Immortality: Start Cultivating Immortality From Pingshan Mountain

 “Go and have a look.”

 Chen Yulou put away his thoughts, finished the sixteen-character calculation, and looked aside.

Kunlun, who had been following closely, understood immediately.

Without any delay, he crossed the shrine in front of him and walked straight to the place where the golden light of the divine mirror shone.

 It is paved with half-meter square green bricks.

  Measurable.

 A thick layer of dust fell.

 At first glance, it is clear that there are many people and no one has set foot here.

 It also corresponds to what Oona said.

 It has been over ten years since the last time Azhiya came here to look for the sacred tree.

As for the previous sand bandits, it was purely due to good luck, and most likely by accident, that they entered the underground river from an ancient well in the city, followed the river, and arrived at the stone bridge.

certainly.

This is just Chen Yulou’s current guess.

When I asked Hoja last night, he couldn't explain clearly. He only said that the foreign devils led the way.

Perhaps there is more than one way to the underground palace.

At this moment, Kunlun stood outside the stone bricks and searched by the firelight.

 It’s a pity that no changes can be seen from the outside.

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly put the lantern aside, squatted on the ground, made a fist with his fingers slightly bent, and knocked along the floor tiles one by one.

At the same time, he listened intently to what was going on underneath.

 See this situation.

 Everyone around him suddenly understood, and the noise stopped immediately.

There are only four floor tiles in total.

Kunlun is extremely fast.

 Three realities and one imaginary.

There are only floor tiles on the side close to the Holy Mountain, and when you knock them, they return empty echoes.

Kunlun's eyes couldn't help but light up, but now he was cautious and did not act rashly. He just looked back in the direction of Chen Yulou.

“Shopkeeper, I found it!”

 Hear the words.

 Suddenly there was a low cheer from all around.

 There was almost nothing else in the temple except the jade bead, which was simply unacceptable to the Xiling bandits who were bent on making money.

 There can never be three teams.

 Two teams went to the city to scour the sand and pick up debris from the ocean.

 The underground palace they came to was not as good as them, right?

 “Can you open it?”

 Chen Yulou and others walked forward quickly.

 Sweep away with the help of light.

 The four floor tiles are tightly spaced, and there is almost no trace of opening.

"Let me try."

Following the shopkeeper's instructions, Kunlun started to work without hesitation. However, after several attempts, the floor tiles seemed to have roots and would not move at all no matter how hard he tried.

 The main reason is that the floor tiles have obviously been water-polished and the layer of dust has been blown away. The surface of the tiles is as smooth as a mirror, and there are really no grip points.

 Press down.

 They are also worried that it will be completely blocked.

Chen Yulou also saw the difficulty, took off the bone knife from his waist and threw it over.

As a weapon of self-defense for the Pingshan Corpse King during his lifetime.

Although it is just a short knife, the blade is as thin as a cicada's wing and can break hair when blown.

　　It has been soaked in corpse aura for many years in the coffin, and it has long turned into a vicious weapon.

The only weakness is that the front is very easy to break.

However, after being re-refined by Li Shuguo and incorporating several secret gold materials, this only shortcoming was completely made up for.

 Compared to Xiaoshenfeng, it is not weaker at all.

 Even more astonishing.

It’s just that he now has many means, and the bone knife has become a dispensable item.

 Take the knife.

Kunlun inserted it along the gap and then tried to use force.

only.

The blades are all curved into a half-moon arc.

The floor tiles still showed no sign of moving.

 “Shopkeeper, it still doesn’t work...”

 Kunlun did not continue to try.

 He follows the path of proving the Tao through force, and he has the keenest sense of the changes in force.

 Have been trying for so long.

 He actually already understands.

The four stone bricks in front of me look simple, but in fact they are interconnected. There should be a mechanism underneath. It would be difficult to break it apart by force alone.

 “I have gunpowder here.”

 “Commander, if it doesn’t work, let’s blast it by force.”

 Hear the words.

 A voice suddenly sounded.

These words together immediately received numerous echoes.

You should know that the Xieling faction has always done everything possible, using big shovels and big hoes, pulling oxen and horses, using medicine, stone and earthen cannons, cutting down mountains to make corridors, digging through rocks to hide, and even breaking down copper and iron walls with external force.

 Because of the methods of unloading mountains, almost all the Changshengshan guys have special skills.

 The man who spoke was a miner, who laid gunpowder and moved mountains and hills.

It was just that the oppression from above was so severe that they couldn't bear it. A group of miners resolutely rioted, killed the leader and the mine owner, and ran away with the silver mine.

 After being wanted by the government.

 It was in desperation that the grass dropped from Changsheng Mountain.

Originally, they were just trying to survive. No one expected that in just a few years, the once huge empire would collapse and collapse, and overnight, the city would be transformed into a king's flag.

 The wanted order became a piece of waste paper.

 But he has long been accustomed to a life of fighting. After all, in troubled times, there is no way to make ends meet.

