The next day, early in the morning, I was pulled out by the fat man.
He was very excited today. He said that he had thought about it for a long time last night. He felt that there should be an exquisite formation in the tunnel in the underground palace. The reason why we could shorten the distance to the Fire God Temple should be because of this formation that could shift space.
The more the fat man talked, the more excited he became. He told me that these formations that could shift space were the best ancient formations. Most of them had been lost. Even his sect's Zhanshi Sect didn't have many of them. Moreover, they were far from being able to shift space for hundreds of kilometers.
In the fat man's memory, only the legendary Close, Yet World's End formation could reach such a level. However, according to the records of his sect, this formation had been lost for thousands of years.
Even though Fatty was a slacker when it came to cultivating Taoist Qi, he was especially attentive when it came to matters related to formations. This time, he guessed that the formation in the passageway in the underground palace was most likely the Imminent Skyline Formation that had been lost for thousands of years. Needless to say, he was very excited.
After a night of rest, Uncle Lin's wounds were almost healed. After the three of us had breakfast, we immediately went to the underground palace.
My impression of this place was still the same as when I was in the third year of middle school. At that time, I felt that it was very dark and cold inside. There were also some ghosts wandering in the depths of the cave. Then, I saw the huge underground palace in the depths of the cave.
After so many years, the appearance of the cave hadn't changed. It was just that the ghosts were gone. I guessed that Uncle Lin had taken care of them.
It was obvious that Uncle Lin had walked back and forth in this cave many times. He was very familiar with the layout inside. Under Uncle Lin's lead, we quickly passed through the deep and narrow cave and arrived at the huge palace hidden underground.
Over the years, I have entered the Mausoleum of the Shang Dynasty, visited Chiyou's tomb, and also seen the Fox Palace of the Green Mountains, as well as the majestic scenery of the cave of Mount Wangwu. My knowledge is no longer the same as before. When I came to the underground palace again and looked at the majestic underground palace, even though it was no longer as shocking as when I first came, I still felt that this place was extraordinary.
At least, it wasn't something that a normal Heavenly Seal Master like Liang Tianxin could arrange. If this place was a tomb, then the layout of the Nine-Five Formation could be the tomb of an Emperor.
However, the architecture of the palace was very special, and I couldn't tell which dynasty it belonged to.
After entering the underground palace and passing through the lifelike stone carvings, the first thing I saw was a giant, blood-red coffin in front of a giant door.
This coffin was blood-red in color. It was around twelve meters long and three meters tall. It emitted a thick, ancient, and murderous aura. It gave people a feeling as if they were in a boundless sea of blood. I could faintly hear roars, filled with reluctance and reluctance.
I shook my head and concentrated. I chused to chant the Heart to recite a chant to clear my mind so that my mind would not be affected affected by the blood aura. I. Then I used to used to used words. I I used to check. I., used, and time. time.
Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my head, and a trickle of blood flowed out from the corner of my eye.
A monstrous blood aura suddenly surged towards me. It was as if it had turned into sharp thorns that directly pierced my mind. After that, I felt a sharp pain. I hastily stopped using the Clear Insight technique. I didn't look at the coffin anymore. The blood aura also dissipated.
"Third Baby, what's wrong?" Uncle Lin and the fatty asked with concern when they saw the blood at the corner of my eye.
I glanced at the huge coffin and replied with lingering fear, "I'm fine. I just felt that there was something strange about this coffin. I wanted to take a closer look, but I ended up suffering from a backlash."
As I said that, I had some doubts. Uncle Lin and the fatty were doing the same thing when I was examining the coffin. Could it be that they didn't feel the monstrous blood aura?
I couldn't help but ask Uncle Lin and the fatty, "Did you feel anything strange just now?"
Uncle Lin and the fatty shook their heads. "Everything is normal. I just felt that the huge coffin was simple and unadorned, but it had an indescribable power."
Uncle Lin and the fatty's words made me a little more doubtful. However, I didn't know what was going on, so I didn't linger on it. I asked Uncle Lin to take us to see the passage blocked by the coffin.
Uncle Lin brought the fatty and me to the side of the huge coffin. We stood in front of the huge stone door.
Looking at the majestic stone door, I recalled some things from the past. When I first came to this underground palace in the third year of junior high, I didn't know Bi 'an's name at that time. At that time, she seemed to have walked out of this stone door. However, I didn't see the door open at that time, so I didn't know how she had come here.
