Chapter Eighty-Six: The Secret of the Third Floor
In the Qiongyu Tower, in just half a month, Chi Shui finished reading the jade slips that were useful to her.
The rest were either the ones she had read the opening blurb and knew she had seen them before or they were useless. Most of the jade slips recorded the history of the Canghai Continent over the past 10,000 years, mixed with a small number of information collected by the Lan family focusing on refining the array, including the evolution and development of the magic array.
After Chishui saw it, he also felt that he had benefited a lot.
She swept around, looked at the stairs around the corner, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards it.
According to Lan Yu's meaning, the second layer of the tower should be the Yuanying monk to go up, it is rare to have the opportunity to come here, since I want to go up to see, I believe that the things preserved on it should be more precious than here.
At this time, the disappearance of the blood shadow technique had disappeared, and she had regained her original appearance, and at the top of the stairs, the three figures merged into one, and then she stepped on the stairs.
When she reached the second floor, Chi Shui paused for a moment, and just now, she felt a large compound magic circle activate in the second floor. She took a closer look, and like the first floor, there were jade slips of different colors and styles hanging in the air, but the number was much less than that of the first floor, less than a hundred.
After Chi Shui was sure that there was no danger, he walked towards the nearest piece of jade slip.
In an instant, the scene in front of her changed, the ground disappeared, and the jade slip in front of her was like a mirage, far away, and at the same time, countless ice arrows appeared around her out of thin air, shooting towards her position.
On Chishui's body, a fiery red dragon quickly burst out, with the thickness of a bucket, and the dragon's tail was hidden in Chishui's body, the dragon's body twisted, and a roar caused the dragon's horns and dragon's beard to tremble, and he opened his mouth, Rao Chishui turned around, and sucked all those ice arrows into his mouth.
However, in a single breath, all those ice arrows were melted by the heat of the fire dragon, and not even a drop of water was seen, and they were reduced to nothing.
The dragon seemed to be a little unpleasant, shook his head, and then reluctantly faded away.
This dragon was the Fire Spirit Bead that Qiongmu helped her refine, and his skills were extraordinary, and the dragon he refined was even more powerful than the fire dragon she had conjured up from the magic technique she had obtained from the pale yellow jade slip.
In fact, they are essentially the same, they are all transformed by spiritual power, but Chi Shui always feels that the dragon conjured by the spiritual power in the fire spirit bead is different, as if it has spirituality.
She had asked Dome, and Dome had told her that it was not a machine spirit.
At that time, she was not disappointed, the Cangzhou Continent was already short of resources, the spiritual energy was declining, and those spiritual objects were very few. Speaking of which, she has also traveled a lot, and she hasn't seen a single machine spirit?
Chi Shui shook his head, and found that this composite array was mainly a large phantom array, using countless small attack arrays and small-area teleportation arrays.
Just now, she had obviously touched the small-distance teleportation array, and it had been replaced, and the piece of jade that she had taken a fancy to before had now become a small point, like a star, hanging in the distance.
She was not annoyed, and after knowing what was going on, she began to study the changes and trends of this magic circle, and occasionally walked around according to certain regulations, and occasionally encountered the attack of the magic circle, but was also blocked by the dragon.
In this way, after going around and around for a few laps, she finally came to a piece of jade slip, which was not the piece of jade slip she had locked before.
Chi Shui stretched out his hand and wanted to take the jade slip off, but found that it didn't work, which was different from the first floor. Take down the jade slip on the first floor and read it, and then put it back.
Needless to say, the jade here must be extremely precious, and maybe the Lan family only has one piece, so this setting was made, for fear of being taken away
She probed her spiritual sense into the jade slip, and after reading the beginning, she understood that this was the experience of a Lan family ancestor in refining the formation, and if she could put it here, she must be an outstanding refining master. She looked at it patiently, although this refining array ancestor did not ascend, but he was also a cultivator in the late stage of the Yuan Infant, and his experience in refining the formation was obvious.
