Chapter 14: The Temple of the Flood Desolation
The ancestral temple is built with heavy rocks, the vicissitudes of life are simple, like a silent ancient giant, standing at the end of the wild time.
In Nie Pan's memory, this ancestral temple doesn't know how long it has existed. From generation to generation, word of mouth says that the sea has dried up many times, and the mountains have been shattered into fine dust.
But Ji Yuan didn't know what he had done inside, like a tiger digging a mountain, a dragon driving the sea, and the ancestral temple that could not be destroyed by any time, was actually crumbling, and it seemed that it was going to collapse in the next moment.
Nie Pan clenched his fists and unconsciously dreamed: "With such strength and fists, you can live the life you want!" ”
And at this moment, Ji Yuan in the ancestral temple, after pulling down the stone statue weighing more than 10,000 catties, scattered the fragments of the ashes jar everywhere.
At the bottom of the altar, he found a bottomless cave.
"The statues of the gods in this ancestral temple, even every stone, are ancient and rough, and they are stone tools chiseled with knives and axes. There is an infinite and distant atmosphere, which has experienced the baptism of blood, fire and catastrophe. With such a big stroke, even the ancestor of the birdman ancestor would not be able to complete it! ”
Ji Yuan was vigilant at the black cave under the altar. While looking at the ancestral temple, the scene of primitive wilderness.
"This place must be the same as the lion's camel cave, it was the birdmen who forcibly occupied it, tampered with history, and bewitched the captive believers. If so, could it be that the owner of this ancestral temple is the one? ”
In the dark and empty ancestral temple, there was a huge stone statue with a bird-faced human body that was uprooted and pushed down by Ji Yuan.
The whole body of the stone statue was covered with stout and hideous, sinuous cracks like dragons and snakes.
He glanced at it, and thought to himself.
"I remember one time, Lao Dao and I didn't know what strange fruits we ate, and we were both drunk, like falling into the clouds."
When Lao Dao was drunk, he was full of pride, as if he had been the master of heaven and earth, and swore to talk about the legend of the opening of the world and the beginning of chaos.
Since Pangu distinguishes the turbidity, the water and fire in the fixed land, the phoenix was born. The phoenix has the qi of yin and yang ~ together, and gave birth to peacocks and Dapeng.
The peacock is ferocious by nature, eats countless people, and once swallowed the Buddha who was on the top of the snow-capped mountain and cultivated into a golden body. Later, the Buddha cut his back, stepped on the spiritual mountain, and became the Buddha's mother peacock King Bodhisattva.
When Lao Dao wanted to tell the story of Dapeng again, he suddenly became drunk, and for some reason he became angry, and beat Ji Yuan severely.
Ji Yuan's cold body throbbed, as if he had been stressed by the old Taoist: "It's outrageous!" However, it is not impossible for this place to be said to be the temple of Dapeng...... But what the hell is this hole ......?"
At this time, a large cloud of black wind and black gas blew out of the cave, and the bones gushed like spring water, condensing into the appearance of poisonous snakes and poisonous dragons.
The thick black wind and black gas drilled up, and immediately like a hot knife cutting lard, the ground was corroded into a colorful green, turning into a highly toxic quagmire.
Ji Yuan only glanced at it, and felt that it was like a pinprick, and his eyes were going to rot: "What is this!" Could it be that it is a rotten and poisonous gas that has been accumulated since ancient times! I'm not going to let out anything awesome! ”
His heart shook violently, and he retreated again and again, knowing that if he was contaminated with poisonous gas, even his iron body would melt.
The earth vibrates, the boulders of the ancestral temple keep falling, smashing into the ground, the black wind rolls the black gas, like a thick dragon and snake, making waves, setting off colorful soil, and the undercurrent in the highly toxic quagmire surges.
The rough boulders that built the ancestral temple floated in the colorful poisonous quagmire, but they did not melt away, but swayed, but like small boats polished by stones.
Ji Yuan leaned on the stone beam of the ancestral temple, knowing that this place was about to collapse: "These stones for building the temple, one weighs hundreds of pounds, and not only did not melt when they fell into the quagmire, but also floated, which shows how dense it is!" ”
He lifted his feet, fell gently, stepped on the boulder, and walked on the ground in the quagmire of the dragon and snake churning waves, showing a strong ability to control the body.
"The gate hasn't collapsed yet, Nie Pan and his mother are still outside, I don't know if something will happen, I have to get out now!"
Ji Yuan was about to step on the pumice stone and leave in the waves, when a loud roar like a dragon and a snake suddenly sounded in the quagmire.
I saw a terrifying whirlpool in the colorful quagmire, and I don't know what kind of behemoth it was, drawing water underneath.
Ji Yuan stood up, kept jumping, changing the springboard, like surfing, swimming against the current in the whirlpool.
"Tiger Demon Jumping Stream!"
A thunderous force erupted from under his feet, like a cloud driving through the mist, and the air currents around him condensed, and the phantom of the dragon and tiger giant elephant emerged, resisting the suction of the whirlpool that distorted everything.
There were also black dragons and black snakes with poisonous gases, twisting their thick bodies, winding and whipping, making painful explosions in the air.
Ji Yuan let out another tiger demon roar, his chest bulged, and he blew out a sound wave that was like thunder. The surrounding Gangfeng condensed and turned into countless divine weapons, roaring and chopping up black dragons and snakes, and dispersing them into bits and pieces of poisonous gas, radiating outward.
"Right there!"
He looked at the light in front of him, and his heart was happy, and he would be able to jump out of this highly poisonous quagmire immediately.
"Aang!"
The loud roar of a dragon and a snake sounded again, accompanied by a huge wind and waves, swept like a tsunami, clearer and more violent.
Ji Yuan caught a glimpse of a snowy, beast-like skeleton swimming in the colorful quagmire and whirlpool behind him.
The huge beast bones are ten zhang long, and in the colorful poisonous quagmire, they exude a hazy brilliance, like jade, like a giant dragon, or a giant python, galloping in the whirlpool, attracting the vision of heaven and earth.
Ji Yuan was just about to jump out of the whirlpool and jump to the edge of the temple's gate. But the whirlpool under his feet instantly expanded a few times, and finally enveloped the entire temple.
He stepped on the air, his heart shook wildly, and the whole person was still involved in the quagmire and whirlpool of poison.
The terrifying pressure made Ji Yuan feel that the heavens and the earth had turned into a big grinding plate, and he was just a soybean, and his body was almost about to be shattered.
Then one after another poisonous dragons and poisonous snakes wound up and bit down fiercely, releasing a fierce poison that melted everything.
Ji Yuan is already in a desperate situation!
……
The ancestral temple shook outside the mountain, and Nie Pan held his mother's corpse and tried to maintain his sitting posture.
The ancestral temple in front of me, which is not afraid of the change of the sun and the moon and has stood for endless years, is really slowly sinking.
In the distance, the frozen rivers and mountains shattered, and countless birds and beasts fled from the mountains and forests, setting off snow and smoke like waves.
He just thought that this was all a movement made by Ji Yuan.
But I saw the snow on the ground evaporate, billowing white smoke, tearing deep cracks in the ground, and I could see flames gushing out underneath.
Nie Pan dragged his mother back with great difficulty, and he had a strange instinct that the entire village seemed to have turned into a huge alchemy furnace.
