Chapter 61: The Stone Palace

The stone hall is extremely spacious but also clear at a glance, in the center is a black stone sculpture about three meters high, but the damage is extremely serious, can only barely be seen to be a human-shaped stone sculpture, in the light of a few pieces of Hao stone emitting a faint fluorescence. There are also twelve large pillars with a diameter of one meter to support the roof of the temple, and each stone pillar is carved with various rare animals and some strange human figures with wings and long beaks and wearing armor.

"I think I've read a book about this kind of winged birdman!"

Qi Tian's eyes lit up, and he took out the overview of the Eastern Regions that Xiang Buwen gave and flipped to the story of the battle between the gods and alien demons, and after comparing the appearance depicted in the book with the light of the Haoshi, he found that these strange human shapes with wings and bird beaks were the monsters called alien demons recorded in the book.

He reached out and touched the carving on the column, and wondered if everything in the book was true, but why did the storyteller never tell a story about the salvation of the gods?

Walking inward along the stone pillars, he found that at the end of the stone hall there was only a stone platform more than two meters high, and there was a wide stone chair on it.

Qi Tian carefully looked around, looking for the traces left by everyone in the rubble all over the ground, fortunately, he had been mixed in the Dacang Mountain since he was a child, and he also had a lot of experience in finding and recognizing the traces, and after turning around the hall a few times, he could generally see that there were about three waves of people who had come to this hall before and after, and the blood stains on the ground seemed extremely abnormal, and they all seemed to be left at the same time.

"Could it be that a group of people attacked another group of people at the same time?" Qi Tian frowned, feeling more and more that something was wrong.

Suddenly, he noticed that there were slight scratches on the feet of the black stone carving in the middle, and the traces were very new, and after careful observation for a while, he suddenly thought of the situation when he entered the ring below when he went to the 'eating place' to fight the black fist, and thought that this stone sculpture might be a mechanism or something.

He raised his head, looked at the stone chair on the high platform facing the stone carving, and his heart moved slightly, and he pressed hard towards the stone carving's feet.

"Eh, no response!" Qi Tian blinked, and pressed hard a few times, but the stone carving still didn't move. He knew that he must have made a mistake, so he tried to push the stone carving again, but although the stone carving was broken, it still weighed as much as a thousand pounds, and how could it be pushed by a teenager of his. He pushed it a few more times, and he was tired and panting like a cow sweating, and he couldn't push the stone carving at all, so he had to kick the stone carving a few times before he gave up.

"Hey, I don't know if Senior Sister Fang and Xiao Zhuzhu are also among them, they have already started to attack each other the next day. ”

Qi Tian licked his chapped lips, took out four or five yellow persimmons from the storage bag and grabbed them in his hand, threw one in his mouth and chewed it slowly, he didn't dare to eat it, for fear that his jaw would dislocate again.

This persimmon grows all year round and is available everywhere. Although it tastes a little astringent, it is an excellent food to replenish physical strength and water, for Qi Tian, as long as he can't eat the dead, there is nothing to pick, and it has become his habit to carry more than a dozen yellow persimmons with him.

"There are no other exits to this hall, and there is no trace of them going out, so where did all the people who came in go?"

Qi Tian slowly chewed the yellow persimmon and thought about what might happen in the stone hall, while paying attention to the surrounding situation vigilantly, for fear that something like a ghost would suddenly appear.

Thinking of the ghost, he didn't feel a tense feeling in his heart at this time, and looked at the ghost face on the back of his left hand, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like Bian Yun, and he couldn't help but think about the evil thing that Mr. Zhong said.

"Could it be that Mr. Zhong had a premonition, so he gave me the Demon Swinging Bell?" Qi Tian's heart churned, as the ghost face pattern on the back of his hand became clearer, and even when he urged the induction chapter, he could clearly detect an extremely faint qi energy tightly locking on him.

For the cultivation of his own induction chapter, Qi Tian thinks that he is still very good. Now in addition to sleeping, he spends almost all of his time urging the induction chapter, because the three-color qi soul is also practicing the induction chapter at all times, and he is not far from the realm of induction into nature that Mr. Zhong said. Therefore, he could be sure that the faint qi energy he sensed was caused by the ghost face on the back of his left hand.

As for whether Bian Yun turned into a ghost to seek revenge on him, Qi Tian was actually not afraid in his heart, he was confident that he could kill Bian Yun once and kill the second and third times, what he was thinking about was more about how to fight the invisible thing? If it is a normal opponent, even if it is much stronger than him, as long as there is an entity that can touch it, as long as it is not a punch that can kill him, then there is still a way, but for the ghost and invisible thing, it is really helpless.

Qi Tian ate five yellow persimmons, felt that his physical strength and energy had recovered a lot, so he stood up and stretched, and practiced the Tuotian style for a while, only to feel that the qi energy in his body flowed more quickly, the original wheat-colored skin looked a little fairer, and the wound that was cut by Bian Yun before was also much better, and some less serious places even left only faint scars.

"It's no wonder that Xiang Buwen wants to be friends with me, this kind of body forging method is what everyone wants, in the future, I must go to the Southern Regions to find the old man, but instead of recognizing his relatives, I want to beat him severely, who asked him to leave me and Brother Erhu!" Qi Tian rubbed his chin, and he always felt a little crooked in his heart.

