44. Ruins
On both sides of the empty hall are two neat rows of stone pillars, on which are depicted all kinds of ancient spirit animals. The ground was a glowing obsidian, with occasional wavy runes flickering under the lines of the slate.
Lin Ning walked along the stone pillar towards the hall. The Crystal Palace is very quiet, although it is as polished as new in its heyday under the influence of the formation.
But because there is not the slightest anger of people, this palace gives people more of a feeling of loneliness and depression.
It's as if it also knows that it has long been forgotten by the whole world.
Lin Ning walked around the hall and walked to the innermost part of the hall. There is a statue as tall as the main hall. At the foot of the statue is an altar.
Lin quietly looked at the altar for a while, then returned the same way and returned to Gu Tuo, Xiao Yuze, and Su Cheng.
Su Cheng's complexion at this time had already improved, no longer pale as before, and regained some blood color. Seeing Lin Ning come back, her eyes bent like water, and she smiled: "What did His Highness find?"
"A statue, and an altar. Lin Ning said. "It seems that this is the end of the secret realm. If expected, this hall should be the most important building of this sect. ”
Gu Tuo and Xiao Yuze also fully recovered at this time, and the two listened carefully to the conversation between Lin Ning and Su Cheng.
"Statues? What kind of statues. Xiao Yuze asked.
Lin Ning gestured the distance from the ground to the dome and said, "Such a tall statue is carved with a woman. She paused and said, "The altar is nothing special, it's just that there are a few seated immortal cultivators around, and the residual aura is very strong. ”
"By the way, there are murals on the walls along the way. It depicts the origins and rise and fall of this sect. Lin Ning added.
"If you take back the images of these murals, you will get a lot of school points. ”
Gu Tuo was happy, the higher the cultivation level of the Shangqing Sect disciple, the greater the demand for sect points, and the sect points obtained this time were enough for him to exchange for a spirit sword that he had always wanted.
"In addition to points, there should be a legacy in this secret realm. I just don't know what type of inheritance it is. Xiao Yuze said.
Different from the scattered cultivators, the disciples of the Shangqing Sect, especially those like Xiao Yuze and Su Cheng, are both sons of the family and famous disciples. Immortal cultivators like them are very picky about the so-called inheritance. Not all inheritances are worthy of their personal inheritance.
"Just go and see, you're almost rested, right?" Su Cheng patted his sleeve and stood up. As soon as she stretched out her right hand, an ancient piano appeared above her palm.
Xiao Yuze smiled slightly, and the Zhengyang Sword floated out of his body and levitated in front of him. His sword fingers swept over the Zhengyang Sword, causing a soft buzz.
Gu Tuo took out the longbow that shone red, and his black eyes reflected the treasure light of the magic weapon, making his expression more calm. "Su Cheng, Miao Tianyin. ”
Su Cheng smiled slightly when he heard this, raised his hand to stroke the strings, and the sound of the Ling Ling Qin poured out, and Lin Ning only felt an indescribable spiritual power envelop his body.
All the exhaustion seemed to be swept away, leaving only the inexhaustible strength and abundant spiritual power in the body.
Lin Ning looked at Su Cheng's qin with bright eyes, this is simply a buff! Su Cheng is really a divine assistant.
Her thinking couldn't help but diverge a little, saying that they were a four-person combination, with two DPS and one support...... Well, I also brought a trumpet. Barely a kitchen knife team?
Without waiting for Lin Ning to continue to diverge, they had already begun to walk inside.
"Look at the murals on the walls. That woman must be the same person as the sculpture you just saw, right?"
Xiao Yuze took out an ever-bright lamp and shone it all the way to the mural, so that Su Cheng could leave an image. His last sentence was to Lin Ning.
The mural, like the previous waters, has the ubiquitous Mizusawa flowers. The woman seemed to be the incarnation of Mizusawa flowers, starting a sect and cultivating successors. As a result, the sect flourished.
After a long time, the style of clothing of the figures in the mural and the background of the era changed significantly, and the woman later seemed to sit down on her own. This sect also declined because of it.
"It's a person. Lin Ning thought for a while and said, "But maybe...... She is God. ”
"Gods?" Xiao Yuze and Su Cheng looked at each other, and even Gu Tuo in front of him stopped.
"You say she's a god, how do you judge?" Judging from the murals they saw, it makes sense to say that this woman is a powerful cultivator. But the gods are a little far away.
After all, in their impression, the gods were all high, how could they be so close to the monks like this woman.
Lin Ning walked to a mural, the woman in the mural stood in the center, and there was a circle of monks from this sect sitting around her, the monks were all kneeling on their knees with very pious expressions, and their bodies were glowing.
Lin Ning pointed at these monks and said, "You see, what they are doing is the divine prayer ceremony, praying for the power of the gods to descend on themselves. And the source of their strength is this woman. ”
"It's more evident at the altar. Lin Ning didn't say more, and when they saw the altar, they would understand.
Finally finishing the long hall, Lin Ning and the others came to the innermost part of the hall. Here, the space of the main hall suddenly opened up, and there were no endless stone pillars.
Beneath the shimmering water-colored dome, you can see a majestic statue at first sight.
The woman's complexion was gentle and amiable, and she was looking down at all beings, with a solemnity that could not be forced.
She stretched her hands high and low in front of her, palms upward, as if she wanted to catch something, as if she was about to spread grace. The wide sleeves embroidered with Mizusawa flowers hang down in front of the body, as if curled by the breeze, and the folds create a smooth pattern.
At her feet was an altar, which occupied the center of the hall. There were dense runes carved on the top of the altar, and the formation was extremely complicated, and Lin Ning couldn't understand it at all. She has not yet been exposed to this knowledge.
Su Cheng became interested as soon as he saw the altar, and took two steps closer to watch it carefully.
"This altar, it seems that it is not for sacrificing itself, but for gaining strength......" she frowned, the formation on this altar was too complicated, and it was very different from the current formation.
Su Cheng could only understand a small part, but the fact that the power was dispersed from the middle to the periphery of the altar was obvious and impossible to ignore.
Around the altar were six seated monks, all of whom were members of the sect judging by their robes.
"The residual strength of these monks is too terrifying. Unlike Su Cheng, Xiao Yuze was obviously more interested in those monks. "There is a feeling that they were at least immortals when they were alive. ”
Gu Tuo withdrew his gaze from the statue and echoed: "If it weren't for the immortals, their bodies would have been weathered a long time ago, and they wouldn't have stayed until now." ”
You must know that even if this secret realm was left in the late Age of the Gods, it is at least 50,000 years ago. They seem to have been lucky, and this secret realm may indeed be the inheritance of a true god.
