...For one reason or another, more than twenty monks in the early stage of Nascent Soul did not continue to move forward with their fellow disciples, but scattered together. The Houtu Pagoda is divided into nine realms, and opportunities are everywhere...
Half an hour later, a lonely figure appeared in front of the whirlwind. It was Lin Yi who came from a hundred miles away.
The tiny grains of sand came with the swift and violent wind and slipped past Lin Yi's sides before they reached him. After looking at the slightly flashing cloud robe, he looked up five hundred feet away.
There are clouds in the map of the fairyland, and the wind and sand reach the sky. The outer cover is strong wind, and there is the universe inside, forming a realm of its own. Most of the monks from various schools in Jiuzhou used their own methods to get into this place. The Weaver Girl looks weak, but she is a bit brave. After she persuaded the two sisters to retreat, she had to undergo a life-and-death experience with several senior brothers...
Before, although Lin Yi was hiding aside, he was still aware of the movements of the group of people. I've gone astray, or I've missed something. Otherwise, why can't we see those nine experts? The one who originally ran in front may now be at the end...
Lin Yi no longer hesitated, dragon armor covered his body. As the magic power circulated, a layer of flowing brilliance flashed over the cloud robe, covering it from beginning to end. Looking ahead again, he moved his feet and ran over.
In just an instant, the wild sand all over the sky was like a volley of thousands of arrows, rolling in with a sharp and powerful force. Lin Yi's castration continued unabated, and his figure suddenly flashed and disappeared into the storm...
But for a moment, the scene in front of him changed, and Lin Yi suddenly stopped his steps. The light of the cloud robe on his body was a little dim, with traces of wind and frost on it, and a fine layer of sand dust fell on it. As he shook his sleeves, the cloud robe immediately returned to its old appearance, spotless.
The obstacle of wind and sand is easy to pass, but the strong wind that is two or three feet wide is mixed with it, which makes people dare not be careless. But just now, after a deliberate attempt, the cloud robe made by Zhi Niang using dragon silk showed extraordinary. That silk clothes can protect you from the strong wind, which is evident from this...
The sound of wind could be heard faintly, his energy was slightly disordered, and the situation all around was very different. Lin Yi turned around and looked around. Behind him, a wall of khaki sand was like the wall of a well, but it kept spinning crazily and surrounded a strange place.
Dozens of feet away, towering is a Tongtian Grand Hall that covers an area of several hundred feet. It seems to be piled up with sand and stones. It is all earthy yellow and has no edges or corners. However, it is simple, solemn and powerful. It just rises from the ground and makes people look up. Its thousand-foot-high summit is shrouded in clouds and mist, making it difficult to discern clues...
With a slightly stunned look on his face, Lin Yi focused his gaze directly in front of him. The main entrance of the khaki hall was open, but there was no one around. And moving forward from this point, there is no restriction, but there is a faint smell of blood...
Lin Yi frowned slightly, and then he wanted to move forward, but then looked at the upper and lower sides of the palace door. There are three characters embedded in the stone plaque above the lintel: Mingyuan Hall. There are also two lines of writing on the left and right sides of the gate: One sand turns chaos into five elements, and the nine realms merge into one and connect to Taiyuan.
After reciting those two sentences silently several times, Lin Yi still couldn't understand them. His heart suddenly moved and he was thoughtful. In the illusion of the two realms of life and death, the nine realms of Taoism mentioned by the old man are somewhat coincident with the nine realms of the Hou Tu Pagoda.
The realm of Tao returns to simplicity, obeys the secular world, suddenly understands, blends with things, and feels contented. These five realms are like the realm of the five luminaries of the Hou Tu Pagoda. Only when the spirit becomes enlightened and blends into nature can it forget about life and death and reach the mystical realm, and can it also realize the realm of Taiyuan, nothingness, Taiji and Wuji...
After standing there and thinking for a moment, Lin Yi felt more and more that his guess was reasonable. At first, he was still a little confused about the so-called Nine Transformations, but now he had a little more understanding.
However, when Lin Yi saw the two sentences beside the door, he became confused again. The nine realms are united and connected to Taiyuan? Why is it not that the nine worlds are united into Tai Chi, or the realm of Wuji... Could it be, could it be...?
Confused for a moment, Lin Yi secretly shook his head. This is not the time to ponder hard. Many doubts can only be left to be pondered over in the future. And finding the Taiyuan Realm from this hall is the most important thing right now.
Following a thought in his mind, Lin Yi tapped his foot lightly and arrived in front of the palace gate as quietly as a fallen leaf. After a short pause, he ducked into the hall. Following what he saw before him, he looked slightly stunned.
The light and shadow in the main hall are dim but quite spacious, surrounded by a circle of vacant stone chambers. In the middle of the hall, which is several hundred feet in diameter, half a stone staircase hangs strangely. It is about three feet wide, and the upper end leads directly to the second floor of the 100-foot-high hall, but the lower end is three feet above the ground. But lying on the flat floor tiles next to this place was a monk who had been dead for a long time.
Judging from the clothes of the corpse and the condition of the fatal spot, the person who died at the hands of his colleagues should be a monk from Baianmen. Not far away, there were several traces of mana burning. No need to think too much, not one person died here. And this unlucky man dumped his body here, but no one took it away! In this way, the situation at that time was very critical...
