Things did not go well. The three of them stood around the pentagonal pattern and observed it for a long time. Except for a large number of mysterious and unknown lines, they did not notice anything special, as if it was just a pure pattern.
Withdrawing his gaze, Mo Juren couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Since Xu Qingcheng is sure that this is a teleportation array, there is a high probability that it will not be wrong. However, how to activate this formation is a problem?
medium? What exactly is it?
While thinking about it, he suddenly saw the ice-blue brilliance of the token in his hand, and his heart couldn't help but move.
If the only thing closely related to this place is this token, then could this be the so-called medium?
Unfortunately, when he input another mana into the token, there was still no movement.
"Perhaps you can try standing inside the teleportation array." Xu Qingcheng on the side also thought of the token and gave a suggestion after thinking about it for a while.
Mo Juren nodded slightly, and then stepped onto the map. In an instant, the originally motionless token suddenly flew out of the palm, turned into a ray of blue light, and disappeared from the center of the picture, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterwards, the seemingly ordinary pattern on the ground also began to change. Blue light emerged from the center, and then spread rapidly to the surroundings.
In just one breath, the entire five-pointed pattern was lit up, and a blue light curtain emerged along the edge of the pattern.
Seeing this, Mo Juren suddenly felt happy. However, before he could do anything, he suddenly felt a strong pulling force coming from under his feet, and his expression immediately changed:
"The teleportation array is about to be activated, you two come in quickly."
Naturally, Han Li and the others did not dare to hesitate and entered the light curtain one after another. The next moment, with a flash of blue light, the three people disappeared without a trace.
…
This is an ordinary stone room, not large in area, about five or six feet in length and width, and only two feet in height. The walls on all sides were made of some kind of black stone. There were no windows, and there was only an unknown passage about a foot high directly in front.
The passage was pitch black and it was impossible to see anything clearly. Not only that, the suppression of spiritual consciousness here was also getting stronger and stronger.
Mo Juren fumbled for the token that was back in his hand, and for some reason, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. Just as he was about to continue investigating, he suddenly realized that something was not right with Xu Qingcheng beside him, and his jade-like cheeks were slightly pale.
"What's wrong?"
"I don't know. I just feel very depressed and a little out of breath." Xu Qingcheng shook her head slightly, her expression full of solemnity.
"Out of breath?" Mo Juren was a little confused. Although he also felt a little depressed, it didn't stop there and he didn't feel anything else. Even Han Li on the side, who was only in the early stage of forming the pill, did not appear in a similar situation.
Xu Qingcheng was a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul, and was the strongest among the three. How could he be worse than the two of them?
This was obviously not normal. After thinking about it, he immediately used his hands and handed it to the other party, revealing an inch-high white jade bottle: "This is an ice jade pill. It has the effect of reconciling qi and blood and calming the soul. You first Take a pill of Pranayama for a while, and then continue your journey later.”
Xu Qingcheng's bright eyes suddenly flashed when he heard Bingyudan's name. This is the top-ranked elixir in the chaotic sea of stars, and it is rumored that only the top alchemist in the Star Palace can refine it.
This is basically a good thing that has a price but no market. It seems that the other party got it through Ling Yuling's relationship. The quantity must not be large, which shows how precious it is.
What she didn't expect was that the other party would give her one directly. While she was surprised, she couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart.
"You really want to give this elixir to me?" She was still a little unsure and tried again.
"I'm afraid the situation here is much more complicated than expected, and it is very likely to be full of crises. Therefore, the three of you and I must maintain peak condition at all times in order to deal with all dangerous situations." Mo Juren nodded and said no more He said, and then walked towards the passage alone.
Of course he wasn't going on an adventure alone. He wasn't that reckless yet, he just wanted to investigate first. Han Li did not hesitate and followed closely.
Seeing this, Xu Qingcheng did not hesitate any longer, opened the bottle cap, and poured out a jade-white refined elixir that exuded an icy cold air.
Take it orally, then sit cross-legged, close your eyes and regulate your breathing.
Master and apprentice Mo Juren walked to the entrance of the passage and looked at the still dark area in front of them, and couldn't help but wonder in their hearts. We're all here, why is it still like this?
