Li Zhixia, Mu Yao, and Shu Guan retreated from the stone room in the center.
Li Zhixia did not touch the body of Master Qixia again.
Although he admired Master Qixia's talent and achievements in cultivation, in fact, Master Qixia was an out-and-out evil demon during his lifetime, at least after he became possessed. He did many things in private that were outrageous to both humans and gods.
Therefore, it is naturally impossible for Li Zhixia to bring the remains of Qixia Master back to Shanji Temple.
Perhaps, letting his remains be buried quietly in this underground palace deep in the mountains would be the best choice for him and Shan Jiguan.
There is no longer anything about him in the view of goodness, and there will be no need for it in the future.
Before walking out of the stone chamber, Li Zhixia did not salute the remains of the real Qixia, but just let out a long sigh.
Shu Guan was a little happy and a little disappointed.
Fortunately, Li Zhixia said that the so-called Qixia person died hundreds of years ago, so naturally he couldn't be an old cripple.
What is disappointing is that the old cripple is really just an ordinary person. At this time, the body is lying in the grave at the foot of the mountain, slowly starting to rot?
On the square, Wang Dahu and several other young people from Taoyuancun, as well as Xu Chuxiang, had already come out.
Xu Chuxiang sat on the ground, looking haggard. For an ordinary girl, the experience of these two days was a kind of cruel torture.
Before Shu Guan went up the mountain, he carefully brought food and water, which were being distributed to everyone by Han Biao.
Li Zhixia glanced at it and walked towards another stone room next to it.
Shu Guan opened his arms and walked towards Wang Dahu and the others first.
After telling Wang Dahu what happened after they were imprisoned in the stone chamber and the origins of the two Taoists, more than ten minutes had passed, and Li Zhixia and Mu Yao had already explored the five stone chambers.
"The one just now should be the alchemy room, and this one is the equipment room now, but everything has basically lost its aura."
"Unless it was before the Sixth Yuan Hui, it would have been possible to refine elixirs that would last for thousands of years, or magical weapons that could contain their own spiritual energy for a long time. However, in the current Seventh Yuan Hui, it is basically impossible."
"The four major treasures of Shan Si Guan are actually treasures left over from the Sixth Yuan Hui period."
"As for the eight stone human soldiers, they mainly rely on the Qingxin Bell to provide them with spiritual power, and they also need blood to wake them up."
The middle-aged Taoist priest and the young Taoist priest walked past Shuguan and the others while chatting, heading towards the next stone chamber.
Shu Guan thought for a while and followed.
It’s always good to hear more about some things, such as the Sixth Yuan Society, the Seventh Yuan Society, etc. What does this mean? The chronology of this world?
Apart from the stone room in the center where Master Qixia is located, and the stone room where Wang Dahu and Xu Chuxiang were imprisoned for two days, there is only one stone room left in the square that has not been opened.
However, after opening the door of the last stone room, I found that the space of this stone room was actually larger than the square outside, but it was also emptier than the square. Except for a total of eight broken iron chains on the surrounding walls, there was nothing. No.
Li Zhixia walked to a broken iron chain. The iron chain was dark and dark, with some blue stars at the break.
Mu Yao came to him and curiously bent down to pick up the iron chain from the ground. He just lifted the iron chain half an inch off the ground, but had to put it down.
"Good weight!"
The round-faced young Taoist priest said to his master in surprise.
"That's meteorite iron refined from extraterrestrial meteorite iron. This iron chain alone may weigh tens of thousands of kilograms. And now, I'm afraid no one can make meteorite iron anymore."
Li Zhixia said calmly.
Mu Yao looked along the iron chain toward the wall and saw that the end of the iron chain was deep into the stone wall. This underground palace was within the heart of the mountain, so the other end of the iron chain should be deep in the cliff.
In the stone chamber, there were eight such extremely heavy iron chains, and the light of spells shone on the iron chains.
"It seems like something is locked here, but what needs to be locked with a magic chain made of meteorite iron?"
Mu Yao asked suspiciously.
Li Zhixia said nothing. When he walked into this huge stone room, he felt a strange aura again.
Not long ago, he also felt the same aura on the red pillars of the hall above.
However, the same atmosphere is much stronger in this stone room.
That kind of breath contains powerful life force, and it should be the remnants of some kind of powerful creature.
But what kind of creature is it?
Li Zhixia already had a vague guess.
He looked around again and found that something seemed to have fallen in a corner of the stone room.