Lin Yi did not move forward in a hurry, but walked towards the surrounding stone chambers and looked at them one by one. They are all two or three feet in size. They are clearly quiet rooms, but they are empty after people leave! However, it would be unbelievable if this place is really a retreat for immortals. Without him, just because the surroundings are too simple...
After walking for half a circle, he found nothing unusual, and then Lin Yi turned towards the stone staircase. When he got close to the corpse, he found a talisman from the Qiankun Ring.
Looking at the thing in his hand, Lin Yishen was thoughtful. If it weren't for the extremely large number of talismans he kept with him, it would be really difficult to find such a low-level talisman. And my magic power can't be separated from the body three feet, so if I want to burn the corpses on the ground, I have to use something...
Perhaps thinking of something, Lin Yi put away the talisman and flicked out a wisp of baby fire with his fingers. The flame suddenly appeared and hovered three feet away from the body. He quickly shot out a series of spells with both hands. In the next moment, his fingers interlocked to form a talisman, and he gently moved forward.
The wisp of baby fire flew three feet away and then slowed down. But the talisman was neglected, and under the blessing of magic power, the flames jumped suddenly.
Seeing this, Lin Yi stretched out his finger and tapped it lightly. The baby fire then exploded and turned into a tiny dragon shape. It broke free and ran away, and suddenly it pounced on the dead body on the ground...
The remains of the Bian'anmen disciples on the ground were reduced to ashes, and the flame between Lin Yi's fingers was still lingering flexibly. After a moment, he put away the baby fire and raised the corners of his mouth slightly. It is still unclear whether the "Minghuo Seal Jue" can really control the fire of the world. However, it is quite surprising that it is not subject to restrictions.
Lin Yi turned to the stone staircase three feet above the ground and jumped up. When it landed on the suspended stone steps, it felt very stable under its feet. After he stepped on it a little harder and found nothing unusual, he slowly walked up.
After drinking tea, Lin Yi followed the three-foot-wide and one-hundred-foot-long stone staircase to the second floor of Mingyuan Hall. What caught the eye were a few fluorite embedded in the stone wall, but the surroundings were still dim.
After waiting for a moment, Lin Yi left the stone staircase behind him and stopped to watch in a corner of the second-floor hall. The size of this place should be similar to the main hall on the first floor, but it is separated by thick stone walls, making it appear cramped and weird. He carefully moved a few steps and walked between two stone walls.
In front of you is like a narrow mountain stream that is a hundred feet high and two feet wide. It goes without a trace, but on the mountain walls on the left and right sides, there are one or two stone rooms...
Taking two steps back, Lin Yi turned elsewhere. After a moment, he returned to the same place, feeling puzzled. The area he was in was only one to twenty feet in diameter, but there were three intersections, all of which were identical 'mountain streams'.
It is simple and easy to see. If you want to find the stone stairs leading to the upper level, you must choose one of these three intersections. What will happen if we take the wrong path?
While thinking about it, Lin Yi stretched out his hand to grab his chest. Suddenly realizing that there was no beard under his chin, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
After pretending to be someone else for so long, you gradually forget what you should look like!
With phantom pupils flashing in his eyes, Lin kept running between two stone walls...
After burning the incense, Lin Yi emerged from between the other two stone walls. Seeing that the place in front of him was extremely familiar, he realized that he was back where he was just now, and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly. Being willful, it is inevitable to turn back.
Without hesitation, Lin Yi turned around and stepped into the third 'mountain stream'. Every few feet away, a stone room will appear on both sides, empty and empty. Four or fifty feet forward, following the direction of the stone wall and turning a corner, Lin Yi stopped. Exactly the same situation as before, there were three intersections again.
Not wanting to make the same mistake again, Lin Yi thought to himself. Under the phantom eyes, the existence of restrictions cannot be seen; blocked by the stone wall, it is difficult for spiritual consciousness to reach far. It's really hard to decide where to go. And the unfamiliar Qi movement here is disordered, and it is clear that someone is passing through here...
Lin Yi's expression changed, and he raised his feet and walked forward. Not more than twenty feet away, he suddenly stopped in front of a stone room and turned silent.
There was a person sitting cross-legged in the stone room, slowly opening his eyes. Suddenly someone appeared, startling him, and then he said in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Lin, it's you..."
The stone room here looks like a simple cave, with a thin middle-aged man sitting in a place two or three feet in size. There were injuries on his body, and his face looked tired. When he opened his mouth to speak, there was a faint yin that lingered between his brows.
Lin Yi nodded silently and remained silent. Seeing that the other party was trying to get up, he waved his hand. The middle-aged man's expression softened, and he raised his hands and said, "I am Shen Shanzi of the Six Gods Sect. I have met fellow Taoist Lin..."
Lin Yi was not surprised when the other party recognized him. This man named Shen Shanzi once appeared in the crowd of Liushenmen. Although his words were gloomy, he was not a cunning person.
Lin Yi suddenly took two steps forward and sat down in the quiet room. Shen Shanzi's face changed slightly, but he turned a blind eye and asked casually: "Why do fellow Taoists look like this? You might as well explain the previous situation..." Seeing his calm and calm expression, the other party secretly breathed a sigh of relief. , said with emotion: "My fellow Taoist has a very powerful killing power, which is frightening..."
Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly. Shen Shanzi stared blankly at the uninvited guest who was about a foot away, then gave a wry smile and said, "It's hard to imagine that fellow Taoist Lin is such an easy-going person. Forget it! Just listen to me..."
