Chapter 12: Entering the Battle
"Miss doesn't know, this Taiyi Dao Palace, the first generation of people who created the palace, is not only the top power of our human race, but also the famous foreign race, his strength is all over the sky, and no one in the world can suppress him. However, there is no successor, which led to the decline of Taiyi Dao Palace from generation to generation, and it has only reached the point where it is today. ”
"But the foundation of Taiyi Dao Palace is definitely not like this, it can't be as simple as it seems, it must not be underestimated, maybe one or two old monsters will come out at any time, after all, the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff."
The old woman said slowly.
"The person who created the palace is the one that my father has said many times, the person called Sanqing Ancestor!"
"Yes, that's the man." The old woman said.
"No one knows whether this person will ascend in the end, but everyone knows that this person's inheritance Dao system has been left in the Taiyi Dao Palace, and for thousands of years, only those who are destined to inherit his mantle from generation to generation."
"Calculating the time, the Cave Heaven Blessed Land of Taiyi Dao Palace should be opened in a few years, so this is also the purpose of the sect master to send the young lady here, hoping that the young lady can obtain the mantle inheritance of the Sanqing ancestor."
"Cut, isn't it just a good old man, there are more in the family." The plain-clothed girl pursed her lips and said a little unhappily.
"Miss must not think like this, not to mention the person's own strength, even if it is his magic power, if Miss can obtain one and a half moves, it will be the greatest contribution to the family."
"According to the past practice, many people should come here this time, because other families and sects have not given up after so many years, and they all want to obtain the inheritance of the Sanqing Ancestor, which can also be seen that other forces are greedy for this, so you must not be blindly arrogant."
"Yes, mother-in-law!" The girl pouted and hugged one of the old woman's arms to be coquettish.
"Then mother-in-law, why do you say that the ancestor of Sanqing is so powerful, this Taiyi Dao Palace does not close the door and slowly excavates the inheritance he left behind, but allows us outsiders to intervene." The girl turned to continue.
Hearing this, the old woman's eyes showed a look of approval, and she secretly said that she could be so smart at a young age, and then patiently explained:
"That's because the strength of the Taiyi Dao Palace has declined, even if you want to resist, you have more than enough strength, and its strength can't be compared with other families and sects at all, it's more than a step lower, not to mention the joint pressure of other family sects. Therefore, no matter how unwilling Taiyi Dao Palace is, it can only turn a blind eye. ”
"I see." The girl nodded, as if she understood.
"Miss, as long as you remember that you can't practice too fast in the past few years, try to suppress your cultivation as much as possible, and you won't be able to break through the foundation building period until the Cave Heaven Blessed Land is opened."
"Why is that?" The girl asked.
"Because that cave blessed land is in an irregular small space on the verge of shattering, it was originally the inner palace of the Taiyi Dao Palace, which was held by a formation, but with the passage of time, the formation was too large, except for the Sanqing Ancestor, no one could preside over it, and it began to slowly disintegrate. Therefore, if the strength exceeds the foundation building period, its magic is quite powerful, and it is easy to accelerate the shattering of that space, and when the time comes, not only will the inheritance not be obtained, but even its own life will be difficult to protect. The old woman said.
"Boring, alright." The girl's head drooped, apparently not what she thought.
"Don't worry, everyone who came this time, including the Immortal Transformation Sect, as well as the Brahmins, and other family forces, will not break through the foundation building period, in order to be able to enter the Cave Heaven Blessed Land to obtain the inheritance."
"And with Miss's talent, it is also these people who need to be paid attention to, and a fight is indispensable when the time comes."
"After Miss enters the Taiyi Dao Palace, your aunt will pick you up, and these old people will also wait for Miss to hear good news in this city, I hope that Miss will work hard for the family, and not let the patriarch and the family down."
"Yes, mother-in-law!" The girl stretched out her voice, obviously dissatisfied, but helpless.
"Miss, rest early, according to the news, this time those people from the family sect should have already entered the Taiyi Dao Palace, and the old man insisted that Miss and those ordinary people enter from this formation of the Taiyi Dao Palace, which is also a kind of sharpening for the Miss."
"Knowing my mother-in-law, I will get up at the beginning of the month, you are here waiting for my good news, and when the time comes, I must bring back the mantle inheritance of the old man of Sanqing and put it in front of you."
Hearing this, the old woman touched the girl's head dotingly, and then the two turned around and went back to the guest room to rest.
……
In the lobby on the first floor, it was still unusually noisy at this time.
"What is that formation, how do you get in, and what's going on inside?"
"That's right, old man, you have to make it clear."
Everyone was in an uproar, and the old storyteller smiled again at this time.
Everyone in the audience didn't know that this old man was asking for money again, but fortunately, many of the people present were rich masters, and they smashed handfuls of broken silver into it.
Looking at the more and more silver under the feet of the old storyteller, Dongfang Mo's eyelids twitched, and his heart still underestimated this old storyteller, sure enough, Jiang is old and spicy, and this short time will be worth the harvest of the first half of his life.
Seeing that there was a lot of silver in the account, the old storyteller continued:
"You just need to get to the valley and follow the path under your feet, and then you will pass it, and then you will turn back into the distance and go around, and it will be as simple as that."
"You'll have to tell me what's going on there." The crowd asked.
"This little old man really doesn't know." The old storyteller shook his head.
"That's not right, old man, you're close to the water, I don't believe you really haven't gone on such a journey."
