The huge suction pulled Qiao Xuan down, he gritted his teeth and took out the flying sword, trying to fly out from here, but there seemed to be turbulent currents in the depths of the ground, and his mana could not be sustained at all, and the flying sword was swept away Control, he is like a small boat in the waves, he can only be pulled by the vortex involuntarily...
After landing and drifting for a long time, Qiao Xuan finally felt that the gravitational force gradually became smaller. He held his breath, and finally saw a piece of land, which landed gently on the ground.
What kind of place is this
It was pitch black all around, and the visual range was no more than 100 meters. There was a dark rocky ground under the feet, and there was a complete silence, which made people panic for no reason.
Qiao Xuan tried it, and his magic power was obviously restricted here, as if there was an invisible force suppressing everything. Qiao Xuan quickly took out the communication talisman and tried to contact Master, but there was no response after the communication talisman burned...
Qiao Xuan felt a little uneasy. He forced himself to calm down. There was darkness in front, back, left, and right, and there was no way. Even if he walked, he didn't know which way to go...
Just when he was hesitating, a bright light suddenly flashed in the darkness. The light was very weak and seemed far away, like a white flame... flickering and then dark.
Qiao Xuan's eyes were fixed, and when he was about to look carefully, he couldn't see anything.
But vaguely, he felt that the flame seemed to be guiding him...
Qiao Xuan took a deep breath, collected his mind, and walked in that direction. Anyway, there is no way now, so it is better to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
After walking for about an hour or so, the ground under my feet finally changed. It was no longer a gray and dark rocky ground, but was paved with bluestone bricks with engraved patterns. thick dust...
The front view is finally clearer, and you can see a distance of nearly a kilometer...
Qiao Xuan raised his head, his eyes widened in shock, a magnificent building appeared in front of him, he couldn't see the end at a glance, and more parts were still hidden in the darkness...
If the tip of the iceberg exposed by the ancient giant beast.
Although it is only a corner of the decadent area, but just like this, it seems that the former grand scene can be vaguely seen.
Qiao Xuan finally realized that he might have fallen into an ancient ruin by accident.
Although he is not a hard-working person, he is still a person who has been in the world of cultivating immortals. When he was in Dong Chongzhou, he heard that there would be relics left by powerful people in the mortal world, some of which were left by ascended immortals. Some are left by high-strength monks. Generally speaking, there are some treasures and resources. For immortals, it is a place where danger and opportunity coexist...
There are many relics, all over the Three Realms.
But—he had never heard of a relic of this level.
Hualan's Cloud Sea Heavenly Palace and Bai Cang's magnificent Demon Palace all looked a bit dull in front of this relic, like a fish's eye and a bright pearl.
But this is really unreasonable, Nanyue country is just a country of mortals! Since ancient times, the lack of aura and limited resources are not suitable for monks to cultivate, so the way of immortality is not prevalent here. Jiang Weiqing also went to Dongchongzhou before he successfully cultivated into immortality.
It stands to reason that there should be no immortal relics here.
However, it is unbelievable that there is such an ancient relic underground in the imperial mausoleum of Nanyue Kingdom.
Surprised and curious, Qiao Xuan took a deep breath and walked up the steps.
There are mottled marks on the huge stone door, and a corner has been damaged. Qiao Xuan walked in through the crack of the door easily. Maybe it has been too long, and there is nothing hindering him. He walked across the dusty ground, Came to a huge hall.
This seems to be a lecture hall, but there are no people there, it's empty... I don't know what happened in the first place, so that all this was annihilated in the long river of time.
Qiao Xuan took a step forward.
Suddenly, countless voices appeared in his ears, and there were many figures in front of him. His body suddenly tensed up, and goose bumps all over his body. He thought that a trap had been triggered!
But to his surprise, those figures directly penetrated his body, as if he didn't exist at all.
Qiao Xuan loosened his clenched fingers little by little, let out a breath, and looked at everything in front of him with a frown.
Not a trap, just an illusion.
It is the last memory left in this ruin.