At this moment, Uncle Lin's voice resounded in my ear. "This huge coffin was originally stuck to the stone door. Later on, the coffin moved, and I found a passage behind it. The Fire God Temple was at the other end of the passage. Since I was afraid that others would find the Fire God Temple, I used rocks to cover the passage."
Then, Uncle Lin pointed at a spot under the stone door. "It's here."
I took a closer look. Sure enough, there was a slight difference between the soil here and the one next to it. If Uncle Lin hadn't pointed it out, I wouldn't have noticed it. I had to admit that Uncle Lin was much more cautious than ordinary people.
After we moved the rocks away, a passage as tall as a person appeared in front of us. The passage was dark, and I could hear the faint sound of the wind.
The three of us entered the passage one by one. Uncle Lin was familiar with the terrain, so he led the way. Although the passage was dark, with our current cultivation base, we could see the surroundings clearly.
After walking for a while, the passage widened, and the surrounding walls became more orderly. There were also some carvings of strange beasts. There were huge birds of prey, monsters with the head of a cow and the body of a snake … Although the carvings were rough, they had a general shape. After careful observation, I found that many of the monsters were similar to the ancient monsters described in the 'Classic of Mountains and Seas'.
"This should be the space behind the stone door, right?" I asked Uncle Lin.
"It should be. I've tried many methods before, but I couldn't open the stone door. I think that the small passage behind should have been made by someone who couldn't open the door."
Uncle Lin and I chatted casually. The fatty, who was usually a chatterbox, didn't say anything. Along the way, he looked at the surrounding walls, especially the cracks of the rocks. He looked very carefully, and from time to time, he would take out a few copper coins and fiddle with them. His expression was very serious.
"It shouldn't be like this. How could it be like this?" The fatty sighed behind us.
"What's wrong? Did you find anything?" I walked to the fatty's side and asked him.
The fatty shook his head and said to me, "Originally, I thought that this passage was a Sky's End great formation, but from the beginning until now, we've already walked for two hours, and I actually haven't found a single trace of a formation, but I can truly feel that this place is abnormal.
Not only that, I just made a divination and got the two words' Limitless'. Do you think that's a coincidence? "
"I can't help you with formations. You'll have to figure it out yourself."
I patted the fatty's shoulder and continued to walk forward. The fatty also followed behind me dejectedly.
After walking for about three hours, the passage in front of us gradually became narrow. The passage that was originally three to four meters wide became only enough for a single person to pass through. The surrounding rock walls were also filled with rocks.
"Uncle Lin, we're almost at the end, right?" I saw that the situation was strange, so I asked.
Uncle Lin nodded. "Soon. After this part, we'll almost enter the Fire God Temple."
At that moment, the fatty suddenly ran over and squeezed to the front. His eyes lit up as he stared at the rock walls on both sides.
Seeing the fatty's expression, I didn't need to think to know that he had found something. Uncle Lin and I didn't disturb him and just stood behind to watch the fatty fiddle with the little things that he had taken out of his clothes.
The fatty first casually threw the five ancient coins on the ground. After looking at them carefully, he took out four small flags of different colors and inserted them into the rock walls on both sides. After calculating with his fingers, he moved the small flags a few times. Then, we saw him suddenly laugh foolishly.
The four small flags moved even though there was no wind. The five ancient coins on the ground also started to move slightly. The fatty then took out a jade slip and placed it in the ancient coins. Then, he poured his energy into the jade slip.
Five wisps of white energy flowed out of the jade slip and entered the coins. In the next moment, the five coins suddenly changed their positions and stopped moving.
"Ha, ha, ha, I'm really a genius. A Sealing Absolute Formation, a Receiving Origin Formation, and with the help of the terrain, I found something that was hidden so deeply."
The fatty screamed excitedly. Uncle Lin and I were startled.
"Third Baby, come here quickly. I'll break the formation while you help me get this thing out. If I didn't guess wrongly, the thing below should be the core of the So Near, Yet World's End great formation," the fatty said as he waved at me.
I quickly walked forward and asked the fatty for more details.
"My guess from the beginning was correct. This passage hides a Close, Yet World's End formation. However, the person who set up the formation was very clever. He placed the formation in the mountain rocks and added a few isolation formations that completely blocked the Close, Yet World's End formation's aura. This was also the reason why I felt strange before, but I couldn't find any clues. Now, I've finally found the core of the formation. It's hidden in the rocks under our feet."
