Chapter 8: Shock
Inside the Xianquan Ancient Road.
Shi Tang sat on the stone steps, his face was calm, in this ancient road, although the years were passing, it was not very obvious.
In addition to meditating every day to recover his mental strength, he tried to go deeper, and he had already broken through nearly 900 stone steps.
"I don't know how far the most powerful senior brother can go?" Shi Tang said secretly, in this, compared to retreat, it is another taste.
Retreat is meditation.
Here, there is always an intrusion in the soul, and now, even if you are recovering your mental strength, you must always watch out for hallucinations to avoid going astray.
Under this difficult environment, Shi Tang's will was tempered.
If it were an ordinary disciple, I am afraid that he would have given up long ago.
Because for thousands of years, a consensus has been formed that no one can reach the end.
"Hehe, although I may not be able to reach the end, the biggest gain of this trip should be to master the secret technique - soul deterrence, right?" Shi Tang smiled slightly.
Unexpectedly, he hit the right one, but he mastered the first layer of the secret technique of Xuantian Creation Technique.
For this reason, Shi Tang was willing to stay and gritted his teeth and persisted.
Anyway, it is also cultivation here, and it is also cultivation outside, and the aura in this ancient cave is more and more abundant, and if it is used for cultivation, it is even better than the Zhantian Cave Mansion.
"Well, I'm trying it today to see if I can walk up twenty more steps at once. ”
Shi Tang was resting on the eighteenth hundredth stone step at this time, and soon came to the ninety-hundredth stone step, taking a deep breath, the lotus platform in the Mud Pill Palace became more and more obvious, and it had faintly turned into a black shape, resisting the phantom sound attack.
"Hahaha......"
"Hehehe......"
"Wow~~Wow~~"
All kinds of strange and annoying sounds came one after another, and in an instant, Shi Tang's soul roared.
The lotus platform slowly rotates and resists.
Shi Tang took a step forward, and when he landed, his body stopped, as if he had been hit hard, and then took another step forward, this time his body stopped longer, and every time he took a step, it was as if he was turning over a mountain.
"Ignorant child, suffer death!"
"Eat me with a sword!"
Shi Tang's eyes seemed to be attacking him with countless martial artists, some of them were still wearing the service of the Divine Rain Sect, and some people who were inexplicably dressed were attacking him.
"It's all fake, it's all an illusion, don't believe it!"
Shi Tang calmed down, trying not to believe in these illusions, but the illusions were so real, the sword seemed to be stabbing into his chest, and if he didn't dodge, he would die the next moment.
Shi Tang was unmoved, and after the sword pierced into his body, it disappeared, and then other weapons stabbed him.
Shi Tang just didn't believe that in the depths of this ancient road, there would be no one else, only himself.
First order.
Second.
Third order.
Fourth-Order ......
The first step went down, and in the blink of an eye, ten steps had been taken in a row, and Shi Tang's whole body was already soaked with sweat, and he was panting heavily.
The feeling of a slight breath and a sword piercing his chest is too real, if he can't hold on to the spiritual platform and remain unmoved, I'm afraid that he will start to resist the use of force a long time ago, and he will soon fall into the demons in his heart and be controlled by illusions.
Eleventh Order.
Twelfth Order.
Thirteenth Order......
Shi Tang continued to walk, but he felt as if there were countless people and horses around him rushing towards him, and there were even strange whispers affecting him, which was simply unbearable.
"Whew~ Today...... That's all for today. After reaching the ninth and twentieth steps, Shi Tang didn't dare to continue moving forward.
Falling back again.
After resting and recovering, continue to come.
After going on for several days, Shi Tang had already reached the ninth hundred and ninety-fifth step.
"I don't know...... I don't know if this stone step is the number of thirty-nine?" Shi Tang's heart moved, if so, he was already close to the end.
It's just that these four orders are already as difficult as climbing to the sky.
As soon as he stepped in, it was as if he was besieged by hundreds of masters, only to see him drenching in cold sweat, his face pale, and his body crumbling, and it took him two days to climb to the ninth hundred and ninety-eighth step.
This last stage, on the contrary, is not in a hurry.
It seems to be at his fingertips, but Shi Tang knows that he can't be careless, everything must be prepared properly, in case after these nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, there are strange things waiting for him, it will be a big trouble.
Therefore, after resting for another three or four days, I only felt that the spiritual power in the Lingtai was extremely strong, which was more than several times that when I first entered the Xianquan Ancient Road.
"For the sake of my mother, for Chen Ziying, for the sake of getting out alive, come on, Shi Tang!" Shi Tang cheered for himself, and immediately relaxed his mind and slowly marched towards the 999th step.
With a thick white mist in front of him, a rumbling sound in his soul, and countless terrifying illusions obstructing and harassing, Shi Tang couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood and took a step forward.
This step seems to drain the strength.
As soon as he stepped over and stood still, Shi Tang's body was crooked and fell forward.
I don't know how long it has been, it seems that several years have passed in the dream, and it seems to be an instant, Shi Tang felt a lot better, and woke up leisurely.
"You...... Who are you?" Suddenly, Shi Tang saw a blue elf that looked like a person but not a human, a demon beast but not a demon beast, a blue elf like a thing, about the size of a fist, sitting cross-legged on his chest, staring at himself with a pair of strange sky blue eyes, and couldn't help but be shocked.
"Yo, little one, what are you afraid of?" the elf-like thing smirked at the elf-like thing.
Shi Tang was startled, secretly said This is the Xianquan Ancient Road, how can there be other things, look carefully, suddenly, his eyes lit up, there was no thick fog around, there was a cave-like place in front of him, and there was a stone bowl-like platform in the center of the cave, in which there was a clear water-like liquid bubbling and overflowing.
"I ...... I've reached the end of the ancient road?" Shi Tang was stunned.
The liquid in the stone platform is not ...... Washing the marrow?
"Well, well, you did break through, I waited for a thousand years to wait for such a lone seedling as you, and you are really indigenous here. "The elf-like thing.
Shi Tang found that this blue elf was very extraordinary, and he couldn't sense the slightest aura from it, so he hurriedly asked, "I don't know the name of the seniors, how do you call it?"
Thinking that it is said to be thousands of years old, then when it comes to investigation, Shenyu Peak also appeared thousands of years ago, could it be that this little elf is a thousand years old?
"Well...... Well, it's okay to call me Lan Senpai. The Smurfs said.
"Senior Lan, why are you at the end of this ancient road? Could this be the mysterious spring?" Shi Tang asked respectfully.
The Smurfs were very useful, and nodded again and again: "Boy, you are very discerning, you can come here to prove that your mental strength is not weak, and you can use the spring water here at will." Well, that's not the point, you come with me, though. ”
Shi Tang was a little stunned when he heard it, the marrow washing liquid here was much clearer than that in the marrow washing pool outside, and he could feel the abundant energy when he stood in the distance.
Feel free to use it?
That's not going to be sent!
The Smurf took him to the highest part of the stone platform, pointed to a piece of jade that had been enshrined, and said, "This is the True Source Stone, I want you to refine it as soon as possible, and then take me out of here!"
"Really...... True Source Stone?...... Is there really such a thing in the world?" Shi Tang suddenly opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
