"one two three four five six seven eight nine!"
Lin Yue counted softly, holding the long pearl in one hand, and tapping the stone wall in the order of numbers on the Nine Palaces Diagram with the other hand.
The slender white palms came into contact with the stone wall again and again, and in a short time they passed nine figures.
Immediately, Lin Yue took a step back slightly and looked at the stone wall expectantly.
This method of opening the secret door should be similar to the mobile phone screen unlocking in the previous life, and it also requires unlocking fingerprints or other things to identify the person opening the door.
If this jade beauty is the owner of this cave, it should be able to be opened.
However--
"Um?"
Lin Yue waited for a long time, but there was no movement on the stone wall and no intention of opening it.
He looked at the stone wall, frowned slightly, and tapped it again in order to avoid any omissions he had just made.
But the results remained unchanged.
Then he changed his hand, or bit the long pearl, and tried slapping it with both hands, but it still didn't work.
"It seems that the original owner of the cave is not this great beauty."
Lin Yue thought for a moment, then turned to look at the male corpse not far behind him.
He immediately walked over and observed the ugly and horrifying male corpse, and found that where the sword penetrated his chest, there was a huge gash, and there were many cracks in the skin around the edge of the wound.
The gap was empty, with only looming bones visible, but no flesh and blood.
Lin Yue carefully grabbed a piece of skin at the edge of the wound and tried to tear it off.
"laugh……"
Unexpectedly, a small piece of skin was easily torn off by him.
"So simple?"
Lin Yue was a little stunned.
He thought that for such an ignorant master, his skin might still be extremely tough and difficult to damage after death, but who would have thought that a piece of it was easily torn off by him.
Maybe it’s the weathering and decay of time?
Or is it because the skin around the wound has been damaged by this rusty iron sword?
Whatever the reason, it's a good thing.
As long as there are skin fragments, all living beings can analyze them.
"last chance."
Lin Yue took the skin fragment and retreated to the end of the cave. Then he observed the wrinkled skin fragment with his long pearl, and he became increasingly uneasy.
"If this person is not the original owner of the cave, then there is really nothing we can do."
Immediately, Lin Yue took out the knife again and cut his scarred fingertips, and smeared a drop of blood on his eyebrows.
This is the way to relieve the changes in the appearance of living beings.
As long as a drop of his blood, the master of the appearance of all living beings, is applied between the eyebrows, the changes in the appearance of all living beings can be resolved.
The next moment, an astonishing stream of blazing heat surged out and began to burn and melt his flesh and bones.
After a while, when Lin Yue woke up again, he found that his body had returned to its original state.
It feels better to be a man.
Immediately, he took off the signs of living beings on his face, followed the same steps as before, put a few drops of blood on the small piece of skin, then wrapped it with the signs of living beings, and allowed it to be decomposed and analyzed.
After waiting for half an hour again, the sentient being spit out the piece of skin.
This piece of skin is also missing half of its size.
"Successful."
Lin Yue took a deep breath, then sat down against the stone wall, raised his head, and covered his face with all the living beings.
As a thought came to mind, a huge stream of heat erupted from all living beings again and enveloped him, rapidly melting his flesh, blood, and bones.
After a while, everything calmed down.
Lin Yue slowly opened his eyes and was startled for a moment.
He raised his right hand and looked at it, and couldn't help but feel more and more strange.
This palm is broad and thick, with a bronze complexion. At first glance, it looks like the palm of a man.
But what made him feel strange was not the palm, but the feeling of what he saw in front of him. It always felt different from before.
It seems that the world in front of me...
An extra perspective?
Lin Yue suddenly reached out and touched his cheek, and then his forehead.
The view is blocked.
He felt a gap on his forehead, and while rubbing the gap, he could clearly see his fingers.
Lin Yue suddenly understood.
It turns out that this man actually has a third eye on his forehead?
No wonder the perspective is a little different.
"You actually have a third eye?"
He tried to speak and found that the sound was strong, powerful and magnetic, and it turned out to be a subwoofer.
He touched his cheek again and found that there was nothing special about this man's appearance. He had a very high nose bridge, very thin lips, and prominent brow bones. He had a very mean appearance.
Lin Yue didn't waste any time and immediately stood up, ready to continue trying to open the secret door.
