Luo Chen arrived in an instant and came to a place where the spatial frequency fluctuations were abnormal.
Here, there is also a temple, which also enshrines a statue.
But this statue is not that of the Confucian saint, but a dark, human-shaped stone that is one person tall!
The outside of the temple is very clean. Although there are towering old trees around, there is not a single fallen leaf on the ground. Obviously, this place is cleaned regularly.
After previous inspections, it was found that there was no one else nearby, and Luo Chen, who considered himself an expert and bold, walked in without any hesitation.
The closer he got to the temple in the depths, the more solemn Luo Chen's brows became.
His figure stopped when he was less than three meters away from the entrance of the temple. Previously, he had clearly used his spiritual consciousness and mental power to jointly explore and found that no one was within one mile of the temple. But at this time, he
I actually saw a lot of people at the entrance of the temple.
These people, with their backs to Luo Chen, each held three sticks of incense in their hands. They worshiped again and again before the black stone enshrined inside. Their devout appearance was no different from believers who had received the seed of faith.
They knelt there, and every time they kowtowed, a ray of faith would emerge from the top of their heads and wrap around the black stone. Soon, it would be sucked in.
And as this trace of power of faith was sucked away, there was a hint of red light in the eyes of those people, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye and soon disappeared.
Luo Chen looked outside for a while, only to feel a powerful aura coming towards this direction at a very fast speed. His expression changed slightly, and he quickly restrained his aura and hid himself.
After a while, a blue figure appeared on the bluestone slab where Luo Chen was standing before.
The person who came was wearing a green robe, holding a book hard in his hand, and his face was so gloomy that it was almost dripping with water.
He closed his eyes and felt the changes around him. After a moment, he opened his eyes in confusion.
Could it be...that I am too worried?
The person who came here was none other than the Confucian sage who lived in Qing Dynasty!
I saw him wandering outside for a while, hesitating again and again, and then walked in.
Buzz!
Luo Chen, who was hiding in the dark, clearly felt that after Qingju Confucian Sage entered the temple, his aura suddenly dropped to the bottom. In the blink of an eye, he changed from an elegant middle-aged man to a mysterious figure.
Like a haggard old man, at some point, he also had three sticks of incense in his hand. He followed behind the crowd and also prayed and worshiped!
Luo Chen looked at this scene, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and his expression began to change.
Along with the worship of Qingju Confucian Sage, the power of faith in his body suddenly became like a vast ocean, roaring from his body into the pitch-black shaped stone.
With the infusion of this power of faith, Luo Chen discovered that the black stone became more and more humanoid!
Such a weird scene, even Luochen, couldn't help but take a breath of air!
After the Confucian Saint Qingju kowtowed, he took a handful of incense ashes from the incense stand, wrapped it in a cloth, and then turned around and left the temple.
Then, a surprising scene appeared again. The originally aged Confucian Sage Qingju returned to his middle-aged appearance after leaving the temple.
Luo Chen blinked and waited until he left before walking out from the side.
Inside the temple, villagers worshiping can still be seen vaguely.
Luo Chen clapped his hands, and a ghostly black figure appeared in front of him. Although the figure was covered in black clothes, its graceful body could still be seen. It was a woman.
"Go in and take a look."
The figure moved mechanically and entered the temple obediently. Luo Chen looked outside, his expression changing from solemn to weird.
After a while, a figure stepped out and looked directly at Luo Chen. Luo Chen rubbed his chin and thought for a while. He suddenly remembered that Qingju Confucian Sage grabbed a handful of incense ash before leaving, so he quickly ordered: "
Take out a handful of incense ash."
This time, the man in black didn't move. Luo Chen looked at her strangely, raised his hand and patted her head gently: "Be good, go."
The figure turned around and came back with a handful of incense ash.
Luo Chen held the incense ash in his hand and looked at it for a while. He found that it was just an ordinary incense ash.
What is the purpose of leaving the incense ashes?
Just when Luo Chen was puzzled, the woman in black in front of him suddenly spoke mechanically: "This... this is... mixed with... ashes."
The voice was intermittent, but the words he spoke were extremely clear!
Luo Chen was greatly surprised and looked at her strangely. After a long time, he held back a sentence: "Can you speak?"
This woman was none other than Zuo Linglong, who was transformed into a puppet by the Holy Son of the Ancient Tomb Sect. She was later rescued by Luo Chen. Over the years, she has been staying by Luo Chen's side like a shadow.
This was the first time she spoke in more than a hundred years. How could Luo Chen not be surprised?
Zuo Linglong did not answer his words this time. Regarding her situation, Luo Chen has always been a little confused after so many years. This woman is a bit strange. At that time, she was clearly dead, but for some reason, the three souls in her body were...
Of the six souls, there is always one soul that never leaves the body.
Later, I asked him for help again and again.
Over the years, she has followed Luo Chen as a thug, and her body has been tempered by the thunder. Her physical strength is as strong as Luo Chen's. After so many years, she has never spoken. For this reason,
Luo Chen almost forgot her gender.
