Xia Haoran dropped his sword, walked to the dragon bone, and shook his head helplessly. What kind of outrageous thing did this giant dragon do in the past, to be trapped here with such a powerful chain...
Not to mention anything else, just by looking at these four cold chains, you can roughly guess how powerful the dragon was in its heyday!
However, endless years have passed now, and the soul of this giant dragon has long since disappeared. In addition, it has been trapped by cold iron for thousands of years. Even the soul cannot escape from the body and can only be locked by the cold iron.
Dissipated bit by bit in the long river of time...
"Vicious and vicious!"
Xia Haoran touched his nose and sighed, while shaking his head and muttering to himself: "I never thought that even the real 'true dragon' would be suppressed here. No wonder this secret realm is so desolate and lifeless.
Word."
From what he saw along the way, although there were mountains, rivers, and alpine vegetation in the entire small world, generally speaking, there were no towering peaks or towering trees. The peak he was standing on now belonged to the entire small world.
center, but its height is only just over a thousand meters.
Therefore, according to Xia Haoran's inference, when this true dragon was suppressed by a strong human being, there must have been an extremely fierce and thrilling battle in this secret space, so that all the spiritual energy in the entire secret realm was drained.
Moreover, everything in the entire secret area was hit, damaged, and shattered into pieces...
Yang is born from the cathode, and yin is born from the anode. The extremes of things must be reversed, which is the way of heaven and earth.
From this, we can be sure that the vegetation and small life that we see now obviously gradually recovered and grew after the war, and it took who knows how many years.
It's no wonder that there are many seals at the entrance to the passage outside this secret realm. The remains of a real dragon were suppressed here. This can't help but shock people.
After all, this is a real dragon corpse. Even if the flesh and blood has been melted away, such a huge dragon bone, especially the dragon marrow in the dragon bone, there may be dragon beads, and even those pure dragon energy... If placed in the world of cultivation,
Even people from the Mahayana period would come here to snatch it!
Taking a deep breath, Xia Haoran finally moved his eyes away from the huge skeleton. To be honest, what caught his eyes at this moment was not only the huge real dragon skeleton, but also the four powerful bones.
The chains and the huge golden platform at your feet are rare treasures for cultivators.
Xia Haoran wanted to put all these things into the storage ring, but he should not be too greedy. If he really did that, although he would be comfortable, the impression of him would be reduced a lot.
Of course, this does not mean that Xia Haoran is a benevolent woman with a small belly and chicken intestines. To put it in his words, even if you are rich and can rival the country, even if your martial arts skills are all over the world, you are still an authentic Chinese person.
So Xia Haoran put aside his first priority and had to turn his attention to those chains. The skeleton of the real dragon was left to the relevant departments for research. However, these chains will make it easier for me.
You must know that Wannian Cold Iron has strong spirituality and can absorb all kinds of attacks, so it was chosen to trap this real dragon!
But just when Xia Haoran was about to step towards the center of the platform, he seemed to suddenly think of something and suddenly retracted his steps forward.
"No matter whether you want to get this real dragon skeleton or not, once you step close to it, you will directly face an extremely terrifying danger, because no one knows whether there are any remnants of this dragon skeleton."
For such a huge dragon skeleton, its strength during its lifetime must have been earth-shattering and powerful. Although endless years have passed, as a cultivator, Xia Haoran knows some powerful people with profound skills.
They will preserve their souls through secret methods, hoping that one day they can break out of their cocoons and be reborn to create greater glory.
This kind of thing is actually not uncommon in the world of cultivation.
Therefore, Xia Haoran hesitated.
If the facts are as he guessed, then, with his cultivation at the peak of the late Jindan period, there is always the possibility of catastrophe in front of such a strong person. Even if the other party only has a trace of residual soul left, he can still do it.
Easily crush yourself into pieces...
"what to do?"
Xia Haoran thought calmly in his heart. He stared at the huge real dragon skeleton in front of him and his eyes narrowed slightly.
With such a dragon carcass in front of you, who can not be moved?
It's just that Xia Haoran forcibly suppressed his inner excitement, so his mood swings were not so obvious.
"What the hell!"
After hesitating for a few minutes, Xia Haoran gritted his teeth and said: "Wealth can be found in danger! Even if the real dragon still has a trace of its soul remaining, after these long years, even the real dragon's
The flesh and blood have been eroded by the years, and similarly, the power in the remnant soul should have been exhausted."
After all, only a trace of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has been restored in this secret realm. In addition, the real dragon is trapped here and cannot get any power replenishment. After a long period of consumption, if there is still a huge amount of energy left,
Power, that's the weird thing.
"No matter, let's gamble!"
Thinking of this, Xia Haoran immediately sat down cross-legged, worked hard to activate the mental skills in his body, and at the same time released his spiritual consciousness, and began to cautiously approach and detect the huge skeleton.
