Chapter 293: Ancient Gods
However, it was said that Lu Yang temporarily repelled the pursuit of the Soul Demon Elder with the Ember Extinguishing Divine Light, and crashed into the space inside this Yunmeng Immortal Palace with Zirong alone. But seeing the flashing light, Lu Yang instantly broke away from the impetus of the external space, and the whole person fell inside this gorgeous palace. The sword wings behind his back were retracted, and he fell to the ground in a whirlwind, but in an instant, blood sprayed wildly, and he couldn't stop breathing with the bronze ancient sword.
"How are you?"
Zirong's soul floated over, and he couldn't help but say to Lu Yang with concern. But seeing that Lu Yang spit out a few mouthfuls of blood and forced the blood-colored brilliance around his body out of his body, he waved his hand at him weakly, indicating that his injury was not in the way. Thanks to the Ziya Divine Stone's incomparably powerful recovery ability, Lu Yangzu could hold on.
What he wanted for this trip was this kind of oppressive force that was close to the limit, if it weren't for that, Lu Yang would not be able to absorb the piece of 'Yellow Spring Blood Crystal' that was stored in the sea of qi and obtained inside the Lechuan River. Although he was weak at this time, he still did not relax his tense nerves in the slightest. Because he has entered this unknown 'Yunmeng Immortal Palace', I don't know what mysteries and dangers are hidden here. So he didn't let his guard down on his surroundings.
At this time, he was already in the fairy palace, and he couldn't help but look at the surrounding environment cautiously. But seeing that inside this immortal hall, it is really a hidden treasure place that no one knows. Lu Yang saw a large number of priceless precious jewels, gold and silver being piled up everywhere, and on the gorgeous carved walls, all of them were inlaid with luminous orbs as large as goose eggs. It is these night pearls that emit a brilliant blue glow that illuminate everything inside the immortal hall.
Lu Yang was not very interested in these priceless jewels and jade artifacts. After looking around, I was not moved at all. He sat cross-legged on the ground, channeled the 'Nine Turning Heavenly Pill' in his body to his throat, and slowly exhaled it, recovering the huge mana he had consumed before. At the same time, he was also thinking about the secret hidden in the secret left by the Qingluo girl to Zirong.
He had previously passed through the spatial whirlpool drawn by the silver fish leaping in the middle of Dongting Lake, and then passed on the rainbow bridge formed by the rainbow fish, and came to this immortal hall. At this time, Lu Yang combined with the scale of this Yunmeng Immortal Palace in the outside world, it can be seen that the palace building where he stopped at this time is just a side hall embedded here. The bright night pearls around them stretched inward, seemingly in the silent darkness, guiding the way forward for Lu Yang and the others.
It's just that in the side hall, there are so many valuable and rare precious treasures. So if Lu Yang came to the main hall, what kind of fantastic treasures would he encounter? He couldn't guess that this Yunmeng Immortal Palace was the mansion left here by the god, but now that he had entered the palace, he could only venture forward, although there would be unknown dangers hidden in the road ahead.
"In the secret of the Qingluo girl's stay in the conch, it is said: Eight hundred caves, Yunmeng Cave. Fish vortex in the water, Hongqiao extradition. The spirit puppet turns nine times, burning incense and jade furnace. The painting wall is subtle, and the lake fairy shows the way...... We have crossed the Fish Vortex space and stepped on the Hongqiao of Extradition. However, the next 'Nine Turns of the Spirit Puppet' is so reasonable, and I am afraid that it will also be an obstacle that we will encounter next. Zirong stood aside and analyzed.
"No matter what, we always have to find the soul of Miss Qingluo. If you see where she is, then many of the mysteries buried here will also be solved. Let's go!" Lu Yang recovered some mana, jumped up, and summoned the bronze ancient sword in his hand in a dashing manner, smiled indifferently, and said.
"Hmm. I had no choice but to move forward. Zirong nodded and said. His body floated off the ground and followed Lu Yang. For Lu Yang, observe the situation that may occur at any time in the rear. Follow him and stride into the distance. Leaving the side hall where the treasure was hidden. And the more Lu Yang walked, the more he felt that something was wrong here. It can be seen that on the bright wall that was shaken by the night pearl, there were many narrative murals painted on the wall, but now that the years have passed, I don't know how many years have passed, and the painted danqing on the wall has also fallen off. Only some shades of depth can be faintly seen.
"These hieroglyphs look like ancient scripts that were handed down in ancient times. Because ancient people did not have a unified written symbol, they used pictures to convey the story to be told. It can be seen that these are all human beings, they are different from ordinary mortals, and below these pictograms representing human beings, they are all sketched like fish tails. I'm afraid that these murals depict a group of fish people. ”
Zirong was a great painter during his lifetime, and at this time, he was able to analyze some scenes on the murals just by looking at the stone carvings left on the left and right walls. He saw that among these pictographs representing people, they all drew stripes like fish's tails. Therefore, it was speculated that these people gathered here were the strange creatures and mermaids who had survived in the Xiangjiang River and even on the shore of Dongting Lake for eight hundred miles, and had long been extinct.
