Chapter 1737 Circular Martial Arts Arena
After crossing the collapsed courtyard wall and walking further in, there is a martial arts arena.
A sect usually has several martial arts arenas, especially large sects, where the area and functions of different martial arts arenas are slightly different.
For example, in Tianjue Palace, the largest martial arts arena is for newcomers, so that they can correct their postures.
The martial arts arena is usually paved with stone slabs to avoid dust. Basically, any sect with a little background will have some uneven martial arts arena, which is caused by years of practice.
When everyone entered this flat land, they also found pits on the floor that looked like footprints. These were usually left by the disciples squatting in horse stance for many years.
Ning Xian'er is quite experienced in this regard. She judged the marks on several stone slabs and believed that this sect may have existed for about three or four hundred years, and it is also a sect with a lot of historical heritage.
Judging from the scale of the martial arts arena, this sect may have thousands of people at most.
Why didn't such a big sect leave any historical records?
This is normal. Even if the Tianjue Palace, which is now in its heyday, is destroyed now, no one will know about it in thousands of years.
What's more, this sect is still in a secret place. It is extremely hidden, and there is no rumor in the world.
The martial arts field is also full of corpses and scattered weapons. This place was once one of the battlefields, and there are more corpses than the door.
Because there are stone slabs underneath, thick vegetation can't grow here. At most, it is moss, so at a glance, there are undulating mosses everywhere, and there are corpses underneath.
"Logically speaking, with so many people dead and a relatively closed environment, ghosts will definitely be born."
It looks like this is outdoors, but in fact, this place is actually closed, just like Taoyuan Valley. You can't fly out simply by flying high.
Last time, the Liu family threw corpses into Taoyuan Valley in an attempt to corrupt Taoyuan Valley. Let alone whether their corruption can succeed, if left alone, all kinds of ghosts will soon appear in Taoyuan Valley.
And no one has come here for at least a thousand years, and so many people have died here. It is not surprising that the accumulation of resentment and negative energy has led to the emergence of several particularly powerful thousand-year-old monsters.
Li Chengxi said something that made Yang Yiyi a little scared, and then he changed his tone:
"But no, these are just ordinary corpses. Did you feel unusually cold, or suddenly shiver or something?"
Everyone said no, the temperature was still very humid and suitable.
"The negative energy level is not high. It may be that the valley itself has a purification effect, or it may be purified by some treasure."
When Yang Yiyi heard that there was a treasure, she remembered the main purpose of her trip.
"Speaking of which, this place doesn't look like a place with treasures."
Even Yang Yiyi realized that there were ruins everywhere, so where could there be treasures.
"Maybe we found the wrong place?"
Qin Yan pondered:
"Maybe there is more than one similar place in Erlang Mountain. We came into the Cloud-clearing Cave, and there may be other caves."
The only information about the location of the treasure that everyone had was the keyword "Cloud-clearing Cave in Erlang Mountain", and it was dug out from the leader of the Anxiang Hall.
There was obviously a group of people in Erlang Mountain who came in before Yang Yiyi and the others, but they were not found along the way. Maybe they didn't find the entrance to the Cloud Cave, or maybe they went to other places.
Thinking of this, Yang Yiyi was a little anxious, always worried that the treasure would be taken away by the bad guys first.
"Don't worry, the premise of treasure hunting is that you must have a correct mentality, otherwise you may fall into a trap."
Li Chengxi has never been in a treasure hunt, but he has played RPG games and guided Aoerdai and the others to hunt for treasures many times. It's useless to be anxious at this time, but you will miss key information.
"Go inside, this sect is quite large, maybe there are useful things behind."
Whether it's the wrong place or not, you have to explore here first, so as not to miss anything.
Everyone passed through the martial arts field, and then the main hall.
The main hall of a sect may enshrine the ancestors of its own sect, and it is generally only used in major events and will not be easily opened.
But now there is no need to talk about this rule, anyway, the main hall has collapsed.
There are almost no walls that can still stand, and the main hall is completely in ruins.
Everyone needs to be careful when walking through here, because there are too many gaps, and who knows if there are still poisonous insects and snakes hiding underneath.
After passing through the main hall, it is generally the living area of this sect, including dormitories, rooms, dining halls, and kitchens. There are also several small martial arts arenas. Things such as stone locks left nearby can still be seen in their original appearance.
Similarly, many corpses can be found in these places, but it is impossible to tell which one is a member of the sect and which one is an invader.
It seems that the battle here was very fierce back then, not only exterminating the entire sect, but even killing everyone.
The place that Li Chengxi wanted to find the most was actually the warehouse of this sect, such as the Sutra Pavilion, where there might be some treasures to turn over.
But as mentioned before, this place was obviously captured by someone. Wouldn’t the people who took over here turn the warehouse and other places upside down?
Facts have proved that there is no need to look forward to it. After walking in for more than half an hour, they did find a place that was suspected to be a warehouse or a Buddhist scripture pavilion. However, apart from the fact that these places themselves had collapsed, Li Chengqi used the ALT key to highlight them and found nothing. There was no loot that could be looted, and no keyhole was found to use the golden hairpin.
Going further back, you will reach the innermost part of the valley, close to the mountain wall.
Passing through the ruins, you can see a circular place, which is probably a martial arts arena. Not far away, you can see a clear spring flowing down from the mountain wall, forming a deep pool and a stream.
"There is a door over there, and there should be a stone room for retreat in the back mountain."
Qin Yan used a flashlight to shine a light on the stone door that was hanging on the mountain wall and made a rough judgment.
Li Chengqi no longer expected anything else to be hidden here, so he pressed the ALT key to take a look.
Seeing this, he quickly said:
"Something's wrong, there are more corpses around here again."
The places with the most corpses were the gate and the martial arts arena where they were first encountered. After passing the main hall, corpses appeared scattered here and there, not too many.
This is probably because people from the sect intercepted the attackers at the martial arts arena, and the two sides started a fierce battle. When they reached the back of the main hall, the disciples on the sect's side obviously couldn't hold on anymore, and the intensity of the battle also dropped a lot, so the corpses behind the main hall Relatively few.
But here, the corpses began to increase again, and it was obvious that something had turned these people into corpses.
Yang Yiyi couldn't see clearly from that side, but Li Chengqi's side could not only be highlighted, but from a bird's-eye view from above, he could clearly see that most of these corpses were radiating. With the circular martial arts field in front of the stone wall, Make a circle for the center.
It felt like a special bomb exploded, killing everyone nearby in an instant, leaving such a trace.
If someone didn't do it on purpose, it would be very weird.