The moment he just revealed his spiritual consciousness, Xia Haoran opened his eyes suddenly, and then stood up suddenly. Just now, when he had just released his spiritual consciousness and was about to cover the entire skeleton, he didn't expect,
His consciousness actually entered a gray, lifeless space!
Formation!
See the formation again!
Xia Haoran also didn't expect that the four thick and strong chains protruding around the platform not only had the effect of trapping people; at the same time, these four chains actually used the platform as the center of the formation to form a huge trapping array - four
Like a big formation.
Xia Haoran saw the magic of the formation at a glance.
The Four Elephant Formation is one of the top emperor-level formations. Xia Haoran has studied the formation very hard. Although he can recognize it at a glance, with his current strength and understanding of the formation, if he wants to crack this emperor-level formation, he must
It's absolutely wishful thinking.
The Tao of Formation is ever-changing, broad and profound. However, it never changes away from its foundation, and never changes away from its origin.
As what people usually say, "Two Yis, Three Talents, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Six Integrations, Seven Stars, Eight Trigrams, Nine Palaces and Ten Jue" are the basis of formations, and are the basis of some formations; in other words, all formations are based on these formations.
It is formed on the basis of integration. Therefore, this basic formation is also called the emperor-level formation.
Xia Haoran had a grimace on his face, not to mention how sad he felt.
Before, when he saw the real dragon skeleton in front of him and the four powerful chains, he clearly had desires in his heart but forcibly warned himself that he should not be too greedy. But now, he has given up the basics and followed the second, and in the end he can't even get a hair out of it.
.
If you want to collect those chains and the true dragon bones, the first step is to break this emperor-level formation. But with Xia Haoran's current level of skill, it is delusional to forcefully break the formation. He will not fight at all.
Without breaking the protective power of the Four Elephants Formation; if he takes the initiative to break the formation, his understanding of the formation is still not up to that level.
There is clearly a treasure in front of him, and it is a very important treasure, but he can only wait and watch. This is the first time Xia Haoran has felt like this since he got the adventure.
Strength, strength, or not enough strength!
Xia Haoran couldn't help but raise his head and sigh, with tears streaming down his face.
In fact, it was only now that he realized that perhaps what he saw in front of him was not necessarily real. Under the blockade of the four-image formation, the real dragon he saw now might just be a manifestation of the formation.
It's just a reflection. The real dragon is bigger and more amazing than what you see now...
Although he longs for strength, Xia Haoran knows that when he takes the top masters in the world of cultivation, the gap is not even a tiny bit. He is only at the peak of the late Jindan stage, and even if he breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage, he still doesn't know how long it will take, because,
Opportunities don't just happen.
But soon, Xia Haoran no longer frowned, but relaxed. This trip to Shennongjia was a good opportunity. Although his cultivation level did not increase much, his understanding of the Tao has made earth-shaking changes. And he also discovered that
Treasure, although I didn't get it in the end.
Xia Haoran knew that once he left the secret realm and returned to the outside world, the things here would no longer belong to him. However, now he has figured it out. What I gain is my luck, and what I lose is my life.
What's more, the aura of heaven and earth here is obviously not comparable to the secret spaces he has mastered; he just looked at the treasures of heaven, materials and earth here, and found that the oldest among them is only a mere thousand years old, let alone
Compared.
Therefore, Xia Haoran looked around again, then lost interest, and returned with his sword all the way. Even affected by his mood just now, he was too lazy to pick some thousand-year-old medicinal materials he met along the way, because these things,
He has neither shortage nor need for the time being.
During this trip to the secret realm, Xia Haoran made his next arrangements clearer.
First of all, he is to find a place commonly known as the "Dongtian Blessed Land" to upgrade his cultivation to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible. You know, he has stayed in this state for a long time. This exploration of the secret realm allowed him to give birth to a baby for the first time.
He felt a deep sense of powerlessness. This was the first time he had felt this way since he started practicing.
In addition, he has to speed up the pace of exploration and advancement. After experiencing a small setback, Xia Haoran is convinced that this is by no means the first time! Therefore, he naturally cannot be as leisurely as before. His studies in school are
One aspect, but it should not be a constraint or fetter for your own progress.
What's more, Xia Haoran understands in his heart that people like him go to college just to fulfill a childhood dream and a dream of his parents. He doesn't expect to study hard and make progress every day so that he can find a job after graduation.
A good job to support the family...
Deep in Shennongjia.
When Xia Haoran soared into the sky from the sinkhole and returned to the outside world, it was already two days later.
Even Xia Haoran didn't know, because there was no news from him in the past few days and there was no signal on his mobile phone. Many people outside were already frantic, thinking that something had happened to him.
