Chapter 178: Wanling Mountain
The exit of the Ten Thousand Bones Cave is at the other end of the cave, blocked by the illusion, from the outside, there is an inconspicuous stone wall, even if Xia Mu uses his divine mind to investigate, he can't find anything abnormal, until he sees a butterfly flying out of the stone wall, and then his body moves through the stone wall.
And the four of Mu Qingxian also followed behind Xia Mu without saying a word, passing through the stone wall.
At the other end of the stone wall is a temple-like place, and there is a bluestone staircase outside, which leads diagonally upward, and a white light can be seen flashing at the end of the bluestone staircase in the distance.
This made Xia Mu even more sure that this Ten Thousand Bones Cave should have been a top-grade spirit stone vein mined by the Ancient Immortal Dynasty, and it could also explain why there were so many branches and traces of man-made mining in the Ten Thousand Bones Cave.
The other four were not much surprised, and the five of them flew up the bluestone steps at a high speed, and soon flew out of the passage and into the outside world.
As far as the eye could see, the clouds and mist were ethereal, the mountain wind was howling, and the exit of the passage was actually located halfway up the mountainside, which shocked the hearts of the five people who had just come out of the passage.
Looking down from this halfway up the mountain, small dots are scattered below, and even with the eyes of five people, it is impossible to tell whether these dots are ancient buildings or some other mountains and lakes.
Sweeping to the side, the surprise on everyone's faces became more and more intense, and the place where they could see was a mountain wall with no end in sight, and their eyes looked up along the mountain wall, and several people found that the sky was black.
In this black sky, there are hanging stars, emitting a soft light, illuminating this small world.
The five of them carefully examined their surroundings, but they didn't gain anything except the endless mountain wall and the starry sky behind them.
After some discussion, the five of them decided to split up to see if they could see where this place came from.
Soon, the five of them turned into five streamers and flew in five directions.
After flying a distance of thousands of zhang, Xia Mu finally flew out of the smooth mirror-like mountain wall, but after a little look, a trace of surprise appeared on his face, and then he hurriedly flew back with the light of escape, and flew nearby for most of the day before flying back to the original place.
But his face was full of surprise that could not be concealed.
How to say it, only one 'big' word appeared in Xia Mu's mind.
Speaking of which, Xia Mu has seen a lot of various famous mountains and rivers, and the largest one is probably the Liangjie Mountain at the junction of Dongzhou and Tianhuo Prefecture.
The mountains of the two realms are so big that they occupy a radius of thousands of miles, but compared to the ancient mountains in front of them now, they are like a small thing, and the seemingly boundless mountain wall behind them actually only occupies an insignificant part of this mountain.
But these alone couldn't make Xia Mu so shocked, what made him frightened was that such a large ancient giant mountain was still in a huge forbidden air prohibition. Of course, this ban is not 100% forbidden, but after a few hundred meters above the ground, it will no longer be able to continue to climb upward, and in some special places, this height will change.
Xia Mu estimated that it may have been during the catastrophe of the collapse of the Starry Sky Immortal Dynasty, and the ban on this mountain had been destroyed, resulting in the inadequacy of the ban covering the entire mountain.
But even so, the mutilated ban on the air is terrible enough, and it has not lost its effectiveness because it has been destroyed, and it is still operating on its own.
With such a big stroke, Xia Mu was sure that this was definitely from the hands of the Eternal Saint, and to lay down such a large-scale ban on the sky, it was impossible to accomplish it with an Eternal Saint alone. Of course, it is also possible that an extremely powerful Eternal Saint has set it up.
Xia Mu didn't know much about the powerhouses of this level, and he couldn't judge how terrifying his methods were.
As the first person to return, Xia Mu stayed in place for about a stick of incense, and only then did a light appear in the sky in the distance, and quickly fell to Xia Mu's side, it was Mu Qingxian.
"You guy, you're coming back pretty fast. Probably didn't expect that someone would return one step ahead of him, Mu Qingxian looked at Xia Mu in surprise.
"There's no way if I don't come back early, I don't know much about the situation in this Immortal Dynasty ruins, so I will naturally come back after going out for a few turns. Xia Mu spread his hands, and then asked with a condensed expression: "Sister Mu, have you really had a holiday with that Jin Tianci, how can I not see that he has any hostility towards you." ”
"Do you still think that he and that Li Dequan seem to get along very well?" Mu Qingxian did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically.
Seeing that Xia Mu was silent, she said in a slightly deep tone: "If you really have this kind of thought, then I can only say that you are not far from death." ”
"What do you mean by this?" Xia Mu knew that he still had very little experience in dealing with people, so he hurriedly asked for advice humbly.
