Chapter 30: The Visitor
The golden sun rises over the horizon, spreading ten thousand rays of sunlight through the forest, birdsong begins to sound in the forest, and animals crawl out of their nests and start a day of hunting.
In the endless green forest, fierce winds rage and never stop, so few birds fly to this height.
A figure flew over the top of the forest, followed by ten, a hundred, a team of hundreds of people, dressed in uniform clothes, holding long knives, under the traction of the untold force, flying together above the forest sea.
The person at the head is an old man with a kind face, with white hair tied behind him, a three-foot white beard hanging down his chest, and a smile on his face, which is exactly the demeanor of a fairy Taoist.
I saw him carrying his hands behind his back, quickly skimming through the air, looking around from time to time, as if looking for something.
The old man raised his hand slightly, and the entire team stopped in the air in an instant, without the slightest superfluous movement, and the order was forbidden, quite with the solemn momentum of an army.
Beneath them was a clearing, and in the middle was a slightly raised bag of earth, covered with countless vines and plants, lush and lush.
The old man led the team to fall here, as if to say something to the people behind him, but the people behind him nodded slightly, and ordered to go down, and hundreds of people shot out in all directions, and disappeared into the jungle in an instant.
The old man was left alone, and he seemed to stare at the dirt bag in front of him with great interest for a while, and then circled it several times. The smile on his face grew brighter and brighter, as if he had discovered something terrible.
He stretched out his hand in the air, as if holding something in his hand, and suddenly, a strong wind hung in the clearing, and the wind howled, stirring up the sand and plants all over the ground.
An object flew out of the dirt bag and landed in the old man's hand, and the inexplicable wind stopped.
Under the old man's smiling gaze, the object in his hand suddenly moved a few times, and on the shell of what seemed to be gray stone, a head came out, this was actually a turtle, it saw the old man holding it, seemed to be frightened, and retracted its head.
The old man smiled and suddenly put the turtle in his hand into his mouth.
The stone-like shell didn't hold out for even half a moment under the old man's teeth, and was bitten into scum in an instant. A creaking sound came from the old man's mouth, and there was an extremely low howl, which seemed to be the desperate cry of a turtle.
After a while, the whole turtle with the meat in the shell was chewed alive by the old man, and he raised his hand to wipe the blood on his mouth, and the old man once again returned to his original kind look.
The whole clearing began to shake, and countless insects and rats that lived here came out of the soil and ran away in terror. It seemed as if something was about to emerge from the earth, and the thick vines crumbled into two sections under the force.
Rumble!
The dirt bag exploded, and a gray thing came out of the dirt and floated in the air, what appeared to be a huge stone.
The old man stretched out his palm, and saw that it became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a small square stone, which fell on the old man's hand.
This is a square seal, just above, the pen is steeply engraved with the word "sky", but the square seal is covered with large and small gaps, which looks tattered.
The old man's hand trembled a little, and he lifted the square seal in his hand, and finally let out a laugh of joy.
"Hahahaha, it's really lucky, I can't imagine that I can pick up such a treasure casually, hahahaha!" The old man's voice was quite sharp, and from the outside, he couldn't believe that he would make such a sound.
"Could this be the 'Cangtian Seal', the treasure of the 'Songyun Temple' that has been missing for thousands of years?" asked a white-robed scholar, who was in charge of this team of 100 people, and had returned at some point, standing behind the old man.
"I was so lucky that I came across such a treasure. At that time, Yunhe Zhenren brought this treasure to compete for the true scriptures, and finally the human treasure was lost, and Songyunguan had sent many people in secret in order to find Yunhe Zhenren over the years. Who would have thought that this big pie would end up on my head!
"Ancestor Dao is prosperous!" the scholar complimented him repeatedly.
This old man played with the Heavenly Seal in his hand, who would have thought that such an unsightly lump of earth would actually be the treasure of the Mighty Earthquake Cultivation Realm back then!
The old man was very excited, and he couldn't help nodding: "Those old immortals are afraid of this and that, and they also say that this star is unlucky, I'm sorry! If you don't come, how can you find such a treasure." ”
The white-robed scholar lowered his head slightly, this kind of words were not something he could take casually.
