———— white mist surrounded the two of them, and as long as they opened up a meter forward, the fog would outflank them by one meter, and there would always be only visibility half a meter in diameter.
If it weren't for the guidance of the compass, Hao Ren would have suspected that he had lost his way.
Just when they didn't know how far they had to go, a black boulder hall suddenly appeared in front of their eyes.
The pedestal is square, layered on top of each other, and when you look up to see the spire, you find that the spire has reached into the white mist!
Tower of Babel!
The huge tower made of rough boulders, a breath of desolation, rushing to the face!
Zhao Yanzi tugged Hao Ren's arm and approached him, "How much time is left?" ”
"We walked a total of 16,389 steps, which is a distance of 8 kilometers, and it took about an hour and a half." Hao Ren replied to her.
"That's four and a half hours left." Zhao Yanzi nodded, and then thought that he and Hao Ren had walked more than 10,000 steps hand in hand, which could be regarded as a record-breaking.
She let go of her hand slightly, but when she saw the black temple in front of her, she was a little scared, so she held Hao Ren's palm in embarrassment.
Hao Ren didn't notice her small movements, just flipped through the map and looked at it carefully for a while.
The entrance is in the front position, and after entering the temple, there are also routes explored by the predecessors, and as long as you follow the route, you can enter the core of the main hall.
"Let's go!" Hao Ren put away the map, dragged Zhao Yanzi and walked towards the temple.
Zhao Yanzi followed Hao Ren step by step, entered the black gate on the east side of the temple, and then followed Hao Ren into the gloomy black corridor.
Wow!
Hao Ren released a ball of flame from the palm of his hand, which was transformed by using fire-based sword qi, and in this environment, it was used as a torch for lighting.
The black corridor was made of unknown black stones, even if there were no skeletons and cobwebs, in the reflection of the firelight and the echo of the footsteps, it still made Zhao Yanzi a little nervous.
Hao Ren checked the route with the map and every bend he passed. Even if there are no traps or traps in this temple, if you go the wrong way, you can waste a lot of time.
That is, in this temple, the sense of oppression on the wasteland outside just now was instantly gone, that is to say, this black stone should be able to separate the effect of absorbing spiritual power from the wasteland.
"Uncle, I'm a little scared." After following Hao Ren for a while, Zhao Yanzi suddenly said.
"There's a map, what's there to be afraid of." Hao Ren replied to her as he walked, looking at the map.
On the map, it shows that they are not far from the main hall. Just go through three more turns to enter the main hall.
"If we can't get out, we'll go around the bend here for the rest of our lives, right?" Zhao Yanzi said.
Damn, you're a real dragon, don't be so gutsless, okay? Hao Ren thought so in his heart that he almost said it.
But looking at Zhao Yanzi's little face in the firelight, she is still a little girl after all, Hao Ren can only comfort her softly, "It's okay, if it's really dangerous, your mother won't let you in." ”
"Hmm......" Zhao Yanzi replied hesitantly, and moved closer to Hao Ren's side.
Turn left, then a ramp, then go back to the right...... The brightly lit Yuanlong Hall entered Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi's field of vision.
The nearly 100-meter-high black Yuanlong stone statue stands in the main hall of the main hall, exuding a glittering black light!
Eighteen black claws, each holding eighteen weapons, and in its mouth, a huge gold bead in its mouth!
It is this golden pearl that illuminates the entire hall like day!
Walking around the stone statue, there are four incense cases in each of the four directions of the stone statue, and three incense candles have been lit in the three directions of the south and northwest!
This also means that the other three parties came here earlier than them! And according to the length of the incense candles, Zeng Yitao from the West Sea was the first to arrive here!
"Let's hurry up and put on the incense." Zhao Yanzi said urgically.
"Hmm." Hao Ren took Zhao Yanzi back to the incense table in the east, took out an incense candle with spiritual power from it, lit it with fire sword qi, and then respectfully inserted it into a simple incense burner.
There was nothing wrong with this incense candle, it was fragrant and burned gradually. In this kind of Yuanlong Palace, even Zeng Yitao didn't dare to do anything casually!
Hao Ren pulled Zhao Yanzi, bowed to the stone statue, and then took Zhao Yanzi to the main entrance of the main hall according to the map.
It's just that Hao Ren is a little puzzled, this temple, judging from the appearance, the top of the tower goes straight into the depths of the mist, far more than 100 meters in height, but in this hall, the dragon head of the Yuanlong stone statue is almost close to the top of the main hall, that is to say, this temple should have several floors, or even dozens of floors, but in the route from the east entrance to the main hall, there is no road leading to the upper floors, or rather, there are no ancient teleportation arrays leading to the upper floors.