People coming and going filled the hall. They included monks, mortals, traffickers, and scholars. They all walked here, all of them with a pious look.
"Sacred Lord Dungan gave a lecture."
"I have waited thousands of miles to come here just to listen to the teachings of the Holy One."
Everyone prostrated themselves on the ground, thanking Shengzun for preaching and accepting their karma to solve their doubts.
Qiao Xuan looked in the direction where they were kneeling. On the high platform, there was an old man with white beard and hair, but he couldn't make out his appearance.
Looking at the grand scene of all living beings worshiping here, this Donggan saint should be a very powerful god, but Qiao Xuan has never heard of it before, and even Wu Zimo, the number one gossip in the heaven, never mentioned this thing to him. Gan Shengzun, unless Wu Zimo didn't know at all, how could such a powerful person be different from him
What's more, what happened here really subverted Qiao Xuan's cognition.
In his memory, monks are monks, mortals are mortals, each has his own way, well water does not interfere with river water... How can mortals and monks listen to lectures together? Moreover, they live in such harmony and equality, this Holy One is really good at teaching without discrimination...
There is no such saint in the current Three Realms.
He couldn't help but took a few steps forward, trying to see the figures on the high platform clearly, but as soon as he moved, those illusions disappeared, and the surroundings became empty again, and the quiet needle drop could be heard.
Qiao Xuan waited for a long time, but couldn't see the illusion again, so he frowned and continued walking.
After passing through this hall, we came to a wide corridor. On the stone walls on both sides of the corridor, various murals were engraved. Because of the age, they have long lost their color, and even some are blurred and damaged, but we can still vaguely see some murals. content…
On the murals are sentient beings from the Three Realms.
There are mortals who build houses and canals, monks who practice with swords, women who give birth to children, and men who work on the land... There are also pictures of the lives of many races, among which the Feng family lives above the heavens, and the races are prosperous. Many bird people with wings seem to be Worshiping a tree…
Mortals and monks coexist peacefully, gods walk among the three realms, and there are many legends and stories on the murals.
Qiao Xuan watched as he walked forward, the more he looked, the more confused he became.
Some things here are the same as the Three Realms he knows, but more are different. For example, there are mortals, gods, and monsters here, but there is no such obvious boundary as today.
There are still many legends and stories here, and there are many great gods, but no one has ever mentioned it now.
Did any of these ever exist
But what exactly happened that would make all of this disappear without leaving any trace
He has never heard of someone like Donggan Shengzun...
and those people and things.
Not even a speck of it has been seen in the legendary classics, as if it has been completely erased from history.
Qiao Xuan knows that nothing can exist forever, and time will take away a lot of things. It's not surprising...but the strange thing is why there is no record
It's impossible for everyone to die, right? Even if all the people are dead, what about the traces of life, what about the things they left behind, it is impossible that there are no traces at all, right
Archeology can test something!
But if he hadn't happened to enter this ruin today, everything depicted here would have never existed at all...
It's so scary to think about it!
Alone and empty, the corridor seems to have no end, Qiao Xuan's palms are sweaty, and he feels a little anxious... Suddenly there is another voice in front of him.
A few girls in taupe-coloured dresses and double buns walked over laughingly. They all wore the same costumes, and they looked like they should be court ladies or something.
The delicate voices of the girls are as clear and melodious as a yellow warbler.
"Have you heard? The ancient gods from the beginning came to visit the Holy One."
"Really? Did you see it?"
"Yeah, I went to see it, Zunshen is really as beautiful as the rumors! I am lucky to be able to see it..."
The girls looked longingly, chattering non-stop.
"I heard that the god has accepted an apprentice."
"Didn't Zunshen never accept disciples? Who can be in the eyes of Zunshen?"
"Not sure, it seems to be a little guy from the Feng clan..."
"Wow, the Feng clan has gained face this time!"
The girls laughed and walked past Qiao Xuan, their voices gradually dissipating in the empty corridor.
Qiao Xuan continued to walk forward with a solemn expression.
