Chapter 139: The Truth of Qianyuan
The entrance to the cave is narrow enough for only one person to pass through. Lin Chen walked slowly on the top of the stairs, only to hear his footsteps echoing in the depths.
Bake!
The deeper he went, the darker his vision became, Lin Chen looked back, the entrance of the cave had become a small point of light, he stretched out his fingers, urged the aura, and a ball of fire lit up at the tip of his hand, which was the fire essence he urged.
With the light of the fire, Lin Chen's vision was restored, and he put his finger close to the walls on both sides, and found that there were actually pictures carving. His eyes froze at the firelight, and there was a bang, and the flame turned into a raging flame that lit up the entire wall.
On the wall in front of him was carved a picture of a flood, the people were displaced, and the whole area became an ocean. Lin Chen looked at the wall on the other side, there were no wall paintings, but there were some written records, but this font, Lin Chen couldn't understand it, its structure was distorted, and the glyph was extremely strange, as if it was not a text in the human world.
Lin Chen turned around and walked towards the entrance of the cave step by step, looking back and forth at the wall as he walked, he stood at the entrance of the cave, and then walked in against the wall, so that Mu Ran'er and Xiao Ash, who were sitting next to the statue, were full of doubts.
"This is a comic mural, corresponding to the wall on the other side, which should record the process of the suppression of the Jiao demon in the first place." Lin Chen walked into the stairs again, carefully looked at the mural, and used rubbing to extend the text on the other side of the wall.
The mural records such a story: I don't know what era it was, this area was thriving, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. However, one day, in a river that surrounded the area, a black dragon was churning in the water, and when it appeared, the residents of this city were curious, and some cultivators went to the river to find out the origin of this dragon.
This action disturbed the black jiao, it turned over and got out of the water, and its body was nearly hundreds of zhang high, several zhang thick.
For a time, the sky was dark, and the clouds covered the sun. The dragon roared, the lightning thundered, the river surged, and the waves rose higher than it, covering the whole city, and the city fell into fear.
The black dragon rose and flew around the city, the river became a flood, flooding the city in an instant, the houses collapsed, and one after another cultivators used their magical powers to curb the torrent, but the dragon was powerful, and soon the cultivators were defeated.
Disasters abound, and the torrent grew larger and larger, spreading over the entire area where the city was located, and just as the area was about to fall, a man appeared.
As soon as he appeared, with a wave of his hand, he stopped the flow of the flood, and when he cast it again, the torrent receded. The black dragon also found the man, and when he saw the man's actions, he was very angry, and opened his mouth at the man.
The man was indifferent, and when he turned his hand, a huge pillar appeared, which suddenly became larger, against the jaw of the black jiao, and then forced, forcing it out of the range of this area.
Lin Chen looked down, and the man forced this dragon to a river, thinking that it was the Wangjiang mentioned in the inscription.
The man and the dragon fought against the Wangjiang River, the river was surging, and the thunder and lightning were rushing. The man's strength was shocking, Heijiao was not a general at all, and soon, the man held a huge pillar and slammed it down, smashing Heijiao on the land by the river. I saw that the man's handprints were complicated, and runes appeared around his body, and with a gesture, countless runes flew out and were printed on Jiaolong's body one by one.
Suddenly, the Jiao Demon, who was hundreds of feet long, couldn't move for half a minute. The man came to the sky above the dragon, stepped on it, and a hundred-zhang disc turned into an altar and appeared, and the next second after the altar appeared, it pressed heavily on the dragon.
"Huh?"
Lin Chen was about to look down again, and couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, because the next mural was erased, leaving traces one after another. Lin Chen continued to walk down and found that all the murals behind him had been erased.
He stretched out his hand to caress the remaining marks on the wall, and found that these marks were smooth throughout, obviously sword marks, and these sword marks were of the same length and size, as if they were created in an instant, it can be seen that the sword wielder's swordsmanship is superb!
"What's behind this, and why did you erase it?" Lin Chen was puzzled.
He turned around and looked at the text on the other side, and saw that a large part had been scraped straight away. Lin Chen stretched out all the remaining words, and suddenly there was a pause under his feet, the stairs were gone, and there was a thick ground under his feet.
For!
Suddenly, one by one, the lights lit up, blooming dazzling light, Lin Chen's eyes were white, and after a while, his vision recovered, and the scene in front of him made him shocked.
