Chapter 508 The Strange ‘Power of Incense’

This stone door is also about a hundred feet high and several dozen feet wide.

The two huge black stones that were tightly closed were glowing with an oppressive light, and there were ancient and obscure patterns carved on them.

This stone door was not like the prison door, which had a long passage of dim light, but there was a light curtain that blocked the forbidden area.

Yang Che was carefully investigating it with his spiritual sense, when he suddenly heard the elder Yu Ce say:

"Junior Brother Yang, I knew about the existence of the Prison Gate Holy Land from the day I took over the inheritance jade slip from the previous elder of our sect. It is behind this stone door. However, I have tried countless methods for more than a thousand years since I took over as the elder of our sect, but I couldn't open this door. From then on, this place became my "heart barrier."

Yu Ce's old voice was full of sadness and helplessness.

Yang Che looked at the thin old man in plain robes in front of him, and found that after he finished speaking, a slight "death aura" emanated from his body.

This is a sign that his life is about to end!

At this moment, Yang Che seemed to understand why the great perfection cultivator in front of him would use such a pleading tone to him.

With his lifespan coming to an end and the "mental barrier", the elder was already a little less confident about breaking through the spirit transformation and advancing to the refining void.

After the elder Yu Ce finished speaking, he walked to the forbidden light curtain.

"Junior Brother Yang, didn't you wonder why you had to get the consent of half of the cultivators of the sect with the Nascent Soul and above to become the elder in power? You will know when you come and see."

Yang Che's heart moved when he heard this, and he quickly came to the forbidden light curtain.

After carefully scanning it several times with his spiritual sense, Yang Che was surprised to find that the spiritual power fluctuations in this restriction seemed to be very different from all the restrictions he had seen before.

Yu Ce smiled and said, "Put your prison gate identity token on it and see."

Yang Che took out the prison gate token and stuck it on the forbidden light curtain as he said.

Suddenly, the special spiritual power fluctuations suddenly seemed to be "excited" and wrapped Yang Che's prison gate token in an instant.

Yang Che immediately sensed clearly that a special 'weak power' was sucked out of the order.

"What is this...?"

Yang Che was shocked and secretly alert.

Yu Ce said quickly: "Don't worry, Junior Brother Yang. This is the 'incense power' unique to my prison."

"Incense power?"

Yang Che was surprised when he heard it for the first time.

The elder Yu Ce immediately explained to Yang Che what the 'incense power' was.

After hearing it, Yang Che understood it immediately.

He suddenly thought of the time when he was a child in the village, every household would burn incense and light candles not only during festivals, but also during daily events, praying for the blessings of the gods.

And this spiritual vision was transmitted in the form of burning incense, and the strange power generated was the original 'incense power'.

However, in the world of cultivating immortals, the incense power became a kind of power similar to 'worship and belief'.

For example, the seven elders in power, such as the great elder Yu Ce, are like "immortals" in the hearts of all the low-level disciples of the prison gate. These disciples worship and believe in them devoutly from the heart for a long time, and they will generate "incense power".

This is an extremely strange and magical power.

Those who are worshipped and believed can choose to absorb this incense power themselves, or give it to others to absorb.

If Yang Che wants to become the eighth elder in power, he must be truly recognized by half of the people in the sect who have the cultivation level of Yuanying and above, so that he can truly obtain the "incense power".

If Yang Che is allowed to become the eighth elder just by the will of a few elders in power, then if there are too many people in the sect who resist him in their hearts, this incense power will not be obtained.

And the light curtain of blocking the special spiritual power fluctuation in front of him requires the disciples of the prison gate to have real "incense power" to enter and pass through.

After Yang Che figured out the reason, he suddenly understood why the more he did as the Prison Envoy, the more the powerful elders in the sect valued him.

Sure enough, in the final analysis, it was still about benefits.

Fortunately, whether it was being the Prison Envoy or the current incense power, Yang Che was also a beneficiary, the only difference was how much he benefited.

Yang Che did not dwell on this, and soon he and the elder passed through the forbidden light curtain and floated in front of the black stone door.

"Junior Brother Yang, according to the jade slips passed down by the sect, there are more than one stone door like this. However, my prison gate had a crisis of extermination three thousand years ago, and since that crisis, no one has been able to find other stone doors. And this one in front of me, I have tried every method, but I can't open it."

The elder Yu Ce stared at the black stone door, with an extremely strong unwillingness in his eyes.

He had cultivated for more than two thousand years, and he had reached the state of great perfection of the transformation of the spirit hundreds of years ago.

It seemed that if he took one more small step forward, he would be able to cross this realm and enter the realm of ‘refining emptiness’ that all the gods dreamed of.

However, he had been trying for hundreds of years to take this small step, but he still could not take even an inch.

Yang Che was also staring at the black stone door at this time.

Except for the huge grooves on the door for placing the five-element star soul crystals and the different strange patterns, it was no different from the prison door.

So Yang Che suddenly had a very bold guess in his mind.

Behind this door, perhaps it is also the way to a higher realm of cultivation.

Or, is the holy land of the prison door a small world?

Yang Che's eyes condensed slightly.

He was just guessing, but because he had seen the existence of the ‘prison door’, he was more inclined to the former.

After listening to the words of the elder, Yang Che also felt incredible.

It is indeed incredible that a cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of the Transformation Realm could not open a stone door after trying all methods.

Yang Che's eyes swept back and forth over the strange patterns on the black stone door.

These obscure, difficult and strange patterns were something Yang Che had never seen before.

But he inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.

This sense of familiarity came from the 'ancient words and patterns' on the mysterious stone tablet he had seen in the ancient sand sea.

He still remembered the tall, water-green long skirt, pure and lovely woman named 'Yang Xiaoqian' he met in the 'Yuanfang Market' of the Dark Abyss City.

This woman was quite talented in ancient words and had deciphered almost all the ancient words and patterns on the stone tablet.

However, the woman had also stated on the jade slip given to him by the Five Elements Hall of the Five Elements in the ancient ruins that the ancient words and patterns were definitely not just those on the stone tablet.

"Could it be that the patterns on this stone door are the ancient words and patterns other than the stone pieces that Miss Xiaoqian mentioned?"

When Yang Che thought of this, an idea suddenly came to his mind.

He swept his consciousness and memorized all the patterns on the stone door. Then, the 'ancient demon clone' in the magic stone space immediately copied them and engraved them on a blank jade slip, and then quickly handed the jade slip to the ancient artifact spirit Xiao Gu.
