Xiang Shuo remembers very clearly that one of the murals in the Ancestral Demon Temple depicts the scene of the Yuan Snake Tribe’s patriarch and high priest kneeling before a colorful crystal wall.
Later, Guanhuo also mentioned that the Yuan Snake Clan had a treasure called the Blood Refining Crystal Wall.
This crystal is glowing in five colors and has blood lines inside it. Could it be a fragment of the Blood Refining Crystal Wall? ..
The former treasure of the Abyss Snake Clan had long since shattered and collapsed, so why couldn't she see it in the Ancestral Demon Temple?
However, the Abyss Snake is a demon clan that has survived from ancient times to this day. Its cultivation far exceeds that of any sect in the world of cultivation today, and it has been hiding underground and has never appeared.
In the mural, the ancient battle took place in the front, and the sacrifices of the whole clan followed, indicating that the Blood Refining Crystal Wall was not damaged in the war and remained intact.
The shattering of the crystal wall should be a change that happened later. Who can surpass them and break the blood crystal wall?
Are they other demon clans left over from ancient times? Or... the ancient god who was resurrected in Cui Lian's mouth?
Countless questions came to mind.
Xiang Shen lowered his head and looked at the crystal in his palm, squinting slightly.
Even if such an ancient treasure is broken into fragments, some power will remain. If it can be stimulated, maybe some clues can be obtained from it.
With this thought in mind, she held the crystal slightly and poured true energy into it.
But no matter how much was poured into it, the crystals were like mud cows drowning in the sea, without any reaction.
Xiang Shen also tried to use the power of his soul, his sword intention, and even his destiny to stimulate it, but to no avail.
"It seems that the guess was wrong."
Xiang Shu released his palm and didn't feel disappointed.
After all, guesses are just guesses. Only a few of them come true. It is common to find nothing after trying.
She was about to put away the crystal and continue to control the flying sword to dig deeper into the stone wall, when the breath-collecting beads in the sea of consciousness suddenly trembled.
Her expression was slightly condensed, but before she could respond, a ray of power to deceive the sky suddenly overflowed on its own and penetrated into the crystal.
The next moment, the crystal shines brightly!
A ball of multicolored light shot out from the spar, quickly disappeared into the center of Xiang Shen's brows, and disappeared.
Xiang Shu's body suddenly softened and he fell straight down.
"Sister Li!"
Yuan Jing was shocked and quickly supported Xiang Shu while calling continuously.
But no matter how she shouted, she couldn't wake up Xiang Shu.
Xiang Shu felt his eyes go dark, and when he regained consciousness, his consciousness floated over a strange study.
She sensed herself and found that her soul was suppressed by an unknown force and could not move. Although she could hear Yuan Jing calling her outside, she could not respond.
She looked at the spacious and elegant study below, and a hint of enlightenment arose in her heart.
This is her sea of consciousness.
This picture is a fragment of memory in the crystal.
Because this memory was too huge, it was suddenly washed away, causing the soul to be suppressed.
Next, she only needs to digest a part of the memory to free her soul from the suppression, and she can wake up immediately.
After clarifying his situation, Xiang Shu felt at ease and devoted himself to the memory fragments.
As his state of mind changes, the memory fragments seem to be affected and begin to speed up.
Not long after, two half-demon with human heads and snake bodies twisted their bodies and entered the study.
Abyss Snake Clan!
Xiang Shen glanced at him and immediately recognized the old man walking in front, who was the high priest on the mural of the Ancestral Demon Temple.
The young Abyssal Snake tribe behind him had a very strange face, which did not match any of the faces on the mural.
While Xiang Shen was thinking, the scene continued.
The high priest led the young abyss snake to a bonsai and spoke slowly:
"Guess what this is?"
The young Abyss Snake stared at the potted plant for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Grandpa, this is Wei Rui Pass, one of the eight mother talisman examination passes. Is my guess right?"
The high priest showed a childish expression and pointed to a nearby fish tank, "What about here?"
The young Yuan Snake scratched his head and said, "Grandpa, you are too difficult for me. There are more than one characters related to water in the mother talisman.
Could it be Zhenguan? "
The high priest shook his head, "Wrong, guess again."
The young Yuan She looked troubled, "Then...confinement?"
The high priest laughed, "That's right! My grandson is really smart."
The young Yuan She was helpless, "Grandpa, please stop teasing me. There are only three mother talismans related to water. I guessed the second one, but I was just lucky."
The high priest put on a serious face when he heard this and snorted: "You kid, I think you just guessed wrong on purpose and don't want to take over the position of priest. Your father is like this, and so are you!"
The young Yuan She was even more helpless, "Grandpa..."
"Stop talking nonsense and guess, what is this?"
The high priest then pointed out the six furnishings in the study one by one, including the inkstone, paperweight, incense burner, rockery, and painting scroll.
The young Yuan Snake's answers became smoother and smoother.
Xiang Shen looked at it, his mind was shaken, and his eyes moved down, landing on the bonsai placed alone in the corner of the room.
Wei Ruiguan.
It turns out that the ancient forest where they were trapped was just a potted plant in the study.
This object is actually a small secret realm treasure similar to the Demon God Valley Secret Realm Bead.
And there are eight such little secrets in the study!
It seems that it should be a training level specially designed for the Abyssal Snake Clan to test the younger generation who are prohibited from entering the country.
The ancient demon clan was really rich and powerful.
The thoughts in Xiang Shen's mind turned, and the memory picture changed again.