This is a vacant land, with a radius of about 100 miles, surrounded by nearly 100 stone pillars, and the surface of the stone pillars has patterns and carvings, like sacrificial patterns in ancient times. These pillars form a circle, and each of them has a night pearl for illumination.
Looking towards the center of the stone pillar, there are two stone sculptures, one in the shape of a man and one in the shape of a long serpentine.
The humanoid stone sculpture rode on the body of the long snake stone carving, one hand grabbed the throat of the long snake, and the other hand dragged the long tendons drawn from the long snake's backbone. Lin Chen's pupils were obscene, and where was the long snake that was pressed down, and it was the black dragon carved on the mural, making waves! And that long tendon is the dragon tendon of Heijiao!
Lin Chen approached, looked at the face of the humanoid statue, and his heart was shocked, it was a very handsome man, with an imperial crown hanging on his head, the heavenly court was full, and the middle finger of the sword eyebrows, you could feel it from the statue, this person must be a high-spirited and domineering person.
He is different from the statue above the entrance of the cave, his momentum is a kind of dignity, the air of ink in the chest, as if everything is in the chest.
"What is the relationship between this person and the existence of the suppression of the black Jiao?"
Lin Chen looked around, he walked up to a stone pillar and touched the pattern on the stone pillar.
"A method of repression at this time!" Lin Chen said softly. "The old man said that in the ancient years, there was a clan that specialized in the method of sealing, and there were a total of ninety-nine stone pillars here, which was the famous sacrificial sealing method of that clan!"
"It would be of great benefit to me if I learned such methods."
Lin Chen's eyes became brighter and brighter, he sat on the ground, a spiritual light lit up in the center of his eyebrows, and the spirit flew out, shuttling between the ninety-nine stone pillars.
"These patterns are actually a type of rune, and I think it should be an extremely ancient rune structure." Lin Chen savored it and retracted the spirit body.
"These patterns are intertwined and chaotic, and they look chaotic when you look up, but there are traces to follow."
Lin Chen's fingers flew over, and there were streaks of aura drawn by him, and with a pinch of his fingers, those lines melted together and turned into a rune. Although Lin Chen rejected Zhang Ran's proposal to double cultivate the spirit rune at that time, after cultivating the spirit body, Lin Chen still asked Zhang Ran for advice on the way of runes.
Shout!
Lin Chen flicked his fingers, and the rune wriggled and changed, turning into a small person. The villain first came to the first pillar, and a thread stretched out from his fingers in the depths, and then pulled the thread, over the second, and joined to the third, then the fifth, the seventh, and the ninth......
"These patterns are not deliberately staggered like this, but this sealing method is originally designed like this, with odd-numbered pillars connected to odd-numbered pillars, even-numbered pillars facing even-numbered pillars, and then fused together in a unified manner."
Lin Chen snorted, and the lines involved by the villain were all connected together, and a simple and vast atmosphere filled this clearing. Lin Chen stood up, only to see a majestic divine light and shadow, rising from the connected suddenly. This person is holding a pagoda, and there are ten halos behind him, and in each halo there must be a god standing, and the treasure is solemn.
Carefully looked at the pagoda held in the hands of the gods, and his face was shocked, the pagoda was exactly the same as the Tongtian Pagoda in Lihuan City, Luocheng, and Yucheng, but this pagoda was like a miniature version of the Babel Tower!
Lin Chen was shocked in his heart, could it be that the founder of the Tower of Babel in these cities was this person?
Thundered!
Suddenly, the ground shook, the ninety-nine stone pillars shook, Lin Chen's feet shook, he looked up and looked around, not knowing what had happened.
At this time, the outside world was stormy, lightning and thunder, and the big rivers outside Yucheng were tumbling and surging, slapping on the other bank. For a while, the whole city shook, and one after another masters flew out of the Tower of Babel and looked here. And in the sky, a crack opened, and a huge eyeball was revealed, shining brightly, looking for the source of this tremor.
In the well, Lin Chen was shocked, because when he saw the two statues in front of him, he seemed to come to life!
The black Jiao stone carving dragon head swayed, slowly opened its big eyes, its eyes were fierce, it turned its eyes to look at Lin Chen, Lin Chen was suddenly frightened, his hair trembled, and he turned around and left.
Boom!
However, Hei Jiao didn't intend to let him go, only to see his dragon's eyes shining with black light, and a stone gate suddenly appeared, blocking Lin Chen's way.
