Chapter 241 Break the Ban and Climb the Mountain!
Boom! Boom!
In the secret realm of Yanghun Temple, loud noises continued to resound, mixed with the fierce roars of the beasts.
"Roar!"
The entire main peak of the secret realm began to tremble under its fierce impact, and a terrifying aura overflowed. A series of attacking spiritual lights began to counterattack from the restrictions on the mountain.
Buzz!
This is a white snake without scales, but it has two buffalo horns on its head, which contains great power.
Its red eyes stared at the boulder on the main peak, just because on the boulder, there was a bowl of blood and several red crystals dug out from the body of the beast.
These things are very attractive to the horned white snake. Even though the restrictions on the mountain are extremely dangerous, it is fearless and does not care at all, and still perseveres in launching attacks.
At this time, the horned white snake was covered with hideous wounds. The spiritual power almost cut it into two pieces.
"Hiss!"
The fatally wounded white snake became extremely crazy and violent at this moment. It finally used all its strength and crashed into the boulder.
Bang!
The boulder with the restriction was broken into pieces in an instant, and a large amount of spiritual light burst out, as if it was raining light.
Below the mountain, Li Qing, who had been hiding, came out with excitement.
"It took the lives of five strange beasts to finally blast a fatal gap in the restriction here."
After the voice fell, Li Qing climbed up the mountain step by step and collected the body of the white snake first.
These strange beasts underwent a transformation after absorbing spiritual energy, and some of the materials on their bodies turned out to be spiritual materials that can be used to refine tools, which contained abundant spirituality.
However, the evil spirit contained in it is quite strong, far stronger than the evil spirit contained in ordinary monster materials, and it must be removed with the most rigid and yang power.
After taking away the white snake, a huge rock that was previously across the hillside has disappeared, leaving only some scattered broken stones remaining in the original place.
The bowl of blood just now also spilled out and splashed on several red crystals.
Li Qing, who was about to take away the red crystals, suddenly stopped.
"Huh?"
Those red crystals stained with blood seemed to have less evil spirits, and the impact on the mind seemed to be much less.
"Could it be that blood can suppress the red moon secret power contained in these red crystals, and this is why those beasts are so eager for blood food?"
Li Qing suddenly thought of a lot of things, such as those who turned to the red moon secret power in the polar night world also needed mortals to contribute blood to them to maintain their own state and avoid the problem of losing control.
"Blood is also known as the essence of human life, which contains a person's life essence. This is the most fundamental thing."
"Blood can drive away the evil spirit in the secret power of the red moon, which is not surprising."
Soon, Li Qing thought of Fan Tong's strong desire to devour these red crystals.
It was just because of various considerations that Li Qing did not give Fan Tong the red crystals because he was worried that Fan Tong's mind would be affected.
The Eagle Thief also obtained this red crystal before, and the Sky-Splitting Eagle raised by the Demon Eagle Guest also had an extremely strong desire to devour the red crystals.
"It seems that this thing has a great temptation for monsters. Maybe we can try to wash the red crystals with blood, drive away the evil spirits that affect the mind, and then give it to the monsters to swallow."
Li Qing's eyes flashed once or twice, and he had an idea to study it carefully.
Now he has a lot of red crystals on hand, plus the white snake that just died, he now has six red crystals on hand.
"Let's go up the mountain to break the restrictions first, and then study the role of these red crystals."
As he said, Li Qing continued to climb the mountain. He stood at the boulder that was originally blocked halfway up the mountain.
Many restrictions were set here before, and it was also a critical node.
After this place was destroyed, Li Qing could use what he had learned to gradually dissolve the restrictions in the mountain, thus opening a safe path to the main peak Taoist temple!
"Sure enough, a large area of restrictions around it also became dim, and the power was not obvious. You can try to climb the mountain."
After the voice fell, Li Qing still took out the defensive magic weapon, which was for insurance, fearing that something unexpected would happen.
With the protection of the magic weapon, Li Qing immediately took action. He began to dismantle the restrictions in the mountain. With his knowledge of "True Solution of Restrictions" after several years of seclusion in the secret realm, it was not a problem to do this.
With the successful removal of the first restriction, the following actions became very smooth, and Li Qing patiently spent time here.
After all, it was a mountain guarding restriction set up by a foundation-building cultivator. Li Qing could not be careless. He took every step steadily and did not dare to be impatient.
As time went by, the restrictions on the main peak were dismantled and dissolved by various means, and Li Qing's figure was getting closer and closer to the Taoist temple building on the top of the main peak.
However, the closer he got, the slower Li Qing's movements became. Only after he was sure that everything was safe, he would step forward.
In this way, two months passed.
With the removal of the last restriction, a safe path from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain was completely formed!
After completing all this, Li Qing was almost exhausted. He kept panting, and his spirit, which had been tense for so long, could finally relax for a while.
"I did it. It seems that my original guess was correct. The huge rock halfway up the mountain is indeed a very critical node in breaking the restriction."
