Chapter 102: The Jungle Eats the Strong, Pursuing Strength
"It seems that this is the little temple he is talking about. ”
Luobei traveled more than fifty miles in the direction pointed by the villain on the black wood guide car, and a small temple appeared in front of him, with two bays, no more than a dozen zhang in length and width, it looked like it had been a long time, and grass had grown on the eaves, and now it was late autumn, and the grass was withered, shaking in the wind.
The two temple doors were in tatters, and even the bolts had rotted and fallen off.
There were originally three words on the plaque on the temple door, but the paint surface was mottled, and I could only vaguely identify what the temple was, and the first word was not clear.
"This may be the mountain temple built by the nearby mountain people, but now the world is in chaos, and the mountain people themselves are too busy to take care of themselves, and this mountain temple is also rarely visited, and it has been abandoned for a long time. ”
Luo Bei entered the temple gate, and saw a statue of the god of gold armor sitting in the hall, it did not look like an ordinary Buddha statue nor the land, the incense burner and other things in front of the statue of the god of gold armor were also gone, the dust and fallen leaves in the whole hall were suddenly made a clanging sound, it turned out to be a window behind the hall was also broken, and the mountain wind blew and made a loud noise. Those fallen leaves everywhere should have blown in through this air window.
"This statue of the Golden Armor God seems to be solid, is there any mechanism?"
Luo Bei looked left and right, and then looked carefully around the golden armor statue in the hall. He found that although this temple had been dilapidated, it may have been a prosperous era when it was built in the past, and this statue of the golden armor god stretched out his fingers and bounced on it to be dull, and it seemed to be solid throughout, and even the base was made of a whole mountain stone.
Luo Bei carefully looked at the statue of the golden armor for a long time, and he couldn't see where the mechanism was, and suddenly found that there was a shallow mark on the base of the statue of the golden armor, which seemed to be left by a heavy object dragging.
"This mark seems to be the position of the previous statue, someone moved this statue, and when it was put back, it was not completely placed in its original position, so this mark was exposed. ”
As soon as he saw this mark, Luo Bei's heart suddenly flashed with inspiration, picked the position of the idol's arm, and pushed it to the side hard.
Although this statue is not big, it at least weighs hundreds of catties, and it is also because of this weight and the awe of the mountain people for the statue, so the things in it are lost, but no one dares to touch this statue. But Luo Bei is now using all his strength, this idol is not particularly heavy for him, and as soon as he exerts his strength, this idol is slowly put down by him and falls to the side from the base.
"Sure enough, it was in the belly of this idol. ”
This statue is indeed solid, and it seems to be made of copper and lead, black and yellow, but the bottom is up, and it should be a two-foot square hole dug out by the man in blue cloth with some sharp blade. As soon as the statue was put down, Luo Bei saw a small camphor wood box inside.
"This is supposed to be the map of the Divine Owl Cave Mansion. ”
Luo Bei opened the camphor wood box and saw that it was a golden booklet, but when it was unfolded, it was a gold leaf, I don't know if it was made of gold mixed with other pure gold, thin and tough, and foldable. This thin gold leaf seems to be painted with some images of mountains and rivers, which are indeed shaped like maps, but on the graphics of these mountains and rivers, there are some strange runes shaped like tadpoles, which are completely different from all the ancient characters that Luobei has seen, and they can't understand the meaning at all.
"The blue-clothed man is right, even if Liu Daodan gets this map, if he can't understand the meaning of these strange runes, he doesn't know where this map refers to, and it is impossible to know where this Divine Cave Mansion is. ”
Liu Daodan deliberately plotted to seize this map, but he didn't expect that this map had never left this mountain forest, but was in the belly of this ordinary god statue. ”
Luo Bei thought of the Black Wind Ancestor and the blue-clothed man who had already fallen, and couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart again.
"En?" At this moment, Luo Bei suddenly became alert, felt the slightest sound of wind coming from his head, and when he looked up, he found that a big white python hung down from the hanging attic above his head, rolling towards him.
It turns out that there are hanging attics above the Buddha statues in Dafan temples, not leading to stairs, usually using long bamboo ladders to go up and down, which is used by people in the temple to pile up some scattered sundries. Such an attic is the most likely to have long insects to inhabit, there is a famous biography of Zhiyi has a record, there was a monk in the temple to practice bitter meditation, do not eat grains, only to fall leaves for food, suddenly one day to people said that they are fluttering like immortals, just one day can fly up. All the people in the temple did not believe him, and when they saw him sitting in front of the Buddha statue and chanting sutras, they found that he was really three feet above the ground, but he fell again. All the monks in the temple were surprised, but suddenly someone noticed that there seemed to be a huge black shadow above the attic, and when they saw it clearly, they found that it was a giant python. It turned out that the monk only fed on fallen leaves, and his body had no weight, and the python wanted to suck the monk directly into his mouth. And this monk didn't know it, and he thought that he was going to ascend soon.
At present, this temple is in the mountains and forests, but this attic also happens to inhabit such a big python, this big python usually feeds on the birds and beasts in the mountains and forests, and has been very huge, and now the statue of the god is down, it finds that there is a breath of life, so it rolls down at once, but it wants to swallow Luobei alive.
