Just as the Transformation Ceremony was in full swing, Shi Mu had already avoided many light and dark sentry posts based on the information he had previously obtained, walked half a circle around the perimeter of Lingtian Peak, and finally stopped at an inconspicuous place at the bottom of the peak.
In front of the rock wall.
Shi Mu's figure was hidden in a small forest not far from the rock wall.
In front of the rock wall, four monster men with tiger heads and bodies stood motionless.
The eyes of these four people were filled with light. Their black and yellow furry arms were either held in front of their chests, or they were holding a sword with one hand on their shoulders. They were all demon generals who had reached the innate level of cultivation.
There is a similar scene every few tens of feet at the bottom of Lingtian Peak. The people stationed there are four semi-transformed monsters whose strength has reached the innate level.
With such strength, even an ordinary earth-level expert would not be able to kill him silently.
Shi Mu looked past the four demon generals and looked at the rock wall carefully. After closing his eyes and meditating for a moment, he took out a cyan talisman with one hand and patted it on his body. Then a red light flashed in his hand, and an additional
A red long bow.
He strung his bow, his eyes flashed with golden light, and the four demon generals in front of him suddenly seemed to be very close at hand.
"Whoosh" sounded almost at the same time!
Two bolts flew out like lightning, and with just a flash, they pierced the throats of the two tiger-headed monsters.
The remaining two tiger-headed demon generals were shocked. Just as they were about to take action, a green light flashed in front of them, and Shi Mu's figure appeared silently. He held a knife in his right hand and a fist in his left hand, and struck out respectively.
Immediately, the two head monsters fell to the ground silently and died. One of them was split into two pieces with a knife, and the other's head was broken like a watermelon.
Shi Mu took out the beast soul bag, collected the beast souls of the four demon generals, and used fireballs to dissolve the corpses.
Then, he turned over with one hand, and a dark red crystal appeared in his hand, which was Ling Yanjing!
Shi Mu pointed the crystal at the rock wall in front and muttered something. Suddenly a beam of light shot out from the surface of the crystal and landed on the cliff in front. The light flowed on the surface of the rock wall, revealing a cave.
Shi Mu suppressed the excitement in his heart, took a deep breath, and stepped in.
After passing through a dim path, a huge open space appeared in front of Shi Mu.
Shi Mu's eyes were filled with golden light. After scanning the surroundings and confirming that there were no guards or other restrictions inside, he slowly walked in.
Although he had been here before in his dreams, Shi Mu could not hide his excitement when he saw it with his own eyes.
The same space, the same twelve giant gray stone pillars... everything is the same as in the dream, but everything seems a bit primitive, obviously leaving traces of time.
When he used Ling Yanjing to enter Lingtian Peak, he was still a little unsure, but everything he saw afterwards made him more and more convinced that the white ape in his dream was the white ape who once led a group of demons to dominate the Xihe Continent.
Ape Demon King.
There are only some scenes that appear in several other dreams, but they are still a mystery.
But at the moment, he didn't have time to think about it that much.
He did not touch those gray stone pillars. After carefully bypassing them, he walked into a passage on one side of the space based on his memory.
Inside is a stone staircase spiraling up.
Because in the previous dream, White Ape and his party walked up this section of the stone staircase very fast, passing through many floors without stopping at all, so he could only vaguely remember the general situation at the door of the secret room, but could not remember exactly what White Ape was.
Which floor did the others end up on?
However, according to his estimation, it is at least ten floors above.
Based on the information he got from a transformed Moon Bear Clan guard commander who sneaked into the vicinity of Lingtian Peak a few nights ago, there should be two places that are most similar to the secret rooms above the tenth floor that match the appearance of his dream.
, the sixteenth floor and the twenty-first floor.
The dark stone staircase passage was cold and damp, and occasionally exuded a rotting stench. The stone steps were covered with moss, and some viscous green liquid was slowly flowing down the stone steps, making the footing a little slippery.
Shi Mu's eyes were filled with golden light. From time to time, some small runes could be seen on the buttress on one side. It should be some kind of warning and restriction set by the demon clan here. If you don't pay attention and touch it, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
The movement even attracted guards.
Although Shi Mu thought that with his current strength, it would not be a problem to deal with a few monster guards in disguise, but if this happens, the plan will most likely be shelved.
After all, although the Cang Yuan King temporarily left Lingtian Peak to preside over the Transformation Ceremony, if there is any trouble in Lingtian Peak, there is no guarantee that he will have no other means to know about it, and he will definitely rush back as soon as possible.
Shi Mu didn't think that he could hide it from the eyes of the powerful demon tribe in heaven, let alone open the seal and obtain the blood of the white ape.
With the blessing of his spiritual eyes, Shi Mu climbed up the steps, carefully avoiding various restrictions on the passages and floors along the way.
Along the way, there are not guards on every floor.