Lin Chen's body leaned against the stone gate, and his cultivation was running, and the sound of the five elements appeared, and he shouted in a low voice, fighting, fighting, phantom, towning, and killing, and the five characters were launched in unison, and the majestic power of qi and blood burst out from his body, and a five-color square seal appeared in his hand.
Roar!
The black Jiao roared, the stone carving on his body was slowly fading, revealing the real body, it revealed that it was too much, and opened its bloody mouth at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen's complexion changed greatly, he turned his hand and lifted the big seal, and he was about to smash it towards the black Jiao.
Suddenly, a vast force burst out from the well, and under this force, Lin Chen realized how small he was, and he was afraid that he would turn into ashes if he was just a little stained.
Fortunately, this force was not aimed at him, and it was even very cared for, and there was no trace of power enveloping him.
Thump!
A thunderous heartbeat sounded, shaking the eardrums, Lin Chen followed the sound, only to see a man with an imperial crown hanging on his head, wearing an imperial robe, and a handsome face, the man had long hair fluttering, his face was expressionless, and one palm was behind him. Around his body, space distorted, forming a circle, an invisible shroud of the man's power.
Lin Chen's eyes tightened, this man was not a humanoid statue riding on Heijiao's body!
When he heard the news, Lin Chen was stunned.
"Fengshen takes apprentices?" Lin Chen and Tian Yan sat in the courtyard, enjoying themselves. "After a thousand years, why does the wind god plan to accept apprentices again."
Tian Yu put the brewed Tongshen tea on the small stone slab, poured a cup for the two of them, and said, "The reason, we don't need to know, but it is not a bad thing for us to accept disciples from the wind god." ”
"I don't know, otherwise my brother will be able to catch up with this opportunity." Lin Chen took a sip of tea, his expression was enjoyable, but he couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought of Zhang.
"Don't worry, maybe no one knows the name Lu Yuanzi, but the title of the Holy Doctor of the Wonderful Hand is famous in the corner domain." Tian Yu raised his head and looked at the sky and muttered.
Two days later.
Three thousand students gathered in the Wind God Temple, the old students in the front, the new students in the back, the team lined up on the spar road, the road on both sides of the hall of the strange beasts prostrate, the dragon and phoenix hovering overhead, showing Ruixiang.
Fang Mingzi stood at the gate of the hall with a blue nose and swollen face, his face couldn't be darker, looking at the three thousand people in Haohao Tangtang, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, in order, enter one by one." ”
Standing at the forefront was Liu Bai, dressed in white, tall, handsome, with long hair tied up and hanging behind his back. Liu Bai gave Fang Mingzi a slight salute and walked into the main hall, Fang Mingzi's face was gloomy and he didn't pay attention to it.
Not long after Liu Bai entered, he walked out, Fang Mingzi glanced at him, he hurriedly saluted, and said, "See the guardian, the senior of the wind god said, let me wait outside, saying that he has to think about it." ”
Fang Mingzi nodded slightly, beckoned with his palm, and Liu Bai walked to his side and stood, waiting.
After Liu Bai was an old student named Li Su, he was the leader of the old students who had a fight with the freshmen on the training ground a month ago, he was tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he also bowed to Fang Mingzi, turned around and walked into the main hall. But, in a matter of hours, he walked out dejectedly.
Fang Mingzi looked at his face, waved his sleeves, and sent Li Su directly down the Wind God Temple.
"Next." Fang Mingzi's voice was emotionless.
One after another, the old students walked into the main hall one after another, and walked out one after another with gloomy faces, among the more than two thousand old students, in the consideration of the wind god, plus Liu Bai, there were only less than ten.
Fang Mingzi looked at these eliminated old students, hated that iron could not become steel, and waved his palm to send them all down.
"Tian Wei has seen the Guardian." Tian smiled and said. "Dare to ask the Guardian, does the Wind God have any preferences?"
Hum!
"Oops!"
Fang Mingzi blackened his face, snorted coldly, and kicked Tian Yan's buttocks, kicking him into the main hall. Tian Wei rubbed his buttocks and stood up, scolding his stomach in his mouth, then raised his head and looked at the handsome man sitting at the head of the main hall, the man had a halo of light behind his head, and looked at Tian Wei with a smile.
Seeing this, Tian Yu hurriedly bowed his head, his attitude was humble, and he was respectful: "Junior Tian Coward, I have seen the predecessor of the Wind God." ”
"Tian coward?" When the wind god heard this, his face suddenly drooped, and his tone was not good. "It turned out to be Tian Jiazi, hmph, my family has a heritage, and I still want to rub my skills, get out!"
