As the number of ghosts outside the stone house became less and less, Jiang Yi and his group were no longer satisfied with closing the door and beating the dogs, and took the initiative to open the stone door and come to the outside world. The number of ghosts around them decreased a lot, and they began to jointly attack, hoping to get back to the outside world again. I found a high-level ghost, but unfortunately I searched all around and didn't find another one.
The light in the space became clearer and clearer, and the surrounding ghosts gradually disappeared. Jiang Yi and his group could clearly see the way they came. If they walked up the hillside, there were seven or eight stone houses on both sides. , including the top stone hall, they decided to search one by one.
After experiencing so much, everyone decided to act in unison and take care of each other to prevent unexpected events; the most important thing is that they are the only group of people in the secret realm, and it will not take long to act together.
When we came to the next stone house, we saw the same dilapidated stone house, standing strong and unyielding despite the baptism of time. Jiang Yi stretched out his hand and opened the stone door. The house, which had not been occupied for a long time, was filled with dust and musty smell. After waiting for a while, Jiang Yi cast several dust-repelling spells to clean the inside. He walked in and found the stone table. Several stone boxes were placed randomly. The dead bones on the stone bed in the innermost place were scattered in a large area, and two black iron chains were hung alone on the wall.
Jiang Yi directly used the real fire in his body and burned it directly at the dead bones on the stone bed. Not surprisingly, a thin black mist emerged. After struggling for a moment, the black mist finally gathered into a humanoid shape. It took a long time to send out a message. An old voice: "Who am I? Where am I?"
Unfortunately, no one present could give an answer.
Heiwu looked at the hazy figure in front of him, and then at the dead bones on the stone bed. When the two dark iron chains entered the induction, it couldn't help but tremble, and quickly moved away for a distance, gathering together. His body became a little thinner again, and he didn't calm down until he realized that there was no danger. He tried his best, but his memory was blurred and could not be connected together. After a long time, he let out a deep sigh: "The way of my life is in the smoke and stone caves. In the wild. The love is so open that it always accompanies the white clouds. There is a road that leads to the world, and there is no familiar heart to climb. I sit on the stone bed alone at night, and the full moon rises out of the cold mountain."
After chanting it several times, the black mist became thinner and thinner, and finally dissipated in the air.
After a long silence, Jiang Yi packed up all the dead bones on the stone bed. When he got to the outside world, he found a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, erected a wordless monument, and engraved the nameless ancient poems that Hei Wu had chanted on it. This was also the end of his life. A thoughtful thought. Then, he easily pulled off the iron chain on the wall and put it into the storage ring.
The stone box on the stone table was opened by everyone, but it was empty. Everyone was mentally prepared.
Next, five or six stone houses were connected. After opening them one by one, there was nothing but a pair of black iron chains.
When everyone was standing in front of the final stone hall, they happened to meet Yi Yuan and the others unexpectedly. Lu Yunfeng deliberately made a serious face and said: "Yi Yuan, just hide for so long and have nothing to do. Follow everyone next, honestly." Stay still and don't run around."
Yi Yuan quickly agreed, but his eyes were fixed on the package hanging on the back of his uncle Lu Yunfeng. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle, you are too tired carrying a big package. My nephew will help you share the load."
Lu Yunfeng's eyes were stunned, but he was very willing in his heart. At that time, he agreed to others as soon as his mind was full of enthusiasm. Thinking about it later, he was a little scared. Fortunately, nothing happened along the way. With Yi Yuan holding it for him, he felt more at ease. Just when he was about to take off the package, he heard a faint sigh: "Little friend, I don't mean any harm. When I leave the secret realm of Guiyin Sect and take another look at the scenery outside, I will give up my last wish. Voluntarily step into reincarnation.”
"Senior, it's best to have such an idea. I believe your beautiful wish will come true soon. We will also let you rest in peace. I will help you keep your bones. It will be absolutely safe." Yi Yuan expressed his stance solemnly, but then deliberately rubbed his hands.
"Little friend, do you not trust me?" The old voice was full of endless sadness and loneliness.
"Senior, does this mean you don't trust this junior?" Yi Yuan quickly replied.
After a while, the old voice said helplessly: "Little friend, how can you believe in my sincerity?"
Yi Yuan immediately responded: "Senior, how should I trust your sincerity?"
A moment later, the old and sad voice sounded again: "I swear with my Taoist heart: I will never have any thoughts about you little friends. After I leave the secret realm of Guiyin Sect and fulfill my last wish, I will immediately voluntarily reincarnate."
"Then what?" Yi Yuan asked.
"Alas... Why bother, little friend? I have made an oath. If you still can't believe it, please put my bones back in the stone house and let me fend for myself to avoid any disruption. I wish you all peace of mind." The old voice was full of indignation.
"Senior, remember what you said." Yi Yuan responded lightly, reached out and took the package from his uncle Lu Yunfeng's back, and hung it gently on his shoulder.
The stone hall is about three feet tall and covers an area of six feet. It has a strange appearance and magnificent momentum. Despite the years, it is still ferocious and domineering. The two words "鬼影" above the main entrance exude a breathtaking ghostly light. Can't look at each other for long. On one side of the stone door, there is a scene of the eruption of the spring, and a ghost is carved on it, occupying a large area, with a green face and fangs, red eyes and red claws, which is ferocious and terrifying. The edge of the door is decorated with resurrecting grass; on the other side of the stone door, But it is a middle-aged man sitting high on the crown of a king. Although his appearance cannot be clearly seen, just a picture makes it difficult for people to look directly at him, and even he cannot think of resisting.
Everyone stood there for a long time before slowly coming back to their senses. Lu Yunfeng took a step forward and put his hands on both sides of the stone door. He tried his best but could not push the stone door open. He was a little unbelieving, so he exerted force again, shaking off the dust, but still Not a single crack was opened.