He took out a moonstone in his hand, and with the bright light, he could see clearly what was going on. The passage was actually filled with a layer of black mist. The entrance was not obvious yet, and the concentration became higher as you went deeper.
The moment he saw the black mist, Mo Juren couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart, and suddenly thought of something. When I went to Baoguang Pavilion after finishing the Ice and Fire Dao level, there seemed to be something similar in the abyss on both sides of the White Jade Bridge.
Is there any special connection between the two? Moreover, this black mist gives people a strange and evil feeling, and you can tell at a glance that it is not simple.
"Master, this mist..." Han Li apparently also reacted and reminded him solemnly.
"What do you think?" Mo Juren nodded and asked.
"Disciple doesn't know yet, but I have a little guess. This mist seems to contain a trace of demonic nature, which can be restrained by my evil-proof divine thunder." As he spoke, Han Li immediately raised a finger and fired with a golden arc. When it came out, it was like a golden sword, cutting a passage straight through the mist.
"Does it contain demonic nature?" Mo Juren frowned. Before, he simply glanced at the black mist on the White Jade Bridge and felt that there was something evil, but he did not notice the existence of demonic energy.
Is it true? Still too thin to notice. And the concentration of demonic energy in the fog here is higher. What is the reason?
"Master, do you need your disciple to investigate?" Han Li thought for a while and suddenly suggested.
"Be careful." Mo Juren thought for a while, but did not stop him.
"Master, don't worry. We are protected by the evil-proof divine thunder. There is no danger. Besides, if there is any emergency, the disciple will return immediately." Han Li smiled, but his eyes were full of confidence.
After saying that, he no longer hesitated, golden light flashed around his body, and then he stepped into the passage with unusual ease.
After taking a few steps, he suddenly noticed something. He immediately waved his hand, and as a golden thunderbolt swept across, all the nearby black mist was swept away.
At this time, Mo Juren could see clearly that the so-called passage was only more than ten feet long, and after that, there was actually a staircase spiraling downward.
Han Li did not stop and continued to move along the stairs, but soon lost sight of him.
The stairs seemed extremely long, and it took nearly half an hour before the other party showed up again.
"What's going on below?" Mo Juren asked directly.
"The end of the passage is very deep, and the other end seems to be connected to a mysterious space. Because of the restrictions, the disciples dare not enter rashly..." Han Li did not hesitate and told what he saw one by one.
"Mysterious space!" A clear voice sounded. It was Xu Qingcheng. The other party had obviously finished adjusting his breath, and he moved closer with a lot of steps.
"Are you okay?" Mo Juren turned around and asked.
"It's nothing serious." Xu Qingcheng nodded, and then said,
"I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy. It seems that there is some great terror below. What do you think, do you want to continue?"
"We have reached this point, so there is no possibility of retreating. Besides, even if you want to retreat, there is no chance." Mo Juren shook his head slightly. The teleportation array was obviously one-way, and it was obviously impossible to go back on it at this moment.
"I don't know what your plan is? Xili Lake has been painted here!" Xu Qingcheng had a look of helplessness on his face and continued,
"Forget it, who made my life so miserable that it happened to you? This time, I will sacrifice my life to accompany you, gentleman, to have a chance with you."
"Thank you." Mo Juren nodded unusually solemnly, and without hesitation, he led the two of them straight to the passage.
Facing the demonic energy contained in the thick black mist, the three of them had different ways of dealing with it.
Mo Juren was shrouded in evil-breaking divine light and was not affected at all. Han Li was wrapped in a layer of thunder and lightning, and he was also not afraid at all.
On the contrary, as a monk in the Nascent Soul stage, Xu Qingcheng was the one with the worst methods. Although the protective divine light can repel the black mist, one has to admit the fact that its effect is obviously not as good as the first two.
She was also a little helpless about this. Who told her not to have a top-notch treasure like the Ten Thousand Years Golden Thunder Bamboo? She also asked Han Li out of curiosity, but unfortunately, she didn't get any response.
】
The other party was that guy's apprentice, so she couldn't do anything but covet him.
As for Mo Juren, he is simply a monster, and it is not unusual for him to resort to any means. She had long been used to it and was too lazy to investigate. Besides, with the other party's temperament, she couldn't get anything out of it.
