After the world collapsed

Chapter 9
"Where did you first come to Mortal Realm?"

Zhang Sheng was thoughtful after hearing this, he always felt that the old way was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"I am not from the two countries of Dongyang. I was transferred here by a large transfer order that I got by chance."

Wen Yang was taken aback by what the old man said, but Zhang Sheng didn't feel anything. He knew that he was picked up by the old man, and all kinds of strange spells on the old man, it would be no wonder that a teleportation order would be no surprise.

What surprised Wen Yang was nothing but the old Taoist saying that he was not a local but an outsider.She doesn't know how many years Izumo and Dongyang have been trapped by this dense fog, but her father once heard from his father that what he wants to do most in his lifetime is to go out and see the outside world.

"Master, what does the outside of the Lianyun Mountains look like? Are they all immortal cultivators like you?"

Wen Yang couldn't help asking.

The old Taoist paused slightly after hearing this and said, "Actually, I don't know either."

Wen Yang pouted, thinking that the old man didn't want to tell her this earlier.How did she know that the old man really didn't know what the outside of the Lianyun Mountain Range was like.

"Okay, let's go down and have a look." The old man walked towards the statue in the middle of the pavilion not far behind him.

"under?"

Zhang Sheng walked closer and took a closer look. He saw a lion head, antlers, tiger eyes, ox tail, and scales on its body. He had never heard of this kind of strange beast.

"If I remember correctly, this should be the legendary beast Qilin." The old man's voice came, and he walked slowly down the stone steps behind the statue.

It turned out that the downward rotating stone steps were blocked by the statue, and for some reason it was moved away. Could it be that the old Taoist discovered this secret passage?Zhang and Sheng hurriedly followed.

"The mythical beast unicorn, it is said that it has a gentle temperament, possesses all kinds of magic but does not harm humans and animals, and does not step on caterpillar fungus, so it is called an auspicious beast. It uses the unicorn image as a mechanism to protect the mountain. Its owner is not a treacherous person. It shouldn't be too dangerous, but we still have to be careful."

The old Taoist walked in front and talked from time to time, the stone steps kept circling downwards, and Zhang Sheng, who had just recovered from his serious injury, was a little dizzy when he walked.Surrounded by uneven stone walls, it seems that there are no hidden traps.

But after walking for a while, the stone steps came to an end, and the three of them had already walked along the stone steps to the lower level.There is really no light at all below, at this time Wen Yang took out the night pearl again, except for the night pearl, the rest of the place is pitch black.

Seeing this, the old Taoist waved his hand, and the surrounding area suddenly became brighter, and Zhang Sheng also secretly clicked his tongue while watching.Although the old Taoist gave him the appearance of an outsider since he was a child, at most he knew some weird things. Today the old Taoist seems to be different.

The darkness in front of them was lit up by some kind of spell that the old Taoist did not know, and a pitch-black courtyard wall appeared there.

There is a dark purple gate in the middle of the courtyard wall, and directly above the gate is a plaque with the words "Pojun" written on it.

"Pojun Mansion?" The old Taoist seemed to be descending to this floor for the first time, seeing the mansion in front of him for the first time, and never heard of this mansion.

"Why is this Pojun Mansion built in such a dark place?" Princess Wenyang asked as she walked slowly towards Pojun Mansion with the old Taoist.

I have to say that the dark courtyard walls and the dark purple gate still look quite depressing in this environment. Although they don't have that kind of bloody and murderous aura, the ordinary youngsters probably dare not approach it easily.

The old man was the first to walk, he hesitated for a moment, but reached out and knocked on the door.

Strange to say, this kind of quaint courtyard door with two doors should have knockers on both sides for people to knock on the door, but this door does not.

It stands to reason that this kind of rare mountain mansion is located in the underground secret valley at the same time, it must be some kind of relic, and there is no way there is anyone there.