So, everyone tried to open the stone door one by one, but none of them could open the stone door. Now only Yi Yuan did not make a move, and they all looked over.
"Oh, you can't open it, so there's nothing I can do." Yi Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Everyone, you might as well use a soul bead to get close to the stone gate. Maybe you can do it." The old voice made everyone's eyes brighten.
Lu Yunfeng reluctantly took out a soul bead and said reluctantly: "This is the soul bead. It would be a pity to use it here. What do you think?"
After everyone heard this, they discussed it. Although it was a soul bead, it was valuable, but so many people couldn't share it. Besides, they had reached the last hall, and no one was willing to give up exploring, so they all agreed to use it.
As soon as the soul beads approached the stone door, bursts of light emitted, and all of them entered the stone door in an instant. With a "squeak", the stone door opened.
While everyone was overjoyed, they remained vigilant and followed Lu Yunfeng into the hall.
After so many years, the hall is still very clean. There is a stone altar in the middle with exquisitely carved patterns. There are Rakshasa, ghosts and ghosts, each occupying a position, but the middle area is carved. There was a middle-aged man. Although his appearance could not be clearly seen, it was much clearer than the pattern on the stone door.
In addition to the altar, there were only nine futons scattered on the surrounding ground in such a large stone hall, which made it unique. The words and patterns carved on the stone walls quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Yi Yuan quietly picked up the futon on the ground. It was slightly cold in his hands, but it was surprisingly well preserved. He thought for a moment and put it back into the storage ring. Then, while everyone was distracted observing the stone wall, he quietly collected them one by one. .
"This is a complete soul-searching technique." Lan Zeliang couldn't help but say it, his eyes fixed on the stone wall.
"The stone wall here records the soul refining technique." Jiang Yi frowned, because this soul refining technique was too cruel and overbearing.
"What is recorded on the stone wall here is the art of losing souls, which is quite miraculous." Ying Yueyan hesitated for a moment and then said it. This secret method is quite close to what she has learned and can be used as a reference and practice.
"What I recorded here is the art of controlling ghosts, which is also very subtle." Jiang Yuxuan said what she had discovered.
"On this stone wall, the art of soul control is recorded, specifically to control the souls of others as one's own slaves." Shangguan Xue reported what he saw.
"On the stone wall here, there is a prescription for elixir recorded, and a rough refining process is described. However, the main medicine is the Resurrection Herb." Chen Hao felt that he was quite lucky.
"Alas! The stone wall I saw is inscribed with the method of using the altar. It requires at least three soul beads to open it." Shi Zhong sighed, but still said it. When the only soul bead opened the stone door , has been consumed, but it is impossible to open the altar. Maybe... He glanced at Yi Yuan secretly, and suddenly found that the futon on the ground was missing. Did he miss something good? He scratched his head.
"The secret method engraved on the stone wall should be able to be practiced based on the Tao method we have learned. If it is used on the enemy, it is the most correct choice. As long as you do not do evil, it will be fine. If the heart is righteous, the Tao method is righteous. Let's rest here for a while. Make plans again.”
What Lu Yunfeng said was in line with everyone's opinions, so no one came out to oppose it.
Therefore, everyone carefully studied the secret techniques that suited them, and Yi Yuan was no exception. He recorded the secret techniques one by one, then found an open space, took out a futon, sat on it, and soon calmed down and spent a lot of money. In three to five days, he learned a lot about the secret method. As for the method of opening the altar recorded on the stone wall, he selectively ignored it. He felt that something unknown would appear after opening it, so he secretly discussed it with Shangguan Xue. So he pretended as if nothing had happened and looked around.
The hall was still a bit empty. Yi Yuan observed carefully and found nothing unusual except for the altar. He was not discouraged and walked around for a few times before calming down to meditate and sleep.
Suddenly a few days passed, and everyone got up from meditating one by one. After staying in the secret realm for so many days, it was time to leave. Lu Yunfeng secretly asked Yi Yuan if he had any soul beads. After learning that the altar was not open, he No questions asked.
When they walked out of the hall, the stone door opened easily. Until the stone door closed again, everyone still felt a little regretful. If they had extra soul beads, opening the altar might have unexpected benefits. It was too late to say anything now; among them, Some people speculated that Yi Yuan might have a soul bead in his hand, but they didn't find out in the end.
In the secret realm, the light became clearer and clearer, the ghostly aura was much less sinister, and there was no longer a biting cold feeling in the air. The restricted cage formed by nine huge rocks on the back mountainside was quickly discovered by everyone.
Everyone came to the mountainside to check: there was nothing inside the boulder confinement except for the ghostly energy exuding from the deep pit; there was a shallow puddle outside, spreading down the hillside, and the puddle showed a dark red color. , exuding a faint smell of blood, which makes people palpitate.
"The deep pit in the forbidden cage is where the Youquan is. After the Yin Soul Rebellion is over, only the deep pit remains in place." Yi Yuan explained a few words softly.
"Resurrection Grass, have Junior Brother Yi seen it?" Chen Hao in the crowd suddenly asked eagerly. He had already discovered small pits on the edge of the shallow pits. He estimated that there were five or six places, which were left intentionally by Yi Yuan.
Yi Yuan nodded and admitted directly.
Although Chen Hao felt a little unhappy after hearing this, he never spoke again and pretended to be nonchalant.
In the secret realm, the opportunities gained by each belong to the individual, and no one takes the initiative to break this rule.
If necessary, it can also be exchanged voluntarily.
Chen Hao felt that he still had a chance, at least they were getting along more harmoniously these days, he thought to himself; unfortunately, the value of the Resurrection Grass was extremely high, and he might not have enough resources to trade it.
