Chapter 6: Blood
An hour later, Wang Lung follows Arlinn to a hidden location, which is located under the wooden house where Arlinn lives, that is, a space where the trunk of the giant tree extends into the ground, which is very hidden, and if Arlinn had not led the way, Wang Lung would not have been able to find it, because the entrance is very special.
The giant tree that Wang Lung saw, don't look at its lush branches, in fact, it has long since died, this death is not death in the ordinary sense, but the giant tree has long been psychic, but it has not survived the erosion of the years, the spirituality is already, after the death of the psychic ancient tree, the soul produced by it was sealed by Arlinn in a spiritual treasure, and now many years have passed, even with the help of the spiritual treasure, the soul of the ancient tree has been weakened, and it is estimated that it will completely dissipate in a few years.
After the death of the Psychic Ancient Tree, although its soul was sealed and protected by Arlinn, its body still survived like a normal tree, but without spirituality, and in anyone's opinion, the tree was just a little bigger, and there was nothing special about it.
The place where Wang Lung is now is a space that extends underground from the trunk of the ancient tree, and without the soul of the ancient tree, even Arlinn would be very troublesome if he wants to get there, as for the origin of this space, Wang Lung asked Arlinn, but the other party did not tell him, just smiled and said nothing.
This place is pitch black, there is no light, although Wang Long's eyesight is good, but it feels a little weird, at this time he has already seen the surrounding situation, this place is only two zhang square, the area is very small, there are no furnishings, the surroundings are all closed, can not see whether it is soil or rock.
Arlinn didn't see any movement in his hands, but he reached out and pointed at his feet, and in a moment, several colorful halos appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and Wang Lung's eyes widened as he carefully watched the changes in the halos under his feet. Soon he saw the fame.
"This is a teleportation array, it has never been opened, and I don't know how much time has passed since it was built, little dragon, you stand on it. Drop a drop of blood in the middle depression, so that the array can be fully activated. β
Wang Lung nodded stunned, and walked slowly towards the teleportation array as Arlinn instructed, and when his left foot was about to step on the teleportation array, Wang Lung's body stopped, turned to look at Arlinn, and asked with trepidation, "There will be no problem, what if the teleportation goes wrong?"
Arlinn smiles and shakes her head, "If someone else were wrong, it would have been wrong. But there is no problem for you, you activate the formation first, I will test it, rest assured, if there is a problem, I will not let you rush to teleport. β
Wang Lung nodded, raised his feet and stepped into the teleportation array, waiting to reach the middle of the teleportation array. Slowly crouched down and looked closely at the depression.
A very small groove. It's the thickness of the thumb, but the groove looks like it has no bottom, and the dark hole makes it impossible to see what's inside the groove.
Wang Lung stretched out his right hand, and with a slight force on his thumb, a drop of bright red blood oozed from the tip of his index finger. With the index finger pointing downward, the droplets of blood fall into the groove.
The moment the blood dripped into the groove, Wang Lung felt as if something had gently knocked on his heart, very lightly, without any pain. If you don't taste it carefully, it's hard to spot.
Wang Lung didn't pay much attention to his feelings, his eyes stared at the groove, his blood had already dripped into it, what kind of reaction would it be, he was very looking forward to it, but unfortunately, Wang Lung looked at it for a while, the teleportation array was still the same, and the groove didn't move at all.
Wang Lung turns to Arlinn in confusion, wanting to ask if there is anything wrong with the other party, why there is no reaction at all because his blood has dripped down, but before he can speak, Arlinn chuckles and says, "Silly boy, it's just for you to drip a drop of blood, do you still want your blood to be psychic?"
"This ......" Wang Lung didn't know what to say, since Arlinn had asked him to drip blood, he should have had some reaction, but Arlinn's answer left him speechless, which was completely different from what he expected.
"Come out, I'll test if the teleportation array works. Arlinn beckons to Wang Lung, who gets up and walks out.