The old man did this only out of politeness, or to test whether there is a trap or not. If you forcefully break into this kind of place, some kind of trap may be triggered. There may be countless ways to open the door, and knocking is just one of them.

However, the old man's actions did not receive any response, and there was not a single strange sound inside the door.

"There isn't even a light stand on the surrounding walls, so it doesn't look like there is a mechanism." Wen Yang looked around and said to himself.

Zhang Sheng walked a little slowly due to his back injury, and then he came to the vicinity, and just stopped, only to hear a creak, and the two doors opened slowly inward, one from the left and the other from the right.

The old Taoist signaled Wen Yang to take a step back, glanced at Zhang Sheng and said thoughtfully:

"Zhang Sheng, Wen Yang, I don't know what dangers and opportunities there are. I must go through it. I was teleported here back then. It must have something to do with this broken military mansion. You two decide for yourself."

Zhang Sheng was fine, but Wen Yang hesitated.The purpose of her trip is to get the Diyang Fruit to get rid of her marriage. Now that the Diyang Fruit is not in hand, if the foreigner enters here and delays time, it will be ruined.

The old Taoist seemed to see Wen Yang's concerns, and said to her:
"Master, I know your concerns, and I don't recommend you to enter this place. It seems to have something to do with Zhang Sheng. And judging from the visions in the past few days, the outside world has changed, and the immortal energy has begun to seep into this place." It's over, remember what my teacher told you yesterday?"

Zhang Sheng didn't understand what the old man said to Wen Yang, what did they say yesterday?

Wen Yang nodded, and saw Zhang Sheng, who was puzzled, explain: "Master told me yesterday that my chance is outside and not here, so I won't go in."

After saying this, Wen Yang seemed to have made up his mind again, looking at the two of them, he said:
"Master, Junior Brother, then I will wait here for three days. If the two of you haven't appeared after three days, then Wen Yang will leave on his own. If the outside world changes as Master said, then his Japanese Wen Yang's cultivation level will be limited." When you make progress, you must come back and find out.”

If there is any danger in this mansion that even the old Tao can't solve, then Wen Yang will give her life for nothing if she goes in. If she can really achieve something with the Juling Jue as the old Tao said, this is what the old Tao wants to see.

Hearing this, the old Taoist smiled and nodded, this girl didn't know that she was looking forward to something better.

"Go."

After finishing speaking, the old Taoist took two steps forward and entered the door. Zhang Sheng and Wen Yang behind only saw the old Taoist in the darkness of the entrance, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Sheng bid farewell to his senior sister, turned around and disappeared through the door.

Wen Yang watched nervously as the two disappeared into the gate, and then the gate was quickly closed.

There were master and younger brother there before, so she didn't feel how gloomy this place was. Now she is the only one left. Although the light left by the old Taoist is still there, but looking at the upward stone steps and the surroundings of the Pojun mansion, Wen Yang Still couldn't help but hugged his arms.

Soon, she remembered what the old Taoist said before leaving, and immediately found the brightest place to sit down and run the Juling Jue.

Sure enough, although the so-called immortal energy here is not as abundant as above, it still exists. It is estimated that it has infiltrated before. The immortal energy is absorbed from the outside into the body through the spirit gathering art, and turns into strands of energy that penetrate into the limbs and bones. It felt like she had never experienced it before when she practiced Ju Ling Jue.

Wen Yang felt that not only the mind, but also the functions of the body and even the meridians were constantly changing. Although the changes were minimal, she was in this extremely quiet place without any external interference, and she could feel all the changes around or in her body. Clearly.

Besides, on the old way's side, as soon as he stepped into the gate of Pojun Mansion, he lost his mind for a moment.This kind of feeling made him feel familiar, it was the feeling when he used the ancient teleportation token back then.

But the hall in front of him and the stars on the top of the hall stunned the old Taoist and Zhang Sheng who came in behind.

……

At this time, Dongyang King was dealing with government affairs.

