless powerful people will fight for it if they know it." Ling Cang said: "This is
The treasure combines life and destruction."
"The most precious treasure in the world... a combination of life and destruction?" Ling Yunfeng murmured in a low voice, his eyes looking extremely shocked.
"Have you seen these elixirs?" Ling Cang said, pointing to the densely packed elixirs in the cave.
"Yeah!" Ling Yunfeng nodded blankly. There are many medicinal materials that are extremely precious in the outside world growing in this cave, and the growth of each elixir is several times better than that in the outside world. It must be because of this.
Because of the extremely rich spiritual energy in the cave.
"These elixirs may take hundreds of years to mature in the outside world, but the Xuanling Heart is placed here, constantly pulling the spiritual energy from the outside world to gather here, so that the spiritual energy in this cave is several times richer than the outside world.
Under the blessing of this treasure, these elixirs can mature in almost a dozen years, and the medicinal power of the elixirs has not weakened at all, but has been greatly enhanced. This is the vitality of this treasure." Ling Cang said.
"What?" Ling Yunfeng asked in surprise. He didn't expect that this treasure could actually shorten the maturity period of the elixir.
I'm afraid that this alone is enough to make many people crazy. You must know that some rare elixirs are of great benefit to cultivation. It's just that the higher the level of the elixir, the longer the maturity period. This leads to the rise of high-level elixirs.
Medicine is scarce.
"As for destruction?" Ling Cang said slightly, then slowly stretched out his withered palm, directly picked up a stone weighing several dozen kilograms from the air and threw it towards the turquoise pool.
Just when Ling Yunfeng was confused about Ling Cang's actions, the huge stone suddenly solidified just when it was about to touch the surface of the green liquid, and then suddenly exploded with a popping sound while Ling Yunfeng was stunned.
Instantly or dissipated into the air as ashes.
"This..." Ling Yunfeng's eyes were stunned, and he immediately took a breath of cold air and directly turned a boulder into ashes. Isn't this too powerful? This requires at least the strength of King Wu to do this.
"Okay, I should talk to you about some things." Ling Cang looked at Ling Yunfeng's surprised expression, seemed a little satisfied, smiled slightly, and then said: "Do you know how powerful our Ling family was when we were the strongest?
Is it strong?"
"Isn't it the ancestor of Ling Tianfeng, the powerful Martial Emperor?" Ling Yunfeng said, this was what he heard casually when he paid homage to his ancestors that day.
"No, the ancestors of Ling Tianfeng are only the first generation ancestors who led our Ling family to Qingfu City. They are not the strongest ancestors of our Ling family." Ling Cang said with a smile and shook his head. Immediately, a look of pride appeared on his face.
He said excitedly: "Actually, our Ling family was more powerful than the Hunwu Academy at its peak, and there were not many forces or families in the entire Xuanling Continent that could compare with our Ling family.
The first generation ancestor of the Ling family was one of the strongest in the entire Xuanling Continent. At that time, almost no one in the entire Xuanling Continent could compete with the ancestor. However, later due to some reasons, the ancestor unfortunately died, and the Ling family gradually declined.
After thousands of years, it finally became what it is now."
At the end of the sentence, Ling Cang couldn't help but have a sad look on his face. Thinking about how powerful the Ling family was back then, and how proud and passionate every Ling family member was, he didn't expect that he would be reduced to this level now.
How can we not make every Ling family member sigh with regret.
