Chapter 87: Secret Passage at Fenbao Rock



In the ancient times, when the leaks in the sky had not been repaired, the sinkholes in the earth had not been filled, and demons were rampant, thunder magic would become a favorite skill of human cultivators, not only because its lethality was strong enough, but also because of its strong targeted restraint effect.

Jade Pivot Thunder, Divine Sky Thunder, and Big Hole Thunder were respectively used to target ghosts, monsters, and demons, and thus became one of the most popular Taoist methods at the time. Even old Taoist priests in remote areas would learn a palm thunder move for self-defense, which shows the importance of this shoe.

Qiu Changtian used the bright fire as cover to launch a large hole mine, and the first shot achieved remarkable results, killing at least five or six demons.

The demons first scattered as if frightened, and then gathered in a group in the distance, like large patches of black fog, circling around the two people cautiously, with an expression as if they wanted to bite but were afraid of hurting their teeth.

"Why is there a demon here?" Qiu Changtian pondered.

"The sky is broken, so the demons must go down to the lower world." Xu Yinglian said calmly, "The Kunlun Mountains are high and closer to the sky. Is it strange that there are demons there?"

"It's still not right." Qiu Changtian shook his head and said, "When we penetrated the clouds and came to a position close to the sky, weren't there many cultivators fighting each other there?"

"The battlefield is chaotic and closer to the sky, which should be a place where demons prefer to appear...but we haven't seen any demons there."

"Brother, what you mean is..." Xu Yinglian said slowly, "Is there something in Kunlun that attracts the demons to gather together?"

"I can't say for sure." Qiu Changtian said cautiously, "Let's investigate first."

In fact, reality may not be logical, but creative art may not be.

If this were the real world, then the gathering of a bunch of demons might just be because they happened to be passing by.

But since this place is a simulation of the Qibao Xuanyuan Secret Realm, if the purpose is just to use the demons to increase the test, then the sky should be full of demons - rather than just limited to Kunlun.

Qiu Changtian still remembered that what the old man was talking about was a test of "good fortune and luck".

Since it is a test of luck, you have to wander around a lot. After all, even if you are lucky enough to pick up money on the road, you will not be able to pick up money if you stay at home all day.

The two of them circled the Kunlun Pillar for a long time but did not find anything noteworthy.

Qiu Changtian then flew towards the direction where the demon came from, thinking silently in his heart.

If you look in this direction from Kunlun Pillar, Fenbao Rock should be nearby.

I remember that Fenbaoyan was not built by Kunlun Taiqing Sect, but a relic from an even older time, right?

Arriving at Fenbao Rock, Xu Yinglian raised his eyebrows and said:

"This is the Treasure Dividing Rock from ancient times. There must be no treasures in it."

"Just taking a look." Qiu Changtian replied.

The two came to the bottom of Fenbao Rock, and Qiu Changtian used the Taoist techniques to try to open the door.

The rock wall ahead did not respond.

This was also within Xu Yinglian's expectations. After all, the secret formula for opening the door was most likely created later by the Kunlun Taiqing Sect, and of course it could not be used in the Qibao Xuanyuan secret realm.

Qiu Changtian pondered for a moment and said:

"Break through the wall and get in."

Xu Yinglian also began to perform Taoist magic, and the Red Feather Nine Phoenix Fire shot out, quickly breaking through the rock layer and revealing the cave inside.

If it were the Fenbao Rock in the real world, forcibly breaking the barrier would certainly trigger the defense mechanism set up by Kunlun.

But there is no Kunlun Taiqing Sect here, so there is no defensive formation that can be triggered.

After the smoke and dust cleared, the two entered the cave entrance. Inside was the cave furnishings of Fenbao Rock, which were almost the same as the real thing, but without many artificially polished stone tables and chairs. It was just empty and a little desolate.

"This place is just like the prison in the Discipline Hall. They are all relics left by the human race in ancient times." Qiu Changtian said as he walked. "At that time, there was not even ancient Kunlun. I guess the builder must have been some ancient great being who lived here."

"Hmm." Xu Yinglian looked around. "So in this era, there are actually people living here?"

"What do you think?"

"It doesn't look like that." Xu Yinglian thought, "Otherwise why are there no tables and chairs?"

"Maybe that great man is simple and frugal and is too lazy to make furniture?" Qiu Changtian guessed.

"Then we shouldn't dig so many caves." Xu Yinglian strode forward.

The two entered the inner room from outside. The Kunlun elders who were originally guarding Fenbao Rock usually stayed in this inner room, responsible for receiving guests or intercepting intruders.

But at this time this was not Kunlun's Treasure Dividing Rock, and naturally there were no elders in the inner room, so the two of them swaggered through the inner room and came to the warehouse where the treasures were stored.

The warehouse is a huge cave, which originally had many stone shelves on which various treasures were stored in different categories. There are naturally countless formations and mechanisms around it. If one accidentally touches one or two of them, one will be destroyed both physically and spiritually.

However, at this time in the cave, many stone shelves were still standing, but many jade slips were placed on them.

Xu Yinglian took down a jade slip, probed his consciousness into it, and said in astonishment:

"It's blank. There's nothing recorded in it."

"It's not that there are no records, but the Qibao Xuanyuan Secret Realm did not add any content to it." Qiu Changtian pondered and said, "In the real world, the founders of Ancient Kunlun must have taken all these jade slips away."

"Why are there so many jade slips here?" Xu Yinglian pondered, "Who built this place in ancient times?"

She was pondering this question that was destined to have no answer, when she suddenly heard Qiu Changtian say:

"Junior sister."

"What's wrong?"

"There seems to be a secret door in the wall ahead."

Qiu Changtian made his judgment directly. Of course, it was not based on any unreliable guess, but he did scan the existence of a secret door there.

Without thinking, Xu Yinglian made a Taoist gesture with his hands and quickly spit out the Red Feather Nine Phoenix Fire. The golden thread cut the wall in front, revealing a dark hole at the back.

"Why is there another secret door?" Xu Yinglian asked in surprise, "There is a secret door outside, and there is another secret door here. How suspicious must the builder be to have arranged so many ways to cover it up?"

"Let's go in and take a look." Qiu Changtian took the lead and stepped into the cave.

The two walked through the long corridor, and finally saw a faint light in front of them, which then gradually expanded.

At the end of the corridor is the top of a mountain.

Is this... the secret realm of Tianmen Palace?

Qiu Changtian looked back in shock and saw that there was only a small and simple land temple where the Tianmen Temple was originally built.

Enshrined in the ancestral hall is the ancient statue of Taiqing Tianzun - in the past, when Qiu Changtian had not yet formed the elixir, he attained enlightenment in front of this ancient statue and acquired the cultivation level of Huafu after seventy years.

"It turns out that there is an entrance to the secret realm of Tianmen Palace in the inner cave of Fenbao Rock." Xu Yinglian exclaimed in amazement.

She had also attained enlightenment in front of the ancient statue of Taiqing Tianzun, so she naturally recognized where this place was. She flew her sword towards the original entrance to the secret realm of Tianmen Palace in her memory, intending to explore it thoroughly.

Qiu Changtian stood there in shock, thinking to himself:

Does Kunlun Taiqing Sect know about the secret door in Fenbao Rock leading to Tianmen Palace?

If I don't know... can I sneak into the secret realm of Tianmen Palace from Fenbao Rock and quietly steal the fragments of the Bu Tian Stone without triggering the mechanism of the secret realm entrance?