The visions in the past few days, accompanied by the rumors of the existence of immortal cultivators from Princess Wenyang, have already caused chaos among the people. Some people feel that they are in danger, because there are rumors that their monks from Dongyang Kingdom have provoked the true gods in the sky. The immortal will bring disaster.Others began to burn incense to invite the gods, hoping that one day the immortals would be blessed with blessings.

The trial of Princess Wenyang has long been completely forgotten by everyone, and the three-day appointment will arrive soon.

It was the third day since everyone went down the cliff, and noon was the hour agreed by Princess Wenyang.The king of Dongyang learned from Wenyang's personal servant girl that she had sneaked off the cliff, and he had been worried for a long time. Today, he took the imperial city guards to sit beside the cliff and wait for the news.

The first person to come up was a young man with short hair. King Dongyang remembered that he was also one of the people in the banquet that day. Judging from his expression, it seemed that he hadn't got the Diyang fruit.

Soon, several people came back one after another, including the second son of Lei's family. Except for Princess Wenyang and Qi Mo, King Dongyang didn't care much about them.

Not long after, Qi Mo also came up along the rope. There are many buckles on this kind of rope. Send multiple people up.

Qi Mo saluted Dongyang King, looked around and did not see Princess Wenyang, and frowned slightly.

King Dongyang walked towards him, as if he knew what King Dongyang wanted to ask, Qi Mo said directly in a low voice:

"Qi Mo has met King Dongyang, but I didn't go with the princess, so I don't know much about it."

Hearing this, King Dongyang sighed and walked back, wondering if something unexpected happened to this girl?
Almost all the people who should come up have come up, the time has passed, and there are still many who did not come to participate in the trial of the cliff, they should have left long ago.After asking each other, all the forces found that none of them had obtained the Diyang Fruit, so they left one after another. Originally, they would at least leave it to the end to see who would have the chance to be the son-in-law. However, the changes in the outside world these days made all the forces ready to move .

The agreed time has passed, and no one has obtained the so-called Diyang fruit that Princess Wenyang said, so Princess Wenyang's marriage can only be postponed.Most people didn't know that Princess Wenyang also went down the cliff. They just thought she was disappointed so they didn't come to the scene, but it was King Dongyang who came to make them unaware.

The sky was getting dark, and the forces from all sides left one after another, and there were not many people left. King Dongyang didn't have the heart to announce any follow-up decisions about the marriage at this time, and directly arranged for people to send all parties away.

"Can't something really happen?"

King Dongyang didn't dare to think too much about bad consequences, so he had to go back to the palace first, and had people guard here day and night, and immediately reported the news of the princess.

On the way back, Qi Mo began to study the extra immortal energy around him. As a monk in the early stage of Qi refining, he had absorbed some spiritual energy gathered for him by his master, but it was only that one time.

Since then, Qi Mo has never encountered aura. Although this opportunity was only once, this unforgettable feeling also made him remember deeply.

But when he descended into the secret valley, he saw visions in the air one after another, and then he also felt a special existence in the surrounding air, not aura, but it seemed to be better than aura, Qi Mo called it for the time being For the new aura.

At that time, he didn't dare to directly absorb into the body for refining, but decided to ask the master after returning.

It wasn't until he walked out of the secret valley that he found that the new spiritual energy outside had almost taken over.This made him make up his mind to see if he could try to absorb part of the refinement.

Qi Mo learned a whole set of True Flame Art from Taoist Xianyang, which naturally included how to absorb spiritual energy and refine it into spiritual power.

He also didn't know if this aura-like substance could be absorbed and refined by this technique, but he had to try it out.

The True Flame Jue started to work, and the surrounding special gas began to gather towards him slowly, how slow?As slow as you want!
"It doesn't matter, absorbing a little is a little."

Qi Mo gritted his teeth, and poured all the spiritual power that was left in his body before, and the dantian was unimpeded. As traces of special gas were inhaled into his body, he gradually had a more wonderful feeling than when he first entered the Qi refining stage. Feel.