Luo Chen looked at her carefully for a while, then flipped his wrist, and a piece the size of a goose egg appeared in his palm.
As soon as the object came out, a wave of waves flashed in Zuo Linglong's empty eyes. She subconsciously stretched out her hand and took the fragment in her hand.
This fragment is not something else, it is the fragment of the Soul-Eating Reincarnation Stone that Luo Chen smashed!
This is the biggest piece of them all!
This thing has the effect of gathering and summoning souls. There is still a soul in Zuo Linglong's body, and he doesn't know if this thing has any effect on her.
After all, this is just one of the fragments of the Soul-Eating Reincarnation Stone.
"Thank...thank you."
An extremely soft voice came from Zuo Linglong's mouth. It was so soft that even Luo Chen's ears were not able to hear it.
Zuo Linglong's figure disappeared, empty as a ghost. No one except Luo Chen knew where she was hiding.
To be precise, Zuo Linglong is a dead person without any vitality. Therefore, she is breathless and can be easily ignored. Even if she does not need to hide it deliberately, as long as she does not use her eyes to see, her existence will not be discovered.
Luo Chen withdrew his thoughts and transferred all his energy to the enshrined stone. The more he looked at it, the more evil he felt.
He glanced at the incense ashes in his hand again, and Zuo Linglong said that the incense ashes were mixed with ashes, which caught his attention.
Just when he was about to enter in person to see what kind of trouble existed in the temple, a frustrated voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
Listening to this voice, it seems that he is still very angry.
Luo Chen turned around and saw the village chief of Saint Village, Zhao Quande, walking slowly towards this side on crutches.
Next to him, the person following him was none other than Zhao Gang!
His face was extremely pale, and it looked like he had suffered extremely serious internal injuries.
"You wait here, I will go and get you a handful of incense ash. You can eat it and your injuries will be healed."
Zhao Gang nodded and said nothing. He stayed outside the temple and looked at the scene inside the temple with fear.
Zhao Quande stepped into the temple, his expression unchanged. After entering the temple, his steps became obviously much brisker. Even his originally stooped waist gradually straightened up, becoming the same figure as the one he had just lived in the Confucian Sanctuary not long ago.
The difference is that this time he is not getting older, but is changing towards a younger state.
Luo Chen was stunned. What is going on?
What surprised him was still behind. Zhao Quande brought the incense ashes. Zhao Gang eagerly reached out to take it, held it in his hands, and poured every bit of it into his mouth.
It's strange to say that after he swallowed all the incense ash, his originally pale face turned rosy. A moment later, he didn't look like he was seriously injured at all?
"this……"
Thinking of the handful of incense ash that Qingju Confucian Sage took away before leaving, Luo Chen suddenly realized that he did not expect that the incense ash could have such an effect.
Holy medicine is nothing more than that, right?
This really opened his eyes!
What kind of incense ash is this? Also, what kind of bones are the ashes mixed in the incense ashes? He checked and found that they were neither human bones nor demon bones!
"Strange, this is obviously ordinary incense ash, how does it have the healing effect?"
Luo Chen sniffed the incense ash he had obtained earlier under his nose, and there was no medicinal powder or residue mixed in it.
The longer Luo Chen waited, the more strange he felt here. Everything seemed so abnormal and illogical!
The curiosity in his heart drove Luo Chen to stay.
After all, he couldn't hold back and went in to check. Except for the unknown black stone, apart from the slight pressure he felt at the beginning, there was nothing else surprising after that.
He also specially observed himself, and after entering, there was no change.
It's not like other people, who instantly grow old or instantly young.
As night fell, Luo Chen was meditating on a towering old tree outside the temple and was awakened by the sound of babies crying.
The sound came from a temple not far away. In this dark, moonless night, it was very scary. Luo Chen turned over and listened for a while. Yes, it was indeed the cry of a baby.
Luo Chen was a little confused. Where did the baby cry in the middle of the night? He had been staying here, and during this period, he did not see anyone entering the temple with a baby in his arms.
With surprise, Luo Chen entered again. This time, he clearly noticed that there was something strange in the surrounding space, and the frequency of fluctuations was very abnormal.
Following this voice, Luo Chen came to the enshrined human-shaped stone, from which the voice came!
Luo Chen was greatly surprised and turned on the special pupil clairvoyance, only to find that his invincible special pupil actually failed this time!
Pupil light cannot penetrate and is blocked out!
Luo Chen blinked and walked around the stone. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the stone was very extraordinary. He always felt that leaving this thing here was not a good thing, so he didn't think much about it and simply left the stone.
The stone was stolen.
What Luo Chen didn't know was that just because of his move, he directly stirred up a hornet's nest!
Not long after he left, the entire Saint Village was turned to the ground by a wave of raging anger!
Not only that, but later on, the entire ninth heaven was also destroyed by a mysterious powerful man! Of course, this is a story for later, so I won’t mention it for now. (To be continued)
