Seeing this, Xia Haoran finally understood why Mengshan had such confidence before.
Only by cracking the forbidden rune on the stone wall can we reach the true ancestral land where the 'holy water' is sealed. But it is a pity that except for Xia Haoran, no one in the world is familiar with this formation talisman.
.
After a while, the group passed through the cracks in the rocks and successfully arrived at the dark cave at the end of the passage. Along the way, there were no dangerous mechanisms in the passage. After all, this was their ancestral land, not a tomb.
In this place, we need to always be on guard against tomb robbers, so we set up those mechanisms and the like.
For ordinary people, this stone crevice is not something ordinary people can find; what's more, this is a forbidden area in the ancient village, guarded and protected by thousands of people in the ethnic group. It is impossible for outsiders to find this place, let alone
Don't say you're coming in.
Xia Haoran made a magic spell and cast a lighting spell. Suddenly, the huge cave was bright. In fact, this was just to take care of Mengshan and others around him. Otherwise, for Xia Haoran, this little darkness in front of him would be very harmful to him.
There is no impact at all.
It is said that the caster is unintentional and the bystanders are intentional, but Xia Haoran's inadvertent move made the faces of the Mengshan people next to him suddenly change drastically, as if they had seen a ghost.
There is shock, envy, respect, but most of all, awe!
"Senior is truly a god!"
After a long time, Meng Shan came back to his senses and bowed to Xia Haoran again and said respectfully.
Xia Haoran waved his hand and said with a smile: "You're welcome, this is just a small magic skill that cannot be put on the table. All methods have the same origin, whether it is practicing witchcraft or other mental methods, as long as you practice it with your heart
, you can easily do this when you reach a certain level.”
"Yes, thank you for your teachings, senior!" Mengshan and the others responded seriously.
Xia Haoran nodded slightly, but his gaze always stayed on the stone wall on the left side of the cave. To be precise, it was locked on the dense and strange formations and seals.
Xia Haoran has now successfully practiced "Formation Explanation" to the seventh level, and is about to enter the eighth level. His formation level may not be comparable to those of the formation masters, but he must understand what he is seeing.
This simple formation is more than enough.
"The bloodline formation is connected to one's life and bloodline, and it is contrary to nature. And every time it is turned on, the lifespan of the person setting up the formation will be reduced, and the lifespan will burn out very quickly."
Xia Haoran turned around and glanced at Mengshan and others, and said lightly: "It seems that your ancestor is not a simple person! In order to leave a trace of hope and blessings to future generations, he is willing to sacrifice himself to help you.
"
Ignoring the dumbfounded looks of Meng Shan and others around him, Xia Haoran continued: "As the years go by, the people who set up the formation have long passed away. If I am not mistaken, you younger generations will open the ancestral land every time
Every time, the rune patterns need to be cast with the blood of the tribe, right?"
In fact, Xia Haoran did not finish his words.
He looked through the inherited memories in his mind and learned that the rune pattern carved on the stone wall in front of him was indeed an extremely rare bloodline formation. Moreover, there was no way to crack the bloodline formation, and he could only use the skills of the descendants of the clan.
The eyes of the formation are cast with blood, and activated with the power of blood.
As for outsiders, even Xia Haoran who is now at the peak of the early stage of Nascent Soul, it is impossible to break it with strength. After all, the only way to break this kind of formation is blood.
In addition, in the world of cultivation, bloodline formations like this are not only extremely rare, but are also a very evil formation!
The reason why it is called evil is because in order to successfully deploy the bloodline formation, a large amount of blood essence of the tribe is needed to refine the formation eyes.
Even in the world of cultivation, there are very few families that can sacrifice so many clan members at once to set up a bloodline formation. Unless the family has reached a real life-and-death situation, and in order to give future generations a chance to make a comeback, they will arrange a bloodline formation.
Come to protect the important resources of the family!
Therefore, wherever a bloodline formation is deployed, there will definitely be a shocking treasure, also called a clan treasure!
Seriously!
Even Xia Haoran never expected that the bloodline formation that only existed in legends even in the world of cultivation would be encountered by him in this alien continent.
However, he soon calmed down. There are countless strange things in the world, not to mention that bloodline formations are not only arranged by cultivators.
"I didn't expect Senior Xia to be involved in the art of battle." Meng Shan walked directly to the stone wall on the left side of the cave, then bit his index finger and sprinkled a drop of blood accurately on the pattern.
Under the gaze of Xia Haoran and others, every drop of blood was absorbed by the rune pattern on the stone wall at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Buzz!"
With a flash of deep blood, a dark drama, the dark blood-colored rune pattern lit up.
