A month later, after absorbing and refining the blood cells condensed by the Chuchen Immortal Emperor and the Zhongzhou Immortal Emperor, and taking away the soul-burning lamp and jade slips, Jiang Haoyang took Lu Jianming away, leaving only an empty space in the hall.
After confirming that the two of them had left, Cheng Ling on the roof of the hall dared to move his numb limbs a little. This time, I finally figured out Jiang Haoyang's purpose and saw his true face. What the other party said confirmed many speculations. Junzifeng is not a good place to stay. Although it has nothing to do with me, I can't agree with the way of doing things, so I'd better stay away from it!
He sighed, but he did not dare to go down directly from the top of the temple. Instead, he dived into the black vortex above the top of the temple.
Another severe dizziness came, and after a long time, his feet stepped on the ground. He slowly opened his eyes and saw that where he was standing was a huge square, thousands of miles in circumference. There was a palace in the middle of the square, towering and grand!
In front of the palace, there are countless endless stone statues standing in the square. At a glance, there are hundreds of thousands of them. They all look like soldiers and generals, guarding the majestic palace in the center.
There are two peaks standing on the left and right of the square. One peak is carved with a huge word "Qi", and the other peak is carved with the word "Dan".
Cheng Ling's mind raced. These two peaks were exactly the same as what he had seen on Zhao Jiuyou's map before. From this point of view, it should be the treasure hiding place of Jiuyou Immortal Mansion. There is no doubt that the peak with the word "Qi" must be a place for refining weapons, and the peak with the word "Dan" must be a place for refining alchemy.
Cheng Ling has the heritage of alchemy, but what he lacks is weapon refining. Therefore, Cheng Ling immediately made a decision in his heart and shot towards the peak with the word "qi". At the same time, he opened the Holy Eyes of the Netherworld, and his eyes flashed blue, disappearing on the mountain peak in a blink of an eye.
After touching a stick of incense, there was a fluctuation in the sky, and Zhao Jiuyou's figure appeared in the air. He glanced around, with a look of shock and horror on his face. After calming down his mind, his eyes stayed on the mountain with the word "Dan", and with a flash of his body, he appeared in front of the word "Dan" on the mountain.
The array-breaking bead came out of the body, and the colorful brilliance flickered, slowly turning in front of the word "Dan". I saw that the big word "Dan" in the word actually rippled, and long threads slowly appeared and entered into the formation-breaking bead.
Cheng Ling's figure passed through the restriction of the formation, and the scene in front of her suddenly changed. What appeared in front of her was a valley. There is a ten-foot high platform in the valley, which is completely formed by a single peak cut in half. It is filled with red light and sparks are flying. It is a fire vein and is regarded as a place for refining weapons.
It is obviously a place with fire veins, but there is a pool of water next to the fire veins. Cheng Ling flew up to the ten-foot-high platform. It was indeed a place for refining weapons. However, there were no weapons in the entire place. Cheng Ling couldn't help but be disappointed. He sensed carefully that although the fire veins were flying with sparks, they were not of high quality and seemed to have lost their spirituality.
"After these many years, Huo Mei has lost a lot of its spirituality, and I don't know if there are any immortal weapons left."
Cheng Ling felt sad in her heart and looked around. When I looked down at the pool of water, I was suddenly dazzled. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he saw sparkling light coming from the depths of the pool, confusing his vision.
Cheng Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, the blue flashing, and his heart suddenly trembled and he was filled with ecstasy.
At the bottom of that curved pool, there were densely packed layers of fairy artifacts. Cheng Ling reached out and sucked, and a long sword broke out of the water from the bottom of the pool and was sucked up. Cheng Ling held the long sword in his hand with one hand.
As soon as the long sword was in hand, it immediately emitted a surging energy. Cheng Ling almost couldn't control it, and the immortal energy in his body was flowing in. In less than a moment, a third of it was injected.
He nodded slowly and said: "The top-grade immortal swords are pretty good. These swords are of similar quality. They can be taken back to Luochen Medicine and sold in the future."
After Jiang Haoyang's incident, he already had a desire to leave. He no longer wanted to return to Junzi Peak because he wanted to prepare for future training. With a wave of his hand, all the swords in the pool were collected into his body.
I extended my consciousness in all directions and found nothing special. Unwilling to give up, he moved around, carefully checked, and after confirming that there were no more treasures, he left the weapon refining valley and flew out of the "Qi" formation.
After coming out, he turned around and flew towards the "Dan" peak. Flying into the mountain peak, he glanced in all directions and cursed in his heart. Dozens of pill furnaces in front of him had been turned upside down. Apart from the scent of medicine in the air, there were no pills left at all. It was obvious that someone had climbed there first.
Sighing secretly, he thought in his mind that the person who got ahead of him was probably Zhao Jiuyou. Judging from the jade slip map that the other party gave him, this boy was very familiar with Jiuyou Immortal Mansion. Perhaps he was the only one who could be so fast.