However, the once-a-decade assessment competition has begun, and thousands of Abyssal Snakes have entered the eight major assessment stages.
The high priest and the young abyss snake were sitting in the study room, evaluating the tribesmen who were undergoing the assessment.
A large number of scenes of Abyssal Snakes cracking the assessment level were transmitted...
Xiang Shu saw many young Abyssal Snakes undergoing assessment in the ancient forest.
I saw them using their magical powers to find a way out, seeing various puppet monsters made of wood and stone blocking the way, and getting into fierce battles with many young Abyssal Snakes...
From the beginning to the end, she never saw heavy snow falling anywhere in the forest, let alone that weird snow corpse with a human face.
While Xiang Shu absorbed the cracked memories of the remaining seven levels of assessment, his thoughts gradually became more active.
The eight major assessment magic weapons are the foundation of the inheritance of the Yuan Snake clan and cannot be discarded casually.
Moreover, she could also sense the existence of the clone, which meant that the clone was now trapped in another assessment level, and this assessment level was not too far away from the Bonsai Wei Rui Level.
Otherwise, it would not be that her perception was vague, but that she could not sense it at all.
In other words, these eight secret treasures are very likely still together, and even the outside world is the study.
This is not an emperor's tomb at all, but the habitat of the Yuan She clan.
If this guess is true, it will not be difficult to restore some ancient events.
After the ancient war, the Abyss Snake clan should rest and recuperate here.
During the long years, one day, something unexpected happened to the clan, and they were harmed by the illusion, so that the clan was exterminated, and the fire of life in the Ancestral Demon Temple withered away, leaving no one alive.
Today, this small world should only be partially eroded by illusions, and it is in a state of half-truth and half-falsehood.
Although the assessment level has been affected and has become extremely dangerous, its essence has not been changed. As long as you break the level with the ban on snakes and insects, you can escape.
In this way, when she tried to decipher the Rui alphabet symbol before, she made a mistake and took the right path.
Thinking of this, Xiang Shu suddenly felt enlightened. At the same time, his soul also felt the pressure lightened. It turned out that the memory fragments had been more than half digested.
She didn't waste any more time, her consciousness returned immediately and she opened her eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Xiang Shu saw Yuan Jing's eyes that were as red as a rabbit, and couldn't help but curl his lips and chuckle: "What's going on?"
Yuan Jing was halfway crying when she suddenly heard Xiang Shu's voice. She was so frightened that she burped. The tears on her face were not gone, but she looked happy again:
"Sister Li, you finally woke up! You've been sleeping all day and night, but I'm so anxious."
"one day one Night?"
Xiang Shu smiles on his face
Sudden convergence.
In the memory fragment, she felt that she had only stayed for less than half an hour, but a whole day and night had actually passed in the outside world.
Zou Lian should have been out of trouble long ago, and there can be no further delay.
She rubbed the stinging eyebrows, stood up and pulled Yuan Jing back a few steps. At the same time, she reached out to recall the flying sword and formed a seal with her hands.
A snake and insect forbidden rune with the word "break" quickly formed in his hands.
Yuan Jing looked at the forbidden runes, her eyes widened.
Sister Li actually figured out the ban on snake and insect literature by relying on an ancient book? !
Moreover, this forbidden rune looks much more refined than his own.
Before she could finish her emotion, the word "Broken" in Xiang Sheng's palm suddenly increased several times, turning into a black light and breaking through the stone wall, leaving a passage that could be flooded by stone powder at any time.
Without saying a word, Xiang Shu grabbed Yuan Jing and rushed into the passage, closely following the "broken" character text.
Yuan Jing was so choked by the stone powder that she couldn't open her eyes, and was dragged along by Xiang Shen without realizing it.
I don't know how long it took, but there was a roar in her ears, and then she felt light all over, and a strong smell of sulfuric smoke poured into her nose.
She quickly wiped away the black dust accumulated around her eyes, opened her eyes, and saw the surrounding scene clearly.
All I could see was gray rocks all around. Occasionally, a wisp of smoke rose up from the cracks in the rocks, and the heat was amazing.
"This is... a volcano?" she said in surprise.
Xiang Shu ignored Yuan Jing.
She looked at the exit of Wei Rui Pass, pondered for a moment, formed a seal with her hands, and added a few accompanying killing prohibitions on the character "Rui".
Then another interlocking trap was added outside, and then he stopped and looked up at the new secret realm.
There are mountains of gray stone and mountain fires.
This should be the incense burner, corresponding to the character "Yuan".
She had a plan in mind and said, "Follow me."
Yuan Jing didn't ask any more questions and followed closely behind.
Not long after, the two climbed onto the crater.
Yuan Jing looked from top to bottom and could see thick smoke billowing in the mountain pass, lava flowing slowly, and popping sounds from time to time.
Yuan Jing was horrified and couldn't help but ask, "What are we doing here?"
Xiang Shu looked at the magma calmly, "Condensate the metacharacters and jump down!"
"What?!"
Yuan Jing took a breath of air and looked at the rolling lava below, feeling that she would be scalded to death in the next breath.
"Zou Lian will be chasing him soon, and we have no time to waste."
After Xiang Shen finished speaking, the runes in her hand had condensed. She jumped up without saying a word and fell into the lava with a plop.
"Sister Li, wait for me!"
Yuan Jing was so anxious that she simply changed her mind and imitated Xiang Shu's quick formula, holding on to the character "Yuan", she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes before jumping down.
