The thoughts in Meng Zhou's heart were spinning rapidly.

After a while, he made up his mind.

He first went to see Bai Zhi, and after some hard work, he brought Bai Zhi, who had fallen into a blur and sleep, into the sea of knowledge.

Then he found the big turtle in the depths of the water, and put them in the beast bag.

Meng Zhou brought all the items that he could carry with him, and finally looked at the entire Aurora Cave Mansion through the Bright Moon Mirror.

In the Bright Moon Mirror, the image of the Aurora Cave Mansion regressed rapidly, and soon, it retreated to sixty-four years ago—it was also the limit that the Time and Water Sword he was now in possession could trace.

At that time, the Aurora Cave was still a pristine, hidden underground space.

At the same time as the time in the bright moon mirror was rapidly rewinding, a ray of sword light that seemed to be real and illusory, bright and uncertain, was like a swimming fish swimming against the current, standing in this area sixty-four years ago.

After a slight pause, the image in the bright moon mirror quickly flashed back to sixty-four years ago, as if it had been reversed to the apex and began to "fall" rapidly.

Sixty-three years, sixty-two years...... Sixty years...... Fifty years...... Decade......

Time quickly approaches the past more than sixty years ago.

At the same time, the wisp of sword light that had risen to the top also fell at a rapid speed.

The subtle and restrained sword light bloomed in an instant, like a blazing sun that exploded to the extreme in an instant.

In the bright moon mirror, wherever its light shines, it is where the sword light reaches, and those images of the past are shattered like foam.

When the image in the bright moon mirror returned to the present again, the time and water sword that had been exerted to the extreme were finally exhausted.

After doing all this, Meng Zhou tried to retrace the time in this area of the Aurora Cave Mansion again, and there was no trace of it.

It's white, it's clean.

The traces of him and Angelica Angelica naturally disappeared without a trace.

After dealing with all this, Meng Zhou quietly escaped from the Aurora Cave Mansion.

After he disappeared, the Aurora Cave was still brilliant.

The source of the aurora rune array on the rock wall of the dome looked like bright stars from a distance.

Below is a mirror-like surface of the water, reflecting the flowing aurora and the stars.

……

Meng Zhou is cautious by nature and likes to prepare for the worst in everything.

The information that Yaya returned to tell this time directly cast a layer of shadow over the five domains.

Even the dullest person should be aware of its importance and danger in his position.

Now that he already knew that there was such a hidden danger, it was in Tianqi Mountain, it was impossible for him to bury his head in the sand and turn a blind eye to it.

After accidentally learning such information from Yaya, the first thought that came to Meng Zhou's heart was actually to leave.

Far away from Tianqi Mountain, the farther away from this "source of danger" the better.

But he soon realized that unless he immediately fled beyond the Five Realms, there was no point in such evasion.

After some rational analysis, Meng Zhou decided to do some exploration.

And before the operation began, Meng Zhou had made the worst plan - if it was too tricky, he would immediately flee away and never return to the Aurora Cave Mansion.

Therefore, Meng Zhou took everything he could with him, erasing all the traces of time in this area within sixty-four years, and the traces related to him and Bai Zhi naturally disappeared cleanly.

……

"Yaya, can you tell the direction of that 'aroma'?"

At this moment, Meng Zhou's body shape that performed the Five Elements Escape perfectly blended into the rocks and soil, and quickly escaped in the depths of the earth.

Yaya didn't expect that the news she reacted to made her uncle have such a fierce reaction, and she couldn't help but become solemn when she was infected.

She didn't give an answer at the first time, but said, "Uncle, can you go around the cave a few times first?" ”

"Why?"

"It should be because the source is too far away from here, and the 'aroma' is very faint, and it can't feel a significant difference within a hundred miles around the cave."

Saying that, she also specially explained:

"I forgot the time to return in time just now, just curious about the direction of the source......"

After Yaya's explanation, Meng Zhou reacted.

Yaya's way to identify the direction of the source is through the judgment of the intensity of the "aroma".

The stronger the "aroma", the closer the distance;

Conversely, the farther away it is.

And here it may be because it has spread too far, the "aroma" is already very thin, and the change in intensity is not obvious.

At least, within a hundred miles of the Aurora Cave Mansion, it is not enough for Yaya to make a clear judgment.