This volume is very fast, and before Luobei could release the Three Thousand Floating Slaughter, he was already caught by this white python, but Luobei was not panicked at all, because between this flutter and volume, Luobei already felt that this giant python was not a different species like Wuqiu, let alone cultivating the Inner Dan, and he was not enlightened at all.
"I'm hungry, if you want to eat me, I'll eat you!"
With a sneer in his heart, Luo Bei inhaled violently, and trembled all over, and the muscles and arms of his body exploded out at once, only to hear a few clicks, and the bones of this ordinary giant python were all pulled off by Luo Bei at once, and slipped to the ground like a mess of mud.
At this moment, Luo Bei himself was already extremely hungry and thirsty, and when he thought of the scene where the blue-clothed coarse cloth sweat was harmed by Liu Daodan because of his soft-heartedness, his heart hardened, and the sword light flashed, and he directly cut off the head of this giant python.
With the Black Wind Ancestor, Luobei also endured a lot of days of drinking blood, and he didn't make a fire at the moment, so he drank a burst of python blood, cut a snake meat and ate it.
As soon as his stomach was full, he rushed to the bloody air, and Luo Bei's indignant and violent mood slowly calmed down.
"What the master said is right, the rule of the Heavenly Dao is that the weak eat the strong. ”
Luo Bei looked at the body of the python in front of him, and felt a little more at this sentence in his heart.
Strength, for the first time, Luo Bei deeply felt how important strength is.
If he was just a mortal, he might have been swallowed by this python at this moment. If he has enough strength, if he encounters someone like Liu Daodan again, he will not have to stand by and watch.
"So far, there have been no people from the Beibi Sect and Gou Chen Tiandao nearby, and maybe they haven't discovered the fighting methods here. This attic is not bad, it is better to refine the true yuan of the Black Wind Ancestor here. ”
Luo Bei raised his eyes and looked at the hanging attic under the python, and instantly made up his mind.
After moving the python corpse to the mountain forest outside the temple, digging a pit and burying it, and then pushing the golden armor statue back to the base with all his might, Luo Bei jumped up to the hanging attic with a little bit on the statue.
The windows around this suspended attic have long been dilapidated, making a creaking sound in the mountain wind, and there is still a translucent snake skin on the ground on the side, which seems to be left by the big python when it molts, but Luo Bei didn't care, just slightly cleared out a space of one or two zhang square, and then sat down cross-legged and pinched the cultivation method of the delusional Heavenly Immortal Sutra.
The aura of heaven and earth in the mountains and forests here is also very thin, but the thinner it is, the more reassuring it is when Luo Bei cultivates, because if the aura is very abundant, as long as there are people who know a little bit about the aura of looking at qi, they can feel that the aura of heaven and earth is being absorbed, forming a funnel shape around the cultivator, and it is easy to see where someone is cultivating. It is difficult to see the changes in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in a place where the spiritual energy is thin like this.
Luo Bei was cultivating according to the cultivation method of the Delusional Heavenly Immortal Sutra at this moment, and after a week of circulation, the heaven and earth aura inhaled into his body was not even one-tenth of what he cultivated in his residence in Tianhao Peak of Shu Mountain. But when the inhaled Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and True Yuan surged through the Mud Pill Knowing Sea, and when the Black Wind Ancestor was concentrating on the sapphire-like True Yuan in his Mud Pill Knowing Sea, the sapphire-like True Yuan was slightly refined, and Luo Bei intuitively felt that the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and True Yuan he had inhaled had suddenly increased dozens of times, just like a small stream, it suddenly became a surging river.
Luo Bei had the experience of refining the Wu Qi Neidan, and he was not frightened at all when he encountered such a situation, but continued to drive the aura and true yuan to run in the body according to the method of delusional Heavenly Immortal Sutra, but on the second Zhou Tian, a substantial golden silk true element was smelted out, and as soon as it was integrated into the sea of knowledge, Luo Bei immediately felt that the countless golden stars in his sea of knowledge suddenly brightened, but it was slightly fused with a trace of the true yuan of the Black Wind Ancestor, and the true yuan that Luo Bei had lost before was all filled up at once.
"There is so much difference between me and these masters who dominate the world. ”
At this time, Luo Bei clearly felt the gap between himself and a person with a high cultivation like the Black Wind Ancestor.
Originally, when cultivating the Delusional Heavenly Immortal Sutra, this kind of perception could easily trigger the fear barrier, because the inner demons when cultivating the Delusional Heavenly Immortal Sutra could magnify people's feelings tenfold or dozens of times. It will give people a fear obstacle that they are too small in comparison to be able to cultivate to the level of others. But after these dozens of days of tempering, Luo Bei's heart has been sharpened more firmly, coupled with what he has seen and heard in the past few days, Luo Bei, who has a deep understanding of what Yuan Tianyi said, is thirsty for strength more than ever, coupled with the feeling of the invincible sword intent in the Three Thousand Floating Slaughter, the current Luo Bei is full of courage and perseverance, and the momentum of moving forward.
Therefore, this kind of inner demon attacked, and even the illusion that ordinary cultivators would see did not appear at all, and it was easily broken by Luobei.
And Luo Bei also found that what the Black Wind Ancestor had focused on him was a completely pure True Yuan, which was completely different from the Inner Pill mixed with mottled medicinal power, and now the speed of refining and fusing the Black Wind Ancestor True Yuan could be said to be more than ten times faster than the previous speed of refining the Black Wind Inner Dan.