However, this time there was no time to study this conjecture at all, and the combination of Hao Ren, who was out of rank, and Zhao Yanzi, who was not of grade, really didn't have the strength to explore, so Hao Ren suppressed his inner speculation and walked out of the gate with a shallow white light on the front of the stone statue.
That is, the moment they passed through the white light, Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi both felt that their eyes suddenly opened up!
The gloomy atmosphere just now dissipated, and in its place, mountains, rivers, and green spaces were replaced!
It's just that the mountains here are not ordinary mountains, the rivers here are not ordinary rivers, and the grasslands here are not ordinary grasslands!
All kinds of unknown fairy grasses exuding a rich aura spread all over the plain! And in the river, the aura is galloping, and it is all fairy water!
The mountains are majestic, each one seems to be thousands of meters, and the height is not high!
Flood! This is the real flood of heaven and earth!
Different from the legendary flood wilderness, there are no spirit beasts here, there are no demon beasts, and there are only these fairy grasses all over the mountains and fields full of vitality!
Probably sensing the aura outside in the meson space, Xiaobai chirped in Hao Ren's necklace.
Hao Ren then thought that Xiaobai stayed in the necklace and came over.
He opened the mustard seed space and released it.
Xiaobai rolled and transformed into the form of a snow lion in mid-air, landing steadily.
If cultivators like to stay in places with strong spiritual energy, then spirit beasts are even more so! The aura here is a hundred times richer than that in the mustard seed space, and Xiao Bai is surrounded by Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi, which is extremely comfortable!
You must know that the concentration of the aura of the flood was the main reason for the countless alien beasts and spirit beasts between heaven and earth at that time! As a spirit animal, Xiaobai is undoubtedly like a fish in water in this environment!
"Roar! Roar! Xiaobai raised his head and shouted proudly!
Hao Ren looked at the green mountains and green waters in his eyes and put away the map. Walking out of the Yuanlong Hall, the next key thing is to find one of the nine branch halls.
And these branch halls, the direction is not fixed, I don't know which corners of this world are scattered, you can only find them by pure luck.
Back then, Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang worked hard to find a "negative hall", which was already considered lucky. Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi's physical strength and skill were not as good as them back then, and it had already taken an hour to come out of the Yuanlong Palace, and it would be more difficult to find any branch hall on foot.
"Ah Zi, you say, which direction are you going?" Hao Ren looked sideways at Zhao Yanzi.
Zhao Yanzi was also unsure, so he could only close his eyes, rotate a few times, and then point in one direction, and open his eyes, "Okay, let's do it here!" ”
"Hmm!" Hao Ren didn't hesitate, and pulled her in this direction.
Seeing Hao Ren trusting herself like this, Zhao Yanzi was a little moved, and she actually forgot to accuse Hao Ren for holding her hand without her consent.
Red flowers and green grass, thinking that the soles of his feet are stepping on rare and rare grasses that are rare for thousands of years, Hao Ren feels that he is very luxurious.
Now I am in a hurry to find the branch hall, if I can't find it in the end, then collect more of these spirit grasses, which can be regarded as making up for it. Anyway, his mustard seed space was the size of a room, and filling these different types of immortal grass, even if it couldn't be cultivated and refined into pills, it should be a lot of wealth.
Xiaobai is rolling and churning on these grasses, without the slightest reserve and consciousness as a snow lion, he is simply a big dog.
When they walked to the end of this plain and came to the foot of the nearest mountain, Zhao Yanzi showed a tired look. It is controlled by the temple's Ancient Array, and it is impossible for Edgeworth to fly, so everything can only be done on foot.
And to find the branch hall, you have to climb at least to the top of a nearby hill that is not too low to get a full view of the surrounding situation, and then you can hope to see the location of the branch hall.
Thinking that he still had to climb a mountain, and this mountain, which was four or five hundred meters high, and Zhao Yanzi, whose face was flushed, was a little breathless.
Roar! Roar!
Xiao Bai circled around Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi, shaking his head and tail, seemingly extremely cheerful.
"Dead Xiaobai, you are the most energetic, I'm almost exhausted!" Zhao Yanzi couldn't help but stretch out his fist to hit Xiaobai.
And her fist hit Xiao Bai's soft body, it was like tickling it, this "dead dog" simply lay on the ground, exposing his belly, as if he hoped that Zhao Yanzi would scratch his belly again.
Zhao Yanzi was angry and anxious, and sure enough, he pounded at its belly.
Suddenly, Hao Ren had an idea, "Ah Zi, you sit on Xiaobai's back!" ”
"Huh?" Zhao Yanzi didn't react a little.
"With Xiaobai's size, you should be fine with a camel!" Hao Ren squatted down and patted Xiaobai's face with his hand, not allowing it to pretend to be cute and coquettish, and let it turn over.
