Shi Mu followed Yan Luo all the way along the corridor, gradually changing from nervousness to surprise.
According to the situation along the way, the two of them should be on a high ground now.
There were still roars and exclamations coming from far and near from time to time, as if someone had triggered the restriction here, and even some sounds of fighting could be vaguely heard in the distance.
This is enough to confirm his previous judgment. Although the Kunlun Holy Ruins, as a ruins in the fairy world, has been abandoned for more than a thousand years, there are still many prohibitions and even guardian puppets left in it.
But with Yanluo leading the way, Shi Mu and Shi Mu were just strolling in the corridor without encountering any obstacles or restrictions.
Shi Mu looked at the back of Yan Luo, who was walking quickly in front of him, and became increasingly curious about the relationship between this place and him.
But judging from the current situation, Yanluo himself doesn't know why she is so familiar, and it is useless to ask him.
Since following her can avoid the forbidden puppets, Shi Mu naturally feels relaxed, and it is a good opportunity to get familiar with the situation here.
At that moment, he suppressed the surprise in his heart and followed closely.
Not long after, a three-way intersection appeared in front of them again.
One continues to climb, while the other seems to be flat.
Yan Luo looked back at Shi Mu here, hesitated for a moment, and chose the latter.
As a result, not long after walking, Shi Mu realized that the end was ahead.
Walking out of the corridor, what comes into view is an archway that is more than ten feet high and twenty feet wide, and is made of glazed and white jade. Although a small half of it is missing, the remaining part is also in complete ruins.
There are holes in it, but you can still see the grand momentum of the year.
The gilt plaque on the archway has the word "Langfeng" written on it.
Yanluo didn't stop and walked directly through the archway. The clouds and mist in front of him seemed to be a series of continuous mountain peaks.
When Shi Mu was here, he suddenly felt an incomparably rich aura of heaven and earth rushing towards his face, and his spirit was immediately lifted.
The golden light in his eyes was flowing, and he looked forward intently. He found that on these mountains, there were many medicinal gardens surrounded by square white jade fences. They were of different sizes. The big ones were several acres in diameter, while the small ones were only more than ten feet in size.
.
But then, he frowned.
The space fluctuations here are strong. If you look closely, you can see space cracks everywhere in the sky. If you want to go up the mountain, you can only walk on foot.
He glanced at Yan Luo and saw that he was still walking forward, and his heart moved.
With doubts, Shi Mu followed Yan Luo along the mountain road for about an hour and came to a medicine garden.
At a glance, this medicinal garden should have been abandoned long ago. There are no traces of the magical herbs and flowers in it. It is simply a deserted land.
"Don't come over here, wait for me where you are." Yanluo suddenly said, and then walked towards the medicine garden.
"Be careful, these two may be guardian puppets!" Shi Mu heard this and quickly warned.
As soon as he glanced around, he discovered that at the entrance of the medicine garden surrounded by white jade railings, on the left and right, were two lifelike animal-shaped statues.
Judging from the appearance, on the left is a rather strange-looking giant turtle, and on the right is a coiled python with its mouth open and fangs exposed.
Yanluo acted as if he didn't hear Shi Mu's reminder and walked straight forward.
When he came to the entrance of the medicine garden and just walked into the medicine garden, the eyes of the two animal-shaped statues on one right and one on the right suddenly lit up with a strange red light. Then he turned his head and looked towards Yanluo.
, at the same time exuding two auras that are definitely not inferior to the Heavenly Realm.
However, Yanluo continued to walk forward as if he had discovered nothing.
Shi Mu frowned and leaned forward, preparing to rush forward.
However, at this moment, a scene that stunned him appeared!
The two giant beast statues moved, but instead of attacking Yanluo, they crawled in front of him.
Without stopping, Yan Luo walked to a certain place in the medicine garden, raised one hand, and the soil below cracked, and two objects, one green and one yellow, flew out and fell into his hands.
She just glanced at him, then turned around and walked towards the door. When she walked in front of Shi Mu, she threw it at him.
"This is……"
Shi Mu caught it and saw that it was exactly the two things that had broken out of the ground before.
The green one is a small piece of plant stem that is shaped like a ginseng but has no roots, and can smell a bitter taste, while the yellow one is a ball of yellow soil.
He took a moment to look at it, and his heart suddenly became ecstatic.
Although he didn't know what this object was, he could feel the extremely rich wood-attribute aura and earth-attribute aura from it.
"This is the root and resting soil of ten thousand years, it will be helpful to you." Yanluo said.
"Thank you!" Shi Mu was not polite when he heard this, and carefully put the two items into the storage ring.
Leaving aside Xitu, if these ten thousand years are given time to be refined and absorbed, I am afraid that it will be enough to greatly increase the power of the current fourth round of mystical skills to turn into wood.