On floors where there are guards, with Shi Mu's current cultivation level and the green cloak around him, he can usually bypass them without anyone noticing. But if that doesn't work, he will hide in the corridor for a while, waiting for the guards to show up.
Pay attention and then try to pass.
On the first ten floors, Shi Mu didn't stop at all along the way.
Until the eleventh floor, every time he passed a floor, he would pause for a moment and hide in the dark to take a closer look.
After all, so much time has passed, and it is still unknown whether the internal structure of Lingtian Peak will change. Moreover, the information obtained from the guards of the Moon Bear Clan may not necessarily be accurate. His opportunity to sneak into Lingtian Peak is precious, and he does not want to miss any of it.
possibility.
As a result, the floor structure from the eleventh to the fifteenth floor was completely different from that in the dream.
When Shi Mu arrived at the entrance to the sixteenth floor, he felt a burst of bright lights in front of him. Like the previous floors, it was also a huge space hundreds of feet in size. The difference was that there were people everywhere from top to bottom.
The stalactite-like boulders emit soft light, illuminating the entire space.
Deep in the space, there is a seemingly inconspicuous stone chamber. There are no restrictions on the surface of the stone chamber, and on both sides of the space, there are some passages leading to unknown directions.
What made Shi Mu a little happy was that there wasn't even a single guard in the huge space.
This is one of the two suspicious secret places, and it is very similar to the floor where Bai Yuan and others stayed in the dream.
Shi Mu suppressed the excitement in his heart and did not step directly into it. Instead, his eyes flickered with golden light and he looked around.
Sure enough, on the surface of these boulders that look like stalactites, there are circles of extremely fine runes engraved on them. Between the roots of the boulders, there is some kind of almost transparent light connection, like a spider web, almost full of
There is only one trail left on the ground in the entire space, which can be passed safely.
It's hard to say what will happen if you step in rashly and touch the transparent light between these boulders.
If it weren't for Shi Mu's amazing eyesight and being on guard, he probably wouldn't have discovered it at all.
Shi Mu took a deep breath and used his consciousness to scan the entire space again. After confirming that there were no guards nearby, he cautiously stepped forward towards the secret room.
As a result, when they were still more than ten feet away from the stone chamber, a few low voices came from the passage on one side.
Shi Mu's heart trembled, and with a sweep of his consciousness, he discovered that two transformed guards with innate strength were walking towards here.
Shi Mu quickly quickened his pace, but he still remained vigilant and did not dare to touch the transparent light on the ground.
Finally, before the two guards entered the space, they came to the door of the stone room and pushed the door directly in.
As a result, not long after the stone door was closed, a sound of gradually approaching voices came from outside the door.
"Tsk, tsk, the Transformation Ceremony is held once every ten years. Unfortunately, I still can't attend this year."
"I'll be a guard for a few more years. As long as I perform well, Lord Cang Yuan King will personally give us the Transformation Pill. What's the point of participating in this kind of Transformation Ceremony?"
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"There seems to be a strange smell here. Has someone been here?"
"Is your dog's nose too sensitive? Who else will come here today besides you and me? Besides, this is the sixteenth floor!"
"That's right, let's go and take a look at the floor below."
The two voices gradually faded away.
Shi Mu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He leaned behind the stone door and listened for a while. After making sure that he was not discovered, he turned around and looked at the secret room in front of him.
However, the next moment, my heart screamed in pain.
There are no restrictions in this secret room, but although it is quite similar to the secret room in the dream, judging from the layout inside, it is obviously not the one in the dream.
But now that he's here, he doesn't plan to leave immediately.
There is a row of cabinets on one side of the secret room, with several exquisite small green bottles placed on them.
Shi Mu picked up a small bottle and opened the cork. A strong smell of blood filled the air, and at the same time a blood mist rose from the mouth of the bottle.
His heart moved, and he quickly capped the bottle. It seemed that it was a bottle of unknown blood essence, and it seemed to be of a high grade.
Shi Mu didn't think much and collected all the essence and blood. He walked around the house and found some strange spiritual herbs, several of which looked familiar.
Shi Mu slapped his forehead and suddenly remembered something.
These spiritual materials are exactly the precious spiritual materials that Master An said in the Earth Snake Tribe were needed to refine the Transformation Pill.
Shi Mu took out the small green bottle again and looked at it carefully. He heard that the most important thing in refining the Transformation Pill was the essence and blood of the Earth-level people and barbarians, and the bottle in his hand was undoubtedly the same thing.
The reason why the Transformation Pill is difficult to refine is because the essence and blood are difficult to find.
Shi Mu shook his head helplessly. These things had no value to him, but he still put them all into the storage ring.
After some searching, it was obvious that the white stone door seen in the dream was not here.
Shi Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
After regaining consciousness for a while, he came to the door of the secret room again, listened close to the stone door for a moment, and after confirming that no one was outside, he quietly left the secret room (~^~)