And for her to make a clear and correct judgment, it is necessary for her to clearly distinguish the direction of the diffusion.

And the best way to do this is to bring Yaya to a different "collection point" in the shortest possible time.

Thinking like this, Meng Zhou's figure quickly floated up, and soon came out of the ground, and his body perfectly blended with the air.

Under the ground, movement speed is somewhat affected.

With the Aurora Cave Mansion under the earth as the center, Meng Zhou moved quickly at the fastest speed, like a flickering dot.

Yaya didn't speak again, but she turned into a little grasshopper and shrunk quietly in Meng Zhou's arms, a pair of slender tentacles like an antenna that kept rotating, searching for a specific signal, turning round and round.

In this way, about an hour later, Meng Zhou, who was constantly moving outward with the Aurora Cave Mansion as the center, finally heard Yaya's voice ringing in his heart again.

"Uncle, I found it, I found it!"

Meng Zhou also stopped in time and looked down at the grasshopper that had a small head out of the collar.

Her long, slender tentacles no longer rotated, but pointed to the left and forward.

Letting her body and head turn, the direction of the tentacles did not change in the slightest.

Meng Zhou looked in that direction, and immediately realized in his heart.

The direction that Yaya's tentacles point to is the direction of the central area of Tianqi Mountain.

"The source is that direction." Yaya said.

After confirming the direction, Meng Zhou did not rush over as fast as possible, but once again retreated deep into the earth, heading in the direction pointed by Yaya.

As he gets closer, Yaya will also make some tweaks to his direction from time to time.

At first, Meng Zhou thought that the source of the target was in the central area of the geographical location of Tianqi Mountain.

But in reality, this is not the case.

In the end, Meng Zhou stayed more than 2,000 miles east of the central area of Tianqi Mountain.

He didn't move on.

The girl who was lying on the collar of his clothes to guide him has long been included in the sea of knowledge.

It's just that as the distance from the "source" gets closer and closer, Yaya's performance becomes more and more abnormal.

It's like a glutton encountering a peerless delicacy, showing a strong and irrepressible desire to eat.

This instinct was even drowning her sanity a little.

Seeing this change, Meng Zhou decisively included Yaya in the sea of knowledge, completely isolating him from the "source".

Fortunately, after Yaya's continuous error correction and fine-tuning, Meng Zhou, who has the outline of the entire Tianqi Mountain in "Interpreting the World", also basically knows the direction of the goal.

After traveling alone for nearly a thousand miles, Meng Zhou stayed at a position more than two thousand miles east of the central area of Tianqi Mountain, and did not continue to advance.

Just because through the Bright Moon Mirror, he had "seen" that five or six hundred miles away on the easterly side, there was a mountain peak that was not conspicuous in Tianqi Mountain, neither high nor low.

But inside that seemingly ordinary mountain, there is actually a lot of truth inside.

There is a third-order spiritual land with an area much larger than the Aurora Cave Mansion.

A third-order spiritual land that was completely "embraced" in the belly of the mountain, and it was pitch black.

If this was the case, this spiritual place would not be enough to attract Meng Zhou's special attention.

In Tianqi Mountain, although there are not many third-order spiritual lands, there are not many absolute ones.

He didn't deliberately look for it, and along the way, through the Bright Moon Mirror, he had already found a lot of third-order spiritual lands hidden in the light and dark.

If this was just a third-order spiritual land hidden deep in the shadows and undiscovered, although Meng Zhou would be surprised, he wouldn't pay too much attention at this moment.

The viewing range of the 600-mile radius of the Bright Moon Mirror is certainly an advantage, but it also makes it difficult for him to focus his gaze on a specific place.

But just after this mountain belly appeared in the Bright Moon Mirror and synchronously imported the information into the "Interpretation World", Meng Zhou suddenly found that the "brightness" of the Five Domains had dimmed by two points again.

And at the same time as the "interpretation of the world" changed, the mysterious intuition given to him by Tongming Dao Heart also made him feel a fierce soul in his heart.

This is not a reminder.

It's straight to the bar.

As a result, Meng Zhou immediately stopped, and the Bright Moon Mirror, which looked at everything within a radius of six hundred miles, quickly locked it in that mountain.

Soon, Meng Zhou had a harvest.

In the middle of the dark, silent mountainside spiritual land, stood an altar.

The altar is divided into three tiers.

