Chapter 285: Source of Life



I took it and compared it repeatedly. Basically, the placement and strokes of each character were the same, and the door was also written vertically. However, it was the first time I saw the characters on the sword blade appear in other places. Although I couldn't understand these characters, they were still somewhat similar to the characters we often see, but they were distorted a lot. Moreover, each character had a lot of strokes, but they didn't match. Each of these characters had several similar characters that could correspond to them.

"The Golden Palace is an ancient artifact. It was built around the Shang Dynasty by a mysterious tribe called the Shurong. In the early Shang Dynasty, there was a federal system formed by many tribes. There were ten tribes at that time, which are what we call the ten heavenly stems, namely Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui. Each tribe has its own expertise. For example, Jia is good at making shields, Yi is good at ropes, and Wu is weapons. The system at that time was that the tribes formed tribes in pairs, and then formed five major countries with dual political powers, which took turns to be in charge, so it was called a federal system. Some of the mainstream tribes did not leave any traces in history, and only have a few strokes in some wild books, such as the Blood Eye Clan and the Shurong. Therefore, the text above should be the text of the mysterious tribe at that time." Yunwen said.

"No wonder they look a bit similar to our characters, but I can't tell which is which. I just feel that each one is very familiar and yet very strange," I said.

"Yes! Although the text above cannot be parsed, it can be corresponded to what the Kaiyuan insect said. The text on the Jinque Sword can know the location of the source of life. I have read a lot of books before, and the archives of the Milong Camp do mention the source of life, but it is called the Jade Dew Pond. It was calculated by an old alchemist in the Milong Camp who was good at finding dragons and caves and reading Yin plates. The characteristics recorded by him only match this place." Yunwen said.

"Then it seems that the source of life is inside. However, the diamond in Broken Rock is the same as that in Taiqiong Cave. I wonder if they are both mechanisms made by the same person." I said.

"It is very likely that it was opened last time by a spliced ​​key. Do we need to find a key this time as well?" Yunwen said.

We felt around and around, and the stone was cold, as if it would never get warm. We also felt around the surrounding door frames, and found that there wasn't even a keyhole. We couldn't understand how we could get in without a key. Was it designed to keep people out forever?

The water was too hot and couldn't cool down, and the door couldn't be opened. This place was really weird and magical. But if it was far away and out of reach, I wouldn't have to look for it. It wouldn't be necessary. But it was right in front of me, but there was a door between us. Not to mention Yunwen was not convinced, I felt uncomfortable too.

There is no keyhole, only a line of words on the picture, and no other clues to life. At most, there is the warm water that never recedes, and the words that are impossible to understand.

"Isn't it too much to ask someone to open the door without a keyhole? It seems that the Kaiyuan insect is a liar and it never tells the truth." I couldn't help but say in frustration.

"As the saying goes, a dying man speaks kindly. It was very fragile, and its physique was what a bug should have. At that time, it was controlled by us and its life was at stake. It would not be possible for it to tell lies. It must be hoping to survive. So I think what it said about being able to find it and being related to the Golden Palace should be true. We should try again and think of other things." Yunwen said.

Yunwen's words reminded me that it was related to Jinque. I saw the words "Jinque sword" written on the door, and next to it was warm water that never cooled down, and I seemed to associate it with something.

The Golden Que Sword does not reveal the golden words all the time. Only when its spiritual power is fully awakened and its potential is released will it shed its clumsy sword appearance and reveal its golden glow. Only then will the golden words emerge, and emerge completely.

There seems to be some connection between the eternally hot water and the words. I also measured the width of the crack in the stone and they seem to match.

"I understand!" I said.

"I told you that if you think about it carefully there must be other ways. What have you thought of?" Yunwen asked hurriedly.

I walked over, pulled out the Golden Que Sword, and stuck it into the crevice of the stone. The Golden Que Sword was the best converter. Immediately, the special energy in the water was absorbed by the Golden Que Sword. When I touched the water flowing down again, it had turned into water at room temperature. I took a couple of sips and it tasted extremely sweet. I poured out the boiling water from the kettle, added some of the cooled water, and filled it up.

At this time, the Jinque Sword really began to emit golden light. Since it was completely stuck in the crevice of the stone, I couldn't see whether it had begun to reveal golden words. But as I guessed, not long after, the golden words on the stone door that were exactly the same as those on the edge of the Jinque Sword also began to emit a dazzling light rapidly. Then the whole mountain began to shake, and the door made of broken rock diamond began to move slowly upwards.

Yunwen opened her eyes wide and looked extremely surprised.

"How did you think of that? You're awesome! It seems that you are not only an excellent special forces soldier, but also an excellent dragon hunter. Awesome!" Yunwen kept praising me, hugged me tightly, and jumped for joy.

This was also the happiest expression she had shown in these days, and she couldn't stop smiling.

"Let's celebrate happily later. Based on my last experience, the door may not remain open all the time, so let's go in quickly and finish our business and come out, otherwise I'm afraid it will close again." I said.

She nodded.

When we walked in, the style was indeed very similar to that of Taiqiong Cave. There were also murals on both sides of the cave walls. I'm afraid they were painted by the same painter as the one in Taiqiong Cave. Yunwen quickly glanced at it, and I think she probably remembered it. I was afraid that time was too urgent, so I just glanced a few times. What I saw were many people worshiping the future, a painting of flowing water, and some people in strange clothes. Apart from these, I didn't have time to see or feel anything else.

After passing the area with murals, we entered the cave. We could hear the sound of gurgling water and bubbling, but the cave became darker and darker as we went deeper. Yunwen held my hand tightly, and I held her tightly too, for fear of leaving her behind.

We kept going inside, listening to the sound of running water getting closer and closer, until we were inside, and suddenly green glowing ferns lit up all around, and then it became a little brighter. We walked all the way inside and saw a large tripod with an image of a winged male tiger engraved on it. It reminded me of the time when I was hit by the life and death gate of the Lingchi Toad. At that time, a Zhentian tiger roared into the illusion and roared to pieces of the illusion. When I woke up, I found that I was holding the Golden Que Sword in my hand.

It seems that this winged tiger is the totem of the Shurong tribe and the true soul of Jinque.

Yunwen and I walked to the side of the cauldron, but saw that there was only a small pool of water in the cauldron, which was basically empty. The water gave off an extremely fragrant smell, a bit like sandalwood, but better, and there was also an indescribable fragrance mixed in with it. I'm afraid this fragrance can only be smelled in heaven.

I scooped up a drop with my finger and tried it. Immediately, all the wounds on my body that had just been rubbed on the ground began to heal rapidly. I don't know if it was my illusion, but the skin on my hands began to tighten rapidly. I had some calluses on my hands from working so hard, but now they had all disappeared. I even felt that my whole body, from my heart to my internal organs, was full of vitality, and there was a warm feeling in the center of my stomach.

"This is the power of the elixir, right? The source of life, it lives up to its reputation!" I muttered.

Yunwen also imitated me, picked up a drop with her finger, tasted it, and immediately, like me, her whole body changed. She slowly peeled off the cloth wrapped around the right side of her face, revealing no longer the scarred and deformed face, but a fair, translucent face with skin as white as cream, and a few drops of silky water seemed to be faintly visible.

Seeing me staring blankly, she felt a little uneasy and said, "Zhou Bo, can you help me check if there are any changes on my face?"

I swallowed hard, and couldn't help talking. I said, "You've changed. You've changed so much. You look like two different people! No, what word did I use? I meant that you look prettier and more delicate than before!"

Yunwen covered her mouth and smiled, muttering, "Idiot."

Just as we were talking, a white shadow suddenly rushed over!
