When the first ray of morning light fell on the grassland, Wenbu quietly sent Tang Ling out of the village.
Looking at Tang Ling's back, Wenbu sighed. He just hoped that his decision to bet on the fate of the village was right.
Baltu, on the other hand, looked at Wenbu's back and Tang Ling's leaving figure, with a sneer on his lips.
As he rode the iron-scaled horse and galloped onto the early morning grassland, Tang Ling felt a little worried.
In fact, he didn't want to waste time, let alone get involved in the disputes in the villages on this grassland.
According to his plan, he will leave here today and continue moving forward. After all, he must reach the Dark Port before December.
Even if he was grateful for Valencia's helping hand and moved by Wenbu's honest enthusiasm, according to his idea, the most he could do was to take the family away from this place of dispute.
However, the shadow of the Star Council was everywhere, still holding Tang Ling back.
He couldn't ignore this behemoth.
It was the one who destroyed the dragon army.
Tang Feng's death is also inseparable from the Star Council. In fact, Tang Ling didn't care about Tang Feng at all.
But what happened to Uncle Su Xiao later. His meridians were all severed and he could no longer practice. He could only rely on the time-travel potion to regain his combat effectiveness. This incident was also related to the Star Council.
Because this matter was mentioned in Uncle Su Xiao's notes, although it was not detailed.
As for Tang Ling himself, his greatest danger now comes from the Star Council.
As expected, the main initiator of the wanted order was a member of the Star Council.
But the Star Council is very mysterious. No one knows why they rose up, how many cards they have, and how powerful they are.
Their ambitions are also very strange. They seem to be exploring, well, exploring the planet.
They don't seem to be dangerous because they basically don't participate in the struggle for hegemony. In the many years since the Ziyue era, they have only targeted the Dragon Army and started a battle with the Dragon Army that shocked the world.
But the reason? Except for the senior officials of both parties, no one knew about it, not even Tang Ling. Su Xiao's notes said that Tang Ling was qualified to know about this matter after he met Ling.
Well, no matter what, the Star Council has become a lingering shadow in Tang Ling's life, an enemy he will face sooner or later.
The death of my mother-in-law and sister is inseparable from them.
Therefore, Tang Ling wanted to find out their plot very much! Perhaps this temple on the plain is a breakthrough point.
The journey was not that far. After starting in the early morning and riding the iron-scaled horse, Tang Ling arrived at the edge of the Lake of Tears in less than half an hour.
The lake water here is very strange. Even if the morning wind is so strong, the lake surface does not fluctuate at all.
Just occasionally looking at it carefully, you can see several huge shadows under the lake, which makes people feel a little creepy.
After dismounting, Tang Ling drove away the iron-scaled horse. According to Wenbu, it would return to Barbato Village on its own.
Right here, on the side of the canyon opposite the Hu of Tears of Gods, as long as you go up 100 meters, you will find an inconspicuous cave.
Tang Ling took a deep breath and climbed towards the top of the canyon. This was not difficult. The Six Grassland Villages held sacrifices here every year, and they had already trodden a path that was not a road.
The cave is not difficult to find, because there is only one cave here, and the entrance is not big. After entering, you will find that it is an ordinary dead hole that you can see to the bottom at a glance.
No wonder, the six villages don't care at all about others finding their sacrificial places. What can be seen from this exposed cave
Tang Ling's curiosity was slightly aroused. He walked towards the depths of the cave. When he reached the end, he took out a black and red pellet and lit it.
Yes, this is the Holy Blood Pill that Valencia talks about. Every direct descendant of the family will keep three pills. If they are no longer available, they will use secret methods to concoct them again.
Wenbu happened to be the direct descendant of Barbato Village, so he was able to provide Tang Ling with a holy blood pill.
I heard that most of the people from the Council of Stars had also obtained Holy Blood Pills and entered the temple in most of Housewadidi.
But in response, Wenbu just smiled contemptuously and said something that puzzled Tang Ling, "If you are not the right person, it doesn't matter even if you enter the temple." '
What about yourself? Tang Ling had questions, but Wenbu just shook his head and explained to Tang Ling that the deal between them was just for Wenbu to give Tang Ling a chance to enter the temple.
