Abandoned temple
Zhao Rui immediately became interested. While thinking about it, he nodded slowly and said, "That abandoned temple is indeed a bit weird. No matter what, we have to find a way to go there and have a look."
"But that God of the Fourth Heaven is very difficult to deal with." Dong Xiuling frowned slightly.
"Is he the only one there?" Zhao Rui asked.
Dong Xiuling thought for a while and said, "He should be the only one. At least until I left, I didn't see other immortals appearing."
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "There is only him as a god, so it will be easy. Dunche can help me. Princess Xiuling, you have met that god just now, so you can stay in the Mantra Palace."
As he spoke, he told the two of his plans.
Dong Xiuling and Dunche nodded while listening, and felt that Zhao Rui's strategy was simple and practical, with a high success rate.
The plan was made, Zhao Rui and Dunche went to the temple of forehead.
When he was almost there, Zhao Rui hid his breath and hid.
Dunche continued to fly towards the temple.
Just as he was about to approach the temple, a clear and majestic voice came from above: "Stop! This is a forbidden area, and no gods and demons are allowed to step in."
Dun Che looked up and saw a Valkyrie wearing a green battle armor, holding an ear of grain in his left hand and a green lightsaber in his right, stepping on a four-winged lion, sternly stare at myself.
This goddess has a beautiful appearance, with long golden hair tied into a long braid behind her back, making her look very capable.
The green battle armor fully displayed her slender and graceful figure.
Dun Che immediately obediently stopped in his tracks. The opponent was a high-level god of the fourth heaven. He was not an opponent.
Of course, Dunche would not forget his mission, so he pretended to be stupid and said, "Who are you? Why is it a forbidden area there? Can I just go and see?"
"I am Ishtar, the goddess of harvest! I am in charge of the guards here!" The goddess sneered, "You must not approach that evil temple! Otherwise, you will suffer the most violent attack!"
At the same moment, the divine lion at Istar's feet let out a deafening roar in coordination.
Dun Che was taken aback, and quickly said: "I'll go, I'll just go, why are you so fierce. Seeing that you are beautiful, but so fierce, you are like a crazy woman, what a shame. You are so fierce, I guess I can't find my husband, who would dare to look for you, that's simply impatient... "
Dunche muttered, turned around, and returned back the same way.
After listening to Dun Che's words, Ishtar was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke.
She is a deity of the fourth heaven, although she is still far behind the strongest immortal god Qi Tianzun in Qianshen Temple.
However, she is not afraid of other gods and demons except Shen Qi Tianzun.
In the Temple of Thousand Gods, she can be said to be a first-class powerhouse who is highly respected.
However, now this first-level demon who jumped out of nowhere actually talked to her like this!
This greatly hurt her dignity, how could she not be angry
"Stop!" Yistar yelled angrily, urged the lion under her feet, and flew to Dunche with a gust of wind, blocking her way.
"What did you just say? Tell me again if you have the ability!" Yistar pointed his lightsaber at Dunche's nose, his pretty face turned frosty, and he said loudly.
"What did you say?" Dunche pretended to be crazy, with an innocent face, "I didn't say anything? Could it be... What did you hear just now? It was an illusion, it must be an illusion."
Yistar was so angry that her brows stood on end, this little monster was so reckless, she wished she could immediately give this little monster a sword and cut him in half!
If she had done this in Wanmo City, there would be absolutely no problem.
Because, there is a world where the weak prey on the strong.
However, this is not the City of Ten Thousand Demons, but the Temple of Thousand Gods.
The Temple of Thousand Gods has strict regulations. Unless the crime is extremely heinous, they cannot fight among themselves at will, let alone kill the immortals and demons in the temple.
Therefore, although she was angry, she had nothing to do with Dunche for a while.
Yistar stared at Dunche fiercely for a long time with his beautiful eyes, and said through gritted teeth, "Get lost!"
After she finished speaking, she waved her slender hand, and a gust of wind blew up Dun Che directly several thousand meters away, before falling hard to the ground.
Dun Che had no resistance at all, he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and immediately smashed a big hole in the ground, his whole body was ashamed, and his buttocks seemed to be split, making him grin his teeth in pain.
Touching his buttocks and standing up from the ground, Dunche spit in the direction of Istar and cursed in a low voice: "This stinky bitch has a pretty face, but Why are you so fierce? It's like a shrew!"
His voice was very low, but Yistar was a god of the fourth heaven, and he could hear his words clearly from a few thousand meters away.
She was so angry that she really wanted to fly over and give this rogue little monster a good lesson, but when she thought of her responsibilities, she had no choice but to suppress the unknown fire in her heart, and she was too lazy to care about this guy.
