Dreaming about the world, embarking on the path of spiritual practice

…

Yu Liang stood there, his breathing gradually subsided, but his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle. After looking around and confirming that there were no other threats, he slowly relaxed his tense body.

At this moment, the voice of the ontology subsystem sounded in my mind again: "Not bad, the problem is solved very simply."

Yu Liang chuckled and responded: "Thank you for your 'prompt'!" and then asked, "But then again, what is going on with this stone monster?"

The ontology subsystem replied: "Want to know? Go explore the place where it emerged and it will become clearer."

Hearing this, Yu Liang nodded slightly, and then walked towards the cave passage where the stone monster appeared.

Deep in the cave, the light became darker and darker, and his steps became more and more cautious.

After walking for a long time, Yu Liang suddenly came to a huge underground palace.

"This seems to be a relic."

Carefully, he walked forward to check.

I saw that the door of the palace was closed tightly, and the door was engraved with ancient runes and patterns, as if telling a period of dusty history.

After looking around and finding out that there was no problem, Yu Liang took a deep breath and opened the palace door.

As the door slowly opened, a faint light emerged from the crack in the door, gradually illuminating the scene in front of him. At that moment, Yu Liang's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and the scene in front of him shocked him like never before.

The interior of the palace is spacious and deep, with towering stone pillars supporting the magnificent dome, and each stone pillar is carved with complex patterns that are lifelike.

The walls are covered with gorgeous murals, colorful and depicting mythical scenes.

The ground is paved with exquisite floor tiles, and every step seems to be stepping on the track of history.

There is an ancient and mysterious atmosphere in the air, which makes people hold their breath involuntarily.

Yu Liang's eyes wandered around the palace, and he was amazed by every detail.

It seems that you can feel the former splendor and glory of this palace, as well as the traces left by those long-gone years.

"It's really shocking!"

Yu Liang murmured to himself, with a hint of trembling in his voice. He had never seen such a magnificent sight.

Step by step as we walked deeper into the palace, we were extremely careful with every step we took, for fear of disturbing the tranquility that had been sleeping for thousands of years.

Observe while walking, trying to decipher the history and secrets of this ruins from these ancient murals and carvings.

Although the light in the palace was weak, it was enough for Yu Liang to see the spectacular scenery around him clearly.

Towering stone pillars, gorgeous murals, exquisite floor tiles, and the ancient atmosphere in the air together constitute a complete and harmonious art world.

"Won't you interpret it for me?"

While observing the palace, Yu Liang asked the ontology subsystem.

"Interpretation of what? I have never been to this place. Without this information, what can I tell you?" the ontology subsystem replied.

Suddenly, Yu Liang stopped and stood in front of a mural depicting a grand event.

The characters in the painting are lifelike, as if they are holding a grand ceremony.

"This is a sacrifice!" He whispered to himself, full of curiosity about the unknown.

Continuing to move forward, Yu Liang found an altar with a faint light deep in the palace.

There was a seemingly ancient and powerful relic placed on the altar, which emitted a faint blue light and seemed to be calling him.

"What is that?" Yu Liang came closer, feeling an urge to explore but also accompanied by a hint of uneasiness.

"If you want to know, just go up and take a look and you'll find out," the ontology subsystem said.

"Yeah!" Yu Liang nodded slightly, "That makes sense!"

Then, Yu Liang turned around and left without looking back, leaving the palace he had already visited.

"Quite cautious!"

After leaving the palace, the ontology subsystem smiled and said to Yu Liang.

"If you want to live a stable life for a long time, don't cause trouble for yourself." Yu Liang said lightly, "Control your curiosity and don't blindly interact with unknown things."

Return to the ground.

Yu Liang looked around. He didn't know where he should go next, so after randomly deciding on a direction, he headed in that direction.

I don’t know how long he walked, but Yu Liang felt that he had gone far enough.

This road was deserted and populated. If he hadn't accidentally encountered a witch chasing a ferocious beast before, he would have doubted whether this place was in a desperate situation.

Finally, Yu Liang saw a huge city in the sky. He immediately quickened his pace and climbed to a high hill. When the detailed appearance of the city came into view, he stopped and began to observe carefully.

"Oh My God!"

Yu Liang suddenly let out an exclamation, and for a moment he thought he had seen it wrong.

The grand city that appeared in front of him gave Yu Liang his first impression of an ultra-modern city full of high technology.

The overall volume is very huge, no less than a continuous mountain range. Its main structure is made of a golden material, which shines under the sun, exuding dazzling golden light, shining on the earth like a second sun.

Every building in the city is made of this golden metal, full of the technological atmosphere of a steel city.

Yu Liang's eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Am I right? Or am I really dazzled?"

Just when Yu Liang was about to ask the system, the system took the lead and said: "Don't ask!"

Hearing this, Yu Liang curled his lips and complained in his heart that this system was too bad, as if he didn't know anything unexpected.

Go and take a look.

Following his thoughts, Yu Liang jumped and quickly headed towards this magnificent city.

As he got closer, more of the city came into view.

The city wall towered into the clouds, like an insurmountable natural moat, with intricate patterns carved on it. These patterns seemed to contain some ancient and mysterious power. They glowed slightly in the sun, as if alive.

The huge city gate stood in front of him like two cliffs. A huge golden plaque was hung on the gate tower, with several mysterious words on it. The handwriting was flying and majestic, but at certain specific light angles, the words on the plaque would flash with strange light, as if hiding some secret information.

"Do you know it? What's written on it?"

Yu Liang was full of curiosity. Just as he was about to ask the system about the mysterious words on the golden plaque, a few streams of light suddenly flashed above the city gate, and a one-eyed humanoid phantom with countless tentacles flying on its head was projected in front of him.

A ray of light shot out from the one eye of this one-eyed humanoid phantom, first scanning Yu Liang, and then a message was directly transmitted to Yu Liang's mind:

"Information unknown... Bloodline verification is correct, primary authority is opened... Welcome to Zhurong Department!"