The lowest altar is a black earthen altar with a base of more than 100 meters in length and width, and the appearance is the roughest.

The second layer is built on top of the first, with a smaller area and a round, white stone altar.

Compared to the first floor, it is much more refined, and some faint reliefs can even be seen on the surface of the stone altar.

The top floor, built on top of a circular white stone altar, is smaller and squarer again.

This altar is even more exaggerated than the second.

That was beyond the scope of exquisite and elegant, under the bright moon mirror, it was a square blood jade ruby.

The texture is as warm as jade, and the red is more vivid than blood.

And on top of this huge blood jade, there is a small incense burner.

Seeing all this, Meng Zhou's heart shook.

Even if there was no "deducing the world", the five realms were getting bleaker and darker, and even if there was no more and more powerful impact of the Tongming Dao heart, Meng Zhou could be sure that this place was extraordinary.

His gaze slowly swept over the three-tiered altar, and finally, landed on the small incense burner above the altar.

He was pretty sure that was all that mattered.

Meng Zhou even had an intuition in his heart, "The 'fragrance' that Yaya smelled may be wafting from here." ”

Thinking like this in his heart, Meng Zhou's gaze locked on the incense burner.

And as his gaze locked, the incense burner became the only one in the bright moon mirror.

At the mouth of the incense burner, Meng Zhou saw waves of faint aura, which seemed to be flowing, as if it was boiling gently, as if it was brewing and condensing something.

This fluctuating aura blocked his vision, preventing him from seeing inside the furnace.

He desperately wanted to see through the barrier and see what was inside.

It's a pity that even the barrier of the third-order supreme formation can easily see through the Bright Moon Mirror, there is no way to deal with the spiritual light barrier that covers the mouth of the incense burner.

Can't peep through, can't see through.

Meng Zhou then brought the entire altar into view.

In the bright moon mirror, there was darkness.

The three-tiered altar, as well as the incense burner above the altar, were hidden in the thick darkness.

But gradually, Meng Zhou felt a little different.

The Bright Moon Mirror has a variety of abilities, one of which is called "Discerning", which can glimpse many truths that ordinary people can't see.

At this moment, the bright moon mirror, which was originally pitch black, gradually revealed wisps of invisible threads.

It's not a thread, it's more like an invisible smoke, an invisible gas.

They appeared in the dirt beneath the altar, and at the moment they were very thin and scattered.

But when they spread over the lowest earthen altar, the density increased considerably.

By the time they had once again overflowed the two tiers above, the invisible "smoke" had taken on a texture like flowing water.

Pure, thick, textured.

Eventually, the influx into a small area disappeared.

The place where they disappear is the mouth of the incense burner.

Meng Zhou once again launched a charge towards the mouth of the incense burner, but he still couldn't see through the invisible barrier.

After struggling for a while, and after finding that there was nothing to do, Meng Zhou turned his gaze away.

After some visits, Meng Zhou confirmed that this altar was the most eye-catching, strange, and weird place in this mountainside spiritual land.

Elsewhere, a pristine and natural ecology is basically maintained.

But it's not like it's not without any new discoveries.

At a stone wall not too far from the altar, some stone chambers have been artificially carved out.

The area of the stone chambers is not large, and each is the size of a normal quiet room.

There aren't many of them, only six in total.

In these stone chambers, Meng Zhou found some traces left by monks.

However, it is very inconspicuous and has been very long.

"Once upon a time, there was a monk's activity here."

With such a judgment in his heart, Meng Zhou was not surprised by this.

When he saw that altar, he was already mentally prepared for this.

The discovery of these stone chambers only further confirmed his suspicions.

……

Looking at all this through the bright moon mirror, there is no more to discover.

After thinking for a while, although his curiosity had almost filled his mind, Meng Zhou finally pressed his true body to enter and get a glimpse of his plan.

But he had no intention of leaving.

After thinking about it, the Bright Moon Mirror locked onto the stone chamber area.

In the video, there is no change in the environment of the stone chamber.

But Meng Zhou knew that time in this area was going back at an extremely fast pace.

But until he goes back in time to more than 60 years ago, the stone chamber environment in the image has not changed at all, and everything seems to be still.

This means that not a single monk has come in here for more than sixty years.

This was a little unexpected for Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou turned his gaze back to the altar again. (End of chapter)