Yistar didn't notice, just when her attention was completely attracted by Dun Che, Zhao Rui, who had been hiding not far away, suppressed his breath, and quietly sneaked towards the broken temple.
Soon, he sneaked into the temple without alarming Ishtar.
The temple covers a large area. Zhao Rui roughly estimated that it is about one square kilometer.
The temple is supported by hundreds of huge columns. The diameter of each column is more than ten meters, and the height is hundreds of meters. Standing under the columns, Zhao Rui feels that he is very small, like an ant, and it is very difficult to lift up. At the beginning, you can see the top of the temple.
This temple is very old, much older than other temples, and it is also very dilapidated, with broken walls everywhere, nearly half of the columns have been broken, and they fell on the ground at will, and there are also broken walls on the remaining columns. A spider web of cracks.
The roof of half of the temple collapsed and piled up into ruins.
Unknown dark red weeds emerged from the cracks in the rocks, and continued to grow in this harsh environment, making people feel desolate.
Zhao Rui stepped on the gravel all over the ground, walked through the lobby of the temple, and walked to the depths of the temple. In the deepest part, he found a square base with a height of 20 meters.
This base is very huge, carved from a complete giant rock, with fine magic patterns carved on the surface.
There should have been an extremely huge and majestic statue on the base, but now, there is nothing on the base, nothing left.
On the contrary, there are a lot of gravel and dust scattered around the base.
Zhao Rui bent down, picked up a piece of gravel and looked at it, and found that the material of this piece of gravel was exactly the same as that of the base, and there were traces of carving on it.
He thought about it for a while, and felt that the gravel and dust were probably part of the original statue.
However, for unknown reasons, the statue was completely vandalized.
Zhao Rui looked around carefully, hoping to find some more useful clues.
It's a pity that he couldn't find anything except the rubble all over the floor, let alone the clues of the Jade Emperor.
Zhao Rui couldn't help being greatly disappointed. He originally thought that he could somehow find something in this place, but what he didn't expect was that he found nothing!
He wanted to search more carefully to see if he could find any unexpected discoveries, but the Harvest Goddess seemed to have noticed something, and flew over here from a distance, riding a divine lion. Looking at the situation, it seemed that she was about to take a closer look. A temple.
There is no place to hide in the temple, so Zhao Rui can only leave in Istar before he finds himself.
Otherwise, he is afraid that he will be in great trouble.
Back in the hall of divine curse, the more Zhao Rui thought about it, the more strange he felt.
The dilapidated temple has no logo, no statues, and from the surface, there is nothing wrong with it at all.
Then why, the Temple of the Thousand Gods is still so nervous, treating it as a forbidden area, and even sending a goddess from the fourth heaven to patrol around, not allowing any immortals to approach
Zhao Rui pondered for a long time, guessing that some immortals might have deliberately destroyed the logo of that temple, just to prevent other immortals from knowing the origin of this temple.
But there is another huge flaw in this speculation: instead of destroying the logo, why not just destroy the temple? Isn't that much easier
Why do you have to spend so much energy to hide it
The more Zhao Rui thought about it, the more confused he became, so he decided to ask Dick, the magician, to see if he could find out something from him.
When he came to Dick's office, Zhao Rui went straight in.
At this time, Dick was sitting behind a large and exquisite stone table, dealing with some daily affairs. When he saw Zhao Rui coming in, he asked casually, "Zhao Rui, what's the matter you came to see me?"
"It's nothing, I'm just a little confused, I want to ask." Zhao Rui smiled, and then said, "When I was wandering around today, I accidentally wandered to the northwest corner, and I found there is a The abandoned temple is very weird, very different from our existing temples, I find it interesting, so I want to ask, what kind of temple is it? Why is it so dilapidated, like that?"
"You went to that temple!" The gentle smile on Dick's face disappeared, showing a look of surprise. However, he quickly controlled his emotions and returned to the original state. He smiled and asked, "Isn't there God of Harvest Ishtar guarding there? How could you enter at will?"
Zhao Rui shrugged and said, "Maybe... she was busy at the time, so she left for a while."
Dick smiled noncommittally, and didn't expose it. He just said: "That is the only forbidden area of the Temple of the Thousand Gods. Generally speaking, we don't allow the gods and demons of the Temple of the Thousand Gods to enter that temple. Because... because... there are evil and Horrible temple. It has nothing to do with our Thousand Gods Temple!"
Zhao Rui stared closely at Dick's eyes, and the suspicion in his heart became more and more intense.
Because, when Dick said the last sentence, he actually saw deep fear in Dick's eyes!