"You don't have systematic killer training, and you don't understand that in order to be a powerful killer, it's not enough to be strong. Mu Qingxian said meaningfully: "A truly powerful killer is not only powerful on the outside, but also extremely terrifying on the inside, what I mean here is to play with people's hearts, for example, if you assassinate the target, there are many ways, you can choose to fight head-on, or you can lurk in the dark, waiting for the opportunity to move, in addition, you can also approach the target openly, and after gaining the trust of the other party, you are looking for a flaw to kill the target." ”
"I said that, do you understand?" Mu Qingxian looked at Xia Mu and said slowly.
"You mean that Jin Tianci and Li Dequan's previous performances were all disguised, and the purpose was to let me down my guard?" Xia Mu said with a move in his heart.
"You're not too stupid. Mu Qingxian's tone paused slightly, and then continued: "I just believed in Jin Tianci too much at the beginning, so I almost fell in touch with his Dao, if it weren't for the fact that I had a talisman treasure on my body, I'm afraid this hypocrite would have succeeded in his conspiracy." ”
Hearing this, Xia Mu's mouth opened, and just wanted to continue to say something, his heart suddenly moved, and he turned his head to look at the sky, only to see Jin Tianci and Li Dequan returning one after the other, and then the four of them waited in place for a while, and it didn't take long for Qiu Shuixian to return.
"How about it, have you Daoist friends seen the origin of this ancient mountain?" Xia Mu glanced at Mu Qingxian without a trace, and asked.
He had also asked Mu Qingxian before, but the latter didn't know much about the Starry Sky Immortal Dynasty, and he didn't know where the few people were now.
"If my prediction is correct, this mountain should be the ancient famous Wanling Mountain, and the Starry Sky Immortal Hall should be on this mountain. At this moment, Qiu Shuixian said with a blink of his eyes.
"Oh, it seems that Qiu Daoyou seems to know something, and he wants to give him advice. Hearing this, Jin Tianci asked curiously, he didn't seem to know much about the ruins of the Starry Sky Immortal Dynasty.
And in this process, Xia Mu has been observing Jin Tianci and Li Dequan without a trace, but he didn't find anything unusual about the two, so he can only say that these two people are really well disguised.
Of course, it is also possible that Mu Qingxian deliberately misled, but this possibility is not high.
"Jin Daoyou's words are serious, I have only been fortunate enough to see some records about the Starry Sky Immortal Dynasty, so I know a little about the situation. Qiu Shuixian first said this humbly, and then changed his words:
"It is rumored that this Ten Thousand Spirits Mountain was detained by the Starry Sky Immortal Lord of the Starry Sky Immortal Dynasty from the chaos and refined by the method of refining weapons, with incredible power, but I took a closer look at it before, and found that this mountain seems to have suffered a heavy blow in the catastrophe of the year, and the power has been greatly reduced, which allows us to take off a hundred meters high, otherwise if it is placed in its heyday, I am afraid that with our cultivation, we can only walk on foot. ”
"Perhaps, we don't know what happened here in ancient times, but as far as the results are concerned, we finally got here through that spatial node. However, it doesn't matter anymore, the question now is how we get to the Starry Sky Immortal Hall at the top of the mountain. I've tried before, and the higher the mountain goes, the stronger the restraint on the monks, and even to the end, it is very difficult to even descend and walk. So I think there should be a normal passage on this mountain, so that I can reach the top of the mountain smoothly, I wonder if you fellow Daoists have found a similar passage?" Xia Mu asked calmly.
"What Xia Daoyou said is exactly what I want to say next, in this Ten Thousand Spirits Mountain, unless it is a strong person above the immortal realm, anyone must go up the mountain along the specially opened road, this is the rule set by the Starry Sky Immortal Lord back then, because in this specially opened up road without forbidden air, there are also many tests, and only the best disciples can pass the test to reach the Starry Sky Immortal Hall and see the Starry Sky Immortal Lord. ”
Qiu Shuixian glanced at Xia Mu, and continued in a slight tone: "So the top priority is to find that special road to the top of the mountain, otherwise we will not be able to forcibly fly up with our own strength." ”
"I'll leave this point to you, when I explored this mountain before, I saw a bluestone staircase in the clouds and mist from a distance, I think it should be the test road to the top of the mountain in Qiu Daoyou's mouth. Li Dequan, who had been silent, suddenly said.
"In that case, without further ado, please ask Li Daoyou to lead the way in front, and we'll go over and have a look now. Hearing this, Qiu Shuixian said with a smile.
"Good. Li De's whole body was full of yellow light, and the whole person instantly turned into a streamer and flew towards the east of the mountain wall, and Xia Mu and the four of them also unfolded their own light and followed closely behind.
During this period, the divine thoughts of several people have been kept within a radius to prevent any accidents from happening.
After all, this mountain is the ancient and famous Wanling Mountain, not to mention whether there are any ancient fierce beasts in it, just the various forbidden formations that exist in it, they can't help but be careless, for fear that if they don't pay attention, they will touch some danger.
And just as Xia Mu and the others were rushing to the test path, on the mountainside of another giant mountain thousands of miles away from Wanling Mountain, the four Shentai Realm cultivators of the Starry Sky Relic Clan all gathered here.
