This is a square, not very big, about four to five feet in diameter.
After all, there are not many members of the Xie family, and this square should be the place where they hold sacrifices when they worship their ancestors.
The square is paved with bluestone slabs, and there is a stone pillar every four or five meters away. The stone pillars are just ordinary stone pillars, inconspicuous at all. However, there are so many stone pillars erected in such a large square, which makes people feel a little strange.
In the center of the square, there is a huge bronze tripod. Its four legs are as thick as human thighs and it is one foot tall. No one knows what it is used for.
On the opposite side of the square, against the mountain, there is a three-story attic. The attic is not grand, but the words "ancestral temple" hanging on the door add a sense of solemnity.
On such an occasion, even Hua Yueming, who was eager to obtain the art of ascending the dragon, couldn't help but restrain herself. She looked around a few times and saw Ye Qian sitting on the ground without any image, panting.
, I was a little surprised in my heart. Not only was this guy very scheming, but he was also very strong and had great potential.
You know, it was very difficult for her to get up, but she finally took the pill. To be honest, Hua Yueming was a little surprised that this guy was able to climb up to the square.
However, she didn't have the intention to pay attention to these at the moment. She was surprised for a while and then became concerned about the things in front of her. She raised her head and looked at the ancestral temple over there, and her heart suddenly became excited. The art of ascending the dragon is in there.
As long as she gets it, she can just hang out here for a few days without any effort to explore the ruins.
Seeing that the ancestral temple was right in front of her, Hua Yueming couldn't wait and said to Ye Qian: "Why are you still hanging around? Go to the ancestral temple!"
Ye Qian looked tired and exhausted, and gasped: "Elder Hua, it's not like you haven't walked through those steps before. I was able to climb up only at the risk of my life. How can I still have it now?"
Do you have the strength to move? Let me rest for a while. If Elder Hua can't wait, you might as well try to see if you can enter the ancestral temple yourself."
Hua Yueming was dissatisfied, but unfortunately, what Ye Qian said was true. He is currently playing the role of Tan Fengshen, and Tan Fengshen only has the cultivation level of the seventh level of Dao Realm, which is still in the early stages. Hua Yueming himself is surprised to be able to climb up.
, most likely due to the elixir that stimulated his potential. It does seem inappropriate to let him explore the ancestral temple like this.
After thinking about it, Hua Yueming said, "I'll give you a moment to burn incense and adjust your breathing."
Ye Qian nodded in agreement and began to close his eyes and adjust his breathing.
In fact, there were two reasons why Ye Qian stopped. First, it was difficult for him to act like nothing was wrong. After all, the pressure on the steps was so terrifying that even Hua Hua
It's so difficult for Yue Mingdu. If he jumped up and down and was full of energy, fools would doubt him.
The second and most important reason was that after Ye Qian climbed up, he noticed that something was very wrong with the square. He couldn't tell what was wrong specifically, but one thing was certain.
So there is coercion because of this square.
The stone pillars in the square look ordinary, but in fact, they seem to contain a very mysterious formation. Ye Qian can't understand it, but he can feel it. Moreover, there is the bronze in the center of the square.
The tripod actually made Ye Qian feel very mysterious.
Yes, it was fantasy. Ye Qian could clearly feel the bronze tripod, but when he wanted to use his eyes or even his spiritual sense to peek at it, he found that there was nothing in his perception...!
This is extremely abnormal and strange, and is also the basis for Ye Qian to determine that the stone pillars in the square are a formation.
After discovering that this place is not simple, even though Ye Qian has never been afraid of dangers, how could he rush in recklessly before things were clear?
He was now eager for Hua Yueming to covet the art of ascending the dragon, so he hurried over and helped him explore the way.
However, he overestimated Hua Yueming's greed. To be precise, Hua Yueming was indeed extremely greedy for the art of ascending the dragon. But the problem was that she also understood that if she wanted to obtain the art of ascending the dragon, she would inevitably
There was a huge danger. In order to obtain the art of ascending the dragon, Hua Yueming was not happy that he fell into such terrible danger.
To put it bluntly, she was afraid of death.
She cherishes her own life more than obtaining the art of ascending the dragon.
Ye Qian was not in a hurry. He seemed to be adjusting his breath on the ground. In fact, he didn't need to adjust his breath at all. He just wanted to numb Hua Yueming. In addition, he also took this opportunity to pay more attention to this place.
For some reason, Ye Qian always felt that it was too weird to come to this place after climbing the steps.
It was said to be an ancestral temple, but he had never seen anyone's ancestral temple look like this? What made him most confused was that the entire Xie family, everywhere, had suffered a devastating blow. The houses
Collapse, the palace collapsed, and there were even large potholes several feet deep in many places, which shows how tragic the battle was.
But the strange thing is that not even a single brick or stone was damaged in the square halfway up the mountain, let alone being extensively damaged. The ancestral temple is located over there, but it is also intact.
