I have Taoism and can understand other worlds

Chapter 366 Going deep underground

Heaven and earth have always been unknown and longing places for people.

The ancients asked how high the sky was, how thick the earth was, and what was in it. Even after countless years have passed, these are still issues that Daqian people don’t know about.

What is there and what exists deep in the earth? What exists at the highest point in the sky has been a fantasy of people for eternity.

Even if a saint is alive and looks down between heaven and earth, he still doesn't know what is going on here. It is rumored that the ancient emperor traveled to three mountains and four seas, and traveled to the nine heavens and nine secluded places. Whether it is true or not is unknown to future generations.

Jiang Wen didn't know how far into the ground he was, as his spiritual perception had been compressed to a range of about ten meters around him. Obviously this place is not very friendly to the monks, and there is even a faint force suppressing the monks.

Feeling that the movement of mana in his body was slightly stagnant, Jiang Wen asked A Gu beside him, "Do you feel any discomfort?"

"No." A Gu shook his head, feeling nothing at all. It's just that there's less vision in front of you, he added. "It's just that it's too dark here, so I can see closer than usual."

"Really?" Jiang Wen nodded, took out the flashlight from his storage bag and handed it to A Gu.

A Gu looked at this novel gadget, played with it for a while and asked Jiang Wen how to use it.

Jiang Wen taught him to turn on the light, and the huge exploratory light instantly illuminated the dark underground. This kind of industrial search-level light is really bright, lighting up the ground like a small sun.

Although it consumes electricity, the time is short. But these are all acceptable to Jiang Wen. After all, he prepared a lot of lighting lights, at least seventy, eighty, or ninety. At worst, I'll replace it with another one when it's used up. Anyway, I won't be short of money.

As for why spells are not used to find out, one is that there is obviously a certain suppression of spiritual energy here, and the continuous effect of spells may not be good. The second is that he is afraid that mana fluctuations will cause unnecessary trouble. After all, lighting does not require mana to maintain.

Jiang Wen only chooses the right ones between spells and technology.

Of course Agu had never seen such a bright light before, and was curious as to how this small lighting thing could be so bright. Jiang Wen explained to him that it was filled with thunder and lightning, and A Gu finally understood.

With lighting, the underground environment can be seen clearly. This is a huge cave. Unlike the sea of ​​blood and flesh and earth, this is purely an underground cave with rugged rocks.

There are various sharp rocks undulating on all sides, and the lights shine on them and emit golden light. The entire cave seemed to be filled with all kinds of gold, which made Yao's eyes feel a little sore.

Walking along the cave, the further you walk, the smaller it becomes. There are more and more stalagmites around, and they feel cold to the touch. Jiang Wen tried to send mana into the stone, but it felt as if the mana had entered a bottomless black hole without any feedback.

"Could it be that the stones here can absorb mana and spiritual energy?" Jiang Wen couldn't help but frowned as he looked at the countless stones. This strange feeling was something he rarely felt.

Stones that can absorb mana are probably rare treasures placed outside. I just don’t know if these things can absorb spells. If they can, wouldn’t they have a confining effect on the monks?

I tried to break off a stalagmite and found that it was still very fragile. The threat to monks may not be that great, but it is still a restrained treasure for Dharma cultivators.

Follow the road to the depths. Hearing the sound of water, he walked several hundred steps and crossed the steep cliff. Bones were seen many times along the way, all of which were ritual objects lying beside the body, sitting dead in various places in the cave.

It was obvious that these people were lost underground and could not find a way out or go back.

There are still traces of destruction around the corpse, but they have been gradually polished by the years and have lost their original sharpness.

Even the holes drilled through can be seen in the rocks above the head, but in the end there is still no way to escape from the ground. Because it was too deep, Jiang Wen didn't know how deep it was even from above.

But he still had the intention and marked the original spot with a glow stick. There are marks left by his glow sticks and highlighters along the way. In this way, even if there is no lighting, they can still find their way back based on the fluorescence.

This can be regarded as something that magic cannot do, and Jiang Wen used foreign objects to make up for it. We walked along the waterway for another half an hour. The road ahead is rough and bumpy, and an ordinary person would probably die thousands of times. Jiang Wen and Ah Gu walked on flat ground, and after passing through the dense caves, they finally arrived at a large, open cave.

This large cave was dug out by humans. The walls of the cave are neat and carved with murals. Jiang Wen looked through the light and saw that the story on the painting was a story of a long-standing tribal battle.

The leader of the tribe believed in the divine bird and led the tribe to repel the invasion of foreign tribes. Until one day a heavy fog hit, and the entire tribe was wiped out. The tribesmen decided to go away, and they came to a magnificent city. As for the description of that magnificent city, Jiang Wen was not familiar with the ancient texts.

After all, each text in the Taicang period was different. Jiang Wen could know several, but he could not know all of them.

Just as he was about to jump over these murals, A Gu, who was following him, suddenly said: "The great Holy City has saved the Yuyun clan from disaster."

"What are you talking about?" Jiang Wen asked.

"I seem to be able to recognize the words on this mural." A Gu said.

"You mean you know the words on it?"

Jiang Wen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the things under the ground had some connection with A Gu.

Out of curiosity, he asked A Gu to read out all the words written on the mural one by one.

"The god is dead. He died because of people's rebellion."

"When the supreme spirit returns from the Netherworld, betrayal will finally be punished."

……

Countless strokes form a mythical story, which tells the story of a person named Yuyun who came to the Holy City from the disaster of heavy fog and then followed the gods. But the gods will die, and die in the betrayal of the people of the Holy City. The people of the Yuyun clan were very angry about this. They left the Holy City with some of the bones of the god and buried the god underground close to Jiuyou.

The Yuyun people predicted that the slain god would eventually return, and he would liquidate all those who betrayed him.

After all the stories were over, Jiang Wen finally understood who the person who created this cave was.

"The Yuyun Clan? I've never heard of it." Jiang Wen was a little regretful. He had indeed never heard of this tribe.

The Yuyun people buried the god's bones here, but looking at the empty surroundings, Jiang Wen doubted whether the story was true. Or is it really a god buried by the Yuyun tribe?

Walking along the cave, more and more passages appeared in front of them. Countless statues stand together, and those statues that look like warriors are placed on both sides of the road.

Many metal utensils can be seen everywhere, but gold, silver and jewelry have become the most inconspicuous things here.

It can be seen that people have been here before, and there are even quite a few people here.

Some people turned into bones and stayed here, while others found a way out and escaped.

Scattered funerary objects were everywhere, including many utensils that Jiang Wen had seen during his Taicang period.

"So, who is buried here?" Jiang Wen was a little curious, and then they came to a huge stone door.
