After a while, everyone in the Xunlong Gate had already walked back. Guo Xuejun, who was walking in the first place, had a flushed face and said happily: "We just checked the patterns on those doors. If we guessed correctly, this ruins must be arranged according to the five elements principle. ."
"Five Elements?" Cao Hong looked around and frowned, "So this is the Fire Palace, right?"
"Yes," Guo Xuejun motioned for everyone to come closer, took out the banknotes and began to draw. Not long after, he had drawn a five-element diagram on the paper and explained, "The patterns of the two gates on the left and right refer to the two lines of earth and wood respectively. As for the last one, The fan is a bit weird, it seems to be an emblem, but I can’t see the origin of the emblem.”
Shi Chishang stared at the Five Elements Diagram, raised his eyebrows and said, "If this ruins is arranged according to the Five Elements, then this gate may lead to the center of the ruins."
Liu Xuelei nodded and said: "We also guessed this, but we checked and found that the door is covered with many restrictions and it is absolutely difficult to open."
Lu Qingming frowned and said, "Could it be this magic circle?"
Seeing everyone watching, the former mused: "Although there is flame iron in this hall, I think it is just that it has been transformed by the penetration of fire spiritual energy over time. The most important thing is this magic circle, no matter what the restrictions are. It is powerful, but it also requires energy supply, and maybe that energy is this magic circle."
Everyone groaned after hearing the words. Cao Hong took out the exploration book and flipped to a page. After looking at it for a few times, he clicked his tongue: "The book said the same thing."
Shi Chishang rolled his eyes, ignored the woman, and asked: "If this place is indeed arranged according to the five elements, then there should be magic circles in several other places. Will they form a balance with each other? Once we break this magic circle, Will it cause an imbalance in the power of the five elements?"
Although everyone in Xunlongmen is a warrior, the Kanyu Secret Technique they have learned also contains knowledge about the Taoist system. Several elders discussed for a moment, and Guo Xuejun said in a deep voice: "This place is arranged based on the Five Elements principle. This is just our preliminary guess. If you want to verify it, you have to go out and check it yourself.”
Fang Xian heard the smell and frowned: "According to the agreement, we only need to fulfill our duty to protect you. This matter of exploration and inspection..."
Guo Xuejun chuckled and said calmly: "If the speculation is true, then there will be five halls. There is flame iron here, but what about the other places?"
Shi Chishang's heart moved, and he realized that Fang Xian, Qian Feng and others all had expectant expressions on their faces. He knew that most of these people also needed spiritual gold, but what he needed was Haoran Zijin. Zijin was the master of spiritual gold. If If there are any here, they are probably in the Golden Palace.
Glancing at the Five Elements Map, Shi Chishang said calmly: "The condition is that we help you explore it. What are the benefits?"
Guo Xuejun smiled and said: "Each party can choose thirty kilograms of flaming iron, how about it?"
Fang Xian sneered and said sarcastically: "Elder Guo, I, Chunyang Guan, am not a boudoir girl who does not touch the water of Yang Chun. Although the flame iron is precious, its price is not high. You want to fool us with a mere thirty kilograms?"
Guo Xuejun is an old man and has a very thick skin. What he said just now was just a test. He immediately smiled and said: "What do you think is appropriate?"
"Five hundred catties." Qian Feng was not polite and said with a smile.
Liu Xuelei shook his head: "Five hundred pounds is too much."
"Three hundred kilograms," Lu Qingming said calmly.
Seeing a few people arguing, Shi Chishang suddenly smiled and said: "If there are really four other halls, then according to the attributes of the five elements, there can't be flame iron there, right?"
Everyone was startled when they heard this, and Fang Xian also reacted and nodded excitedly: "Yes! There may be other attributes of spiritual gold there, not just flame iron."
Guo Xuejun glanced at Shi Chishang with a meaningful look, and smiled calmly: "Of course it's not just Yan Jingtie, so what do you guys think? There are only two roads on the left and right. We sent two groups of people out to explore. There is no need to explore too much. Just make sure that the two halls on the left and right are earth and wood halls and then step back."