I saw that the scholar's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said: "Old Ancestor Gong participated in the creation of the world, and he was able to find the true spirit incarnation of this treasure in the vast forest sea, and it is natural to get this treasure." ”
"Hmph!" the old man sneered and said: "Back then, in order to compete for the Impermanence Heart Sutra, all the gods and immortals gathered in this star and went on a killing spree, and countless geniuses and heroes fell here, and countless magic treasures were also left behind. It's just that because of the great changes that took place, everyone had to leave this star, and although most of the relics were taken away, there were still many people who were missing with treasures. ”
"It's not just these things, when collecting the relics of various sects, someone actually discovered immortal treasures that had never appeared in the cultivation realm before! The Seven Treasures Ruyi of Jiuyang Sect, the Sunset Aya of Meishan Sword Pavilion, and the Giant Spirit Hammer of Yanyu Tower were all discovered at that time, and I don't know how much virtue their ancestors had accumulated in their previous lives to be able to pick up such a big bargain here. ”
The scholar's eyes widened on the side, but he didn't dare to show that there was an immortal treasure hidden in this star! How could he have had the opportunity to know such a secret thing in the past, he just echoed in surprise: "No wonder these sects can be ranked among the four major immortal sects. ”
"Hahahaha!" the old man suddenly laughed loudly, and his voice was so loud that the surrounding woods shook.
"The four major sects of bullshit, if it weren't for the family master who hurriedly issued the order to retreat at that time, our Ning family would have to snatch one or two of these treasures, how could it be the turn of these sects to grow up and dare to be the leader of the ranks with us?"
The old man laughed for a while, then suddenly looked at the white-robed scholar playfully, and said, "You have been inquiring about things here recently, do you really think I don't know?"
The scholar broke out in a cold sweat, and after listening to the old man's words, he almost lost his soul, fell to his knees, and said tremblingly: "Ancestor spare his life, his subordinates just heard that they are going to come here to perform a mission in the near future, so they inquired about some more things, please forgive Ancestor!"
The old man said disdainfully: "Hmph, do you think I care that you know these things? This is originally a secret that all sects and sects know, and they let a large number of low-level monks come here every year to hunt for treasures, although most of them have not returned, but even if they can bring a magic weapon back, it is enough to make up for the previous loss." Because of this, the major forces have joined forces to block the road to this star, making it a forbidden starry sky, and every once in a while, sending some people to hunt for treasure. ”
"It's just that if you want to seek treasures, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, even if you can happen to encounter these magic weapons, you can't break through the fifty tricks, you haven't become a true spirit realm, you can't find the true spirit incarnation of these magic weapons, and you can't get these magic weapons at all. ”
"Then why don't you send some powerful people here?" the scholar finally couldn't help but ask.
The old man frowned slightly, as if he remembered something terrible, "Do you really think that there are no powerful monks here?" Two hundred and forty years ago, the eighteen living Buddha monks of Lanruo Temple came here with three thousand monks, and when they left, the momentum was monstrous, and in the end only half of them came back!"
"Half a man?"
"That's right, the three thousand monks who have cultivated to more than 100 points have all been wiped out, and seventeen of the eighteen living Buddhas have died, leaving only one living Buddha who has returned with half a physical body. After the half-body Buddha came back, he didn't say a word about what happened here, and plunged into the stupa and returned three days later. The old man's brow furrowed, as if he remembered the horror of that time.
"No wonder some people say that Lanruo Temple was also a big faction in the Immortal Sect a hundred years ago, but then I don't know why it declined, it turned out to be because of this?"
"Yes, since then, all the sects have agreed on this information, monks above the hundred knack will die, and only monks who cultivate below this can have a glimmer of life. ”
"There are big weird and big secrets in this star, otherwise why do you think the various sects and factions that were in the middle of the war back then collected the flames of war and left from here? My qualifications are dull, and I have only mastered eighty-nine tricks in a thousand years of cultivation, and those old immortals dare not come, just let me explore the secrets of this forest!"
The old man played with the magic weapon in his hand, his eyes were deep, as if he had thought of something.
"I didn't expect such a big harvest on the first day, and hopefully it's a good sign. Some time ago, I suddenly received a message from Brother Qi, he has been missing for a thousand years, and this time he reappeared in the tracks, and I don't know what good news it will bring. ”