Looking at the red water, I stopped from time to time to think about it, and I seemed to have an understanding.
This refining array ancestor also seems to have a lot of teaching experience, and the explanations in it inspire Chishui from time to time, divergent thinking, and even figured out a lot of joints at once.
You must know that although the afterimage master explained the seclusion, Chi Shui did not stay by his side for a long time, and the later experience was all explored by Chi Shui himself, so naturally there would be some ambiguity or uncertainty. Although she occasionally exchanged experiences with Jian Yan, there were not many times when she could really benefit. Most of the time, it's she's instructing Jane.
I don't know how much time has passed, but Chishui finally finished reading it. She didn't fully understand, there were some things she still had to ponder, but now, it was time for her to go.
She glanced at the piece of jade reluctantly, and finally turned to leave.
In such a treasure trove, time is money, and if there is any setting in it, such as how much time will be automatically teleported out, then she will definitely regret it in the future.
Chi Shui speculated as he walked, and the disciples of the Lan family who entered the second floor probably couldn't finish reading all the jade slips, and I was afraid that it would depend on their understanding of the magic circle, and how much they could find was all up to their own ability.
Although she knows something about the circle, it is not unimpeded. Those short-range teleportation arrays were silent, and if she wasn't looking, she would be teleported to another strange corner, and all kinds of calculations would have to start from scratch.
The designer of this magic circle is really clever, and has fully analyzed the subconscious reactions of human beings in the face of various crises, that is, Chishui, at the beginning, he often fell into his way, so that the previous efforts were in vain.
Naturally, she won't be like this all the time, every time she goes to the Tao, she adjusts herself once, the same mistake, if she makes it a second time, she won't forgive herself.
She also realized that these traps may also have the good intentions of the Lan family's ancestors.
It is not for nothing that the Lan family can become such a powerful family. This is inseparable from the unremitting efforts of their ancestors.
In this way, walking forward, Chishui has also seen nearly ten pieces of jade slips, several of which are actually explaining the magic circle newly researched by the Lan family, its conception is so ingenious, all the surrounding elements are used thoroughly, and Chishui also has a sense of brightness when he sees it.
The other few pieces are very ordinary for Chishui, one talks about the detailed operation of spells, the other tells about the deeds of the outstanding ancestors of the Lan family, and the other tells about the details of the materials of the refining array, which she has seen from the afterimage master.
It can be seen that those who can enter here must be the disciples of the Lan family who are extremely proficient in the magic circle, and it is no wonder that this Qiongyu Pagoda is so mysterious.
Chi Shui speculated that those who went out from here would definitely become the core disciples of the Lan family's inner hall.
It is no wonder that the Lan family pays so much attention to the talent of their disciples for the magic circle. A disciple like Second Uncle Ancestor, no matter how high and strong his talent is in other aspects, he will be inferior to the core disciple, and he can only become a tool for the Lan family to take advantage of.
Chi Shui also understood why the second uncle was such an extraordinary person, why he would not be visible in the family, and he must be able to guess the consequences, right?
Chi Shui sighed alone, thinking that this was someone else's business and had nothing to do with her, so he just turned his eyes at random, but he was stunned and stopped.
In front of her, there was a black door, the tower gate on the same floor was very similar, and the whole façade was carved with some patterns of flowing clouds in a simple technique.
Chi Shui knew that it was a carved pattern, but he still felt that the flowing clouds on it were moving slowly, as if a wind was blowing.
This door is not ordinary
She should have decided, but now the key is, whether she wants to enter this door or not?
Inside the door, she didn't know what was going on, but outside the door, there were still a lot of treasures waiting for her to dig up?
At this point, she was a little entangled.
Inside the door, there may be unknown dangers, and maybe there are even greater treasures? Otherwise, why would the ancestors of the Lan family deliberately make such a door?
After hundreds of years of practice, Chi Shui is no longer a timid person, and she knows that if she is timid, she will achieve nothing.
