There was a dead silence in the cave, which made Ye Yinfeng feel numb in his heart, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go down. The deeper he went inside, the darker he became. A nameless depression suddenly came up, and the whistling wind came straight from him.
The inside was pouring out, and he blew slowly down, making him shiver.
The fat man Li Xiaoyao had disappeared a long time ago, and even his footsteps could not be heard. He probably had left him alone a long time ago and ran quickly to find his treasure.
Ye Yinfeng hated the fat man so much that he gritted his teeth and couldn't help scolding him secretly. Fortunately, the stone steps under his feet were not slippery, so there was no danger for him in this dark cave. But inside the cave, there was no danger.
There were no traces of other animals. Although the stone steps under his feet were a little bumpy, there were no stumbling blocks. Otherwise, he would have been knocked down many times.
He didn't know how long he had been walking, let alone how far he had walked from the entrance of the cave. Time and space seemed to have no trace here. The silent cave was like a giant ethereal melting vessel. Apart from the sound of the wind blowing against his face,
All that's left is the sound of his own footsteps slowly stepping down.
Ye Yinfeng held his breath while concentrating, and the true energy was flowing throughout his body, and his senses were greatly improved by the movement of this true energy. He was always paying attention to everything around him to prevent unexpected accidents.
A nervous heart and full concentration caused dense beads of sweat to form in his palms, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Although he was blown by the cold wind blowing in his face, it made him feel uncomfortable.
He felt waves of coldness seeping into his heart, but he felt that as he went deeper, the energy in his body seemed to boil, like balls of burning fire.
Such a contradictory state of mind made him feel puzzled. He wanted to ask the fat man, but he had already lost sight of him, so he had no choice but to give up and continue walking down slowly.
This cave is not generally deep, but it still goes down along the stone steps. Where does the stone steps in this cave lead to? Ye Yinfeng is very confused. This stone step path is not spacious.
There are traces of chiseling left on the left, right and top, which shows that the amount of work involved is not ordinary.
But what makes Ye Yinfeng even more strange is who built the bottomless cave. Could it be Baopuzi? But this conclusion was immediately rejected by him. He heard Li Xiaoyao say that Baopuzi
Zi only stayed in Sanqing Mountain for a period of time, and he mainly made alchemy in Sanqing Mountain, and he simply did not have the energy to build such a huge cave.
While he was thinking about various speculations about this cave, he carefully and slowly descended while holding on to the stone wall.
In the dark and cold cave, Ye Yinfeng walked cautiously, listening to the sound of his heartbeat and the rustling footsteps under his feet, and the whistling wind in his ears.
Ahead, a faint light suddenly appeared before his eyes. The long-lost light finally appeared. Although it was a weak light, it was like a guiding light, instantly warming his whole body.
Finally, after walking down the winding stone steps, there is another stone door ahead. The faint light comes from that stone door. It is still the same stone door that requires people to bend down to enter.
After walking into the stone door, Ye Yinfeng felt relaxed all over his body. This was a spacious stone room with several bronze mirrors around it. There was a faint beam of light shining into the stone room from above. That weak light
The light shines on one bronze mirror, and then reflects from this bronze mirror to another bronze mirror. Such cyclic reflections make the stone chamber a lot brighter.
Ye Yinfeng looked at the spacious stone room while looking for the figure of the fat man. To his surprise, he searched the whole stone room but did not look at Li Xiaoyao. Everything he saw except that
Several bronze mirrors reflected beams of light, and there was nothing else on the dark stone wall. No trace of the fat man was found at all.
Li Xiaoyao seemed to have disappeared from here, and the end of the stone steps was the stone chamber. There was no other place. He glanced around again with doubtful eyes and found that there were a total of seven bronze mirrors in the stone chamber. They were arranged separately.
The directions are inconsistent at different locations, but surprisingly, each bronze mirror can reflect the incoming light beams in every corner of the stone chamber.
There was no certain pattern in the placement of the seven-sided copper. Ye Yinfeng thought hard and couldn't think of a reason. When he followed the light beams that hit various parts of the stone wall, he discovered some strange situations.