As soon as he got up, he immediately discovered that the man was unusually tall, at least eight feet tall, equivalent to more than two meters, causing the clothes on his body to become tight.
Fortunately, I'm already 1.85 meters tall, so it's not too different.
"last chance……"
Lin Yue took a deep breath, looked at the stone wall in front of him, held the long pearl in his hand, and tapped the numbers on the nine-square grid again in order.
one two three four five six seven eight. Nine.
After he took pictures of the wall nine times with his bare hands——
"Qiang!"
After a short period of silence, a strange sound like gold and iron clashing suddenly came from inside the stone wall.
"There's some movement!"
Lin Yue's eyes suddenly burst out with blazing light, and his heart was even more excited.
I saw that this stone door slowly opened a curved gap from the center, like a black and white Tai Chi diagram, moving violently to both sides at a speed visible to the naked eye, gradually opening up the cave inside to him.
"It's really open."
Lin Yue took a deep breath, held back the excitement and joy in his heart, and looked carefully at the cave behind the door.
A simple and plain stone room appeared in front of him.
The top of the stone chamber is inlaid with pearls. When the stone door is opened, these pearls emit a soft light, immediately brightening the dark stone chamber.
The stone room is not large in area, only a few feet in diameter. There is only one table, one chair, one bed, and one statue inside. They are all made of stone and look inconspicuous.
besides--
In front of the stone sculpture, a somewhat worn dark blue futon was placed.
On the stone table were placed a wooden box slightly larger than a palm, and a blood-red lotus-like lamp, which was burning with a faint dim red flame.
"Is this the five-ring-level secret cave..."
Lin Yue observed outside the cave door, but did not dare to walk into the cave rashly. He first picked up a branch and poked inside, and then threw the branch in.
There was no movement.
Lin Yue raised his eyebrows slightly.
Not only was there no response, there was not even the slightest sound of branches falling to the ground. Could it be because the sound in the stone room could not be heard?
It seems that there may be something similar to the formation barrier in this stone room.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual, Lin Yue walked in.
When he stepped into the stone chamber, the bloody lotus-like lamp on the stone table suddenly changed, and the faintly burning dark red flame fluctuated.
The stone room is like another world. Not only is the air temperature suitable, it is not as humid as the cave.
"Is that all there is to it?"
Lin Yue looked around and found nothing of note.
The statue was of a stunning woman in palace attire, carved lifelike, with a look of compassion and love on her face.
However, the entire statue is obviously made of stone, but the lips are a strange bright red, as if they were smeared with blood.
Lin Yue did not dare to touch it, but looked at the two items on the stone table.
The blood-red lotus-like lamp looked extremely extraordinary, and I didn’t know what kind of treasure it was.
He looked carefully and found that in the center of the lamp surrounded by blood-red lotus flowers, the faint red flame was actually the wick. However, the wick was translucent, and there was a faint black light flowing inside, so at first glance It looks like a burning flame.
In the empty space around the wick, you can still see an extremely thin layer of scarlet lamp oil, which looks almost like blood.
Lin Yue didn't touch the lamp directly. Even if it was given to him, he, a mortal, might not be able to use such an unknown treasure.
After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the wooden box on the stone table.
The wooden box is slightly larger than a palm, but very light.
After carefully opening it, you can see several things placed inside the wooden box.
A letter.
A flawless white jade pendant.
A nearly colorless and transparent glass box, about the length of an index finger and two fingers thick, half of the inside is filled with bright red blood that is tinged with gold.
Looking at the items in the wooden box, Lin Yue felt a little nervous and excited.
perhaps……
Among these treasures, there is hope that he can be saved.
First, I picked up the white jade pendant and observed it carefully.
The carving on the jade pendant seemed to be an ocean. If he had not seen the overlooking view of the ocean, it would be difficult to distinguish it just by the carved waves and the whirlpool in the center.
And the glass box containing the blood was opened through a gap with just a push.
However, as soon as he opened the glass box, Lin Yue immediately smelled a faint fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose, which was somewhat similar to musk, and a bit like the fragrance of sycamore wood. He didn't know what kind of blood it was.
He didn't dare to hear more and immediately closed the glass box again.
After placing the jade pendant and the glazed box on the stone table, he picked up the letter placed at the bottom of the wooden box.
