Chapter 365 Five Murals
Under the distant gaze of the monks in the Soul Burial Abyss, the black gas that soared into the sky began to change at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But it was seen that it gradually began to fade and turn white from the bottom to the top, as if something had purified the evil spirit in it.
This scene made the monks watching at first stunned, and then their expressions varied. Some had strange lights in their eyes, some showed unbelievable expressions, and others stared at the black gas that soared into the sky, as if they wanted to see through it at a glance and figure out the reason.
After a while, the evil wind and thunder that lingered in the black gas column that soared into the sky quickly dissipated, and was replaced by an extremely rich wave of spiritual energy, which spread outward with the black gas as the center, one wave after another, sweeping across the entire Soul Burial Abyss like water waves, making all the monks feel refreshed.
After about ten breaths, the black air that rose into the sky had completely turned into a pale white spiritual light, and even tore through the dark clouds that had been lingering over the Soul Burial Abyss all year round, bringing the long-lost sunlight to this land filled with evil spirits.
In the spiritual light, a majestic palace about a hundred feet high slowly rose from the abyss.
Its entire body was made of flawless purple jade. Under the sunlight, the faint purple spiritual light was like a dream, lingering in the palace, making people yearn for it.
"The immortal mansion, an immortal mansion has appeared in the world!"
The Jindan cultivators in the Soul Burial Abyss were surprised to see this scene. Some anxious people immediately flew towards the palace with their escape lights, fearing that they would be one step slower and be robbed of their opportunities by others.
However, when they approached the palace, they were all isolated by the spiritual light shrouding it. No matter whether they used magic or activated magic weapons, they could not break through this spiritual light and step into the palace.
Some cultivators who were unwilling to give up were still trying, but more people began to realize that perhaps the time for the Immortal Mansion to be truly opened had not yet arrived.
After hesitating for a moment, they either used their magical powers or activated their magic tools and talismans to contact their sects, families, and other friends, and then they found a safe place nearby one by one, waiting for the opportunity to come.
…
At the same time.
Yuan Ming was surrounded by blood-red rays of light, and felt that the surroundings were all red. Apart from that, he could not hear any sound, nor could he use his spiritual sense to penetrate the rays of light, as if he was completely isolated from the outside world.
Fortunately, he found that except for the restrictions on his movements and perception, he was not affected in other aspects, and his situation was relatively safe.
After he forced himself to calm down, he relied on his powerful spirit to vaguely feel that he was being dragged in a certain direction in the rays of light.
He was also powerless to resist, so he could only let it go, but he remained highly vigilant in his heart.
I don’t know how long it took, the blood-red rays of light in front of him were suddenly torn apart like clouds and sun, but his vision was dark.
But then, his body fell rapidly downwards due to the loss of support.
Yuan Ming had recovered his mobility and mana at this moment. He immediately spit out the Soul-Destroying Sword to protect his body, and summoned the White Jade Shuttle to hold his body. His eyes and consciousness quickly looked around.
This place was obviously no longer the underground of the Soul Burial Abyss. He seemed to be in a strange and empty hall now. The surroundings were very dark and silent.
Yuan Ming controlled the White Jade Shuttle to slowly descend. When it was close to the ground, he raised his hand and released King Kong.
King Kong's body fell heavily to the ground, making a loud "boom" sound, which echoed in the hall, and there were waves of rumbling echoes.
As soon as he stood firm, he slammed his fists on his chest, took a stance, and looked around, ready to fight at any time.
However, there was nothing around, only he was standing alone.
King Kong looked up at Yuan Ming with some doubts, as if waiting for his orders.
"Where is this? Could it be deep in the cracks underground?" Yuan Ming did not respond to King Kong, but extended his consciousness outward, wanting to see what was happening outside the hall where he was, but when his consciousness touched the wall, it was bounced back.
He was a little surprised, and tried several more times, and found that neither the first soul nor the soul crow could cross the wall, so he could only suppress his desire to explore outside and carefully observe the surroundings.
The hall where he was was very spacious, enough to accommodate thousands of people sitting cross-legged at the same time, but there were no decorative ornaments inside, and even the windows above the wall were fake windows built with large pieces of moonstone, which could not lead to the outside world at all. This was also the only light source in the hall.
In the direction opposite the gate, a deep and dark corridor led directly to the interior of the building, but its entrance was covered by a light red ban, which also blocked the consciousness, and Yuan Ming could not figure out the situation inside.
In addition, the only thing worth paying attention to in the hall was the five murals on the wall.
The murals all took a human figure as the main body, and seemed to depict several scenes of his growth.
In the leftmost mural, a baby is born, accompanied by his parents, and surrounded by relatives and friends. It looks like a wealthy family. Everyone in the painting looks at the baby in the middle with smiles on their faces.
The content of the second mural begins to change. There are six figures from left to right in the painting, which seem to represent different stages of the baby's growth, from staggering to walking fast. The baby grows into a teenager, and finally kneels down at the feet of a Taoist priest.
