Chapter 457: Starfield Bazaar
"If that's the case, aren't these people practicing from scratch?" Shi Mu said slowly.
"The old man said before that those who dare to practice the Nine-Turn Mysterious Kung Fu are all people with amazing talents and great perseverance. Human race boy, with all due respect to the old man, in your current situation, if you want to continue practicing Nine-Turn Mysterious Kungfu, The possibility of reaching the ninth rank is very small. In this life, I am afraid that you will stop at the second or third floor. In the end, you may end up in a tragic end. Why don't you just stay at the ninth rank The first level of Xuan Gong, if you have not completed the first round, how about asking me to help you abolish this Xuan Gong?" The green robed old ape's face became serious, his eyes fixed on Shi Mu, and he said slowly .
"Abolish Xuan Gong, how to abolish it?" Shi Mu asked with a slight frown.
"It doesn't matter how you are abolished, but after the abolition, your cultivation level will drop by one level. However, as compensation, you can choose another great supernatural power of the ancestor of the white ape here to continue to practice. You know, with The experience and cultivation of the ancestor of the white ape, any great supernatural power, is enough to let you run amok in this star field." The old ape in green robe waved his hand and said a little seductively.
Shi Mu didn't speak when he heard the words, he seemed to be hesitating.
"If you are reluctant to part with the first turn of the profound art and want to continue to practice, the old man can also give you a guide token, and you can use this token to participate in the selection of Qinglan Holy Land's disciples without any guarantee. Seeing Shi Mu's expression, the old ape in green robe continued to speak with a strange look in his eyes.
After all, the blue light flashed in the old ape's hand, and there was a green rectangular token. He spread his hands and handed the token to Shi Mu, never leaving his eyes from the beginning to the end.
The rectangular token looks like sapphire, but there is a stream of light hidden inside. On the surface, a coiled dragon wraps around a golden phoenix and spreads its wings. Two kinds of auspicious beasts are vividly carved.
On the front of the token, a towering tree with luxuriant branches is engraved, and the word "Qinglan" is engraved in ancient seal characters on the bottom of the tree.
"Senior, among the many supernatural powers cultivated by the ancestor of the white ape, is there any supernatural power method that is stronger than the nine-turn Xuan Gong?" Shi Mu asked after thinking for a while.
"Haha..." The old ape couldn't help laughing as if he had heard the funniest joke.
Shi Mu didn't interrupt, but just quietly looked at the old white ape.
"This old man can clearly tell you that the Nine Turns Mysterious Art is one of the three strongest magical powers in the Qinglan Holy Land. Even if you look at the entire star field world, it is also one of the few great magical powers in strengthening the physical body. !Although Patriarch White Ape possessed several other incomparably mysterious supernatural powers back then, none of them can be compared with Jiuzhuan Xuangong." The green-robed old ape shook his head at Shi Mu and replied seriously.
"Then I choose to continue practicing the Nine-Turn Mysterious Art." This time Shi Mu didn't hesitate too much, and answered directly.
"Oh, are you sure you want to continue cultivating? Are you not afraid of dying?" The green-robed old ape asked Shi Mu with narrowed eyes.
"I'm afraid, but Shi is even more afraid of becoming a coward who doesn't even dare to try the way of the strong. I once promised a person that I must become the strongest person in the world. Whether it is a planet or a star field, I want to become the strongest!" Shi Mu said lightly, but his tone was extremely firm.
Seeing Shi Mu's answer like this, the old ape didn't ask any more questions, but laughed out loud.
"Senior, why are you laughing?" Shi Mu frowned.
"Okay, very good! Human race boy, you made the right choice. To be honest, if you choose to give up, you will already be a cold corpse at this moment, and this old man will kill you here without hesitation In the old man's opinion, how can a person who does not even dare to practice Nine Turns Xuangong be worthy of being the true successor of Patriarch Baiyuan? Great reputation. Haha..." The green-robed old ape said loudly, his eyes suddenly glowing.
Accompanied by bursts of laughter, the old ape's stooped body suddenly straightened up, but his thin body slowly swelled up.
Shi Mu felt dazed for a while, and after concentrating for a while, he realized that the body of the green-robed old ape in front of him was collapsing little by little.
"Senior, you..."
Just as Shi Mu was about to say something, he saw the old ape grinning at him, waved his sleeve, and a blue light shot out from it.
Shi Mu only felt a flash of blue light in front of his eyes, and then his mind felt heavy, and he fell asleep again.
I don't know how long it has passed before Shi Mu woke up slowly.
He shook his head, and after regaining his composure for a while, he immediately found himself lying on a circle about Zhang Xu in size, surrounded by pitch blackness, obviously no longer in the space in the sky-shattering stick.
"Snapped"
As soon as Shi Mu sat up, he heard a crisp sound in his ears. He stretched out his hand to touch it, and there was something more in his hand. Looking closely, it was the guiding token engraved with towering ancient wood.
He brought the token closer to his eyes and looked it up, then put it away.
Standing up, he looked around and found that he was at one end of a long and closed space, surrounded by dim light, vaguely resembling a large hall.
