In the secret place, it seems that there are only five big mantises as guardian beasts, and there are no other living creatures. Until the two entered the palace, there was no movement.
Sun Qingxue seemed to be a little apprehensive about what had just happened. Even if she entered the palace, she still carefully opened the protective magic weapon, daring not to be careless.
Yang Chen was the same, but he was much better than Sun Qingxue. After all, Jin Zhong would appear as long as he had his own thoughts, and he would take the initiative to absorb attacks, which made Yang Chen rely a lot more.
The palace is very big, and there seems to be an underground spiritual vein here, which causes the spiritual power in the secret ground to be much higher than the outside. It is precisely because of this reason that those big mantises can live to this day.
However, what makes people strange is that this sect has been extinct for at least ten thousand years, and those big mantises have lived for ten thousand years and are still in the Nascent Soul stage, which is a bit confusing. Since he can't advance to the Mahayana period, it is obviously abnormal to have such a long lifespan.
But now is not the time to investigate these reasons, I have already entered the hall, and I don't want to search for it, I can't justify it.
The entrance to the palace is a hall, surrounded by several doors, but the hall is empty, only a well. A thick spiritual energy spilled out from the well, which was clearly a spiritual outlet. It's just that there is no formation to avoid dust, there is dust everywhere, stepping on it with one foot, there are several inches of hòu.
Several gates are not marked, it seems that they can only go in one by one to investigate. Yang Chen's consciousness swept over and signaled Sun Qingxue to put away the flying sword. The level of the Foundation Establishment period is indeed a bit tiring while using the self-defense magic weapon and using the flying sword.
This time, it was Yang Chen who was training Sun Qingxue, so naturally it was Sun Qingxue's choice. Sun Qingxue happily opened the first door on her right hand, while Yang Chen walked in first, blocking Sun Qingxue behind her body.
This room, which looks like a study, has a wall full of bookshelves.
However, there are only a few hundred pieces of jade slips covered with dust on the bookshelf and nothing else.
There was originally an imprint of paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall next to it, but now it is empty, only a pair of broken scrolls, which have been rotten and cannot be seen.
Sun Qingxue curiously walked to the bookshelf and reached out to pick up a piece of jade slip. As a result, as soon as the hand touched the bookshelf, the bookshelf turned into a pile of dust. Dissipated suddenly. Fortunately, Sun Qingxue had been using the protective magic weapon and retreated in time, so that she was not surrounded by the rising smoke.
Fortunately, nothing happened to the jade slip. Sun Qingxue reluctantly used her divine sense to explore the contents of the jade slip, but found that she couldn't understand what was recorded in it. That kind of curved text, like the one on the secret key.
Thinking about it, Sun Qingxue handed the jade slips to Yang Chen, and when Yang Chen was investigating, she went straight forward, collected all the jade slips scattered in the powder on the bookshelf, and sent them to Yang Chen in one go.
"These are the inheritance of this sect's practice." Yang Chen shook his head after reading a few articles: "There are still many fallacies in the ancient practice, and there is no reference value!"
Just like in Qingqiong Shangdongfu, these exercises are a bit outdated and can no longer be compared with the current system of exercises. Not even a reference value.
"It's useless for me to hold it anyway, it's better for you to put it away, Big Brother Yang!" Sun Qingxue knew that she didn't know these things, so she gave them all to Yang Chen. To talk about exercises, there are hundreds of thousands of exercises in Qingyunzong's Tibetan Sutra Pavilion, where can we use the exercises that were used thousands of years ago.
Yang Chen also put it away indifferently, these things, that is, as antiques, have some value. If someone wants to sort out the changes in the practice, these are valuable materials, but if they want to practice, then they are simply looking for trouble.
The two looked at the room for a while, but couldn't find anything worth taking away, so they turned back to the hall and continued to enter the second portal.
As soon as you enter the door, you will be greeted by a giant cauldron with embroidered embroidery as high as two people. There is almost no need to ask, it must be an elixir room. On the other side of the wall are small stone lattices, and there should be things in them, but these things are covered with dust, and it is impossible to see what they are for a while.
"Brother Yang, if you are familiar with alchemy, you should come and have a look!" Sun Qingxue looked at the situation and pushed Yang Chen to the front.
Yang Chen is also welcome. When it comes to alchemy, there is no one in the mortal world who has more knowledge and knowledge than him, and he went to the front.
Walking to the side of the giant cauldron, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Yang Chen touched the body of the cauldron and penetrated into the mouth, and the result was soon obtained. To Sun. Qingxue said: "This alchemy furnace is of average level, but the material is not bad, you can put it away!"
If Yang Chen can say that the material is good, then the material must be good. Sun Qingxue stepped forward happily and received the giant cauldron into the Qiankun bag. Then, watching Yang Chen walk in front of the stone cells over there, he stretched out his hands one by one to investigate.
Most of the dust buried in these grids are medicinal materials. However, after tens of thousands of years here, it has long since turned into powder, and together with the dust, it is impossible to distinguish it.
I found several grids in a row, and it was all the same. In ten thousand years, even the rare elixir has turned into dust. But aside from the big cauldron, there was nothing worth taking in the room.
The third door, which was larger than the others, seemed to lead to the master's room. However, as soon as Yang Chen entered, he saw a pair of big eyes almost in front of him. Yang Chen was horrified, the Mingguang Sword was quickly held in his hand, and Sun Qingxue was blocked with one hand.
Just as he was about to start, he found that the other party was motionless. After a closer look, I realized that it was just the corpse of a big mantis. With his divine sense, Yang Chen quickly discovered that there were more than 20 corpses of large mantises in this room.
This is the only spotless room here, with more than 20 big mantises lined up, almost all in the same posture. Under the support of six feet, the huge body stands firmly like a stone sculpture.
"My God!" Sun Qingxue also followed, seeing this scene, she couldn't help but let out a voice of amazement.
Yang Chen now knows why there are five big mantises in the Nascent Soul period outside. Presumably the original guardian beast gave birth to a little mantis when he felt that his lifespan was about to expire. Afterwards, the little mantis grew up from generation to generation, and grew up to the Nascent Soul stage. No wonder Yang Chen was attacked as soon as he came in. It turned out that these mantises didn't know the rules at all.
