Chapter 719: In front of the Secret Palace
With stiff legs and straight eyes, he followed a group of important ministers along the mountain formed by the body of the candle dragon and walked down the mountain. From time to time, there was a low, powerful, long-lasting belching sound in the long stream of people, and the smell of fishy and bloody came and went, and from time to time the weakened priests and civil officials grunted, their stomachs stretched too full.
Don't beg as you walked, and looked back at the dark bear hall on the top of the mountain, squatting like a monster.
The banquet of the Emperor of the Great Yu people seems to be a joke, absurd to the extreme. But such a ridiculous and absurd feast has lasted from ancient times to the present, and none of the elders of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces and even the tribal alliance and those princes and clans have opened their mouths to make any comments on this feast, and generations of Dayu officials have continued the tradition to this day by gnawing on half-baked flesh and whole cabbage.
Terrible traditions, stubborn customs, after this feast, Beg suddenly felt that Dayu is a solid stone, it stubbornly maintains its original style, no matter the passage of time, no matter the changes of the world, it is always it.
Beg secretly looked at the civil and military officials around him, except for Ji Ao and his subordinate generals, although the rest of the people were not very comfortable in their stomachs, their expressions were all the same indifferent, and they could even be described as indifferent. For them, although the taste of this feast is a little unpalatable, these things are traditions, and traditions must be observed, just as people need to breathe, and fish cannot do without water, and these courtiers of Dayu cannot do without these traditions.
"Terrible country, terrible people!" Beg secretly sighed in his heart, when tradition becomes a habit, this is the most terrible force in the world.
A long stream of people slowly walked down the mountain, and several priests wearing black sè cloaks suddenly flashed on the side of the road. They stopped in front of Beg and muttered in a low voice: "Hou Tan Lang of Donghai Prefecture, come with us! Emperor Ren's edict, you can enter the Yantian Palace!"
Ji Ao's eyes narrowed suddenly, he grabbed Beqi's wrist, leaned into his ear and whispered: "There are countless secret magic powers in the secret hall, and the power is extremely great, and the most profound secret magic power is not in the Si Tian Palace, but in the secret hall of the palace. There are countless immortal formation diagrams and my Dayu formation secrets in the Yantian Palace, you must choose carefully!"
Ji Ao and Beg only said a few words, and then reluctantly left with the team under the heavy gaze of those priests. The secret hall has a very high status in Dayu, it is mysterious and terrifying, it is the place where all the high priests of Tongtian finish their lives, it is responsible for sorting out and keeping all the classic documents of Dayu, and bears the heavy responsibility of continuing the Dayu Guozuo, so even the elders of the tribal alliance are in awe of the secret hall, and they dare not have the slightest disrespect for the secret hall.
Maybe there is an old man in the secret hall who is in his last years, it is the ancestor of the current head of a wealthy family in Dayu more than ten generations ago, or the great god and witch of a powerful tribe several generations ago, that is the leader of the jīng god of these tribes. With such a background, the identity of the priest of the secret hall and its dignity, even a prince of the clan like Ji Ao would not dare to offend them.
Beckoned by a few priests, Beg followed them out of the only avenue in the palace and walked deeper into the woods beside them.
After parting the dense weeds, we trudged through the dense forest full of poisonous insects for a full hour, and in a glade in front of me, a dozen priests in white robes were waiting quietly in a circle. It was the first time that Beg had seen a priest in a white robe, and he couldn't help but glance at these people a few more times.
These priests don't seem to be very old, at most they are in their twenties, but their cuffs are tattooed with more or less sun patterns, which shows that they are all rì-level priests, which means that they all have the strength to compete with the golden immortals. But looking at their expressions, their ignorance and youthfulness, their age will definitely not exceed the judgment of Beggar.
Is this the essence of the secret temple? Rì-level priests in their early twenties?
Don't be grinning, an immortal starts cultivating from a mortal, Jin Dan, Yuan Ying, Yuan Shen, Heavenly Immortal, the breakthrough of one product and one product all the way to the Golden Immortal, even a genius like the Xuanjin Jellyfish will take a long time to achieve in the calculation of the Yuan Hui. However, these young priests of the Great Yu Secret Palace, how old they are, they have the same strength as the golden immortals who have worked hard and spent a lot of time to cultivate.
Terrible background, but even if it's a secret temple, there won't be too many freak priests like this, right?
Led by several black-robed priests, Beg walked into the circle formed by these white-robed priests. Those white-robed priests snorted softly at the same time, their fingers sliding rapidly in the void, bringing a large area of phosphorescent light, and at the same time, they chanted strange incantations, and countless runes erupted from their side along with thick smoke, forming a rune array composed of countless runes in the inner and outer eighteen layers around Beqi.
The void suddenly swirled, accompanied by a dull thunderous cracking sound, and the surrounding area was dark, and powerful pressure came from all directions. By the time the light reappeared before his eyes, he had come to a valley, from which a terrible storm was erupting, and the wind was as strong as a knife, and it had sparked a large spark on the rocky ground in front of the valley.