At this time, the disdain in Dongfang Mo's eyes was not disguised, it was really like what this old storyteller said, if he entered that formation, he would be spared if he was not qualified, if he was really qualified, it would be the blessing of his ancestors for eight lifetimes, and he would not lose anything, this old storyteller was obviously unwilling to say it.
"That's right, you have to do things with money."
"Old man, you just want silver, Lao Tzu has a lot of money here, take it to buy medicine and drink."
At this time, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old man who looked like a boy and brother sat down, with a look of disdain, took out no less than ten taels of silver from his arms, and threw it at the old storyteller.
When the old storyteller heard Dongfang Mo's words, his old face turned red at first, but when he saw a dozen taels of silver flying in, the embarrassment in his eyes was swept away, and he didn't care about the words that hurt the morality of the son's brother, and said:
"Ahem...... It's not a secret, the little old man also went to try it back then, and it was a fog when he walked into the formation, and the little old man turned around and turned around in it, and finally saw a way out after turning for most of the day, and walked out along the way out, and found that he actually walked outside the formation. Hey, the little old man is destined to have no chance with the fairy road. ”
Hearing the old storyteller's words, everyone sat down stupidly, at least knowing that it would be a fog when they went in, and it was not a big deal, just if they couldn't get in or out.
Dongfang Mo finally knew the general situation, and his heart was a little more steady, and after he was full of wine and food, he and Xing Wu asked for two guest rooms and went to rest separately. Just wait for the beginning of the month in a few days to enter that formation.
……
A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and this day was the first day of the full lunar month, and Dongfang Mo and Xing Wu got up early. When the two of them stepped out of the inn, they saw that the endless stream of people on the streets of the city were all heading in one direction.
The crowd was varied, but most of them were children in their early teens, and some were young people in their twenties. All of them rushed towards the depths of the city, and the direction was the two towering Oxhorn Mountains.
Dongfang Mo and the two glanced at each other, and slowly set off in the direction of Niujiao Mountain with the crowd.
Because the two of them came late, they only arrived at the foot of the two Oxhorn Mountains when it was almost noon.
When I got here, I could only see a valley in front of me, and on both sides of the valley were steep cliffs, and I thought it should be the two towering Oxhorn Mountains.
The valley was ten zhang wide, but it was bottomless, and the white mist in it made it impossible to see what was happening.
But at this moment, the crowd walked into the valley and disappeared into the mist, with no intention of staying.
When Dongfang Mo and Xing Wu arrived, the two glanced at each other, nodded at the same time, and stepped into the valley without hesitation.
……
The moment Dongfang Mo stepped into the valley, the noisy voices around him seemed to become smaller, looking at Xing Wu, who had entered the valley first, he was actually dozens of feet away from him at this moment.
Dongfang Mo was just about to take a step forward to beckon the two of them to move forward together, but he saw Xing Wu walking forward, and disappeared into the white mist in a few steps.
"Brother Xing!"
Dongfang Mo shouted, but he didn't get the slightest response.
Seeing this scene, Dongfang Mo's eyes were even more puzzled. So he took a few steps inward at random, but he didn't expect that it was only a few steps away, but the slightly noisy sound around him disappeared completely, and it seemed unusually quiet, as if a needle could be heard.
Seeing this, Dongfang Mo secretly said in his heart that this was indeed the case, it was very likely that he and the others were at this time, as the old storyteller said, it was a formation.
This formation seems to the outside world that this valley is ten zhang wide, but in fact, this valley is more than ten zhang, I am afraid that it is more than a hundred zhang, otherwise so many people crowded in together, not to mention shoulder to shoulder, but it must be a noise.
Presumably, the situation encountered by others should be the same as his own, so Dongfang Mo was not worried, as if he was taking a leisurely walk, and slowly walked inside.
……
Just when a large number of people continued to pour in the valley, on a platform halfway up the mountain in the depths of Niujiao Mountain, many people were gathering here at this moment, quietly looking at the smooth mirror-like stone in front of them.
On the smooth stone mirror, there are pictures one after another, and if you look closely, it is the scene in the valley, but there is no layer of fog on this smooth stone face, so that people can see clearly.
Next to this stone mirror, there are two people at the head, one of whom is in a cyan Taoist robe, holding a dust whisk, and he is an old Taoist priest who is more than half a hundred. The old Taoist priest had a solemn expression and sharp eyes, especially the three green steel swords with the scabbard inserted into the scabbard behind his back and only the hilt exposed, which was particularly eye-catching.
On the side of the old Taoist priest, there was a Taoist girl in a yellow Taoist robe. That aunt is about thirty years old and has an ordinary appearance. An emerald green gourd on his waist, a hosta on his head, and a long sword less than two fingers wide on his back.
Behind the two of them, there were men and women, and several people stood respectfully, looking at them, all of them were Taoist priests in Taoist robes.
"Elder Zhong has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, let's talk about it directly."
At this time, the old Taoist priest slowly spoke to the Taoist aunt beside him, but his words seemed a little stiff.
"Elder Jiechen doesn't have to be careful, Poor Dao just came here to take a look at random, after all, good seedlings will emerge all these years." Dao Gu, who was called the head of the Zhong Courtyard, replied with a slight smile.
"Let's see if it's true, I'm afraid it's your niece." Hearing this, the old Taoist priest known as the Absolute Dust Elder looked even more old-fashioned, obviously a little dissatisfied with this.
Elder Zhong snorted, knowing the strange temper of this Peerless Elder, and immediately kept silent, obviously acquiescing in this matter.
Seeing this, Elder Jiechen snorted coldly, and also stopped talking, but instead looked intently at the scenes in the stone mirror in front of him.
