Chapter 385: A Matter of Faith
Chapter 385 A Matter of Faith
The Arctic Ocean is not an ocean on the surface, it still looks like a reckless snowfield, and only through the solid ice sheet more than ten feet thick can you see the sea water hidden deep under the ice sheet.
The entrance to the Trapped Immortal Secret Realm is on a small island that is also covered in ice.
More than 170 saints moved at the same time, and it took half a moment of effort to sweep away the solid ice on the island, revealing the island floor that was no more than a hundred feet in circumference, like a coral reef.
In the center of the island, there is a monumental stone - nine zhang high, five zhang wide, and three zhang thick, and the base is closely connected with the island and reef, and it is rooted on the island and reef like a big tree. Its color is dark and unified, and it does not appear to have a single gap, except for two small circular holes in the center.
"According to legend, this place is the entrance to the secret realm of the Three Immortals. Since ancient times, I don't know how many people have come here to explore. Song Qianjun's face was calm, but there was excitement in his eyes that could not be concealed, "However, no matter how much wisdom and high martial arts the person who came, nothing was obtained." It is said that there was once a Supreme Immortal of the Fifth Mana Source Power Realm who tried to destroy this big stone, but this big stone was indestructible and could not be shaken at all!"
Nangong Tianyu's eyes flashed with a fanatical light, and he said in a trembling voice: "Xuan Ming is a rumored divine beast, and after death, he will incarnate into three immortals, and he will become a small world of his own, so there is a secret realm of trapped immortals. How can mortals destroy the gate set up by the divine beast? Even if I wait for the immortals to be called demigods, in front of the divine beasts, I am an out-and-out mortal! Without a key, how can you open the Divine Gate and enter the Secret Realm of Trapped Immortals? β
Yao Gongjin pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, staring at Da Shi with burning eyes, seemingly calm on the surface, but his fingers were trembling slightly, betraying his true thoughts in his heart.
Immediately, the three great immortals looked at Luo Yun together.
Without being reminded by these three people, Luo Yun took out two crystal gourds, jumped up from Bai Zhen's back, jumped in front of the two small round holes in the center of the stele-shaped boulder, and inserted the crystal gourd into the round holes.
Just tight, no seams.
Click! Click!
There was a sound of eggshells shattering, and endless cracks bloomed on the stele stone, and then countless dark pieces were seen peeling off from the stele stone. However, in a moment, the stele boulder, which had peeled off a large number of fragments, showed its true face.
It is a huge stone gate that is nine feet high and five feet wide!
Thundered......
The shocking loud bang of the table tennis card, the stone gate opened!
An ancient breath that has precipitated endless years, carrying the desolate cold wind blowing in the face, blowing the hearts of everyone in front of the door, and an indescribable sense of vicissitudes in the heart.
More than 100 people in front of the door were silent, and everyone looked at the open door with excited and fanatical eyes.
Behind the door, there was a vast green void, and there was infinite black qi surging, and no one could see the clues.
The three immortals exchanged glances with each other, and then looked at Luo Yun together.
"Three of you, please." Luo Yun didn't pay much attention to the treasures and mana inside, so he didn't mind the three of them taking the lead.
The three great immortals hesitated slightly, and then set their eyes on the lone sages who were following Luo Yunβthe Pathfinder Stone, it was time to play a role at this time.
Li Ying and more than twenty other sages, who were really determined to cling to Luo Yun, were all clustered around Luo Yun at this moment. Behind Luo Yun, the other twenty or so sages who kept a distance of about ten zhang from him were all speculators at both ends of the head rat. At this moment, under the gaze of the three great immortals, these people all had numb scalps and flickering eyes.
Luo Yun didn't say a word about this, he was not a saint, he had no obligation to maintain these wall grass, and even looked at the more than twenty people with his eyes, exerting pressure together with the three sky-high prices.
The more than twenty saints had no choice but to bite the bullet and came to the gate.
The three great immortals, Luo Yun, as well as the one hundred and twenty-one sages of the three factions, Li Ying, and the twenty-seven sages who were attached to Luo Yun, all looked at the twenty-four sages with burning eyes.
The gate was five feet wide, enough for the twenty-four people to enter side by side.
The twenty-four saints looked at each other for a while, and finally they all took a long breath and stepped into the gate.
But at this moment, an invisible wave suddenly surged out of the void behind the door, pushing towards these twenty-four saints!
With the power of the saints, they couldn't resist this invisible fluctuation! The twenty-four saints, all as if they had been pushed hard by an invisible hand, staggered back one by one, and only after retreating a few zhang did they stabilize their bodies!
"What's going on?" Song Qianjun said in a deep voice, with a hint of murderous intent in his tone.
Nangong Tianyu and Yao Gongjin also stared at the twenty-four sages, their eyes flashing with murderous intent. If these people dare to play tricks, even if they are all saints, the three great immortals will not hesitate to kill them.
Luo Yun also looked at these twenty-four saints, and there was no lack of surprise in his heart.
"Just now...... a middle-aged man had a strange look in his eyes and said in disbelief: "A force refuses to enter below!" When that force was pushed down, a voice seemed to sound in the lower head!"
