Chapter 418: Soul-Guiding Altar
At the fork of the tunnel shrouded in gray fog, strong winds roared past. In the dark fog, an old man in white flashed like lightning and flew out quickly.
The old man was originally a crane-bone fairy, untainted by fine dust, but now his figure is in a mess and his aura is also very weak, showing signs of excessive consumption of real energy.
As soon as he emerged, he suddenly waved his hand and held out a sharp-horned treasure. After a flash of light, a middle-aged man in green robe was revealed in his original form.
"Tell me, do you have a way to track the scent of the Frost Flower?"
As soon as Feng Qingzi called out the green-robed middle-aged man, he immediately activated the God Locking Curse with an angry look on his face and tortured the green-robed middle-aged man severely.
"Hehe, hehehe... Fellow Taoist, in order to survive for himself, he and his junior fellow disciples are willing to sacrifice themselves. I admire you for your ruthlessness."
The middle-aged man in green robe endured the severe pain and grinned at Feng Qingzi.
"Too much nonsense!"
Feng Qingzi's face was full of anger, and the spell was activated like a sudden storm. The middle-aged man in green robe immediately twitched in pain and howled: "If you don't want to tell me, I have plenty of time to slowly concoct you."
"Fellow Taoist has lived for hundreds of years, and is only one step away from forming a pill. Unexpectedly, he is so naive. Do you think that after others take away the Ming Shuang Flower, it will still show up in front of you? Besides, the Ming Shuang Flower is a flower of the underworld. There is no trace, once it is taken away, it will never be traced again.”
The middle-aged man in green robe said feebly, as if he had resigned himself to his fate.
"Didn't you say that you have been studying this flower before entering the spiritual world? Why don't you tell me the truth!" Feng Qingzi said coldly.
Whether he got Mingshuanghua or not was not important to Feng Qingzi now, but he was not willing to make wedding clothes for others in vain, and even lost three of his classmates. He couldn't swallow this feeling no matter what.
The middle-aged man in green robe had sworn to him before he captured him. In addition to practicing, he had been looking for the Ming Shuang Flower all his life. No one in the world knew the secrets of this flower better than him. He did not believe that the other party could not track the Ming Shuang Flower. breath.
The middle-aged man in green robe sighed and said, "Everything I say is true. If my fellow Taoist doesn't believe it, there is nothing we can do about it."
"In that case, what's the point of keeping you?"
The corners of Feng Qingzi's eyes twitched, and she said a gloomy voice. Suddenly, a spiritual light flashed on her palm and penetrated into the body of the green-robed middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man in green robes shrank his pupils, showing a look of extreme horror, but before he could scream, his body quickly shriveled up, leaving only a ball of soul floating in front of Feng Qingzi.
The latter showed no mercy to this. After a touch of divine consciousness, the soul was expelled from consciousness and turned into pure spirituality and integrated into the sharp-edged magic weapon.
"Hmph! Do you think that since you can't trace the scent of the Dark Frost Flower, you won't be able to find the person who picked the medicine? The monks who entered the ancient tomb this time were just going to the main tomb chamber to find the Ice Spirit Fruit. Judging from the signs of damage, the man must not be far away, and I can capture him as long as I speed up the chase."
Withdrawing the magic weapon, Feng Qingzi showed a ferocious smile, then took a few pills and flew away into the distance.
…
There is no daylight in the tomb, and the time cannot be measured. However, for more than a month, people have been arriving at this ancient tomb and entering the tomb one after another.
After entering the tomb, some people chose the passage that had been cracked to enter directly for the sake of safety. Others, out of curiosity, chose the passage that no one had ever walked before. Day after day, All the forbidden laws on the sixteen passages have been broken, but the people who entered have never come out again.
As time went by, the number of people meeting in the passage that Ye Chunyang had cracked earlier also increased. From the stone hall of the Yin Yang Bagua Array to the bank of the Yellow River, there were figures flying in the escape light one after another, making the underground world gradually become lively. .
After some attentive people discovered the strange behavior of the Styx River, they vaguely guessed something, so they all followed the direction of the river's flow.
Of course, Ye Chunyang didn't know anything about this. At this time, the three of them were standing in a dark space, looking at an altar in front of them, with expressions of surprise on their faces.
Behind him was the stone door at the end of the Styx River, which he and Lu Xiaodie had already opened together, but after walking through the door, there was nothing else but the altar.
Different from the burning altar that I saw in the underground ancient city before, the former has a strong sealing atmosphere, and this altar is full of stone pillars, arranged according to the Qimen Dunjia, drawing the surrounding spiritual energy, and the two are retracted and released, completely different on the contrary.
It is worth mentioning that the aura of the space here is several times that of the outside world.
As soon as the three people entered this place, they couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the altar with doubts.
Lu Xiaodie circled around the altar and kept examining it, sometimes confused and sometimes surprised, her expression changing as she thought about something.
Ye Chunyang stood there with half-closed eyes, secretly communicating with Guang Lingzi. There was a sinister demon spirit sealed under the altar in the underground ancient city. There was no guarantee that there wouldn't be any demons here.
Meiren Xue, on the other hand, stood quietly aside, using her spiritual consciousness from a distance to carefully perceive, and did not approach hastily to avoid some unforeseen consequences.
