The reality is that the white light in the center of the formation only flashed for a moment before dissipating...
"… Uh, low on energy?"
Chu Tianxiao compared the information Sha Yanyan told him and vaguely guessed the reason.
Although he guessed the reason, Chu Tianxiao did not immediately throw out the spirit crystal to activate it - after all, the "spiritual ore" used in the formation of the ancient clan is still to be investigated whether the mainstream spirit crystal mined in the vast land of Shenzhou today.
Therefore, the best way is to find a spare item that is most likely to be available nearby.
With a thought, Chu Tianxiao quickly expanded the power of his soul to the maximum range... His soul had experienced many adventures, and once it was promoted to the middle stage of soul awakening, it was fully exerted, so it goes without saying how wide the range it could explore was...
At that moment, he crawled over to investigate and found something strange here.
Actually, the top of the altar looked like a circular area, surrounded by rocks. Apart from some array patterns and a wider area, there was nothing special about it...
But now Chu Tianxiao doesn’t think so...
"… here!"
With a slight movement of his mind, Chu Tianxiao quickly came to a corner where the surrounding Qi was seriously imperfect, then he pressed his right hand on a protruding rock and gently pushed it inwards...
With two clicks, the rocks separated, and stone chips kept falling down, revealing a stone door.
The stone gate was several feet high and looked extremely heavy. There was a pattern carved on its surface that looked like thorns and flames... Obviously, it was some kind of symbol of the ancient tribe.
The gilded decorations were so shining that even Chu Tianxiao was fascinated.
"The Tomb of the Six Sages of the Liu Clan... So this is it!"
Without hesitation, Chu Tianxiao immediately placed his hand on the stone door, and the power of the tenth level of marrow cleansing fully erupted. With a full push, he finally managed to push it open...
"Tsk... It's so heavy. If it weren't for the corrosion of time, I'm afraid I really can't push it..."
Clicking his tongue, Chu Tianxiao's figure flashed and he quickly walked into the place. He saw that behind the stone gate, there were dozens of forked roads. Each passage was quite tall, and the ground was covered with all kinds of mysterious patterns, which looked very beautiful.
On the thick bluestones around, there are bright light patterns for lighting, with lights of various colors flashing, so there is no danger of getting lost.
only…
"More than ten forks in the road... Really cautious."
Chu Tianxiao pondered for a moment, then took out the Xingluo Chariot Plate from the Xumi Ring! This treasure snatched from Tuanmie Zhenming could solve the problem at hand.
After following the pointer for a while, passing through several stone gates and corridors, Chu Tianxiao finally arrived at an area with a clear view...
A dazzling ray of sunlight fell, and a scene like a fairyland appeared.
Jade trees and white flowers, snow willows on the cold river...
What I saw before my eyes was a snowy field covered in silver!
Even Chu Tianxiao subconsciously praised: What a beautiful scene!
I guess... this is where the six elders of the ancient Liu clan usually live.
"It's really comfortable... Wait!"
Suddenly, Chu Tianxiao realized something was wrong. He looked around and suddenly understood!
"Skeletons?"
Then I saw a skeleton standing in the midst of ice and snow, without even a single snowflake falling on it!
What's even more bizarre is... unlike the skeletons seen outside before, this skeleton not only has a stronger "remaining power", but is also crystal clear and intact. It is just like a finely crafted work of art carved out of a piece of jade, with no scars on the body... Oh no, except for his palms!
"… He raised his palm slightly, but a small hole was broken. Although the bones can still hold up, the 'aura' of this piece has almost disappeared… So it seems that when an enemy attacked him, he raised his palm to resist, but was pierced by a move, thus, fatal?"
At this point, Chu Tianxiao can almost conclude that this skeleton is one of the six sages of the ancient clan! Then, how powerful must an "attack" be that can penetrate the palm of such a person with one blow and transform this "not fatal" injury into a fatal one
"... If it is true as I guessed, then this attack should not have been blocked, which means..."
With a slight movement of his mind, Chu Tianxiao quickly spread his body and flew along a long straight line. Not long after, he saw the same skeleton, and not just one, but five!
Including the previous one...
"The ancient clan, the six sages, all perished here!?"
Chu Tianxiao felt a huge shock in his heart, and couldn't help but feel extremely curious. He quickly lay down and took a look. He saw that the five skeletons in front of him also had strong "remaining power". Their bodies were intact, but there was a small hole in the abdomen...
What is even more surprising is the location of these five skeletons...
"... Five layers of defense, penetrated by one blow? No, including the one just now, it should be six layers of defense! This blow, exactly..."
Seeing this, Chu Tianxiao really took a breath of cold air - you must know that judging from the "remaining power", these six sages can at least be comparable to the strong ones in the upper realm of Lingyue now, or even the peak! As everyone knows, the later you practice, the more difficult it is. After being promoted to a great practitioner, taking one more step forward is a great progress, and the gap cannot be measured in millimeters... In other words, the strong ones at the peak of Lingyue are completely different from those who have just entered Lingyue!
But now... it's like this
"The power that killed them... is above the fifth realm?"
No matter from which angle you look at it, you can only come to this conclusion... Chu Tianxiao was slightly shocked and subconsciously took a step back. When he took a step back, he suddenly felt something strange under his feet...
"Hmm? There are words?"
When he leaned over and took a look, he saw a string of words on the ground... Although Chu Tianxiao couldn't understand it at all, don't forget, he has a system!
Before, he could only read part of the "Dragon Language" by himself in the Coiled Dragon Pillar because the authority of the Great Prodigal System was not high enough. But now that it has been upgraded to level three, this string of ancient tribe's handwriting can be translated...
Or is it because of the "content" of the handwriting itself
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the supplement to the ancient body-refining technique!"
Chu Tianxiao was stunned when he heard the ding-dong sound, but soon he slapped his head and came to his senses.
Back then, Chu Tianxiao used the gold lottery in the Young Master's Building to obtain the ancient body refining technique in the treasure chest, but perhaps because the "level" was too low, he only reached the tenth level of marrow cleansing and the entry level of body refining.
After that, nothing.
Chu Tianxiao once thought that the ancient body-refining technique could only be cultivated to the entry level, and perhaps there was a gap in the subsequent stages
But now it seems...
"It's obviously a rip-off! Now that I think about it... I think I only got to the fourth level of Heavenly Sacrifice Thunder Art? And the Nine Transformations of Dragon Escape aren't complete... Hey, the last one doesn't seem to be related to the system, bah, who cares! Anyway, it's a rip-off system!"
After mumbling something in his heart, Chu Tianxiao hurriedly started reading the supplement to the ancient body-refining technique...
With just one glance, his gaze narrowed.
"Ancient body refining, marrow cleansing, hidden meridian cultivation..."
"Humans, demons, and all races have different visible meridians, but all have hidden meridians. They all have five branches, one for each of the four spiritual positions. Once they are opened, the Heavenly Spiritual Emperor's meridians can be activated..."
Seeing this, Chu Tianxiao's pupils shrank unconsciously.
In fact, he had heard the theory of hidden veins countless times before he "traveled through time". He had even heard of it in the vast land of China, but he just didn't know how to open it.
This is not surprising.
However, the sentence "Although the visible veins of each ethnic group are different, the hidden veins are the same" is quite unusual!
"... Let's not talk about anything else. Just look at the two races, the human and the demon. Even their cultivation methods are different. How could they have the same 'hidden veins'?!"