 Changsheng Mountain is unrestricted and doesn’t have many rules.

 Fighting for a few years.

 Save a little money and you can go down the mountain and become a rich man.

 Seeing that everyone is eager to try.

 Chen Yulou shook his head.

The underground royal city of Jingjue Kingdom, said to be the Queen's Palace, is actually a large tomb dug along the Zagrama leyline.

 Thousand years down the line.

 It is extremely rare to be able to maintain it without collapse.

But if explosives are used and the balance is broken, it will be almost impossible to get in again.

 “Can Miss Oona open it?”

Looking at the figure holding the magic mirror, Chen Yulou asked.

Having seen strange methods such as worshiping mountains, he also wanted to see how shamanism opened the secret door.

 “What Atta used was to change the formation...”

 Oona shook her head, "I can't get in touch with you yet."

 “Change the formation? Illusion formation?”

 Listening to her slightly accented Chinese, Chen Yulou frowned slightly.

“A kind of witchcraft similar to transfiguration. You need to ask the earth **** to do it.”

 See him and ask.

Oona explained again.

 Transformation? !

These words together made not only Chen Yulou, but also Partridge Shao and others beside him unable to conceal their shock.

To be honest, I spent several days in the Turkic tribe that day.

I have also seen their altars and the ghosts and gods they worship.

In the minds of a few people, they are just like Moba from Maluzhai, and they mostly do things like divination, praying to gods, and herbal medicine.

If you really want to fight for territory, you still need a hunting team to take action.

But now it seems that the inheritance of shamanism has far exceeded expectations. Whether it is worshiping mountains to find the way, or the formation-changing witchcraft mentioned by Oona, it seems to be inferior to Taoist magic.

Even weirder.

 “Did you travel through thin air?”

Yang Fang swallowed secretly, hesitated again and again, but still couldn't help asking.

He once saw magicians on the streets who could walk through walls, swallow knives, spit fire, and even conjure a living person out of thin air in broad daylight.

　　At that time, he had just left the mountain.

 I was greatly shocked.

Even thought about becoming my mentor to those people.

But when they saw his charlatan attire and his astonishing aura, the magicians immediately changed their faces and refused to accept disciples.

Now that he heard what Oona said, his mind subconsciously recalled what he saw that day.

"yes."

Oona nodded.

As the only wizard in the tribe, Atta is responsible for the inheritance. There are many witchcrafts that even she cannot imagine. Even though she was young that day, she saw it with her own eyes.

Ata led her across the stone slabs. The light and shadow flickered. Then she looked up and saw that the surrounding environment had completely changed. The two of them were on a long stone staircase.

 It's like the road to purgatory.

 She was extremely panicked.

 But Atta only asked her to follow closely.

It was also at that time that she finally saw how the wizards of the clan had obtained the sacred tree.

“It sounds somewhat similar to the wall-penetrating secret technique of the Laoshan Taoist sect.”

“It’s a pity that I can’t see it with my own eyes.”

Chen Yulou said regretfully.

 In the past, he might have thought that Oona was talking nonsense.

But in fact, there is a similar Taoist method in the seventy-two techniques of Disha, which is called "penetrating stone". That is to say, by performing this technique, one can pass through gold and stone unobstructed and walk at will.

　　It has both divine walking, water-walking and talismans.

 Periodite must also exist.

It is a pity that since I found a copy of the Disha technique in the ancestral cave of the Miao people in the back mountain of Pingshan Mountain, it has been so long since I traveled five thousand miles from south to north, and I have never had such an opportunity again.

“Then…shopkeeper Chen, do you want me to invite the armored beast?”

Seeing that the road ahead was blocked and gunpowder blasting was denied, the old foreigner pointed to the bamboo basket behind him.

Since the two-headed armored beast turned into a demon, a pair of sharp claws can easily cut through the stone wall, such as wind-eroded rock, and it is as easy as cutting tofu with one claw.

These floor tiles in front of me.

Although it is thick.

 But it just takes more time.

 “There is a time when they will take action.”

 Chen Yulou shook his head.

After crossing the stone bridge, I wanted to enter the Queen's Tomb. The door embedded in the cliff was as solid as a rock, so I had to invite the armored beast.

"Can…"

What else does the old foreigner want to say?

 The next moment he was interrupted by a partridge whistle.

 “If you see that stone pillar is not there, come and help.”

While Oona used the magic mirror to find the secret door, he did not rest. Instead, he walked around with the lantern and studied all the sixteen stone pillars supporting the temple.

There are six eyes on each stone pillar.

Corresponds to the evil ghost, stone sheep, barbarian, giant-eyed general, patron saint and...representing the blank space of the imaginary number space on the hexagonal base.

These are the same as what they saw in the Black Tower last night.

 Completely consistent.

 The most important thing is that these stone pillars are grouped in groups of four. By changing the symbols and rotating the stone pillars, various abilities of the temple can be activated.