A few white-robed priests blessed, and blessed Bebeg's body with a heavy rune prohibition, and an invisible fluctuation enveloped Bebeg's body, and whenever a strong wind approached him, it would be invisibly eliminated by this fluctuation. Don't beg looked at the pale black storm in surprise, the wind here should be half naturally generated and half artificially processed, otherwise it would not have been so terrifying. Judging from the speed at which a few wind knives slashed past Beqi and the degree of condensation of the wind knives, the wind knives here are afraid that ordinary immortals can't afford them.
Looking back, you can see the mountain formed by the candle dragon on the horizon in the distance, and you can also see the bear hall on the top of the mountain that is shrouded in a strong light. This place should still be in the garden of the Dayu Palace, but there should be a lot of forbidden ambushes along the way, so these white-robed priests will directly lead Beqi to use secret methods to break through the void and come to the entrance of the valley.
Follow behind these priests, and do not walk slowly against the wind. A terrible storm raged in their ears, and gradually the group walked into the entrance of the valley, which was a hundred miles high and only about three zhang wide, high and thin, like a black line.
After walking along the dimly lit valley for a long time, those white-robed priests came up with all kinds of forbidden methods along the way, and I don't know how many tricks it took to finally bring Beg out of this valley.
A pitch-black mountain cliff with a height of 100 miles appeared in front of Beqi, and it was dozens of miles away from Beqi. There are steep cliffs on both sides, and there are steep cliffs behind you except for this line of valleys. The wind was born out of thin air from the surrounding mountain walls, and after being compressed by invisible prohibitions, it turned into countless pitch-black wind knives and rushed into the valley, and after the compression and acceleration of the heavy prohibitions in the valley, it turned into a powerful storm and rushed out of the mountain.
The mountain wall in front of it is 100 miles high and about 200 miles wide, and there are countless statues of demon gods carved on the mountain wall. These demon gods are fighting each other, and there are countless statues of primeval beasts participating in them. The statues are so lifelike that you can even hear the terrible howls of the demon gods and beasts.
Between the two largest demon gods in the middle, there is a square entrance on the mountain wall that is no more than one zhang wide and three zhang high.
The entrance is about thirty miles above the ground, and there is an extremely long stone staircase from the front of Beg to the bottom of the entrance. The stone steps are only a few zhang wide, about a hundred miles long, and the straight stone steps go straight to the entrance, and each stone step is carved with countless intricate patterns and inscribed with countless ancient and mysterious spells. When Beg set his eyes on this stone step, he could faintly hear a terrible strange laughter in his ears.
Here a few black-clad priests bowed slightly to Beggar, and then walked over to a mountain wall on the left, and there was an entrance under the mountain wall, and they entered the entrance and disappeared. The white-clothed priests walked up the stone steps with Beg in their arms, and slowly walked down the stone steps to the entrance on the mountain wall in front of them.
As he walked higher and higher along the stone steps, the wind around him gradually became stronger and stronger, and even the prohibition that the white-clothed priest blessed Beg on Beg began to be unable to resist the invasion of the wind, and the invisible fluctuations began to tremble, and the wind blew on Beggar's body. Walking at a height of dozens of miles above the ground, feeling the feeling of the body being blown by the strong wind, Beg has the illusion that walking in the sky seems to be about to float up.
After walking for half an hour, the white-clothed priests secretly released various seals along the way to temporarily unlock the vicious prohibition on the stone steps, and did not beg to silently keep their seals in their hearts, and even more to remember the spiritual power fluctuations they released in their hearts. Dayu's Secret Palace, I will definitely come and go if I have the opportunity in the future. It is said to the outside world that the secret hall only stores all the classics and documents of Dayu, but who knows if there are any secret treasures in it?
When they came to the entrance at the end of the stone steps, several middle-aged priests dressed in white robes but with black stripes on their cuffs appeared out of nowhere, and lined up in front of Beggar. The middle-aged priest in the middle smiled and stretched out his hand to Beg: "Marquis of Donghai Prefecture, please hand over the three animals on your body, they are not allowed to enter the secret hall." ”
From that valley, they followed Beggar, and the dragon python sisters, who had been following Beg for more than a year, drilled out of Bebeg's ears without saying a word, and lay on Bebeg's shoulder and turned their heads to look at Beg. Ao Buzun rushed out angrily, his body shook and became more than three feet long, and he pointed at the priest's nose and scolded: "You are the animal, your whole family is an animal......!"
Beg grabbed Ao Buzun's mouth, slammed his body, made his thick body as thin as a hair, used his slender body as a material to tie a very complex bow on his mouth, and then handed Ao Buzun and the dragon python sisters to the middle-aged priest.
Looking deeply into the priest's eyes, Don Beg smiled and said, "It's hard work, Tan Lang doesn't want them to be hurt in the slightest!"
The middle-aged priest smiled slightly, he nodded, and dodged out of the way.