Exiting the Dan Peak and returning to the top of the square, I stood in the air, looking at the stone statues on the square, and then at the majestic palace guarded by hundreds of thousands of stone statues, with a trace of confusion in my heart.
These stone statues should be the guards of the palace, but they are all standing on the ground. Only people flying from the air can enter the hall easily. But Cheng Ling knew that this idea was basically impossible. The Holy Emperor Jiuyou was not an idiot for surrounding the palace with so many useless stone statues.
The figure slowly and cautiously approached the group of stone statues. As soon as he entered the sky above the group of stone statues, he suddenly felt a strong suction force, and his body fell out of the air without any control. Cheng Ling stepped on the ground and felt it for a moment. It was not like a restricted airspace, but like the gravity within the stone statue in the square had increased many times, making it impossible for the monks to fly in the air.
But before he stayed for a while, the stone statues around him seemed to sense his aura, and each one seemed to come alive, moving slowly towards him.
Cheng Ling was shocked, and with a flash of his body, he withdrew from the formation of stone statues. Although he couldn't fly and the gravity was much greater, his movement speed was still very fast and he escaped in an instant. When he stood outside the square again, the stone statues rumbled to a stop.
Standing outside the stone statue formation, he frowned slightly. There seems to be a circular dividing line between the square and the outside area. If you look closely, you can see that the bricks on the ground are different in size and color. The color inside is darker, the bricks are larger, and there seems to be a gravity gap between the two.
Cheng Ling's eyes flashed blue, and he didn't see the slightest formation restriction. Obviously these stone statues are machine puppets. But how does gravity come about? Cheng Ling frowned deeply. With the existence of this gravity and the loss of the ability to fly, if you want to break into the middle palace, you can only break through this stone puppet.
However, Cheng Ling had to be careful. This stone puppet was not easy to get along with at first glance. His eyebrows suddenly raised, Cheng Ling looked at the mountain with the word "Dan". But seeing that the word "Dan" on the mountain peak had disappeared, he thought to himself: "I'm afraid Zhao Jiuyou will come out soon, right?"
Cheng Ling's heart moved, his body flashed, and he found a thick ancient tree and hid behind it. The breathing technique was operating, completely hiding his own breath.
After waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, I saw Zhao Jiuyou coming out of the mountain peak and standing in the air. He stared at the stone statue below. A few breaths later, Zhao Jiuyou also cautiously approached the range of the stone statue. Cheng Ling hid behind the tree, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised upward.
As soon as Zhao Jiuyou entered the range of the stone statue, his figure suddenly seemed to lose control and fell towards the ground. Caught off guard, he fell heavily to the ground. When he was crying out in pain, a stone statue standing beside him had already raised a big foot and stepped towards him.
In panic, Zhao Jiuyou had no choice but to roll on the spot, dodge, and then jumped up from the ground, revealing the black mist in his hand.
But just now, he rolled into the formation of stone statues, and now he is surrounded by many stone statues and they are attacking crazily. Zhao Jiuyou was anxious, and the black mist turned into a torrent to block the attack of the stone statue on the opposite side. He made a mistake in his steps and dodged the two giant forks that were struck by the stone statue next to him.
With a thought in his mind, he wanted to release the formation-breaking beads. The main function of the formation-breaking beads is to have the power of space, so they can set up formations to break formations. But as soon as he used the formation-breaking beads, he found that they had almost no effect. Zhao Jiuyou was immediately blinded. There were no formation restrictions in the square. If he wanted to leave or enter, he could only rely on his own true strength.
In desperation, he could only retreat first. But due to this delay, many stone statues were activated, and they all surrounded him in an instant. Cold sweat broke out on Zhao Jiuyou's forehead, and his figure suddenly accelerated, shuttling back and forth between the stone statues, and the battle with the stone statue puppets was extremely fierce for a while.
Cheng Ling hid aside and laughed secretly: You kid, let me show off your strength. This time you are trapped by a stone statue, and you will have to peel off your skin even if you don't die!
Sure enough, half an hour later, Zhao Jiuyou's figure slowed down and he looked a little embarrassed. He only entered one-tenth of the square and was still far away from the Hebo Palace. Cheng Ling had already seen that Zhao Jiuyou could not break through the formation of stone statues with his own strength.
"He can't get through, can he get through by himself?"
Cheng Ling asked himself, but unfortunately he didn't have much confidence. If these stone statues have restrictions or formations, they may be able to pass easily, but in a head-to-head battle, they are not very sure. Although the cultivation of those stone statues seems to be weaker than mine, they cannot withstand the large number!
After pondering for a while, he finally glanced at Zhao Jiuyou coldly and said to himself: "The days are long, let him toss around here while I go search for other treasures first!"
Cheng Ling retreated quietly. After leaving a long distance, he looked back at the formation of stone statues. He seemed to see that Zhao Jiuyou had begun to retreat towards the outside of the formation of stone statues. It seemed that he was ready to give up.
"This kid is really amazing. He made a decision so quickly. Well, before he leaves, I have to hurry up and find new treasures as soon as possible!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure became erratic and rushed in the direction of dense formation restrictions!
