Chapter 60: The Ruins of Kunlun
According to Qibao, the secret place they found was near the Kunlun Mountains, built by some Qin Dynasty warlocks, and in his own opinion, there was a good chance that it still had the official background of the Qin Dynasty.
"You don't know how big it is, there is a big square underground, much bigger than a football field, and there are more than a dozen jade coffins in it, but most of them have turned powdered." Qibao said, recalling this, his fingers twisted lightly twice: "It will be powdered when you touch it with your hands, and I don't know what the reason is, Master Shen said that those jade coffins are all waste, and they are useless." ”
"Kunlun Mountain...... I muttered ........ underground square and nodded: "Kunlun Mountain seems to have always been quite mysterious, and the old man originally told me that many ancient religious relics have appeared there. ”
"What are those jade coffins for?" Chen Qiuyan asked curiously.
Qibao laughed, his face full of excitement, as if he had picked up money on the street, and the corners of his mouth were grinning.
"Refining Immortals."
In Shippo's description, I probably have an idea of the underground plaza and the jade coffins.
It seems that the old man and Miao Wuren have long seen that the so-called underground square is actually a super-large array, and the dozen or so jade coffins are the eyes of the array, and they are also a few points where the gust qi gathers.
"You know what? Those jade coffins look awesome! Qibao said to me with his shoulders on his back, his face full of excitement: "There is a bottomless pit under each jade coffin, the hole is slightly larger than the coffin, and the bottom is not visible at all, but I can hear the sound of something moving, I don't know if it's a snake or what, it sounds like Suo Suo's ......."
"A bottomless pit underneath the coffin?" I was stunned for a moment, and asked curiously, "Did you move the jade coffin away and study it?" ”
"Move out of the way." Qibao said with a smile: "Those coffins are so heavy that the four of us moved them together, and we couldn't move them even when our teeth were almost crushed." ”
As soon as the words fell, Qibao raised his hand and gestured with me, his face full of amazement.
"The coffins were hanging in the air, as if they could fly, floating over those holes."
"Holy shit." I was surprised: "These ancients played high-end enough, and the coffins all had to be magnetized?" ”
"Of those coffins, only three were lying bodies, the others were empty." Qibao sighed: "I don't know how those three people died, anyway, they all turned into white bones, and they can't get up from the corpse, just like ordinary corpses." ”
"Bottomless pit....... The jade coffin ......." I murmured, "Did you crawl into the coffin and lie down?" ”
"How do you know?!" Shippo looked at me with wide eyes: "Someone told you??" ”
I shook my head and said no, just a rough guess and analysis.
If, according to Qibao, this giant array is used to refine immortals, then it is very likely that immortal refining refers to refining living people into immortals.
The underground square is the array, and the jade coffin is the eye of the array, and those bottomless pits are so deep that they can be connected to the leylines nine times out of ten.......
With the power of the leylines, the qi of thousands of miles of mountains, rivers and mountains can be used to transform the body....... This kind of bias has not happened in history, but in all records, such methods will end in failure.
Either the borrowed gas is not enough, or the gas is too much, and the living person is directly burst.
But it is undeniable that in the similar records I have seen, there is no scale of immortal refining that can be larger than this, and the largest one is far from this comparison.
"It's risky." I frowned and said, "Using external forces to transform one's own physical body is originally a means of pulling out seedlings and fueling human beings, forcibly allowing human beings to enter another level of life...... It's very risky. ”
As soon as the words fell, I looked at Shippo curiously.
"How the hell did you get through it?"
The level of life is fixed from the beginning, although there are many cultivation methods in later generations that can forcibly bring human life to a higher level........
Or become an immortal, or become a Buddha.
All in all, being able to have great supernatural powers and surpass the limits of the human physical body represents a leap in the level of life.
It is good to encounter such a thing, but there are also risks, just like when I accept the power of those ancient people or those who have a sand body, when is there no risk?
"At that time, the fat man and I didn't know what those coffins were for, and Master Shen and Senior Miao only knew a rough idea, but no one dared to mess around." Qibao smiled bitterly: "But the situation is unforgiving......."
"The situation is unforgiving?" I frowned, "Are you in other trouble?" ”
"Lizard."
Qibao said, with some fear on his face, and re-lit a cigarette and smoked slowly.
"From the moment we entered the mountain, we let a lizard be targeted, it looks like a Komodo dragon, but it is much larger than that, at least twenty meters ........" Qibao said while trembling slightly: "That thing is not an ordinary creature, invulnerability is the most basic, it is not even afraid of various techniques, subjugation, Gu magic, and Taoist things, it can't solve it with anything........"
As soon as the words fell, Qibao laughed twice, saying that the situation is not so bad, there is no endless road, and our luck is not bad.
"Just as we were about to be caught up by the lizard, the ground suddenly sank, and none of us were left behind, and we all fell into the underground square." Shippo said, "But the lizard didn't chase after it, it seemed to be a little resistant to that square, so it gave us this respite." ”
"So do you say it....... That lizard is very powerful......." I muttered, "There is such a powerful thing in Kunlun Mountain....... It's not ........ strange."
"That lizard is not only invulnerable, but also crawls very fast, almost catching up with us running at full speed, and the saliva coming out of its mouth is highly poisonous, looking like sulfuric acid, it seems to be corrosive." Qibao sighed: "The fat man just accidentally got a little bit on his arm, and as a result, his skin was rotten immediately, if it wasn't for the timely rescue of Senior Miao, the fat man's arm couldn't be saved." ”
As he spoke, Shippo shook off the ashes of his cigarette.
"At that time, we didn't have a way to go, either we just carried it inside, and when the monitor lizard left, we would withdraw again, or we had to think of other ways......." Qibao said helplessly: "The dry food and water we brought were a small amount, and we couldn't make trouble for a day at most, and the monitor lizard was a special thief, so he squatted at the exit to guard us, and he didn't come in or leave, so we had to take risks." ”
According to Qibao, what the monitor lizard repels is not the square, but the strange powers under the square, at the eye of the array.
As far as they were concerned, it was basically impossible to deal with monitor lizards, and they were immune to all physical damage, and they didn't use magic very much......
"At the beginning, the only person who wanted to take the risk was Master Shen, and he said that he had seen it all, and the big deal was death, who wouldn't break the jar?" Qibao smiled bitterly: "Seeing that he is going to drill into the jade coffin, we are not at ease, but no one can persuade him, so we can only watch him go in." ”
"Later, I also went in with the fat man, and I thought about it, if Master Shen risked dying, and we wouldn't have a chance to get out alive, then it would be better to fight, than to fall into the lizard's mouth and be chewed to death, right?"
"Senior Miao didn't go in?" I asked.
"No, he said that there should be a guard outside, and everyone will take care of any situation." Qibao said with a smile: "After we came out, Senior Miao went in, and none of the four people were left behind, all of them transformed into flesh and entered another realm......
Qibao said as he slowly raised his hand and looked at his palm.
"Actually, refining immortals is a bit exaggerated, at least I don't think I'm an immortal, but I'm a little stronger than a living person......."
At this time, Qibao also sighed, shook his head and said.
"We thought that Master Shen's legs would get better, at least there would be some improvement, but the fact is still very bad, the old man's legs have not improved, but the rest of the body has changed."
"That's why we're going to come to Tibet to give it a fight, we just want to try to treat the old man's leg, if it's cured, it's the best, if it's not cured, it's ........."
Qibao shook his head, his expression very helpless.
"We don't know what to do anymore, maybe the old man will be very disappointed."
