Chapter 994: Ancient Temple of the Goddess of Luo River
Deep in the Ghost Palace.
Gray air filled the void, nine figures were illusory, like ghosts, but emitting obscure and mysterious fluctuations.
Two of the figures had silver lines engraved on their foreheads, and when their eyes opened and closed, it seemed that endless death was surging.
"Tianpeng, Wuchang, and Shura are all dead!"
"According to the message before death, I can be sure that it was Gu Daoren who broke into the Nether Palace," said the Ghost Palace True Venerable in a cold voice without any fluctuations, "Go and check, what is his origin?"
"Brother Qingming, it's just a true realm, is it worth our attention?"
"The source of all laws will be closed soon, and then we will just capture him directly. What kind of splash can a junior make?"
The two venerables asked in confusion.
"This person is not simple. Have you ever seen a true realm that can comprehend the way of living beings in just 100,000 years, reach the realm of heaven, and control a Venerable-level poisonous insect?"
"I still remember that in the battle of the vortex dragon vortex, the old ghost Huang Liang swore that Taoist Gu would not die, but it was hard to say whether Venerable Mojiang was dead or alive."
"Find out the origin of this person, and there must be no accidents with the ghost fragments."
The True Venerable of the Ghost Mansion said repeatedly.
"We understand!"
The seven Venerables left one after another.
...
Two months later.
The Black Water Lake surged, and the green figure stepped out from the bottom of the lake, but the surrounding Venerable-level beasts turned a blind eye.
"Next, it's time to go to the Ancient Temple of Luoshen."
The escape light flashed.
From the Ice Crack Plain to the Ancient Temple of Luoshen, it is a full 14 million miles. If it were Guchang Patriarch or the old man Guanshu, it would take at least five or six years.
The green figure took only two days.
…
In the depths of the snow, a dilapidated ancient temple stood in the depths of the snow valley. The temple was small, and the gate tower was broken, making a creaking sound in the strong wind.
Such an ordinary temple made Gu Xiuyun frown, and his face was particularly solemn.
The Luoshen Ancient Temple was ranked in the top 20 in the entire Wanfa Source Realm in terms of danger. There were countless practitioners who died in the temple. Almost every time they went to the Source Realm, there would be peak Tianxing Realm practitioners who were not afraid of life and death and rushed here.
This temple was also the ultimate goal of Minghuang to enter the Source Realm.
The green figure flicked his sleeves, and the Luoyin Patriarch and Jinchen Demon King appeared out of thin air. The two were practicing with their eyes closed. Sensing the changes around them, they quickly opened their eyes and observed the surroundings.
"Is this the Luoshen Ancient Temple?"
Jinchen Demon King was surprised when he saw the dilapidated temple.
"Where are Fellow Daoist Guchang and Fellow Daoist Guanshu?"
The Luoyin Patriarch looked around and frowned slightly.
"They are dead," Gu Xiuyun explained, "On the way to the Luoshen Ancient Temple, we encountered a Venerable-level poisonous insect. The two Taoists suffered greatly, and I also experienced life and death to save my life."
"Venerable-level poisonous insect?!"
The Luoyin Patriarch was a little confused, "Are there other creatures in the Source Realm?"
"That poisonous insect came from the Black Insect Country. The Extreme Cold Sect may not have any records of this. You will know after you go out."
Gu Xiuyun continued, "This beast is a little different from ordinary beasts. Not only is it extremely intelligent, but it is also cruel by nature. Now it is killing people in the Source Realm. Many Taoists have been killed."
Hearing this, the two ninth-grade ancestors took a breath of cold air at the same time.
A Venerable-level insect beast with wisdom is much more difficult to deal with than an ordinary beast.
Thinking of this, they secretly rejoiced in their hearts that they were lucky to follow Gu Daoren
If they walked alone outside the Source Realm, or like Gu Chang and Guan Shu, they would look for opportunities everywhere.
I'm afraid it has turned into a pile of bones now.
As he spoke, Gu Xiuyun stepped forward and walked towards the gate of the temple.
The two ancestors hurriedly followed.
Whoosh!
A cold wind blew, and three figures passed through the gate and walked into the temple, but for some reason, as soon as they stepped over the threshold, the three of them disappeared in unison, as if they had entered another space.
...
The desolate land was almost dry.
A turbid river twisted and turned, dividing the land into sixteen parts. On each piece of land, there was a ten-thousand-foot-high temple, towering between heaven and earth.
"Are these all the ancient temples of Luoshen?"
Looking at the palace in the distance, the Luoyin ancestor was surprised. He had always thought that there was only one ancient temple of Luoshen.
"Yes, there are sixteen temples, and each temple has a treasure," Gu Xiuyun nodded, "According to the meaning of Huangliang Zhenzun and Wan Gu Zhenzun, we can only choose one temple. Whether it succeeds or not, we will be driven out within three months."
Sixteen temples, five of which have dimmed, and the surrounding land has sunk a bit, as if it is about to be submerged by the river.
Only the other eleven are still intact.
This scene is exactly the same as the description of the Samsara Ancient Temple. In billions of years, only five people have successfully taken out the treasure and brought it back to the endless void.
"Let's go!"
The three chose the nearest ancient temple and walked into it.
Just after passing through the palace gate, a white jade statue appeared in front of them. The white jade was crystal clear, and the carved woman was particularly moving, like a fairy descending to the earth.
The moment they saw the statue, Jinchen Yaohuang and Luoyin Patriarch's eyes froze, and they actually showed an obsessive state.