The stone wall where each beam of light shines is different from other stone walls. The rock is obviously slightly lighter in color than other rocks, and the rock where the beam of light shines is also engraved with some strange runes. Those strange runes
The pattern seems to be some fonts, but these fonts are not the fonts currently used.
Ye Yinfeng came to a rock and looked at the strange runes, but he couldn't figure out what they meant. There were two to three strange runes where every beam of light shone, and the fonts seemed to be relatively similar.
Ancient writing. Judging from the carved traces, these characters are at least a thousand years old, but even if they are written thousands of years ago, Ye Yinfeng should still be able to recognize them based on his experience.
But at this time, these strange character patterns did not seem to be the characters he was familiar with. Each character was different, seven in total. Although he did not recognize these character patterns, he could feel that some of his characters were different.
As if a heartstring has been touched, every character pattern seems to contain some kind of special power.
The Taiqing Qi in his body started to move involuntarily. Every time he reached a character pattern, the Taiqing Qi in his body moved very violently, but the intensity was not consistent in each place. These character patterns seemed to be consistent with
The Taiqing Qi in his body has a strange connection and can produce subtle resonances.
But there were no energy fluctuations in these character patterns, and what allowed the Taiqing Qi in his body to move independently was every stroke and every stroke of the character patterns. This was the first time he encountered such a strange situation.
, but he was at a loss what to do and couldn't figure it out at all.
If the fat man Li Xiaoyao was here, maybe he might know the secret, but there was no trace of the fat man in this spacious stone room with a panoramic view. This made Ye Yinfeng feel bitter, and
There was no trace of the treasure that fat man Li Xiaoyao mentioned.
There was only this stone room at the end of the stone steps, and there was no other place. Could it be that the fat man could not escape from the earth? Ye Yinfeng, who was full of doubts, couldn't help but carefully observe the stone room again.
There is nothing else in the stone chamber except the seven bronze mirrors, and the beam of light that penetrates the stone chamber comes from the center of the top of the stone chamber. It is just a mirror the size of a bowl.
He didn't know what was beyond the small hole as big as the mouth of a bowl. Unless the fat man turned into a mouse and could get out of the small hole as big as the mouth of a bowl, he wouldn't be able to get out of the hole.
Maybe he disappeared in this stone room.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Ye Yinfeng's mind, and two words emerged in his mind - mechanism. When he thought of these two words, he instinctively trembled all over, because the experience in the Zhang family in Raozhou left a deep impression on him.
Unforgettable, he will be very afraid of these two words in this life.
In fact, he had thought of this level for a long time, but his instinctive reaction made him ignore it. Only with this possibility would Li Xiaoyao disappear into this stone room. Thinking of this, he began to have clues in his mind, and there were many things going on here.
I was spinning around in the stone chamber and observing carefully, hoping to find the key to the mechanism as soon as possible.
He walked around the stone room several times but found nothing suspicious. In his anxiety, he secretly cursed the fat man several times. It was also his fault that Li Xiaoyao didn't explain it clearly to him before disappearing, otherwise
I will go back the same way.
After entering the treasure mountain, how could he return empty-handed? Ye Yinfeng suppressed his emotions and urged himself to slowly regain his calm. Since there is a mechanism here, he can find the key part to open it.
The Taiqing Qi in his body was churning endlessly, which made him feel inexplicably upset. When he walked next to a character, that group of character patterns happened to be the one that made his Taiqing Qi move most violently.
A violent upset suddenly rushed into his mind, making him unable to control it at all.
The Taiqing Qi in his whole body suddenly became manic. His whole body was filled with the turbulent Qi, and the blood vessels in his body seemed to burst. This feeling was like the feeling of being burned by fire, hot and intense.
pain.
Feeling the unconcealable burning pain all over his body, Ye Yinfeng could not control the violent flow of true energy, causing his hands to wave involuntarily. But he had no idea that his hands were waving wildly.
That weird character pattern.
Without realizing it, he was suddenly attracted by a powerful attraction. The attraction was like a powerful magnet meeting a small piece of iron, making him unable to move even half a minute. And it was the person who attracted his body.
Weird character patterns.
