At this time, Zhang Tong was by Zhen Yuandao's side, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but wonder: "Master, since that giant python is so powerful, those water demons below are obviously not opponents, and Weishenme still blindly wants to fight with it?
Zhen Yuandao thought about it for a while, and felt that it didn't make sense, but at this moment, he suddenly found that a building outline faintly appeared in the center of the whirlpool stirred up by the giant python, which made him suddenly realize that it was so, and shouted: "I see!"
After all, Zhang Tong had too little experience, and he saw that the river was dim, but he didn't see the clues, and he was even more suspicious in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "What did Master see?"
Zhen Yuandao stretched out his hand and pointed at it, and said with a smile: "Look closely, what is there under the water!"
Zhang Tong followed what he pointed out, and Xiangxia looked at it, and also found the water mansion, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Could it be that the master refers to the fact that these water demons and the giant python are fighting to the death in order to compete for this water mansion?"
Zhen Yuandao nodded and said: "Your experience is too shallow, you may not know, legend has it that in ancient times, the Emperor Donghua ruled the heavens and the earth, and the immortals of the universe competed to worship." Emperor Donghua also set up the position of immortal official, in the world's famous mountains and rivers, canonized the god of the city god and river, and built the mountain palace and water mansion, just like the court yamen in the world. Today, the Donghua Emperor has long been missing, and the Xiandao Dynasty he established has also disappeared, but many mountain palaces and water mansions built at the beginning have been preserved. I heard that some of them still have many original magic weapons hidden, no wonder these water demons fought against the giant python regardless of life and death. ”
Zhang Tong listened. Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "Ancient Immortal Mansion, how rare! Now that the master has completed the flying sword, why don't you go down and disperse all the water demon pythons and take this opportunity to take away the water mansion?"
Zhen Yuandao was also said to be a little moved, it just so happened that the Lingxi Temple had just been destroyed, and he had nowhere to settle down, so he occupied this water mansion. Isn't it ten times more magnificent than the original Lingxi Temple!
But Zhen Yuandao thought about it for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Although the water mansion below is good, it is of little use to me, and now I have another important matter, which is to take the chalcedony, don't waste time here." Besides, the giant python has not yet turned into a dragon. But a body of scale armor is hard to hurt by a sword, even if I can kill him. It's hard to get out of it. The matter is still stopped, and I will hurry up. ”
While speaking, Zhen Yuandao had already made up his mind, so he no longer hesitated, turned around directly, urged the sword light again, and flew straight towards Mangshan with Zhang Tong in his arms.
This time. There were no more twists and turns in the middle, not before dark. It has reached the boundary of Mangcang Mountain. I saw mountains and lush vegetation. As far as the eye can see, there is no trace of human habitation, and it is extremely desolate.
A few years ago, Zhen Yuandao had been to this Mangcang Mountain several times in order to cultivate spells, and he had long been familiar with the road, but this time, because the sword flew into the sky, it was different from the past, and it was really a little uncomfortable for a while. Looking at the mountain scenery, it seemed that it was different from before, and after he searched carefully, it took him half a day to land in a mountain forest and rocks.
Because after many years, Zhen Yuandao buried the chalcedony for thousands of years, even he himself can't remember it clearly, and he can only rely on some vague impressions and the original marks left to barely find the entrance.
Originally, Zhen Yuandao was still a little worried, in the past ten years, in the blink of an eye, will the entrance of the cave be discovered again? Will the Wanzai chalcedony in it be gone?
It was only then, seeing that the entrance was still unharmed, that he finally put his mind at ease. Secretly happy, he immediately urged the sword light, and with a sweep of the movement, he separated the earth and stones, revealing a black entrance. Because it had been closed for many years, it suddenly opened, and a turbid gas suddenly gushed out. ...,
Zhen Yuandao knew that this place was the place where the veins of Mangcang Mountain converged, otherwise it would be impossible to give birth to spiritual things such as Wanzai Jingyuan, and the turbidity generated here was even more different from the usual, so he hurriedly threw out the five yin bags and sucked it for a while, sucking all the turbidity gas away, and then led Zhang Tong into the cave.
The last time Zhen Yuandao came here was more than 20 years ago, and it was still the same in this cave after a long time. After walking for about a hundred zhang, it has gone deep into the bottom, and the front suddenly opens up, showing a hall more than ten zhang square. It is about five or six zhang high up and down, and the top of the cave is densely packed, and it is full of sharp and incomparably sharp, upside-down stalagmites, as if countless arrows are about to shoot down at any time. On the ground are also cone-shaped stone pillars formed by many stalactites dripping and accumulating over the years.
Looking inside, in the center of the hall, in the middle of many stalagmites, there is a round stone pillar more than one zhang high and about six or seven feet in diameter, glowing with a faint fluorescence, the whole body is as white as jade, and the surface is very smooth, as if it has been carefully polished.
When Zhen Yuandao saw the stone pillar, his eyes immediately became more and more eager, and he hurried a few steps to come to him, touched it lightly with his hand, and muttered in his mouth: "Twenty-six years! I can't imagine that I, Zhen Yuandao, will have the opportunity to return here again!"
Zhen Yuandao said while squinting his eyes, as if he was recalling the old things from many years ago. And Zhang Tong followed closely behind him, and when he saw where the stone pillar was, it was not difficult to guess that it must be the Wanzai chalcedony, and he couldn't help but look at it carefully.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Zhen Yuandao came back to his senses, and he took a moment to start looking at this piece of chalcedony again, and then suddenly, a light appeared in his eyes, and he pointed his hand at the stone pillar, and a cyan sword light flew out, and it flew over like lightning.
