Beast Taming·Chapter 127: Hidden Dragons in a Different Land
Under the towering Chatian Peak, there is a desolate ruin of an ancient city hidden. Canglan said that this is the predecessor of Zhongtong Jianmen, and it is the place where the founder of Zhongtong Jianmen opened the sect and accepted disciples when he first came to Zimu Liuhua Domain.
Shi Yan couldn't believe that the largest sect in Zimu Liuhua Territory was so plain and simple hundreds of years ago. Just think about the current Zhongtong Jianmen, which is bright and beautiful, and exudes luxury everywhere.
That's right, the place where Shi Yan and others are now is the Zhongtong Jianmen territory that they just escaped from. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Shi Yan made a big circle, walked westward from the extreme north, passed through the Hundred Trees Forest, and sneaked all the way.
OK, it took seven days to carefully get back to Zhongtong Jianmen.
During these seven days, they occasionally encountered groups of pursuers from Zhongtong Jianmen along the way. It was estimated that there were nearly a thousand people. This meant that 70% to 80% of the people from Zhongtong Jianmen had left. This was the best place to hide while the gate was empty.
Place.
Moreover, Shi Yan saw through Gong Yang Yi Chen's arrogance and thought that with the heavy defense of Zhongtong Jianmen, it would be impossible for others to sneak in unnoticed. However, he did not know that there was an old phoenix that had lived for nearly a thousand years beside Shi Yan.
A chance!
"If that old man knew that the Zhongtong Sword Sect he founded had become what it is now, he would probably be so angry that he would jump out of his grave." Cang Lan laughed and said, "Thinking back then, that old man was such a kind person. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, but his disciples
But my descendants are like this."
Shi Yan and Ye Yier sneaked all the way, bypassed the Chatian Peak, used Cang Lan's method to avoid the sonic attack, and came to the other side of the Chatian Peak, a huge valley.
It was a ruined site, buried in weeds and vines, surrounded by yellow-green bushes and shrubs. From a distance, one could see two ruined round towers standing tall, silent in the cold moonlight.
"The old man was once instructed by a senior monk from Nalanda Temple, so his path was a little biased towards Buddhism. Therefore, he was unable to break through and said 'everything returns to nothingness' after his ascension, and let the place where he ascension was developed on its own." Canglan sighed, "At that time, this
The land is the center of Zhongtong Jianmen. Although it is the foot of Chatian Peak, it is also a place that thousands of people admire. But now it is so dilapidated. No matter how glorious the palace is, it can't withstand the ravages of time!" Canglan sighed with regret.
Over the years, he has seen too many examples of people dying because they were unable to make breakthroughs, which is a pity.
Shi Yan and his companions walked along a small road in the suburbs towards the dilapidated temple. The low and undulating mountains on both sides looked like the backs of wild beasts in the night. From time to time, a few strange roars could be heard, tearing through the silence of the sky. In the distance,
After avoiding the attack of the sound waves, the sound of the rushing water sounded not much different from that of an ordinary waterfall.
As we got closer, we could still clearly see the two characters Jingkong at the gate of the dilapidated temple. These two characters were not engraved with magic weapons, but were written by the founder of Zhongtong Jianmen himself with ordinary cinnabar, and there was no blessing added.
After years, the cinnabar has not yet fallen off.
"The original name of Zhongtong Jianmen was Jingkong, but it was changed by his disciples after the old man died. It was from then on that Zhongtong Jianmen embarked on a path that was very different from what its founder had thought." Canglan revealed a secret from the past, which was astonishing.
Walking carefully on the main road of Jingkong Temple, there are pyramid-shaped platforms on both sides, like desolate tombs. Thick gray fog is floating around, giving off an ethereal and illusory atmosphere. Occasionally, a few wisps of phosphorescent light jump out at your feet, just like a dark city in the underworld.
Ye Yier nervously grabbed Shi Yan's arm, buried her head in it, closed her eyes and dared not look, but from time to time she would curiously open a small gap to watch. This playful look of wanting to eat grapes but being afraid that they would be sour made Shi Yan laugh out loud.
When he was about to enter the Jingkong Gate, an invisible barrier suddenly appeared in front of Shi Yan, making it difficult for him to move forward.
"What's going on?" Seeing Shi Yan suddenly stop in his tracks, Ye Yier raised her head and asked with wide eyes in confusion.
"It's a barrier!" Canglan flew to the door and said seriously.
"Barrier?!" Shi Yan said in surprise. This barrier is purely defensive and seems to be intended only to prevent outsiders from entering. It would be fine if it was placed outside the sect, but it was placed inside the sect. What was the purpose of this?
Although the place where the master passed away was very sacred, it would not stop the disciples from going there to worship. Moreover, according to Cang Lan, the master of Zhongtong Sword Sect said that everything should be left to nature before he passed away. Then who was the one who set up the protective barrier here?
"There must be some unspeakable secret hidden in here! That's why the other party spent a lot of energy to set up a barrier to prohibit outsiders from entering." Cang Lan thought for a moment and said lightly, then he sneered, "But even with such a lowly barrier, you can't imagine
Block me? Even though my current cultivation level is only at the level of Transformation, it is still very easy to break through it."