Everyone knew that he had not finished speaking yet and did not continue. Guo Xuejun did not care and continued: "If this place is indeed arranged according to the five elements, then there must be five kinds of spiritual gold. You can choose one at that time and take away three hundred Jin, how about it?"
This amount was just above the bottom line in everyone's mind, and everyone nodded in agreement.
After drawing lots, it was finally decided that Shi Chishang and others and the Mantis Sect would go out to explore in two groups, while Chunyang Temple and Xuanqing Temple would stay behind to protect everyone in the Xunlong Sect.
The two gates engraved with earth and wood patterns were the same as the previous gates. They had no mechanism. Shi Chishang opened them easily, and then left with Shi Yirui, Cao Hong, Chen Yixia, and Zheng Duobao. Got out.
There is also a tunnel outside the door, but the air is significantly less hot than inside the hall. It seems that the hall can isolate the hot breath emanating from the magic circle.
The five people walked along the tunnel for a while, and Chen Yixia suddenly chuckled and said, "It's a bit interesting."
Shi Yirui was startled and asked in confusion: "What's interesting?"
"People from Chunyang Temple, or maybe Xuanqing Temple." Shi Chishang said lightly.
Shi Yirui and Zheng Duobao were both confused. Cao Hong held the sword and said with a smile: "Xiao Shiyi, didn't you notice? It was obviously the first time we met them, but that Fang Xian just shouted The old name came out."
Zheng Duobao's eyes widened and he asked in shock: "How did they know about Brother Shi?"
"That's the problem," Chen Yixia looked at Shi Chishang and said calmly, "I know that you have been searching for spiritual gold recently, so I asked a favor to find this mission. My master and the leader of the Xunlongmen used to be comrades in arms, and I swear that I will never No information about you has been disclosed to the outside world."
Shi Chishang smiled and said calmly: "I have no intention of doubting you, and when your master goes to Longmen to ask for a place, he will definitely only mention you and not me. Then the problem comes. People who are looking for Longmen It seems that this is the first time you meet me, and there is nothing special about me, so how do people from Chunyang Temple know me?"
"I don't have much fame. The only time I interacted with the outside world was at least when I explored the ruins at Pinghu." Shi Chishang smiled with a smile on his face and his eyes were inexplicably bright. "And even if I made some limelight that time, I was only the first person at that time. At the eighth level, you are not qualified to spread your name to Shanxi, right?"
"Le Wei," Cao Hongxing narrowed her eyes and said in a serious voice, "It's Le Wei's relationship."
"The eldest lady of the Yin Yang Sect?" Shi Yirui blinked her eyes. She didn't understand the situation of Ghost Dao in the country. Naturally, she didn't know that Yu Lewei was the number one among the younger generation of Ghost Dao. She asked curiously, "She also What's wrong?"
"Things are a bit complicated, you can ask your dad later, he should know," Shi Chishang said thoughtfully, "Then, did they know about me before, did they just happen to meet me this time, or did they have a plan? "
"It was planned a long time ago," Zheng Duobao expressed his opinion for the first time. "Looking at Fang Xian's character, if they had known about Brother Shi before, they would have revealed it from the beginning instead of just letting it slip in excitement."
Seeing that everyone was surprised, Zheng Duobao scratched his hair and said sheepishly: "I learned some logic routines from playing werewolf before, so I guess you're right?"
"That's right," Shi Chishang nodded with a deep look in his eyes and sneered, "That would be more intriguing. Is it that they have any conspiracy to catch me? It doesn't make much sense, right?"
"Perhaps it's to see how good you are," Chen Yixia frowned slightly with her sharp eyebrows, and said hesitantly, "Although my Yaxia Sect is not big, it still has some connections. I have heard about the Taoist sect's attitude towards your girlfriend. , maybe they sent Chunyang Temple and Xuanqing Temple here to see what you are capable of first."
"Observe old times?" Shi Yirui was startled, then nodded thoughtfully, "It's possible."