Since you have come here, from the perspective of cultivation, it is also an opportunity, so let's break it
Chishui looked at the door again and found that there was no circular groove on the door, so why should he go in? She tentatively touched the psychic sense to the door, only to be surprised to find that the psychic sense had reached in.
This door is a shadow.
Her face was extremely solemn, and after weighing it again and again, she finally went to the door.
If she doesn't enter this door, I'm afraid that this door will become her inner demon, and her cultivation will definitely stop, and her hundreds of years of hard work will be ruined.
Every hair on her body seemed to stand on end as she stepped through the door, and she seemed to have started an extremely important ritual.
When she saw where she was, even the well-informed her face was full of horror, and her body trembled unspeakably.
At this moment, she was standing in the center of an altar, and at her feet, there were nine grooves that stretched at different angles into the distance, and there were nine black stone pillars for sacrifice.
The lines on the stone pillar are somewhat similar to the stone pillar during the exorcism war on the Cangzhou Continent more than a hundred years ago.
How could this not frighten her?
That time was with so many high-level cultivators in the Cangzhou Continent, and this time, she was the only one.
Moreover, she only now realized that she could not move at all.
Could it be that today, she is going to become a sacrifice on the altar of the Lan family's yin evil? She broke out in a cold sweat all over her body.
At this moment, the entire altar was activated, and Chi Shui heard some humming whispers around her, which came into her ears one after another, and she didn't understand the meaning at all.
Around her, with the whispering sound, a suction force formed from her feet, acting on her body.
The whispering sound became faster and faster, and the suction force became stronger and stronger, and Chi Shui even felt that the suction wanted to suck her whole body dry.
She struggled to wrap all her spiritual power around her body, desperately resisting the force and not letting it succeed.
The altar seemed to not stop until it had reached its goal, and the low chanting was even more extreme than that, and the whole ground trembled lightly.
What to do?
Chishui was so anxious that he died here in vain? She won't be blind when she's a ghost.
But she has only one strength, where can she compete with this powerful altar?
Even if she could find a way to crack it, she didn't have enough time, and her spiritual power, under such a powerful suction, couldn't last long.
Time passed little by little, and Chi Shui didn't have time to think about how long she had been holding on, she only knew that her protective film was getting thinner and thinner, and that spiritual power was already able to penetrate and act directly on the surface of her body.
I saw that her body that had been refined by spiritual power was already trembling, and some blood spots began to appear on the surface of her skin, and those blood spots became bigger and bigger, slowly turning into small blood beads.
Seeing that those blood beads were about to break away from his body and fall down, Chi Shui was terrified, and instantly increased the strength of the protective film, blocking the suction from the outside.
Those little blood beads didn't move, but there was not much spiritual power left in Chishui's body, and she gasped for two breaths, and while breathing a sigh of relief, she was a little desperate.
If she could, she really wanted to use the magic weapon to destroy the nine sacrificial pillars in the distance, and the sound came from the sacrificial pillars. But the pillar was far enough for her to reach.
She also contacted Xiaobai, who was cultivating diligently, but Xiaobai couldn't come out at all.
By this time, the whispering had become louder and louder, and occasionally there was a whimper, as if the ghost of the place was crying to her, and her hairs stood on end and her heart trembled.
Chi Shui felt that his body and mind had been greatly damaged, and he looked at the groove on the altar, and hated to think, don't you want to suck blood? I'll let you suck.
When she rolled back from the ring, the blood she had drawn from Lan Xuan was still hot, because of the effect of the ring.
She poured down the porcelain bottle containing blood, and said with hatred in her heart: This is the blood of your Lan family's descendants, you can suck it
Then she saw the blood congealed into a ball and fell between her feet, and after a few breaths, it condensed into nine threads of blood as thin as a hair, and ran along the nine grooves to the nine pillars of sacrifice.
It seems that because of this, the whispering has become a little quieter.
Chishui stared intently at those sacrificial pillars, and saw that as soon as the nine blood lines touched the sacrificial pillars, the sacrificial pillars emitted a dazzling red light and soared into the sky.