At this time, Guang Lingzi said: "Don't worry, kid. This altar is not a sealing formation. On the contrary, it is a spirit-guiding altar. Moreover, this altar is built on spiritual veins, but it is a rare place for cultivation."
"Altar for guiding spirits? Senior, can you tell me in detail?" Although he had seen some clues, Ye Chunyang still couldn't help but ask.
"Such altars were common in ancient times and were used to attract spiritual energy. However, the arrangement method is more complicated than ordinary magic circles, and the materials consumed are also staggering. Therefore, unless the conditions are sufficient, most people will not easily build them."
Guang Lingzi explained patiently: "Speaking of it, the owner of this tomb has some tricks. He actually found such spiritual veins to decorate the spirit-guiding altar. Once this altar is activated, it can absorb ten times the spiritual energy from the spiritual veins. Boy, if you don’t feel troublesome, you can practice here for a while, or sacrifice treasures here, and you’ll get twice the result with half the effort.”
Ye Chunyang couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. At first, he heard Lu Xiaodie say that there was a spiritual vein in the tomb, and he had planned to use it to refine treasures, but now it seemed a bit useless.
This altar is extremely complicated, and it takes an unknown amount of materials to activate it. Resources are the most precious thing in this spiritual world, and it is obviously not worth it to spend a lot of money just to refine treasures here. Moreover, there are more and more monks entering the tomb, and there is no guarantee that no one will find this place. By then, he does not think that he will be able to retreat here safely.
Seeing that Ye Chunyang seemed to have other plans, Guang Lingzi smiled and said no more, and fell silent in the spiritual tree.
After pondering, he walked up to the altar and took a look. His spiritual consciousness scanned the surroundings, trying to find clues to the Ice Spirit Fruit Tree. However, after probing for a while, he couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
His purpose of coming here was to find the Ice Spirit Fruit Tree, but now it seems that there is no clue at all, and he can't help but doubt the authenticity of the information left by the old man riding the dragon.
"Hehe, my guess is indeed correct. With the abundance of spiritual energy in this place, the ancient spiritual veins are here. This spirit-guiding altar is used by the owner of the tomb to attract spiritual energy for practice."
Lu Xiaodie investigated for a while, with a happy smile on her face.
Before she finished speaking, under the surprised gazes of the two of them, she patted the Qiankun bag with her little hand, and densely packed high-quality spiritual stones fell down like a curtain of rain, and were embedded in the slots of the spirit-guiding altar.
A surprising scene appeared.
After hearing a rumbling sound, the stone pillars on the altar suddenly trembled, and then spewed out violent rays of light. The surrounding spiritual energy was suddenly sucked in like a shocking tide, and gathered into a spiritual spring in the altar.
In just a short moment, the spiritual energy was actually several times stronger than before.
Ye Chunyang raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling secretly surprised. He didn't expect that this woman had a rich collection, and she didn't feel bad at all for spending so many resources at once.
Although he was surprised in his heart, he remained calm and did not speak.
Lu Xiaodie chuckled and said, "Little girl, I want to practice here for a few days. I wonder what Brother Ye has planned next?"
Ye Chunyang thought for a while and said: "This place is the main tomb chamber of the entire tomb. There is also an ancient spiritual vein. Although the spiritual energy is not as good as that of fellow Taoists who use the spirit-guiding altar, it is much richer than the outside world. I also plan to restore it here. Ichiban.”
At present, Lu Xiaodie has activated the spirit-guiding altar, and the surrounding spiritual energy has also increased. It would be a pity not to take advantage of such favorable conditions.
"In this case, you two please do what you want. The little lady has taken the first step. If Brother Ye stays here for a few more days, there may be other gains." Lu Xiaodie covered her mouth and giggled, with a flash in her eyes. A bit mysterious, after one word, he said no more, flew towards the altar, and disappeared in the rich spiritual spring.
I don’t know what kind of spell she cast. Once she entered the altar, she disappeared completely. No breath came out. Even Ye Chunyang’s consciousness could not detect her traces.
After looking at her for a few times, Ye Chunyang felt a little surprised. He secretly speculated on the intention of the second half of the other person's sentence, and felt more and more that this woman seemed to have many unknown secrets.
However, he was not surprised by this. Everyone has their own secrets, which are not easily known to outsiders.
"Brother Ye, there seems to be no clue about the Ice Spirit Fruit Tree here. What are your plans next?" Meiren Xue looked at the spiritual spring on the altar and asked hesitantly.
Ye Chunyang's eyes flickered, and after a while he said: "According to the information you and I have obtained, the Ice Spirit Fruit Tree has always appeared in places where spiritual energy gathers. Now looking at the entire tomb, only this place has the strongest spiritual energy. The Ice Spirit Fruit Tree does not appear now, and it does not appear at all." It doesn’t mean it won’t happen in the future, we might as well talk about it in a few days.”
"Brother Ye's words make sense." Xue Meiren nodded with deep agreement, looked at the altar again, and said: "Furthermore, Senior Lu has activated the spirit-guiding altar, and the spiritual energy here is more abundant. Maybe the Ice Spirit Fruit Tree will be attracted by this. Come here, we can wait and see once and for all.”
"I hope so." Ye Chunyang shrugged and said with a wry smile. He couldn't guarantee anything about this matter.
But now it seems that Lu Xiaodie has opened the spirit-guiding altar, and he can use it to practice in the next few days.