Standing beside Arlinn, I saw that the other party flicked his fingers, and a pale yellow aura instantly shot into the teleportation array, and then looked at the teleportation array, the original colorful halo did not change much, and the position of the groove in the middle of the teleportation array, suddenly appeared a blood-red light, and instantly went straight to the sky, this sudden red light, in the blink of an eye, it looked like it was about to collapse, but Wang Lung found that when the red light was about to collapse, due to the refraction of the light, it seemed that a figure flashed in it.
The time for the figure to appear was very short, whether it was a man or a queen dragon didn't see it clearly at all, and Wang Lung was a little afraid to confirm whether he was dazzled or really had that figure, Wang Lung fell into deep thought, and he didn't see the next changes in the teleportation array at all.
After a moment, Wang Lung turned his head to look at the two brothers and asked, "When the red light was about to disappear just now, did you see a figure, it disappeared in a flash, did you see it?" β
The two brothers shook their heads and said nothing, and Wang Lung was about to say something more, but Arlinn's voice came from his ears: "There is no red light in our eyes, only you can see it." β
Wang Lung asked suspiciously, "Why?"
Arlinn looks sideways at Wang Lung and says lightly, "This teleportation array was built by your father back then, and only people of the same bloodline can use it, and your blood is the key to activating this array, so we can't see the red light just now." β
"My father, what is the Pure Land in the Sun, is it also my father's masterpiece, the place where he used to cultivate, is it?" Wang Lung asked in astonishment.
"I don't know much about the Pure Land, your father didn't say it back then, he just left this teleportation array. β
Arlinn didn't believe Wang Lung at all, but he didn't ask any questions, Wang Lung knew that there were some things that he kept secret from him before he completed the entire experience, and now there were still two guardians who had not completed the experience, and his life story was slowly unfolding, and if he asked now, he couldn't get a clearer answer, so he could only wait for the future or enter the Pure Land to see.
"In that case, then please ask Aunt Lin to send me over. Wang Lung said.
Arlinn nods, motioning for Wang Lung to stand inside the teleportation array, and when Wang Lung is done, Arlinn says, "When you grow a hundred moons, just enter the teleportation array of the Pure Land." Crush the orb of communication I have given you, and I will take you back. β
Wang Lung nodded and didn't say anything, Arlinn sighed softly when she saw this, and backhanded the teleportation array, and a colorful halo instantly enveloped Wang Lung, as the halo became brighter and brighter. Wang Lung's figure could no longer be seen with the naked eye, and in a moment, a low light sound sounded, and the halo disappeared immediately, and then looked at the teleportation array, Wang Lung had already been teleported away.
Once the teleportation array is back in shape, Arlinn sighs and says, "Let's go, it'll take a while for the dragon to come back." β
The two brothers take the initiative to fall behind Arlinn with a slight bow, but they are just about to take a step. Arlinn's exclamation can be heard in his ears: "Oops, oh no, I forgot to put a teleportation charm on Xiaolong, this teleportation distance is too far, although Xiaolong is in good health, but such a long-distance teleportation, I think he is not comfortable." β
Hearing Arlinn's soliloquy, the two brothers look at each other, but they don't dare say a word. They know Arlinn has forgotten. It was all on purpose, Wang Lung may not know about Arlinn's relationship with his parents, but the two brothers know a little bit about it, after all, they are from the miracle space, and some rumors can still be heard.
As the saying goes, the father owes the debt to the son, and Wang Lung can be hurt by Arlinn now. This is not one time, when Wang Lung comes back from the sun, there is another time, that feeling is not comfortable, it is estimated that Wang Lung will be depressed for a long time.
It's exactly as the two brothers guessed. At this time, Wang Lung was rolling on the ground with his head in his arms, his head was splitting, he felt that life was worse than death, he wanted to smash his head, not only that, dizziness, nausea, dazzle and other discomforts were all gathered in one, making him feel like he was falling into the abyss of hell.
Even though Wang Lung was very unwell now, he could still be sure that he had successfully teleported, but he didn't know if the place he was in was the Pure Land that Arlinn said he was, and now he couldn't see anything clearly, let alone feel his surroundings.