In an instant, a layer of illusory ripples suddenly appeared on the stone wall. As the brightness of the blood-colored rune pattern became more and more intense, the illusory ripples on the stone wall became more intense.
In just the blink of an eye, those ripples turned into a deep and strange whirlpool, quickly twisting the entire stone wall on the left side of the cave.
After a few breaths of time, a deep portal with a hint of simplicity, desolation, and roughness emerged from the whirlpool out of thin air. There were no unnecessary decorations on this portal, but only an ancient, vicissitudes of life,
And the rough spots eroded by time...
Seeing this scene, Meng Shan turned around and said to Xia Haoran: "Senior, inside this portal is the true ancestral land of our ethnic group!"
Xia Haoran nodded lightly and said with emotion: "It seems that the ancestor of the noble must be an extraordinary being. Otherwise, it would be impossible to leave you such a secret and special ancestral land sealed by the bloodline formation.
"
Although Xia Haoran didn't know the rune pattern on the stone wall, there was no other way to unlock this strange bloodline forbidden method except using the bloodline's introduction.
As for violent cracking, it is even more impossible. Because this evil formation like a curse, if it is not inspired by the power of the blood of the descendants, it will automatically explode with the violent cracking.
Hearing Xia Haoran's emotion, Mengshan said with a bitter look on his face: "Senior is right, our ancestors have a long history indeed! It's just that over the years, with the loss of the inherited skills of the ethnic group and the changes in the environment in the Age of Dharma Ending,
We, the younger generations, are no longer as good as the previous generation."
"Well……"
Xia Haoran was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't help but look at Mengshan a few more times. After all, with such an ancestral land, how could there be a lack of inheritance?
However, Meng Shan beside him did not mean to explain, but said: "Senior, let's go in now. Otherwise, the door will be closed after a while and it will have to be reopened."
"good!"
Xia Haoran responded and followed Mengshan and others into the portal one after another. At the same time, his spiritual consciousness came out quietly, and he had a panoramic view of the situation behind the portal in an instant...
At this time, what appeared in front of Xia Haoran's eyes was a huge cave that was wide and full of shining stalactites!
There is nothing strange in the heart of the mountain. Apart from the shining stalactites, there are very ancient murals carved on the stone walls around the cave. Judging from the scenes depicted on those murals, it seems that
Still in the primitive tribal period.
Most of the murals depict battle scenes, including battles with people and battles with various huge monsters or monsters.
The figures in the murals are also extremely large, just like giants holding up the sky. Their bodies are covered with rough animal skins, and their muscles are strong and strong. They look like rocks and are full of beauty, giving people a sense of beauty.
A rough, wild, primitive atmosphere...
Could it be that these sky-holding giants are the people of the Wu clan that Mengshan mentioned before?
Xia Haoran used his spiritual consciousness to look at the pictures on the stone walls around the cave. These are ancient murals from an unknown number of years ago. Now it is difficult to determine how authentic the scenes depicted in them are, and how much of them are exaggerations.
But what is certain is that, judging from the information revealed by these ancient murals, the origin and inheritance of this ancient village in Xijiang are definitely not trivial!
In addition to the murals, there is a pool in the center of the cave. The pool is neither big nor small. It looks like it was built artificially, but it also seems to be natural. There are bubbles in the pool from time to time, which indicates that there is living water flowing.
Whether such a pool is artificially built or natural, it actually doesn't matter. It seems that it is just an ordinary pool.
Xia Haoran stared at this ordinary-looking pool for a few seconds, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently.
What the hell!
Could this be the ‘holy water’ that Mengshan and others talk about?
Originally, Xia Haoran despised the idea of 'holy water', perhaps because of his subconscious dislike of Western religious culture on earth. Now when he saw the pool in front of him with his own eyes, he couldn't help but curse in his heart, MMP.
,It’s terrible to be uneducated...
In fact, there is no "holy water" in this pool, but a very expensive and rare spiritual spring in the world of cultivation. Judging from the density and the aura it emits, it is almost the same as the "holy water" in Xia Haoran's hometown of Xiaobai.
The spiritual spring found in the "cave" is about the same.
Meng Shan and others beside him did not notice the change in Xia Haoran's expression, and said: "Senior Xia, this is our ancestral land. And the pool in front of us is where our clan's 'holy water' is."
.”
"This is why I didn't explain it to my seniors outside just now." After a slight pause, Meng Shan continued: "Although our clan's ancestral land is well preserved, there are no relevant documents or other items inside.
What we see in the ancestral land is only what we see at the moment."
"The cultivation methods of our tribe have been passed down orally from generation to generation. Since then, it is inevitable that some accidents and uncontrollable phenomena will occur. To this day, our tribe's cultivation is almost based on feeling the stones.
River, because we no longer have any inheritance!"