He flew to the door and searched carefully, and finally opened his mouth and spit out a ball of fire at a certain point. Just when Shi Yan was curious about what he was doing, a faint light suddenly flashed through the barrier and an invisible door opened.
"It's done!" Canglan was delighted and flew in flapping his wings.
Shi Yan followed him in. Suddenly, countless strange noises rang in his ears, "clack la" like the sound of bones being pulled, which was very scary.
After a moment, the strange sound disappeared completely, and the view in front of me suddenly became bright. As I walked forward, I could hear the rumbling sound of water.
The sound of rushing water was like thunder, echoing in my ears thrillingly. All around was a vast expanse of white, with huge waves rolling. Looking upward along the waves, I saw a huge waterfall sloping down, which was actually much larger than the Sound Killing Waterfall.
Next to the waterfall, on a straight cliff, a series of small temples are suspended in the air, spiraling upwards like stairs, and each small temple is shaped like a Bagua pattern. Standing right below and looking up, you will find that these floating small temples actually form a pattern.
A small temple shaped like the Bagua was used as the base, and a cone-shaped pattern was drawn. Many small dots and vertical lines were pressed around the cone. In the center of the pattern, there was a high platform. I don’t know what was placed on the platform, but it actually emitted a shining light like the sun.
Awn.
"Hey! This is..." Canglan's eyes changed, and he suddenly soared into the sky. With a flash of light, his figure disappeared.
At this time, seeing a group of people coming towards this side not far away, Shi Yan quickly pulled Ye Yier to hide aside. Shi Yan and Ye Yier had the magic weapon given by Cang Lan to shield their breath, so the group did not find them.
But not long after, another group of people passed by.
"So many people have gone out to look for me, but there are still so many guards left here. Is there really something hidden here?" Shi Yan thought silently.
After the group of people left, Shi Yan did not get up and leave immediately, but waited for a moment. When he was sure that no one would pass by, he exerted force with his legs and rushed up like a gust of wind while holding Ye Yier. He hid his body and headed towards the floating
The small temple in the air flew away quickly.
As we travel along the way, the sky is clear, the mountains and rivers are magnificent, and the breeze blows gently, bringing with it fresh water vapor that cleanses our hearts.
After dodging several waves of troops, Shi Yan finally arrived at the floating temple. Between each floating temple, there was a thick chain formed by talismans. "Strange, why do I feel that this doesn't look like it's hiding something, but rather like...
It's blocking something." Shi Yan frowned, looking at the chains formed by countless talismans, and said in surprise.
Ye Yier also looked up with curiosity. Suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something and pointed at the sky and shouted in surprise: "Look up, I see a dragon!"
"Dragon?" Shi Yan was startled and quickly looked up in the direction Ye Yier pointed, but all he saw was a yellow light rising into the sky, without any trace of a dragon!
"I really saw it. A dragon really flew out from the glowing pillar, but the dragon seemed to be trapped by something and couldn't break free." Seeing that Shi Yan didn't believe it, Ye Yier said again to confirm.
Seeing her so serious, Shi Yan looked carefully again. It was indeed as Ye Yier said. There was a pillar there with a circling golden dragon engraved on it, and the golden light was emitted from the golden dragon. He laughed secretly. Ye Yier must have taken the golden light from the dragon.
The golden light was mistaken for a dragon.
Shi Yan continued to move forward. Strangely enough, he discovered that the further up he went, the fewer people were patrolling, until in the end there was no one at all.
Suddenly, a blue light flashed, and Shi Yan's body was shaken, and he found himself on Cang Lan's back. Cang Lan turned his head and scolded him with a frown: "Do you two want to die? You came here to watch the fun!"
But at this time, Shi Yan did not listen to his words, because he was stunned by the scene before him.
On the high platform in front, five bronze beasts stood in five directions, baring their teeth and claws, looking arrogant and handsome, with eyes as big as copper bells and piercing spirits. From their bloody mouths came an iron chain made of black jade and black iron, with a broken stone entangled at the other end.
The stone looked like something that had fallen off a huge pillar, one side was rounded and the other side was rough. On top of the fragment, a golden dragon was vivid and alive, and with the golden light that was constantly emitting, it really looked like a real dragon dancing.
There was a stone pit under the fragment, as if it had been smashed out by force.
"Crack it!"
The fragment suddenly trembled, the iron chain was immediately pulled tight, and the stone pit in the center immediately emitted a circle of yellow light, which spread rapidly in all directions.
Runes appeared one after another on the outside of the rubble. These cracks were bright dark blue, flashing with strange light, and crisscrossed like beautiful patterns, full of mystery.
“Ouch!”
With a loud dragon roar, runes intertwined to form a golden dragon, trying to climb up to the sky.
“Dragon!” Shi Yan covered his mouth and exclaimed in disbelief. It turned out that Ye Yier was right. There really is a dragon!!!