The strong wind rolled up, Tian Yuan's figure flew out, and fell in Zhihuan Yuan, covering his waist pole and grinning his teeth; "It's really the same thing."
Lin Chen was stunned and looked at the figure of Tian Yan flying out, and couldn't help but shrink his neck, feeling uneasy.
She Gaoyuan walked in with a warm face, and flew out after a while, accompanied by an angry snort. Gao bowed humbly, and then stepped into the Wind God Temple, just for a moment, this stupid big man walked down the Wind God Temple with a black face. Qingmo waved her bewitching body, threw a wink at Lin Chen, smiled slightly, walked into the hall, and within half an hour, the woman pouted and walked out angrily.
After Qingmo, he was an honest-looking young man, he had a shy personality, and he stayed in the main hall for half an hour, and then walked up to Fang Mingzi and said, "Huang Shan and the guardian have saluted, the wind god, the wind god told the juniors, wait outside." ”
Fang Mingzi faced this shy young man, his face softened slightly, nodded slightly, and the honest Huangshan walked past him, and greeted the ten old students one by one, leaving a good impression on these people.
Time flies, the sun sets, there are still about ten freshmen left, and after a day of screening, only thirteen of the three thousand students have entered the eye of the wind god.
The next one is Jia Yujia, her ponytail was cut off in half when she was fighting Lin Chen, leaving only a half-pulled braid, at this time Jia Yujia just tied a braid casually, and her dress was still slim, she glanced at Lin Chen provocatively before entering the Wind God Temple, which made the young man have a headache.
"Wait outside."
Jia Yujia had just stepped into the main hall when he heard a deep voice coming from the hall, and then he saw Jia Yujia walking out with his head held high, and then walked to the team behind him under Fang Mingzi's instructions.
Lin Chen was the last one to enter the Wind God Temple, at this time it was already dark, but inside and outside the Wind God Temple, it was brightly lit, hundreds of strange beasts had road marks on the surface of their bodies, the lines were swimming, glowing brightly, and the dragon and phoenix divine beasts hovering around the main hall had a spirit bead, and the spirit bead bloomed with dazzling light, illuminating the darkness around the hall.
Lin Chen came to Fang Mingzi and was about to salute, when the old man suddenly glared and raised his foot to kick. The boy hurriedly dodged and got into the Wind God Temple.
His eyes began to darken, and after a while, his vision lit up, and the first thing that illuminated him was the halo at the back of the man's head, which had strange lines and strange patterns. Lin Chen looked at the space of the main hall, there were nine optimus pillars supporting it, and there were divine dragons coiled on each of the pillars, these divine dragons were lifelike, and the scales were distinct. Suddenly, the nine divine dragons opened their eyes, and their divine light was blazing. Lin Chen's heart was shocked when he saw this, this divine dragon coiled on the nine giant pillars turned out to be real!
"Shocked, huh?" A deep voice sounded, waking Lin Chen up.
He raised his head, his eyes shrunken when he saw the face of the wind god. When I comprehended the Wind Spirit Pillar, I saw a picture of a handsome god who forced back thousands of demon gods with his own strength, and that god man looked exactly the same as the wind god in front of him at this time.
"Could it be that that picture is the scene of the wind god resisting the earth realm back then?" Lin Chen was shocked.
"Good, good, good." Fengshen looked at Lin Chen carefully, and with a sigh in his mouth, he couldn't help but say three good words.
"Little one, would you like to be my disciple?" Fengshen's tone was gentle, but to Lin Chen's ears, there was some meaning of abduction.
"Junior Lin Chen, meet the god of wind." Lin Chen saluted and did not answer his question directly.
Fengshen raised his hand and motioned for Lin Chen to get up.
After Lin Chen stood up, he looked at the high wind god seriously, and said with a straight face: "The younger generation is abrupt, there are a few points of confusion, I don't know if the wind god can answer?" ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." The wind god's seated body leaned down slightly.
"Before coming, the younger generation was fortunate enough to comprehend the divine soldier of the seniors, the Wind Spirit Pillar. In the Wind Spirit Pillar, there are many supernatural powers, but these supernatural powers are not like I have seen before, they are composed of runes. Dare to ask the wind god, what is the relationship between spirits and talismans? Lin Chen asked sincerely.