"Xiaobai, is it okay?" Zhao Yanzi looked at Xiaobai, who looked like a giant Samoyed, and asked Hao Ren with some hesitation.
"This lazy little white, only eat and don't do, how can you do it?" Hao Ren stepped forward and pressed Xiaobai's neck, then held up Zhao Yanzi's waist and let her sit on Xiaobai's back.
Xiaobai was a little unhappy at first, squatting down on all fours, but when Hao Ren slapped it on the buttocks, it immediately stood up again.
Now I can see that Xiaobai, this guy, is lazy and lazy, and he is unwilling to contribute if he doesn't spur it.
Zhao Yanzi had only ridden a horse in the park before, and had never ridden a "lion", sitting on Xiaobai's body, and there were some apprehensions, but Xiaobai, whose back height was nearly one meter high, was not weaker than a pony in terms of size.
"It's up the mountain!" Hao Ren grabbed the mane on the side of Xiaobai's face, like leading a horse, and led Xiaobai up the mountain.
He has the Dragon Pill in his body, and he also practices the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Duel, as long as the land here does not absorb spiritual power, there will be no problem in terms of physical strength.
"Xiaobai, drive!" Zhao Yanzi, who gradually sat down, really regarded Xiaobai as a horse, casually broke a branch on the side of the road, and gently slapped Xiaobai's buttocks.
Xiaobai's black eyes were full of grievances. I knew it earlier, so I nested in the mustard seed space and came out without noise...... The mountain road is four or five hundred meters high, and there are no reclaimed steps, which makes the process of climbing the mountain particularly laborious. Time passed little by little, Hao Ren was anxious, but there was nothing he could do about such a speed.
In the wilderness, they all rely on their own brute strength and instinct, or natural supernatural powers, and no one can use the magic power of cultivation!
The characters who lived in the flood wilderness back then also went up the mountain step by step like this, and they would never walk with a sword!
And Zhao Yanzi sat on Xiaobai's broad back, picking the fruits on the low trees, red fruits, green fruits, and blue fruits...... all stuffed into Xiaobai's mouth.
Finally arrived at the top of the mountain, Hao Ren secretly calculated, and it took almost another hour! And this is already the result of him speeding up his pace and approaching the trot, and Xiaobai is also constantly rushing in his urging!
There were not many trees on the top of the mountain, and Hao Ren stood on the highest stone and looked into the distance.
In the field of vision, most of them are still large plains, one by one!
Zhao Yanzi rode Xiaobai and also came to Hao Ren's side. Her eyes widened, and she tried to find the branch hall.
"Over there! Over there! Zhao Yanzi suddenly shouted happily.
Hao Ren followed her gaze, and sure enough, he saw a black dot, located in the middle of a plain far, far away.
"It's too far, it's too late to pass at our speed." Hao Ren said.
Zhao Yanzi was slightly disappointed, then opened his eyes and looked carefully at other places.
For this vast world, nine branch halls are too small! Even if the view is wide, it can only be a small black dot, not to mention that they may be hidden on the back of a certain mountain range!
Hao Ren turned his spiritual power into his eyes, so that the plants and trees within a range of a few hundred meters could be seen, and the scene within a range of several thousand meters could also be seen as a rough idea!
"Over there, there's one!" Hao Ren pointed to the direction on the left and said.
Zhao Yanzi's eyes widened and he tried his best to look, but he couldn't see clearly. But Hao Ren saw very clearly that under the foot of the mountain, there was a branch hall hidden! Although it is only a pillar with an edge exposed, this is definitely a branch hall!
"Okay, just go there!" Zhao Yanzi couldn't see clearly, but he also believed in Hao Ren's eyesight and made a decision immediately.
Hao Ren secretly calculated in his heart, this is already the closest branch hall in his sight, although he also saw a branch hall in his sight that is farther away than the branch hall that Zhao Yanzi found, but now time is precious, an hour to go down the mountain, and then two hours to the branch hall after the foot of the mountain, whether there is still time to be able to find treasures inside, it is already difficult to say!
So Zhao Hongyu said that being able to get three treasures is a bumper harvest, and being able to get two treasures is already good, even if you get one, it is a success!
"Xiaobai, go down the mountain!" Hao Ren slapped Xiaobai's fat ass.
Xiao Bai screamed, and quickly went down the mountain with Zhao Yanzi on his back! It dodges left and right, easily avoiding the trees on the hillside!
Hao Ren chased after it, and he was a little powerless!
Suddenly, Xiaobai let out a long roar and leaped up in front of a big rock blocking the way!
Rumble!
Xiaobai in mid-air, four claws on fire!
Xiao Bai carried Zhao Yanzi and did not fall with the trend, but flew up in the air!
Talented!
