Chapter 83 Strange Object
But no matter what, he finally passed the assessment smoothly, and his previous efforts were not in vain.
Now there was only one last step left. All he had to do was find the seven-star soul-inducing lamp and shine its light to break the evil spell in his body and return to a normal life of cultivation. How could he not be excited about this?
Liang Yan turned around and looked around, only to see that he was currently at the entrance of a cave. Entering from this entrance, there is a narrow passage, winding and extending inward.
"The seven-star soul-inducing lamp should be in the cave, right? According to Senior Brother Zhuo, once I pass the test, there will be no obstacles. I have to speed up and find the treasure quickly." Liang Yan thought about it and immediately Step into the cave and walk along the winding passage.
The cave passage was really too long. Liang Yan walked through it for a stick of incense and still couldn't see the end exit, so he couldn't help but feel anxious.
What's even weirder is that as Liang Yan continues to delve deeper, a feeling of greed and desire faintly emerges in his heart, as if something is urging him to continue exploring inward.
However, his mind was still clear, and he just shook his head slightly and said, "Is it because my desire to survive is too strong, and now that my goal is about to be achieved, am I a little impatient?"
He used the mind-wandering technique a little to suppress the anxiety and desire in his heart. After walking deeper into the passage for half a stick of incense, I suddenly saw a light blue light flashing in front of me, seeming to be waving to it from a distance.
"arrive!"
Liang Yan felt happy, then accelerated his speed and ran forward.
His steps were like flying, and in a short time he had rushed dozens of feet away. He saw the exit of the passage in front of him, and the light blue stream of light was shining in from outside the hole.
Liang Yan quickly came to the entrance of the cave, looked outside, and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
I saw a huge white jade square outside, with a white jade statue in the middle of the square.
This statue is five feet high. It is sitting cross-legged on the ground at the moment. It is dressed in Confucian clothes and robes. It looks gentle and elegant without losing the air of an immortal.
He was holding a wine gourd upside down in his right hand. Clear water flowed out from the gourd's mouth, pulling out a slender stream of water in the air and dripping onto a piece of light blue light below.
There was something faintly flickering within the light blue light, but it was too far away at the moment and Liang Yan couldn't see it clearly. However, the clear water flowing out of the gourd contained vigorous spiritual energy, and Liang Yan could clearly feel it even from a distance of dozens of feet.
"This clear water spiritual energy is so abundant, it is probably several times better than the spiritual spring in the cave discovered by Sun Qianli, even more than ten times. No wonder the sect is so strict on the assessment of disciples of all branches. I didn't expect it to be like this here. A paradise in heaven." Liang Yan thought to himself.
"It's just that the man in Confucian clothes carved on the statue looks familiar to me. It seems that I have seen him somewhere. But I can't remember it for a while."
Liang Yan shook his head, suppressed all the doubts in his heart, jumped out of the cave entrance, and walked towards the white jade square.
He walked several hundred steps forward and finally saw clearly what was inside the blue light. It was actually three treasures suspended in mid-air.
One of them is an oil lamp with a simple and elegant shape, which is dragged in mid-air by a white jade stone plate. The flame on the wick is light blue, and there are seven little sparks floating on the flame, which vaguely match the number of Tiangang Beidou.
Liang Yan just glanced at the oil lamp for a few times, and then he felt his soul shake. The power of his soul seemed to be condensed a lot. He couldn't help but said with joy: "This seven-star soul-inducing lamp is indeed extraordinary!"
As he spoke, he looked to the side and saw a writing brush floating next to the oil lamp. The barrel of this writing brush was gray-brown, with a sharp edge, full and round. No one was holding the pen at this moment, and the brush was actually writing in mid-air by itself. Wherever the brush passed, a faint blue light was left behind, which was the word "Taihu".
"The seven-star soul-inducing lamp is already a rare treasure, but there is more than one treasure here. I wonder what kind of strange object is that high in the sky?"
Liang Yan said and looked up. Above the seven-star soul-inducing lamp and the strange writing brush, there was a layer of light mist, covering the treasure inside, leaving only a faint shadow.
Liang Yan's curiosity aroused and he walked several hundred steps forward and finally came to the foot of the scholar's statue. He looked up at the clouds and couldn't help but be surprised.
I saw that the shadowy and flashing thing in the clouds and mist turned out to be a huge book! No one was around at this moment, and the pages of the book were turning slowly, as if someone was reading.
If that's all it is, it wouldn't be surprising. After all, some treasures have spirits. Just like the writing brush before, they can also write on their own. The key point is that the cover and pages of this book are made of fine iron. They can be curled and turned like paper, just like an ordinary book.
And as the page of the iron book was turned, a fierce momentum rushed out of the book and shot high into the sky.
"Sword Qi!"
However, Liang Yan had basically never been exposed to any sword cultivators, nor had he ever fought with any sword cultivators. He also knew that the fierce momentum must be sword energy!
This sword energy was so sharp that it seemed to smash everything into pieces as it rushed high into the sky. However, the gourd held upside down by the scholar statue was facing the sky above the book. Every time the sword energy rushed out three feet into the air, it was scattered by the clear water left in the mouth of the gourd, and was instantly eliminated.
Liang Yan stared at the strange iron book, and the previously suppressed desire gradually resurfaced in his heart. An unspeakable desire kept persuading him to seize the iron book.
He took a deep breath, a faint blue light emitted from his left hand, a golden light emitted from his right hand, and then he clasped his hands together. The "Hunhun Gong" and the "Mind-Undetermined Method" are activated at the same time. The two colors of spiritual power slowly rotate in the body, and the mind gradually returns to clarity.
"Strange, what kind of thing is this, it can actually stir up evil thoughts in my heart! Besides, isn't this a place specially provided for the disciples of the sect who practice the secret arts of the soul, and improve the power of their skills? How come besides the seven-star soul-inducing lamp, there are This kind of treasure?"
Liang Yan's heart moved, and he felt something was wrong. He looked up at the huge jade statue again, and suddenly his heart suddenly suddenly thought of something, and he blurted out: "This is the founder of Yixing Pavilion, Zhenren Yixing!"
As soon as these words came out, Liang Yan suddenly felt alert, and he felt a sharp and sharp aura coming from behind and slashing towards him rapidly.
The breath was so fast that there was no time to avoid it. In panic, Liang Yan could only roll sideways to the ground beside him, and then he saw a rainbow flashing beside him.
With a pop, a piece of flesh and blood on Liang Yan's shoulder was cut off completely. He endured the excruciating pain and looked back.
"It's you!"
Liang Yan exclaimed in surprise.
