Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Flame Realm
After walking for about half an hour, there was a sudden light in front of me, and a hall of about dozens of square meters appeared at the end of the long cave.
The walls and ceiling of this hall are snow-white, and they are made of white jade. The stone floor in the courtyard is jet black and shiny, and it seems to be paved with some kind of black stone. Although there is nothing in this hall, the walls and floors are as bright as washing, and there is a solemn and solemn meaning under the black and white prints. On the walls around the hall, there are five stone doors scattered around.
Before Sha Bai could take a closer look at the hall, the urging of the gray shadow sounded in his ears, "The second door on the right, quick!"
Sha Bai walked to the door as he said, pushed hard, and the stone door opened, and a passage appeared behind the door, and inside the passage was a row of steps downward.
After Sha Bai walked hundreds of steps along the stone steps, the originally narrow passage gradually widened, and the two of them had no problem walking side by side.
After walking forward for another 100 meters, a huge lake suddenly appeared in front of me! There are woods and meadows around the lake, and it is actually a fairyland of birds and flowers!
The forest and meadows are overgrown with all kinds of exotic flowers and trees. Huge white lotus flowers, dark green grass that exudes a strange fragrance, golden bamboos with the thickness of arms, and strange trees with light blue and fiery red are all rare things that are rarely seen in the outside world. A winding gravel path by the lake leads to the hole where Shabai enters, and the other end of the path leads to the distance behind the trees, with no end in sight.
Seeing this strange scene, Sha Bai was slightly stunned, but immediately subconsciously took a deep breath. This aura mixed with a strong smell of grass and trees refreshes people's hearts and makes Sha Bai feel refreshed.
The voice of the gray shadow in his ears seemed to be very excited: "Haha! Sure enough, it's here! I can't imagine that after thousands of years, the old man can actually return here!"
Sha Bai asked, "Senior, this is the ancient fire monk ruins you said?"
"That's right, this is one of the caves of the Fire Spirit Gate, the Fire Flame Realm!" Gray Shadow's voice paused, and then hurriedly said to Sha Bai: "You go back to the hall you passed by just now, after the stone door we came in, there are five dark grids on the wall, you find the second dark grid from the left, press it immediately!"
"Senior, what are those rules?" Sha Bai asked.
"Don't ask! Go, the people behind are coming!" Grayshadow's voice seemed to be a little angry.
Sha Bai didn't dare to ask any more. He hurried back to the stone gate and groped around the stone wall, and sure enough, there were a few hidden compartments. Find the second one on the left, Sha Bai pressed downward, and immediately there was a creaking sound on the stone wall, and then, two huge black stone slabs fell from behind the stone door, and with two loud noises, the stone slabs had completely sealed the stone door.
Sha Bai was stunned for a moment. The slab looked to be five or six meters thick, and the surface still exuded a faint black light, which looked extremely hard. These two stone slabs seal the entrance to the cave, but how can they get out?
When Sha Bai returned to the lake, he saw a gray-robed figure standing by the lake in the distance.
Seeing Sha Bai returning, the gray shadow turned around and asked, "Is the stone door closed?"
Sha Bai was stunned for a moment and replied, "It's closed." A few stone slabs fell, and the passage was completely sealed. ”
Grayshadow nodded, "That's good." Then he beckoned to Sha Bai and said, "Come here." Now that I'm here, there are some things I should tell you about. ”
Sha Bai stepped forward and carefully examined the gray shadow.
The gray shadow has appeared before, but it is only a hazy shadow. It was only at this moment that Sha Bai saw the gray shadow's face clearly for the first time. This person has a slender figure, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a blank look on his face, looking both chic and elegant, and has a majestic momentum.
Gray Shadow said slowly: "My real name is Linghu Heavenly Sword, and I am the master of the Heavenly Sword Sect of the Ancient Cultivation Sect. Before entering the Heavenly Sword Gate, I had also practiced in the Fire Spirit Gate for many years, and I was one of the four elders of the Fire Spirit Gate, so I was very familiar with the secret realm of the Fire Spirit Gate.
In ancient times, the Flying Ape Clan invaded the Earth and fought a great war with the Terran monks. Although the Terrans eventually defeated the Ape Clan, all the Xiuzhen sects suffered heavy losses. My Heavenly Sword Sect, the five great grandmasters, elders, and tens of thousands of disciples, after this tragic battle, there are less than 100 people left. As the master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, I was also in the fierce battle with Yuan Shuiqing, one of the four great demon generals of the ape clan, and my body and spirit were broken, and only a wisp of distraction escaped.
After my distraction escaped from the battlefield, I eagerly found a piece of armor that belonged to a Fire Spirit Sect Grandmaster and hid it inside. The Grandmaster of the Fire Spirit Sect was an old friend of mine, and he also fell in the fierce battle. There were ten top-grade fire spirit stones hidden in the inner shell of his battle armor, which contained a large amount of pure fire spirit power. For thousands of years, I have relied on the fire spirit stones in this armor to remain to this day.
Seeing that the aura in the armor was about to run out, I met you by chance. The fire spirit stone you brought with you, although it is far inferior to the ancient top-grade fire spirit stone, the aura contained in it is also relatively pure, and it could have been used by me for ten or eight years. Unexpectedly, you met the ape-like monk on the mountain again, and in the midst of the crisis, I had to use all the spiritual energy in the spirit stone to improve your cultivation. After the spiritual power in the spirit stone is exhausted, I have to stay in the spiritual energy core in your body for the time being.
Now that you and I are here, there are a few things to discuss between you and me. ”
Sha Bai asked, "Senior Linghu, what do you want to discuss with me?"
Linghu Tianjian sighed: "When I was in ancient times, after tens of thousands of years of cultivation, I had reached the realm of a grandmaster. Unexpectedly, it was invaded by the ape clan, and there were many accidents, so that now there is only a wisp of remnant soul left.
My greatest wish is to use the method of soul nurturing and physical body recasting to reforge my physical body and regain my former spiritual realm. But I need someone to help me make this wish come true. How about we make a deal?
I can teach you what you have learned all your life and help you improve your cultivation in this secret realm. You have to promise me one thing. After you have cultivated enough to the realm, buy two things for me, one is soul-nourishing ironwood, and the other is the body-forging divine lotus. Soul Nourishing Iron Wood can help me restore my soul, and forging the Divine Lotus can make me recast my body. Would you like this deal?"
Sha Bai hesitated for a moment: "Senior, I am naturally willing." But where do I go to find those two things here?"
Ling Fox Heavenly Sword smiled slightly, "Soul Nourishing Iron Wood, there is one in this secret realm. After you reach the intermediate spirit disciple realm, I will tell you how to forge it. As for the Forging Body Divine Lotus, it was also a rare treasure in ancient times, and I am not sure if there is such a thing as sutra. You just have to promise me that you will search for it with your heart in the future, and as for whether you can find it, it depends on my luck. ”