"You must improve your strength as soon as possible, because I have a hunch that time is running out." Yan Luo suddenly said this.
"Time is running out, what does this mean? Could it have something to do with heaven?" Shi Mu was startled, then thought of something and asked.
"Why specifically, I can't answer you now. This is just a premonition in my heart after I stepped here. But since you want to kill all the immortals in heaven, how can the immortals tolerate you?" Yan Luo said in a cold tone.
.
Shi Mu opened his mouth, then shook his head.
Speaking of which, he still only has a vague concept of Heavenly Court and Ten Thousand Immortals. He only knows that Heavenly Court should be in the so-called immortal world, and there should be some kind of deep hatred between him and the White Ape Ancestor who passed down his skills.
"The Immortal Realm...Kunlun is called the ruins of the Immortal Realm. Could it be related to the Heavenly Court?" Shi Mu suddenly thought of something.
"I don't know." Yanluo said.
Shi Mu smiled bitterly and looked back at the door of the medicine garden not far away. The two giant statues had already returned to their original positions, as if they had never been moved.
"Speaking of which, why would the puppet here do this to you?" Shi Mu asked.
"I can't tell you exactly. I just have an intuition that tells me they won't attack me." Yanluo said, turning around and walking towards another mountain path.
"I think you might have been here before entering the realm of the dead." Shi Mu asked.
"Maybe." Yan Luo said quietly without turning around.
In the next few days, under the leadership of Yan Luo, the two continued to search these mountains and found more than ten medicinal gardens of different sizes.
As before, Yan Luo can easily avoid the restrictions on the mountain, and the guardian puppets at the entrance of the medicine garden are useless to Yan Luo.
Although not every medicinal garden can find ten thousand-year-old roots and resting soil, there are still some quite rare spiritual herbs left in some medicinal gardens.
Yanluo didn't seem to need these things, so he gave them all to Shi Mu, which allowed him to collect seven or eight thousand-year-old roots and more than a dozen piles of soil in a few days, as well as many thousand-year-old spiritual herbs.
In this way, he is confident enough to practice the fourth level of Xuan Gong to the level of Dacheng, and he is even confident about the next fifth level of practice.
But as time went by, other teams began to appear on these mountains, and the guardian puppets at the entrances of some of the medicine gardens they found had been defeated.
Obviously there should be more than one road leading to this mountainous area.
It has been less than ten days since everyone entered the Holy Ruins, and there is no Black Demon clan among these teams. When Shi Mu and other teams met, although both sides were wary, they were at peace for the time being.
Shi Mu had now basically achieved the purpose of coming here, so at his suggestion, Yan Luo took him back to the previous corridor along the original route.
Two days later, the two left the corridor, and after bypassing a lotus pond several hundred feet in size, they came to a circular corridor.
From here, you can see a dense collection of palaces and pavilions ahead.
In front of these palaces, there is also a huge white jade archway with the word "Tianyong" written on it.
The degree of damage to the palaces and pavilions here is more serious than those seen before, and collapsed palace walls and roofs can be seen everywhere.
Between the corridor and these palace attics, there is a circular moat that is about ten feet wide. The river is so deep that the bottom cannot be seen.
On the moat, there are nine stone bridges that look like long white dragons, connecting the palace area inside with the circular corridor.
Yanluo gently stroked one hand on the railing of the circular corridor, looking towards the ruins with a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.
"Did you remember something again?" Shi Mu glanced at Yanluo and asked.
When Yan Luo heard this, he shook his head slightly, but his eyes seemed a little sad.
"Let's go." Seeing this, Shi Mu didn't ask any more questions.
Under the leadership of Yan Luo, the two walked across the third stone bridge from the right.
However, as soon as the two people walked across the stone bridge, a figure suddenly appeared in the circular corridor behind them. He stopped and looked in the direction the two people left for a while, and then quickly followed.
In this palace and pavilion, someone has obviously been here, leaving many new battle traces and puppet fragments.
As a result, Shi Mu and Yan Luo slowed down a lot in order to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Yanluo still had an indescribable familiarity with this place, and was able to avoid some restrictions that even Shi Mu could not detect with his spiritual eyes. In some attic palaces, he found some fragments of magic weapons left over from previous battles.
Although these incomplete magic weapons can no longer be used, they are all rare weapon refining materials in the outside world.
Two days later, the two passed through a garden shaded by green bamboos and came to an elegant garden.
This elegant garden is independent from other palaces. It is surrounded by four halls and forms an independent courtyard.
Standing on the outermost side is a tall gate hall, half of which has collapsed at the eaves and corners. The large plaque hangs tilted on the lintel, looking shaky.
"Cuihuan Palace." Shi Mu looked at the words on the plaque and muttered silently. (To be continued.)