"I feel the same way!"
These sages, for fear of being suspected by the three sky-high prices and the head of the Emei Palace, were playing tricks, so they explained one after another.
"That force is extremely powerful, and there is no power to resist it in the next competition! Luckily, that force just refused us entry, otherwise ......"
"I heard a voice below......"
"Yes, it's the same down there. The voice seemed to say...... If you are not a believer, you will not enter our country......"
"It seems that I want to let go of our hearts......"
The sages chattered and gradually came up with a general idea: the gate refused to allow these non-three immortal believers to enter. If you want to enter the door, you have to open your heart, take the three immortals as a faith, and worship them with all your heart.
"Joke!" Song Qianjun showed a grim smile on his face when he heard this, and said indifferently, "We are martial artists, we only worship our parents, ancestors, and elders, and only believe in martial arts. Even the ancestor of martial arts, Emperor Shenwu, we only worship it. If the three immortals were alive, we could have bowed to them. But that's just respecting their mana, not respecting them themselves, let alone believing in them. Now that the three immortals have long since fallen, why should they accept our worship? β
"Brother Qianjun is right." Nangong Tianyu also let out a sneer: "How many years have the three immortals been dead, who else do you want us to worship?" Worship this stone gate? β
Shenwu Martial Dao, especially the Supreme Immortals who have cultivated to the Mana Realm, are all very self-conscious, worshipping their parents, ancestors, masters and elders, that is filial piety. Respecting the Emperor of God and Wu is the source of respecting martial arts.
The Supreme Immortal respects strength, and the belief is also in himself.
If you don't have this martial arts spirit of "only believing in yourself" and "who else can I be", it will be difficult to break through the shackles of mortal fetuses and achieve the supreme immortal.
"Yao wants to try, how strong is this resistance power!" Yao Gongjin laughed and jumped up, and at the same time, the aura around him surged out and spread, enveloping Yao Gongjin's body, and then turned into a bright silver giant sword.
This giant sword with Yao Gongjin's physical body as the core and aura as the shell condensed looks no different from the giant sword made of solid metal.
Airplanes!
The giant sword shook, and suddenly there was a buzzing sound of thousands of bees flapping their wings at the same time, coming from the body of the sword. The giant sword that vibrated at high speed pulled out a straight bright silver light track, and rushed to the gate in an instant!
Collapse!
With a crisp and crisp sound, the giant sword that was about to crash into the void behind the door suddenly collapsed back. The body of the sword disintegrated inch by inch, collapsed into a bright silver aura, and then dissipated slightly, revealing the figure of Yao Gongjin in the sword.
Yao Gongjin has been blown away for dozens of feet, and after landing, he continued to retreat backwards as if he was being pushed by an invisible hand. With his feet on the ice outside the island, he ploughed out two deep ravines, and then withdrew a hundred feet away before he barely stopped!
"How so?" Song Qianjun was shocked when he saw this, and Nangong Tianyu was also awe-inspiring.
Luo Yun's expression was solemn, and he intuitively felt that this trapped immortal secret realm was probably not so simple.
"Unresistible!" Yao Gongjin had a gloomy face, strode back to the island, and said as he walked, "Yao...... There's no power to resist!"
"Impossible!" Song Qianjun's eyes widened when he heard this, and he blurted out: "The three immortals have long been dead, and without the mana support of the three immortals, how can there be such a strong force!"
Luo Yun sneered secretly in his heart when he heard this, although he faintly felt that there were many doubts about the matter of this group exploration, as if there was a pair of invisible big secretly manipulating all this. But he was not surprised by the fact that the immortals had fallen and the rules still existed.
Of course, these secrets related to the immortals, he would not kindly tell Song Qianjun and the three of them.
"What now?" Nangong Tianyu's brows furrowed slightly, and he said with a helpless look: "Do you really want to open your heart and worship the three immortals devoutly?" β
"Yao thought ......" Yao Gongjin personally felt the deepest feeling, knowing that if he didn't follow the rules, he couldn't walk into the door, "Since the three immortals are dead, then there is no obstacle for us to worship." Let go of your heart and worship the immortals, what are you most afraid of? Isn't it just to lose oneself and become a fanatical believer in immortals? But now that the three immortals are gone, they can't use their mana to influence our hearts, how can we lose ourselves and really believe in them? In addition, the three immortals of Xuan Ming are all supreme immortals in the tenth level of impermanent realm of mana, and their strength is thousands of times that of us, which is no less than that of the gods, and it is not impossible to worship. β
Song Qianjun and Nangong Tianyu pondered for a while, nodded reluctantly, and agreed with his statement.
At that moment, the three great immortals instructed the twenty-four saints who had been used as pathfinders to open their hearts and worship the three immortals devoutly.
Warriors can even control their dreams, and there is no problem in opening their hearts actively. The twenty-four sages were reluctant, but at the moment they were alone, and they didn't even have a single supportive immortal, so they could only act according to orders.
They don't even dare to cheat and play tricks - because they are not pious and worshipful, and they have their own gates to test.
At that moment, the twenty-four saints knelt down in front of the gate in a row, and after nine prostrations, they opened their hearts, closed their eyes and prayed silently.