The stairs were very long, extending to the depths of the underground. It took the three of them about two quarters of an hour to reach the end. What comes into view is a stone door, slightly worn, with a large number of runes densely covered on the surface. There is a spiritual light flowing on it, which is obviously some kind of mysterious restriction.
What's a bit ominous is that, probably because of the age, the runes on the stone door have some faint damage, causing the flow of spiritual light to be somewhat incoherent.
This is the restriction that Han Li mentioned just now. Unexpectedly, it was placed on the stone gate.
Mo Juren looked at it carefully for a while, but his eyes suddenly stopped somewhere. There is a strange depression there, the shape seems to be exactly the same as the mysterious token.
He couldn't help but feel happy, and pressed the token immediately. Rich white light burst out instantly, and the next moment, there was only a loud bang, and the stone door slowly rose.
Passing through the stone gate, there is a special space inside. It is very large, more than a thousand feet wide, and hundreds of feet high.
There are six mysterious altars built on the ground in the central area. The one in the center is the largest and the largest, and the other five are evenly distributed in five different directions.
What shocked the three of them the most was that on the top wall of the space, there were actually stars all over the sky. Countless starlights shone freely, illuminating the entire space with an unusual brightness and a sense of mystery.
"What on earth is this place?" Mo Juren was extremely confused and could only keep observing carefully in order to get some useful information.
The most important thing is obviously the six altars. They are obviously too old and have been washed away by time, causing the appearance of the altars to look a little shabby.
However, he can still guess some situations. The distribution of these altars is not random, but follows certain rules. There is a high probability that it is some unknown formation.
As for what the formation is and what effect it has, it is unknown.
What's even more strange is that the formation doesn't seem to be turned on. The three of them can freely shuttle through it and fly up and down without encountering any hindrance.
This made the movement of the three people easier. Mo Juren walked directly to an altar and found that its entire body was densely engraved with countless ancient runes. At the top of the top, there is a small bronze cauldron. The center of the cauldron is at least black, and it is difficult to see what is there.
"Sacrifice!" Mo Juren suddenly had an idea and thought of some possibility. However, when he planned to check it, he discovered that the bronze tripod had a strong shielding effect, and neither his eyesight nor his spiritual consciousness could penetrate it.
The remaining four altars are also in a similar situation. The only difference is that the middle one does not have a bronze tripod on it, but is replaced by a mysterious stone carving.
After some observation, the three of them all flew away from the altar area, and then told the results of their respective observations one after another.
After some analysis and summary, combined with the three people's respective cognitions, they finally came to a conclusion that was not very good. This is most likely a sealing circle with something sealed underneath.
Thinking of the strange black mist containing demonic energy in the previous passage, it was obvious what was sealed, and it was most likely related to monsters.
It is strange to say that the passage is filled with black fog, but the space here is completely opposite. There is no trace of this fog, and I don't know where it came from?
Although the purpose of coming here is to hunt for treasures, they are all self-aware. For a secret realm of the level of Xutian Temple, the things it seals or suppresses must be extremely terrifying, far beyond what the three of them can handle.
If you do something rashly and release the sealed thing, you may end up with bad luck.
"How about giving up! Anyway, we are not short of treasures." Xu Qingcheng was the first to speak and gave her own advice. No one is not afraid of death, and she is no exception. Taking risks for some treasures that are not sure whether they are precious or not is just like seeking death.
Not just her, Han Li also had the same thoughts. He is the weakest being in the early stage of pill formation. Once a monster is released, he will definitely die the fastest.
However, he did not express his thoughts, but looked at the master.
"I won't overestimate my capabilities. It's good to avoid danger. But, after observing for so long, have you found a way to leave?" Mo Juren said with a helpless smile.
"this……"
Sure enough, when they heard this, Xu Qingcheng and Han Li's expressions changed dramatically. I just thought about leaving, but ignored the real situation here. Apart from the passage when I came down, is there any other way to leave?
And that passage is just a dead end and will not help at all.
It was naturally impossible to just hide here and wait for death, so the three of them were unwilling to do so, and then continued to search separately.
However, as time passed, neither Mo Juren nor Han Li noticed that Xu Qingcheng, who was standing somewhere in a corner, suddenly had a violent look in his bright eyes, which disappeared in an instant.