The merfolk are a primate group with a history older than the mermaids, who are now dying out. They are extremely intelligent, and they are able to control the water waves, swimming freely in the mountains and rivers. But the people of the mermaid clan in the painting are all bent over and bowing and worshipping. It seems to be worshipping a great ancestor in the middle of Dongting Lake.
It's a pity that time is merciless, and the information that can be glimpsed into this mural, which once represented the pinnacle of art, is now less than 12 out of 10. In addition, in ancient times, there were not so many schools of painting that were carried forward today. Therefore, Lian Zirong was unable to restore the scene in this mural in his mind.
He told Lu Yang that the god standing in the center of the lake, whose face had lost its face on the extinct murals, possessed immense strength and majesty, and that the god could even make the mermaid clan who had dominated the eight-hundred-mile cave court bow down. It can be seen that its faith and conquering ability are as high as the sky.
Hearing Zirong's explanation, Lu Yang thought carefully about the ancient books he had read. However, it is impossible to find any deities who appeared in Dongting Lake. Even, Lu Yang had never heard of the mermaid clan's past. It can be seen that the origin of this Yunmeng Immortal Palace is no longer traceable. Now he only has to take these mysteries and the task of finding the green snail girl, and go alone in the darkness ahead.
Walked a while. The murals on the surrounding walls gradually disappeared. Lu Yang and Zirong had already left this side hall. Embarked on the road of connecting the secret rooms of the incense room. And the strange thing is that every time Lu Yang turns a dim passage, the night pearl inlaid in it will emit a strong light, reflecting the road ahead brightly. When Lu Yang turned seven roads, all of a sudden, an extreme sense of crisis instantly made Lu Yang's hairs stand on end, and he involuntarily guarded the bronze ancient sword on his chest, and the whole person was like a cheetah ready to attack, waiting for it.
At this time, the tunnel in front of it was in the shape of circling outside, and was built outside the palace. The walls are completely transparent, reflecting the outside lake bottom, fish shuttling and algae dense. The walls and ceiling of this transparent tunnel are made of lavish white crystal. At the bottom of Dongting Lake, the aquarium passes through, and the magnificent scenery of the turbulent undercurrent is in full view. And between the bricks and tiles under his feet, there was a trembling sensation. It was as if something had come to life at the bottom of the tunnel, and it began to drill up to the top of the dirt beneath its feet!
"Oh no, something is coming out of the ground!"
Lu Yang's heart was shocked, this place was narrow, if there was really a living creature guarding the Immortal Palace, then it would be impossible to use it against the enemy in this small space. He didn't wait for the crawling monsters to come out, he turned around and walked away, his feet floating and shadowy, making a turn in the narrow tunnel with each step.
However, with the true method, he seemed to sense that those monsters that should have been thrown away rushed over at a faster speed than Lu Yang, and in the perception, their bodies seemed to break through the wall as if they were unrestricted, shuttling in a straight line in the twists and turns of the tunnel, and they crashed towards Lu Yang at a rapid speed!
The next moment, Lu Yang suddenly stopped, stepped on the ground, and the true law instantly urged, rushing straight to the top of the tunnel as high as one person. Below that, the stone walls that had been thick and dignified suddenly cracked. A strange monster covered in white bandages strode out, and without looking, it was punched out!
The punch was as powerful as an iron cannon. Straight towards Lu Yang, who was suspended like a spider at the top of the tunnel. However, Lu Yang's reaction was extremely fast, and he dodged away in an instant, turned his head sideways, and flashed the brute force punch of this strange man in a thrilling way. And this punch just went straight ahead, but the power was surprisingly great, and it blasted the bricks and tiles at the top of the tunnel to the ground, smashing the dust on Lu Yang's body.
Suddenly encountering this strange man of unknown origin in the narrow space, Lu Yang didn't have time to think about it at all, he directly spread his body, and rushed straight down from the top of the tunnel like a goshawk. With all his might, he instantly crushed the strange man to the ground, and before he could react, he swung his sword and stabbed it into the chest. But this sword goes down, like a defeat in the middle. Didn't hurt the weirdo for half a minute. On the contrary, Lu Yang was grabbed by his arms, thrown out with a huge force, and slammed into the wall on the side, making Lu Yang almost faint in pain.
But Lu Yang's body was also surrounded by the Ziya Divine Stone to protect his body, and he did not suffer serious internal injuries. He grinned and rubbed his back as he stood up from the rubble. But I found that in the corridors in all directions, there were green and faint balls of light floating out, and the balls of light were like beating hearts, and after the brilliance emerged, it changed into a strange person who was no different from the humanoid monster. Shaking his body, he punched at Lu Yang.
