Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Past of the White Tiger Palace, We Met by Fate
The iron cable connecting the White Tiger Hall is not difficult to walk, and when you look down from above, you can see the layers of floating clouds that fill the air and other palaces floating in between.
When they had completed the rope and put their feet on the ground again, the figure made of spiritual power that had been leading the way in front of them turned around and stretched out his hand to point to a statue of a white tiger standing in front of the palace not far in front of them.
"This white tiger is the symbol of the White Tiger Temple, and it is also one of the symbols of our four temples." took Su You to the White Tiger Statue, and after solemnly bowing to the White Tiger Statue, he turned his head and continued with Su You: "The next road is for you to go by yourself, and after a while, you will follow the road behind the White Tiger Statue and go forward, and when you reach the end, you can meet the master of our hall, but you have to remember what I said before, don't be kicked out because of some small things." β
After saying that, the figure formed by this spiritual power turned into a spiritual power and went away with the wind in the direction it came.
Su You followed his words and walked towards the only road ahead after sparing the white tiger statue in front of him.
Not far in front of you is a palace with an open door, and you can directly look into the palace from the outside, and see a figure in a white robe sitting on a high platform at this moment, looking at everything under the stage condescendingly.
Thinking that the one who could sit in such a high position in the White Tiger Hall must be the hall master of the Four Holy Temples, Su You sped up and walked into the White Tiger Palace.
It's just that when Su You's feet had just crossed the threshold and was about to look around to see the scene inside the palace, a strange sound suddenly came from the high platform.
"Click... ClickΒ·Β·Β· Click..."
Quickly raised his eyes and looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw that the figure that was sitting on the high platform just now had fallen on the seat, and it could be clearly seen in the white robe that there was a pile of fragile bones inside.
"Just like the old man I saw in the white tower... It seems that there is indeed not a single living person here. β
Su You, who realized that there might be no survivors in the Four Temples, relaxed slightly, then raised his feet and walked up to the high platform in front of him, and took out the corpse that collapsed on the seat with only bones left from the white robe and took a closer look, "If it weren't for the fact that this place is full of spiritual power and is in a secret realm, I'm afraid that it would be difficult to leave even the bones, and now it can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune to be able to leave a complete corpse." β
After putting the skeleton back in its original position, and even helping to sit it up again, Su You bent down and bowed towards the corpse that he didn't know if it was the Lord of the Four Temples, and then set his eyes on this palace that had not shown the slightest dilapidation in the passage of time.
The palace is lined with bookshelves filled with books that look very old.
Su You walked to one of the bookshelves and wanted to pick up one of the books to flip through it, but found that these books would turn into slag and scatter all over the ground if they were touched.
It turns out that these books are not protected by spiritual power, and they have become extremely fragile in the passage of time, and any wind and grass may cause them to fall apart.
But there are also books that have been well preserved.
If you open them and look closely, you will find that these books record everything that happened during the period from the founding of the Four Temples to their complete extinction and even disappearance from the world.
Even if the new hall master is replaced.
Su You was able to know that this sect called the Four Temples was actually called the White Tiger Temple, and it was a branch of the real Four Temples, because the Four Temples of the family had only branched out from it after encountering some major changes, and they belonged to the same line as the other three branches called the Vermilion Bird Palace, the Green Dragon Palace, and the Xuanwu Palace, and they had always maintained contact with each other, and they also wanted to reunite and establish the Four Temples again.
However, people have good fortune and misfortune, and there are unforeseen circumstances.
The Four Temples have a profound heritage, but it does not mean that the White Tiger Hall that has been divided out can have such a deep and powerful heritage, and it was besieged by a large number of other clan forces not long after being divided, and even completely defeated the White Tiger Hall for a time, and it was about to disappear from the world at that time.
Therefore, in order to ensure that the incense of the White Tiger Hall could be continued, as well as the desire to re-establish the Four Temples, the hall master of the White Tiger Hall at that time resolutely chose to move the entire White Tiger Hall to the secret realm to hide, and decided to cultivate in the secret realm to improve his cultivation realm, and wait until he had the strength to compete with the clan forces in the outside world before leaving the secret realm to establish the White Tiger Palace.
"At this time, the White Tiger Hall actually had three powerhouses of the Triple Heaven Realm of the Life and Death Realm, as well as dozens of elders of the Nirvana Realm and hundreds of disciples of the Outer Gate and Inner Sect, no wonder the Lord of the White Tiger Hall at that time was so confident that he could re-establish the White Tiger Hall in the outside world, but why did the White Tiger Hall obviously have this strength, but why did it become what it is now?"
After seeing the powerful strength of the White Tiger Hall recorded in the books, Su You became more and more curious about what happened to the White Tiger Hall to become what it is in now, so he hurriedly went to look for other books.
Soon, in another well-preserved book, Su You found the root cause of the White Tiger Palace's eventual fall.
"Heavenly Demon Domain Demons... And so it was! β
As soon as he opened the book and didn't take a few glances, the few sentences in it had already confirmed the conjecture in Su You's heart, "No wonder the old guy I met before likes to use tricks behind his back, it turns out that in addition to his own lack of strength, there is also this reason." β
It turned out that this secret realm did not actually belong to the White Tiger Hall itself, but the White Tiger Hall found a secret realm that was most suitable to relocate the entire White Tiger Hall into, and they didn't even know what existed in this secret realm, but they were bent on making a comeback after becoming stronger.
