Chapter 6 Quickly Transmigrate! Conquer the Handsome Demon King (12)
I carefully observed the rune and suddenly realized that Liang Xu was right.
This rune does look like a key, and it seems to be connected to the other runes in some way.
I suddenly understood! These runes are not simple words, but a special code!
"I know!" I said excitedly, "I know what these runes mean!"
Liang Xu smiled slightly and said nothing.
I immediately began to decipher the runes, and discovered that they told a startling secret, a secret about the higher-ups of the sect...
I was shocked. Once this secret got out, it would cause a huge disturbance.
I looked at Liang Xu. He still had no expression on his face, but there was a barely perceptible glimmer of worry in his eyes.
I took a deep breath and continued to decipher the runes. Suddenly, my fingers touched a depression on the stone wall...
There was a slight click...
The stone wall slowly opened inward, revealing a deep secret compartment.
My heartbeat quickened, and an inexplicable feeling of excitement surged in my heart.
There was an ancient secret book in the secret compartment. There were no words on the cover, only a few complicated patterns, which faintly echoed the runes on the cave wall.
I carefully took out the secret book and opened the first page. A powerful wave of spiritual energy hit my face, causing me to take a step back.
What is recorded in this secret book is not ordinary cultivation methods, but some powerful spells that have been lost for a long time!
I was very happy, this was such a pleasant surprise!
I quickly browsed through the contents of the secret book and memorized the spells.
With these spells, my strength will be greatly enhanced, and I will be able to protect myself better, and even...
Protect Liang Xu.
I closed the secret book, hid it in my arms, then turned and looked at Liang Xu.
He still stood there, his eyes deep, as if he knew everything.
"Let's go." Liang Xu's voice was low and powerful.
We returned along the same route. The air in the cave was still damp and cold, but my mood was completely different.
I felt as if I was holding a key that would open the door to the truth, and this key would lead me to an unknown future.
We avoided the patrolling disciples and returned to my residence quietly.
I took out the secret book and started reading it again.
There are many kinds of spells recorded in the secret book with amazing power, but the one that interests me most is a spell called "Invisibility".
This spell can hide one's own spiritual power fluctuations, making it difficult for others to detect.
I immediately began to practice the "Hidden Art" and guided the circulation of the spiritual energy in my body according to the methods in the secret book.
At first, I felt a little strenuous, but as time went on, I gradually got the hang of it and the spiritual energy in my body became smoother.
Finally, I successfully performed the "Hidden Technique".
The fluctuations of my spiritual power completely disappeared, as if it had merged into the surrounding environment.
I smiled with satisfaction. With this spell, I could move more freely without having to worry about being discovered by the sect's disciples.
I put the secret book away, then walked to the window and looked at the mountains in the distance.
As night falls, the outline of the mountain appears particularly clear in the darkness.
I took a deep breath, my heart filled with anticipation and anxiety.
"Next, let me see how many secrets you have hidden..." I whispered, with a gleam of determination in my eyes.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, breaking the silence of the night.
"Senior Brother Feng Ziang, are you there?" A familiar voice came from outside the door.
It’s senior brother!
How did he find this place?
My heart suddenly sank, and a sense of foreboding came over me...
I walked slowly towards the door, my hand unconsciously clenching the secret book hidden in my sleeve.
I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself calm.
When I opened the door, I saw the senior brother standing outside with a gentle smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.
"Brother, it's so late, what can I do for you?" I tried my best to make my tone sound natural.
He asked with concern, "I heard that you have been practicing in seclusion recently, so I came to see you. Is everything okay?" I nodded, "Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, senior brother." His smile seemed to deepen, "That's good. Go to bed early." After that, he turned and left.
I closed the door, but the uneasiness in my heart became stronger.
The senior brother’s appearance was too sudden, and his eyes made me feel a little strange.
I'm sure he discovered something.
I can't wait any longer and must find more evidence as soon as possible.
Based on the information I got from the secret cave, I began to explore around the sect.
I have secretly been to the Sutra Repository, the Alchemy Room, and even the edge of the forbidden area.
I am like a ghost, moving through the night, not missing any clues.
Over the past few days, I have collected some fragmentary information, all pointing in the same direction - the top leaders of the sect seem to be performing some kind of secret ritual, and this ritual is very likely related to the demon world.
My actions became increasingly covert, but still attracted some people's attention.
I felt that there was always a pair of eyes staring at me from behind, and a cold murderous intent followed me like a shadow.
I knew they were beginning to suspect me.
Tonight, I came to a dense forest at the back of the sect. There was a stone tablet engraved with runes, which was said to be left by the sect's founder.
I hope I can find some clues here.
The night wind blows, and the leaves rustle, like the whisper of a secret.
I was about to reach out and touch the stone tablet when suddenly, several dark shadows descended from the sky and surrounded me.
"Feng Ziang, you are here after all!" The leading man in black spoke with a cold tone and murderous aura.
"Who are you?" I asked calmly, while secretly accumulating spiritual power in preparation for a breakout.
"I'm ordered to take your life!" The man in black stopped talking nonsense and launched an attack directly.
I swung my sword to fight, my spiritual power surged, and my sword energy swept across the sky.
But the other side has more people and is stronger than me.
I gradually felt overwhelmed and my spiritual energy was depleted.
Although I fought hard, I still got injured inevitably.
I knew I couldn't get stuck in this anymore and had to find a way to break out.
I spotted an opening, used the "stealth technique", and instantly disappeared into the night.
The man in black lost his target and searched everywhere.
I endured the pain and hid behind a huge old tree, listening to their footsteps getting closer and closer, and hearing their cold whispers: "He can't run far, chase him!" I covered my chest, blood soaked my clothes, and my vision began to blur...
"Cough cough..." I leaned weakly against the tree trunk, "Liang Xu..." The cold rain slid down my cheeks, mixing with the blood, and it was impossible to tell one from the other.
I stumbled into a hidden valley. Dense branches blocked out the sun, and the valley floor was filled with thick fog, making it pitch dark.
I leaned against a cold rock, the pain so severe that I could hardly breathe.
