The three of them stood on a dilapidated road, looking at the ruins in front of them. Many unknown plants grew upward along the gaps in the broken wall, and their branches climbed up along the main trunk on the gap. The entire wall
The entire floor is green, but through some gaps you can see the walls wrapped in plants.
Among these ruins, the most conspicuous thing is a huge pool in the middle.
Generally, it is difficult for a pool to appear on the top of a mountain, because water flows downwards, and the water on the top of the mountain will eventually seep into the ground. This pool is kept like this because of special treatment by the ancient Hua sect.
The most precious and beautiful lotus in Liyue was cultivated in the former pond. It was also the largest lotus pond in Liyue, even surpassing the one at Yujing Terrace.
But where are the lotus flowers now? Only a few solitary ice slimes remain in the pool, standing on the frozen ice.
Looking at these, Ke Qing was not only a little emotional.
"Even the ancient Hua Sect, which was at its peak for a while, will eventually decline. So looking at Liyue, which is so prosperous now, will it eventually come to an end?"
"That's natural." Surprisingly, Ningguang did not deny Keqing's hypothesis, but confirmed her statement.
"Just like when we go up to Tianheng Mountain, after walking uphill, we will naturally go downhill. Nothing in the world can remain in its peak forever, including you, me, and even gods."
"But at least, the end of Liyue will not appear today, nor will it appear in your or my hands, right? Ke Qing."
"That's right. For Liyue, we may have just reached the foot of the mountain. All I can do is try my best to climb the mountain."
Ningguang and Keqing stood together, facing the same direction, which was Liyue Port. Unfortunately, the raised mountains blocked their sight, and they could not see Liyue Port directly.
"Of course, this is the responsibility of Qixing and I."
The child's cheerful voice brought back Ning Guang and Ke Qing's wistful thoughts, and they both looked towards the place where the voice came from.
"Sister Ningguang, sister Keqing, come and take a look, there seems to be something here?!"
Ke Qing's voice sounded a little unhappy: "Xiao Mo! You can't run around by yourself when you're outside, you know? Don't leave me and Ning Guang casually."
However, Ningguang's tone was quite relaxed: "It doesn't matter, there is no danger around here, right? Since the little guy said it, let's go over and have a look."
"This is?" The three of them stood in front of a cave with obvious artificial traces, but the cave was cut off by a smooth stone wall, but there were several extinguished stone lanterns in front of the stone wall.
Ning Guang looked at it and said with a smile: "This stone wall is smooth and flat. It might be the gate of some strange treasure hiding place."
"I heard my grandfather mention these stone lanterns." Keqing squatted down and carefully observed the worn-out stone lanterns on the ground.
"My grandfather likes to study the ancient culture of Liyue that has been lost or has little inheritance. According to him, this lantern is a strange thing that can carry the spirit."
"What do you mean? Sister Keqing, is there anything magical about this lantern?" Zhong Mo looked left and right, but couldn't see anything strange. He even hit it a few times with his sword.
"Let me think about it, it is said that there are many disciples of the Guhua Sect. In order for each disciple to be taught, the leader of the Guhua Sect at that time specifically asked the immortal for advice and made a lantern that could contain his own martial arts artistic conception. This lantern was made of
A special kind of ore is used as a wick, and the artistic conception contained in it can even last for thousands of years."
Zhong Mo lowered his head and looked inside the stone lantern. It was empty, with nothing in it.
"This lantern has no wick, Sister Keqing."
"This is just a legend, Xiaomo, this lantern is not necessarily the original lantern. It is normal to have no wick."
At this time, Ningguang suddenly said: "This is not certain, Ke Qing."
"What's wrong? Ningguang, why did you say that?"
"You also know that my God's Eye is a rock, so since I got close to this ruins just now, I can really feel something strange in this ruins. How about it? Do you want to go and see it?"
"Is this the thing you said made you feel strange?"
Keqing stood in front of a very strange-looking piece of ore, which was revealed after she removed the camouflage on its surface. It had some strange and even sharp edges and corners, the surface was black and yellow, and there seemed to be a faint light inside.
Reveal it.
"You two stand back."
Keqing signaled Ningguang and Zhong Mo to stay away, and she stood up and swung a purple lightning bolt towards the strange ore. Instantly, the ore came into contact with the elemental power and exploded directly. A golden light flew out from the ore.
Fly towards Keqing and surround her.
"Are you okay? Keqing?"
Seeing the golden light, Ning Guang couldn't help but ask Ke Qing.
"I'm fine, Ningguang, you don't have to worry, but I also understand something."
Keqing felt the golden light swirling around her.
"I see, all we need to do next is to introduce this light into the stone lantern just now."
The three of them came to the stone lantern in front of the stone wall again. The golden light swirling around Keqing flew into the stone lantern. Suddenly the lantern lit up, and a ray of light flew into Keqing's forehead.
Zhong Mo and Ning Guang quickly turned around to look, only to find that Ke Qing was standing there with her eyes closed.
"What should I do? Sister Ningguang, Sister Keqing, nothing will happen to her, right?"
Ning Guang looked at Ke Qing carefully, and did not see any pain on her face. Instead, she seemed to be deep in thought: "It's okay, don't worry, Xiao Mo. If my guess is right, this is Ke Qing's face."
There’s no telling what the chances of it being sunny will be.”
After a while, Keqing opened her eyes. She saluted the stone lantern in front of her, and then said to the lantern: "Thank you, senior. This junior has benefited a lot."
"What's wrong? Sister Keqing?" Zhong Mo asked Keqing curiously.
"I'm fine. It's just that this golden light contains the martial arts artistic conception of the seniors of the ancient Hua sect. I just received the inheritance from my seniors, which is very helpful for improving my swordsmanship."
"Then you have a lot of luck today, Keqing." Ningguang smiled slightly and looked at the other three empty stone lanterns in front of the stone wall.
"After all, the Guhua sect is good at spears and swords, so you are the only one we can directly use."
As for Zhong Mo, Ning Guang, a disciple of the Immortal, doesn't think she needs the skills of a mortal.