Not only them, but even Gu Xiuyun was affected by the statue. Fortunately, the Taoist heart of the fate practitioner was stable enough, and it only took a moment to regain his calm.
"This is the legendary statue of the Goddess of Luo River. No wonder the Eternal True Venerable repeatedly warned us not to look directly at the statue."
Gu Xiuyun took a deep breath, and the Taoism filled his body, turning into the sound of thunder, awakening the two ancestors from their obsession.
"What happened to me just now?" Jin Chen Demon Emperor looked confused.
"I seem to see a woman who is extremely beautiful. She is simply incomparable. There is no one more beautiful than her in the entire endless void."
Patriarch Luoyin murmured to himself.
"What you two saw is the statue of Luo Shen." Gu Xiuyun's palms filled with true energy, forming a black wall, blocking the white jade statue. "According to the Ancient Palace of Reincarnation, Luo Shen is at least a Realm Master, and he walks the path of charm. Even if A statue is not something we can afford.”
"The statue of the Goddess of Luo...it turns out to be the Goddess of Luo."
Jinchen Demon Emperor and Patriarch Luoyin looked at each other with extremely complicated expressions.
Their Taoist hearts were not firm enough and were still affected. Gu Xiuyun shook his head slightly. It seemed that it would be difficult for the two Patriarchs to regain their consciousness in a short period of time.
"We have limited time. If we want to get the treasure, we must complete the ancient temple test. These tests are of great benefit to the true artistic conception. You two can also give it a try. I heard that the first two tests are not life-threatening. Even if you fail, Just being sent out of the ancient temple.”
Gu Xiuyun said as he walked towards the front hall.
Before entering the source world, the Eternal True Lord had already described the situation in the ancient temple in detail. If you want to get the treasures in the deepest part of the ancient temple, you must pass six levels.
The first level is called worshiping gods.
In the front hall, a gray statue is filled with fog. There are three futons placed under the statue. The two on the left and right are shabby, and the one in the middle is as new as ever.
The moment you enter the temple, the statue
A puppet emerged from the side. It looked no different from a human old man, except that its two eyes emitted white light.
"Someone is here again, a latecomer, entering the temple to worship the gods. You should know this rule."
The old man glanced at Jin Chen and Luoyin with disdain on his face, but when he looked at Gu Xiuyun, he showed a solemn expression.
The old man saw clearly the scene of the three people walking into the palace gate. He could get rid of the influence of the Luo Shen statue in an instant, which even the Three Difficulties Venerables couldn't do. It can be seen that Gu Xiuyun's Taoist will is no less than that of the True Venerable. .
"Choose a futon and kneel down, then you can go to the apse."
"The futon on the left is for Taoism, the futon on the right is for immortality, and the one in the middle... I advise you not to choose, you can't bear it."
"Thank you, senior, for your advice." Gu Xiuyun nodded slightly.
In the ancient Luoshen Temple, the first two levels are more like opportunities than tests. Luoshen is a god, and it is a rule to enter the temple to worship the god.
When you worship a god, you naturally ask for something, but you also have to offer something.
This is similar to the gods in the world of Tianjipan, except that compared to the God King and God Lord, Luo Shen's strength is countless times stronger, at least reaching the level of World Master, or even a higher level.
"Taofa?"
"Immortality?"
Demon King Jinchen and Patriarch Luoyin looked surprised and looked at each other. One walked to the left and the other to the right.
puff!
His knees touched the futon, and invisible power enveloped his whole body. In an instant, Patriarch Luoyin saw the direction of a path to immortality, while Jinchen Demon Emperor felt the end of the rules of the avenue.
"Senior, I wonder what the futon in the middle is asking for?" Gu Xiuyun asked.
When the Eternal True Master narrated it, he only mentioned the first two levels in one or two sentences without explaining them in detail. Gu Xiuyun never asked why he should care since his life was not in danger.
But after hearing what the old man said, the futon in the middle was very special, and he suddenly became interested.
"Do you want to choose this?" The white-haired old man narrowed his eyes, "I actually don't know what the futon in the middle is asking for, but I know that since the ancient Luoshen Temple was established, only three people have knelt on the futon and kept it. Life, those three people are not from the Holy Realm of Reincarnation, you’d better give up.”
"The Holy World of Reincarnation?"
A strange color flashed in Gu Xiuyun's eyes, "I heard from my seniors that the endless void is called the Holy World of Samsara?"
"That's right." The old man didn't mean to hide anything. "You don't think Luo Shen has fallen, do you?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you that Luo Shen is also at the pinnacle of existence in the entire infinite world. He is only half a step weaker than the one who established the Source of Ten Thousand Dharma Realm. Worshiping Luo Shen is a great opportunity for you. How many venerables want to worship you? no chance."
"I see."
Gu Xiuyun secretly breathed in.
The old man's words eliminated a lot of doubts in his heart. Just as the Ancient Palace of Samsara said, the source world of all laws comes from a supreme being, and that strong man left a legacy in the endless void.
It is precisely because of this that Taoism has flourished to such an extent in Endless Void in just 400 million years.
"Kneel down quickly!"
The old man said impatiently, "Three months is a short time. It is not easy for you to take away the Taoist Crystal."
Gu Xiuyun glanced at both sides.
Demon King Jinchen and Patriarch Luoyin had already stood up, but their expressions were dull, as if they had fallen into an epiphany.
"Which one to choose?"
Gu Xiuyun frowned, the futons on the left and right were not to his liking, and the futon in the middle seemed to contain endless dangers.
After a long silence, he walked to the futon in the middle, bent down and knelt down.
"Junior, you are crazy!"
The old man looked shocked.
