When you really step into the stone hall, the whole stone hall gives people the feeling that it is not as cold as standing outside the stone gate, but the stone hall exudes a peaceful atmosphere.

It can be said that the entire stone hall does not have the slightest sense of crisis, some are just calm and peaceful, which will make people involuntarily relax their vigilance, as if they are returning home, because there is a familiar smell of home, so it will dispel all the tension in the bottom of the heart.

Of course, there are still people who feel that this feeling is inappropriate, like Christine, who is very interested in the soul, and she feels that the peaceful atmosphere is not safe.

Therefore, Christine leaned close to Lecius and whispered: "Lucius, I think everyone should be careful, the atmosphere here is too calm and peaceful, such a stone hall has existed for so long, and I think it is very inappropriate to be calm and peaceful at the moment." ”

Listening to Christine's reminder, Lucius smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is no danger here, and soon you will see the reason for the peaceful atmosphere." ”

Christine was shocked when she heard this, and at the same time, she was curious about what Lucius said, exuding a peaceful atmosphere.

After the Tin Man stepped into the stone hall at Lucius, he turned around and tried to lead them deeper into the stone hall.

Lucius didn't have any worries, just quietly followed behind the tin man, as for the others, naturally they didn't dare to leave the team at will, so they could only follow Lucius's side.

Step by step to the depths of the stone hall, with the gradual deepening, the stone hall also presents a variety of different scenes, to the surprise of everyone, standing outside the stone gate does not seem to be much big stone hall, but when you really go inside, you will find that the stone hall is really very deep.

There are stone statues in the stone hall, and the placement of those stone statues looks like a group of people worshipping something devoutly.

Each stone statue is carved to lifelike and the surface is carefully polished, and it would be difficult to think of them as cold if it weren't for the cold cold that the statues look like.

As Lucius progressed, they went deeper. You will find that the stone statues on both sides are more and more dense, but although the number of stone statues has increased, it is not difficult to see that the stone statues are still arranged in a staggered manner, and each stone statue has a gap between each other.

And the position of those stone statues seems to be very particular, which can ensure that there is space between each stone statue, and at the same time, those stone statues will not block each other, and the face of each stone statue will not be blocked, and they can see the deepest part of the entire stone hall through the staggered space between each other.

Follow behind the Tin Man. Lecius looked at the scattered stone statues, and especially noticed some of the lines on the surface of the stone statues, as well as the notches on their feet.

Lucius suddenly said to the Tin Man, "It seems that these stone statues should be the earliest formations, right? ”

The Tin Man's pace suddenly froze, and then he stopped, turned to look at Lucius, and the ancient formation in his chest spoke: "Have you seen it already?" Yes, these stone statues are left by the former sages, and the stone statues in the entire hall are the earliest ancient formations. ”

Lucius nodded in response, "Hmm." Sure enough, I have to admit that these former sages of the ancient oriental civilization are really very powerful. ”

"Click" just as Lucius's words fell. Suddenly there was a sound of metal footsteps in front of me, and then I saw that at the end of the stone steps, three iron men with the same iron men appeared, but they looked like the three iron people. It still seems to have an internal mechanism.

Seeing the three tin men standing at the end of the stone steps, Lucius frowned slightly and looked at the ancient array and asked, "What's going on? There are other tin men here?"

The will of the ancient array said very calmly: "Yes, there are four iron robots here. They were left behind by your teacher, and then I transformed one of them, the one you saw, and carved the core array into his body. ”

Rusiuston felt a little strange: "According to what you said, they should have lost motivation a long time ago, why can those three guys still move?"

The iron-skinned man who carried the will of the ancient array suddenly spoke up at this time: "This qiē is all my fault, it is because I did not listen to the words of the prayer and did not completely destroy the formation diagram of the ancient array, and as a result, those three guys, with the help of the ancient formation that lost their will, successfully gained energy." ”

At this time, the will of the ancient array opened his mouth again and said to the iron-skinned man: "Array, it's not your fault, in fact, you and them are the same kind after all, you are like brothers, you can't bear to let them be abandoned, it is also a matter of course, I didn't control the energy of the ancient array." ”

When the ancient formation will "pray" and the iron man "array" dialogue, everyone vaguely understood something.