Holding the hilt of the sword, Shi Chishang's eyes flashed with a bit of coldness. Since the Taoist sect was here to observe him, it might as well let them observe him more carefully.
Sensing the murderous aura in Shi Chishang, Chen Yixia pursed her lips and said nothing. Since the Taoist sect had plans for Shi Chishang first, no matter what Shi Chishang did, it could not be considered too much.
While talking, the five of them had been walking along the tunnel for a few minutes. The heat around them gradually disappeared, and the surrounding cave walls gradually became solid, as if they had walked from mud to cement.
Noticing the changes in the surrounding environment, everyone knew that the theory of the five elements was probably true, because the aura around them had indeed slowly changed to the earth element, and the pressure in the air had gradually increased, making the physical exertion of walking gradually increase.
"Be careful." Shi Chishang warned, lifting the Songfeng Sword and extending his thoughts forward to prevent enemies from lurking in the tunnel.
Cao Hong and Chen Yixia looked at each other, each raised their weapons, and stood on both sides of Shi Yirui and Zheng Duobao, responsible for protecting them.
After walking for more than a minute, Shi Chishang's mind suddenly caught sight of something and he said in a concentrated voice: "Be careful!"
Before the other four could clearly see what was ahead, there were bursts of spiritual energy fluctuations in the tunnel ahead, and more than a dozen stone balls the size of footballs had broken through the air and made a dull whistling sound.
With a flash of sword light, Shi Chishang swung his sword forward and chopped the dozen stone balls into pieces. Then he raised his sword eyebrows and watched as several giant bulls covered in thick mud appeared from the tunnel in front, roaring toward a few People rushed.
"Sure enough, they are earth monsters!" Chen Yixia whispered when she saw the thick mud on those monster beasts.
Shi Chishang gave a soft shout and concentrated his sword light to slash forward. The earth element was the best at defense, so he did not use the Shadow Sword Technique, but instead used the Starlight Sword Technique to meet him. The bright starlight was vast and endless, rushing forward like a river. And go.
The mud on those giant bulls looked fragile, but in fact they were full of flexibility. When Shi Chishang slashed them away with his indestructible sword light, they were all submerged in the mud, as if the mud bulls had entered the sea without causing any ripples.
The sword was ineffective, Shi Chi Shang's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and suddenly Chen Yixia stepped forward and shouted: "Wood overcomes the earth, attack them with wood spells!" Before she finished speaking, she had already drawn out the short sword that had a strong spring charm. , grabbed the side of the giant bull in the front, slashed with his sword, and actually chopped off the giant bull's head without any hindrance.
The bull's head just fell to the ground and melted into a puddle of mud together with its burly body.
Shi Chishang was stunned. He didn't know any wood magic. Even among the hundreds of kendo imprints at the bottom of the soul sea, there was not a single wood kendo!
Seeing him in a daze, Cao Hong guessed the truth and said with an angry smile: "Mu and Earth are just attributes that conflict with each other. It's not like other attributes can't kill them. Why are you standing there so stupidly?"
When Shi Chishang came back to his senses, his figure flashed like a ghost approaching, but he put away the Songfeng Sword in his hand, replaced it with the Sujin Sword and slashed forward. At the same time, he cast the Five Thunder Curse, but the power of the five thunders was condensed into the sword. With the sharp edge, the thunder wings on the back spread out, and the thunder on the sword edge was like a dragon. The sword cut hard and cut the giant bull in two.
Killing the enemy with one sword, Shi Chishang's figure glided again. The thunder wings behind him continued to condense the thunder power into the sword's edge. The sword's light was like a seven-meter-long thunder blade, and it broke through the mud on the body of a giant bull and chopped it down. A bull's head.
Although Chen Yixia's cultivation at this time was not as good as Shi Chishang's, she was able to break through the mud defense with the short knife that lingered in the spring charm, and her killing speed was only half a minute slower than Shi Chishang's.
In just one minute, the two men had already killed the giant bulls that rushed out.
