After memorizing all the patterns that he could see, Qin Yu became suspicious. Although he had only memorized a small part of the patterns, this small part actually formed a small handprint.
Puzzled, Qin Yu sank his consciousness into his dantian and asked, "Senior, I saw a handprint, a handprint formed by patterns!"
"Is this what you saw from the stone hammer?
Did you see anything else when you saw it? "Chasing Famine asked in surprise. He did not expect Qin Yu to really see something from the stone hammer.
Qin Yu pondered for a moment and said, "I felt an extremely terrifying might, but I wasn't attacked at all!"
After a long time, Chasing Famine said, "This old man once heard that the immortal pattern obtained from the stone hammer was not from the stone hammer itself, but from an attack that the stone hammer had encountered. For some reason, it left a mark on the stone hammer, allowing the observer to see the immortal pattern and comprehend it!"
"This old man is not too clear about the details, but in a sense, the Laws of Heaven and Earth can be called immortal patterns. However, immortal patterns are not the Laws of Heaven and Earth."
Qin Yu was stunned. He did not expect immortal patterns to be related to the Laws of Heaven and Earth. After pondering for a long time, he asked doubtfully, "Senior, do you mean that immortal patterns are similar to the Laws of Heaven and Earth?
The Laws of Heaven and Earth originate from the world, and immortal patterns originate from cultivators? "
"Exactly!" Chasing Famine answered. He was amazed. This guy's comprehension ability was really rare.
After receiving Chasing Famine's approval, Qin Yu's mind lit up. He asked again, "Then how do I distinguish immortal patterns?
Is the handprint that I saw a type of immortal pattern? "
"Not necessarily," Chasing Famine said.
Qin Yu muttered to himself. Suddenly, he thought of something and was stunned.
According to Chasing Famine, any immortal pattern that Stone Hammer had comprehended was something that Stone Hammer had encountered before. The reason why it resonated with Stone Hammer was because the force that attacked Stone Hammer was similar. In other words, Stone Hammer had been attacked by that palm before?
Because the power contained in his Heavenly Finger was similar to that palm, it resonated and allowed him to see the scene in that instant?
If that was the case, could it be that the stone hammer had been attacked by the heavens before it landed here?
Qin Yu couldn't help but recall the extremely strange Heaven's Palm that he saw in the space where he was suppressing Chasing Famine. He still felt a lingering fear when he recalled that palm strike on his face.
A bold idea flashed through Qin Yu's mind.
"Who left this palm on the face of Heavenly Palm?
It's definitely not him … Is it possible that the person who left this palm on Firmament's Palm … is the one who attacked this stone hammer … In other words, the palm I saw was the palm on Firmament's Palm's face? "
When Qin Yu thought of this, he was completely stunned. If it was really as he guessed, then if he could master the palm formed by the immortal patterns … its power would probably be above Heavenly Finger!
Qin Yu took a deep breath and quickly opened his eyes. He looked at Stone Hammer above him and rose into the air. When he reached the handle of Stone Hammer, Qin Yu pressed down with his finger.
Heavenly Finger!
Qin Yu wanted to see if he could still see the strange phenomenon of that palm strike. Even if it was only for a moment, he would be satisfied.
To Qin Yu's disappointment, that palm strike didn't appear. Unwilling to give up, he descended again, took out the Wood Origin Spirit Liquid, and drank it. After meditating to recover, he rose into the air again …
Qin Yu tried this several times but to no avail. He could only give up.
After landing, Qin Yu sized up Stone Hammer with a calm expression. Even though he had only seen it for a moment, he still remembered some of the immortal patterns. If they were immortal patterns, he would benefit from them for life.
Qin Yu stopped thinking about it and prepared to leave. However, he heard Chu Qinlong say, "Li Youcai, be careful. Five people came earlier!"
Qin Yu was stunned. Only then did he realize that Niu Xi's corpse was gone. He looked at Chu Qinlong and clasped his fists. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chu."