For about two or three hours, Wang Lung lay on the ground motionless, he had exhausted his physical strength, and although the feeling that life was worse than death had disappeared, he had no ability to stand up.
Wang Lung was very depressed in his heart, he knew that teleportation would have a feeling of discomfort, and he had experienced it a few times, but the original teleportation distance was very close, and the discomfort came and went away quickly, he never expected such a situation this time.
Wang Lung kept cursing in his heart, the most scolded was Arlinn, the most poisonous woman's heart, a high-level cultivator, and let himself call her Aunt Lin, in the end, he didn't let himself suffer from it, Wang Lung didn't believe that Arlinn didn't know the consequences of teleportation, if he told him in advance, Wang Lung could still have a mental preparation; except for Arlinn, the two brothers didn't get any benefit, and they were also cursed by Wang Lung, after all, the two brothers were also cultivators, and their familiarity with the teleportation array far exceeded that of Wang Lung, and the two brothers also didn't remind Wang Lung that since they met Arlinn, the two brothers rarely spoke, and in front of Arlinn, like docile sheep, they didn't dare to breatheγ
Another hour or so passed, Wang Lung barely supported his body, and sat on the ground without any image, raising his eyes to look at the surrounding environment.
The teleportation array was ten zhang away behind Wang Lung, and there was a beautiful palace in the distance, and on both sides of the palace were connected two winding corridors, and at the end of the corridors there were two palaces, but those two palaces looked much smaller.
Except for the palace and the cloister, there is not a single living thing here, not a single flower or tree, not a single bird or spirit animal, and not a single figure has appeared after such a long time.
Could it be that this place is the Pure Land? Arlinn once said that the space here is not large, Wang Lung roughly estimated, the front and back are only about 30 zhang, which is indeed a little smaller than the area of the cave mansion of other cultivators.
Wang Lung retracted his gaze, turned around and looked around, there was a huge light curtain a hundred meters above his head, showing a colorful color, and its coverage was much larger than the space he was in now, enveloping the entire Pure Land.
In addition, Wang Lung also found that this place was very desolate, without any flowers and trees, a lonely palace, without too much embellishment, and its style was somewhat similar to those ancient buildings in China.
Picking up the mantra of "Casting and Cultivation", Wang Lung felt that the aura here was indeed very strong, much richer than anywhere he went, and according to Arlinn and his brother's description, the aura here was really comparable to the miracle space.
If you guess correctly, this should be the Pure Land, but the feeling to Wang Lung really doesn't fit the literal meaning of the Pure Land, and it is more like a fairly complete ruin.
Regardless of what kind of existence this place is, Wang Lung believes that the Pure Land has a lot to do with his father, and it is really possible that it is a temporary foothold for his father or a cave built when he came to Earth before, and if he searches carefully, he may be able to find some clues.
The conditions for coming here are very harsh, and only people of the same bloodline can enter, which makes Wang Lung believe that his father once lived here, maybe not only his father, but his own mother may also have come.
Walking slowly to the nearest palace, Wang Lung walked very slowly, under his feet was a lifeless land, without any plants or embellishments, and there was no so-called bluestone pavement, although it was inside the sun, the ground under his feet was very solid, and there was no trace of dust.
Wang Lung walked very slowly, as if he had to carefully observe every step, but unfortunately, there was really nothing to pay attention to in the entire Pure Land space except for the palace and the cloister, which made Wang Lung very depressed.
Looking away from the scope of the Pure Land, due to the reason of the colorful light curtain, what is outside the Pure Land, Wang Lung can't see clearly, only feels a little blurry and free dark yellow light flashes and disappears, Wang Lung doesn't care too much about this, after all, the Pure Land is inside the sun, what can there be on the periphery, except for the sun flames up to tens of millions of degrees, it is the demon beast in Arlinn's mouth, as long as he doesn't leave the Pure Land half a step, those are no threat to him.
It didn't take long for Wang Lung to walk up to the nearest palace and look up at the gate of the palace, and after only one look, he was attracted by the plaque on the door. (To be continued......)