A "boom" sound came from Ye Yinfeng's mind. His body was sucked into a vortex uncontrollably, and his eyes were dark. And his body was sucked in by the vortex-like attraction, and he kept beating.
A splitting pain of dizziness entered his mind, and a moment later he was stunned by the whirlpool of attraction.
Soon, Ye Yinfeng felt that his body was thrown heavily to the ground, and a huge pain in his bones woke him up from the dizziness. He opened his eyes and felt a strong dizzy feeling like the world was spinning.
It was still spinning in his brain, and he couldn't help but shake his head in confusion.
After the dizzy spell slowly subsided, he regained his consciousness, and then he raised his head and looked around. At the same time, he reached out and touched the area where the severe pain was coming from his bones, and found that it was only a minor injury and he did not fall.
I feel relieved now that I have broken my bones. Otherwise, if I haven't found the treasure yet and my bones are broken, wouldn't it be a huge loss?
After cursing the fat man secretly in his heart, he also climbed up from the ground. The huge pain all over his body made him grit his teeth and crack his mouth.
This is still a stone room. A small luminous bead above illuminates the stone room brightly. It is a stone room no more than two feet square. There are three bookshelves on three sides of the stone room. The bookshelves are not very big, only three floors.
, there is also a stone wall that is empty.
Ye Yinfeng walked towards the bookshelf closest to him and picked up the book on the shelf. The binding year of the book seemed to be relatively old, and the yellow paper still had a musty smell. He opened it casually.
I started reading a worn-out book.
It was just a book introducing Taoism, introducing the origin of Taoism and some Taoist celebrities. Ye Yinfeng read all the books in this row, and at the same time, he also had a new understanding of Taoism. It's just that this kind of book
The book box was of no great use to him, and he just glanced at it like a quick glance.
As for the books on the other row of bookshelves, they are all Taoist alchemy techniques. According to legend, during the pre-Qin period, a Taoist ancestor refined the elixir of life, which established the status of Taoist alchemy. Ye Yinfeng just smiled at this,
He didn't take it seriously. What he was looking for was a path to martial arts. Immortality was just a passing thought to him. The path to alchemy was not what he sought.
After reading the books on the two bookshelves, he was full of hope for the last bookshelf, hoping that it was the martial arts manual of a certain Taoist ancestor, otherwise the hardship he had gone through to get here would not have been in vain.
He walked towards the last bookshelf full of hope. When he saw it, the rows of book boxes seemed to be transformed into profound martial arts and infinitely powerful swordsmanship.
Overjoyed, he picked up a yellowed book. The pages of the book were about to turn into dust. With a little force, the book would immediately turn into dust and scatter into the stone room.
.
What made him feel depressed was that the font used in this shabby old book was something he didn't recognize. He only recognized the three big characters "Sword Controlling" on the cover of the whole book, but the content of the book was written in some fonts.
It was written in strange characters. He felt that the characters looked familiar. Suddenly, he thought that the characters he saw in the stone room at the end of the stone steps were very similar to the characters in this book. But he felt that the content should not be
Likewise, he quickly flipped through the book and found that he didn't recognize any of the words in it. It's only when the book is used that it becomes less useful, he couldn't help but sigh.
Looking at the three big words "Sword Controlling" on the cover, he imagined a scene of flying with a sword and killing enemies thousands of miles away. However, he didn't know a single word of the content in the book, let alone a word of it.
Practice this so-called sword-controlling technique.
Since he didn't recognize the characters in the book, he left the stone room and went outside to find someone who could recognize the characters. He immediately put the book into his arms. Then he picked up another one.
After reading the book carefully, I found that although the books here were all about internal skills and mental methods, none of them were comparable to his "Tai Qing Jue", and I couldn't help but feel despair.
He didn't want to give up just yet, so he picked up the books one by one and started to read them carefully.
He didn't know how much time had passed, and he didn't know how many books he had read. He just felt that his time here seemed to be very long, and he had no concept of time.
He flipped through all the books on the entire bookshelf, including the secrets of swordsmanship, boxing skills, sword skills, and some internal skills and mental techniques of other sects. This bookshelf brought together the martial arts skills of various sects in the martial arts world, but
There is no martial arts secret that he can appreciate.