Ye Qian couldn't understand this. The ancestral temple stored the art of ascending the dragon. Did the person who asked the realm really not know about it at all? Why, all the places were beaten to pieces by him.
But this is the place where we should be most suspicious, and he won't come?
Ye Qian couldn't figure this out anyway. However, there was no time for him to think about it.
As time slowly passed, Hua Yueming began to feel anxious. In the camp outside, although there must have been turmoil for a while due to the death of several disciples, several elders would definitely put their thoughts on
Regarding defense and catching the murderer, I don't have the energy to focus on this for the time being.
But who knows if an accident will happen? If someone discovers that she is not in the camp, and the formation that enters the Xie family's ancient ruins has signs of being opened, those people will probably chase her in.
By that time, even if she, Hua Yueming, had mastered the art of ascending the dragon, it would be of no use.
This matter must be carried out in secret. Obtain the art of ascending the dragon quietly, take it back to the sect quietly, and quietly make a fortune. It must not be leaked at all, otherwise, if others find out, the other five major sects will
How can a person be willing to do so?
At that time, Luo Yuemen will face a situation where the five major sects will come to their door together. At that time, the five major sects will join forces to deal with your family, and Luo Yuemen will be unable to resist!
Therefore, Hua Yueming felt that the matter could not be delayed any longer. She walked to Ye Qian and said impatiently: "How long do you want to rest? If we delay further, those people will find out that we are missing, and the matter will not be resolved.
It’s over!”
Ye Qian knew that she was right, and there seemed to be no good results if he delayed any longer. However, Ye Qian kept hesitating because the strange situation in front of him brought him great confusion and worry.
This kind of emotion is very rare to see in Ye Qian. He has always been decisive in killing and extremely calm in situations.
But this time, after all, what we faced was not an extraordinary existence, but something related to the Taoist Realm, and it was related to the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire Formation that could suppress the powerful power of the Taoist Realm.
These... Ye Qian couldn't help but be careless.
It's just that we can't delay it any longer now. He also has Hua Yueming's worries. If he is discovered by the other five major sects in the valley camp and is blocked by them in this ancient ruins, it will be really painful.
So, Ye Qian patted his butt, stood up, and said, "Let's go, Elder Hua, let's go to the entrance of the ancestral temple and see what's going on."
Hua Yueming hummed, but looked at Ye Qian. Seeing what he meant, he still wanted Ye Qian to walk in front. Ye Qian was speechless, curled his lips, and walked towards the edge of the square. Hua Yueming followed him for two seconds.
After taking a step, he said with some confusion: "Why don't you just go directly instead of going around so far? Didn't I tell you everything? For us, time is very tight!"
Ye Qian did not comment, just smiled and said: "Oh? OK, Elder Hua wants to pass through the center of the square, so please feel free to do so. Anyway, I will go to the edge and would rather take a detour."
Hua Yueming was made angry and helpless by Ye Qian's words, but she had no choice. Ye Qian's attitude certainly made her furious, but at the same time, she really did not dare to cross the square.
This place is very strange. Hua Yueming is not a fool, so he naturally noticed it. Otherwise, this woman would not keep asking Ye Qian to walk in front.
Now Ye Qian has to take a long way around, what can she say?
She closed her mouth in a depressed manner and said no more, but in her heart, she had already scolded Ye Qian over and over again. After the scolding, Hua Yueming was already determined, and after getting Shenglong
After the operation, this guy must be killed! When the time comes, he will either blame the other five major sects, or simply say that this guy was killed by a trap in the ruins.
In short... Along the way, Hua Yueming has been successfully provoked by Ye Qian to kill him, and he will never let it go.
Ye Qian knew it well, but he didn't pick it out. He walked straight from the edge of the square and made a long circle, and finally arrived in front of the ancestral temple.
Hua Yueming didn't know what Ye Qian meant by doing this, but Ye Qian knew that he really didn't dare to walk into the square, especially... the bronze tripod near the center area.
Although Ye Qian said that he did not study the formation too much, he understood it somewhat. No matter how he looked at the stone pillars in the square, their arrangement and the certain field contained in them, Ye Qian decided that this
There is a formation on the square, and the materials used to arrange the formation are those stone pillars.
As for the bronze tripod, there is no doubt that it is the centerpiece of the entire formation!
Otherwise, the strength of Ye Qian's current spiritual consciousness, even if it is not as good as the ninth level of the Peeping Dao Realm, is not much different, but he cannot sense the exact situation of the bronze tripod at all!
"This is the Xie family's ancestral hall?" Hua Yueming didn't know Ye Qian's thoughts. When she came to the ancestral hall, she couldn't help but curl her lips: "Is this also called the ancestral hall? Compared with my ancestor's ancestral hall in Luo Yuemen, it is really