The main hall is empty, without too many decorations, it looks a bit shabby.
Not far behind him is a tall palace gate, and at the bottom of the other end, there are some stone pillars erected in the shadows, which seems to be a teleportation circle.
Shi Mu walked slowly to the door of the tall hall, stretched out his hands and pressed on the door, and pushed forward.
With a push, the palace door remained motionless.
Shi Mu increased his strength and pushed hard, but the door of the temple was still closed.
At this time, in the dark hall, a mass of crimson light suddenly lit up, and behind Shi Mu, a phantom of a scarlet fire ape surrounded by flames appeared.
Shi Mu pressed his hands towards the gate of the palace, and the huge hands of the red ape figure also pressed on the gate of the palace at the same time, and pushed forward suddenly.
"Buzz"!
Suddenly, two huge figures appeared above the gate of the palace, both of them looked like glaring Vajras, one holding a square lance and the other holding a golden mace, both of them released a gentle pale golden light.
As soon as the light appeared, Shi Mu felt a huge force rushing in, pushing him and his red ape dharma back together.
That power was as vast as the sea, making Shi Mu's heart tremble. He knew that at least with his current strength, it was difficult to compete.
Shi Mu stepped back immediately, walked to the wall on one side of the main hall, and touched it with his hand. There was a coolness in the palm of his hand, which felt like an ordinary stone wall.
However, when he released his spiritual consciousness to sweep it towards the stone wall, the result was that the spiritual consciousness bounced back as soon as he touched it, unable to penetrate at all.
Shi Mu was not surprised, and used his spiritual sense to test the four walls, and found that the results were all the same, so he had to give up, turned around and walked towards the magic circle at the other end.
Before, due to the dim light and the distance, he could not see clearly. Now, after a close observation, he found that the layout of this magic circle is almost exactly the same as the ancient teleportation circle in the forbidden area of the aquarium, but the scale is much smaller. few.
Shi Mu stared at the formation for a while, and found that there seemed to be nothing unusual about the formation, so he immediately stepped up.
"Crack."
Before Shi Mu could do anything, a black platform in the center of the magic circle suddenly rose, and a large white light appeared on the surface. At the same time, in the void of the main hall, there was a sudden burst of intensive mantra chanting, and the surrounding stone pillars followed one after another. lights up.
The next moment, Shi Mu felt a violent fluctuation of the magic circle under his feet, and then a white light flashed in front of his eyes, and his figure disappeared.
Different from the thrilling teleportation process last time, Shi Mu didn't experience any fatal crisis this time, he just appeared in another strange environment after feeling the world spinning for a while.
It's pitch black and the sky is low and starry.
He looked around, only to realize that he was on an extremely huge platform, surrounded by many teleportation circles, hundreds of coiling dragon stone pillars standing far and near, like a forest of stone pillars.
In the forest of stone pillars, various figures of different heights shuttled back and forth, and some people set up stalls on the outside of the platform, forming a large-scale open-air market, which seemed to be selling something.
These figures on the distribution platform looked weird, most of them had some characteristics of humans and monsters, which really opened Shi Mu's eyes.
For example, some are full of fiery red, with a huge crocodile head on their neck and a long python tail covered with rhombic scales; From the head of a boa constrictor, spit out a scarlet letter with a forked front end, in short, there are all kinds of strange things.
Shi Mu let out his consciousness and glanced at it, slightly startled in his heart.
Among these people, those with the strongest aura have actually reached the heavenly position, but there are only a few of them, and most of them are still born at the ground level, and none of them are found below the innate level.
After appearing from a certain teleportation array, except for a few who were attracted by the surrounding stalls, most people didn't intend to stay here too much. They hurriedly walked into each teleportation array, and disappeared after a flash of white light. figure.
Shi Mu observed for a while, only to find that the magic circle under his feet was located in a remote corner of the platform, and the nearby magic circles were deserted, with no one there.
He looked back for a while, and wrote down the location of the magic circle, then stepped away from the magic circle and walked towards the middle.
After spending about half an hour walking around on the huge platform, he finally had a general understanding of the huge platform.
This should be the gathering point of a teleportation array in a certain star field. The teleportation arrays distributed here should lead to various planets, and these seemingly weird people should come from various planets.
When these people communicate with their companions, they can speak some strange words, but when they communicate with people who are not of their own tribe, they can speak another language. After Shi Mu's careful comparison, it is found that the latter language should be is a common language.
In addition, if these interstellar travelers want to use the teleportation array here, they will prepare their own star stones, as long as a fingernail-sized piece is embedded in the array, and then they will take out a black talisman and slap it on their bodies, turning it into a After covering the whole body with a layer of black mask, the magic circle can be activated to teleport away.
When he saw this, he suddenly thought about it.
It seems that in the star field world, low-level warriors and warlocks can also use the star field teleportation circle.
Then Shi Mu smiled again.
It seems that the fist-sized starstone that he has cherished for many years finally has a place to use in this star field world.
With this in mind, he started to walk towards the open-air market outside the platform. (To be continued.)
