Chapter 678: Ancient Secrets
It seemed to have become a dead domain inside, there was no sound along the way, Chu Jiang searched every corner, including the library hall, and there were no classics left.
In the end, only the main hall was left unsearched.
There is a water-avoiding formation in the square in front of the main hall of the palace group, Chu Jiang studied it, and felt that there should be no problem with arranging it according to his current strength, it seems that this thing was not a too advanced formation in ancient times, but there are relatively few people who know it, and it is rarely used under normal circumstances, so there is no circulation now.
Remembering the arrangement of the water avoidance formation, Chu Jiang walked into the main hall at this time.
The main hall only has one floor, but it is very high, so that Chu Jiang can detect his existence at a glance outside just now, this main hall is much higher than other buildings, which is a bit unusual.
The inside of the main hall was already covered with dust, and many things had turned into dust after the passage of time, and Chu Jiang would turn into powder if he touched it lightly.
Walked around, but still didn't find anything, Chu Jiang couldn't help but feel a little regretful, he finally found a ruin, but there was nothing.
And it is not a way to stay here all the time, just as Chu Jiang was about to evacuate, there was a sudden loud bang, and the center of the main hall actually sank, revealing a huge hole!
Chu Jiang was taken aback, what was going on? Could it be that he had triggered some mechanism?
Although he was puzzled in his heart, Chu Jiang still stepped forward to take a look, and there were actually steps down in the pit! The entire staircase was made of a special material, and after such a long time, not only did it not rot, but there was not even a trace of dust!
Chu Jiang looked inside, and there was no way to see the end.
After pondering for a while, Chu Jiang still decided to go down and take a look.
All the way down, there was nothing abnormal, and after a while, Chu Jiang finally came to the bottom of this pothole, and the surrounding scene made Chu Jiang gasp.
At the bottom of the pit were bones all over the ground! These bones had turned into fly ashes after so long, and Chu Jiang scattered with a light touch.
"What's going on? How can there be so many bones? Could it be that this was used to bury the dead before?" Chu Jiang thought secretly in his heart.
Continuing to walk inside, there was a stone gate, which seemed to be protected by a formation before, but now it is out of order, and Chu Jiang can easily enter it.
Walking into the stone gate, Chu Jiang found that there was an altar inside.
The altar is located in the innermost part of the whole room, starting from the position of Chu Jiang, there is a passage that runs through half the length of the entire room, and after this is a continuous staircase that continues to the front of the altar, on both sides of the passage, there are several stone pillars.
The number of pillars is symmetrical on both sides, and the style is exactly the same, Chu Jiang did not rush to the altar, but came to the front of the stone pillar to take a closer look.
The material of the pillar is the same as the stone steps above, but instead of dragons and phoenixes, it is carved with a fish!
Chu Jiang felt that the fish carved on it was a bit similar to the fish he had encountered before, but there were some details that were different, and the spikes on the scales of this fish were even longer.
It seems that the fish out there was created based on this creature!
After Chu Jiang finished looking, he began to walk towards the altar.
There is nothing special about the shape of the altar, but at this time, a stone box placed in the center of the altar attracted Chu Jiang's attention.
The stone box is not big, the material used is the same as the altar, Chu Jiang knocked on the stone box gently, and there was no movement.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Jiang still gently opened the stone box, and there was a scroll of ancient books lying inside, and a spherical stone was placed next to it.
Chu Jiang first opened the ancient book and took a look, and found that what was written on it was not the current text, Chu Jiang couldn't understand it, so he temporarily put it back into the distance.
Then, he picked up the stone on the side, and just when Chu Jiang's finger touched the spherical stone, the stone suddenly flew into the air, and emitted a burst of dazzling light!
Chu Jiang was startled, picked up the stone box casually, and jumped back.
The imaginary change did not happen, but the stone swirled and released an image.
In the image, there is a bustling underwater city, and the area of the city is huge! In the depths of the city, there is a splendid palace complex. There is no difference between the people who live here and the people who live today.
Immediately after the picture turned, I saw that a group of uninvited guests seemed to come to the water outside the city, and these people were wrapped in blood-red robes, making it difficult to see their faces!
I saw a blood-colored attack bombarding the city protection array.
The moat was crumbling.
In the depths of the lake, there were many corpses of big fish floating, Chu Jiang took a closer look and found that it was exactly the same species as the manta ray he encountered!
It seems that these manta rays are used to protect the city, but they are no match for these red-robed people at all.
Chu Jiang continued to look down.