Suddenly, only to hear the sound of the bang, like the sound of gold and iron, and then when the cold light flashed, Zhen Yuandao had already put away the flying sword, but only a white spot the size of a thumb belly was left on the shell of the chalcedony, which was about half an inch deep, but it was a drop in the bucket for the entire stone shell.
Zhen Yuandao looked at the results and couldn't help frowning, originally according to his imagination, this sword pierced down, even if it couldn't penetrate the stone shell, it could at least penetrate seven or eight inches, but he didn't expect that it would only collapse a little stone chip.
In fact, although the shell of Wanzai chalcedony is strong, it can't withstand the power of the superior magic weapon, but the quality of Zhen Yuandao's herring sword is really average, and there are only eighteen prohibitions in the sword, and it has fallen into the inferior in the flying sword.
The power of the general magic weapon only depends on two things, one is the material itself, and the other is to see how many prohibitions are refined, and the more prohibitions refined, the more powerful the magic weapon is. For example, Zhang Tong's five yin bags have only been refined with one prohibition, the black dog nail has ten prohibitions, and the Tiger Roar Sword has been refined by the Tiger Roar real person with fifteen prohibitions, and the gold swallowing gourd has twenty-seven prohibitions.
As a major branch of the magic weapon, the flying sword is not only prohibited, but it is made of heavier materials. Generally, a flying sword must be refined at least nine prohibitions before it can be activated, kill people in the air, and fly manned, otherwise it cannot be called a flying sword at all. Zhen Yuandao's herring fish sword has been refined with eighteen prohibitions, according to reason, it is not a lot, and it can be regarded as a relatively good among the low-grade flying swords.
It's a pity that the material of this flying sword is really unsatisfactory, except for some star sand, it is all the essence of ordinary hardware, and even Zhang Tong's original set of flying knives is not as good. Although the eighteen prohibitions of refining, the actual power has been greatly reduced, even Zhang Tong's tiger roaring sword, there are only fifteen prohibitions, but because of the excellent material, it wins.
However, Zhen Yuandao had never seen a more high-quality flying sword in his life, so he didn't feel how ugly his flying sword was, so he secretly sighed in his heart: "I can't imagine that the shell of this 10,000-year-old chalcedony is so hard! It seems that if you want to open the stone shell, you have to think about it in the long run, settle down, and slowly wear it out, no matter how hard the stone shell is, you can't stand the effort of dripping water through the stone. ”...,
Zhen Yuandao made up his mind, he was eager to try, opened the stone shell, collected stalactites, and gradually faded his mood, turned around and ordered Zhang Tong to go outside to find some branches and weeds, carefully cover the hole above, and then have no distractions, urge the sword trick up, turn the herring sword into a flying rainbow, rotate rapidly around the stone shell, and there was a loud sound, and the stone chips flew wildly.
Zhang Tong got the order, and he didn't dare to slack off, and after hiding the entrance outside, he made a few spirit runes around to hide the breath left by him and Zhen Yuandao, and then waited back in the cave, half an hour had passed.
Zhen Yuandao also had a lot of perseverance, urging the sword light, which did not stop for a moment, grinding the stone powder to fly, and making the entire cave full of smoke and dust. Fortunately, Zhang Tong and Zhen Yuandao are both people of the Tao, but they are not afraid of these, but they are the stone shell, the texture is really hard, even if Zhen Yuandao uses a flying sword to wear it down, it is very difficult, and the true qi is consumed sharply. After persisting for a while, he couldn't take it anymore, so he had to pause, breathe in pranayama, and restore his true qi.
When Zhang Tong saw this, he was also a little anxious, and he was eager to go up and help, and take out the 10,000-year-old chalcedony stalactites as soon as possible, at least in this situation, he should also be able to share a mouthful, but unfortunately his tiger roaring sword is still not visible, so he can only be in a hurry, but he can't get his hands on it.
Shan waited for Zhen Yuandao to rest for a while, and then began to urge the flying sword again, and so on, to kill for a while, and rest for a while. Zhang Tong looked bored, and he couldn't help, so he simply ran to the entrance of this cave, nominally to help Zhen Yuandao protect the Dharma, but in fact, he was begging for a clean and secretly cultivating here.
At this time, Zhen Yuandao was all about opening the shell of the 10,000-year-old chalcedony, and he didn't care about what Zhang Tong was doing. However, the stone shell was extremely hard, and until it lasted for more than a month, it did not polish off the shell of the Wanzai chalcedony, but instead honed Zhen Yuandao's sword technique more proficiently.
Because when Zhen Yuandao first entered the Dao, he obtained the Great Existence of the Lei Yin Temple's Great Vientiane Lei Yin Sword Technique, but at that time, his cultivation was too low, and secondly, there was no flying sword available, so he got this sword technique, and he didn't practice very carefully. It wasn't until the last time, when he got the herring sword, that he concentrated on cultivating, but the time was too short, and the practice was insufficient, so he always felt that some places were sluggish, and he couldn't find the reason.
This time, he hit the right one, and within a month, in addition to resting, Zhen Yuandao was urging the flying sword almost all the time, and before he knew it, the feeling of stagnation disappeared, and he turned to move as he wished. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
