Xiang Sheng had long discovered that there was a very complicated ancient formation at the entrance of the cave. She could only see that half of the patterns were consistent with the rules of the restriction, which had the effect of isolating it from detection.
The other half of the pattern had completely different underlying rules and restrictions. She couldn't understand it at all, but she thought it was used to reduce damage to the soul.
After recording this half of the pattern on a jade slip, Xiang Sheng did not linger at the door any longer and turned to walk inside.
After walking a few dozen steps, the light in front of them became brighter, and a corridor appeared that was exactly the same as the entrance of the teleportation array. Even the distance between the spirit stone lamps on the corridor wall was exactly the same.
Xiang Sheng took a quick look at the incision where the corridor met the soil and rocks of the cave, and without stopping, walked straight into the corridor.
She walked along the way quietly, without encountering any traps. As she continued to move in, the corridor became wider.
Until finally, a magnificent underground palace came into view.
The palace gate was wide open, and the inside was as bright as day. Even if Xiang Sheng stood on the stone square outside, he could see the furnishings inside.
She didn't rush in, but glanced at the statues on both sides of the square.
These statues are all half human and half snake, holding magic weapons in their hands and looking up at the sky.
She carefully identified the face of the statue, which was different from the face on the human-faced snake monster.
After identifying all the statues, Xiang Sheng flashed and stepped into the hall.
The copper bell at the temple door seemed to be pulled by a thread, making a slight sound, which was particularly harsh in the dead silence.
When Xiang Sheng heard the bell, he felt the hidden pain in his soul ease a lot.
She looked back at the bronze bell, narrowed her eyes, and walked straight into the hall without going over.
This palace is obviously similar to an ancestral temple. In addition to the spirit stone lamps for lighting, there are also many soul lamps. At a glance, they are densely packed.
Xiang Sheng only saw a few lights still on, and he didn't know if any of them were from the dragon outside.
She didn't pay much attention to it and walked to an altar.
The offerings on the altar had long been lost to time, leaving only a black incense burner, which faintly emitted a strange fragrance, somewhat similar to the taste of the crystals she had obtained.
On the cushion in front of the altar, there is a golden skeleton that is half human and half snake. Judging from the arrangement of its bones, the baby was in a kneeling position when it was alive.
Next to it, there were several broken array plates, the patterns on which were blurred and unrecognizable.
I think this is the half-demon who set up the formation at the entrance of the cave.
Kneeling until death, is he atonement for his sins?
This thought flashed through Xiang Sheng's mind, and he scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense, but found no storage magic weapon.
She sighed slightly, stood up and looked at the many snake-shaped tablets behind the altar.
The ancient characters on the tablet were twisted like snakes and insects, and she couldn't recognize any of them.
"I don't know if Senior Brother recognizes me..."
This thought flashed through her mind, but she did not touch the tablet. Instead, she took out the jade slip and followed the instructions to carve the words, and then came to the entrance of the hall.
As soon as she entered the hall, she saw many murals carved on the walls, but the bones in front of the altar attracted her more.
Now that she hadn't found anything on the bones, her attention returned to the murals.
It is unknown how many years this hall has remained underground, but the formations on the walls are still functioning, the murals are not damaged at all, and the images on them are lifelike.
The first mural is blood-red, divided into heaven and earth, and both the sky and the ground are engraved with dense human and demon figures.
The murals were so realistic that Xiang Sheng could even tell that the battle was extremely brutal and blood flowed like a river.
"The Ancient War..."
She whispered softly, her brows furrowed.
Few people in the world of cultivation knew about the ancient war, and there were only a few words in the Wanmai Sword Sect.
This mural seems to have revealed a corner of the secret.
Xiang Sheng's knowledge has changed a lot. After this observation, he immediately recognized most of the races involved in the war. Some of them have already become extinct and are only recorded in ancient books.
Among them were the Fifth Senior Sister's clan and the mythical beast Bifang. The remaining unknowns all had strange appearances, the half-human, half-snake statue outside the temple being one of them.
However, what Xiang Sheng cared about most was the blood-haired human standing in the clouds above the mural.
These human beings, their skin covered with blood vessels, looked down at the earth with contempt and arrogance in their eyes, as if all the races on earth were not in their eyes.
Xiang Sheng took a deep look at the blood-haired human, memorized it in his mind, and walked to the second mural.
This one is still set in the ancient war, but the situation is very different from the first one.
In the clouds, the arrogant blood-haired human race no longer had the confidence of victory they had at the beginning, but instead stared at the black and white energies that were confronting them with fear on their faces.
Although there are only two of these two black and white energies, they can rival the tens of thousands of blood-haired humans and are on par with them! "I just saw someone tipped me, thank you~ (I'm recovering, I'll try to update daily first orz)"
