"Don't worry, it won't be long."
Lin Tian held the scroll and looked at it carefully. It was indeed the last ancient painting with the word "Palace" in it.
He looked at the palaces and pavilions in the painting, and three other pictures emerged involuntarily in his mind. If they were pieced together, it seemed that they would form a complete map.
Could this be the layout of the temple?
Lin Tian seemed to be lost in thought. He turned the ancient painting over, and the back was blank. There was no secret method of the fourth pole of the Four Poles Controlling the Sky.
This is a bit troublesome.
If Zhao Qiankun was the only one who knew the secret method of the fourth pole, then he really had to revive this Qiankunmen.
He stared at Zhao Qiankun, his eyes gleaming with divine light, as if he could see through everything.
In his eyes, Zhao Qiankun's body slowly became transparent.
He saw countless dense black lines, like spider webs, covering Zhao Qiankun's body, and wriggling strangely, like tiny worms, frantically gnawing at his flesh and blood!
Those black lines should be the dark power from the dark realm.
He could clearly feel that Zhao Qiankun's vitality was being dissolved by the power of darkness. If nothing unexpected happened, death was only a matter of time.
However, Zhao Qiankun is not doomed to die, and still has a glimmer of hope because his heart has not been invaded by the dark power.
It goes without saying that it must be the ancient painting with the word "Palace" that protected Zhao Qiankun's heart.
"How are you going to expel the dark power from his body?"
Lin Tian looked at Long Zhantian.
Long Zhantian said, "Before falling asleep, the Sect Master tried every possible way to resist the invasion of darkness and figured out some tricks. He discovered that when the ancient painting absorbed blood, it could unleash its divine power and counter the forces of darkness. However, an ancient painting can only barely protect the heart meridian."
Lin Tian pondered and said, "Is this ancient painting so magical?"
Long Zhantian's expression became serious. "If the ancient painting is complete, it can rival the existence of the Xuanxiao Divine Sword. It must be a divine weapon. Even if it is broken into four, it still has supreme divine power."
"Artifact?"
Lin Tian's expression changed: "Is it more powerful than the Chaos Dao Weapon?"
"Of course! When a Chaos Dao weapon reaches its ultimate sublime state, it transcends heaven and earth and becomes a divine weapon, powerful enough to destroy heaven and earth!"
"So, the Xuanxiao Sword is also a divine weapon?"
"That's right! The Xuanxiao Divine Sword didn't exist in the world. The four major Taoist sects accidentally discovered the Xuanxiao Temple. In order to enter it, they burned their boats and burned their bridges, smelting four Chaos Dao instruments, spending countless years, and finally forged the Xuanxiao Divine Sword!"
Long Zhantian recounted the origins of the temple: "On the day the divine sword was forged, the four great Daoists joined forces to activate it, tearing space apart and forming a divine bridge between heaven and earth. This bridge pierced through the dark realm and led directly to the temple."
"At this point, the four major Daoist sects hold the key to the temple. The Daoist sect disciples have gained countless opportunities inside, and their overall strength is growing stronger and stronger."
"Originally, entry to the Divine Temple was possible once every 100,000 years, and this continued for a million years. However, the last time the four great Daoist sects summoned the top forces of the Vast Ancient Realm to enter the Divine Temple together, they encountered an unprecedentedly terrifying and powerful enemy. A fierce battle ensued, resulting in countless casualties within the Vast Ancient Realm, and even the Xuanxiao Divine Sword was destroyed..."
Long Zhantian recounted the past events in detail and sighed deeply.
Wu Ming was stunned. After Long Zhantian finished speaking, he couldn't help but say, "No wonder the four great Daoist sects and other top-level forces suddenly withdrew from the world over a hundred thousand years ago. It turns out they encountered a powerful enemy. But why did such a major event happen without any news leaking out? It wasn't until recently that the Xuanxiao Temple was exposed?"
Long Zhantian glanced at Wu Ming and said nothing.