I saw a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe standing on the city wall, but the pattern embroidered on this robe was not a dragon, but the kind of fish carved on the stone pillar that Chu Jiang saw just now!
It seems that this fish is the belief of this race.
There was also a middle-aged beautiful woman standing next to the middle-aged man, except for a few faint wrinkles, the years had not left too many marks on her face, and on the other side was a young man, gorgeously dressed and handsome.
Obviously, this middle-aged man is the ruler of the city, and the women and young people next to him are his wife and children.
I saw that the middle-aged man said something. And then the whole city was boiling!
Then the middle-aged man opened the city protection array by himself!
When I arrived, the scene turned to see that the bustling city had been reduced to ruins and sunk into the dirt at the bottom of the lake, and only the palaces remained on it.
The middle-aged man dragged his mangled body to the place where the altar was, took out a round ball, and put a video into it. At the same time, he left a wisp of remnant soul, and then fell to the ground and died.
This is where the story ends.
After the ball was released, the image automatically shattered, and a golden light rose from it.
I saw a wisp of remnant soul slowly condense in the air, and finally turned into the appearance of the middle-aged man!
"Young man, did you wake me up?" The remnant soul opened his eyes and looked at Chu Jiang indifferently.
Chu Jiang respectfully hugged his fists at the remnant soul and said, "Junior, Chu Jiang has seen the seniors, and it was the juniors who woke up the seniors!"
The remnant soul sighed and said, "How is the land of Tianzhe now?"
Chu Jiang was puzzled: "The land of Tianzhe has always been good!"
After hearing this, the remnant soul's eyes lit up, and he was pleasantly surprised: "So those races that came from outside the world were finally dispersed?"
"Alien race?" Chu Jiang was even more puzzled.
The remnant seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Yes, since you have seen me, it means that you have seen that video! The blood-robed man who destroyed this city is only one of the invaders!"
Chu Jiang listened very incredible.
The remnant soul continued: "One day in the past, a large number of alien races suddenly descended on this continent! their strength is actually not very different from the people of our Heavenly Philosophy Land, but the terrifying thing is that their skills are extremely strange, and the major forces in the Heavenly Philosophy Land did not know about them at the beginning, resulting in heavy losses.
Later, the people of the major forces slowly groped their way out and began to organize a counteroffensive, and just when the form was very good, and even when they were about to win, a mysterious force descended from the sky! Those invaders cultivated in an instant! They possessed extremely powerful strength!
Even the Nether Realm has been invaded! And it was at this time that our people were destroyed!"
Chu Jiang was dumbfounded when he heard this, there was still such a thing, so why wasn't there any literature?
"Senior, but this matter has not been circulated, and few people must know about it. Chu Jiang said.
The remnant soul shook his head: "I don't know this, I don't know what happened after my clan was destroyed, and I was asleep until I was awakened by you." You'll have to look into it yourself. ”
Chu Jiang nodded, indicating that he understood.
The remnant soul continued: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, since you have awakened me, it means that you and I have fate, and the ancient books in the stone box in your hand are the supreme exercises of my clan, called duality. The words recorded on it are all the words of my clan, you should not be able to understand it, now I will teach it to you, as for that volume of cheats, if you want to keep it, you can keep it, I didn't destroy it but I wanted to leave a memory. ”
After hearing this, Chu Jiang bowed respectfully to the remnant soul and said, "Thank you seniors for your advice!"
The remnant soul nodded, stretched out a finger and lightly touched Chu Jiang's eyebrows, and Chu Jiang suddenly felt a huge amount of information rushing into his mind!
The transmission ended quickly, Chu Jiang roughly glanced at this exercise, and immediately gasped, this exercise is called duality, it can turn itself into two clones of yin and yang, the cultivator's divine soul can be freely transferred in the two doppelgangers, and the clone without the divine soul will have its own consciousness and can act on its own!
The most terrifying thing is that the clone has all the power of the body!
The remnant soul waited until Chu Jiang finished reading it before he spoke: "My clan is a branch of the Water Clan, and this exercise is created by me according to the characteristics of my clan and the exercises of some other sects! I have transmitted to you some experiences that can help you practice! I hope that one day when the disaster comes, you can make a contribution!"
Chu Jiang thanked him.
After the heart, the remnant soul seemed to have no attachment, began to become crumbling, and finally dissipated in this world.
Chu Jiang bowed again to the place where the remnant soul disappeared, and said softly: "I will definitely not insult the gift of my predecessors!"