"I said that as long as you don't die, I'll consider you my friend!
Now, it's time to test whether you'll die or not. "
Chu Qinlong grinned. Even though he looked extremely ugly, Qin Yu could feel his sincerity.
The corner of Qin Yu's mouth lifted slightly. He nodded calmly and said, "See you later!"
After saying that, Qin Yu walked down the stone steps. He couldn't wait to return to his temporary residence and study the palm imprint's patterns!
As he walked down the stone steps, Qin Yu's expression gradually turned cold. His slightly frowning brows emitted a trace of hostility. If it weren't for Chu Qinlong, he would have been attacked while memorizing the palm imprint's patterns. At that time, even if he didn't die, he would have missed the palm imprint's pattern.
This caused killing intent to rise in Qin Yu's heart.
He went up quickly, but he went down even faster. In less than ten breaths of time, Qin Yu was only a hundred steps away from the two ancient pavilions.
What made Qin Yu squint his eyes was that the number of people in the two ancient pavilions had decreased significantly. There were only twenty to thirty people in each stone pavilion. These people were dressed strangely, and their auras were ferocious. They were all in the Dao Knocking Realm, and there were even two half-step Dao Knocking Realm!
As Qin Yu walked down, some of the 50 some people in the stone pavilion were discussing something with each other. Some of them were meditating with their eyes closed. But no matter what they were doing, their bodies exuded a faintly discernible hostility.
When Qin Yu saw this, he slowed down. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. He took out a supreme-grade Dao Artifact battle armor from his dimensional ring and put it on.
Then, he took out a bottle of Wood Origin Spirit Liquid and gulped it down. Then, he took out a bottle of pills and poured them into his mouth. He tossed the pill bottle away, took out the Jiao Dragon Bow, and rapidly drew the bowstring.
The fifty or so cultivators in the ancient pavilions, who were still pretending, unleashed their auras at the same time. They formed two auras that shot into the sky and scattered the sea of clouds in the sky.
"Rumble!"
Qin Yu quickly drew the Jiao Dragon Bow, and ferocious golden arrows with supreme power pierced through several Dao Knocking Realm cultivators. However, there were too many people, and all of them attacked at the same time. For a moment, Qin Yu was surrounded by weapons and Dharma treasures.
Qin Yu's aura soared into the sky. He put away the Jiao Dragon Bow, and the Six Paths Defensive Shield covered his body. He took the initiative to rush toward this group of cultivators. The bones in his body rang like thunder. Qin Yu pounced on one of the half-step Dao Realm cultivators without hesitation.
The mountainside, which was originally shrouded in a sea of clouds, was now completely clear. Countless cultivators gathered at the foot of the mountain could see the mountainside clearly. When they saw more than fifty cultivators rushing toward Qin Yu at the same time, their expressions turned solemn.
Directly below the Immortal Hammer's stone steps were ten young men and women who bore the brunt of the attack. These young men and women were all riding powerful strange beasts. Each of them exuded a vigorous aura. They were dressed luxuriously, and their faces were filled with arrogance.
Among them, a young man riding a Scarlet Flame Golden Armored Beast stared at the mountainside with eyes as big as an ox's. His eyes were filled with ferocity. He had two golden ox horns on his head. Unlike Niu Xi, these golden ox horns were covered with patterns that formed circles around them.
When the bull-horned young man saw Qin Yu rush into the crowd, he narrowed his eyes and roared, "Everyone, attack! Today, we must tear him into pieces!"
The cultivators who were still climbing the stone steps and the few who were sitting cross-legged on the mountainside all stood up. There were about sixty people in total, and three of them were half-step Dao Realm cultivators. They attacked Qin Yu at the same time.
"I'll let him know that death is also a pleasure. I'll whip his corpse at the city gate and let everyone know the consequences of provoking our Misty Mountain!" another red-haired young man said sinisterly.