 And he looked at it carefully.

What can be confirmed is that no one has touched it before them, even the Turkic wizards who have been here for many years. After all, for thousands of years, their only goal has been the sacred tree under the ground.

 Even the jade eyes were not taken away.

 So it’s very possible.

The temple's stone pillars look like they do now, which were left by the brilliant people back then.

On the four groups of stone pillars, the symbols of the patron saints are crossed and facing each other.

 Think again of the flesh-ball snake egg that appeared out of thin air on the dome.

 It is not difficult to guess.

 Such an arrangement actually opens up the imaginary number space.

 To open the stone door, the key lies in these stone pillars.

However, it is not easy for him to deduce it in such a short period of time by himself.

 In the entire team, there are those who know the art of Feng Shui.

 It’s nothing more than him and Chen Yulou.

 So he decisively approached the latter and simply made a guess about himself.

After all, each of them had seen the layout here before, and the sixteen dragons clearly and secretly combined with each other. As long as they found the real dragon, they could turn the stone pillar by dividing the gold to fix the hole.

 Open the secret door and it won't be a problem.

What Partridge Whistle didn’t expect was when he was looking around for clues.

 Chen Yulou has already deduced most of it.

 Finally, with the joint efforts of the two people.

 The true dragon position emerges clearly.

 That is the stone pillar he is pointing at at this moment.

"it?"

Old foreigners are still curious about what kind of methods Shopkeeper Chen has, provided that it cannot be broken apart without using gunpowder, armored beasts and brute force.

 Suddenly I heard my senior brother’s instructions.

 Others could not help but be slightly startled.

"quick."

Partridge Whistle didn’t explain much.

As he spoke, he had already walked to the side of the stone pillar. He had tried it before. Due to the huge size of the stone pillar, two people had to surround it and use force at the same time.

"okay."

 At first glance, the senior brother’s face was serious.

The old foreigner didn't dare to delay and quickly walked to the other side of the stone pillar.

 “Brother, what should we do?”

His sight was blocked by the stone pillars, and the old foreigner could not face his senior brother at all.

The words just fell.

　　A gentle voice sounded in my ears.

“Looking for a dragon thousands of miles away, look for it on the left and right, follow the Yang five steps, and follow one of the Yin.”

 Hearing this sentence that was similar to a prophecy from heaven, the old foreigner was even more confused and had no idea how to start.

 “It means, turn five squares forward and then reverse one square.”

He was still in a daze when his senior brother's words finally came from the other side of the stone pillar.

 “Do it!”

 The old foreigner was refreshed and didn't waste any more time.

The two of them hugged the stone pillar and exerted force at the same time. It seemed to take root. The pillar weighing at least several kilograms actually started to rotate slowly under the combined force.

This scene made the waiters around look shocked.

They also thought that if there was a secret door and tunnel, the mechanism that was touched might be hidden in the temple.

 But no one would think of those stone pillars.

 After all, according to the past experience of dumping, the mechanical objects are either stone bricks on the wall or set on objects such as lamps.

Everyone was still stunned when suddenly, a clicking sound was heard in the darkness.

Kunlun turned around suddenly.

 The pupils shrank slightly.

The stone bricks that he had tried several methods before but could not open were now dented, revealing a bottomless tunnel that slanted downwards.

 “The shopkeeper’s…”

 He subconsciously informed Chen Yulou.

 But when he turned around, he found that the shopkeeper was already behind him.

 A pair of clear eyes seemed to be intertwined with golden light, staring into the depths of the tunnel.

Kunlun suddenly realized something, and immediately took half a step back. Yitian's tall figure silently protected him behind him, just in time to separate the people coming over.

 Perceiving his actions, Chen Yulou couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

　　After this boy understands.

 Although he looks cold and stern, his heart is much simpler than before.

Qingmu's spiritual eyes swept across the tunnel, and the tunnel that seemed invisible to outsiders suddenly appeared clearly in his sight.

There are hundreds of dark and deserted stone steps, corresponding to the scenes in my memory.

 In his observation room.

Everyone has gathered around, marveling at the caves on the ground.

 “It’s really opened...”

 The old foreigner also let go of the stone pillar, his face full of surprise.

 But it was Oona who was most surprised.

The eyes were shining with splendor.

Others were more or less aware of Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle's methods, but along the way, Oona never saw the two of them take action. She only had a keen sense that they might have a lot of background.

 After all, no matter the storm or danger is present.

 The two of them always looked calm.

 There is never a time to panic.

 Before this, he had only seen it in one person, and that was Atta.

 But after all, he has been traveling in the Black Desert for many years, has rich experience, has a wizard heritage, and has many magic weapons for protection. It is not surprising that he has such confidence.

 The two of them have never been here.

 Can do this.

 The only possibility for having such confidence is...that they have strength far beyond their imagination.

"Miss Oona, after these stone steps...is the Jingjue Palace?" (End of this chapter)