However, just after the White Tiger Hall entered the secret realm and set up a seal at the entrance of the secret realm for those cultivators who had discovered the secret realm but could only let the cultivators below the Nirvana realm enter, a large group of Heavenly Demon Domain demons who had long been hiding in the depths of the secret realm made a move.
What the demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain are best at is using some strange yin tricks.
In the records of the books, these Heavenly Demon Domain demons first sneaked up on the disciples of the White Tiger Palace, and then disguised themselves as those disciples to lurk in the outer gate first, and then subtly devoured and controlled the souls and spirits of those outer disciples who had cultivated to a slightly lower realm, and then painted a gourd to attack the inner door of the White Tiger Palace.
Although the demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain failed to fully implement their hidden plan in the end, they also succeeded in provoking a war between themselves and the White Tiger Palace, and this war was still in the planning of another plan of the demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain.
Not counting the outer gate, although there were hundreds of people in the White Tiger Hall at the beginning, the number of Heavenly Demon Domain demons lurking in the secret realm was almost the same, and there were even three powerhouses in the realm of life and death.
The strength of the two sides is equal, and in this case, the demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain have been constantly using various yin tricks to devour and control the souls and spirits of the cultivators of the White Tiger Palace, and make them into puppets to deal with the White Tiger Palace.
In this way, it was the Heavenly Demon Domain Demons who had an advantage in numbers.
In the long run, the White Tiger Hall will definitely lose.
Soon, the White Tiger Hall realized that if he didn't leave the secret realm as soon as possible, or find a way to kill the three life and death realm powerhouses among the evil ghosts of the Heavenly Demon Domain as soon as possible, he would definitely lose.
So the hall master of the White Tiger Hall at that time made a decisive decision.
He actually decided to directly devote the strength of the entire sect to directly start a war with the evil ghosts of the Heavenly Demon Domain.
No one in the White Tiger Hall objected, and immediately under the leadership of his own hall master, he directly took the initiative to launch a general attack on the demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain.
But the cost of launching such a life-or-death attack is also enormous.
The demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain were all destroyed, but all the people in the White Tiger Hall were seriously injured and returned to the sect, and because the injuries were too serious, they died one after another soon after returning to the sect, leaving only the hall master of the White Tiger Hall at that time to rely on his own strong strength to support himself, and once time passed, he still could not escape the fate of death.
In this case, the hall master of the White Tiger Hall personally piled up the bones of the dead people one by one and arranged them into soldiers in armor on the steps.
Sent the only Elder who could still find a complete body to the White Tower.
"It turns out that the people I saw outside are all disciples or elders of the original White Tiger Palace..." After flipping through all the books on the shelves, Su You couldn't help but feel respectful, "It's just that he didn't even kill the demons of the Heavenly Demon Domain until he died, and if the entrance to the secret realm was not discovered, I am afraid that these secrets would be buried underground." β
Putting the books in his hand back on the shelf, Su You, who had already fully understood the history of the White Tiger Palace, was about to leave.
"Click..."
The bones of the hall master of the White Tiger Hall that he had just straightened suddenly shattered and collapsed.
It's just that when Su You looked up again and wanted to put it back again.
"Hum..."
A white-gold ball of light floated from the bones of the hall master of the White Tiger Palace.
In the light cluster, you can clearly see the figure of a young white tiger.
It was also at this time.
A vague figure appeared from the bones of the hall master of the White Tiger Palace, and he walked directly in front of Su You with that light cluster in his arms, and said with a slight smile: "It seems that you are the person I have been waiting for." β
"Someone you've been waiting for?" Su You was puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "You are the hall master of the White Tiger Palace?" Am the person you're waiting for? Why? β
"Hehehehehe... That's right, I am the corpse you see in front of you, that is, the hall master of the White Tiger Hall in your mouth. The hall master of the White Tiger Hall still smiled and said: "As for why I said that you are the person I have been waiting for, it is because the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps of the White Tiger Hall are not something that ordinary people can step on, only those who are really related to my White Tiger Palace, or those who are related to the Four Holy Temples, can step on, if it is someone else, they will be suppressed by the spiritual power of the powerhouse of the realm of life and death, but I think you should not have been suppressed by such a powerful coercion, right?" β
Hearing what the hall master of the White Tiger Hall said, Su You suddenly realized why he was so relaxed when he walked the nine hundred and ninety-nine steps.
But then he asked, "What does it mean to have a fate?" β
"The answer is in you." The hall master of the White Tiger Hall stretched out his hand and pointed at Su You's heart, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised a gentle smile like an elder.
"In my body?"
Su You looked down, didn't this just point to the location of his Chaos Dao Heart? So he hurriedly looked up at the other party, and said with a little eagerness: "You mean the Chaos Dao Heart?" Yin and Yang Open Heaven Record? β
The hall master of the White Tiger Hall did not answer, but nodded with a smile on his face.
This only made Su You even more curious, what is the connection between the Yin and Yang Open Heaven Record, the Chaos Dao Heart and the White Tiger Palace, or the Four Temples.