This relic may not have been sealed for at least hundreds of thousands of years, but the phantom of the original still remains, which shows how deep the palace's heritage was in order to seal everything back then.
Not disappearing due to the passage of time, even if it is just a phantom, it is already very remarkable.
At least for Qiao Xuan, such a powerful person is unheard of in the Three Realms now...
Finally, Qiao Xuan came to the end of the corridor.
There was a barren and dark land in front of it. There used to be a forest here, but the trees had long since died, leaving only lifeless pitch-black trunks, and the ground was also dry and hard. It looked inexplicably horrifying...
Qiao Xuan hesitated for a long time, not daring to move on.
At this moment, small white flowers suddenly bloomed from the trunk, and the black trunk gradually turned into a crystal jade color, and the dark and gloomy land instantly became a sea of flowers, which was too beautiful to behold.
Qiao Xuan has seen the illusion twice, and he is already prepared.
But this beautiful scenery still made him feel emotional...and a little regretful.
Everything that was once so vibrant and beautiful is now just a piece of black and scorched earth...
In the distance ahead, a boy in white clothes ran over, followed by several court ladies in taupe-colored dresses.
"My lord, where are you going, my lord?"
"You can't run around here."
"Come back quickly, you will be worried if Zunshen can't find you later!"
Qiao Xuan paused. Although he knew what was actually happening in front of him, the illusion was really confusing, and it didn't look so frightening. Curiosity made him go on.
The young man in white didn't care about the dissuasion of the maid behind him, he seemed to be looking for somewhere, and ran forward on his own, Qiao Xuan followed behind them, a little curious about what the young man was looking for, and soon saw the young man Came to a pool of water.
The water of the lake is clear and transparent, reflecting the sea of flowers around it, which is as beautiful as a dream.
Qiao Xuanhu's footsteps stopped in place, showing a look of horror, but it was not because of the beautiful scenery in front of him, but because the young man turned his head and revealed a handsome face.
Isn't that yourself? !
After a long time, Qiao Xuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, then touched his own face, and finally confirmed that he was not dazzled, it was really - it was him!
But this is impossible, he was still an egg when he crossed over! A year ago it was still a bird, not even a human figure!
This is definitely not something he has experienced!
When he was in a daze, the maids suddenly fell silent, and knelt quietly on the ground one by one.
In the distance, a man in white with long black hair walked over slowly.
His face was somewhat blurred, but wherever he passed, the sea of flowers in Yushu was overshadowed.
When he gradually approached.
Qiao Xuan saw his face clearly, his eyes slowly opened wide, his first reaction was that the master came to save him.
But he soon realized that it wasn't—
This is not his master.
The black-haired man walked towards the boy by the lake. The boy raised his head with a smile and shouted: "Master..."
He seemed to be saying something, but it was too far away to make out.
At this moment, Qiao Xuan couldn't distinguish between illusion and reality. He subconsciously took a step forward, wanting to hear what they were talking about, but with his movements, the scene in front of him quickly became blurred. disappearing again.
This time he was very anxious, he hadn't figured out what happened, how could he just disappear like this...
He ran away, but he stretched out his hand, but he didn't catch anything. Instead, he stepped on the ground and fell into the icy lake!
Everything around disappeared, no sound, no picture.
In the illusion, the crystal clear lake water reflected the black earth, leaving only the endless darkness, like a bottomless abyss, Qiao Xuan was submerged by the lake water, at this time the white flame in the darkness appeared again, and the flame quickly sank into it In his body, in a trance, he saw an endless river leading to the cold and dead land of the dead. At the end of the river, there seemed to be a mirror looming...
Qiao Xuan only felt that it was difficult to breathe. There was clearly only a piece of scorched earth left here. How could there be lake water? If I had known earlier, I would not have rushed forward!
His consciousness gradually became blurred, and his body fell down involuntarily...
At this moment, a white figure fell down like a stream of light. The man with silver hair rippling in the lake water quickly approached and grabbed his hand.