Lin Tian laughed and said, "You don't understand this? You're just a casual cultivator, not in that circle, so you have no right to know. If it weren't for the ancient temple painting that appeared in the world, I'm afraid you would never know about this."
This is heartbreaking!
Wu Ming looked embarrassed and suddenly felt unwell.
Why don’t you stop being a casual cultivator and just join a sect?
With his strength, there should be many sects and forces willing to accept him. They can choose a stronger one from among them, and then they will be able to access the secrets of the upper level in the future.
Wu Ming became interested.
The four major Taoist sects probably won't want him. Qiankun Sect is a good choice, but can Shangguan Yuntian accommodate him?
"So, the Chaos Dao Artifacts of the four major Daoist sects have been melted into the Xuanxiao Divine Sword. Does the Daoist sect still have Chaos Dao Artifacts?"
Lin Tian suddenly asked, Tianxing Sect and Lingxiao Mountain would definitely not let him go, he had to find out the details first.
Long Zhantian said: "In the past, the four major Taoist sects each had a Chaos Dao weapon, but now they should be gone."
"Why don't the four major Taoist sects seize the Qiankun Ding from the Qiankun Sect?"
"Of course they want to rob it, but Dao Sect prides itself on being a prestigious and upright sect. Attacking Qiankun Sect without provocation would damage its reputation. Furthermore, the four Dao Masters are in seclusion, so they dare not rob it for the time being. After all, our sect's most precious treasure, the Qiankun Cauldron, is extremely powerful, and even the four major Dao Sects are wary of it."
"It seems you are very confident. If those four Dao Masters come out of seclusion, will they come to snatch the Qiankun Ding?"
"That's very possible!"
Long Zhantian said seriously, "Before the Xuanxiao Divine Sword, the four Dao Masters focused their attention on exploring the Divine Temple and didn't covet the Chaos Dao Artifacts that much. Now that the Divine Sword is gone, the importance of Chaos Dao Artifacts has been revealed. Not only the Qiankun Cauldron, but also your Taixuan Mirror, and even all the Chaos Dao Artifacts in the entire Cangmang Ancient Realm will come into the sight of the four Dao Masters. They are very likely to collect Chaos Dao Artifacts and forge more divine artifacts."
Lin Tiandao: "So, we now have a common potential enemy?"
Long Zhantian said sternly, "That's right! News has spread that the four will soon be coming out of seclusion. We must plan ahead and make preparations in advance. This is also the reason why I'm working with Fellow Daoist Lin. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. If you can rescue our leader, not only will I give you the ancient painting, but from now on, you will be an ally of the Qiankun Sect forever. If you need anything, I will go through fire and water to help you!"
After saying this, he looked at Lin Tian solemnly and sincerely.
"Then let's give it a try!"
Lin Tian looked normal. He didn't care too much about the allies. The most important thing right now was to wake up Zhao Qiankun and get the secret method of the fourth pole.
He took out three other ancient paintings, held them before him, and said slowly, "As long as we inject blood into them, we can unleash the power of the ancient paintings, right?"
Buzz——
As soon as he finished speaking, strange images suddenly appeared in the four ancient paintings. Countless rays of light shot out, pulling at each other, as if they were about to be pieced together, but something was missing, and they kept spinning and vibrating.
Long Zhantian stared at them for a while, then suddenly said excitedly, "These four ancient paintings show signs of merging into one. If they can truly be restored to their original state, it would be like a divine artifact returning to the world. Expelling the power of darkness would be a piece of cake!"
Artifact!
Lin Tian couldn't help but feel his heart beating fast, but he could feel that combining the four images into one was not that simple, and there was still a key link missing.
The fourth level of the secret method of controlling the sky?
Lin Tian hurriedly recited the incantation silently and made hand seals with his hands at a speed so fast that it left countless afterimages.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three streams of light shot out from Lin Tian's fingers one after another and instantly disappeared into the three ancient paintings.