The letterhead said 'My disciple Qi'.
Lin Yue immediately understood that this was a letter written to his apprentice?
He hesitated for a moment, then opened the letter, unfolded it, and looked at it carefully.
“Seeing words is like meeting each other, showing trust and comforting one’s face.
"Disciple, if you are still willing to come back, when you read this letter, you should know that your master and I are dead. Are you happy?
"It just so happens that you no longer need to worry about such boring things as grudges and grudges, and which is more important.
"Master has left you a treasure, which may be of some use to you.
"This jade pendant is the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Refining Jade. You only need to drop a drop of blood to identify its owner to know the message. The glass box contains the blood of the fire phoenix and its soul. Wait for you to understand the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Refining Jade. After seeing jade, one naturally understands its function.
"Master was sorry for you back then and cut off your path. If you still have the heart to seek the path, you can seize the body or reincarnate and use this treasure to make your path more open.
"If you don't want to, you can give it to your favorite descendant.
"No matter how my master dies, you don't need to care. Master has been used to being lonely all his life. He has been accompanied by futons and lotus lanterns all year round. If you are interested in them, take them away.
"Although the Blood Lotus Lamp is a magic treasure and you don't like it, after all, it is a barrier treasure that Master refined by hand. It only needs blood as lamp oil. It is better than saving mana. If you don't want to use it, just leave it here. Bar.
"I'm asking my boudoir."
The end of the letter is 'Wu Dao's last words'.
"No way?"
Only then did Lin Yue realize that this was a last letter.
The ending word "Ji Xungui An" is usually written to female juniors, and it seems to be a female apprentice.
"The treasure of the barrier?"
Lin Yue glanced at the blood lotus lamp on the stone table.
He suddenly understood why there was no sound or movement after the branches were thrown into the stone chamber. It turned out to be because of the barrier of the blood lotus lantern?
However, Lin Yue felt a little disappointed.
This blood lotus lamp and the blood of the fire phoenix contained in the glazed box may be rare treasures in the world, but they seem to be of little use to his current situation.
"Only this Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Refining Jade is left..."
Lin Yue took a deep breath, put down the letter, and picked up the flawless jade pendant 'All Souls Blood Refining Jade' on the table.
Then, he cut his scarred fingertips again and wiped a drop of blood on the jade pendant.
This flawless white jade-like jade pendant quickly absorbed this drop of blood. In the sea carved on the jade pendant, the carved vortex gradually turned bright red.
at the same time--
"Crash..."
In a daze, Lin Yue suddenly heard the sound of surging waves, as if the sea was roaring, and there was a faint sound of waves crashing on the shore.
Immediately, a deep voice suddenly sounded in his mind:
"Good luck, junior, I wonder if you are a member of my demonic path, or a member of the three religions? Or are you a member of the hateful Xia Hong clan?
"However, these are irrelevant, after all, even I myself will become one of them... Haha, it is really sad and ridiculous.
"These two jade pendants were made with my own body before I died. They are most suitable for those who need to be reincarnated and seize their bodies. However, those who have not broken through the heavenly barrier can use this jade to refine all the spirits in the world and convert their blood. Even the soul became his own.
"Of course, in order to activate this jade, a simple blood sacrifice is required. Either nine practitioners who have broken through the Five Elements Heavenly Gate will donate half of their blood essence, or one practitioner who has broken through the Four Symbols Heavenly Gate will donate half of their blood essence. , I guess it’s not that difficult.
"When the jade pendant completely turns into the color of blood and the blood sacrifice is completed, it can be activated to perform the refining power.
"But this method is against the harmony of heaven. There is only one chance, so you must seize it. Of all the spirits in the world, the blood of divine beasts is the best. If you have all the spiritual veins, you will be most likely to succeed."
Refining all the spirits in the world?
All the blood and soul become your own?
Lin Yue couldn't help but be startled.
Then, hearing that deep voice, he suddenly chuckled:
“Of course, the best choice in this world is actually the bloodline of the old God Emperor, especially the prince with the purest bloodline.
"It's a pity that he is the source of Xia Hong's bloodline. Even I don't dare to take the prince's idea, otherwise I will suffer disaster from the God Emperor. I will say this..."
At this point, the deep voice gradually disappeared without a trace.