Chi Shui also felt a spiritual power enveloping her, and by the time she looked at it, she had been teleported into a room.
Chi Shui's body loosened, and he slumped to the ground, wiping the sweat on his forehead with a wave of his sleeves, scared her to death, it turned out to be a bloodline certification array, she still thought it was a sacrificial array?
Who asked the ancestors of the Lan family to make this magic circle the same as the sacrificial magic circle? She didn't know in advance, where could she think through it at once.
After breathing for a long time, he took out a high-grade spirit stone to supplement his spiritual power, and then looked around.
With just one glance, she was so shocked that she immediately jumped up, the half-circle jade slip, the second half of the jade slip that she couldn't ask for, was not on Lan Yu's body, but here.
Such a surprise smashed down after she had just escaped death, making her, who had always been calm, unable to help laughing wildly.
If the two people of the Lan family knew that she had come here and read the half-circle jade slip, the expressions on their faces would definitely be extremely exciting, and thinking of this, she burst into laughter again.
For a long time, she stopped when she felt that her throat was a little unbearable, but from time to time there was still an uncontrollable low laugh overflowing, and her face, which was originally pale from blood loss, also showed a touch of redness.
It was only then that she saw that there was a square jade slip side by side with the semi-circular jade slip, which looked very ordinary.
Without hesitation, Chi Shui rushed to the semi-circular jade slip and read it, and suddenly, her consciousness seemed to have entered a chaotic space, and then the heavens and the earth gradually separated, and various rules came into being, and some people who were extremely sensitive to this applied these rules to make the initial magic circle. These magic circles have a variety of abilities, either offensive or defensive, and some alchemists with high talent in refining have applied those rules to the extreme, and the magic circles they have refined have the ability to destroy the heavens and the earth.
For a time, the Array Refiner became the target of the major families. As a result, those Array Refiners were treated extremely highly, and they began to enjoy a comfortable and luxurious life. But they didn't know that a catastrophe was coming against them very quickly.
The magic circle they have refined is very powerful, it does not mean that they are very strong in themselves, in fact, although their cultivation is high, their combat strength is not strong, and their bodies are even weaker, plus some of the formation refiners who are surrounded by big forces are a little greedy for pleasure, they are flattered to be proud and complacent, and they are no longer steadfast in their pursuit, and they are helpless in the face of disasters specifically aimed at them.
The maker of the jade slip did not mention the details of the battle, only explaining the results later. In that battle, all the high-level array refiners fell, that is, the middle-level array refiners, and most of them also fell, and only some low-level array refiners who were not threatening were spared from the chaos.
Chi Shui could tell from his description that the maker of this jade slip must be a high-level array refiner, and he had the pride and momentum of being a high-level array refiner.
I don't know how he escaped the big battle. However, she could guess that at that time, the rise of the profession of Array Refiner would threaten the entire superstructure of the cultivation realm, and how could those high-ranking immortals allow such a threat to their existence, they must be dealt with. I believe that after that war, the later refining materials must have also strengthened their control.
Thinking about it from her perspective, if such a group of people appeared in front of her who could kill her at any time, she might also take such measures.
It really doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, and there are different positions and different views.
Chi Shui continued to look down, and saw the name of a magic circle appear in front of her, it was actually the ancient thunder array that she was very familiar with, she looked at it again, she seemed to have turned into a trace of spiritual power, and with those rules, it was condensed into a magic circle, and then, her power was fully mobilized, and with the magic circle activated.
In an instant, the powerful power seemed to be able to shake the heavens and the earth, and the coercion of the dark clouds was even better than the monk in the late Yuan Infant period, she was like a person trapped in the Dharma position, bearing its powerful attack and experiencing the mystery of the operation of the Dharma array.
Those lightning and thunder strikes seemed to really attack her, endlessly......
Chishui forcibly withdrew her spiritual sense, holding her hands to her chest, where her heart was pounding wildly.
Oh my God, this is the senior's perception of refining the formation, this is the refining master...
