Chapter 43: Enter the Cave Ruins
He didn't plan to cultivate the second form of the Eight Swords of Wind Control here, the Windless Slash, this form was not something that his current cultivation could achieve.
Next, he still frequently used the Wind Howling Slash, killing the blood-crowned green silk snakes that attacked him one by one, all of them under the Red Ink Knife.
When he stood in front of a tuyere cave, it was already noon the next day, and at this time, the blood-crowned green silk snake also knew how powerful he was, and did not sneak attack again.
The wind in the wind cave canyon was blowing from the wind vent in front of him, and the wind speed exceeded three times that of the canyon, and he could only hide on both sides of the wind vent, barely stabilizing his body.
"With such a strong wind, even a strong person in the Flesh Refining Realm would be difficult to pass through easily, who knows if the wind inside is even stronger. Feeling the wind speed of the tuyere, Lin Ze was shocked.
According to the tips on the ancient skin scroll, it is the minimum requirement for cultivation to reach the skin refining realm, and if you can't even pass this outlet, it is obviously impossible.
Lin Ze hid on the side of the tuyere, waiting quietly, and soon a day passed, and the wind speed of the tuyere still did not change at all.
He simply sat cross-legged on the spot, while observing the wind howling and chopping, while observing the changes in the wind at the tuyere, and when he was hungry, he took out the prepared dry food and ate a little indiscriminately.
Two days, three days...... Ten days.
During this period, he did not leave half a step except for a hunting trip.
Late at night on the eleventh day, when Lin Ze was half-asleep, his body shook suddenly, and he opened his eyes suddenly, even if he slept these days, he was half-asleep, and he would wake up at the slightest movement.
At this time, the wind force of the tuyere decreased suddenly, and he almost did not hesitate and rushed directly in.
He waited for nearly twelve days, and finally waited for this opportunity, so naturally he wanted to give it a try.
Raising his speed to the limit, the true qi in his body also started to work at this moment, turning into a warm current flowing to his feet, and the speed doubled again.
After more than ten breaths, he came to the depths of the tuyere, in front of him was a conical passage, and at the end of the passage was a narrow crack, and the widest part of the crack was only a palm thick, which was not accessible to people at all.
On each side of the crack there is an irregular stone platform, and in the center of the stone platform is a raised ball the size of an egg, which emits a dark red light in the dark underground space.
Lin Ze only had time to check these things, and a terrifying strong wind blew out from the crack at the end of the cone passage, blowing him directly out.
At the same time as the strong wind appeared, Lin Ze knew that it was not good, the space in this cave was not able to hide at all, and he was directly blown out of the wind outlet, and his body smashed heavily on a cliff wall of the canyon, smashing a human-shaped pit on it.
Lin Ze couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, as if he was seriously injured.
The body slid along the cliff wall and fell to the ground, Lin Ze did not rush in again this time, but retreated to the mouth of the canyon.
If it weren't for the golden scales to protect him, the impact just now would have cost him half his life.
"Sure enough, it's not so easy to enter the ruins of the cave. Lin Ze was secretly glad that he hadn't ignored the hints on the ancient leather scroll and came over in advance.
"From the time I came here to the time the wind weakened, it was about fifteen days, and the weak wind lasted less than twenty breaths. ”
"Whether it's the same as I deduced or not, rest outside for a few days, wait for the injury to recover, and then go to the tuyere to guard. ”
"Moreover, even if you enter the tuyere, there is no entrance to the ruins. ”
Lin Ze glanced around a little before, but he didn't find the suspected ruin entrance, so he had to find the ruin entrance during this time, and try to open it the next time he entered.
Thinking of this, Lin Ze lowered his head again and pondered.
"Those two stone platforms are also very strange, do you want to drip blood on the ball in the middle?"
As soon as this thought came together, Lin Ze shook his head, this is a modified cave mansion ruins, if it is blood, not everyone can open it when they come here?
If this is the case, it would have been discovered and opened a long time ago, and it would have been waiting for him? You know, the terrain here is extremely special, and anyone who has been here once will remember it vividly.
This place has not yet penetrated into the depths of the Dragon Horn Mountain Range, even if the martial artists of the Skin Refining Realm are a little lucky, they can reach it safely.
"So, with blood, it definitely won't work. ”
"By the way, I saw the ball in the middle of the stone platform before, emitting a dark red light, and someone must have experimented with blood dripping a long time ago. ”
"Blood doesn't work, so what do you need?"
Lin Ze found a big rock, sat on it, and pondered.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Since blood is not good, then is it okay to use True Qi?" I am afraid that there are not many people who can have True Qi in the Wind and Thunder Continent. ”
Thinking of this, Lin Ze couldn't sit still, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
It took him a long time before he suppressed the excitement in his heart and began to rest and recuperate.
Four days later, Lin Ze replenished about ten days of dry food, ready to enter that outlet again.
This time, he didn't make any more stops in the canyon, and it took him a quarter of an hour to come to the side of the tuyere, and like the last time, he waited while recuperating from his injuries.
Time passed quickly, another ten days passed, and in the middle of the night of the tenth day, the wind at the tuyere weakened again, and Lin Ze rushed in without hesitation.
This time, it took him twelve breaths to reach the deepest part of the tuyere, and the thirteenth breath was already standing in the middle of the two round platforms, pressing his hands on the two raised balls at the same time.
At the fourteenth breath, he began to mobilize the true qi in his body.
True Qi was running slowly in his body, flowing to his hands, he never knew that the flow of True Qi was so slow, and cold sweat slipped down his forehead.
In the sixteenth breath, the true qi came to the arm.
At the eighteenth breath, I came to the wrist.
"Quick, it has to be a little faster. Lin Ze was anxious in his heart, his teeth were creaking at him, but the true qi in his body seemed to have to fight against him, and his speed did not increase at all.
In the nineteenth breath, the true qi finally came to the fingertips.
In the twentieth breath, true qi is infused into the two spheres.
Whew.......
The roaring wind suddenly appeared, instantly filling the entire space in the cave, Lin Ze felt that his eardrums were about to be cracked, and subconsciously closed his eyes.
"Hey, how come I didn't get blown away. When he felt something unusual, Lin Ze opened his eyes, only to see that he was wrapped in a faint film of light, blocking out the surrounding wind.
In front of him, the narrow air vent had opened at some point, revealing an entrance that could be passed by one person, Lin Ze took a step, and the light film on the surface of his body also moved forward.
Lin Ze breathed a sigh of relief, stepped into the passage of the air outlet, and his figure disappeared.
As he entered, the passage creaked, and slowly closed again, turning into the original crack, from which the wind blew violently, and the cavern was filled with whistling sounds.