The Holy Blood Pill burned quietly, emitting a strange smell with the smell of blood.
Tang Ling sat cross-legged and waited, and gradually felt a strange feeling. He felt mysterious energy fluctuations at the bottom of the cave.
But what does it mean that he can only sense it if he runs his precise instincts? Tang Ling closed his eyes and tried to carefully sense the source of the energy fluctuations, but at this moment he heard several almost inaudible strange sounds.
The sounds seemed to be composed of a language, and were accompanied by a slight 'click', like the sound of a lock being opened.
Tang Ling couldn't understand this strange language at all, but he somehow seemed to understand one of its meanings - fit
Of course, Tang Ling didn't really think that it meant "fit". He didn't believe the unfounded speculation. At this time, he was just shocked. Why did a gate appear in front of him
Is it the same principle as the 3D holographic projection of Barrier of Hope
Tang Ling put his hand on the door. The touch of the stone-polished door was so real. It was just as real as when he touched the earthen wall where the door was originally located.
This is far beyond the technological scope of 3D holographic projection, because this illusion can also directly deceive human touch.
What a mysterious and advanced technology! But why are the totems painted on this gate full of primitive feelings
Tang Ling just glanced at it and felt like the totems depicted by prehistoric humans in some books that recorded human history.
But compared to those patterns that have been eclipsed by time, the patterns on this door still retain a fresh dark red color, and the simple drawings are lifelike, depicting various strange animals and abstract humans.
These animals seemed familiar to Tang Ling, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before.
Thinking about it, Tang Ling pushed open the stone door in front of him with a little force and entered behind the stone door.
According to Wenbu, the place where they offered sacrifices to the temple was in the cave behind the stone gate. Whatever Tang Ling could find was Tang Ling's own business.
What a strange statement. With this thought in mind, Tang Ling stepped into the stone gate.
As soon as you enter, the stone door automatically closes, blocking all light.
Tang Ling was not panicked by this. Wenbu had said that if he wanted to come out, he could just put his hand on the stone door.
After lighting the prepared torch, Tang Ling saw a downward earth staircase that could only accommodate one person.
After coming down, there is a cave that looks a bit huge, but!
Tang Ling looked at what he saw in front of him with some disbelief. This was an empty cave. Compared with the cave outside, there was no difference except that it was larger.
What about the temple? Where are the piles of silver eggs that Wenbu said? All gone? Were they taken away by people from the Star Council
No, absolutely not! If the Star Council achieved their goal, why bother trying so hard to control this village.
This can only show the fact that those who are not the so-called direct descendants of the village may not be able to see the so-called temple at all, let alone touch anything.
No wonder Wenbu smiled scornfully at the Star Council's move to enter the temple. No wonder Wenbu also had a rather strange statement about his own entry into the temple.
Is there no other way
Tang Ling was not willing to leave just now, because the stone door had already revealed that there was a secret here!
But what is the solution? Tang Ling thought calmly for two seconds, then closed his eyes and began to quickly use his precise instincts.
On a certain level, precision instinct is a pair of 'eyes', eyes that can discover the essence and see through the essence better than real eyes.
With his precise instincts running, Tang Ling finally felt different energy fluctuations coming from all directions.
Then, in his mind, abstract pictures began to form, but they were still a little blurry.
What if you open your eyes at this time? Tang Ling felt that precise instinct also required both eyes to capture some images.
Because Tang Ling felt that the precision instinct had been responsible for breaking a layer of shackles for Tang Ling, which came from the shackles of the brain! After all, humans can see things with their eyes to capture images. The specific image formation comes from the analysis of the brain.
So, at this moment, when Tang Ling opened his eyes, everything in front of him changed.
He first saw many eggs, eggs that were exactly the same as the silver egg he had stolen from the Purple Crow's Nest in Udi.
These eggs were piled up in a mess, there were at least hundreds of them, and each one exuded faint energy fluctuations.
Behind the pile of eggs was a huge shelf with six shapeless metal objects that looked like a pile of mud.