"The sacrifice of five powerful beasts is not in vain. It finally fulfilled me."
After finishing his words, Li Qing took a step forward and officially entered this Taoist temple that had been silent for tens of thousands of years.
The architectural layout inside is not very complicated, but rather simple. There is an incense burner placed in front of a main hall, and two door pillars support a door plaque.
Nourish the soul!
Three large characters with strong ancient meanings were imprinted on the door plaque. When he saw these three large characters, Li Qing's mind seemed to calm down a lot.
It is indeed an ancient Taoist temple that specializes in cultivating spiritual consciousness. Even the inscriptions have the effect of soothing the mind.
"Although there are no other restrictions inside, you still have to be careful. Why is such a Taoist temple for cultivating immortals suddenly empty?"
Walking into the main hall, it was very empty. Apart from a few futons for meditation, there were only a few small cauldrons for burning incense.
Of course, after so many years, the incense in the cauldron has long been extinguished, leaving only a cauldron of incense ashes.
What surprised Li Qing the most was that there were no memorial tablets or statues in this main hall, only a stone bell erected here.
Several incense cauldrons are also facing this huge stone bell, and it seems that it is the object of worship at the Nourishing Soul Temple.
Li Qing didn't dare to move. He squatted down and touched the meditating futon with his hand.
Uh-huh!
I saw only a corner of the futon, as fragile as powder. After tens of thousands of years, it has been completely weathered.
"It can be seen that it is a futon made of branches of some kind of spiritual wood. Unfortunately, the spirituality has been lost and only ashes are left."
Standing up, Li Qing walked towards the back of the main hall.
He was not very interested in exploring this soul-nurturing temple, nor did he want to delve into why it suddenly died. He didn't even have time to take away the star grass in the mountain peak of the medicine field.
Li Qing's purpose is very simple and pure. He only came here for the legendary secret treasure that can nourish the soul-the soul-nurturing bell!
Of course, it would be best if we could still find some inheritance from Taoist temples.
Passing through the main hall, in the backyard of the Nourishing Soul Temple, there are long-dead pines planted, and even the leaves have become extremely gray and dim.
To the left of the backyard are rows of wooden houses, presumably the living quarters of the monks in the Taoist temple.
On the right is a dry well and attic, which have obviously been in decline for a long time.
At the end of the backyard, there is a towering octagonal stone tower standing quietly, which looks extremely extraordinary.
The tower body is divided into six floors, and each corner is wrapped with unknown spiritual gold chains. However, after tens of thousands of years, the vicissitudes of life, and the spirituality of these spiritual golds have been lost.
"Where is this inherited secret treasure like the Soul-nurturing Bell?"
With full of doubts, Li Qing first walked around the rows of wooden houses.
The wooden house that had been decaying for a long time could not withstand any touch. It collapsed immediately at the slightest movement.
Dust was flying all over the sky. In the ruins of the wooden house, Li Qing tried to find something useful.
Unfortunately, even the objects in the wooden house disappeared over time, and the soul-nourishing bell was not among them.
Li Qing even doubted that after such a long time, even the soul-raising bell would be useless.
If this is the case, then the entire Taoist temple has nothing of value.
In the end, Li Qing gave up exploring these rows of wooden houses and suddenly came to the right side of the backyard.
There is a dry well here, and behind the dry well is a long-abandoned attic.
Fortunately, the attic is still solid and will still stand even after tens of thousands of years.
The attic has two floors. The books, scriptures, etc. placed on the first floor have all returned to dust and their contents cannot be checked.
When we got to the second floor, we saw jade slips hanging on the iron shelves!
What can last for tens of thousands of years? It is naturally a jade stone that was raised by nature!
After seeing these jade slips, Li Qing's heart was pounding, and he quickly stepped forward to pick up a jade slip, and then injected mana into it, preparing to obtain its contents.
But soon, these excited moods dissipated a lot.
This is a secret technique of spiritual consciousness, which can condense one's own spiritual consciousness to attack the enemy.
Of course, it's not that Li Qing dislikes secret arts, but the content in the jade slips is quite incomplete, and the recorded information is only a few words, which is impossible to practice and understand.
"It's a pity that Gu Ming also used a secret technique of divine consciousness at the beginning, but later he didn't find the corresponding method in his storage bag. Otherwise, divine consciousness can become a trump card in the future."
Li Qing put down the jade slip with some regret. Although the jade slip did not dissipate with time, the inheritance recorded in it could not withstand the test of time.
But Li Qing didn't want to give up so easily. He picked up a jade slip again and began to check one by one, hoping to find some exceptions.
"Star Soul Pill Recipe, main medicine: Tianxingcao, Xueqingzhizhi"
Obviously, this elixir is related to the divine soul and can definitely increase the strength of the divine consciousness. Unfortunately, it is also incomplete.
At this moment, Li Qing felt that his heart was bleeding.
"So many precious inheritances are going to be completely buried in the dust of history."