Li Zhixia walked over quickly and picked up the thing from the ground.
It was a black scale the size of a palm.
Then Li Zhixia felt the powerful breath of life more clearly, and at the same time, he could also feel that this breath was slowly disappearing from the scales.
"What is this?"
Mu Yao, who was following, asked in surprise.
"I guess this should be a piece of dragon scale."
Li Zhixia had a strange look in her eyes.
"And there may have been a dragon locked in this stone room, the one-horned dragon that belonged to Master Qixia's uncle."
"And now where's the dragon?"
"I don't know, but I can be sure of one thing, that is, the dragon might have been here not long ago, and it will never leave here for more than a month!"
At this time, Shu Guan had just walked into the stone room and happened to hear Li Zhixia's last words.
Then his heart skipped a beat.
Because he thought of that dream again, of the black unicorn dragon whose head was chopped off by the old cripple's palm.
"Okay, let's get out of here!"
Li Zhixia took a look at the eight dragon-locking chains. Of course, these eight dragon-locking chains are very precious and rare treasures. Except that they have no spirituality of their own, they are not much worse than the four great treasures of the Good Oneself Concept, especially those made of Almost no one in this era can refine the meteorite iron that locks the dragon chain.
It's a pity that he can't take it away.
Perhaps he could lift the dragon chain higher than Mu Yao, but he could not pull the dragon chain out of the mountain. Li Zhixia could clearly see the intersection of the eight dragon chains with the wall. A dense curse.
These forbidden curses should naturally be left by Master Qixia's uncle, and compared with the real Qixia back then, his Taoism was much worse.
This has something to do with talent and the times.
The most important thing is that even if he can pull out the eight dragon chains, he can't take him out of this valley.
After walking out of the stone room, Li Zhixia took out the Qingxin Bell she had just withdrawn and shook it gently a few times.
Then the eight stone dolls on the square suddenly started to move and came towards Li Zhixia from all directions.
But this time, the stone doll's eyes no longer glowed with a strange blood-red light.
Moreover, the body did not get bigger, but instead became smaller and smaller. When he walked in front of Li Zhixia, he had turned into a small doll with only three inches in height. They were all lined up in front of Li Zhixia's feet. They looked a little bit... cute.
People who have never seen the horror of these stone dolls would probably not be able to imagine that once these little dolls show their power, they are not afraid of bullets and grenades, and can trample a rough-headed wild boar into mud with just one foot.
Then everyone left the underground palace square, with Li Zhixia walking at the end. When he stepped into the passage, he suddenly looked back.
For some reason, he still felt a little uneasy.
Perhaps even though the remains of Master Qixia's uncle were finally found, there are still many unsolved mysteries in this underground stone palace.
For example, how did Master Qixia's uncle die? What did he see before he died?
And how did the one-horned dragon escape from the dragon chain? It has been locked tightly for three hundred years, why can it suddenly break free?
Looking at the stone chamber in the center opposite the passage, the stone door was wide open, and the corpse of Master Qixia's uncle was sitting on the stone chair, as if he was also watching them quietly.
Li Zhixia turned around and walked into the passage with some confusion.
There are too many secrets in the world that cannot be solved, which are the mysteries left by the long years in this world.
With Li Zhixia's cultivation level, he has neither the means nor the qualifications to fully explore these mysteries.
Li Zhixia walked through the passage.
When he walked out of the passage, at the other end of the passage, on the other side of the extremely quiet square, in the central stone room, on the stone chair, the remains of Qixia Master suddenly fell like powder. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a piece of dust under the stone chair, and where the corpse originally sat, there was a black mist the size of a fist.
The black mist flew out of the stone room as if it were alive, flew around the square outside, and finally stopped in the center of the square.
If you want to use a metaphor, it's like a person, after looking at the surrounding situation, then stopped and seemed to be thinking about something.
After staying in the air for three seconds, the black mist landed on the ground, slowly seeping into the ground like a ball of water.
Then the ground turned black, as dark as night.
And the black color began to spread rapidly around.
…
Li Zhixia stepped over the last step and walked out of the underground palace.
Below, turbulent blackness overflowed from the passage.
…
Li Zhixia stepped out of the gate and walked out of Qixia Temple.
Black spread out of the last step and out of the underground palace.
…
Li Zhixia walked into the cave.
Black spread out from the gate of the Taoist temple, spread up the cliff, and towards the cave. The green vines on the cliff instantly turned yellow and withered when the black spread over them, as if the black had taken away all their vitality.