These metal objects emitted a faint fluorescence and had an inexplicable attraction. Tang Ling couldn't help but step forward, wanting to pick up a piece and study it carefully.
But, the first piece, no, I can’t lift it! This piece is the most tempting one! Tang Ling felt faintly disappointed.
What about the second piece? What about the third piece? Tang Ling tried them one by one, but couldn't lift them all, as if a huge force had bound these shapeless metals.
Tang Ling was very unwilling and focused on the last piece.
This piece is very small, only half the size of Tang Ling's fist. Compared with the other five colorful pieces, this piece is very inconspicuous. It is black and does not emit as much fluorescence as the other five pieces.
It has to be said that, well, it's a bit like a piece of coal.
The big one can't be lifted, but this small one can always be moved, right? Tang Ling gritted his teeth and almost used all his strength to move suddenly!
Still standing tall and motionless! It was the excessive force and the sharp edges of the black object that cut Tang Ling's skin, causing blood to flow on it.
"What?" Tang Ling complained, casually wiping the blood on his body, and then he saw a strange scene.
The black object squirmed.
Yes, it squirmed like an animal, and then Tang Ling's blood was quickly absorbed as if it was sprinkled on a sponge.
What happened? Vampire stone
Tang Ling, who had tried everything, couldn't help but reached out and grabbed the black stone again. The moment he grabbed it, Tang Ling couldn't help but laugh.
Because, he felt that the invisible binding force disappeared, and the black stone was suddenly grasped in his hand.
However, Tang Ling didn't expect that the stone would be so heavy, so he grabbed it and without warning, it sank suddenly, causing Tang Ling to fall to the ground.
With this fall, something that Tang Ling had been keeping in his arms that he had never studied thoroughly fell out, and it happened to fall next to this black object.
Then, Tang Ling watched as something very strange and shocking happened before his eyes.
What fell out of his arms was the incomplete dagger from the Angs family warehouse.
Tang Ling took it away because his hands were stained with blood. When he put down the dagger, he found that all the blood on his hands had disappeared.
Is this dagger the legendary blood-sucking dagger? Tang Ling just took it away with this simple idea.
Later, during the journey, Tang Ling discovered that this was not a vampire dagger at all!
Because it wouldn't suck the blood of the beasts Tang Ling killed along the way.
Are you still picky about food? Tang Ling conducted an experiment with his own blood.
He found that after his blood dripped on the dagger, the dagger absorbed it, but the next moment, a black liquid condensed on its fracture and dripped down.
Of course Tang Ling collected this drop of liquid, but after careful inspection, Tang Ling came to a dumbfounding conclusion. This drop of jet-black liquid was still blood, and it seemed to be the blood of many people mixed together.
Of course, without advanced instruments, Tang Ling couldn't be sure of this result just by relying on precise instincts. He just left the piece of cloth that collected the black liquid and planned to verify it again after he got to a certain safe area.
If this is really the case, Tang Ling has some guesses.
But no matter what speculation there is, how can this strange dagger, which is neither sharp nor easy to use, "collude" with the black object that he finally took off
Yes, Tang Ling couldn't find a better adjective. After getting close to the black object, several roots sprouted out of the dagger, and then it was firmly rooted in the black object.
"Damn, this is mine, what are you doing!" Tang Ling's face turned red, he rushed over and grabbed the dagger.
It was firmly connected to the black object, and no matter how Tang Ling shook it, it remained motionless.
Tang Ling punched it with hatred, and the black object that looked very hard suddenly cracked under Tang Ling's eyes.
It was split into two, with more than half of it firmly occupied by the dagger, rooted inside.
The other half was in Tang Ling's hands.
This gave Tang Ling a strange feeling in his heart, as if the dagger had been unwillingly divided with him - half of it is mine, and half of it is yours!
What's all this about? ! Just when Tang Ling was annoyed, confused, shocked, and feeling doubtful about his life, he heard a strange sound again.
Don’t worry, the plot of Path of Glory will be very interesting, and the first two chapters need some foreshadowing. I would like to make a special note to everyone, please continue to support 33. As soon as the monthly votes started, I dropped to eighth place, but I think I can still be saved.