Christine first sarcastically said: "I see, it turns out that you want to borrow our hands to help you get rid of those three guys, I knew that you two didn't have any good intentions." ”

Hearing Christine's sarcasm, the Tin Man Formation opened his mouth to argue: "It's not about praying, it's the way I came up with, those three guys get energy, they are constantly eroding the ancient array, trying to control the ancient array, if they succeed and get the things in the ancient array, praying will be dangerous." ”

Lucius stared at the three tin men at the end, then looked at the tin man "array" and the ancient array will "pray", and said with a long smile: "It seems that the purpose of you four robots is not to protect here, but to break through the ancient array and get something in the center of the ancient array?"

It wasn't until this moment that everyone suddenly understood why the Iron Man and the Ancient Array Will would be so hostile to the Founder of the Sanctuary before.

It seems that the Founder of the Sanctuary has been here a long time ago, and is trying to get the center of this Ancient Array, what those former sages of the ancient Eastern civilization used to leave behind by the Ancient Array Seal.

In Lucius's opinion, I am afraid that it is because of the ancient array left by the predecessors of the ancient civilization of the East, and the founder has no way to break the ancient array, so he left four iron-clad robots, wanting to wait for the ancient array to be self-confident and weathered, and let the four robots seize the things sealed in the ancient array.

However, the founders did not expect that after thousands of years of continuous convergence and evolution of energy, the ancient array would finally produce its own will.

After the ancient array developed a will, he sensed the threat of the four robots to him, and secretly transformed one of the robots. Engrave your core array into the mech's body.

Lucius stared at the Ancient Formation Prayer in the chest of the Iron Man Formation, and said with a smile: "Although you have carved the core formation into the body of the formation, in fact, you still can't leave here, and you still need to use the entire huge ancient array to maintain your mind, so those three robots are still a great threat to you." ”

"In front of the stone gate, you first tested us with words, wanting to see if I, the inheritor of the founder, were sent by the founder, and confirmed that I was not sent by the founder, and my philosophy was different from that of the founder. You let us in, and you want to lend me my hand to help you get rid of the three robots. ”

At this time, both the Iron Formation and the Ancient Formation no longer concealed it, and said directly to Lucius: "Yes, that's what we think. ”

Qi then spoke: "Actually, you should also know very well that although I used the body of the formation to carve the core formation diagram into his body, the ancient formation is too complicated. It's impossible for me to completely carve the entire Ancient Array into the body of the Array, so I need to get the Array to get something in the center of the Ancient Array. ”

After listening to the prayer, Caroline spoke, "Speaking so. In fact, what is sealed in the center of the ancient array is also very important to you?"

Shadow suddenly asked, "What is it?"

The Iron Formation and the Ancient Formation suddenly fell silent, as if they didn't know how to answer, or that they didn't want to tell them about that thing now.

Seeing the hesitation of the array and prayer. Christine teased, "Looks like you still don't believe us, and you're worried that we're going to snatch that thing, right?" I'm more curious, what is that that makes you so cautious?"

The array and prayer hesitated for a long time, and finally the prayer still spoke: "Okay, I'll tell you, in fact, the entire ancient array is sealed with my spirit. ”

After hearing the prayer, everyone present was stunned, and they didn't understand what the prayer meant.

But Lucius immediately understood, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, I just said, even if the ancient array has existed for tens of millions of years, how can it be possible to have its own will for no reason? It seems that you are not the will of the ancient array, but the will of the sealed spirit. ”

Qi didn't expect that Lucius actually understood his words, and actually knew the existence of the spirit, and he was suddenly a little surprised.

Seeing this, Lucius continued: "Don't be surprised, you should know that before I entered the Holy Realm, I used to follow an old alchemist, and you should know that alchemists in the West usually study some strange things, so they will collect a lot of information. ”

"It just so happened that there were some records about the East in the old guy's library, which was a classic left by the ancient civilization of the East, I couldn't learn magic at that time, and I liked to study the strange books of the old guy when I had nothing to do, so I happened to see the classics of the ancient civilization of the East. ”

"In those classics, it was said that there were two greatest contributions of the ancient civilization of the East, one was the so-called qi, and the other was the spirit. ”

