"...Let's go take a look."
Zhang Yao thought about it over and over again, and finally decided to go investigate.
He didn't know exactly what location this green bead corresponded to, but Yu Wenhua obviously knew some inside information.
Since Yu Wenhua could patiently stay in Lu country and wait for the opportunity, it means that there is obviously no danger in that place, at least for him.
One of the most important reasons why Zhang Yao was able to make this judgment was the green bead in his hand.
"This bead is not a magic weapon, and it has no effects such as bloodline detection or mana identification."
"In other words, no matter who gets it, they can use it and detect the corresponding location..."
Zhang Yao felt more at peace when he thought of this.
There are only two reasons why Yu Wenhua can wait safely:
First, the builder of that place had a close relationship with the ancestors of the Liu family, so he had some special skills and tricks to avoid danger.
Second, there is no danger in that place at all. As long as you go there with the 'key', you can open the door and enter.
Judging from the characteristics of this green bead, it is obviously the latter situation.
"boom!"
Zhang Yao controlled the flying sword and turned into a stream of yellow light, leaving Wuyin Island and heading towards Qinzhou.
“If you don’t take what God has given you, you will suffer the consequences.”
"If you don't dare to take the opportunity when it comes to your door, wouldn't you really be a coward?"
…………
More than half an hour later.
Zhang Yao traveled hundreds of miles and came to Cangmang Mountain in Qinzhou.
Deep in the Cangmang Mountain, you can vaguely see the broken mountain roads, and among the large ruins, the grass is desolate.
"Times have changed, and Cangmang City has also disappeared..."
Zhang Yao sighed secretly and recalled the prosperous years of those years.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Lu State, Cangmang City occupies a favorable geographical location and a dangerous natural environment, and there is a martial arts master sitting in the city, so it can be in a corner of peace.
But when Lu's national power grew stronger and Nie Luncai died of old age, Cangmang City was captured by the imperial army and fell into ruins.
The canal gang in Jiangzhou still exists today, because there will always be people who rely on water transportation to make a living. As long as it is still under control, the court will tolerate it.
But once a separatist force like Cangmang City, a state within a state, is destroyed, there will be no chance of rebuilding.
"Well, it seems it's almost here..."
Zhang Yao's expression moved slightly, the response in his mind became stronger and stronger, and the green beads in his hand began to buzz and vibrate.
After going deeper for a while, Zhang Yao came to a canyon, lowered his escape light, and explored it carefully.
"strangeness……"
Zhang Yao explored the canyon, but found nothing, and couldn't help but frown.
He was certain that this was the place opposite to Echo, but let alone the ruins and the entrance, he didn't find even a trace of man-made traces.
No matter how you look at it, this is a natural canyon with no human habitation.
"Um……"
Zhang Yao pondered for a moment and gave up searching on his own. Instead, he used the feedback from the green beads in his hand to start exploring bit by bit.
After spending several hours:
Finally, he stood in front of a cliff and determined that this was the place with the strongest vibration feedback and the most likely entrance.
"How can this be?"
Zhang Yao tried for a moment and couldn't help but be a little shocked.
After getting the answer, he checked the cliff again, but the result was the same as before.
He didn't notice any traces of formations or restrictions.
In other words, even if there was something obviously wrong with this cliff, he couldn't find it.
"The secrets hidden here may be more amazing than I imagined."
Zhang Yao took a deep breath and caught some wild animals to touch the cliff. He observed carefully and thought deeply at the same time.
After a while, he carefully reached out his right hand.
The moment the green bead on the right hand touched the rock——
His eyes flashed, and he suddenly found that the cliff in front of him disappeared out of thin air, and a long gap appeared in the cliff.
"call……"
Zhang Yao took a deep breath and walked slowly along the gap in the cliff.
After only a dozen feet, the sight suddenly opened up. On the square paved with white jade, a majestic palace stood, magnificent, exquisite and full of atmosphere.
In front of the palace, a tall white jade tablet was engraved with a few simple characters - Bingliu Earth Meridian Node.
"Leyline node?"
Zhang Yao's expression moved slightly and he was lost in thought.
Qinzhou has been known as "among the world" since ancient times. It is the central state among the nineteen states.
Cangmang Mountain is located exactly in the center of Qinzhou, which can be said to be the "origin of the earth" for the entire Lu State.
"What does this so-called leyline node actually represent?"
"There is also this palace where I don't know who built it..."
Zhang Yao thought for a moment, then walked around to the back of the white jade monument and found a map engraved on it.
He looked at it carefully for a moment and recognized that the central part of the map was the territory of the nineteen states of Lu.
In this vast map, the territory of the nineteen states of Lu is like a designed puzzle piece, perfectly pieced together with several other maps.
What separates these "puzzle pieces" are dark and thick lines, which clearly represent the barren belt that divides the country.
"Map, deserted zone..."
Zhang Yao thought for a moment and had some guesses in his mind, but without any more clues, he could only suppress the matter for the time being.
He walked deeper along the White Jade Square and climbed to the magnificent and towering palace.
The palace was completely empty. The floor tiles were made of some kind of dark yellow metal without any decoration or relief. It looked extremely simple.
And in the deepest part of the palace:
In a small pool about several feet square, the turquoise water was constantly churning, and there was a smaller white jade monument standing next to it.
"Looks like we've arrived."
Zhang Yao perked up and came to the small pool, taking the first look at the small white jade monument.
On this white jade stele, there are a few lines of small characters with strong and powerful strokes:
"Earth nodes cannot be destroyed. Anyone who dares to disobey will be punished by all the monks in the world!"
"Earth soul crystals are born every sixty years. The younger generation of monks can get them by themselves if they hold the earth vein spirit beads."
Zhang Yao's expression changed:
"Earth Soul Crystal? This sounds like a good thing!"
He turned to look at the small pool on the side, and saw some light yellow crystals scattered in the endlessly rolling turquoise water.
At a glance, there are at least a dozen pieces.
"There are actually so many..."
Zhang Yao was slightly surprised.
According to the inscription, this earth soul crystal can only be produced every sixty years, that is, three hundred and sixty years.
There are so many earth soul crystals in this pool, which means that no one has been here for at least thousands of years.
"This leyline node is related to the barren zone. I'm afraid it was built in ancient times."
"I don't know what happened during this period..."
Zhang Yao held the earth vein spirit bead in his hand and carefully cast the 'Photography Spell' to capture the earth soul crystals in the pool.
"Shua!" "Shua"...
Light yellow crystals separated from the pool water and fell on the floor tiles.
