Shen Lang pondered for a while and said, "Take me to the altar where the ancient coffin was found."
"yes……"
The young man in brocade gritted his teeth and could only agree.
Anyway, the black ancient coffin is not on his body now, and the golden-eyed stone ape in front of him cannot grab anything even if he thinks about it.
Soon, the young man in Jinyi led Shen Lang underground, passed through a long and narrow hole, and came to an empty underground secret room.
Shen Lang finally saw the so-called underground altar. The altar was intact and there was an offering table placed in the center of the altar.
There is a black tablet placed on the altar table, with four large bloody characters engraved on it: Styx Goddess!
"Styx Goddess?"
Shen Lang was greatly shocked.
Sure enough, it confirmed his suspicion that the female corpse in the black coffin was most likely the maid of the long-lost Styx Goddess!
This underground altar, as well as the tablets on the table, should be dedicated to the Goddess of Styx.
As for why the maidservant of the Styx Goddess appeared here, it is unknown.
Shen Lang turned his gaze to the young man in brocade clothes and asked, "Besides the black coffin, is there anything else found here?"
The young man in brocade clothes shook his head and said: "Other than that, there is no discovery. It is very likely that the body of the Goddess of Styx is sealed in the coffin. The three palace masters used their great magical powers to seal the evil power in the coffin and sent the coffin away.
Go to Linlang City."
Shen Lang felt a little ridiculous. How could something that exuded evil power be the body of the Goddess of Styx.
Shen Lang was deeply impressed by the body of the Styx Goddess. The body of the Styx Goddess was elegant, sad, profound, and ethereal, and did not give off such a bad atmosphere.
The remnant soul of the maidservant of the Styx Goddess is composed of two parts. One is the breath of the goddess's blood mixed with the maidservant's physical will, and the other is the resentment permeating the goddess's tomb, which is similar to an energy like an evil spirit.
The two energies were combined, and after countless years of evolution, the maidservant used the power of this residual soul to regain a "new life".
The black coffin had a strong evil aura and could feel strong resentment. This made Shen Lang seriously suspect that the maidservant of the Goddess of Styx in the coffin had lost her mind and her soul was occupied by evil thoughts, so she sealed herself!
This is not good news for Shen Lang.
If that black coffin is opened, there will be endless troubles! Maybe the maidservant of the Goddess of Styx, who has lost her mind, will come specifically to cause trouble for me because she has the blood of the Goddess in her body!
Of course, the above is limited to Shen Lang's speculation.
"By the way, I heard that the lord of Linlang City is good at puppetry. Is this true?" Shen Lang asked curiously.
"That's true. The city lord's puppet skills are unparalleled in the world. With the strength of the city lord, even a real spirit in this world can still fight!" The young man in brocade said seriously, as if he admired the city lord of Linlang City very much.
.
Hearing what he said, Shen Lang felt relieved a little.
If the city lord of Linlang City really had a way to subdue the maidservant of the Styx Goddess in the coffin, he would be saved from a big invisible trouble.
If nothing happens, that's the best.
…
Linlang City is located in the northwest of the God Buried Desert, covering an area of approximately tens of millions of miles. It is a rare oasis in the God Buried Desert.
The entire Linlang City was shrouded in a huge golden barrier, and sandstorms could not invade it.
There are various buildings and shops and lofts in the city, which is quite prosperous. There are densely packed monks walking back and forth in the city, and there are a lot of escaping lights in the sky.
The City Lord's Palace is located in a large palace in the center of Linlang City.
A few days later, inside the city lord's mansion.
Yinchen, Master Mingshan and Xuekui came with black coffins to return Zhong Wanshan's life.
The city lord Zhong Wanshan is also a human monk. He looks like an old man with a yellow face and a hooked nose, which gives people the impression that the city is quite deep.
This person's cultivation reached its peak in the late Mahayana period, and he was also a top expert known to everyone in the God Burial Desert.
The black coffin was placed in the hall of the palace. A floating jade Ruyi and a golden alms bowl emitted brilliant light, suppressing the evil aura emitted by the coffin.
"Hahaha, God is really helping me. It is said that the Goddess of the Styx is a super powerful person in the land of Nanyuan in ancient times. It is said that this person is also a true immortal in the upper world. It just so happens that the 'Twelve Heavenly Demons' that I practice still lacks a master.
Puppet, if this coffin is really the body of a goddess, I will be able to master the Mahayana technique, and it will definitely not be a problem to fight against ordinary lower-level true spirits!"
Zhong Wanshan laughed loudly and looked quite excited.
"Congratulations to the city lord, congratulations to the city lord!"
Yin Chen and the other three people cupped their fists.
"All the mining monks and you all have their contributions. The Japanese city lord is in a good mood today. I don't care what reward you three want." Zhong Wanshan said with a smile.
Yin Chen hesitated for a while, then clasped his fists and said, "Sir City Lord, we encountered a strange monk during the process of transporting the coffin."
"Who is it? The news has not been exposed, right?" Zhong Wanshan frowned.
Yin Chen completely explained the encounter with Shen Lang to Zhong Wanshan.
"Oh, human monks, do they also have magical powers in the mysterious realm?"
Zhong Wanshan snorted coldly and said: "Since this person is just asking for information and has no hostility towards you, he is not an enemy. If he is really interested in the body in the coffin, he should take action at that time. Since he
If you don't take action, it means that this person is not as strong as you think, or that this person has no interest in coffins."
Just then.
Suddenly a loud shout came from outside the palace: "My subordinate Chen Feng, I have something important to ask to see the Lord of the City!"
"Come in." Zhong Wanshan responded.
The door of the palace was opened, and a young man wearing brocade clothes quickly walked into the hall, looking slightly hurried.
This person was the early Mahayana monk guarding the underground spiritual mine that Shen Lang threatened to question a few days ago.
"Chen Feng, didn't I ask you to guard the underground spiritual mine? Why did you come here at this time?" Zhong Wanshan frowned.
"Back to the city lord, something happened! I feel that I must come and report to you in person."
The young man in Jinyi was frightened and carefully told the story of Shen Lang's intrusion into the spirit mine territory.
Because he was afraid that Zhong Wanshan would anger him, he deliberately concealed his fault, saying that they were not Shen Lang's opponents and could not stop each other. It was Shen Lang who broke into the altar and knew everything.
"What are you talking about? That monk is actually a golden-eyed stone ape?" Zhong Wanshan was finally shocked, his eyes widened.
"Yes, that monk is really a golden-eyed stone ape, and his strength is extremely terrifying. However, he did not kill any of our monks, he just asked for some information and then left."
The young man in brocade quickly replied.
Zhong Wanshan's expression was gloomy and uncertain. He glanced at Yin Chen and said coldly: "Didn't you say that boy is a human monk?"
"This... subordinates didn't know that the monk was hiding so deeply and managed to track down our spiritual mine territory in Linlang City!" Yin Chen's face twitched slightly.