The wind god smiled slightly, and said: "Everything between heaven and earth has its own texture, and the Heavenly Saint Ancestor created the cultivation realm, which was originally to imitate heaven and earth, and the original cultivation method was Fu!" ”
"It's just that this kind of cultivation method is too difficult, so the Heavenly Saint Ancestor simplified it and created a spiritual cultivation, you see......"
The wind god stretched out his hand, only to see the slightest aura surrounding, constantly outlining in the palm of his hand, and finally formed a rune, the rune changed, turning into an air mass, the wind god slapped out with a palm, the air mass flew out, and hit a huge pillar, the divine dragon was alarmed, flying around the main hall.
Lin Chen suddenly had an epiphany, revealing a touch of clarity in his heart.
"The younger generation is abrupt, and there is one more thing."
Fengshen smiled and nodded, letting Lin Chen continue.
"My predecessors have been enlightened for a long time, may I ask, what is the Tao? How did you become enlightened? Lin Chen suddenly raised his voice and asked loudly.
Hearing this, the wind god sat up straight and fell into silence, his face turned flat, he snorted coldly, his big eyes glared, and the wind raged in the hall.
Lin Chen stood in the hurricane, shook the wind god to the ground, and then was swept into the Zhihuan Garden with a calm face. At this time, in the courtyard, Tian Yu was lying on a rocking chair leisurely drinking tea, and when a hurricane blew, Lin Chen's figure appeared, grinning: "What's the matter, that old man of the wind god also drove you out?" ”
Shout!
A wind blade suddenly appeared, Tian Wei was alert, and hurriedly jumped away, the rocking chair he was lying on suddenly fell apart, Tian Wei couldn't help but gasp: "This old thing is really ruthless." ”
After saying this, he hurriedly looked left and right, beware of the wind god controlling the wind blade again.
"He said he wanted to take me as an apprentice, but he couldn't answer my question, so he sent me back." Lin Chen was very innocent, his eyes were rolling.
Tian looked at Lin Chen dumbfounded, walked up to him and touched his forehead, and said, "Brother Lin, you have a fever in your head, can you refuse this?" ”
"It's not that I refuse, the teacher is teaching and solving doubts, and he can't answer my questions, so how can I be my teacher." Lin Chen chuckled and said seriously.
In the Wind God Temple, the big ears of the Wind God turned back to normal, his face was blue, the corners of his mouth twitched, his teeth were clenched, and when he heard the conversation between Lin Chen and the others, he couldn't wait to hang these two juniors up and teach them a lesson.
"Teacher, have you made your choice? Which one can be my little brother and sister? The bruises on Fang Mingzi's face had not yet been eliminated, and he walked into the main hall, came to the seat of the wind god, and asked.
"Ugh." Fengshen's mood returned to normal, his eyes looked into the distance, and he sighed deeply.
"There's one more, teacher, I think you should take a look." Fang Mingzi suddenly remembered someone and reminded.
"Oh?" The wind god became interested, but his expression did not change.
Fang Mingzi stretched out his hand and swiped nothingness in front of him, and the pitch-black passage appeared, and the old man's body was tilted to the side, his hands crossed in front of him.
The halo behind the wind god dissipated, stood up, and walked into the passage, Fang Mingzi followed closely.
Behind the passage, there is a land of birds and flowers, surrounded by jungle, with a rich aura, and in the center of the jungle is a large hall, which is the same as the retreat of Fang Mingzi from the outside world.
Fang Mingzi led the way in front and pushed open the door of the hall, and in the hall, Lu Yuanzi pinched the Xuanyin in his hand, attracting the aura of heaven and earth, and Zhang Ran sat cross-legged in the air.
Lu Yuanzi injected a ray of spiritual light into Zhang Ran's body, the face of the black-clothed young man flickered, and a colorless roulette wheel behind him also flickered. Seeing that the wind god walked in, Lu Yuanzi hurriedly got up and made a disciple's salute.
"Huh?"
Fengshen raised his hand, his eyes were completely attracted by Zhang Ran's Five Elements Wheel, and the more he observed, the more shocking he became.
"That's what you're talking about, this teenager?" He asked.
"Exactly." Fang Mingzi replied.
"This son, I can't teach him." The wind god looked gloomy and shook his head.
He snapped out a glimmer of light from his fingers and burrowed into Zhang Ran's body, he put his hands behind his back, and muttered: "Old, old......"