The scene in the next mural continued the content of the second one. It depicted a young man learning art, but all the boy's movements were concentrated on one person, which made it look like this person had grown three heads and six arms.
The scene in the fourth mural was particularly grand. The young man stood alone on the right, with a dark crack behind him. On the left side of the picture, countless figures bid him farewell with tears, all of them looking reluctant to leave, which was quite tragic.
In the last mural, the young man stood upright in the sky, and countless figures worshipped below him. It seemed peaceful, but there was a dark hole in the left eye of the young man in the painting, as if someone had gouged out his eyes, which looked very strange.
Yuan Ming's spiritual sense swept across the mural and found that there was no spiritual power fluctuation on the mural, but after carefully reading the content of the painting, he couldn't help frowning.
With his many years of experience in painting, these five paintings seemed to be integrated, but there were obvious signs of changes. It should be that someone covered the already painted paintings with new paint, thereby changing the content of the picture.
Yuan Ming tried to restore the five murals, but found that the murals had merged with the wall. Even if he used magic weapons, he could not hurt them at all.
The only exception was the last painting. When Yuan Ming urged the Soul-Destroying Sword to hit the mural, the position of the boy's right eye in the painting suddenly lit up.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming immediately controlled the Soul-Destroying Sword and carefully poked the boy's right eye. Then he saw the boy's right eye suddenly cracked, and a white ring fell out of it.
Yuan Ming picked up the ring and found that it was cold and had a burning feeling when it fell into his palm. He tried to refine the ring, and then he was surprised to find that he could not sense the distribution of the rune array on the ring.
This reminded Yuan Ming of the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts. The rune structures of these two magic weapons are so similar. Could it be that they are from the same source?
Thinking of the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts, Yuan Ming couldn't help but think of the ghost slaves swallowed by the blood-colored glow. More than 20 Jindan ghost slaves who could have been his important helpers were so easily melted, which really made him feel heartbroken.
He sighed for a while, and then turned his attention to the white ring in his hand.
Compared with the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, the ability of the ring is more single. After injecting magic power, he can only release a white mist.
This mist looks ordinary, but it actually contains icy cold air. Anything that touches it will be frozen, and magic weapons are no exception.
Facing this white cold mist, even King Kong, who has cultivated a congenital body, showed a trace of fear and subconsciously stepped back a few steps.
This white cold mist can not only freeze the body, but also affect the soul unconsciously. Yuan Ming did not realize this at first. It was not until he put away the mist and wanted to continue to use his consciousness to explore that he realized that the operation of his consciousness became slow and stiff.
Fortunately, with the disappearance of the cold mist, Yuan Ming's soul quickly recovered, but the experience just now made him have a further understanding of the power of the white cold mist.
After Yuan Ming put away the ring, he looked up at the mural again. He suddenly found that because his right eye was broken, the boy in the last painting now had both eyes gouged out.
The whole mural looked even weirder!
He immediately realized that perhaps there was a ring hidden in the boy's left eye, but it had been taken away in advance?
At this thought, he thought of the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts. Tian Gui San Ren had not been here before, but he was able to get this magic weapon. Perhaps it was because someone took it out in advance.
Yuan Ming's heart trembled, and his mood, which had been slightly relaxed because he did not find any danger before, became nervous again.
Although this place seemed to be empty, it was full of weirdness. It was really not a place to stay for a long time.
He began to try to find the entrance and exit of the hall, but the surrounding walls and gates not only isolated his spiritual consciousness, but also could not be destroyed by magic weapons. As for the restrictions in front of the passage, they were composed of runes he had never seen before, and the style was very different from those he knew, and it was difficult to crack for a while.
Yuan Ming thought for a moment and found that he was trapped here and was helpless. There was no way for him to leave here.
However, soon, Yuan Ming remembered the second soul he left in Zuo Qinghui's body. Because he was only in the foundation-building stage, Yuan Ming did not let him come to the Soul Burial Abyss. Unexpectedly, it has become his hope now.
Yuan Ming immediately sat cross-legged and used his soul power to contact the second soul. Fortunately, although the surrounding walls isolated his consciousness, they did not block the connection between him and the second soul.

The web drama "I am Li You", adapted from the divine book "Struggle in the New Ming Dynasty" by Wang Yu's friend, the veteran history author Sui Qingfeng, was broadcast on Youku yesterday! Traveling through ancient times to become a son-in-law, copying poems to slap the face and fight against corrupt officials. The leading actor is Guan Yunpeng, the spokesperson for the son-in-law. The original author, director, and screenwriter are all veterans of Qidian, and all kinds of online literary stalks are played. I have watched the first few episodes. It is very good and I smiled knowingly many times. The poetry interpretation at the end of the film is a bit touching. It is rare to see pure male-oriented work adaptations in recent years. Everyone can go and have a look and show your support^^