"The ancient Eastern civilization used guò to analyze the body of living beings, and discovered the qi stored in the body of living beings, and through the route of those qi traveling, they created a unique way of cultivation that belongs to them, which is somewhat similar to the fighting qi of the West, but it is different from the fighting qi and is very mysterious. ”

Another discovery of the ancient civilization of the East is the so-called spirit, which is not the soul of a living being, but a very ideological derivative, so to speak, somewhat similar to the gods, through the worship of the spirit, so that the spirit can absorb the power of faith, obtain a strong power, and feed back to the worshippers. ”

It's just that the spirits created by the sages of the ancient oriental civilizations can ignore the power of faith, but absorb the natural power of heaven and earth to strengthen their own bodies, so as to gradually evolve their will, and then turn into a unique spiritual creature that resembles a god but not a god, and a man and a person. ”

After listening to Lucius's explanation, everyone present was shocked, and the Ancient Formation Prayer in the iron body of the formation couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect that His Highness Lucius is so knowledgeable, even if it is a long-lost ancient civilization, you have also dabbled in it." ”

Lucius smiled a little helplessly: "This is also no way, at that time, I couldn't learn magic, I couldn't learn alchemy, and I couldn't practice Douqi, in addition to studying machinery, reading books became the only entertainment, so I read some strange books." ”

Qi smiled and said, "Your Highness doesn't have to be humble, in fact, erudition is also a kind of capital, and it is precisely because of your erudition that you can have the opportunity to surpass the founder." ”

Lecius smiled undeniably, and then asked, "So is your spirit now mature? Do you want to use the body of the array to become the container of your spirit?" But you should know very well that the mature spirit contains terrible energy, and you are sure that the body of the array can carry it?"

Lucius's words made Qi hesitate, in fact, Qi knew very well in his heart that the body of the array had already decayed, and it was rusty inside and out, and it was difficult to carry the power of a mature spirit.

It's just that there is no better way for her now, if she can't find the carrying equipment, I'm afraid she can only continue to stay in this dark stone hall.

The array seemed to sense the embarrassment of prayer, and immediately said firmly: "Pray, don't worry, my body can withstand it, you forgot it, we have tried many times, and my body's endurance has been greatly increased now, it will definitely be possible." ”

Lucius nodded in acknowledging the statement: "Yes, your body may be able to carry the energy of the spirit, but the infusion of the powerful energy of the spirit may directly destroy your own will." ”

The array was speechless for a moment, but Qi said a little excitedly: "No, no, then you will disappear." ”

After hearing the prayer, the array smiled calmly and said, "It's okay, I'm just an ordinary robot, and I'm also your enemy, so I shouldn't have saved zài in the first place." ”

Seeing that the array and prayer were comforting each other, Lucius suddenly coughed twice and said: "Ahem, in fact, you don't have to do this, I have a way, I can not hurt the two of you, and I can make the spirit successfully opened, and I can also give a body to Qi." ”

Hearing this, he was suddenly a little excited, and looked at Lucius and asked, "Really, really, you, can you help Qi get a new body?"

On the contrary, he was not excited, and asked Lucius in a low voice: "Your Highness Lucius, do you want to give me a mechanical body and let my spirit enter it?"

Seeing that both the array and the prayer seemed to want to refuse, Lucius smiled and said: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, I can assure you that I will never do anything wrong, it is just a mechanical container, and I can even make a mechanical body for you according to the requirements of your spirit." ”

Lucius's words made the array and prayer both heartbroken, in fact, they had been in contact with the rules of the plane through the ancient array over the years, and they knew Lucius very well, and knew that Lucius had the kind of ability he said.

But soon, Qi calmed down and asked Lucius: "Conditions, if you help me like this, there will definitely be conditions, right?"

"Conditions?" Lucius looked at Qi with a smile, he knew that Qi would definitely agree to him, and paused before saying, "Actually, the conditions are very simple, I only need you to help me complete the transformation of the entire Songjiang City." ”

Qi reacted instantly, and looked at Lucius in surprise: "You, do you want to break the ancient formation? You want to completely transform the entire Songjiang City, including here, and turn the entire Songjiang City into a fortress that belongs to you, so that no one can break through here?"

Lucius nodded and smiled, "Yes, that's it, how about it?" I can give you some time, you think about it slowly, I'll get rid of those three obstructive robots first." (To be continued......)