After thinking about it for a while, Qi Tian remembered the previous fight with Xiang Buwen, and suddenly thought that he was not only rigid in his moves, but also extremely rusty in his footwork and legs.

When he was practicing with Xiang Buwen before, Xiang Buwen kicked himself with his smart legs, and used his footwork to dodge most of his attacks, so even if he used all the thirty-two forms of the Thunder Fist technique, he didn't cause much damage to Xiang Buwen.

Of course, it's not that Thunder Fist is not strong, but Qi Tian has too little actual combat experience and doesn't know how to change and use moves. You must know that the thunder fist technique with the leg method and footwork will become sixty-four styles.

In fact, Mr. Gao told him the importance of laying a foundation when he took Qi Tian to Heijie for the first time, and he always kept it in his heart, and worked hard to observe and practice Thunder Boxing every day.

However, because of the experience of seeing Mr. Gao's "Divine Power" qi and magic power when he encountered the Nightmare Beast at night, he formed a concept in Qi Tian's heart that practicing boxing was greater than other cultivation, thus forming an obsession that he had not discovered himself.

That is to ignore that boxing should be used in conjunction with footwork and leg technique is the king, to some extent, he did not learn the essence of thunder boxing. However, the good thing is that because of the imprint left by the "Shenwei" spirit and supernatural power in his heart, he actually felt the prototype of the supernatural power of wind and thunder early.

And Qi Tian himself also felt that he had the wind and the spirit, and the speed was superior, so he didn't need to be so subtle in footwork, so he neglected to practice footwork.

Originally, Mr. Gao originally wanted to use the black fist ring in Wind River City to temper Qi Tian and let him realize this, but who would have thought that the current gang of guys all focused on the power of qi energy and neglected to hone their own martial arts skills, but this time the competition made Qi Tian discover his own shortcomings.

In fact, for the leg method in the martial arts technique, Qi Tian still practiced a rough idea, except for some of the leg techniques taught by Mr. when he was learning Lei Boxing, most of them were stolen by him and Erhu when he watched Dou Wushi teach martial arts children in the school, and then he realized the Liaoyuan leg method that Fang Wuwu sent him, but Qi Tian was obsessed with his heart, and he only thought about pursuing more powerful qi fighting skills, but ignored the strength of the martial arts fighting skills themselves.

Since the last time he practiced the Liaoyuan leg technique in the Lanyue Tower ship, Qi Tian would spare an hour every day to practice and observe the martial arts moves. He also deeply engraved every footwork and leg in his mind, but he never had the opportunity to perform it in battle, and when he had the opportunity, he forgot to perform it.

All the things that had happened during this period of time were shuttling back and forth in Qi Tian's thoughts like a marquee, making him constantly examine his own shortcomings.

Although he is young, the life of a beggar since he was a child has made him more aware that people's hearts are unpredictable, and only if he has high skills and big fists can he live.

"Looks like I'm going to have to re-examine what I'm capable of. This time I met Xiang Buwen, who had an unusual temperament, he didn't kill people and grab treasures, nor did he force me to say the eight forms of forging the body, but it doesn't mean that others won't. Qi Tian touched the white animal skin in his arms, and couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart.

Qi Tian encouraged himself, and kept reminding himself that he must remember to use all his skills when fighting in the future, not everyone is willing to "open the net" to themselves.

He took a deep breath and let his mood slowly calm down, not dwelling on what had happened, now meeting with Fang Wuwu or Hu Yanzhu is the most important thing.

This stone hall is so big, there is no place to hide people, Qi Tian patiently searched a few times, but still did not find more traces, he glanced at the Zhou Tian chess pieces in his hand that kept moving, thinking that this chess piece can only guide the direction, maybe it just happens that the stone hall is in this direction so it beats so fast.

Thinking of this, Qi Tian walked towards the door of the palace, and suddenly his palm ached, as if he was holding a piece of burning red charcoal in his hand, and hurriedly opened his palm, but found that the Zhou Tian chess piece in his hand emitted a dazzling red light, and suddenly jumped out, and after falling to the ground, it bounced several times, and it was a "whoosh" sound, and it flew towards the stone carving, making a crisp sound of "pop". Its power is almost as great as it is in stone, deeply embedded in the humanoid stone carving.

Just when Qi Tian looked confused, wondering if the chess pieces were lit by the cotton silk gloves, Hu Yanzhu's angry voice came from the chess pieces, "Xiao Tiantian, don't come in the direction of the tower, don't enter a stone hall full of pillars, and don't come to me! Go back to the gentlemen to help! Ye Muqing, that little lady has led us to a dead end." ”

"What dead end? I'm already in this stone hall. Qi Tian grabbed his hair, he didn't expect this chess piece to have the function of transmitting voice messages, and asked, "Where did Ye Qiushui take you?"

"What! You're already in the stone hall?"

Hu Yanzhu's surprised voice came from Zhou Tian's chess pieces, and after a while, he said: "Then you can't go out, why don't you come down too, you go to the chair ......" Before he finished speaking, he saw that Zhou Tian's chess pieces "poof" actually burst open and turned into pieces, leaving a gap the size of a fingernail on the stone carving.
